Court of Inquiry VIII Return to Ha-

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2s.-At the close
OF office hours a telegram came to the
navy department from Admiral Slcard. al
Key West, In the following terms:

''To the secretary of the navy, Wash

The important feature Of this communl-
cation IS the declaration that the cour:

the rumors that have been current for

had consequently no further business in
Havana.
One important deduction 10 be drawn
from the message Was that the report os

LAND GRABBER TURNED DOWN.
Supreme Court Holds That Govern
ment officers Could Not Locate.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2S.-The United
States supreme court today decided
that a United States official could not
take advantage of his office to secure ad-
vantages over others in the location OF
government land. The opinion was rem
dered by Justice White. and was given in
the case of Ransom Payne. who was a
deputy United States marshal in Okla
homa and on the ground when the land
of that territory was thrown open TO set
tlement. He took advantage of this op-
portunity to locate a tract of land
The secretary of the interior refused TO
issue 4 patent on the ground that Mr.,
Payne could not with propriety take adj
vantage OF his official position 10 make
location and therefore his location was
illegally made.
'Manifestly," said Justice White. in de-
Gliding the case. congress did not intend
that one authorized TO enter the territory
IN advance OF the general public solely for
the purpose Of performing official duties,
should be at liberty Immediately upon his
arrival to assume the status OF a private In
dividuai and actual settler and make Sc
lection OF a homestead, thus clearly secur-
Ing an advantage over those who remained
outside the territory until the arrival of the
time when they might lawfully enter''

Can COnstitutionaIly Prescribe the
Length OF n Days Labor.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 2S.-In the su-
preme court today an opinion was handed
down In the case of f. l.. Holden VS.. the
sheriff of Salt Lake county. Utah, involv-
ing the constitutionality OF the territorial
law fixing days work In smelters and
mines in the territory az eight hours
Holden was arrested for volatin the law
and sentenced 10 imprisonment He
brought the case 10 the supreme court in
an effort to secure a writ OF error, on the
ground that the law was unconstitutional.
The court held that the law was an exer-
else OF the states police powers The de-
cison OF the supreme court OF Utah was
affirmed
Justice Brown said. in passing upon the
case, that 1t was not the intention Of the
court TO pass generally upon the consti-
tutionality Of the eight-hour laws. but that
in so far as state laws were exerted for
the protection OF the lives. the health or
the morals of a community, there could
be no doubt OF their propriety or OF their
constltutionality. There could be no
doubt of the exceptional and unhealth-
ful character of work In smelters or mines
because of bad air. high temperature and
noxlous gases, and hence the wisdom OF
the state legislature.

SEATTLE. WASHINGTON. TUESDAY, MARCH 1. 1898

chimes OF their respective classes that are
afoai today. Don't have any fears for
the safety of the American navy, gentle
men. IL We have war. 1t VIII uphold the
honor OF the old tiag as nobly as in the
past ~
"Of course, know that the modern IRON
clad has not yet been thoroughly tested n
battle The navies Of the world are ncth-
ing but the work OF theorists. But the skill
OF American designers and builders is equal
10 that OF their foreign competitors any
where. I VII go further and say that a
number of the men whose knowledge has
been al the service Of the navy department.
for the last twenty years are admitted 10
be the most scientific men in the world.
Several of them rank as authorities by the
admissions of the best naval experts Of
Great Britain.
1t Is my good fortune TO be personally
acquainted with Capt. Sigsbee, OF the
Maine: with Capt. Taylor. and with other
members OF the court OF inquiry that is
sitting at Havana to determine the cause
OF the accident by which We los. the Maine.
Let no American citizen suppose that IN
this emergency these men Will not jeai
ously guard the henor of their country, or
that they lack the grit TO probe to the bot
tom IN making this investigation. II the
Maine was destroyed by treachery. and
there is a way to get the facts, they viii
get them"
The gentleman said that he had been
unable to determine either by his knowl-
edge OF the details of the explosion that
have been given or by the reports of dis
coveries tha, have since been made, what
was the cause of the explosion that de-
stroyed the Maine.
Nothing must be taken for granted by
the public. None OF the reports in the
newspapers must be relied upon implicit
ly.'' he said. Not word of information
that is official will be given out either at
Havana or Washington. Every member
OF the cour, of inquiry is pledged to Sec
recy, and he would violate his pledge at
the peril OF courtmartial. Every wit
hess is sworn TO secrecy. 1t will be noted
that none OF the correspondents have sent
out any reports OF the evidence given be-
fore the court That Is only because they
cannot get it. II is proper that such pre-
cautions should be taken. If there IS GO
ing 10 be war over the Maine incident.
II is best that our government should
nave all the advantage that can be had
from keeping the results OF the investiga-
ton quiet"
The ex-naval officer positively refused TO
allow his name to be used in connection
with any matter for publication. He said
that while he is not now in the employ of
the government. If there is to be war he
will be called upon and will expect to re-
spond promptly. 1t would be unprofes-
sional for him TO permit his name TO be
used or himself to be quoted in regard to
these matters.

II was afraid they would blow up the
town" continued the witness. so | ran
TO the schoolhouse and asked the teacher
10 excuse my little sister. as l knew She
would be safer at home"
Stephen Guttenmiller gave the first
evidence to suhstantate the assertion OF
the defense that man stood behind the
line OF deputies and urged the strikers on.
George Name. of Hazelton, said that he
was with the sheriff at Crystal Ridge a
few days before the shooting. and saw the
sheriff disperse a number OF strikers. AS
they went away one cried: "We'il come
