VIRGINIA OFFICIALS
Resist the Authority Of the United
States Court

CHARLESTON, w. v, Oct. 3l.-A Sc.
rious clash between federal and state judicial
authorities is expected here Manard
Stiles. attorney for Henry G. King of New
York, obtained from the United States cir
cult court here an injunction to nhibR the
sheriff of Logan county from selling land of
his client for taxes. Judge Doolittle, of the
circuit court of Lagan county, issued rule
against Stiles for contempt After hearing
Stiles answer to the rule, Judge Doolittle
committed Stiles to jail, to remain there un.
til the injunction proceedings in the federal
court were dismissed.
Stiles was placed in the county iail. and an
application was made to Judge jackson for
a writ of habeas corpus, which Judge Jack
son issued, and deputy marshal was sent
to bring Stiles before the federal court The
sheriff and jailer refused, under instructions
from Judge Doolttle, to deliver the prisoner
to the United States officer. and the officer
having reported to the district attorney.
Judge jackson was asked to issue a writ Of
attachment against the sheriff and taller.
the effect of which was to bring these Of
iicers. with their prisoner, before the court.
Attorney General Rucker Of this state
requested Judge Jackson to delay the ISSUING
OF the writ until he can communicate with
Judge. Doolittle, which Judge jackson
agreed to do. IT Judge Doolittle refuses to
give up the prisoner, an attachment will be
issued, and if the United States officers are
resisted, the United States troops may be
called on to suppress the rebellion.

GUNS and CARRIAGES
FOR THE PROSPECTIVE NAVY
AND ARMY
No Trouble Need Be Anticipated in
Blowing in Any Surplus in the
National Treasury

NEW YORK, Oct. 3l.-A dispatch to the
Herald from Washington says:
That the latest improvements in the man.
ufacture of ordnance may be obtained for
future American men-of-war, orders have
been given to Commander X. G. Pendleton,
superintendent of the gun factory, to pro
ceed to England to inspect the methods pur-
sued there in the construction of guns,
mounts, torpedo tubes, etc.
| Wire wound guns, which have been so sue
cessfully developed for the English Navy
| will be carefully examined by the visiting
officer, and as under water discharge tubes
| for torpedoes have been adopted for the
battleships Maine, Missouri and Ohio he
will learn the method of their manufacture
at the ordnance works of the Armstrong;.
The department has purchased the right
to use the method of manufacture of under
water discharge tubes from the Armstrong;
and have bought the right to use the breech
mechanism Of guns built by Vickers Sons
and Maxim.
The six-inch rapid fire gun built by the
latter firm is one of the latest weapons of
that caliber constructed, a splendid record
having been made in firing trials which were
held some time ago. In this gun the powder
and projectile are separated, while in the
six-inch rapid fire guns of the United States
Navy the shell and powder are combined by
means of carriage case. A six-nch gun
on plans somewhat similar to these followed
in the construction of the Vickers gun
was recently built. The tests of this weapon
at the proving grounds have demonstrated
it's value and all future six-inch guns will
be constructed on the same lines.
The new. type is As feet in length and
weighs eight tons, and is designed for a
muzzle velocity of 5000 feet per second. 1t
is the intention of the Ordnance Bureau to
equip no more protected or unprotected
cruisers with torpedo tubes, the authorities
being pretty well convinced that there is no
necessity for them.
Water discharge tubes will be supplied to
armored cruisers and battleships.
Capt. Charles O'Nears recommendation
that uniform caliber of small arms be
adopted for the use of the army, navy and
marine corps has attracted considerable at
tention in army and navy circles. 1t is
expected that Secretary Long will indorse
bill providing for co operation in the pres
ent army and navy to obtain uniform arm.
The caliber of the Lee small arms in use in
the navy is 1868, while that of the Krag-
Jorgensen rife is 80. The army is CON
vinced that the Krag-Jorgensen rifle is best
for it's use, while the navy asserts that the
Lee is superior. 1t is not believed that
any great objection would be raised. by the
navy to increasing the calber of its gun
to 80, so that cartridges manufactured for
the Lee might be used for the Krag- Jorgen-
sen,

Quick-Acting Carriages

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Oct. 3l-The Walk
er Manufacturing company Of this city has
o.a for the Burlington Crozier dis disapnearihna hes
guns, for which it was awarded the CON
tract last April by the government. A test
shows that everything about the big ma
chine works with the smoothness and accur-
acy of clockwork, the carriage being turned
in five seconds. The carriage weighs 10000
pounds and the guns $4,000 pounds. Not
withstanding its great weight, the gun is so
if necessary. When finally mounted, how
ever, all its movements will be controlled
automatically, except the loading and aim
ing. The gun will rise by the power of coun-
ter weights, and its recoil will send it bacl,
again. The Walker company expects to
finish, carriage every 80 days until all are
completed.

OREGON AND IOWA
Reported Safely Arrived at Bahia
Brazil

WASHINGTON, Oct. 3l.-A cablegram
received at the navy department from
Bahia, Brazil, announces the arrival there
of the battleships Oregon and Iowa. They
are nineteen days from Tompkinsville, max
ing an exceptionally smooth and rapid run
down. The collier Abarenda, now at Bahia,
consumed thirty-one days in making the
same trip. Because of her lack of speed, she
probably will be allowed to return to the
United States, instead of going along to
Honolulu, as was intended.
The battleships will stop at Bahia for a
few days, replenishing their coal bunkers
from the Abarenda and the Celtic, and then
will proceed to Rio, where they are to take
part in the demonstration there on Nov. 18th
to commemorate the anniversary of the birth
Of the republic of Brazil.

Ultimatum Today.

WASHINGTON, Oct. Pat is expected
at today's meeting of the peace com mis-
sion in Paris, that the American COM
missioners will deliver to their adver-
saries something very closely resembling
an ultimatum. The president is salts
fed at last that the Spanish commits
sioners are purposely delaying negotia-
tions. This is the belief of the Ameri.
can commissioners also.
The time has now come to cut off ali
false pleas and come directly to the main
issue left open by the protocol, namely,
the disposition of the Philippines.

THEY TRIED THE
CANADIAN ROUTE
Two Men and a Woman Attempt to
Reach to KIOndike Over the Can
adian Route and Fail.

SEATTLE, Oct. PAT, A. Baker, of
Portland, who arrived from Alaska last
night, says he met two. men and a
woman at Skagway, who had just fin
ished trip of almost incredible hard
ships oyer the Edmondton trail. The
party left Spokane fourteen months ago.
When they started they had 2U00 pounds
of provisions and twenty-one horses.
Now they have nothing. All their sup
plies and animals were lost and they
consider themselves fortunate in having
escaped; with their lives.
Theyssaw provisions scattered along
the trail from the time they we're we'll
up in the interior until they left for the
coast, and found several graves of those
who had perished in attempting to reach
the gold fields. Several times they lost
their way, and it was only by good for
tune that the trail was found again.
After travelling several hundred miles
and perceiving that it was useless to at
tempt to get through by keeping to the
regular route, they made direct for the
coast, going down one of the rivers to
the south of Skaguay.

Deafness Cannot be cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an .inf1amed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh,
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars; free.

PHILIPPINES
PROBABLY LOST
Spanish DOckyards Do Not Show the
Slightest Signs of Renewed Activi-
is or Other Indications that Spain
Has Any Intention of Renewing
the War.

New YORK, Oct. ga dispatch to
the World from Madrid says:
From conversations with leading poll
t;cians and ministers, the World corre-
breaking off negotiations over the Cuban
debt is regarded as absolutely prepos-
ferrous and suicidal. Even as to the
Philippines, in which vastly greater in
terests center, it is taken for granted
here that Spain must in the long run
yield to whatever the United States in
sists upon.
Telegraphic inquiries have elected Ir-
refutuable proofs that the Spanish dock
yards show absolutely no signs of re-
newed activity nor the slightest symp-
tom implying the remotest idea of re-
newing the struggle with the United
States. The vessels composing Admiral
Camara's feet are now dispersed to
various ports, chiefly Cadiz, Cartagena
and Ferrol, with their crews reduced to
a peace footing, and the majority of the
officers on leave and the marines all on
shore.
Work on all coast-defense works and
Notifications for defense, the arsenal and
the dockyards stopped at the suspension
of hostilities.
The officers and men of Admiral Ger
vera's feet obtained unlimited leave on
arriving.
At Ferrol and Cadiz especially things
are as quiet as before. Besides. gun
merry and machinery trials on several oi
the war vessels, including the Carlos v
and the Pelayo, reveal lamentable de-
ficienc;es.

YELLOW FEVER.
The Glorious Opportunity to Destroy
1t Now Being Opened to
Americans.

The expected has happened, and yell
low fever has attacked our troops at
Santiago. The first reports that were
permitted to reach the public were
dated July IL, on which day there were
IA new cases. Within three or four
days after that the total number of
cases to date was admitted to have
been upward of 800, so that it is certain
that the disease has been among the
troops for some time, probably having
attacked them almost Immediately
after the landing Vas made.
The policy of concealment was
svholly justifable at that time, for a
confession of the truth would have
served no purpose in protecting the
home ports, and would simply have en-
couraged the S2aniards to delay sur
render, and would have caused unavail-
ing anxiety and encouragement at
home.
All the accounts of the epidemic
agree that the disease is in an unusual
ly mild form, by far the greater num-
Der of those attacked recovering after
the normal period of not very great
suffering. Among the sufferers were
very many of the Red Cross surgeons
and nurses, all OF whom, so far as is
known, have entirely recovered or are
convalescent. Many immune surgeons
and nurses are on the way now to San
tiago, and will be assigned to the fever
hospitals Immediately upon their ar
rival.
Now that there is no human enemy
in our way, our sanitary officers in the
conquered province have an excellent
opportunity to give to the world an
object lesson in cleanliness. And we
are perfectly confident that, with the
filth Of Santiago destroyed the houses
cleaned and disinfected, the infected
huts burned, and our camps removed
to the hills as far as that may be pos
sible. Gen. Vomito Negro will follow
the lead of Gen. Toral and WELD to the
newt able.
We have always believed that the
chief reward to our country for un-
| dertaking this modern crusade against
the Saracen, and one that will fully
compensate US for expenditure of
blood and money, will be the liberia
ton of our southern states from the
l'constant menace of yellow fever. We
are fighting not only for the freedom
of Cuba from Spanish tyranny, but for
the freedom of America from Spanish
disease. The accomplishment of the
first object is almost realized, and that
I of the second is plainly in sight.
1t is not expected, however, that this
glorious victory can be won without
a struggle, and we therefore welcome
the battle which is now on, fearful in
deed that the loss may be heavy, yet
with no misgiving as to the outcome of
the contest.-Medical Record.
