Washington, Aug. 1.-The latest Off

of thirty-seven cases and seven deaths
from yellow fever at the Soldiers
Home at Hampton, Va. One new case
occurred at the home yesterday. Thus
far the disease has been confined to the
home, but all surrounding towns are
excited, and a vigorous quarantine is
being maintained. DR.. Wasdin, of the
Marine hospital service, is in charge of
affairs at Hampton, and is working in
cooperation with the local boards of
health. He has strengthened the Gordon

reports is in very bad sanitary condi-

Only One New Case for the Day.

The fact that only one new case ap-
peared yesterday is encouraging to the
officials here, who are taking every
measure to prevent a spread of the dis
ease They feel that the fact that the
affected locality is in the hands of the
government and under one manage
ment will be of great value in dealing
with the scourge, and enable better re-
suits to be obtained than where cpl
denies break out in commercial places.
Already a number of inquiries have
been received by DR.. Wasdin from
quarantine officers throughout the
United States asking whether they
shall impose a maritime quarantine
against Norfolk. He has replied that
there appears to be no necessity for
such restriction in the case of either
Norfolk or Newport News.

against the Cambria Iron Company for
infringement Of the patent rights Of the
Carnegie company to the process Of steel
making which employs the metal mix

steel manufacturing establishment In
the world.
The announcement, made November Z,
that the United States supreme court
had denied this petition OF the Carnegie
Steel Company and thereby affirmed q
decision of the United States court OF
appeals nulllfying the Carnegie compa-
ny's patent rights to this important in.

now to be finally reviewed and adjudl-
Gated by the supreme court OF the

PARKERsBURG. W. Va. Noy. co.
A case OF peculiar interest TO the oil
business everywhere was decided by
the supreme court yesterday evening,
which had IT'S origin in Tyler county. It
establishes the fact that there is no
necessity for the filling in of certain
blanks on the ordinary printed forms Of
oil leases, especially as to dates, when
the intentions of the parties to a con-
tract are made apparent. The supreme
court by this action has established
that technicallties will not prevail in
controversies over contracts.
Homer L. Bowers, Of Tyler county,
leased forty acres Of ground for oil
purposes to Steele q Mathews, deliver
ing the lease on March 10, 1897, the
day after 1t had been drawn up. The
blank place for the date Of the lease
was not filled. and neither was the part
as to the number OF acres reserved
around the dwelling house. The time
in which q well should be put down was
left blank. Over month later the
lessees rendered rental, which the les-
sor refused to accept, claiming that
rental should be paid in thirty days.
There had been no stipulation as to the
time rental should be paid. In octo-
Der of that year, Bowser rented the
farm to other parties, Then the lessees
who had been refused the tender OF the
.mony by which they were to hold the
property brought suit for the possess
sion Of the lease. It was bitter con.
troversy in the Tyler circuit court. A.
]. Yoke, Methodist Episcopal preach
er, was the party securing the owner
ship OF the first lease from Bowser, and
the court upheld that lease, delivered
on March 10, the one which had no
dates nor stipulation az TO rental or the
time that q well should be completed.
Shay & McAIullen, who had secured the
second lease. took the matter to the
supreme court, on the ground that the
lease was void for uncertainty The
supreme court decided that the other
parts Of the lease were sufficiently de-
finite to make good sufficient con-
tract, and that omissions to fill blanks
do not invaIidRte a lease. William p.
Hubbard, of Wheeling. represented
Shay & McMullen. who lost this suit.
Its bearing on the oil business Will have
far-reaching effect.
