Is He a Crook?

Milo Davis, who figured quite censpic-
uOusly 10 the building Of the Iron Range
& Huron Bay railroad as its chief engi n
eer, and In an endeavor to defraud the
merchants in this locality who furnish
cd supplies in building this famous rail-
road, is In trouble at Detroit.
After leaving the Upper Peninsula
Davis moved to Detroit and was suhse-
quently elected school inspector for the
city and was chosen chairman OF the
board. For some time there have been
we'll grounded suspicious that the board
was "boodling" In the letting OF con-
tracts, but 1t was not until last week
that these charges took definite form.
The board was about to let a contract
for furnishing school desks amounting
to about $40. 900, when The agent OF one
OF the concerns bidding on 1t put up a
job to entrap the inspectors in soliciting
and receiving brioes. in consequence of
which Davis and three other inspectors
were arrested and landed 10 jail ou the
order OF Mayor Pingree. They subse-
quently gave bail in the sum of S., 600.

peared and his whereabouts are un-

for his disappearance.
At last accounts Davis was still at
large, but Mrs. Davis had secured the
bondsmen against loss by conveying TO
them title to some property belonging to
her In California.

Usper Peninsula Land Decision.

The secretary of the interior has denied
the motion for review of Frank Donliu
and held his entry for cancellation, allow
ing entry for the same tract Of VIM. Drum
to stand.
In the case Of j. G. Sipchen against
l.. ID. Cyr and others the decision OF the
commissioner Is affirmed and the land
awarded to Sipchen.
Richard Olphert against Patrick OCon-
nell, motion for review denied.
Geo. b. Eames against M. j, Bourke,
motion for review denied and
Bourke's communication preof held for
cancellation. We think, however. that
this report Is erroneous. The
record at Marquette shows that Bourke
made homestead entry No. 6409 Jan. 4,
1892. He commuted aud received cash
certificate No. 1880. Eames offered
homestead application for the sSme land
which was rejected April is. 1892. and 1t
does not appear that any further action
was taken at the local Office, and 1t would
be unreasonable to suppose that the Sec
retary had over ruled the action of the
local office in accepting Bourke's prsof
without some evidence being taken to
show the iilegality OF his eutry.

Two Mad HORSES.

DRIVER BADLY INJURED.
Women and Children Have Narrow
Escapes From Being Struck.

A terrific runaway occurred shortly
before o'clock last evening. A two.
horse coal team driven by Michael Kelley
was coming down Main street near the
foot OF Broad street, when q trace became
unfastened from the whiftietree anu fell
striking one OF the horses on the legs.
This started the animal and then the
atner horse took a notion to run. They
dashed across the street and up on the
sidewalk In front OF ii. o. Barney's, mar
rowly missing running over a woman.
The lady, In her efforts TO get out of the
way, fell and the wheels passed within a
few inches OF her head. The team turned
up North Union street and into Summer
with the driver trying to control them.
He was unable to do so and at the
corner of Summer and High streets he
was thrown from his seat and stru sk on
the sidewalk. The team ran down High

DREADED TYPHOON
May Keep Chinese and
Japanese Apart.
WORLDS OLDEST lRONCLAD
Shown to Have Been Originated and
Owned by the Coreans.

wAsHNGToN, Aug. Elm speaking Of
the probabilities Of the pcnding war be-
tween China and Japan, an official OF the
japanese legation recalled that the season
Of the monsoon and the typhoon Is now
rapidly approaching. The presence of the
former Is not regarded as a menace 10 SEQ
maneuverng, but fear Is felt of the latter.
The typhoon Is q revolving windstorm,
whose effects are disastrous. 1t IL believed
by the officials OF the legation that the
naval movements during the typhoon sea-
son, at least, will be somewhat ciroum-
scribed.
1t Is believed the Chinese will not VEN
ture great distance from their coasts, but
will keep close to port. japan, 1t Is
thought here, will wage an aggressive war
against China. and some Of her objective
points, In all probability, will be the Chi
nsse ports. Already reports have reached
here Of high gales of the Chinese coast
that have compelled all craft, but the
staunchest steamers, to seek shelter In
port. Naval officers say that when the
dreaded typhoon sets In there is nothing to
do but run for It.
When vessels are not sunk by the ty-
phoops. they are frequently driven far out
of their course, so that IL will be seen that
naval operations between Japan and
China are likely to be conducted at great
risk. For this reason operations Of the
fleets probably will be restricted to min
imum.
A Curious Fact
has been developed from researches In the
records Of the naval intelligence bureau,
throwing some light on Corean seaman
ship, and tending to shake our confidence
In the belief that We originated the iron
clad warship. A special report made by a
naval officer on Corean naval resources In
1883 saysi
~'The old Corean navy consisted OF junks
armed with grapncls, punching pixies and
small firearms. A present there are no
vessels equipped for war purposes at all.
During the war with the Japanese In 1919,
an iron turtleback was used against the
Japanese wooden junks. From the ports
under the turtle back grapnels were thrown
on the Japanese junks which were then
capsized or sunk, having holes punched
IN them. The ironolad used Is still In ex-
istence at Yong Yong. II Is one Of the
oldest, II not the Oldest, ironclads In the
world"
What Van Hennekin Thinks.
A letter was received In this city from
Lieutenant Colonel van Hennekin, who
was ON the transport Kow Shing when she
was sunk by the Japanese torpecoes. 1t
was written in June, and the colonel said
the war was inevitable because the
Japanese were determined to have one.
The Chinese were reluctant, he said, and
be anticipated Japanese victories at first
because Of China's lack Of preparation.
But In the end, whom the Chinese were
fairly reused, they would certainly and
slowly overwhelm their adversaries, he
