SUGAR BOUNTY CLAIMS.
Secretary Carlisle Vexed nt the De-
lay of the Claimants.

Washington, oct. 17.-Secretary Carlisle
has become vexed at the inactlon of the
counsel for the sugar claimants and yes
terdal telegraphed Senator Nlanderson
that he would send Controller Bowler's
opinion in the case of the Oxnard Beet
Sugar Company to the United States
court OF claims by oct. p unless he
set a date when he would appear and
argue before the Secretary Of the Treas
ury the question of the jurisdiction Of
the controller of the treasury.
To-day Senator Manderson replied from
Omaha. Neb., that he hoped to be in
Washington and argue the ques ton by
Nov. 10 next and that he had sent a
letter by Mr.. Ham of the counsel ex-
planning the matter. Senator Manderson
says he has no doubt that Controller
Bowler had no jurisdiction In the sugar
case. He asserts that to send the con-
troller's opinion to the court of claims
for final decision without the consent Of
the claimants would be unwarranted by
law. Both points. Mr.. Manderson con-
tends, are unassailable, and he will so
hold in his argument before Secretary
Carlisle.

B. Plough, vice president and general

New York, and has number of railroad
interests. Mr.. Plough is at present in the

and ex-Gov. Merriam.
Atlanta, Ga, Oct. 17.-When seen to-
night Mr.. Conner refused to affirm or denv
the report that Mr.. Plough is to be gener-
al manager of the Central.
The rumor that a general manager for
the Central was TO be appointed created
a good deal of talk in Savannah, partic-
ularly among the employees Of the road.
Receiver Conner is in Atlanta and none
of the officers Of the company here know
anything about the matter. From what
could be learned there does not seem to
be much, IL any, foundation for the rumor
If such an appointment were likely to be
made Receiver Conner would be likely
to know il and would confirm il. Neither
Messrs. Thomas or Ryan gave any inti-
appointment. Co-Recefver HAYES of the
Central is president of the ST. Paul and
Duluth road and if Mr.. Plough were to be
brought to the Central there would hardly
be any reason for Withholding the an
nouncement of the fact.
