this declaration ensued a controversy, in
which officers and members of the American
Institute OF Architects averred that the
Secretary was bent on antagonizing the
fundamental principles Of the statute an
accusation which the Secretary more than
once denied The Star finds It very difficult
to believe that Secretary Carlisle Is engaged
In pursuing merely an obstructive policy.
The Secretary surely knows how the people
OF the country feel upon this really impor-
tant subject and he cannot but have seen
long ago how very inferior was the archi-
lecture Of public buildings when compared
with that of structures erected by corpora
tons and private individuals. There cannot
possibly, therefore, be any force in the
statements Of those who would have It IN
derstood that Secretary Carlisle favors con-
tinuation of the system which has given to
the United States many public buildings
that could not with any hope Of success
enter into architectural competition with a
first-class barn. Not unnaturally the Sec
rotary may feel annoyed at Mr.. Burnham's
most recent epistles, but he should not per-
NIT a trifie of pique to obstruct the pathway
Of duty. The American people have spent
and will continue to spend large sums Of
money for the construction OF such edifices
dS their DUSiueSS has HeeQ lOT. " ny
these buildings be so ugly as to cause night
mare7 Art may be more expensive than the
forbidding commonplace, but it Is unques-
tionably moro valuable. The archaeologist
of two thousand years hence, who uncovers
and explores one of the average public
buildings OF today, will give our civilization
a low rating unless he is fully aware of the
causes - congressional and political - that
have combined to give US too many struc-
lures Of the cheap and nasty variety. Sec
rotary Carlisle will doubtless make such
representations to the National Legislature
as will in the near future result In sufficient
amendment of the law which he at present
deems defective. To have been the Secre-
tary of the Treasury during whose admin
istration purely mechanical government
architecture received Its death blow would
be a glorious record.

WAsHlNGToN, Oct. 25.-The smallpox
scare at the interior department. far
from abating, gathered force during the
forenoon and by the time the clerks
came back to work from their lunch at
noon, state of panic prevailed. The
case of Owens, q messenger, when it
became known, was the most serious of
all the smallpox attacks. Owens is
the messenger to the chief
clerk, and it was part of his
duty to distribute documents to
the several bureaus of the department..
In this way lie came into contact with
about every branch of the service under
Secretary Hoke Smith, and may have
been the cause of the spread of the dis
ease. DR.. Woodward, the health officer
of the district, made an urgent appeal
to Secretary Smith to close the entire
interior department in the interest of
public health, and in accordance with
the request an order was issued during
the afternoon closing every bureau of
the department..

Called to Help Combat the Disease.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Oct. 25.-A special
to The Times from Sturgis county says
a fearful and death dealing plague of
diphtheria is raging opposite Caseyville,
i'll Illinois, and coffins can hardly be
furnished fast enough with which to
bury the dead. Not fewer than 40
deaths have occurred within one week,
and it is not uncommon to bury two
children i'll a single coffin. The plague
has now crossed the Ohio and is cpl
demic at Caseyville and Mulfordtown,
having Teen brought thither by fam.
lilies from Illinois fleeing from its raw
ages. A number of dangerous cases
are developing there and all the schools
have closed. The community is in a
general state of alarm. Among the few
recoveries noted the victims have bee.
left blind Or paralyzed. A number of
physicians elsewhere have been called
to assist i'll combating the disease, the
local doctors thus far having been
powerless to arrest the epidemic.

as several of them We're known to have
had considerable money in their posses

fiends it is plain why they placed so
much of the explosive under the build

in the place in order to get the plunder
and then escape detection. So far no

A JAPANESE VICTORY.
Capture of Kin-Len-Chcng, on the Chimes
Frontier Confirmed

Capture of fKin-Lcn-Chcng, on the Chinese
Frontier, Confirmed.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 29.-The Japanese
legation has received dispatch which
confirms the news published in dis.
patches from Shanghai of a second vic.
tory of the japanese army under Mar.
shal Yamagata. The telegram is dated
Hiroshima and reads as follows:
Before dawn of Oct. 2G, our army,
under Marshal Yamagata, attacked
Kin-LenCheng, one of the important
strongholds upon the Chinese frontier
The place was defended by 10000
troops under Generals Lin and Song.
They fled after Offering only slight
resistance, and the Japanese forces
took possession of the Notifications
and the city. They captured 80 large
field guns, an immense quantity of
rice, food Of other kinds, etc., and more
than 300 tents. The Japanese loss was
20 killed and SO wounded The Chinese
lost more than 200 killed, the exact
number of their wounded is not known.
1t is believed at the Japanese legation
that the General Lin mentioned in the
above dispatch is the noted Chinese
commander who played such prom.
inent part during the Ton-King diff.
Guilty, and to whom it was recently
reported Viceroy Lii had offered the
chief command in the Chinese army.
The forces at Kiulen We're com.
manded by Generals Hong and Lin.
The Chinese occupy very strong posi-
ton at Hong Wang, the castle being
guarded by 10000 men. Troops are
being massed at Kin Chow with view
to the defense of Port Arthur. The
Japanese have completely blockaded
Talien- Wan and Port Arthur and all
the adjacent bays and ports. Further
Japanese forces have landed at Seikiofu,
southeast of Port Arthur.

NEW YORK, Oct. 31.-Major G. E.
Hibbard of this city has recently re.
turned from an extensive trip through
the Northwest and portions of the
Northern Pacific coast The most i'm.
portant news he brings was of the pro.
posed new Midland Pacific railroad,
over the route of which he travelled for
the especial purpose of getting lsnowl-
edge of that section of the country, in
order to make a report thereon to Can.
adian and foreign capitalists, who were
ready to invest in the new enterprise if
they should be satisfied of its feasibility.
Major Hibbard is now able to state
that the capital, both Canadian and
foreign, is satisfied, and that he has
therefore been able to enter into con.
tract with United States Senator R. F.
Pettigrew of South Dakota, for the
building of the Midland Pacific from
Sioux Falls, S. D., to Seattle and Ia
coma, Wash, distance of some 1000
miles. The success is thus assured of
what will undoubtedly be one of the
great transcontinental routes.
