DID NOT RECEIVE THE FEES.
Spofford's Reply to the St. Louis
Music Firm.

Washington, Sept. 4-Regarding the
suit brought In St. Louis by Mrs Jessie
Beattin Thomas the wife of ex- Congress
man Thomas of Metropolis, Ill, against
music publishing firm of the former
city for failure to copyright two of her
songs, and the allegations of the pub
fishers that they had forwarded the nee
essary copyright fees to Librarian Spot
ford of the congressional library and held
his receipt therefor, Mr.. Spofford said
the fees in question had not been received
and he had of course given no receipt
Claims of like character were occasion
ally made and he had had trouble before
with the firm which is now being sued
To avoid these claims Mr. Spofford some
time ago began the practice of sending
with each copyright acknowledgment a
request that fees hereafter be paid by
checks on their respective local banks
These checks, when returned to the is
suers, were most desirable forms of re-
ceipts Ad there was less risk from loss
in the mails than when bills were sent,
often unregistered. Nearly all the large
publishing houses are now RENTING by
checks, even in such small amounts as
fifty cents. Mr.. Spofford said that not
outstanding penalty of 800 for the
unauthorized use of the copyright privi-
music, books and other publications in
circulation which were not registered at
the library, though claiming to be.

HEAVY DAMAGE BY FLOODS.
Railroad Bridges and Telegraph
Wires Washed Away in Mexico.

St. Louis, Sept. 4.-Dispatches from
Saltillo and other points in eastern Mex
leo say that section of the country has
just been visited by the heaviest floods
known for many years. The Mexican
National railroad has suffered heavy
losses, ten bridges having been washed
away north of Saltillo. Telegraph wires
are also down in that part of the coun-
try and great damage has been caused
to crops and property Official reports
of the havoc created by the mountain
rain last Friday in northeastern Mexico
prove the situation even worse than first
reported. Between Monterey and La
redo at least ten miles of telegraph wires
were washed away. and almost every
bridge was destroyed. The loss will
probably be not less than 100000. The
Mexican National railroad and the gulf
railroad and the Gulf railway are equally
crippled toward the east.

Flames Finished Her.

San Francisco, Sept. 4.-Fire has COM
pleted the destruction of the tank steam
ship Bawnmore, which was wrecked ten
miles below Bandon, Ore, on Aug. 49,
Twelve hours after she went ashore the
waves beat her down to starboard and
the water rushed into the cabin and
forecastle and got into the tanks. In
the after tank there was a large quantity
of lime, and as soon as the water reached
it the flames broke out. From tank to
tank the flames spread, and soon the
hull and iron decks were red hot. The
street cars, lumber and boats composing
her cargo were soon in flames.

LYNCHING EXPECTED TODAY.
Murderer Lane To Be Taken to Ver-

Frankfort, KY, Sept. 4.-William
Lane, who murdered the two Roden-
bangs at Versailles, and who was re-
moved here for protection from a mob,
will be taken to Versailles to-day for
trial and it is generally believed that
lynching will follow. The Nicholas peo-
pie swear that he shall not die on the
scaffold. Ever precaution is being taken
for Lanes safety which shows that the
officials are nervous. Heavily armed
guards will accompany him. Roden-
baug's friends claim that the courts will
not hang Lane and that a light sentence
to the state prison is all he will get and
that they propose to take the law in their
hands. Judge Bullock of Lexington
says that he will fight until killed to
prevent a mob from hanging Lane. The
Frankfort officials are prepared to re-
ceive any sort of mob A detachment
