NOW FOR STRAWBERRIES.
Tennessee Promised q Large Crop
Chicago to Take Most of II.

Chattanooga, Tenn. Feb. 2T.-Thc
prospective strawberry crop of this sec
ton Of Tennessee is beginning to engage
the attention of the transportation peO-
pie. The acreage in and about Chatta-
nooga runs over 2000, and the prospect
for big crop is fine.
1t is estimated that there will be at
least 100000 crates. The berries pick
about Seyenty-tve crates to the acre, and
it IS expected that it will require 400
freight cars to transport them to mar
llet.
Tennessee berries in past years have
been bringing good prices. The average
is said to be 80 per crate. If this av-
erage is maintained this year the forth
coming crop will amount to nearly $500
coo. The growers will be Melted some
thing like 100000. Already fast
train on the Cincinnati Southern to car
ny the crops to the markets is projected.
The fruit Will be handled in special re-
frigerator cars and the train will run on
passenger train schedule. 1t is probable
that the American Express company of
Chicago VIII make an arrangement to
handle biz slice of the business and
still further enlarge the Chicago market
for the Tennessee product.
Last year, rs indeed for many years,
this company carried the berries to Lake
Michigan i'll solid trains.
1t is said here that the peach crop III
southern Georgia has been affected by
the recent zero weather, but peaches are
all right here During the last few
years the number of peach orchards has
increased greatly. and many of the trees
will bear fruit this year One of the
largest peach districts in the South is at
Menlo, some miles south of this city.
1t IS feared. however, that frost has
killed the buds in that locality.

TO PURCHASE NEW MINE.
Pittsburg Company Cannot Supply
Demand for Iron Ore.

Ishpeming, Mich, Feb. 27.-[Special.i
FOR some months past officials of the
Pittsburg & Lake Angelina Iron COM
pany, owners and operators Of the
Lake Angelina mine OF this city,
have been looking around with
view to purchasing new mining property.
The Lake Angeline mine is no longer
adequate to furnish the company with
sufficient ore to meet all requirements
1t is in view of this that the officials
are now reaching out for new irOn-ore
properties. Their interests are such that
they must mine ore Oh a larger scale
than heretofore. To purchase ore from
other operators would entail an enormous
extra expense in the operation of fur
naces in which the company is inter
ested.
The Mikado mine on the Gogebic range
was recently purchased by the Pittsburg
& Lake Angelina company and it is like
ly that other properties on either the
Gogebic or Mesaba ranges will be bought
at a near date. Capt. John Sincox, who
has been employed in an official capacity
at the Lake Angeline mine for many
years past, will soon take charge Of min
ing work at the Mikado, with Thomas
Walters, superintendent of the Lake An
geline, as general superintendent. Plans
for an extensive and systematic eXpIora,
ton of the new possession are now be-
ing formed. The MikadO is Il very prom

Navy Department Knows Why
Dewey Asks for Oregon.
WHY SHIP IS WANTED.
Show of Overwhelming Power will
Impress the Ignorant
Natives.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 25.-The dis
patch from Admiral Dewey speaking Of
political reasons for sending the Oregon
to Manila at once, is still the subject of
general discussion here. But, apparent
ly, the administration is satisfied that it
understands exactly what the admiral
meant when he used the term political
reasons" for it was stated positively at
the navy department. today that no in
Qulry had been addressed to the admiral
on the subject and that he would not be
called upon for further explanation.
This means that the Interpretation
placed upon the phrase by the admins
tratlon is exactly that conveyed by Sec
rotary Long yesterday, namely, that the
big ship IS regarded as necessary to i'm
press the Filipinos not only on Luzon
but those on other islands Of the group,
With the overwhelming power of the
nited States navy, fer, it is said at the
department, in the dense ignorance in
which these people live they can be i'm
pressed only by personal observation.
Secretary Long said at l. o'clock that
the only dispatch he had received today
from Manila was a brief announcement
from Admiral Dewey that the Petrol had
sailed for Cebu.

FOUND AN ARM.
Fragment of a Body Which it is
Thought tobe that of Mrs.
Becker.

Chicago, H., Feb. 27.-[Special. i
There were no new developments today
in the case of the alleged murder of
Mrs. Becker. Capt. LAWN, in speaking
Of the case today said: There is moth
ing further to be done now but to search
for the missing woman. We have gath
cred considerable evidence and my Off

which, according to the statement of
Henry Sanders, Becker on one occasion

wife; also the rings, the hair pronounced
by DIR. Kirby to be human, the watch
identified as hers the clothing and
trunks and various other articles.
\ human arm was found today by the
foreman in charge of the city dumps at
Forty-seventh street and the Panhandle
tracks. The stockyards police thought
it might be an arm of Mrs. Becker. Capt.
LAWN and Lieut.. Gallagher went to the
dumps and carried the arm to the police
station. After an examination the pO-
lice were inclined to believe that the

HIS HINDSIGHT.
Man Thinks He Has an Invention
Which will Help Many Persons

New York, Feb. "Hindsight'' is
better than foresight in some contingent
cies, and a man who appreciates that
fact has secured a patent upon novel
little device which supplies ''hindsight"
to the people who need it most. "A post
visual reflector" is what Allan Taylor
calls his new invention, upon which let
ters patent have just been issued at
Washington. 1t is an arrangement
which enables the wearer to see every
thing occurring within a certain range
behind him without turning his head
Literally it realizes the proverbia pos
session of "eyes in the back OF ones
head
The post-visual reflector will be useful
to jockeys, drivers Of trOtting or pac-
ing horses, oarsmen and bicyclists. Mr.
Taylor, a hotel man of this city and Bos-
ton, is a deyOtee of ''light-harnesS rae
ing and a gentleman driver of renown.
He knows the advantage to the driver
tagonists in whipping finish" and at
the same time keep his eyes upon the
work of his own horse. The invention
was born of the knowledge gained from
actual experience.
For drivers and jockeys the post visual
retectors are fastened to the bows Of a
pair of big spectacles fitted with clear
glasses of no magnifying power. The
glasses are also intended as mud guards
to protect che eyes from the dirt thrown
up by the horses flying feet. The little
rehectOrs are fastened above the glass
and set at an angle which brings the full
width of race track for distance of
100 yards within clear range of vision.

CEMENT FROM STAG.
An Important Industry Undertaken

Chicago, Ill, Feb. Especial. /
Ground was broken today at the mouth
of the Calumet river for large plant to
make cement from pig iron Stag by a
process which promises to revolutionize
the industry. The works are being built
by the Illinois Steel company, and the
total outlay will be 100000. The build
ings will cover an area 400 feet square
and will have q daily capacity Of 1900

Northwest OF this city, near Big Man

the largest tract of hardwood in Michi-
gan and comprises about 1900 acres Of
the best timber. IL the center of this
tract is a clearing which was once
thriving Indian village, In 1S46-48 the
government decided to give practical
demonstration to the world how this gov
eminent civilized and Christianzcd the
was transported to this ideal location and
furnished with horses, cattle, wagons
and agricultural implements. The village
was marked into streets and all modern
improvements were included in the plan.
1t was Il long winter, and early in the
spring smallpox broke out in the settle
ment. The cattle, horses and grain were
eaten by the starving Indians. The gov
eminent inspectors and employees did not
visit the model settlement III the spring,
as the smallpox scared them away. That
fall government agent went to inspect
the settlement, but could not find an In
dian. They had moved to healthier To-
cations or joined other tribes. Orders
were issued by the government to return
the Indians to this settlement but they
drifted away. The implements rOtted
and fell apart, and today, lying among
the bushes, are the tires, plOw beams,

A BARON ON TRIAL.
Man Charged with the Murder of a
Constable in CHICAGO

Chicago, ILL.,, Feb. 27.-Baron Curt e.
Won Biedenfeld was placed on trial today
charged with the murder of Constable
Charles Mcdonald in a saloon on No
vember %. The trial opened before a
large crowd of spectators, including a
number of people prominent in Chicago
society There was no preliminary ora
tory The impaneling of jury began
at once. The defense. it is said, will
make no attempt to deny the shooting,
but will contine itself to establishing
the former good reputation of the baron
1t will be brought out that Mcdonald
repeatedly threatened Biedenfeld, and
that the latter was in constant danger
