Clearly Proved by Experiments Made
in France and Germany.
One of the strangest things in re
cent science has to do with the wac
cination" of land, says the Rochester
Times. Everyone knows that 1t en-
riches, instead Of impoverishing a field
to plant it occasionally with legumi-
Gus crop, such as clover. or Iucerne,
the roots of which have a power of
absorbing and retaining more nitrogen
then they take from the ground But
where the nitrogen comes from is
another matter, The air suggested it
self at once when people began to
study the problem, and .Me55rs. Lawes
and Gilbert, among others, spent many
months in fruitless endeaVors to trace
the source of the air, coming at last
to a negative conclusion. The discov-
cry was eventually made by Herren
Hellriegel and WilIfarth, of Germany,
that the absorption was due to minute
organisms "a sort Of diSease) in the
roots, which, when the supply of nitro
gen in the soil began to fail, appeared
in the form Of small e1crescenceS.
drew nitrogen from the air and so
caused the enrichment. When this had
once been settled it became a matter
Of Importance to foster, and, if posi-
Bile, hasten the growth Of the disease
in the fields sown with leguminousae,
and extensive experiments have been
made during the last few years in
France and Germany with this object
Fields have been literally ''vaccina-
ted" by spikins over them soil in which
tuberculous crops have grown, or even
water in which they have been soaked.
In 1890 a tract of old peaty land was
sown with clover and vaccinated with
about one and a half tons to the acre
of an old clover field. Scarcely any
other manure at all was used. A more
convincing experiment still was per-
formed In Prussia, where q large field
was sown with lupinS and divided, one
part being treated in the ordinary
fashion, the other inoculated from an
old lupin crop The yield in the latter
part was FIVE and half times as great
as in that under the normal treatment
A remarkable point in these operations
is that each variety of leguminousae
has its characteristic microbe, aud that
it is no use inoculatinS a field of clover
for instance, with lucerne. or OF lupin

feature in American politics by doing

ing conventions, and viii cali upon
the people themselves to nominate can
didates for the presidency and vice
presidency by petition. 1t is urged that
delegates 70 nominating conventions

wishes of the people sending them, and
1t has been decided that the people in
their own name shall name their can

WASHINGTON, March 4.-The Supreme
court met today after a recess Of four
weeks. with all the justices, except ny
Jackson, in attendance
A long list of opinions was disposed OF
rapidly Many Of them decided cases OF
great Importance. The interesting ques-
ton whether the conviction of a person
by means of a decoy letter is legal, was
passed upon in the case of one Grimes
convicted in Missouri for dealing in OBJ
scene pictures. He answered letter
from q poStoffice inspector which resulted
in his conviction, and he appealed, COM
planning against the means by which IT
was secured. The court held that deeoy
letters were both morally and legally JUS
tihable.
The decision of the Circuit court for
the District Of Massachusetts, in the
case of the National Cash Register com
pany against the Boston Cash Indicator
and Record company, was reversed, the
opinion by Justice Brown holding the de-
PENDANTS machine is an infringement on
the National Cash Register.
An interesting constitutional question
was decided in the case of r, 5. Emmert
against the state of Missouri. The former
IS an agent or peddler Of Singer sewing
pay a peddler's license. He refused. con-
tending that the machines came from
New Jersey, and that the license was a
restriction Oh the constitutional right of
interstate commerce. The court held,
that being handled as a part OF the local
and domestic commerce, they we're no
longer the subject of Interstate traffic,
and were properly subject to state police
regulations.
The Arkansas law Of 1887 limiting pas
senger fares to three cents mile and
fixing a penalty of $500 for each over
charge. was sustained.
In the case of the United States against
George H. Pratt and Monroe Salisbury,
of California, to recover excessive pay
tments made 70 them for carrying the
mails the action of the court below in
dtgmiSSing the case was reversed
The conviction Of Harry z. Batchelor,
formerly president Of the StochgroWers'
National Bank, of Miles City Mont. for
embezziement by the circuit court for the
District Of Montana, was reversed on the
ground that the indictment was defective.
The case of Bannon and Mul1ey,
against the state of oregon. the plaintiffs
having been convicted with twenty-five
others of conspirinS to bring Chinese la
borers into the state contrary to the law,
was decided. The chief allegation of plain
tiffs in error was that the Indictment
failed to aver that the act was felon-
iously done, but the court held that this
was not good and sustained the lower
court In the conviction.

Omaha, Neb, March 4-startIing de-
yeIopments were made in the Union
Pacific check-raising swindle today
which are calculated to alarm all cor
porations paying in checks. The dis
covery was made that the gang who
operated on the Union Pacific system
had method of erasing ink with an
acid which defes the best made paper,
which is guaranteed to show the slight
est presence of acid or other foreign
substance.
The amount secured by the 1--Erk OF
the gang is not yet known, but il is not
as large as at first supposed.
The fact is not regarded as OF much
Importance, however, as compared with
the new process which Is puzzIing the
eornpany's chemists and detectives.
The paper on which the checks are
printed has been regarded until now as
being absolutely proof against manip-
ulatiOn, but the operations Of the gang
of experts shattered all claims OF the
inventors of the paper that their in
Yention is acid-proof.
The checks which we're raised failed
to show a single era5uTe mark and
the amount of the check in figures in
the right hand corner, az we'll az the
the check, were wiped out as
completely as if cloth had
been used in removing dust from
table top Not content 18th removing
the figures. in one instance the name
Of the employee was removed and q
new name substituted. showing that
they had mastered the secret COM
mr.. Frank Brown local treasurer OF
the Union Pacific company, stated
that he had never seen checks so flaw
lessly altered as in the Denver case.
They had passed through his hands
but a powerful glass had failed to show
the least manifestation, and If ne had
not known the checks we're raised he
would have sworn that they were or
iginally as made. 1t was his opinion
that no other altered checks would
turn up, upon the theory that the
men had been able to clean up quite q
sum and would leave for oth1S4yfieldS
to prosecute their rascality.
What is to be done? is the question
which is perplexinS the minds of Off
Gals at the Union Pacific headquar-
tiers today. They argue that the pune
turing Of the amount of a check on
its face, by q machine invented for
the purpose. can be flied out with pa
pier rnaehe, painted over and a new
pundture made for a different amount.
That acknowledgements papers are
of no avail with the discovery of acids
that will wipe out the most reliable
ink as easily as dirt may be displaced
with water
The Burlington people are also ex-
cited over the paper, for they use the
Underwood safety paper and they will
nave to so back to the old method Of
paying employees in currency, should
no safe check paper be discovered.

The Iowa Indians in this country are
in a state OF great excitement and are

who at once prepared to resist and an
agreement was made among the men,
bers of the tribe not to allow any valu-
alton to be made. Last Saturday John
Amble broke this agreement and the
Indians, it is reported, are going to deal
with him as traitor after the Indian
fashion-torture.
Head Chief Big Head and Second
Head Chief Tohee have appealed TO the
United States attorney at Guthrie for
his advice. and it is said he advised
the Indians to get out injunotions
against being taxed.
