Paying for the Library site.

by the Treasury Department to the Ma

In payment for their property which forms
part Of the site for the new library.
Some of the property interested In
the settlements now being made have been
growing because the Interior Department
insisted on, what they thought, was too close
an inspection before the money was forth
coming The case of the National Metro
politan Insurance Company demonstrates
the wisdom OF Secretary Lamar In this mat
ter. The examination OF the case In the
Office of the Attorney-General brought to
light the fact that the company was In
debted to the District OF Columbia for
taxes upon the property, for which 1t was
to-day paid. or course 1t had to settle
with the District before 1t received Its
money from the Treasury.

The reported finding of large bodies of

The reported finding OF large bodies of
red hemalite iron ore. in Newton,
Lauderdale, and Clarke Counties, in
Mississippi, excites good deal OF in
terest. The discovery was made by
a negro, who had worked in the iron
fields at Birmingham, Ala. It is said
that the worlds greatest industrial
need to-day is a sufficient supply of
red hematite iron ore free from phos-
phorus for the manufacture of Besse-
nler steel. England and Belgium have
long been importing it from Spain,
where the mines are said to be in
course of rapid exhaustion. Besides
the German mines there are no other
extensive deposits known in Europe.
The supply of this ore heretofore
known in the United States was not
so large as could have been desired,
the Birmingham ore being better suited
for making steel by the basic process
than by the Bessemer method. Just
now, while the demand for red hema.
lite is being loudly proclaimed, this
reported discovery is most timely.

I have known Gen. Logan for twenty-five
years, and am familiar with his military career.

OF his ability as a soldier. ana high regard for
his character In every way. Since the
war l have known him more intimately
than did during the war, because we
were not thrown together In service Our
duties were in different fields When he was in
the Army OF the Tennessee neither Of Us had
emerged. so to speak, and I have known him
best since he WAS in congress. He had been
looked apon by the regular army men ae one of
the best soldiers tho war produced, coming from
the volunteer service. He had tho highest re-
spect Of Gen. Grant and his administrative
powers and control of men emit tiled him to high
rank as military commander.
WARM ADVOCATE
Gen H. Y. Boynton, who for twenty wears
past has been one of Senator Logan's warm
est defenders from charges made during
and since the war regarding his connection
with Gen. Thomas removal, and who has
idolized him as solder, sends the following
to the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette to-
night:
Gen. Logan is dead. Gen. Sherman excepted
the most popular Of the great military leader
whom the years had spared has passed to his
rest. In this hour those who haue known him
through tho many years Of his intensely active
career turn with m exalted pride to that part

A curious movement in Northern
Louisiana is the organization of anti.
miscegenation societies, whose object
is to prevent the intermarriage OF
whites and blacks. The method oil
these societies smacks of the old Ku.

negro women are to be driven out OF the

Many colored men are members of the
