Republican Central Committee
Trick That Failed of Its Object.

Republican Central Committee
Trick That Failed of Its object.
A very pretty little game OF the Republican
state central committee for embarrassing the
reform 2ress of the state, in the circulation
of their campaign papers, has been nipped
in the bud, by the vigilance of the Democratic
committee and its press bureau The latter
has issued a large number of supplements for
and ON behalf of the state press. The sup
PIGMENT is devoted to the facts and records
or the Republican candidate, including the
bad-scented Guaranty Loan, Minneapolis off,
claI record, ETC., ETC., Of Mr.. Eust,s but
more especially the connection of the Re-
pupllcan caho;Gate with the grain and ele-
vator rings. There has been nothing what
ever secret about the matteT-in fact COPIES
of the supplement, like other matter OF the
Democratic part of the campaign, which has
IN ali cases been simply unanswerabie have
been given the Republican managers Struck
dumb with the terrific and unansWerable on
slaught the Republican committee could do
no more than seek some technical Way in
which to embarrass the publishers and the
only thing found was the technical fact that
both name and date were not placed on the
never given, under such circumstances. for
the reason that the papers differ so widely
as to dates of publication The Republican
circular called on postmasters to do the dirty
work OF stopping the papers containing such
supplements.
AS all that has transpired during the cam
paign, in the deepest recesses of Judge
Steeles sacred precincts, has been constant
ly known by the Democratic managers, as
well as by The o e, so this sly move
was instantly known. Before the ink on
the bulldozing circular was dry a copy of it
was in Democratic hands, and almost in the
same mail that carried 1t out to postmasters,
went another circular from the Democratic
committee Informing their editors of the
move, and suggesting the proper remedy
OF course IT is not likely that any con-
siderable number of Republican postmasters
could be found mean enough to take such I'M
usual and mean advantage Of the opposition
papers, but still there might be some. At
any rate they were completely eheckmated,
and it was all done before Judge Steeles
minions knew what they were about.

1t was discovered yesterday that a great

regiment, and stored at a barn in Kitts1n-
dale while the men were on furlough, were
stolen during their absence from Camp Van

been found in local pawnshops, and have
been restored to the regiment but the
identity of the thieves has not been scov-

hearers the fact that Mr.. Martins election
by good majority would depend much upon
the exertions of his friends, as he was un-
able, himself, to attempt anything like cam

Enthusiastically applauded.
Judge Willis reviewed the Democratic
ticket briefly and his commendatory remarks
on each of the candidates ELECTED universal
applause. He spoke Of John Wagner. whose
majority of two years ago would be doubled
probably trebled, Nov g. He asked every one
to vote for William Platte, dan idate for

Judge Willis spoke in scathing terms of the
Republicans system of grain inspection
which had been industriously robbing the
farmer for so long, and the sinister pro-
ceedings of Republican judges in the Ste n

WAS NOT VERY WARM.
Reception to Foraker in the After
noon Was a FixzIe.

noon Was Fizzle.
One of the saddest things to the Re-
publicans yesterday was the reception,
West hotel in the afternoon. To say
that it was a frost would be doing an
injustice to the king of Greenland.
Joseph Benson got in on an early
morning train, and in charge of a COM
mittee was hustled around to the Re-
publican committee rooms in William
Henry Eustis' building, and was then
trotted back to the West hotel for
lunch. 1t was announced that between
and .. m. public reception would
be given in honor of the Ohio states
man.
Judge John P. Rea was the first man
there. Judge Rea and Foraker went to
school together down in Ohio, and so
he took advantage of this fact to get
in ahead of the Republican push, with
which he has not been very popular of
recent years.
1t was lucky the judge dropped in,
too, or Mr.. Foraker might have had to
play a lone hand at the hour set for
the reception.
Just one good Republican showed up
at o'clock. 1t was Thomas Lowry,
the gentleman who has been most ar
dent in the advocacy of Eustis' cleo
ton. Somebody had made Mr.. Lowry
chairman of the committee on arrange
ments. Seemingly, he was the rest of
the committee. also. If he wasn't the
rest of them were laying off. But
Tom was busy He was at the tele-
phone and at the managers office; he
was in the billiard room and he was in
the reading room; he was here, there
and everywhere trying to find a Repuh-
lican who would come UP and give the
OhiOan the glad hand
1t looked pretty bad at 3:15, but Gen
George P. Wilson came in. The gen.
eral has son in the army at Manila
and Foraker has a son i'll with yellow
fever at Santiago, so they managed to
spend few minutes in a little confab

SOLDIER BOYS PLEASED.
The Reading Room Provided fo1
Their Use on Seventh Street.

Use OH SeFeHtH SNTeOt'
The delight of the soldier boys in the
reading room opened last night on Seventh
street is bit affecting. The men have had
no place to go and of very necessity many
of them have been loafers on the streets
for want Of better occupation. Now, thanks
to the Red Cross and Y. NJ. c. A., room
large enough to accommodate 300 men mas
been thrown open for their use and not only
is there reading matter, but piano is also
at their disposal, and last evening saw a
large number of the men taking advantage
of the place.
The Red Cross societies will continue to
keep Mrs. Johnson at the station, and the
Aid society rooms will be open as usual for
some time to come. Any one wishing to
offer hospitality to any of the soldiers to ask
them to dinner or luncheon, is requested to
leave name and address at the Red Cross
rooms. Many of the ladies have already in

WAS THE DEFICIT OLD?
Difference of Opinion as to a Short
age in, City Funds.


The pay rolls for October, which reached
the city comptroller yesterday from the sew
eral departments, were all approved, with
the exception Of those from the building in
spector's department and the board of public
works This is the second month that the
pay rolls of the building inspectors depart
ment have been held out. and the reason as
signed by the comptroller is that the de-
partment has exceeded the so per cent of the
amount allowed the department in the tax
estimate
In speaking of the holdup yesterday after
noon, Mr.. McCardy said the receipts from
taxes this year had been small owing to the
semi-annual payments allowed under the new
law. For this reason the several department
funds had not been increased by the addi-
ton of tax receipts, but that after the Octo-
Der settlement tax receipts would be dis
tributed to the various funds and then the
building inspectors department pay rolls
would be settled.
Building Inspector Haas, however has an
other explanation for the failure to pay his
department for the past two months He
claims that the comptroller paid the back
salary due former Building Inspector Kings
ley out OF the fund, and that was what
caused the deficiency
The clerks in the office of the board Of
public works will receive salaries for Octo-
Der at the regular pay day, but the four
members of the board who each draw S20S 80
per month, will be obliged to wait until after
the October settlement for their salaries.

Great victory for Special Agent

John e. Stryker.
| An opinion in the case of the United States
of America, plaintiff in error, against the
Pine River Logging and Improvement COM
pany ct al, defendants in error; in error to
the circuit court of the United States for the
! district of Minnesota, was filed in the United
! States circuit court of appeals yesterday, by
! Judge Thayer. The decision is a victory for
the federal government and involves the sum
| OF s467, 900.
Attorney John E. stryker, as special agent
| OF the government looked after the inter-
| ests of the United States.
The United States brought the action
| against the logging company, j. B. Bassett,
| W. L. Basse>t, John S. Pillsbury and Charles
A. Smith prominent Minneapolis lumbermen
to recover the value of 22,005, 921 feet OF lum-
| Der, alleged to have been wrongfully cut and
removed from Indian reservations
| This lumber the defendants claimed to have
! cut under five contracts, made with the In
dams and approved by the interior depart
ment.
The pleadings showed that the defendants
shape of sawlogs. The evidence showed e.
| coo eco feet The defendants had leave to re-
ceive 100000 feet of lumber
On the trial of the case in the lower court
| the verdict and judgment were for the de-
! PENDANTS
Judge Thayer, with Judge sanborn concur
| ring, reverses the judgment and verdict and
| orders the back for new trial.
In the trial in the court below much stress
was laid on the fact that the timber had been
cut with the approval of T. W. Tidd, q
government superintendent of logging, and
that, therefore. the government was estopped
| from any claim against the defendants.
Judge Thayer finds that this position is
not tenable.
Tidd was, he says, derelict in his duty,
and his acquiescence cannot bind the govern
ment
1t was claimed, too, on the trial that the
defendants could not be held liable for the
! TO per cent which paid into the Indian
fund, but this claim is also overruled by
Judge Thayer.
There is in the opinion discussion of the
meaning of dead and down" timber, deflni-
ton which Is to be moderately interpreted,
and is not to include live and healthy trees
which may happen to be growing in the midst
] Of timber that is dead or diving.
