Mrs. Leslie Carter Discharged From
Court as q Bankrupt.

NEW YORK, Oct. Mrs. Leslie Carter,
who, next to Maude Adams, has for the
last year been rated as having made more
money than any actress On the stage, has
been discharged as bankrupt by the
United States District Court. The decree
was handed down by Judge Brown and it
relieves the American creator of Zaza oil
debts amounting to S63,77S.
When she entered her petition in bank
ruptcy on November Z, 1898. she was pre-
pairing 10 put "Zaza" on the stage and was
living here in luxurious style, yet in her
petition she could Offset her liabilities with
assets OF only $780, and this was in wearing
apparel. Ii is not quite clear how this
amount of clothing was divided among
Mrs. Carter's creditors, yet, according TO
the legal decree, they are satisfied.
When her debts were scheduled her prin-
cipal creditors were: Writ Dexter Cnica-
20, cash loaned, $20,7ei; Marshall Field &
| Co, Chicago, 1891; White & Howard,

vel, 81, ,40g; Caroline Rath, Dayton, Ohio,

S2,70S. There was big list of judgments
against the actress. Many of them were
held by Chicago firms. Hitchcock, Oar
ling & Co, of the Fifth Avenue Hotel
held judgment for s497, representing par
of the cost of a sumptuous suite of apart
ments.
IN the last week of the same month il
which she declared herself without means

I Washington 1t was an instantaneous sue
cess. and has been ever since Mrs. Car
ter's income from it has been estimated
more than 81 000 week. During the sum
Iner she lived at Bar Harbor. Recently 1
was announced that she had rented Elsi'
more for the season, paying 81 500 rental.

There were also present several of the
members of the District Court bench,
John R. Young, Clerk of the Supreme
Court of the District, and many members
of the District bar.
After taking the oath and receiving the
congratulations of those present, General
Anderson, accompanied by Mr.. Davis, re-
tired to the District Attorneys office, where
they remained in consultation for some
time. After the conference the new Dis
trict Attorney visited the desks of the as
sistants, whom he greeted pleasantly and
by whom he was cordially welcomed.
After he had announced the appoint
ment of Mr.. Taylor as one of his assistants,
! General Anderson was asked If he ant1ei-
| pated making any changes in the office.
| He replied that he did not. The appoint
ment of Mr.. Taylor, he stated. does not
mean the displacement of any of the
present force of assistants in the Office.
It is understood that while the appro-
piration to defray the expenses OF the Office
! is limited. there is no law regulating the
/ number Of assistants which may be ap-
pointed by the District Attorney.

NoRFoLK, Va, Oct. 5.-Nine members
of the crew of the schooner Carrie A. Lane
we're brought TO this port this morning by

THE RAILROADS DEFIANT.
Legal Orders 10 Build Depots in a.
Ianfa Ignored.

ATLANTA, Ca. Oct. 5.-The railroads
centring IN Atlanta have thrown defiance
at the State railroad commission and pgac-
ticaIly refused 70 build union passenger
station, as ordered by the commission. The
present terminal facilities are very mad
equate and for some months the question
Of remodeling them or supplying new
ones, has been sgitated. On many occa-
E!ons the railroad commission has ordered
the different roads 10 provide suitable ac-
commodations, but this the railroads have
failed to do. As q last resort, the commits
sion lately ordered the roads each 10 build
separate terminals, and today was the last
day OF grace on which the different sys-
tens could combine. and escape the expense
OF erecting individual buildings. They
failed TO submit plans. however, and alb
eolutely refuse 10 take any action until the
legislature meets. holding that the West
era and Atlantic road, the property of the
State % Georgia, which owns the present
site, has the key OF the situation, and as
long as It remains inactive and is not
forced By the Legislature. no definite un-
cerstanding can be reached.

MAJOR MARSHALL RELIEVED.
A Number of the Engineer Corps
transferred TO New York.

CHICAGO, H., Oct. 5.-Major William L.
Marshall, United States engineer in charge
Of the Government works here, has been
ordered detached from duty and VIII re-
lieve Lieutenant Colonel Benyaurd, at New
York city Major Joseph H. Willard, who
has been in charge of the Government
works at Vicksburg, Miss, vii succeed
Major Marshall at this point.
In the twelve years that Major Marshall
has been in charge of the Improvements
Of the Chicago and Calumet harbors, he
has steadfastly refused to recommend the
Improvement of the Chicago River on ac-
count Of the constant dumping of sewage
into Il, which, he said, filled the stream
and made the deepening of it scayenger
work that should be performed by the city.
Major Marshall has also been criticised
for his alleged opposition to the sanitary
canal and to the project of a deep-water
way through the State, which. according
10 his views, is visionary.

BETTER STREET LIGHTS.
A Change in Burners on Gas Lamps
to he Made.

In accordance with the policy that is
being pursued in the electrical department.
of the District government, relating to
the illumination of the various streets
along which run lines of surface railroad,
by gas lamps with an Illuminating power
greater than twenty-five candles, the Com
missioners yesterday ordered that Wels-
bach burners be placed on ninety-three ex-
listing lamps.
1t was originally intended to have arc
lights placed in position when change in
the style of burners of the gas lamps was
to be made, but owing TO a misinterpreta-
ton of an act of Congress, it is necessary
to hold back part of the appropriation, and
it is not possible to increase the electric
light service at the present time. This
decision is based on an opinion rendered
by the inspector of electric lighting, at the
request of the Commissioners.

GOLD IN NEW JERSEY.
An Abandoned Mine With n Vein of
Precious Metals.

PLAINFIELD, n. J.. Oct Some time
ago John Apgar, farmer who lives about
a mile from Woodbridge, toward Glen
Gardner, took some ore to an assayer who
pronounced it 10 contain So worth of silver
and SIC worth of gold to the ton. This re-
suit would not make mining profitable, so
Mr.. Apgar searched for better specimens,
which he found The latest analysis made
a few days ago by a Rutgers College chem
ist shows s43 gold to the ton. The depos-
its OF silver were correspondingly large.
This has resulted in the forming of a local
company with $4,000 capital to begin OPP
erations The finds are in an abandoned
old mine of considerable depth, nearly
filled with loose rocks, and considerable
labor viii be required to clear it. Work
will begin at once so as TO determine the
width and depth of the vein. The mine
was opened about thirty years ago.

There is one race inhabiting the Phil

be afforded every facility and induce
ment to immigrate to the United States
and engage in the skilled labor in
which it has no peer This is the giant
East India honey bee, and investigation
of its work and immense capacity for
making honey and wax has interested
the department of agriculture in the
consideration of an early effort to in
troduce it into the United States Sec
rotary Wilson said in connection with
the proposed importation of these bees
to the United States that a special ap-
preparation would be asked in his com
ing report to Congress for the inves-
tigation of the bees of the world, and
a swarm of the big Philippine honey
makers would be brought to America
as soon as the question of their value
and the possibility of their acclimation
have been fully determined. There will
also be an appropriation requested for
the study of agricultural and kindred
products of the newly acquired terrific
ry of the United States, and even I'M
der this head the great honey bees of
the east could be introduced by the de-
partment to this country.

two countries into closer contact with
each other The writer is Of the opin-
ion that nothing can save China but
Decentralization, and that the quick

is by utilizing the progress that Japan
has made. The translation of Japanese
works into Chinese presents few diff
culties compared with rendering Eng

advocated by Chang Chih-tung in
cludes the creation of a powerful ar
