Impoverished land Is now 'vaccinated"

nitrogen than they take from the ground.
Where the nitrogen came from was the

Germany to hasten the growth of tho dis
ease by sprinkling the fields with soil in
which tuberculous crops have been grown
or with water in which they have been

The London "south End Mystery" to Close
With tho Hanging of Read.
1t is many months since London and
all England have been aroused to such
unanimous interest in criminal trial
rs that manifested in the solution of
what has been known since June last as
the south end mystery. A young mar
ried man in comfortable circumstances
named Read has been tried for the muir
der Of Florence Dennis, young wom-
an with whom he had improper rela-
tions. Her body was found in lone
some spot, and there was no direct evil
dence to connect Read with the crime.
1t was principally his reckless. unsup-
ported denials and the extraordinary
story of his depravity in many direc-
tions that finally resulted in his convio-
ton and sentence to death.
1t was proved that he was in the
neighborhood Of the murder when he
asserted he was 80 miles away. 1t was
also shown that he had similar relations
with several other women, and that the
murdered girl was about to become the
mother Of his child. Nevertheless the
evidence was not sufficient to convict in
an American court. and the prisoner
reaffirmed his innocence in strong Ian
guage before the death sentence was pro-
nounoed upon him. He will be hanged.

FEREANDINA, Fla, July 25.-The two masted schooner yachts Emma B. and Saucy Lass, with two Cuban patriots and a quantity of arms and ammunition, left this port yesterday. Six miles off the coast the yachts met the schooner Carrie E. Bucknam, which sailed from Kings Ferry two days ago, bound for the island of Gu racoa, off the northern coast of Venezuela. The yachts remained alongside the Buck nam long enough to transfer tho passen- gers, arms and ammunition, which the Bucknam will take to Cuba. The yachts left here ostensibly for the snapper fishing banks. They have not yet returned The transfer was witnessed by HarbOr Master Lohman through marine glass.

Do Not Deem It an Outrage.


 WASHINGTON, Sauiy 25.-The govern ment officials here have received no in- formation in regard to the firing on tho schooner Carrie A. Lane by Spanish war vessel off Port Antonio. The general opinion of naval officers who read the re- port of the affair as described by Captain Quick is that the Spaniard did not exceed his authority in overhauling the schooner if the latter was in the territorial waters of Cuba.
 The Spanish government, it is said, is menaced by the danger of the landing of filibustcring expeditions on the Cuban coast, and in cxerting itself to prevent such landings has right to overhaul and learn the character of any vessels within the threc mile limit that might be sus- pectcd of having on board those entertain ing designs against the government or a cargo intended for the insurgents.
 As Captain Quick story shows, he paid no attention to the man-of-war for an hour or more. This, it is said, probably caused the captain of the latter to believe that the schooner was engaged in filibus- tcring methods and prompted him to take decisive action in preventing her escape.
 One naval officer with whom reporter talked was emphatic in his declaration that the captain of the man. of war was
 
 assuming, of course. that the schooner was within the territorial limits of Cuba as it was the business of the Spanish govern mcnt to intercept any vessels that might be used by the insurgents.
 The Law of the High Seas. The right of a cruiser of one nation to know tho national character of any strange ship she may meet at sea is sustained by | writers on international law. It is held | that the party making the inquiry must make himself fully known in some way before he can lawfully demand such knowl. | edge from the other vessel. If this be re- fused, it is held that the inquiring vessel | may fire a blank shot, and in case of fur ther delay shotted gun may be fired I across the bows of the delinquent by way of positive summons. Any measure be yond the summoning shot which the com. l mander of an armed ship may take fol the purpose of asccrtaining the national l ity of another vessel must be at his peril. If any report of the affair be made tc | the state department, some steps will like | ly be taken by this government should the ] circumstances seem to warrant it. If the statement of Captain Quick that a solid shot was first fired directly at his vessel if sustained, it may make the case more | serious ono,
