 The Jag Cars begin running in Sixth avenue at 2 o'clock in the morning, and in Broadway a little later. These are closed vehicles, with entrance and exit by means of the rear platform. The company soon learned, after open cars were put on at the beginning of summer, that nearly all accidents occurring in the early hours were due to drunken passen- gers endeavoring to get on and off the rnguarded seats. It being manifestly inn possible for the conductor to patrol the footboard in way to protect all the cross

pr. DeidrIch Not Marooned, But Left
 to Recover.

Portland. Me. September 26.-Mrs. Peary, wife of Lieutenant Pcary who has just returned to South Portland. has promptly denied the report that Dr. Deidrick was marooned. He positively refused to go back and said he would stay with party of natives. It was not deemed proper to attempt to compel him peculiar mental state.
 It was thought possibly he might re- cover if left on shore, but in the opinion of Dr. Cook he was in danger of becom- ing violently insane if taken back.

Power of Congress Against Ana rchism


 Congress may not be able to bring acts against the head of the State within the constitutional definition of treason, although one who strikes at the Chief Executive strikes at the State, which Is war; but no strained construction is necessary. Congress possesses ample power to pass all needful and appropriate legislation for the protection of the officials of the United States from the President down to the humblest tidewaiter.
 This is not new question. It came up in distinct form when Justice Fields life was threatened by David s. Terry on account of decision Justice Field had rendered in a case involving Miss Hill, who afterwards became Mrs. Terry. The United States marshal of California appointed deputy marshal to accompany Justice Field while at- tending to his duty as circuit judge, for the purpose of protecting him from assault on the part of Terry. In a railroad eating house Terry met Jus tice Field, and 1t became necessary on the part of the deputy marshal to kill Terry in order to preserve the life of Justice Field. When the deputy marshal was brought before the State courts a writ of habeas corpus was taken out from the United States Cir cult Court, and in that way the case was carried to the Supreme Court.
 Justice Miller delivered the opinion of the court, and in the course of the lengthy opinion he shows that a gov ernment which within its sphere is sovereign and supreme must have the power to protect it's officials. We give his words at the conclusion of the opinion of the court:
 "The result at which we have arrived upon this examination is that in the pro- tection of the person and the life of MT. Justice Field while In the discharge of his official duties. Neagle was authorized to resist the attack of Terry upon him; that Neagle was correct in the belief that, without prompt action on his part, the assault of Terry upon the judge would have ended in the death of the latter; that such being his well-founded belief, he was justified in taking the life of Terry as the only means of preventing the death of the man who was intended to be his victim; that fin taking the life of Terry under the circumstances, he was acting under the authority of the law of the United States and was justi- fled In so doing. and that he Is not liable to answer in the courts of California on account of his part in that transaction"
 So without reference to the techni- cal definition of treason in the con- stitution Congress possesses abundant power to protect the President and all other officials Whatever Congress deems necessary in this connection will be held constitutional, and the subject should be dealt with next win ter with calmness it Is true, but also with breadth and careful detail in the hope of putting an end to the assas- sinations that have stained our na. tional life. The subject Is one of such deep importance, that it rises above party, and all good men in and out of Congress will aid in finding suitable and appropriate remedies against the evil that periodically threatens the land

rendered to him by the president, and IL
is understood he will accept it. Defin-
ite and formal announcement to this
effect may be expected in a few days.
This information may be regarded as
authoritative. 1t was obtained late last
night with the utmost difficulty For
reasons best known to those concerned
in making the proffer Of the honor to
Judge Doyle it was desired not to give
publicity to 1t befCrs the matter was
finally settled, and ths secret was well
guarded by the few WHO shared in it.
There is no reason for anticipating
that the ToledoaT. will decline the place.
On the contrary, it is expected that his
acceptance will be received by the
president before the end Of the week.
TIL judgeship, therefore, goes to Mr..
Doyle as Il New Years gift. The posi-
ton pays $4,000 year and Is of life
tenure.

ing Upon Relatives In
This City.

Isaac B. Neville is once more free
man. Neville is the aged colored man
who was charged with robbing the safe
in the clerks office last fall. He pleaded
guilty to the charge and was sent to the
penitentiary for one year. Good be-
havior shortened his term in the pen.
to ten months, and he came to this city
and mingled with relatives Immediately
after his release.
Isaac has aged very much since his
incarceration. In fact, he was an old
man when he was sent away. Before
being taken away Neville stated that
he did not steal the money of his own
volition, but that friends constantly be-
sieged him to take what he could and
turn 1t over to them. He confessed his
crime and the court had mercy on him
and he was given a minimum sentence
A portion of the money, 1t Is said, was
returned to the county by friends.
Isaac was trusted almost implicitly
by citizens as well as officials, and was
the last person to be suspected Of the
crime. However, a trap was set for him
and he was apprehended with some Of
the stolen money in his possession.
Isaac has reformed and Is exceedingly
repentant. and he expects to lead a life
in future that will make reparation for
any wrong which may have been COM
mitted.

LOOKS like mac
A MOST STRIKING RESEMBLANCE.
When DR.. Luther Hazard Bugbee
Appears on the Street PeO-
pie Take Off Their Hats.

President McKinley's double" shook
hands with the president the other day.
The visitor was DR.. Luther Bugbee, of
New York. He has been mistaken for
the president so often that he wanted
to see for himself just how the presi-
dent looked. When he shook hands
with the president he explained the
object of his visit. From q side view
of the face the resemblance was con-
sidered marvellous by many of those
who witnessed the interview, but front
view was not so striking.
"It is a great honor TO be like the
president but 1t Is an awful annoyance
to have people making the mistake
all the time. In Washington it is diff
ferent from in other cities. People don't
bother me here except to look curiously
at me as I sit in the hotel or walk the
streets. Occasionally they lift their
hats in dignified salute, but rarely mo-
lest me. Several have approached me
to request favors, practical jokers hav-
ing told them l was the president. In
other cities, especially If the president
happens to be in the same place / am
in, have much trouble. Once or twice
the police had to almost rescue me from
mobs of curiosity seekers. l guess l

graphs than like the president himself.

preached me and offered to vote for
me. / took it all good-naturedly for
some time. Finally big, policeman
came up to me one day just as 1 was
about ready to catch street car. Mr..
Mckinley he said in the most respect
full manner, pardon me, but we are all
going to vote for you.'
His interruption had caused me to
miss the car, and with some i'll temper
I said: Vote and be damned!

TO THE PACIFIC COAST.
McKinIey's Proposed Trip Through tho
South VIII be Interesting.

AS visit to the Pacific coast, Presi-
dent McKinley's journey next May will
be commonly spoken of, says the st.
Louis Gobe-Democrat. But the Pa
cific coast is by no means the only OBJ
jective. When the time comes the coun.
try will realize that the presidents pas
sage through the south is no minor
incidental part of the program. The
southern route has been chosen because
it is especially attractive for the month
in which the journey out will be made,
and because it is the special wish Of tho
president to travel through the southern
states. 1t would be difficult to estimate
how many thousands Of expressions OF
satisfaction with the result of the elec-
tion have come from the south to the
white house. Throughout the cam.
paign, beginning with the renominatiop
at Philadelphia no small part Of the

ters from southern men, setting out
their earnest hope for his re- election and
declaring regret that they could not
make their votes tell to that end. In
the avalanche of congratulations which
followed the returns, the south was
heard from in no uncertain tone and in
no small measure. And now the presi.
dent is going to open his second add
mlnistration with such a tour of tha
south as no president has made since
the civil war. His reception as he goes
from city to city will make that part Of
the journey no less interesting and
significant than the visit to the coast.

engineers Licenses.
Chief Examiner Collier Says New
Law Has Resulted In An
Advance.

''The first year of the operation Of the
law requiring the licensing of station
ary engineers has proved the wisdom of
its passage" said Chief Examiner Col
ller at Columbus Monday. "At first
there was considerable opposition to
it's enforcement. but that Is all over
now, and 1t is firmly fixed on the
statute books. The employers of engi-
neers who We're against 1t at first, have
come around and every day we get let
ters from them saying that they will
employ none but licensed engineers.
"The law has resulted in the advance
in the education of engineers. Now
since 1t is necessary that they be well
up in the requirements of their profess
sion, they are studying, and the result
is that they are up to date. When the
law went into effect 1t was estimated
that there were about $4,000 engineers
in the state. The clause eXempting. en-
gineers operating boilers of under So
horse power from the provisions of the
law cut out great many and left about
II, 900 subject to the examination. OF
these about 5000 have been examined,
and 1t will not be long until all the en-
gineers in the state are in the fold. We
will ask the legislature to extend the law
so as to include all the engineers in the
state, no matter what the size of the
boiler operated, and also to provide for
state inspection of boilers. With these
amendments Ohio will have an engi-
neers' law that will be as good as any
in the country, and the danger from
boiler explosions will be reduced to
minimum"

Sfttfis VA tndt Citys
Mr.. Green Is special pension exam
finer and has just returned from WASH
ington. He charges the officials with
gross neglect of duty resulting in the
death of his son, Hobart Green, a well
known young man in Sandusky. Hobart
Green died on December Ia, the cause of
death being pneumonia. He was sick
but two days. He answered q sick call
on the 18th and on the 18th was unable
to go. 1t is alleged that he was hauled
out of his hammock and forced to march
In the ranks, although he was unable to
drill. On the morning of the 18th he
was very sick and became delirious. An
extra guard was stationed to watch
him. notwithstanding the fact that he
was not expected TO live the deck was
washed down as usual, stream of
water being turned on, and the floor
scrubbed, while the raving young man
lay in a hammock. He died before mid
night that day.
1t is further alleged that the young
man had no medical attention; that the
food furnished the seamen was unfit
for dog to eat; that there was no heat
on the berth deck, and the hatchways
were Opt1l, eNDOSlllS lHe men, lnClutlIS
the sick ones, to cold draughts.
This in brief Is the story told by rela-
tives. Congressman Rixey, of Virginia,
will demand an investigation. Mr..
Green said today:
II was in Washington last Thursday
and an investigation concerning the
death of my son will be commenced at
once. 1 strongly object to the way he
was treated at the naval academy dur
ing his illness from pneumonia. l saw
all my congressional friends, and John
F. Rixey, congressman from the Eighth
district of Virginia, will start an in
vestigation. In fact, / have been
strongly urged to have this done. as
there are many other parents who have
sons In the service of the United States,
and If my son died because of neglect,
which from other marines have learn
ed to be true, l feel IL my duty to have
this matter thoroughly investigated
that the government may rid itself of
improper officials"
