Some "smart aleck" has been amusing
himself by sticking pins and tacks into
bicycle tires. He might not think him
self so cunning if he should get caught
at his contemplate meanness. There is
law on the statute books of this state
reading as follows: Every person who
shall wilfully and maliciously destroy or
injure the personal property of another
shall be punished by Imprisonment in
the state prison not more than five years,
or 10y fine not exceeding one thousand
dollars and Imprisonment in the county
jail not more than one year." 1t will be
noticed that it is not the extent of the
injury done that constitutes the crime,
but it is the fact that it is done wiIfully
and maliciously.

Defend the Army Beef.
Washington, Jan. 10.-Fred w. Wild
err general superintendent for Swift &
Co. of Chicago has appeared before the
war investigating commission. The
witness said he had general charge OF
all the packing, canning and slaughter
ing of cattle for the Chicago plant and
gave a general account OF the practical
working of the meat business.
Referring to the much discussed
beard" on the refrigerator meat, Mr..
Wilder said the large wholesalers who
supplied the best hotels in Chicago
"aged" all their beef before selling 1t
and got an advanced price for it after
it accumulated the beard. He said the
meat was better in every respect after
being aged. AS to complaints regarding
the army contract beef he said the
Manitoba shipment was the only one
condemned.
Witness denied that any chemicals
were used in preserving any Of the
meat sold by his firm and said that, in
addition to other objections it would be
useless, would be a detriment to the
beef and an extra expense. The beef for
export was not the best beef, but a fair
quality.
d. CviIllel sousn. UIlns Out now
they determined Gin half a minute"
whether beef Is or is not or has been
tubercular. Colonel DENLY presiding
objected that the government inspectors
were the ones who We're responsible
"All right" said Dr. Conner. II will
wait to examine the government Of the
United States"
Edwin buckingham, for eight years
employed in the stockyards of Swift &
Co., also testified the beef was absolute
ly pure and had never to his knowledge
been chemically treated. He said all
the beef furnished for the war was in
good condition, that his duty was to
supervise preparation for shipment and
that beef. after reaching him. had not
been treated in any way, and nothing
was done save to cut it up.

THE JOINT HIGH COMMISSION,


I1OVVu agreement VIII be
Reached on Fisheries Problem.
Washington, Jan. 10.-The American
and Canadian commissioners held a
brief joint session, followed by meet
ings of the subcommittee on the north
eastern firheries and on the shipment Of
goods in bond. Fair progress, II Is
thought, is being made on both these
important subjects.
The fisheries problem is particularly
many long standing disputes growing
out of the wide ramifications Of the
subject. Il is hoped by the commission
that this is one of the subjects on which
mutually satisfactory agreement will
be reached before adjournment, as 1t
will remove serious source of friction
between Canada and the United States
The matter is not yet finally adjusted
The same is true of the Boring sea
problem, though no meeting Of this
committee has been held for some days
There will be d meeting in Washing
ton of lunber.nen from our northern
boundary states and Canada to discuss
the stu ton with a view to suggesting
the basis for compromise which Will
be acceptable to the lumber interests
of both countries.
1t is probable that they will fornu-
late memorial of some sort to lay be-
fore the joint high commission. If the
composition of the lumber meeting is
broadly representative of tho ir.e-o~.-
involved, it's recommendations will have
weight with the joint commission.

For Poverty Stricken Gold Hunters.
Seattle, WASH. Jan. 10.-According to

to relieve INDECENT miners in the Klon-

ment on foot at Dawson to send rep

pose Of enlisting the United States gov
eminent in the cause of aiding in rem
edying the great distress which prevails
among the miners of the Yukon. The
hospitals are overcrowded with indi-

The Yukon council declares itself al

gent sick. Donations for the care of the
sick come in regularly, but in small
amounts, while at this present moment
nothing less than $4,000 per month will
come anywhere near taking ordinary
care Of the poor fellows without money.
The dreaded scurvy has made its APP

THE ADAMS CASE.
Suspect still Mt Large, ~ Evidence
Is Yet Incomplete.

New York, Jan. 10.-Captain McClus-
ky, when asked If there would be any
arrests in the next "a hours In the Ad-
ans poisoning case, repeated his favor
lite remark:
There have been no arrests, and do
not expect that there will be any at
once"
Captain McClusky Is quoted as having
said that IL he should arrest the man
he has now under suspicion the grand
jury would discharge him in five or six
days, and then 1t would be impossible
to get any further evidence against him.
AS things stand now, with the man still
at liberty. the chief of the detectives
has the field to himself
The liberty that the suspect enjoys Is
but mockery Of the word, for his ev-
cry footstep is logged by detectives, 80
that. knowing exactly where to lay his
hand on his man when he wants him.
Captain McClusky can go as fast or as
slow rs he desires.
When he does arrest his man-that is
IL he does-he expects to have such a
case against him that no jury in the
country can possibly furnish the city
with another mstrial.
Assistant District Attorney John r.
Mcintyre says that he got into the case
at the start upon the order Of Major
Gardiner, who told him to take charge
of the exhibits and see that none Of
them was lost. This he did. and Mr..

dence in his hands is without a flaw. II

gued that until that report Is in the

ish to make an arrest. The chemists
