DIR. GLENNAN DID HIS DUTY
In Rescuinq His Children from I'm
moral Surroundings.
JUDGE MILLER'S FIRM STAND
Ee Dismisses the Case Brought BY the
Boarding-hOuse ownor - Correspondent
silling and Mrs. Glennan Subjected to
scorching Gross examination.

SIN this District man can kill thief who
enters his house to steal even fifteen cents.
but he has no right, unfortunately, to protect
tnat which is dearer to him than life itself
his family. If he entered the Twelfth street
house TO rescue his children from immoral
surroundings it cannot be construed into
forcible entry II was the fathers duty to re-
cover these children at once. The case is dis
missed"
These words, delivered in Judge Millers
most emphatic manner, marked the con-
cluslon OF the Glennan forcible entry case in
the police court yesterday. Previously he used
words almost as outspoken and vigorous, aud
the two instances produced a profound i'm
preston upon the parties TO the action and
the crowd in the courtroom.
The information charged DR.. Arthur Glen
nan, of the Marine Hospital Service. Private
Detectives James A. and Daniel McDevitt
and Douglass Taylor, with forcible entry in
breaking into the clearinghouse of Thomas
McGowan, No $40 Twelfth street northwest
The purpose of the entering party was to Sc
cure possession of the two boys OF DR.. Glen
nan, who were in the custody OF their mother,
as well as TO procure evidence to be used in
the divorce suit brought against Mrs. Glen
nan by her husband.

peared for the government, while the defend
ants were represented by Raiston & Siddons,

Donaldson, and Crede NJ. Fulton.
AROUSED BY THE GREAT NOISE.
The first witness called by the prosecu-
ton was Oliver Emory, who lives at the Nc
Gowan clearinghouse. He testified to the
noise made by the entering party, but could
not identity any of them. Percy Towson, an
other boarder. SAID that on the night of Octo-
Der !, between y and ! o'clock, he was
aroused by great noise in the hallway.
Going TO the door of his room he saw a man
holding Mrs. Glennan, but could not recog-
nize him. There were three other men in the
party. and the door Of Mrs. Glennan's room
was broken open
Richard Sheyer lives next door TO the
boarding-hOuse Of MCGOWAN. On the night
OF October J. he saw four men il front of No.
SO As they entered the front door he rec
ognized young AIcDeyitt and Taylor. few
moments later he heard a womans voice uD-
stairs crying out something about her chill
dren. He then saw the four men come out
of the house. They were carrying the two
children IN their arms. The latter were clad
only in their night garments. The party then
entered carriage and were driven rapidly
away. Witness did not know whether the
front doors were broken open by the invading
party.

In his speech in the Senate yesterday,

In his speech in the Senate yesterday,
Senator Hill did not attempt to conceal
his hostility to the administration. He
criticized without reserve the selection
of Gresham, charging that the blunder
of the administrations policy in refer
ence to Hawaii was due to his presence
in the Cabinet. He blamed the Presi-
dent for not calling the special session of
Congress sooner, and he sharply ar
ralgned him for attempting to dictate to
Congress revenue measures by suggesting
in his message tax on corporate in
comes. Hill is opposed to radical re-
duction of the tariff at this time. hold
ing that it would be destructive to the
industries of the country, and would re-
suit in a deficiency of revenue for the
government. Above all, heis opposed to
the income tax, which he objects to on
the ground that it is un-American, une-
quail and difficult of collection.

THE STATE BANK TAX.

Awhile ago it was believed the danger
of the repeal of the tax on State banks
with consequent revfvalsof those in
situations had passed. But the failure of
the seigniorage bill which has put an end
to the hopes of the cheap money men OF
getting further issue of the white
metal, has revived it. If they cannot
have silver then they will have bank
notes. This they appear to have practi-
cally determined upon. The committee
on banking has been about equally di-
vided on the subject, and as there is
little prospect OF getting bill from
them, caucus of the Democrats of the
House has been called for today to
consider the subject. The opponents of
the repeal of the tax are certain to be at
a disadvantage, for the Democratic
national platform recommended repeal,
and to oppose it will be to oppose what
the Democratic party recommended.
Probably the most the opponents can do
is to secure some conditions which will
make the revival of State bank cur
rency less dangerous than it was under
the old practice. Some sort of supervis-
ion by the national government will be
sought. But the cheap money men are
likely to oppose this because they have
been taught by experience that the con-
troll or supervision of State sbank issues
by the present administration will defeat
their purpose, which is TO secure cheap
money and plenty of it. The South will be
likely to oppose such supervision also
on the ground that it will be an inter
ference with State rights. A section that
has bitterly opposed any supervision OF
elections by the national government
even when representatives to Congress
were to be chosen will hardly consent to
have it's banking institutions put under
Federal control. Indeed as between the
repeal of the tax on State banks coupled
with the condition of Federal supervis-
ion and non-repeal the South would
probably choose the latter. If repeal
should be decided upon by the Demo
cratic caucus and should pass both
branches the President would be in an
unpleasant predicament. The platform
which he endorsed and on which he
was elected specifically recommended
the repeal of the tax on State banks.
To veto such bill would therefore be
to repudiate the Democratic platform.
On the contrary to sign such bill I'M
less 1t were accompanied with conditions
that would practically defeat its purpose
would be to inaict much more harm
upon the business community, and
shake public confidence much more Sc
verely than to. have signed the seignior-
age bill.

MAGAZINE NOTICES.

The April Century makes new de-
parture in printing story told wholly
in, pictures. The artist is Andre
Castaigne, whose Worlds Fair pictures
and other drawings for the Century are
we'll known. The subject is the course
of the emigrant From the Old World
to the New, and the scenes represented
are typical experiences, In the Fields of
Old Europe, Hard. Times, On the Deep,
The Land of Promise, ETC., A notable
feature of the April Century number is
a Story by Elizabeth Stuart Phelps,
entitled The Supply at Saint Agatha's,
which is likely to attract the same sort
ened by The Gates Ajar. The fiction in
the,num Der includes also the third part
of Occur d'Alene, Mrs. Foote'S story of
Western mining life, and the fifth in
stalment Of Mark Twain's Puddnhead
Wilson, the former accompanied by Illus
trations by Mrs. Foote and the latter by
striking full-page drawing by Louis
Loeb. The detective work in Mr.. Glenn
ems story is farther developed, the twins
begin to lose caste, and their is dra-
matte incident in the life of Roxy,
caused by the perfidy of her son. In the
nature Of revelation to most readers
is the article in the April Century on
Comet Finder CIV. R. Brooks, Of
Geneva. N. W, written by Frank W.
Mack, and illustrated with views of the
comets discovered by Mr.. Brooks, who is
nerhaps better known to the astronomi-
cal world.as.." The Red House Astrono-
irc1y nnva1 intnract q1S0
attaches to Mr.. John G. Nicolay's paper
on Lincoln's Literary Experiments, be-
ing in the nature of advance sheets of
the forthcoming volumes of Lincoln S
Speeches and Writings. Mr.. Nicolay in
cludes.a considerable amount of hitherto
unpu blished material, including lee
tura and verses written by Lincoln. This
article has the advantage of being in
field hitherto but scantily reaped.
The April number of the New England
Magazineswill prove especially attractive
to all who are interested liz dramatic
matters. Everybody has recognized the
great Importance of Henry Irving's in
fuence upon thesAmerican stage in set
ting before us a vastly higher and more
thorough standardsof performance; but
no one has discussed this so carefully OF
so well.as Mr.. Ball in his article on the
subject in the current New England.
| The article is fully illustrated, and will
be highly valued by all who have seen
| Mr.. Irving and Miss Terry this winter.
Of very great interest too is the bright
article entitled Shakespeare for Young
People, which tells. with the help OF
pretty illustrations, OF the pleasant ex-
| nerience in an out-of-doo production OF

TIE BIGGEST INDIVIDUAL CON-
TRA0T EVER LET IN FLORIDA.
The Hitherto Hidden Cypress Swamps
10 Yield Up Their Treasure.

The Hitherto Hidden Cypress Swamps
to Yield Up Their Treasure.
Mr.. I. r. Richards, of Gambler, who
knows Florida wet and dry, as no
other man knows it, having travelled
all over it time and again, and selected
and surveyed lands for the F. G. Il +.
r. r., and Florida Southern railroad
for years, came out of the Ocklawaha
cypress ~wamps Wednesday, where
b - npany with J. J. McTAvish,
have been spending the past sixty
days in estimating cypress timber.
The tale he told the Banners re-
porter is one Of immense magnitude,
and means much 10 Marion county.
It means this: Mr.. w. n. Smith,
of Saginaw, Mich, has million dol
lar contract with the Wilson Cypress
Lumber Company to get out 200, ,O00,-
900 feet of cypress logs, for which Mr..
Smith is 10 receive $500 a thousand
feet.
To secure this immense amount of
lumber Mr.. 8. has constr u"ted steam
lighters, equipped with 1000 feet of
wire cables, with which the logs are
dragged from the swamps to the
river. Each cable clears circuit of
10 feet
Besides his own plant for securing
logs Mr.. Smith has sub-let contracts
to number of persons with smaller
plants.
The inspectors lowest estimate
placed Oh the cypress timber on the
Ocklawaha and Silver Spring run fall
In Marion county, are 25D,0O0,0OU feet.
Tue finest and larg' st timber seen was
on the run and barely five miles from
Ocala, aud calculated to cut 0U0 900
of feet to the 10 acres, or $4,000, feet
to the acre, while the average will
be ,0O0,GO0 feet to the forty or 25,000
feet to the acre.
A valuable feature of this immense
contract Is that in the disbursement of
the 81 ,UO0,0 600 uine-tenths of will be
paid fol labor done in Marion county.
Mr.. ] J. cIavish, whoassisted Mr..
Richards, is from the big lumber Sec
tion of Saginaw, Mich, aud an e>!'ert
in his line, and has tr .Veled The world
over in his business and says the cy-
press inspected b, ais anything he has
ever seen.
The Wilson Lumber Mills, which
are now located at Palalka, where the
logs of this contract will be Ri ped into
lumber and shipped TO all parts Of the
world, were formerly in the lumber
business at Saginaw, Mich before
salt superseded tile lumber interest ot
that Wolverine sovereignty.

A Well Known 0oala Firm Changes.


We beg to call attention to the
change In the firm of Waterman &
Fuller to that of u. r. Waterman 4
Co.
The change will not materially ef-
feet the general business of the firm,
as the name of our popular young
business man at the head will attest.
Mr Waterman, will, as heretofore,
manage the details of the business and
have general supervision over it, and
The marked success and popularity he
has attained will assure the future of
the business.
The establishment has always been
conducted on the highest plan of bus
mess principles, fair dealing with an
eye to please its customers, and 1t will
he its aim to continue in the same
line 10 merit its already extensive pat
ronage, and endeavor to increa it.
The new firm will carry full and
most complete line of mems furnish
ings of every description, and will try
to make their already well known
tailoring establishment second to none
in the state.
The Banner extends its best wishes
for the success of the new firm, and is
confident the host of friends that have
rallied around Mr.. Waterman In the
past will not be unmindful of the cOu-
tidence they repose in him, but will
continue 1t with increased patronage.
