Judge RanfOrd'S Wrath May be
Visited on Payney Cakes
and Rouse.

Seattle, Wash, Oct. 3.-Judge Han
ford has filed an order citing ex-Re-

cause why they should not be punished
for contempt.
New York, Oct. 3.-Judge Lacombe of
the United States district court for the

fused to confirm the appointment of the
new receivers for the Northern Pacific
Railway company or to accept the resig-
nation of the old receivers, Messrs.
Cakes, Payne and Rouse.
The application for removal of the old
receivers was made by Herbert B. Tur-
ner, representing the Farmers Loan and
Trust company, and G. G.. Reaman, who
appeared for the general reorganization
committee.
Gems Burnett and Bristow and Henry
Stanton, counsel for the Northern Pa
cltic Railway company, opposed the appl-
cation on the ground that the old receiv-
ers had not reported or accounted to the
court as ordered by Judge Jenkins to do
so monthly. The Northern Pacific asked
for pOstponement of the case owing to
the absence of Brayton Ives, president,

NEW RECEIVER, NAMED.
leigh Control in Wash
ingtOn.

Seattle, Wash, Oct. 2.-Judge Han
ford today refused to accept the resig-
nation of the receivers of the Northern
Pacific and removed them because of
failure to comply with his order di-
recting them to give an accounting of
their past accounts and to answer the
charges of Brayton Ives. Andrew il.
Burlelgh was appointed as receiver for
the lines in Washington.
The court fixed Burleighs bond at $780,
coo and directed him to take charge of
the company's affairs at once. When
marked that the old receivers had been
directed to file with this court new bonds,
to give an accounting of their past ac-
counts and to answer charges which had
been preferred against them by Rrayton
Ives as president of the Northern Pa
cihc Railroad company. Tie receivers
had resigned and therefore the bond was
unnecessary. 1t was the desire OF the
court to know whether or not the condi-
tons Of the order had been complied with.
Assistant General Counsel Bum of st.
Paul arose and said they had not been
and he was authorized to say that they
would not be. The court then said that
he would not accept their resignation,
but would remove them and appoint
Burleigh receiver.
President Brayton Ives filed new
and very sensational affidavit this morn,
ing, charging that Henry Willard, a
month before the Northern Pacific was
placed in the hands of a receiver, had au>
thorized his personal counsel to take
steps to place it in the hands of receivers
and had given it out that Henry 9.
Payne would be one of them.

sc RES OF LIVES LOST.
Repor- S Are Coming Into London of
Wre cxs at Almost Every


London. Oct. 2.-The intense heat
which has prevailed throughout Great
Britain during the past ten days, a state
of affairs classed as unprecedented in
weather records, eliminated yesterday
in a sudden drop of % degrees in the
temperature. This was followed by a
..eavy gale, which has already caused
much damage along the coasts. A dis
patch from Deal announces that two
steamers have been driven ashore on
the treacherous Goodwin Sands and the
news of other disasters to shipping is
constantly being received.
A telegram from the north coast of
Devonshire from 1rfracombe, at the
mouth of the Bristol canal, announces
that six would-be lifesavers have been
drowned while attempting to rescue the
crew of the Ketch Arabella, which was
ashore in a dangerous position off that
coast.
Several vessels are reported as being
ashore on the Gore Sands. Their crews
have been rescued by the lifeboatmen.
On the Somersetshire coast there have
been several exciting rescues and in
BridgeWater bay a steam tug, after q
long battle with the waves, sank near
the shore, drowning her engineer, who
stuck to his post to the last. The re-
naming members of the tugs crew
succeeded in swimming ashore.
A telegram from Southport states that
it is feared several fishing boats belong
ing to that place have been lost during
the gale of last night.
a dispatch from Blackpool announces
that three fishing smacks hailing from
that port foundered during the night, and
in spite of the efforts which the life
boatmen made to assist them, five of the
fishermen were drowned.
The coasting steamer Bull Dog was
driven ashore on the Borrow flats, where
the crew were rescued.
Dispatches received here from Liver
pool say that the gale there was ac-
companied by a binding rain and that
a number Of ships on the River Mersey
displayed signals of distress. The same
state of affairs is reported from other
parts of the country and all along the
coasts the ifeboatmen were kept busy
throughout the night, succeeding in saw
ing many lives.
Dispatches from various points show
that many ships in distress were desert
ed by their crews. The full extent of
the ravages of the gale will naturally
not be known for some days to come,
but there is no doubt that the shipping
interests have suffered considerably. No
damage to American shipping has been
reported up to the present.

clination for the study of science and
questions of natural philosophy alb,
sorbed much of his attention. Among
the first things that challenged his notice
in the course of his study of molecular
physics and chemistry was the matter of
fermentation. He wanted to discover the
causes of intestinal changes which begin
after death in animal or vegetable life.
In October, 1857, he was called to Paris
to assume direction of the scientific stu
dies at the Superior Normal school. But
the opportunities he desired were not af-
forded by that institution and he applied
to the minister of public instruction to
provide a laboratory of such experiments
as he contemplated No funds being
available for the purpose, the ambitious
young scientist erected at his own ex-
pense a laboratory in the garnet of the
normal school, and there he spent most
of his time.
NJ Pasteur's friends had 10 sympathy
with his aspirations and protested that
he could accomplish nothing in the di-
rection in which he aimed to achieve
wonders. But he perseyered and in
1854 demonstrated by experiments that
: the accepted theories of spontaneous gen
GRAFTON were false.
The most important of his recent
achievements was his discovery of moe
ulation for the prevention of hydropho-
bia. In 1880 he began the study of
this subject, bis attention having been
directed to the case of a child that had
been bitten by Il rabid dog. After the
death of the child two rabbits were
inoculated with the frothy matter that
had accumulated in the child's mouth
during it's last CONFUSION and it caused
the death of the animals in two days.
After various experiments he conceived
the idea of inoculating the brain of
dog with the virus of rabies, which es-
tablished the fact that rabies is a mala-
dy of the brain.
NJ. Pasteurs special study has been
chemistry and he has written numerous
works in relation to it, among which
are "A New Example of Fermentation
Determined by the Ability of 1nfusorial
Animalcules to Live Without Free Oxy-
gen." Studies of Wine, It's Diseases,
etc. 'Studies On the Silkworm Dis"
ease" and "Some Reflections on Science
in France" Prof. Huxley thought his
achievements an equal in money value
to the whole 5,000,00O,000 francs 1ndem-
nifty paid to Germany OH account of the

THE VENEZUELAN TROUBLE
Manoa Company. Which Has the
Grant, Holds Meeting in
New York CITY,

New York, Oct 3-The directors of
the Manoa company, which has secured
a concession of land in the territory in
dispute between Venezuela and Great
Britain, is holding a meeting here. The
syndicate will take possession of the land
this month and the course of the COM
pany will be determined at the coming
meeting.
The officers of the company are loatn
to admit that desire to embroil the
United States in the international dis,
pute prompted the Venezuelan govern
ment's concession.
President Bowman, in an interview,
denied emphatically that the grant had
been made with the idea that the United
States could be brought into the trouble.
He claimed that the grant had been made
in 1883 to a citizen of Venezuela, and
had been purchased by the company be
fore the trouble arose with Great Britain
over this territory.
London, Oct 3.-InQuiries made at
the United States embassy here today
show that no instructions had been re-
ceiyed there from the secretary of the
navy to notify the British government
that unless the Venezuelan question IS
submitted to arbitration within ninety
DAVIS the United States will enforce the
Monroe doctrine.
No such instructions as those outlined
have been received, and nothing what.
ever is being done through the United
States embassy here in regard to Vnezue~
Ia. The United States ambassador
Thomas f. Bayard, and secretary OF the
United States embassy, James Il. Roose-
yelt, are at present visiting in Scotland.

distinguished men, one eminently repre-
sentative of the wealthiest religious body
of the American continent. Admission to
the service was strictly by ticket, and
when the delegates had been provided
for, little room remained for the local
representatives of the church. although
these would have been present in
thousands had space permitted. The
service was opened at II ococl
and was preceded by proc

occupied the chancel, within the railing
of which the presence of not single
