WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE attention
OF General Attorney Olney was called
to statement In E telegram from
vinton. Iowa that Attorney u. ..
Sells has been instructed TO cancel
his campaign engagements Mr., OIL
ney said that Mr.. Sells had written
him on the subject OF his taking an
active part In the campaign, aud in re-
ply the following letter had been sent
him.
"lt Is contrary TO the rule of this
department uniformly laid down la
every case In which application has
been mAde-that district attorneys
should actively participate in politi-
cal campaign work"
IL WAS said at the department. Of
justice that substantially the same
replies had been sent to a number OF
district attorneys from all sections Of
the country who had written making
inquiry on the subject. and that the
rule stated by Mr.. Olney was an old
one from which there had been nc

MAKE NO MISTAKE.

Free homes and statehood are the
two great and absorbing questions
with the people--all the people-of
Oklahoma in the present campaign.
There are other important interests
involved in the election Of delegate to
congress, but the two questions
named overshadow all others. In view
OF this fact, which no one will dare
deny, it becomes at once plain busi-
ness proposition. 1t is not a question
of party supremacy or personal ag-
grandizement, but one of who can best
serve the people by securing for them
the things they want and must have
in order that the welfare Of the whole
territory and the prosperity of the
people may be subkerved. IL Is folly
T. expect anything along either of
these lines at the hands Of Mr.. Flynn
He has had the opportunity TO at least
manifest disposition to do some
thing for the people OF Oklahoma,
and utterly failed; nor could he do
anything ia the next congress In these
important matters were he ever so in
dustrious, for reasons too plain to
need repeating. As for Mr. Beaumont
he would find himself in n worse and
more embarrassing situation than Mr..
Flynn. because OF his party associa-
tions and the weakness OF its infu-
ence.
Talk is all right 10 its place And
nobody will deny that both beaumont
and Flynn can do that to safety. But
talk on the floor Of the house doesn't
secure legislation. 1t requires the
strong personal influence of the rep
resentative TO secure the sympathy
and cooperation OF the party in con-
troi OF the house. The people OF Ok
lahoma appreciated the force OF this
argumant when IL was presented and
urged by Mr.. Flynn two years, and
acting upon that idea they elected
that gentleman TO represent them.
lie persuaded the people that his
party, which was then in control of
congress and of the government,
would remain in control Mr.. Flynn
was in error, and the people made the
mistake Of accepting his statement
for fact. and eleeting him. They have
long since discovered the mistakes;
they still realize it, and 1t is unreas'
enable to suppose they win repeat it,
with the logic and facts of the situa
tion still before them.
Hon. Joseph Wisby is the only man
who can hope TO perform any substan
tial service for oklahoma; not that he
possesses such transcending abilities
above his competitors as an orator OF
debator, perhaps, but for his straight
forward integrity of purpose and cor
dial affiliation with the majority party
in congress and with the administra
tion. Voters, citizens, who desire the
great benefits that will come to thu
territory from statehood, and TO th'
people by free homes, cannot afford &
shut their eyes to the plain facts W
have stated and vote for any othe

Judge Scott Denss the Authority,of rive
Other District Judges.
OMAHA, Neb., Oct l7.-The unusual
scene Of one district judge defying
the authority of five other judges of
the district, sitting as a court, was
witnessed in Omaha, and is likely to
provoke some very peculiar situa-
tions before being settled. The case
of Editor Rosewater Of the Bee, who
is charged with libel by ex-Sheriff
Bennett to be tried by some Judge
other than Judge c. X. Scott, caused
the trouble On the editors appeal
to the other five judges they decided
to hear the case and cited the editor
TO appear at a. m. to-day for trial.
When Judge Scott was notified of the
Judges decision he declared that the
case could not be transferred
from the criminal branch of the court.
He then made an order multiplying the
action of the five Judges and ordering
Mr.. Rosewater to appear before him
at a. IN. to-day for trial. While
court was in session he said: "We
have now met the crossroads and
do not propose to take either side,
but, instead, | am going to tread
right in the middle of the road. Here
/ am, an American citizen 62 years
of age, and stand upon a broad gauge
platform that will permit me TO give

GUSTAV ROBERTS WEALTH
Allan McDermOtt Appointed Admin
strait of the Estate.

Allan McDermOtt Appointed Admins
istrator of the Estate.
Judge Hudspeth of the Orphans Court
has appointed Allan L. McDermott admins
TRAITOR of the estate of the late Gustav
Robert of Hoboken. When Mr.. McDermott
qualified he gave $4,000 bonds, Joseph
Warren and County Clerk Mclaughlin be-
ing the s~ureties. The administrator will
make every possible effort. to discover heirs
to the estate, which is believed to. be worth
S25, 900. An inventory has not been com
pleted yet, and the exact amount of the es-
tate is not known.
Robert lived in Hoboken about twenty
five years, and during that time he built up
aEprofitable wine business. He lived alone
and died in his wine cellar with no one near
him. He is not known to nave a single rela-
tive, although William Hesse. a real estate
agent, and two or three other old citizens
say they believe he has a brother and sister
in France. Mr.. Hesse says that he believes
the brother to be alive. He is not certain
about the sister, but thinks that if she is
dead she has children surviving her.
If the administrator fails to discover heirs
the property will be sold by him and the
proceeds will be paid into the Orphans
Court. The amount realized On the real
estate escheat to the State, and the proceeds
from the sale of the personal property will
go to the city of Hoboken.

HOBoKEN POOR TICKETS.
No Doubt Councilman Gave Them t,
Favorites.

No Doubt Councilman Gave Them to
FavOrites.
Mayor Pagan daily receives complaints of
the manner in which the poor fund is dis
tributed. He is determined to investigate
the complaints as soon as he gets an oppor
tunity.
Before the city storehouse was established,
one letter declares, written by a lady, per-
sons went to one grocery store in particular,
presented poor tickets valued at So, and re-
ceived in value fancy groceries. One well
dressed woman, who had a poor ticket,
called for a barrel of flour at one grocery
store. The proprietor answered that it was
worth more than SO. The woman said she
could pay the balance and exhibited a large
roll of money. One man whom she saw, pre-
sented a ticket and received some packages
of flour. Afterwards he sold them for
twenty cents each and purchased whiskey.
The Mayor has bushels of letters of a sim
liar sort, complaining of the system as it
was and as it now is, with the s~torehouses.
When the tickets were presented at grocery
stores it was generally supposed that the
tickets were fairly spread out among
grocers.
One of these dealers located at Fourth and
Greene streets has sent within the past year
a bill of groceries to the council amounting
to $500. The total appropriation to the poor
is s. 5000, or 1880 for each month.

Mr.. Thomy La Fon, a Roman Catholic
colored man of New Orleans, who died re-
Gently, left an estate worth about $500, 600.
Over 100000 of this he distributed among
the educational nd charitable institutions
Of that city. He also provided for his own
relatives and for the widows of a number
of his former personal friends. Among his
gifts were $1,000 to New Orleans Umver-
sity of the Methodist Episcopal Church,
and also a gift of a block OF ground, con-
tanning twenty-five lots, and $4,000 in cash
to the Old Peoples Home, which is also
under the direction of the Annual Confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
In company with Brother Mason, our field
agent, l remember a delightful visit to the
old gentleman about two years ago, in which
we discussed the educational work of the
Freedmen's Aid and Southern Education So
ciety IN the South. He manifested great in
terest, and has given a practical illustration
of that interest. Would to God that the ex-
ample of this Roman Catholic brother in

piled with porcelain lined bathtubs and
toilet rooms with the latest improved sanl-
tary arrangements.

spring mattress, and the bed Inen ana coun-
terpanes are of snowy wilderness.

ception of the sick pupils are as comfortable
as it is possible to make a sick room, and
the patients receive the very best nursing.
The Fairgrounds for both boys and girls
are large and ample, and passersby on al
most any fine afternoon will see the boys
deeply interested in a game of foot or base
ball.
The grounds of this institution are bounded
by Chestnut avenue on the west, Kent stSeet
on the south. Division street on the east, and
Hamilton avenue on the north, this being one
of the most valuable plots of ground in the
old borough.

STATE TAX COMMISSIONERS.
Called Upon to Act Upon a Number
of Appeals.

~
The State Tax Commissioner had a busy
day yesterday hearing appeals from the
local assessors. In the morning Jersey City
cases were heard. while the afternoon was
taken up with appeals from Bayonne owners.
Among the Jersey City appeals were those
of Dodge and Company and the Marion
Watch factory. While there may be grounds
for thinking that the assessment in the
Dodge matter are too high there are lone in
the factory case. The law officers OF the
city view the proprietor of that buildings
request as a piece of unmitigated cheek.
Here is a building and plot of ground as
sessed at S56, 900, which only a short time
ago could nave been sold for 100000 n
yet the owner growls at his assessment. The
commissioner will determine the matter on
Tuesday e in Trenton.
The Morris Canal and Banking Company
was assessed in 1891, 1856, 600; in 1892,
100000, and in 1898, S165,000. 1t asked to
have the 1892 valuation made the same as
the preceding and succeeding years. The
reduction was made.
The next case was that of the property on
the corner of Grove and Montgomery streets.
used formerly as a synagogue, but now the
barracks of the Salvation Army and owned
by VIM. N. Barrow. The frame building
was assessed at S12, 900 and its owner asked
for a reduction of $1,000. The commission
ers allowed this because the brick property
on the opposite corner and apartment house
also opposite were each assessed at $1,000
John Shea of Palisade avenue, whose pro-
perty was assessed at $4,000, had a reduction
allowed of $1,000.
John Rugge, Brunswick street, Lot 80
Block 1853. was assessed at 1000. This was
reduced to $1,000 on the ground that the
assessors had assessed the wrong property.
Five lots, owned by John Morgan, marked
Lots 1, 9, 3, 4 and 5 Block 1896, assessed at
5000 each, were reduced to $3.50 per lot.
Appeals in the cases of Robert p. Percy.
J. L. Cadmus aud Isabella Lamb were laid
over to enable these owners to procure legal
advisers.

FAIRVIEW TEEsTLE ACCIDENT.
The Inquest Continued Last Night
Contractors story.

The Inquest Continued Last Night
Contractors Story.
The Coroner's jury Investigated further
last evening into the Fairview trestle acct
dent, at Holstein's Hall, Hoboken. Employees
of Broadhead & Hickey, the contractors of
the structure were heard.
Jacob Cartright, Superintendent of the
tunnel there, said he had noticed the piles
holding the trestle settle numerous times,
but thought if they were braced they would
have held. He had thought the trestle Sc
cure.
Nelson Campbell, Superintendent of the
construction of the t~restle, said he had no
idea what caused the piles to sink, although
he had known that they did. He said the
piles were driven to good foundation in most
cases, although it mostly depended upon the
resistance encountered.
E. Stafford, an expert engineer from Fair
view, said he had examined the structure,
and had thought that it was safe as an up
right structure generally is. On meadow
grounds, as this was built upon, it is a COM
mon thing for the foundation to settle. He
said the advancing and receding tides helped
wash the dirt foundations away from the
supports. If the whole had been braced it
would not have saved it, he said. The side
was braced, and that went in.
James Duffy, employed on the gravel
train, part of which went over, did not see
the accident, as he had been sent away a
minute before. Joseph Carroll, brakeman,
said he was in the second car and put the
brakes On when he heard a shout. He re-
ceived no instructions from the foreman in
general.
The foreman customarily orders the brake
man, vino notifies the engineer. This was
not lone. Others who testified were Harry
Hanze, brakeman, and William Platt, fire.
man.
The inquest was adjourned until tomorrow
afternoon at three o'clock.
