TILES IRE CONFIRMED
U. S. COURT OF APPEALS MAKES
AN IMPORTANT DE-
CISION
QUESTION OF REsURvEYs
Surveyor General, 1t Is Held, Can
not Resurvey Land Unless Own
ers COnsent-ARects Home
stead Titles.

Judge w. H. Sanborn, of the circuit
court of appeals, yesterday filed de-
cision in the case of P. II. Kirwan, Unit
ed States surveyor general, cit al, against
Simon ]. Murphy ct al, in which the
decision of the United States circuit
court for the district of Minnesota is
affirmed without costs to either party
in the court OF appeals.
The decision is an important one and
according to it a large number of settlers
on nearly 1000 acres of timber land bord-
ering on Cedar Lake, Mimi, have the
titles to the homestead confirmed
Kirwan was formerly government sur
veyor of logs and lumber for the dis
trict Of Minnesota, and Murphy was the
owner of some land near Cedar Lake.
Kirwan recommended to the commits
sioner Of the general land office that
the land in this section of the state in
which Murphy held his property be re-
surveyed. The commissioner first We
toed the matter and then on appeal ap-
proved of the resurvey. The order for
the resurvey was isslsed. This was in
1e95. The first United States survey at
Cedar Lake established a government
line some distance back from the shore.
leaving between it and the water the
land in dispute.
The matter was taken to the United
States circuit court. for the district Of
Minnesota by Murphy and others owning
the land in dispute. and the court held
that surveyor general could not re-
survey the land unless the owners con-
sented to the resurvey.

BARS KNIGHTS OF KADosH.
Insurance Commissioner RevOI<es
SOciety's License in Minnesota.


SOciety's License in Minnesota.
The license of the knights of Kadosh,
a fraternal insurance society with head
quarters at Des Moines, has been re-
voked by Insurance Commissioner
Dearth. 1t was last winter that the
society was admitted to do business in
this state. A discrepancy of $4,65035 be-
tween the assets of the company and
the amount that will be required to pay
outstanding claims has been found by
the commissioner.
He states that stronger objection
against the concern is the fact that the
control Of the business has been prac-
tically placed in the hands of enc man.
i. II. Pickrell, who receives all the
fees except those paid local medical ex-
aminers, together with rs per cent of
the receipts from the first assessment,
and 10 per cent of all subsequent as
sessments. Besides this the home office
in its representation would have nine
teen votes to three from outside states.
The commissioner says that the society
is not conducted On principles of fra
tcrnallsm and that the state Of Mime
sofa derives no benefit because of the
fact that it does business here. Such
a concern, the commissioner says, should
start out with equal representation of
all the members and then it would be on
g good financial basis.

AMOUNTS TO FRANCHISE
ENDICOTT PROMOTERS WOULD
FURNISH LIGHT AND
HEAT
ASsEMBLYMEN ARE SURPRISED
Simple Ordinance Turns Out to Be
FuIl-FIedged Franchise
Granting Use of
Streets.

What turns out to be full-fedged
heating and lighting franchise was I'M
earthed yesterday, when the assembly
committee on streets was asked to consid-
er an ordinance that has lain dormant
in their hands for the past two weeks.
Two months ago the document appeared
in the shape of simple ordinance ask
ing the use Of the streets for the purpose
of piping heat and light to be used in
the new buildings to be located at the
intersection of Sixth and Cedar streets.
The applicants were Luther S. Cushing
and George E. Cabot, trustees, represent
ing Mr.. Endicott and other Eastern CAPT.
talists.
This was later withdrawn and In its
place substituted one calling for . twen-
ty-ive-year franchise and granting to the
parties named the privilege of using the
public streets for the purpose of convey
ing light, heat and power and disposing
of the same. Attached was the char
ter provision reimbursing the city for
the grant to the extent of per cent of
it's gross earnings. At the last meeting
of the board Of aldermen the ordinance
was passed unanimously, little attention
being given to 1t.
At the meeting of the committee yes
terday representatives Of the company
were present to urge It's immediate APP
prevail on the ground that delay would
inconvenience them, and 1t was this that
brought to light the fact that the owners
of the Endicott block and the two build
ings to be erected on Sixth and Cedar
streets were contemplating entering the
heating and lighting field in opposition
to the st. Paul Gas Lighting company.
Mr.. Townsend, one of the representa-
tives present, stated that the company
had already arranged for the heating and
lighting of buildings in their near vi
entity, the idea being to dispose of any
overplus Of steam and light that remain
ed after taking care of their own build
ings. At present the use of Sixth, c.
dar and Seventh streets was only de-
sired, on the latter thoroughfare arrange
ments having been made for heating and
lighting the California Wine house
More business was expected, and as it
came, application would be made for
the use Of other streets. The company
was agreeable to the per cent gross
earnings provision and anything else rea-
sonable that the council might impose
Owing to the fact that the ordinance
will have to lay over ten days, no con-
sideration was given to it except to in
struct the promoters to furnish the mem
bers with copies of the ordinance that
they might examine it. The ordinance
was drawn UP by the corporation attor-
ney and at the meeting yesterday that
gentleman was present to answer ques-
TONS
AS the company concerned is amply
prepared to carry out any work that 1t
undertakes, it is probable that the fran
chise will be granted. A company some
months ago made an effort to secure a
heating and lighting franchise, but the
members of the council were not satisfied
as to the financial backing of the concern
and it was refused

Conductors STILL BUSY
BUSINESS WILL NOT BE FINISHED
BEFORE TOMORROW
u NIGHT
ELECTION OF THE OFFICERS
Considerable Speculation as to Per-
sonnet of New OmciaIs-AuxiI-
larry Put In O Busy
Day.

The convention of the Order of Rail-
way Conductors will close, in all prob
ability, Wednesday night Grand Chief
Conductor Clark last night stated that
he thought all the business would be
wound up by that time. Asked wnen
the officers for the ensuing years would
be elected, he said:
To date there has been no talk in the
convention proper about the election of
officers, though, of course outside of
the convention hall there has been con-
siderable speculation as to who they will
be. The matter will not come up until
Wednesday, when it will be settled in
short order.
AS to the work of today most of the
time has been spent reading proposed
amendments to the bylaws for the
third time. I do not think that anything
OF great public interest vas discussed
today. The third reading of the home
matter was not heard today, as was ex-
Feeted, but it will come up tomorrow
and then be settled. Relative to the Sc
lection of city for the convention of
1903, that is something which comes up,
as a general rule; with the election of
officers. 1t was expected at first that
the business of the convention would be
wound up Tuesday night, but that is
now utterly out OF the question. 1t takes
long while to give every proposed law
that comes up three readings and the
discussions take up much of the time
Yesterday was general caucus day
among the conductors The delegations
from the New England states, Penn

cuses, presumably for the purpose of de-
termintng what candidates to indorse.

the club rooms Many were present and
they expressed surprise at the arrange

Mandolin and Guitar club and the Met

was an address by James Burdick,
Shutdown drill by large class, a "1ie-
down drill" and boxing, bowling, wrest-
ling, and other forms of athletics, all
of which was entertaining.

ENEMIES OF GROWING WHEAT.
Bulletin on Insects Issued by the
Government

The department Of agriculture has just
issued a bulletin on the principal insect
enemies of growing wheat. 1t says:
There are many insects which feed on
and injure growing wheat but the great
er proportion Of the losses to wheat fields
chargeable to insects is due to the at
tackS of less than half a dozen species.
The most destructive Of these pests is
the chinch bug. The great damage to
farm crops by this insect is due to its
wide distribution, it's prevalence more or
less every year, the enormous mult1plca-
ton In favorable seasons, and to the
fact that it attacks all the cereals and
most forage plants.
The next in Importance Is the Hessian
fly. 1t is estimated that the damage to
the wheat crop by this pest is about 10
per cent of the product in the chief
wheat-growing sections Of this country,
which indicates an annual loss of 4VO0),-
600 bushels and over. Next Of Importance
are the wheat nudge and grain plant lice.
Insects of second-rate Importance are the
wheat straw worms, the wheat bulb
worm, army worms, cutworms, and var
ious saWfiies
With the view Of limiting the losses
from insect pests, and notably the Hes
sian fly, the ravages Of which in 1899
1900 so reduced the normal yield of wheat
as to seriously interfere with the winter
milling interests, the United States de-
partment of agriculture has had prepar-
ed and will soon issue Farmers Bulletin
NO l32, entitled, The Pr1nc1pa1 Insect
Enemies Of Growing Wheat" >.
The bulletin was prepared by Mr.. c..
L. Marlatt, M. S., first assistant ento-
mologist, and it is a condensed account
of the principal insect depredators on
growing wheat, d .scussed chiefly from the
standpoint of means of control. A brief
presentation of the life histories Of the
several species Is given, with special ref
erence to the bearing Of rened- al and pre-
ventive measures.
The reasons given for the excessive
damage by the various grain pests noted
in this country are the system Of grow
ing the same grain crops over vast areas
year after year, which furnishes the very
best conditions for the multiplication Of
the insect enemies of such crops, and the
long, hot summers which also present the
most favorable conditions GF the IN
crease of most insects. These two rea-
sons are responsible for the much greater
losses experienced in this country as COM
pared with Europe, where the summers
are cool and short.
The losses occasioned by these insects
exhibit wide range in different years,
due as a rule to favorable or unfavorable
climatic conditions, and also to the
abundance from time to time of the
parasitic and other enemies, which is a
natural sequence of the multiplication of
the host insects. Preventives and rem
edies for control of each of these insects
are given.
