A Claim of S3O,O0O,OOO.
MRS. MILLAR's CLAIM AGAINST THE BA

MRS. MILLAR's CLAIM AGAINST THE BAL
TIhoRE AND OHIO RAILROAD COMPANY.
Mrs. Eliza Millar, of New York, on
Saturday placed in the hands of Rufus
Andrews claim against the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad and other corporations
for 10000 acres of land, situated in Ken
lucky and Virginia. The history of the
case, says the World, is as follows: Sin
| the early part of the war of 1912 John
Young, wealthy cracker baker, accu-
mulated large fortune by supplying the
navy, investing his gains in the wild land
of Virginia, Kentucky and Ohio. From
recent surveys made by j. Wise Norton,
of Philadelphia, it appears that among
the lands purchased by Mr.. Young arc
the following tracts: Two hundred acres
in kanawha county, having frontage
on the Kanawha river, through which
the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad runs !;
400 acres in Rich valley, Washington
county, near the celebrated salt works
and plaster banks of that locality; 1000
acres in Lewis county, w. Va, near the
county seat of Weston, through which
the Washington and Ohio railroad runs
1858 acres in WetZel county, w. Va, ON
Fishing creek 1000 acres in Ritchie
county, hear the Parkersburg branch of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, in the
very valuable oil region; 1850 acres
pateHttu III HarrlsoH county, on hughes
river; valuable tract of 1888 acres on
Maiden spring, fork of Church river
an immensely valuable tract of 1900
acres in Scott county, having five-mile
frontage on Eagle creek, and $1,000 acres
that lie in Owen, Scott ana Grant coun-
ties, in immediate proximity to the Ken
lucky Central railroad. Numerous other
large and small bodies not yet definitely
located will be surveyed in due time.
The surveyor meets with much difficulty
in pushing these immense claims, owing
to the numerous record offices having
been destroyed during the war, and the
many new counties that have been es-
tablished since the date of the patents
Mrs. Millar consulted Mr.. Charles O'-
Conor on this claim, who gave IA favor
able opinion and estimated the property
as being worth S30,00O,000, as it lies in q
rich ore and coal producing country.

A Communist Unenrthed.

The New York World has unearthed a
communistic curiosity in the shape OF
Edward Megg, machinist, an American
citizen and the leader OF the party which
during the Paris commune, shot Arch
bishop Darboy NJ. Bouieon, and the
priests who were in the hands of the
commune as hostages. He is at work in
New York machine shop and is promi-
nent in the communistic element of that
city. Megg says that he started with 100
men to La Koquette to assist in the exc
cution Before they reached the spot all
but thirty of the party became frightened
and ran away, and the thirty had to do
the work. Speaking of this exploitMegg,
says Il don't care to speak much Of
what we did. 1t might injure me where
l work, We just call for the men we
wanted to shoot, and we shot them, as it
Is customary to shoot men under such
circumstances. We took them out into
the yard and placed them face to the
wall and word was given and they were
shot, that's ALL" He says that the Paris
commune hated eX-Minister Washburne,
and that during the siege of Paris Wash
burne was acting as spy for the. Ger
mans. He claims that the commune in
this country is organizing everywhere in
the large cities, and that the now exist
ing elements of revolt among tho work
ing classes will be quickened into life if
these grievances ever become greater
than they can bear. Megg is the hero of
six murders. He was at Toulon awaiting
transportation to Caledonia for the kill
ing of an agent of police when the
French republic was declared, and he
was released by order of the govern
ment.
al we have to add to the above is that
we hope the French authorities will in
dict Megg for murder and demand his
extradition from the United States, and
that he will not escape on the pretense
that sHch murders as he is said to have
engaged in are epolitical offenses, for they
are not.

WAR MOST PROBABLE, BUT EFFORTS

people are awaiting the issue of peace or
war between England and Rnssia. Hum
dreds OF farmers are holding on to their
last years grain crops, expecting heavy
advance in the event of actual hostilities
The fact that thousands of horses are

the diplomats a good deal. But tn.

long been accustomed to treat as

Christians of Bulgaria or Bagdad and

the peace of the Europe was in no DANCER

turkey change her marketing place and
look toward the other shop than ENGLAND
discovers serious menace to the general
welfare OF the world. 1t is doubtful
whether Europe will sustain n nolicv

afford England an undisputed control of
these waters. 1t is certain that yietori.
