ON GOVERNMENT BY INJUNCTION.
Judge jackson Makes One Against Eugene
V Debs Perpetual.


V. Debs Perpetual.
Wheeling, W. Va, Sept. 21.-The feat
ure Of interest in the opening session
Of the September term of the United
States court for the district OF West
Virginia was the application Of ex-Gov-
ernor A. B. Fleming. of Fairmont, to
make the injunction against Eugene v.
Debs and others perpetual. The gov
ernor was acting for his client. the
Monongah Coal company. and as there
was no appearance for any of the de-
PENDANTS the injunction was made per-
petual. In the course of his remarks in
making this decision Judge Jackson
said that If like case We're presented
to him now he would make the same
kind Of order he had made at Parkers-
burg, where the temporary injunction
was issued recently. Continuing, he
said: There have been some public
structures that 1 know are due to the
fact that the order made in these cases
was not understood. This decision is
founded on good law, good morals, and
Justice.
Nearly 200 years ago courts Of equity
In England issued restraining orders to
protect the citizen in his right of prop
erty. There is no reason why the rights
Of property owners should not be pro-
tected by the courts. These owners in
vested large sums of money in their
plant at Monongah, and the bill for in
junction alleged that the defendants
were about to do things that would
lessen the value Of the property and
possibly destroy it. The law is that
where an injury is threatened to which
the law afforts no adequate remedy,
then the court Of equity interferes to
prevent the injury, and this is such
q case. The injunction abridged no
right Of the miners, did not interfere
with the right of free speech, and was
a carefully prepared and well consid-
| cred order.
Il instructed my officers, in taking
that injunction to serve 1t, to stand be-
hind it like the soldier behind the
! fortress, but to keep within the lines
| of the injunction and not to extend OF
step beyond it, and do nothing excepting
exactly that which was required. This
| order was not an innovation. 1t is an
application of what consider good law
and was done in a proper case to pro-
tect property of the plaintiffs, which
the court conceives to be it's duty, just
as it would protect the rights of the de-
PENDANTS in the proper exercise of all
their privileges under the constitution

The 7S-POunder From Georgia Pre-
scented to the President.
Washington, July 21.-President McKin-
ley was the recipient to-day of an unique
compliment in the shape of a huge Geor-
gia watermelon. Several members of the
delegation in congress, accompanied by a
number of ladies and w. N. Mitchell of
Atlanta, the Southern freight agent of the
Baltimore and Ohio, made the presentation
in the blue room of the white house.
The melon was about two and half
feet long and measured six feet in circum-
ference. 1t was packed in golden ham
per, wrapped in the American flag and en-
twined with white silk ribbon, on one end
of which was the flag of the United States
and on the other the arms of the state of
Georgia. 1t weighed 70 pounds.
1t was secured by the southern office of
the Baltimore and Ohio, which offered a
prize for the largest melon grown in the
south this year. The states of South Car
olina Georgia. Florida and Alabama COM
peted for the prize.
Representative Livingston made the
presentation speech. In doing so he re-
ferred to the old adage about the Greek
bearing gifts and assured the President
that when opened no office seeking enemy
would emerge.
The President made a happy response,
saying among other things that he was
especially gratified for the assurances that
it contained no office seekers.

The yellow Fever Microbe.

Prof. Giuseppe Sanarcll. OF the Monte.
vldeo Medical school, the discoveror OF
the yellow fever microbe, has az last fully
described that bacillus icteroides" IN the
Lancet. II Is a minute rod. with round
ed extremities, two TO four thousa ndths
millimetres In length. and generally twice
or thrice as long as broad. The microbes
are found. not IN the bowels Gas had all
along been supposed, but In the tissues
and circulation. They collect IN great
est force in the spleen. After six or sew
en- days they suddenly pass into the circu-
lation from the spleen, begin 10 reproduce,
and cause death by blood poisoning The
action Of the bacillus Is that o. an cner-
getic poison.
But the most notable OF the results OF
DR.. Sanarellfs discovery II his belief that
the diffusion OF the virus may be affected
through the air. Contagion. In his opln-
ion, - possible through the respiration
system. In widowed air there are condi-
lions sufficient even 20 breed colonies of
cultures from any microbes present This
accounts 70 great extent for the fever's
long life on southern sea coasts.
As for the cure Of the disease DR.. Sah-

scramble for their lives. When the men
reached the main deck the hawser towing
the barge was cut and The Saturn was

SAN ANTONIO's CRACK SOLDIERS.
sham Battle Brought to n stop by a
Startling Discovery.


San Antonio. Tex, July 2f-This was
San Antonio day at Camp Culberson and
fully 10000 persons witnessed the military
manueuvers of $500 troops.
The Belknap Rifles of San Antonio and
Company d of st. Paul. Mimi, drilled
for the interstate championship and the
Neeley Zouaves of Memphis competed for
the zouave prize.
The Belknap Rifles stood a good inspec-
ton and put up a fair drill, but a few
company and several individual errors will
probably lose them the prize.
Company d of st. Paul stood almost a
perfect inspection, the best of any COM
pany in camp. They were the only COM
pany to drill by the new tactics. Their
drill was good They were steady and
firm, but their step was little slow and
their firing ragged.
The Medley Iouaves put up a magnificent
drill. Two of their men fel. exhausted on
the field but their places were taken
promptly and the drill proceeded.
During a skirmish drill by the Fifth
United States Cavalry, Capt II. s. Bishop,
Troop X, Fifth Cavalry, was thrown from
his horse and severely injured His collar
bone was broken and other injuries infiict-
ed.
A sham battle and night attack on an
improvised fort occurred at night, but was
brought to a sudden stop by the discovery
that fixed ammunition was being used by
some of the soldiers. No one was injured
and an investigation Is being made to dis
cover the guilty parties.

ex-Inspector General.

Camp Satterlee, st. Slmon's Island, Ga,
July 21.-The Fourth regiment encamp-
ment has been named Camp Satterlee, in
honor of the former inspector general of
Georgia's state troops. Col. Varnedoe of
the Fourth regiment in speaking of the
encampment, said: This encampment is
purely volunteer, and at the individual
expense Of the troops. The Fourth regi-
ment is formed by the Dawson Guards,
Naldosta Videttes, Townsville Guards,
Albany Guards, Brunswick Rlfiemen and
Waycross Rifles. Their location is in sep
arate towns and cities and 1t is necessary
that we meet In camp at least once each

companies disclosed a general feeling of
good cheer and Camp Satteree has open
ed splendidly.

hospital steward. The encampment was
commenced without confusion and in fine
order
