CL.EMMER'S DENIAL.
Says That lie Never Made a Confess
sion to W. ii. King.

Norristown, Pa, Jan. 16.--James A.
Clemmer, who is charged with the mur-
der of Mrs. Emma p. Kaiser, denies
that he ever made u confession. His
counsel showed him the statement sent
out from New York by the man who
is supposed to be w. II. King. After
carefully reading 1t Clemmer said:
There is no truth in that statement.
never associated with a man by the
name of w. II. King. When l was in
Newark, n. j., a man by the name of
w. II. Killenbeck worked with me for
several months as a canvasser for the
Singer Sewing Machine company. We
roomed together and were apparently
good friends. One day Killenbeck en-
bezzled some money belonging to the
company. He left Newark and l never
saw him again. The Singer company
had a warrant issued for his arrest,
but the police failed to capture him.
Killenbeck evidently went to New York
and changed his name to King. If
you write to the managers of the ma
chine company you will find out that
what / tell you about Killenbeck is
true.
THAT man is not w. II. King, as he
alleges, but w. II. Killenbeck. He is
a fugitive from justice. and If he comes
to Norristown to testify against me he
will run the risk of falling into the
hands of the Newark police. ! am not
afraid of him coming here, and even if
he should, he could not injure my case
in the least. l never made a confess
sion to Killenbeck or any one else.
That story is lie pure and simple"
Clemmer further alleged that as soon
as Kilenbeck learned that he was
wanted in Norristown he betrayed him
to the police and received the 5000 re-
ward offered for his capture.

CONDITION OF
THE MILK SUPPLY
Report Made by Special Agent Of De.
partmeut Of Agriculture.
RESULT OF INSPECTION OF SAMPLES


Harrisburg, Jan. 16.--Dr. NJ. l.. Nc
Donnell, special agent of the state de-
partment of agriculture, has submitted
to Secretary Edge a report covering
an analysis of $50 samples of milk se-
lected in Philadelphia, Pittsburg, Alle-
gheny, Reading, York, Harrisburg. AL
toona, Erie, Scranton, Williamsport
and New York. Secretary Edge says
the results of the doctors examination
ers and producers to the great import
ance of protecting milk supplies from
contagion and contamination. The
worst milk was found In Pittsburg,
while in Philadelphia and New York
the supply was found to be remark
ably good.
Dr. Mcdonnell recommends that in
in all the cities of Pennsylvania. In
addition" he adds, "Pittsburg and
Harrisburg are in especial need of dairy
inspections. The milk of Scranton,
Erie, York and Reading is much better
than that of Pittsburg, Altoona. Alle-
gheny and Harrisburg. While there is
practically the same number of organ
risburg as in that of Philadelphia and
New York the age of milk received by
the latter cities is considerably great
er when received by the patrons and
the large number of organisms found
in the fresh milk certainly shows a lack
of cleanliness" "

Philadelphia. Jan. 16.--The negotia-

pany and the International Navigation
company for the purchase and sale or
the Ohio Indiana, Illinois, Pennsylva-
MIA and Conemaugh for the trade be-

Navigation company deciding to organ

passengers. They will be lighted by

Pacific coast as soon as alterations are
completed. General Manager Higpee,
of the International Navigation COM
pany, stated in an interview today that
the fact that his company has organ
lied the Empire Transportation COM
pany indicates that the organization
is not likely to limit its sphere of ac-
ton to the Alaska trade. All of the
company's agencies in Europe and this
country will be available for securing
passenger and freight traffic to Alaska
and the inevitable result will be the
great expansion of the operations of
the Empire company in the near future.
The officers of the International
Navigation company are now busily
engaged on plans for larger steamers
to replace the five boats withdrawn
from their North Atlantic service. The
new ships will be equipped with all the
modern improvements and adapted to
the requirements OF the traffic. They
will be built in this country, probably
by the Cramps.

RANCH IN MEXICO PURCHASED.
Colonization Scheme of a Syndicate
OfChicago Capitalists.

Chicago, Jan. 16-A Chicago synai-
cate, with S1,000,000 capital, has just
negotiated for the purchase of the Lo-
Iez ranch, said to be the largest ranch
in Northern Mexico. August Jern-
berg, a real estate man of this city,
started last night for Mexico to clinch
the deal by making the first payment.
The syndicate has agreed to pay $780,
600 for the ranch. The purchase is
probably the largest of its kind nego-
tiated by Chicago capitalists in num-
Der of years. The ranch embraces
100000 acres of rolling rrairie land.
Resides its agricultural richness, it
contains valuable deposits of asphalt
UNI. Thirty thousand head of cattle
are included in the purchase.
The principal scheme of the purchas-
ers was revealed by Mr.. Jernherg be-
fore he left for Mexico. He said: I'VE
intend to coloniZe the big ranch as soon
as we can get around to it. The syndi-
cate will take colonists down there as
fast as possible and sell them land in
different sections of the state of Tam
aulipas, where the ranch is located"
In the syndicate there are a few Wis
consin capitalists, notably a banker of
Stoughton, who is president of the
| Grand Falls Irrigation and Improve
ment COMPANY, which has large hold
| ingS in the Pecos Valley, Ward county,
| Texas. In that valley the colonization
| plan has been marked success. Fifty
families from Wisconsin have been To-
Gated there, and flOurishing town has
grown up. One of the largest cream
| cries in the south is about TO be huilt
there under the direction OF eX-CIOVer-
nor w. d. Hoard, of Wisconsin. who is
famous as a dairyman. The same plan
is to be tried on the Lopez ranch

BIG RECEIPTS FROM CUSTOMS.
Are Likely to Reach Nearly ,OOO..
900 i'm the Present Month

Washington, Jan. 16.-Indications are
now strong that the expectations and
estimates of Chairman Dingley of the
ways and means committee in regard
to the customs receipts of this month
will be fully realized, and that the in
crease over the preceding month will
be heavy. The receipts from customs
for the first fifteen days of the current
month two of which We're Sundays,
while one was a legal holiday amount
ed to $7,129,000, which was s1,175,00O
more than the receipts in the first
fifteen days of January, 1897. They
also exceeded by s1,4l0,525 the total for
the fifteen days of December, 1897, two
of which were Sundays.
If the daily average Of customs re-
ceipts for the remainder of the month
is as high as that of the first fifteen
| days, the total will reach nearly $15,-
900, 600, or about $2,30O,000 in excess OF
the total of December, 1897, and about
So, 500, 900 in excess of the January total
| of 1897.
