E.B. SANGER'S HOME IN QUESTION
ARGUMENTS IN CASE BROUGHT TO TEST
HIS ELIGIBILITY AS A GRAND JUROR.

Before Recorder Golf in Part of the Court OF
General Sessions yesterday Lewis Stuyvesant
Chanler made a motion in the larceny case OF
Rachel Cook colored to test the eligibility of the
November grand jury. in which Eugene B. Sanger
sat The Cook woman had pleaded guilty. but had
been allowed to withdraw the plea so that the test
motion could be made.
mont. The only possible reason why he had be-
come member OF the grand jury was that he had
an Office in New-York and sometimes slept In this
city. 1t undoubtedly true. on the strength OF
Mr. Sanger's own affidavit that ne voted last No
vember in Larchmont, after registering there in
October. The fact that Sanger voted in another
county Mr. Chanler said, made him resident of
that county. Sanger had undoubtedly made his
domicile in Larchmont. he contended
Assistant District Attorney Ordway argued for
the District Attorneys Office that it was clearly
Mr. Sangers intention to remain resident of this
county and that he had signihed his intention to
retain his domicile here. He said Sangers name
was taken from the city jury list, according to
law and if he qualified to be petit juror and
on that list. he qualified to be grand juror
Sanger he said. had not lost any legal rights 1t
was a question of legal domicile and not OF resi-
dence. Many men had undoubtedly served on
grand juries within recent years who were In ex-
actly the same position Sanger. and he In
ferred that this would be ground for numerous
habeas corpus proceedings in the cases OF men
now serving terms in prison. Such a question as
this Mr.. Ordway said should have been brought up
grand jury not after that body had done its work,

PROTECTION UNTIL DECEMBER 81
The report that the Police Department had sent

facts yesterday. The poolrooms and gambling
houses were in full blast It said by those
who are in a position to know that the Tammany

graft, and that things will full blast until the
last The tip has gone out, so 1T is said, to

because the present Tammany clique which has
protected the gamblers and poolroom operators can
promise nothing beyond that date In other words.

since the election a great many gambling house
keepers and pooroom operators had become excep

and that the combine had lost heavily result.
These gamblers so this man said, pointed out tnat
they could not expect continued protection from the
combine and would pay no longer. To threats or
raids they retorted you raid now, what will
people say? They will say you waited unt!t after
viii! .squear and tell the whole graft. we have
to shut up, anyhow, soon" The combine has oeen
compelled to take this threat They cannot raid and
they cannot bully. and fully one-haf of the pool

ability Of adopting universal label for union
made goods were the principal questions that
claimed the attention of the delegates to-day s
sessions of the American Federation of Labor. The
resolution advocating the exclusion Of the Chinese
was adopted with CONSIDERABLE hurrah. but in the
matter Of excluding natives of Japan and other
Astatic lands action was taken The burden or
the remarks of those opposed to the Japanese
resolution that Chinese immigration was the
greater evil of the two, and that to insist upon
some law to prevent a Japanese invasion might
endanger the passage by Congress of the Chinese
act.
J. II. Bowman, Of Chicago, took a humanitarian
view of the question Of Japanese immigration He
said that organized labor was making an e1ort
to elevate the workingmen of the world. and ne
thought 1t more than right to stick to the prn-
ciple and elevate the Japanese mechanics. He
maintained that they should be educated and
taught to work for union wages.
The convention went on record as opposing any
anti ticket scalping legislation by Congress A
resolution pedgng the federation to use all honor

KIondllke King Honored

Alex. Mcdonald who seven years
ago was one of the best known work
ing miners of Aspen, Colorado, has had
signal honors conferred on him at
Dawson City, in the Klondille.
A few weeks ago Mr.. Mcdonald was
made knight of st. Gregory by author
ity of n special letter from the Pope
Mrs. Mcdonald, kneeling beside him
before the chancel railing of st. Ma
ry's church, pinned the insignia of the
order upon his breast. The presenta-
ton was made by Rev. Father Cen
dreau, who secured this signal honor
for the Klondike gold miner after long
correspondence with Rome, in the
course of which he pointed out Mr..
McDonald's generous benefactions to
the church at Dawson. The ceremony
of presentation was the most largely
attended of any service ever held in
the Klondike.
Mr.. Mcdonald is the richest miner in
the Klondike. His wealth is estimdt-
ed at S5,OOO0O0. and he is commonly
known as the king OF the Klondike." +"
Prior to six years ago he was worker
in the mines of Aspen. Then he left
Colorado to seek his fortune in the far
North. He was working at the Tread
well mine in Alaska when the first
KlonGike excitement broke out and
was among the first to locate claims
on Eldorado and Bonanza creeks. Az
ter striking it rich he founded the
Dawson hospital during the winter of
1898, and also gave $4,000 in gold
dust aud nuggets toward building st.
Mary's Catholic church.
The decoration of st. Gregory has
been previously conferred upon only
two other Canadians, former Prime
Minister MERCER and former Governor
Chnpleau, both of Quebec.

CasneCie's Big Trees.

On the grounds around his new man

street. in New York, Andrew Carnegie
has set out n grove of large trees,
some of which are seventeen inches in
diameter. Among the twenty-nine
trees moved are twelve sugar naples,
three elms, five poplars and one silver
leafed maple. Landscape garden
ers say these trees are the largest ever
transplanted. They We're brought on
large trucks from the borderlands of
Connecticut, having been carefully up
rooted by machinery that preserves
the fibrous roots and also protects the
branches and twigs from the slightest
injury. One tree, with the earth at
tached, weighed sixteen tons, and the
branches of one elm spread thirty feet.
All are coming into leaf with no indi-
cation of impaired vigor. Mr.. Car
negie's orders were to spare no eX-
pense to insure the utmost care.

Movement to Form WOmAn's Cross Saddle
Riding Club In Chicago.
Chicago club and society women are
not to be outdone by Bostonians and
New Workers.. A movement has been
started in that city to organize a
"Woman's Cross Saddle Riding Club"
The prime mover is Mrs. II. T.. Steele,
manager of the woman's department of
the Mutual Life Insurance Company.
1T is such an Improvement over the
old fashion," said Mrs. Steele to a re-
porter, that l am certain it will be
adopted by all of the women horse
lovers in Chicago. The movement is
sure to be popular, for it is so thor
oughly practicable. 1t rests with the
men entirely, however. If they ap-
prove the road will be easy. There are
hundreds of women in Chicago who
would like to ride cross saddle now,
but they are afraid to because OF the
universal prejudice against it. There
are many who cant ride side saddle for
physical reasons who could and would
be glad to ride cross saddle"

HIS CAR FARE CANE.
Senator Jones Is Never without Nickel
of Recent Years.

Probably the most extraordinary
cane in this country is one of goodly
proportions carried by Senator Jones,
the Nevada millionaire, and the reason
he clings to it as tenaciously as he
does is quite unique.
Many years ago Senator Jones, then
president of bank in San Francisco,
started to ride home on a street car.
When the conductor came around for
the fare Mr.. Jones discovered that he
was without n cent. He got on and
walked back to the bank, where he se-
cured handful of change. Il wish l
had a walking stick that would hold
100 nickels," he said, "and then a thing
like this would not occur"
This remark was repeated in the pres
ence of Judge Goodwin of Salt Lake
City. who started a subscription to pur-
chase the nickel-holding cane. A very
handsome walking stick of ebony,
with heavy gold head, was procured.
and the inside was followed out and
100 nickels placed therein. The cane
was later sent to Washington. where
Mr.. Jones happened to be staying, and
he carries it with him to this day.
