The extraordinary improvements
which have recently been made in bi-
cycle lamps makes it the more sur
prising that the locomotive headlight
has been so long neglected, since moth

engineer should see as far ahead along

Rubber From Cotton Seed Oil

Savannah, Ga, Nov. 19.-
John g. Garter, formerly of
Boston, Mass. the inventor of
a process for making a substi-
tute for rubber from cotton seed
oil, died in the city hospital this
morning after a brief illness.
BY profession Mr.. Garter was
a landscape and portrait paint
er. Several years ago he dis
covered his oil rubber process.
He went to Boston to enlist
capital in his invention. Thirty
thousand dollars was invested
in a plant near Greenwich Park
Fire soon after destroyed it, but
it was rebuilt, only to be badly
damaged by a storm. Again it
was rebuilt and was on the eve
of being started once more when
death claimed its originator.
The process was known only
to Mr.. Carter, and unless he
left written instructions and
directions for the continuance
of the work, it is probable the
secret died with him.

case, however, there is no desire
that the complaint should be
made by the party to whom the
alleged insult was given, the
police board prefcrring the
charge. 1t will, however, per-
nit, and is most earnestly ro-
quested, that you designate II
counsellor-at-law, who will rep
resent you in the prosecution
of this complaint, and if in his
gment it is deemed best the
form of complaint may be
drafted by such counsel.
I'm reference to the statements
contained III your communication
as to open and public violation of
law and discipline in the neigh
borhood of Pro Cathedral, the
board has taken action thereon"
The following resolution was
also adopted:
"Resolved, That the chief of
police be and is directed to cause
a rigid enforcement of all laws
and ordinances throughout the
city of New York, and that he
give to the same his personal al
tention and insist upon a rigid
compliance with this resolution
on the part of every officer in the
department, and that he will
adopt such measures as will
enable him to be assured that the
acquisitions of this resolution are
complied with, and when a failure
to so comply exists he is required
to at once prefer charges against
the delinquent persons"

New YOrk's Raid Oh Vice.

New York, Nov. 19-The
police board met at headquar-
ters today in session especially
called by President York to
consider the letter sent to the
board by Mayor Van Wyck in
regard to the charges made by
Bishop Potter. All members
of the board were present except
Commissioner Hess, who is i'll.
The board preferred charges
against Inspector Adam Cross
and Captain Herlihy. Herlihy
is the captain who is alleged to
have been impertinent in his
reply to the Rev. Mr.. Paddock,
of the Pro-Cathedral, who asked
for information. Herlihy was
on Saturday transferred from
his precinct to the steamboat
squad.
The board sent q letter to
Bishop Potter, which, after
quoting the Bishops reference
to the treatment of DR.. Paddock,
goes on to say:
THE first knowledge that any
member of the police board had
of this alleged insult was convey
ed in the public prints of Sep
tember %, which reported the
proceedings of the Episcopal
Convention, having reference to
this subject matter. The resolu,
ton adopted by such convention
called for an investigation by you
and, if the facts justified it, the
presentation of a suitable com,
munication to. his honor, the
mayor. In view of this resolution
the police board has waited the
result of your investigation and
such action as you should deem
necessary. The receipt of your
communication from the mayor
places the matter now before the
board for its action; and to the
end that proper charges may be
formulated against the officers
complained Of, the preparation
of which necessarily required a
specific statement of the dates
and times of the alleged offence
and the persons against whom
the offence was committed, !
respectfully request that you
cause to be submitted to me for
the use of the police board the
name of the person or persons
against whom the offence was
committed; the date or dates of
its occurrence, and the language
used as nearly as may be. Upon
the receipt of such information
charges will be formulated and
preferred against these officers
who may be named. The practice
of the police board has been to
permit the appearance of coun-
sci for the parties making com
plants on the trial had against
q member Of the force. In this

BUDDHIST POPE COMING.
Will Visit America and Europe in
Great State.

TACOMA Wash. Dec 31.-The
steamship City of London brings news
that Count Otani. the Buddhist Pope"
OF Japan, is about to visit America and
Europe. At home he is chief prelate of
the Hong Wan Temple. The wealthiest
adherents of his sect have raised 200,-
600 yen for the expenses of his journey.
This will enable the Count to travel in
state, which he intends doing, with a
large retinue of assistants and serv-
ants. A quarter of the sum raised is
set apart for the personal expenses OF
the prelate, and the remainder will
pay for the expenses of his suite and
the purchases he contemplates making
in this country and Europe. japanese
papers state that the amount of his al
lowance has caused some controversy
among leading Buddhists, some think
ing that Count Otani is becoming ex-
travagant. He will leave Japan in the
spring. 1t is yet unsettled whether he
will first visit America or Europe.
