A director OF the Tennessee Coal
and Iron Company, describing the
system of convict labor employed
by that corporation-probably the
largest utilizers of such labor in the
country-tells a reporter of the
Journal of Finance that there are
many men of notable histories,
dragging the chains and ball in the
coal and iron works. One such is
A. W. Still, who was twice lieuten-
ant governor of Nevada, and who
came very near being elected to the
United States Senate at one time in
his palmy days, when he was rich
and ranked among the millionaires
OF the west. He is now 81 years old
and was sent up in 1888 for obtains
ing money under false pretenses.
The newspapers were full of his
arrest and trial at that time. The
ex-governor also has the reputation
Of being one of the shrewdest ma
nipulators Of counterfeit money ever
in this country. 1t is said as the
agent of mammoth counterte;ting
company he was sent to Europe with
!
a big trunk of spurious money, and
that he managed 10 dispose of a
large amount of it. lie is finely

WHEN IS A DOG PROPERTYe


A Kentucky judge has made stir by
his decision in dog case. The decision
was given in the case of John Doubler. who
was charged with stealing mastiff belong
ing to John Doewer and valued at. 500
and selling him afterward to Theodore
Schwartz, Jr., for $40. When $the case
came up in the Circuit court Judge Jack
son gave peremptory instructions for ac-
quital on the ground that there is no prop
erty in dogs unless they have been proper
ly registered. Both State and city licenses
had been paid on the animal, but Judge
jackson held that this did not constitute
ownership.
The decision has caused good deal of
excitement among Kentucky dog owners.
They claim that it leaves their pets at the
mercy of thieves, and arrangements have
already been made to carry the question to
the Court of Appeals. Their attorneys
say that the question was settled in the
case of the Commonwealth against Halle
waod, 1884, Kentucky. reports, where it
yssheld that tdogs were property indie
pendent Of registration. The statute of
1866 makes dogs assessable and taxable,
and they claim that this constituted them
property. Another point they make is
that the general statutes use the word
"owner" in the clause making him
liable for all damage done by his dog.
If poor man in Kentucky cannot own
dog without lot of legal rigmarole his
lot is indeed hard.

And still they go. One after another of
the endowment associations with high
sounding titles is found to be failure.
One of the latest collapses is that of the
Fraternity of financial Cooperation, which
for time had its headquarters at Philadel-
phia and afterwards moved to Wheeling,
where the law is more lenient toward such
schemes, is now closing up it's business at
fifty cents on dollar. This concern has
1000 members in Cleveland, many of whom
have paid in from $50 to $780, The promise
was to pay $3.50 in six months for dues of
$57. 1t was found some time since that
this could not be done and the amount to
be paid was reduced to $10O and later to
$50. The latter is less than the average
total of the assessments. A man is now
in Cleveland offering to buy certificates
for SIT on which $50 has been paid. He
explains that the failure is due to the fact
that new members have not come in and
that the lapses calculated upon have been
few
1t was long ago pointed out by those
who had investigated these schemes that
there would not be members enough to
keep them going long. A great many in
nocent people have been taken in by them,
but they are fast going to pieces now.
