LIVERPOOL. July 1.-The market du-
ring June was generally quiet, with the
exception Of one OF two sales Of con
siderable sizs. The make of Western
strips is large this season. although the
import may be late. Much Of it will
prove of o good dark quality. with
some extra largoaud fine; but still there
is long tail of thin, poor and common
nondescripts, the unsatisfactory posi-
ton OF which many stemmefs entirely
fail TO appreciate. Light color Is scarce
and i'm hurley too red and dear. The
planting i'm the West was curlailed by
n scarcity of plants to be had from the
beds. and the acreage Of some Of the
dark sections has been materially
encroached upon by the extended plant
ing OF hurley. However. snch OF 1t as
had been set out got fair start.

How Minor Actors Grow Famous.

Mrs. Madge Kendall in her racy theat-
rical sketches says: 81 have often been
asked whether actors who play minor
parts ~conspicuously well spring sudden
ly into more prominent positions. The
question reminds me of an incident which
occurred in a play by Arthur Sketchley,
the well known author of the Mrs. Brown
series. Hehad written a three act drama
called Blanche which my husband and
l, on a tour at the time, were playing at
the Alexandria theatre, Liverpool. The
plot was taken from an old French drama
and consisted of a woman being falsely
accused of poisoning her husband 1t
vas very hard work, l remember, for
three acts for every one in the play. In
the last scene, when the villain steps for
ward and denounces the heroine with the
words, You poisoned your husband. 1 saw
youputthe poison in the glass at such and
such a time a black man servant comes
forward and says 'LiarP l am sorry to
say that this was the only occasion for
genuine applause throughout the play.
So great was the success of the minor
actor that he Immediately jumped into a
most prominent position in the provinces
and became a leading man. Whether he
has kept his position till now l do not
know, for have lost sight of him New

An Important Decision.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-In the case
of the Northern Pacific Railway company
VS.. Randolph, Secretary Noble to day de.
cided that by failing to appear to oppose
final proof proceedings on the part of a
presumption or other claimant, a railroad
company does not forfeit any right which
the whole case made shows it to possess.
1t simply cannot insist on any further on
portunity to contradict proofs submitted,
NJ it has had its day" i'll court. but if on
those proofs themselves it still appears on
the face of the whole record that the com
pany has a prior or superior right judy
ment mist go accordingly.
This decision corrects tie widely prcva-
lent misapprehensi0n as to the effect of
the Forester and other cases. which
were supposed To inflct a forfeit of rights
upon railroad companies who tailed to ap-
pear at hearings.

A Report Which Will Proba-

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-The EUening
Capital says: THE report of Messrs.
Ewing, Campbell & Bruce, the commits
sion that investigated the pension Office,
though closely guarded by the interior de-
partment officials, Is gradually becoming
known. It is known that the report
takes up each r~eratiug case separately.
Stress is laid upon the fact that Deputy
COMMISSIONS Hiram Smith, Jr., received
over sc. 900 as a r~erating This action of
his comes in for severe criticism In the re
port. Whether Smith has returned this
: 5000 or not the report does not state.
Smith receives his pension at the Topeka
agency. Secretary Noble, IN view of the
report of the commissioner, has himself
questioned Mr.. Smith as to the facts at
tending rerating.
The report also condemns Squires
especially Tor his action in making the
cases special. 1t states that Sauires pos
sessed a stamp used By Tanner as com
missioner and affixed it to papers without
Tanners knowledge. The number of
such cases is very large. The number is
given aud Commissioner Tanner is crit
cised for his carelessness in thus entrust-
lux thc olncial ~pTcTORhtiNt 10 a meIe pr1-
vate secretary who violated the confidence
rcposed in him.
The names Of the pension Office officials
who caused themselves to be rerated form
u conspicuous part of the report. Several
were discharged at the time by Secretary
Noble and they now point TO the fact that
the one who received the largest amount
of all, Deputy Commissioner Smith, is
still in Office. A member of the board
who made the Investigation intimated to
a reporter hat the chief c~ulprits were still
IN position but would 1901 follow Tanner
into private life.
