YUKON RELIEF EXPEDITION.
EXEMPTION OF DUTY ON SUP
PLIES FOR MINERS.
Extends Only to Such Goods as Are
to be Gratuitously Distributed
and Not Those Sold.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-It has
been discovered. on careful inspection
of the permit granted by the British
Government for the taking of supplies
into the Klondike country free of duty,
that the exemption extends only to such
goods as are gratuitously distributed.
Under the terms of the Act of Con-
gress the Secretary of War is permit
ted to give supplies TO such persons as
are unable to pay for them, but the
Act seems to require that where the
miners are able TO pay for food the
money is to be applied to defray the
expenses of the relief expedition
A strict Interpretation of the British
permit would not sanction this action.
Still, as the permit was in the shape
of a letter from Sir Julian Pauncefote,
the British Embassador, transmitting
a telegraphic acquiescence by the Gov
ernor-General of Canada, and since 1t
was sent. the Canadian Secretary of the
Interior has conferred with Acting Sec
retary Meiklejohn, with a full knowl-
edge of the intention of the War De-
partment, it is believed that the Cana
dian Government will not interpose any
VSJSSbiOA ~ oul government fecOuDll{,
itself as far as possible by selling sup
plies at cost to miners able to pay for
them.
1t appears that the plan of using rein
deer as means of transportation from
the seaboard to the Klondike does not
promise success, owing to the inability
of the Government agent, Mr.. Kjell-
mann, to get the animals from lap
land in time to be of any service this
winter. 1t is the present purpose of
the War Department therefore. to
push through with the mule pack trains
as far as possible, and old campasgners
assert that they can get to Fort Sell
kirk at least, leaving the reindeer to
follow up the trail If they come along
at ALL The deer would be of the great
est use if they could be gotten through
to Dawson, even without a packload,
as they could be slaughtered for fresh
meat.

prey, I'VE have here petition in the
matter of Theodore Durrant, which we
would respectfully ask the court to con-
slider at this time"
'I am just finishing up my business
preparatory to going away" replied
Judge Hawley, land as the other
Judges are more familiar with the case,
having heard similar applications be-
fore, 1 shall decline to act in the mat
ter"
"Well, if the court please" said Mr..
Deuprey, in most humble tones, Eve
would like to have it appear that the
application was formally made
and -"
But Judge Hawley refused to make
an order, but left the court open for
Judge Morrow to hear the matter.
Mr. Boardman then tried TO induce
the Judge to change his mind, but was
unsuccessful, and a recess was taken
until ] p. M, the court remarking that
it was to be understood that the appli-
cation had been formally presented.
AT / o'clock the attorneys for Dur
rant were present, but Judge Morrow
did not appear.
The clerk of the court in few min
utes addressed the attorneys and said
that Judge Hawley's instructions We're
that, if Judge Morrow was not present
to hold court, it should stand adjourned
until II o'clock Monday morning.
Marshal Baldwin, at the request of
the attorneys, waited until 1:13, but
Judge Morrow not appearing. court was
declared adjourned until Monday next.
The application for writ of habeas
corpus was based principally upon the
fact that United States Judges Morrow
and DeHaven recently refused to allow
Durrant's attorneys to even file petit
ton for a writ of habeas corpus, the
contention being that the law gives the
right to appeal from the refusal of a
writ of habeas corpus. The petition
goes further, and alleges that in view
of the fact that the papers on appeal
were presented for filing-which filing
was Observation-Disclosures is virtually an
appeal now pending before the United
States Supreme Court.
The petition asks the reversal of the
former judgment of the Circuit Court
in denying the attorneys the privilege
of fling notice of appeal.

The Object of the Attorneys Was

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 31.-Another
sensational attempt was made this
morning to take the Durrant case into
the Federal courts. A remarkable doc

II he made any such representa- tionS,
they were false. There is good authori-
ty for the statement that he carried
absolutely nothing from either the
President or Secretary Sherman. The
President himself says that the sugges-
tfon that he sent any communication
10 Gomez by Consular Agent Madrigal
is absolutely false. Secretary Sherman
is equally emphatic in denying that
Madrigal bore any communica ton from
the State Department.
Mr.. Madrigal was sent to the in
surgent camp by Consul General Lee
to take to Havana the effects of an
American correspondent named CroS-
by, who was with the forces of General
Gomez and was shot in an engagement
some months ago. General Lee ar
ranged with General Blaneo to permit
Mr.. Madrigal to pass through the
Spanish lines to the insurgent camp for
the purpose of securing these effects.
Whatever else the agent may have
done has been without instruction. Al
though Mr. Madrigal was appointed
Consular Agent in February, the Span
ish Government has never granted him
an exeQuater. His mission is looked
upon as entirely unofficial.
Assistant Secretary Day has received
a response from the Ward line in New
York stating that the steamers of that
line will accept supplies for Cuban SUI
ferers free Of cost. Residents of Mon
tana contributed $500 to the relief Of
the CubanS. The Secretary of State
has directed the disbursing officer from
the State Department, Frank Banagan,
to take charge of any money and sup
plies and forward the to Consul Gen
eral Lee.

The statement sent out from Wash
ington that there was some doubtabout
the legal status of residents OF Porto
Rico, now that they have come under
Old Glory, was erroneous. There isn't
the slightest doubt about their legal
status. International law regards a
transfer of soil as carrying a transfer
of the citizenship. of residents upon
that soil, except when otherwise pro-
vided in treaty between the nation
which gives up and that which takes
possession. Porto Ricans are to-day
American citizens if the opinion OF
international lawyers OF repute are
good, and should one of them move
into one Of the States he would only
have to meet the requirements that a
citizen from another State would have
to meet in order to exercise all the
privileges of citizenship.

s.History Of the Spanish-American
War; By Henry Watterson.

The above is the title of a superbly
illustrated, richly bound volume issued
by The Werner Company, Akron,
Ohio. 1t is the only authentic history
Of the Spanish-American War that has
so far come to our notice. All the 9TH
ers have, in the main, been merely re-
vamped histories of the Cuban War,
with some Illustrations and a few
chapters about the Spanish-American
War. Of course, anything written by
Henry Watterson would be Teadible.
He, above all other men in America, is
fitted by training and experience to
write history of this war, which has
brought worldwide renown and glory
to our arms. Every line of the book
breathes an enthusiastic spirit of patri-
otism that is exhilarating and inspir-
ing.
The work contains over $50 pages, a
large number of full-page half-tones,
together with many rich double page
illustrations in ten colors. lit is sold
by subscription, and will undoubtedly
prove q money maker to every intclli-
gent salesman.

Constable Shoots a Boy.

EAsLEY, S. c., Oct. 31.-Last Satur-
day State Constables Newell and
Cureton were rliding around through
the country some two miles east of
Easley when they saw q col0red bog
named Rockman with a. jug in his
hand and q white boy named Gunter,
with tin bucket. Believing the boys
were carrying whiskcy, the constables
made Il dash to capture them. The
negro ran. Newell shot him twice,
once in the shoulder and once il the
back of the head. The shot in the head
glanced and did no serious damage.
When the negro fell Newell ran up
and jumped on him and beat him over
the head with his pistol. Gunter was
arrested and bound over for trial. The
negro was carried to Jail. Both par
ties are charged with violating the
dispensary law.
The question is, has any officer the
right under the dispensary law, or any
other law, to shoot a man when he is
running from him?
We think the sooner this iniquitous
law is wiped from the statutes the bet
ter it will be for all.-Grcenrille Ncws.

The United States Supreme Court
has decided the joint traffic association
railroad case in favor of the United
States against the railroads. The case
is considered one of the most important
that has ever come before the Supreme
Court not only to the railroads but to
the general public, and because of the
great railway properties represented by
the traffic association. 1t is impossible
to estimate the actual significance of
this decision. The proposition laid
down is sweeping. Put the law and
the decision together and they amount
to demand that the railroads of the
country give competition free rein, no
matter what the consequences may be.

The low price of cotton surely sug-
gests to your mind the importance of
growing something that will pay the
producer more for his labor. 1t is an
evident fact that as long as VIC produce
as much cotton as we have been dong,
in the past six years, the price of cot
ton will remain so low that those who
produce it, will lose money thereby.
Then what is to be done? We believe
the best thing to do is to raise less
cotton and more wheat, and corn,
oats, sweet and irish potatoes, hogs
and cattle. Produce a living at home,
be more independent. Raise half as
much cotton as you have been doing,
and command better prices, and you
will surely get them.

The recent lynching of the three
negroes in Edgefeld County charged
with the murder of Mrs. Atkinson is
deeply deplored by every law-abiding
citizen of South Carolina. If the men
were guilty an Edgefeld jury could
have been depended upon to punish
them to the full extent of the law,
hence the crime of lynching was with
out excuse.
