THE PENITENTIARY AFFAIR.
Governor McGraw Talks OF Coblentz'
Defalcation.

DefaIcation.
CHEHALIs, WASH, December 12.-Gov-
ernor McGraw returned from Walla
Walla to Seattle tonight. Speaking of
the affair at the penitentiary, he said the
amount of Coblentz' defalcation might
not exceed $4,000. The private MEM
oranda kept by the superintendent of
the factory and the superintendent of
the warehouse after they began to sus-
pect crookedness will probably enable
the directors to estimate with tolerable
exactness the amount Coblentz converted
to his own use. The Governor does not
accuse Woodlake and enberry of be-
ing CoblentZ' accessories. He says no
inducements were held out to these men
TO talk, but they were given an opportu-
nifty. The Governor says that as far as
he has been able to discover Dusenber-
ry's actions were honest. Mr.. Bison,
one of the bondsmen, was at Walla Walla
yesterday, and stated his readiness to
make good his portion of the shortage
whenever ascertained. The Governor
denied that when he was Sheriff of King
county he filed written charges against
Coblentz, as stated by Tacoma paper.
After the killing of Deputy Sheriff Poor,
at the request of Sheriff Woolery, Poor's
friends had written to Senator Allen
asking for Coblentz's dismissal. Learn
ing this, the Assistant Attorney-General
protested that Coblentz was most use
iul man in the service of the district,
and at his instance wired Allen not to
heed the letter. He had no acquaint-
ance with Coblentz then. He appointed
him Warden on the recommendation of
the most influential Republicans both OF
King and Pierce counties.

WASHINGTON, December 10.-A num-
Der of Western representatives., includ-
ing Coffeen of Wyoming, Pickler of South
Dakota, Hermann and Ellis of Oregon,
Doolittle and Wilson of Washington,
McRae Of Arkansas, Caminetti OF Cali
fornia, Hartman OF Montana, Hall OF
Minnesota, and Wells and Lynch of
Wisconsin, have agreed upon series OF
amendments to the bill to protect for
estry reservations, which came up In the
House to-day, and went over by unanl-
nous consent. They will be offered to
the bill when it is called up tomorrow.
The amendments provide that Tor the
sole purpose OF preserving the living ana
growing timber in forest reservations
the Secretary of the Interior may eliml-
nate SO much only of the dead or ma
tured trees thereon as may be necessary
to preserve the remaining timber. The
Secretary is to designate, appralse and
advertise Tor sale the dead or matured
trees in limited quantities to suit the
purchaser. The proceeds of the asales
are to be expended in the care and man
agement of the reservation. Uponarec-
ommendation of.the Secretary of the In
terror and with the approval of the
President and after due notice any pub
lie lands embraced within the limits OF
any forest, which shall be found better
adapted to agricultural than to forest
uses, may be restored to the public do
main; and lands in any forest reserya-
ton, the character of which, may he
shown 10 be mineral, in accordance with
the mining laws may be restored to min
eral location and entry. Prospectors
and mineral claimants are to have access
to the forest res rvations for the pur-
pose OF prospecting, locating and de-
veloping their mineral resources.

David /. Kellam, charged with con-
spiracy in raising money by selling notes
obtained from H. Simons, President of
the Prosser Falls and Priest Rapids Ca

in the Tombs Police Court to-day. Kel-

for what he had done, saying he be-

AN OLD MATTER REVIVED.
Suit by a Surety Company Against a
Former Tacoma Man.

TACOMA, December II. - Four years
ago the Northern Pacific Express Com
pany was robbed of $1,000 package
consigned to Ritzville, Wash. About
the same time G. L. Jet, cashier of the
local office, was discharged. 1t was sus-
pected that he was responsible for the
loss by carelessness, but no action was
brought against him. Attorney A. L..
Hoppaugh of st. Paul and Hugh Childs,
general agent and inspector of the Ameri-
can Surety Company, are now in the
city acquiring evidence in the action that
has been brought in st. Paul against
Jett by the American Surety Company.
That corporation was on Jett's bond for
$50, 900, and made good to the express
company the loss Of the $4,000 package.
Jett is now prosperous, is living in st.
Paul, is employed as cashier in whole
sale house and is said to be possessed of
considerable property. The suit is
brought by the surety company as a
civil action against Jet for the recovery
of the 81, 900 it paid on the bond.

No More Receiving Shipa,

WAsHINGToN, December 8. - Orders
were issued to-day at the Navy Depart
ment to place the receiving ship Dale
out OF commission and to send her to
Baltimore for the use of the naval mi
litia. The Washington navy yard will
hereafter have no receiving ship, provi-
sion having been made for recruiting
seamen and gunners in the barracks
ashore. 1t is understood that this action
OF the department is to be followed by
similarly abandoning all the unpctur-
esque but historic old ships that are
housed over and made to do duty as re-
cruiting stations at the various navy
yards. No particular argument in favor
of retaining them has ever existed, al
though their officers drew the highest
pay, while their duty was practically
ashore,

NO FURTHER PROSECUTION.
Knox, Compton and Mullen VIII Not be
Brought to Trial.


Brought to Trial.
SACRAMENTO, Cal, December lit
is not likely that either Knox, Compton
or Mullen, members of the mediation
committee during the recent strike, and
who were indicted for murder, will ever
be prosecuted. There has been rumor
to that effect afoat for some time, and
the matter which gave rise to it has now
come to light. 1t seems that a suit for
100000 damages has recently been
brought against the railway company by
the wife of Edgar B. Gritfey, the engi-
neer who was killed in collision at
Davisville two years ago. The papers in
the case show that General A. l.. Hart,
who has been defending the strikers in
their trials in Woodland, has been re-
tanned by the railroad company to de-
fend them in this damage suit. There
is every reason to believe that besides
a money consideration as a fee in the
damage suit in which he was asked to
act General Hart demanded and re-
ceived from the railroad company an
agreement to the effect that the mem
bers of the mediation committee should
suffer no further prosecution for the part
they took in the recent strike.

IN TILLMAN'S DEFENSE.
south Carolina's Ex-GovernOr's Official
Integrity in Question.

COLUMBIA, S. c., December IL
Through a friend Ex-Governor Gilman
tonight gave to the press his defense
against the charges affecting his official
integrity, which were made by B. F..
Perry to a member of the South Caro-
lima Legislature few days ago. He was
accused of buying property largely be-
yond his means, and it was charged that
he had received and pocketed rebates on
whisky sold the State dispensary. A
certificate from the Clerk of the court of
Edgetield county shows that there are
recorded in his office 50, 600 OF mortgages
on Tillman's Edgefield farms. The Pres
ident OF the Carolina National Bank of
this city makes a statement that his
bank furnished $4,000 of the money Sc
cured by these mortgages, $4,000 of
which was furnished to pay for the plan
tation he has lately purchased. The
President of the railroad which has
brought the dispensary liquors into the
State makes denial of the statement that
his road gave or Tillman received a re-
bate on the freight. An agent OF the
Mill Greek Distilling Company of Gin
cinnati, from which Tillman bought
most of his whisky in an interview
states that his company gave no rebate
on it, the purchases being made at a
price which would allow no rebate.

NOW A PERSONAL MATTER.
Prospects of Duel Between Georgia
Legislators Good.

ATLANTA, December 1.-THE proba-
bility of duel between President of
the Senate Nenable and Speaker of the
House Fleming is the outgrowth of a
scene in committee room Saturday.
The registration bill passed by the House
had been hung up in the Senate, and it
was to expedite it's passage that Speaker
Fleming appeared before the Senate
Committee. In stating his case he de-
clared that the rumors current in the
capital were that President Nenable had
bargained with the Populists through
Senator McGregor, the Populist leader,
to kill the registration bill if the latter
would help him pass through the House
an assurances bill, in which he takes
great interest. The charge repeated by
so prominent person created wide
spread sensation. Both gentlemen, sur
rounded by their friends, are exchang-
ing letters, in which the matter assumes
a personal form. Senator McGregor vi
olentIy denounced Speaker Fleming on
the floor last evening.

CURIOUS COMPROMISE.
Settlement Effected by IA Liquor Dealer
with Government OfficiaIs.

with Government Officials.
SEATTLE, December pa curious
compromise has been made in case
where Aaron Jafte, one Of the proprie-
tors of the California wine house, plead
ed guilty before a United States Com
missioner to the charge of wholesaling
liquor without a government license. He
was accused of manufacturing and sell
ing, Wholesale and retail, a concoction of
his own manufacture purporting to be
the genuine whisky of well-knoWn
brand The conditions of the release,
which were complied with, were that he
should pay the government for both a
wholesale and retail liquor license from
September l to the close of the present
fiscal year; that he should also pay so
per cent penalty for not taking out Ii
censes; that he should give good bond
to the whisky manufacturers not to
counterfeit again either their product or
label and give up all labels printed, and
finally should pay the costs incurred by
the government in prosecuting the case.
The cost to him was about $500, but he
escapes heavy fine and perhaps i'm
prisonment. The settlement was made
between Jaffe's friend, J. p. Gleason,
Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue,
and District Attorney Brinker.

LANDS FORFEITED.

Up to It's Agreement.

Up to It's Agreement.
WASHINGTON, December II. - The
President has issued proclamation for
feiting to the United States certain lands
in the Sioux reservation in South Da-
kota, alleged to have been owned by the
Chicago, Milwaukee and st. Paul Rail-
road Company under an agreement be-
tween the company and the Sioux In
dams ratified by an act OF March 2, 1883.
The lands involved are three lots in sec
ton 10 and two lots in section 10, town
ship l04 north, range II west, covering
l84 acres, and $40 acres in ranges Il and
70 west in the same township in South
Dakota, the plat of which was approved
January A, 1885, by the Secretary of the
Interior. These lands were to inure to
the company upon the conditions that
it shall, within three years after the act
takes effect, construct and put in opera
ton its line of road as provided for in
the agreement, and due notice OF which
was made within nine months after the
act took effect. In case of failure to con-
struct the road it was provided that the
lands granted for right OF way, station
grounds or other railroad purposes
should be declared, by proclamation OF
the President, forfeited and shall revert
to the United States, and be subject to
entry under the provisions of the act.

The total number OF passengers car
ried were sos, 285, 446 passengers carried
one mile, 12,SS8 926,57S Number Of
tons carried, 57l ,855, 942; tons carried
one mile, 70426, pa, 800. In order to
show the volume of traffic for all the rail-
ways the figures should be increased IA
or ID per cent. To compare the density
of traffic with the previous years, these
figures are reduced to a mileage basis,
which shows the number of passengers
carried one mile per mile of line to be
st, 253, as compared with $500 in 1898.
That there has been an increase in pas
senger traffic regardless of the CONNER
cial depression is due to the unusual
amount of travel in July, August and
October, 1898, on account of the Worlds
Fair. The number of tons carried one
mile per mile of line was 40, 1913, as COM
pared with 551 ,232 for 1898. These fig
ures show the decrease in the volume of
freight traffic occasioned by the de-
moralization of business throughout the
country.
The net earnings available for the pay
ment of fixed charges and dividends was
1906, 21O, 1874, as against $3.50, 766, 707 for
the same roads for the previous year, a
decrease of $44, 555, 862. The dividends
paid were $62, 664 ,961, as compared with
$3.50, AGA, 1870 for 1898. Regardless OF the
decrease in traffic there has been de-
cline in rates during the year, the aver
age receipts per passenger per mile being
1876 cents, as compared with Z.lS cents
in 1898, and the average receipts per ton
per mile 866, as compared with S.78
cents in 1898.

HORTICULTURAL NOTES.

MONEY spent for good trees is well
invested If they are cared for after
setting.
II best Of all fruits are grown, there
is little danger Of overstocking the
market
In order to keep up supply Of small
fruit, plant several varieties which
ripen at different times.
RYE is good for young orchard and
II it is near the poultry yard will
furnish excellent winter pasture for
fowls
THROW dish water around fruit trees,
currants, gooseberries, etc, Coffee
grounds are said to be valuable when
put around shrubbery and towering
plants
For protecting fruit trees from rab-
bits probably the easiest and certainly
q very effective method IL to rub axle
grease on the trunk Or In the early
part of the season kill rabbit, cut 1t
open and rub the raw flesh on the bark.
If the winter is very severe this will
not save the trees. Finding the trunk
with straw, laths or screen ~ire is
effective
