a Supreme Court Decision That Acqoits
Eumberman stone, OF spokane.
WAsHrssToS CrrY, Oct. ga decision
of importance TO railroads in the far West
was rendered today by the United States
supreme court in favor of the contention
of the railroads. The Denver & Rio Grande
was sued By the United States for the
value of timber, stone and material taken
from the public domain and used in the
construction of its railroads in sections
remote from the vicinity from which
the material was taken. Under the act
of 1875. granting the railroads right-of-way
over public domain they were given the
privilege OF using materials on the public
domain, but il was contended by the
United States that this privilege was
timed so that the material could be used
only on that part of the road adjacent to
the place from which il was taken. Justice
Jackson. speaking for the court, said this
was too narrow construction of tina law.
and that there was no limitation as to the
part of the road on which the material
might be used, the only limitation being
that the material must come from lands
adjacent to some part of the railroads
right-cf-way. The court accordingly az
firmed the judgment of the Colorado cir
cult court.

been made in less than a day, had
taken three, and the falling mist had
continued almost uninterruptedly dur
ing the whole time, without appa-
rently becoming fatigued or getting

hungry wolves that had scented the
blood of the chase, than 10 have no
adventure that could afford real pleas
ure after it was over. As to the dif-
ference in time, we had to drive six
hundred and eight miles in the spring,
when the roads were heavy, before
commencing the real journey, and our
cattle were worn down by making
forced drives where they should have
recruited, and as we were behind the
tail-end of the emigration, our cattle
had to be content with rubbing their
noses against the stubs of grass that
those herd had eaten of, to satiate the
craving OF their hunger. But what
was worst OF all, it rained and. showed
most OF the time in the Blue Noun
tains, making the road slippery. In
one place we had to shovel off the
surface clay and make steps for the
cattle. The cold rain and snow chilled
the cattle so that their progress from
that on WAS very slow. Some gave
out and laid down by the road. Our
work-cattle all got through and came
out the next spring in fair order. 1

the start have not the least doubt
that we would have made record for
time that would have compared favor
ably with the best. As for being an

were, it was because being a small
party out OF reach of assistance, they
counted us free booty.

BLOBBS' BLUFF WAS CALLED.
HIS Wife Saw Through His Scheme
and Turned the Tables on Him.

1t was late when Mr.. Blobbs got up
the other morning, and he hustled
around his bedroom like a wild man.
When it came time for him to put on
his trouser. he plunged into a ward
robe and pulled down all the garments
that were on the hooks. Then, says
the Buffalo Express, he fell on his
knees and paved the pile over nervous
ly. He handled every garment twice
and did not find what he wanted. He
swore three separate and distinct oaths
and then shouted "Mary!'
There was no reply. Blobbs poked
his head out of the door and yelled
again MaryW
"What is it, dear?" asked some one
at the rear end of the fiat.
"Come here and get move on too" !"
Mrs. Blobbs came into the room.
Her face was flushed from breakfast
preparations, and there was some SCOT
on her nose. "What do you wantp
she asked.
"Where are them gray pants Of
miner"
"What gray pantsT"
"Them gray pants that's been hang
ing in that closet for two months"
Aren't they in there?"
"No, they amt in there. Now,
what have you done with them?"
"Were they gray with a red stripe in
them?"
"You know we'll enough that they
were. Don't stand there chewing
about them any longer. Where are

"Gray ones with red stripes" unused
Mrs. Blobbs. "I'm sure don't know.
Oh, yes, I do. too; traded them off to
man for a lovely kettle"
"You whatf" gasped Mr.. Blobbs.
"Traded them off for lovely kettle.
You didn't want them, did your
Mr.. Blobbs was so mad that he
frothed at the mouth. He raved and
shouted around the room. He kept
this up for ten minutes. Then he saw
that Mrs. Blobbs didn't care, and he
tried other tactics. "I'm sorry you
sold them," he said, "not because l
needed them especially, but because
you did yourself an injury"
"How so?" asked Mrs. Blobbs, in
terestedly.
"Why, 1 had $40 in one of the pock-
cts of those pants that 1 was going to
use to get you birthday present next
week. 1 kept it there SO l would have
no opportunity to spend it. Now,
aren't you sorry you sold the pants?"
"Oh. don't know" replied Mrs.
Blobbs, sweetly, for she saw through
the scheme Immediately. "You see, l
went through the pockets and found
the money. l went shopping with it
yesterday"

Thirteenth Annual Convention in Session
at Chicago.
CHICAGO, Dec. 12.-The 18th annual
convention of the American Federation
of Labor opened in the city council
chamber Over 80 delegates from all
parts of the country were present when
President Samuel Gompers called the
convention to order. There was ap-
parent a feeling among the Western
delegates that the honor of the presi-
dency of the organization, which has re-
manned in the East for several
years, should be conferred on a
Western leader, and gossip was
current in the convention hall
as to strong fight at the time of the
election of officers. A delegate high in
the order admitted that there was con-
siderable dissatisfaction among the
Western unions. A parade had been
planned, but because of bad weather the
idea was abandoned, and the delegates
matched from their headquarters to tho
council chamber without delay
w. p. Pomeroy welcomed the dele

will welcome your coming" said the
speaker, land will expect you to sound
to the nation the note of alarm and will
look to you for aid in their present des-

President Madden of the State Feder-
alton made short address and Presi-
dent Gompers replied to the speeches of
welcome.

CAUSE OF THE DELAY.
Why Minister Willis Failed to Restore thu
Hawaiian Queen.

Why Minister Willis Failed to Restore the
Hawaiian Queen.
SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 9.-The schoon-
er Transit, just arrived from Honolulu,
brings the following to the Associated
Press under date of Nov. 49,:
An interview with the members of
the provisional government during the
afternoon develops a determination to
stand on the defensive and take nothing
on trust until theSUnited States govern
ment is officially heard from either di-
rectly or through Minister Willis. In
the meantime troops will be kept fully
armed and reserve guards ready at a
minutes notice. Many Americans as
sert that no restoration shall take place.
The provisional government expresses
the opinion that the use of force on the
part of the United States would be
equivalent to a declaration OF war.
Resident Americans have at least 1900
.iifes and ammunition in private hands
which it would be impossible to seize
In Case of Restoration.
Those best posted say the throne would
not stand an hour after the withdrawal
of American troops. The theory of res
toration, however, will not be believed
here until the last moment. Should it
then prove true, serious trouble will
likely follow. This much is admitted
by the clearest heads on both sides.
From a source almost in touch with
the American legation it is learned that
the contingency which has caused delay
in Hawaiian affairs until Washington is
heard from is the fact that the provis-
ional government and resident Ameri-
cans would resist either compromise or
restoration

MADE A GREAT HAUL.
ROBBERS GO THROUGH A SOUTH
BEND BANK

While the Employees Were at Dinner They
Entered by Rear Window and Carried
on S15,OOO-St. Paul Bank Robbers
Found Guilty.
SOUTH BEND, Ind, Dec. S.-The South
Bend National bank, one of the largest
and soundest banks in Northern Indiana,
was robbed of over $3.50 during the
day. The bold deed was committed in
broad daylight, while hundreds of peo-
pie were on the street, and the robbers
succeeded in getting away with their
rich booty without leaving the slightest
clue. Chief Benjamin Rose was at once
informed and set his officers at work
Immediately, but up to this hour no clue
of any reliance has been obtained. Chief
Rose believes there We're no less than
four men in the gang and possibly more.
Cashier Myron Campbell remained at
the bank,
In the Heart of the City,
until all employees were gone. He then,
locked the middle door of the big vault
and left everything in the usual shape at
the noon recess. It was 15 minutes
after 10 o'clock when he left. At 10
minutes of l he returned, entering by
the front street door. He passed down
the corridor alongside the cashiers, col
lector's and other desks, and turned to
his left to enter the door back of this
line of continuous desks AS he was
about to enter the door, his foot struck
a chisel He picked it up, but thought
nothing of the matter, as the plumbers
had been in the building, and had
passed by where he found the chisel, ne
thinking they had dropped it. Ten
minutes later Assistant Cashier Brown
came in and Mr.. Campbell showed him
the chisel. Mr.. Browns
Suspis ions Were Aroused
to such an extent that an investigation
was Immediately instituted and the men
found rear window open, the back
door unlocked and the door between the
directors room and the countingroom
mutilated A rush was then made for
the vault. The door was as Mr.. Camp
bell left it. They swung it back and ex-
amined the safe within. A glance
showed that money had been taken, but
they could not tell how much. The po-
lice were at once notified, and when the
days balances were made up it was de-
veloped that the robbers secured $15,-
900. There is but little doubt that
the bank has been watched for several
days, perhaps weeks.

THE FlEND JAILED.

Anarchist Marchal Arrested For the
Chamber of Deputies Outrage.
PARIS, Dec. 11.-After day Of great
excitement following the explosion OF
the bomb in the chamber of deputies the
authorities have announced that they
have the bombthrower in custody. He
is an anarchist named Marchal and has
made full confession. News to the
effect that the bombthrower was In the
hands of the police was not confirmed
until official announcement was made
and now Paris will sleep easier and
await developments. Marchal, it ap-
pears, was among the injured persons
taken to the Hotel Dieu, the large hos
pital on the north of the Place du Apar-
Wis Notre Dame. Marchal soon
Fell Under the Suspicion
of the authorities, and, pressed by the
police, he decided to make full confes-
sion, and he did so, glorying in his das-
tardly crime. When questioned as to
his reasons for throwing the bomb,
Marchal replied defantly: 81 wished
to deal thoroughly dramatic blow at
the institutions of the country and
wished to cause great excitement.
endeavored to aim the bomb at M Dupuy
(the president of the chamber of depu-
ties). glory in the act, and I only re-
gret that my hand swerved and the
bomb did not explode near the mark. !"
This bold and defiant statement from
the lips of the bandaged prisoner caused
a sensation, even among the stern Off
cials of the law, who were
Accustomed to Startling Situations
and used to all kinds of surprises. There
was so much bitter hatred in the an
archist's tone as he delivered his def
ance and gloried in his crime that even
the public prosecutor started and seemed
to grow pale. Marchal in appearance is
a big blonde man with heavy NOUS
tache and hardened expression of coun-
tenance, which seemed to loom up with
a strange fire as he described with much
gusto how the bomb was used. He
seems utterly Indifferent. as to the con-
sequences of his crime and speaks of it
as though it didn't concern him in the
