YOKOHAMA, September s, via Vic

course pursued by the Empress Dow
ager of China continues to attract at
tention. Her severe temporary illness
at first reported as due to poison, is
later interpreted as political expedi-
ent to checkmate the schemes of the
rival factions at court and to pave the
way for the help of the Japanese gov
eminent in the person of Marquis Ito,
under whom needed reforms are to be
made. That this curious plan is apo
cryphal is evident from the fact that
the Marquis has received an appoint
ment as president of new and inn
portant bureau in the imperial house
hold of Japan, which brings him into
closer relations with the Emperor and
makes him more than ever the power
behind the throne.

The Dugan Case Settled Before the
Mayor Yesterday Afternoon --0ther
Notes of Interest.

The hearing of Walter Dugan on
the charges of displaying shotgun and
interfering with force of the Bell
Telephone Company's employees while
in the discharge of their duties, as pre-
ferred by Superintendent McElliott,
came up before Mayor Thomas Shop
pard yesterday afternoon at one O'Clock
and attracted considerable attention.
There were present eleven witnesses for
the plaintiff but their testimonials
were not required, as Mr.. Dugan plead
ed guilty to the charges The amount
assessed by the Mayor was S. and costs,
and it was paid promptly. Attorney
Handlan, of Wheeling, appeared for the
defense.
AS is known the case grew out of
an interference on the part OF Nj.
Dugan with the work Of a force OF the
Bell Company's men under Superinten-
dent McElliott on Tuesday afternoon.
The workmen were putting up poles
along the old county road In the yicin-
ity of the lower mill and at a point near
the premises of Mr.. Dugan. The latter
Immediately raised an objection, claim
ing that the wor1men were operating
on the line of his property. According
to the accusations Mr.. Dugan displayed
shotgun and made menacing remarks
and the men were compelled to aban-
don their work for the time being. A
plot of the land, as drawn up recently
by City Engineer Smith by authority
of Council, and at the expense Of the
Bell Company, showed that the poles,
placed at points designated for such
purposes.

for l7i4 OF an application for a patent
for such a machine. Exactly 100 years
later the Arm OF Balm g. Wright ap-
piled for a similar grant. and the con-

basis that enabled Mr. Thurber, at
