There was strange Scene at the Of
flee Of the State Treasurer yesterday
The State Board Of Examiners, in full
quorum, met at 10 O'Clock and actually
counted every cent Of So, 742, 36S.71 be-
ing the Treasurer's cash on hand.
When Governor Gage called the roll
there were present Attorney General
Ford and Assistant Post, Charles Curry
and Assistant Scott, Secretary Kevane
of the Board of Examiners and Assist
ant McGrath. There was no netting"
as in San Francisco, but an accurate
count Of every cent was made, the
Phelan method Of netting coin in bags
finding no favor in the eyes Of the new
board.
Governor Gage hammered the wires
into the counted bags, first seeing that
the tally of shining twenties was cor
rect in every particular. The actual
labor incident to the count lasted from
the morning session until after o'clock
and the jingling of coin in the presence
Of the States chief executive and other
high officers was something not often

The news that a case of yellow fever
has appeared in the American camp
near Havana need excite no alarm The
fever is never wholly crushed out in
Cuba, but that it may be under i'm
proved sanitary conditions is confident
ly believed. General Ludlow's recent
description of the unsanitary condition
of the city of Havana seems too horri-
bic for belief. Yet it can be under
stood when we reflect that under the
listlessness of the Spanish the filth ac-
cumulations of generations have been
allowed to remain in the city, until the
soil is fairly saturated with the Of
fensive and dangerous matter. What
ever the United States does in the way
of cleansing the city and introducing
sanitary reforms must be begun at
once. AT present the operations in that
direction are not, and cannot with pres
ent agencies, be thorough, though much
good work has been set on foot.

by the Democrat. The complete list
of the members OF Company return
ed to San Francisco and a brief an
nOuncement Of the arrival Of Dewey
and the Olympia, were bulletined in
the ARGUS windows Tuesday OF last
week, SO the editor of the Democrat
cannot plead ignorance of the news
and it would not help him much II he

that.

Will Buv a Railroad.

A West Virginia editor OF small
country newspaper having learned that
the B. &. o. road will be sold and that
Hill would bid $25, 900, 900 for 1t decided
that he would buy it himself and ex-
presses himself thusly.
''It has been the one ambition of our
life to own a railroad. At various
and divers times in the dim and dis
tant gone henceness we have counted
cross ties by the hundreds of miles,
simply for the pleasure of being in
touch with some great trunk line. have
roasted for hours on the trucks under
meath palatial coaches in order to be
conversant with their intricate mech
anism when our time for assuming
control of a great railroad came: and
have even suffered the ignominy of
leaving our perch between two box
cars at the point of conductors toes
for the sake OF getting pointers on rail-
road etiquette for future guidance.
Now that we have amassed more
wealth than we can use, even in our
present gigantic enterprise, the hope
of our lifetime shall be realized, and
no two penny capitalist like Hill will
find it In his power to thwart us.

Gubernatorial Talk,

Unless some other arrangements are
made within the next few days, the
managers of the Daugherty canvass
for the governorship will open rooms
in the building west of the Spahr block
and at once begin the work of push
ing the campaign in behalf of the
chairman. At first operations will be
limited to the work of stenographer,
with Chairman Daugherty, his conf
Dental manager, Howard Warrington,
and several other close friends, but
later on the force will be increased.
1t is the intention to work vigorously
and do all in the power of the man
ayers to secure the nomination for Mr..
Daugherty.
The pictorial boom in behalf of Mr..
Daugherty began yesterday, when a
consignment of engravings of the can
didate was received at the office of the
secretary Of state from whence the op-
rations of the Daugherty bureau are
now being conducted. At the proper
time these cuts will be shipped out to
the country editors, and the editorial
pages of our esteemed bucolic contem-
poraries will soon be Dlossoming out
with the pictures of Mr.. Daugherty.
These counterfeit presentments will be
accompanied with carefully prepared
sketch of the career of the candidate
that the country editors will be expect

KNEW KEELEY's SECRET.
Tesla, the Electrician, Says He Sur-
missed the Methods of the Fn-
nous Motor Man.

The astounding disclosure of the
methods which John w. Kelley prnc-
ticed upon many thousands of credu-
lous persons is the cause of state-
ment from Nikola Tesla, the electri-
clan, that for years be has known the
secret of the motor.
The dismantling of Keeley's labora-
tory at 1922 North Twentieth street,
Philadelphia. brought TO light great
spherical reservoir and many lengths
Cf fine highpressure brass tubing. Mr.
Tesla says:
"When the reservoir and pipes were
found ! knew the surmise had enter
tained was correct. Although he evil
IDENTIFY used compressed air in his ex-
periments. it does not follow that he did
this deliberately TO deceive. Acting on
my conjecture, have performed most
of the experiments reported and still
more wonderful ones to the lay mind"
