A PECULIAR lEOIDSNT.

TBz 'ollowipg article from the Rich
| mond, Va. DAILY TIxEs Of Nov. 27tb,
explains itself and shows how consid-
crate some OF our Broad Street msr-
chants are in dealing with the feelings
OF others:
There was o most embarrassing
scene In q Dsd Street dry good .
house yesterday afternoon when the
| wife OF = prominent citizen started to
walk ous OF the place with 8 handsone
| csat Tor which she had not paid. The
| lady had entered the cloak depart
ment OF the establishments and asked
| to be shown some OF the latest style
coats.
These were shown Der. and she tried
on one OF the haRdsomess Of she los.
She then turned to look at some other
articles, and shortly sfserwsrd started
out u the store.
AS the lady got near the door abe
was called and informed that she had
neither paid for the coat nor requested
that IL be charged.
/ At first the woman seemed puzsled
then, casting her eyes down at the gar
mens, she remarked: "0h, L declare,
quite forgot, made . mistake. I do
not want che coat" She removed it
and It was placed in its former place
in the cloak departments. The lady
went her way, but seemed much con-
iused over the incident"
We trust none of our colored folks
will take IL into their heads to be
equally IS absent minded for Justice
CRUTcHFIELD would prove himself so
absent minded and give them long
term In Jail before he remembered
that the prisoner at the bar had been
abse nt-minded only.
We colored folks call that kind of
bu'iness the "slickest kind" of steal
ing aud so do the police authorities
here.

LOST A BIG STAKE.
Either Way Was Money for Liti-

The supreme court has cold and cruel wav
of differing with Judge Mcdonald. The great
warehouse case of SibsOn & Kerr, plaintiffs, vs.
The HamiltOn-ROurke Warehouse Company.
defendants, has been decided by the high court
SlbSOn u Kerr are winners. The case involves
a money proposition of something like $4,000
There was that difference between the oppos-
ing counsel and courts. SibsOn & Kerr are
Portland wheat buyers. The Hamilton Rourke
Company did general warehouse and wheat
buying business covering the country east of
the Cascades. Differences arose and SibsOn &
Kerr sued the HamiltOn-ROurke Company. In
the Htigated mix-up S. J. Chadwick was ap-
pointed referee. He heard the case at Port
land and awarded SibsOn Il Kerr judgment for
something, more than $98,O00 against the Ham
iltOn-ROuTke Company. The latter appealed
TO Judge Mcdonald through the law firm of
WYman u Neill. The judge promptly turned
the scale by Wiping out the findings Of Referee
Chadwick for $98000 and more in favor of
SibsOn q Kerr and gave the HamiltOn-Rourke
Company Judgment for SAG, ,5O0
H. W. Garfield represented the SibsOn &
Kerr interests at this end of the line and of
course appealed promptly from the Judgment
of Judge Mcdonald. He was notified Wednes-
day morning that he erred not in his appeal,
and that the supreme court had upheld the
findings of Referee Chadwick, with the excep-
ton Of one item of $500, and turned down
the Whitman county court which spread juris-
dictiOn over Oregon.
This leaves Sibson & Kerr winners about
$95, 700 and costs of several thousands.

ATTEMPT AN OUTBREAK
Fiiipinos Left Their Employers To
Join In 1t


Manila, May 13.-The latest rumor Of
an outbreak in Manila among the
natives, which was in circulation last
week, was seriously discussed by some of
the local papers and attracted more
general attention than has usually been
the case with this sort of thing, Asa
matter OF fact many Fiipinos did leave
their American employers with the ap-
parent intention of joining some such
movement. Their action, taken in con.
nection with the arrest of several natives
for carrying concealed weapons and the
dispersion Of several suspicious gather
lngs, gave color to the reports. The
officials have been active in the matter,
but are not inclined to think an uprising
will be attempted. They believe the
FllplnOs lack the necessary courage.
A paper found among the captured eff
fects OF General Pantaleon Garcia as
serts that the United States congress
has done nothing for the Filipnos and
that therefore all Filipinos who are
working for Americans must leave their
employers Immediately or suffer the
penalty of treason.
One report is that the Filipino junta
is endeavOring to incite an outbreak in
order to show the civil commission that
the insurrectiOn is still alive.
