OVER SCHOOL LAND TITLES.
Attorney General Says State Owns What
Union Pacific Has.

Topeka, Aug. 12.-There are several
thousand acres of school lands in wes-
tern Kansas to which both the state of
Kansas and the Union Pacific railway
lay claim. According to an opinion of
Attorney General GODDARD, the lands be-
long to the state, and purchasers do not
have to deal with the Union Pacific rail
way. 1t is the first time this interest
ing question has been raised.
The question hinged upon the right of
the state under the act of congress, adj
hitting Kansas to the Union. This att
was approved January 90, 1861, and
granted to the state sections 16 and SO
in every township of public lands in the
state, for the use of schools. BY act of
congress, approved July l, 1862, the
Union Pacific railway was granted a
right of way through the public lands,
and the right of way included num-
Der of sections previously granted to the
state for school purposes. According
to the attorney general, congress had no
power to grant right of way over or
through these sections, after the state
had accepted the propositions contained
in the act of admission, and after survey
and definite location of sections number
16 and SO had been made.

buns OPTIMISTIC REPORT.
Increased Importation of Tin the
Only Bad Feature.
VOLUME OF TRADE SATISFIES.

New York, Aug 12.-R. G. Dun's
weekly review says:
There is no complaint from any part
Of the country over the volume of cur
rent distribution of merchandise and
what hesitation is observed in general
trade is chiefly due to the uncertainty
of the duration of the labor troubles in
in the steel manufacture. Collections
good, better weather has helped the
agriculture classes, money is easy; and
stocks of merchandise carried are not
above the average for this season of the
year, particularly in the west and
southwest. Relief is felt in all de-
partments of the iron and steel indus
try, now that uncertainty is ended and
the position of the contestants made
clear.
A bad feature is the increased impor-
tation of tin plates, which had been
manufactured in sufficient quantity to
about meet the domestic demand, i'm
ports in the last fiscal year being valued
at only S3,77O, O62, against S35, FAC, 900
ten years ago.
Having no further ammunition in
heat and drouth reports for hosting
prices. spectators have turned sudden
ly to the other extreme and demonstrate
that early frosts threaten all late plant
ed corn.
A healthy demand from domestic
millers and phenomenal Atlantic eX-
ports gave strength to prices of wheat.
As the season advances it becomes more
apparent that foreign crop losses will
necessitate unprecedented shipments
from the United States and with the
settlement of the strike on the Pacific
coast there will be a movement of great
magnitude. Eastern shoe manufactur-
ers find conditions as favorable as last
week, while reports from the west are
more encouraging. Orders from the
drouth affected regions are no longer
countermanded, and earlier cancella-
lions are being restored.
Prospects continue to improve in the
market for wooden goods. Little
change is seen in actual sales, but there
is a growing disposition to hold for the
better terms that many in the trade
consider inevitable.

I'm. FEDERATION OF LABOR
Pledges Moral and Financial Sup
b port to Steel Workers.
McKEESP0RT WILL SUFFER.

Pittsburg, Pa, Aug. 12.-An impor-
was the peremptory order to dismantle
the Devices Wood plant at McKeesport,
and it's removal to the Kiskiminetas val
ley.
The steel officials declined to give any
treason for the order, but it is openly
stated here that the pronounced sympa-
thy of citizens and city officials at Nc
Keesport is responsible for it. 1t is also
said that the plant of the National Tube
company at McKeesport will be aban-
doned.
The Devices Wood plant was founded
about forty years ago, and is one of the
best known plants in Pennsylvania. Its
yards and mills cover between ~ and
IA acres it has employed 200 men at its
busiest times and its cost is placed at
s5,oOo,OoO by officials of the steel cor
poration.
President Gompers of the American
Federation of Labor, after a two days
conference with President Shaffer and
his associates issued formal statement
specifically pledging the Federation to
the moral and financial support of the
Amalgamated association. His written
view of the train of events leading up
to industrial quarrel sustains the course
of the Amalgamated association and de-
clares that nothing remains for labor
but to battle for the cause of unionism.
President Gompers would not say just
what the Federation of Labor proposed
to do, or in fact anything beyond what
was contained in the written statement
issued by him. 1t is presumed, how
ever, that all of the Federation men en-
gagged in the iron and steel trades will
be called out at the request of the Anal
Pamated men,

GEN. MACARTHUR'S REPORT.
Gives Very Interesting Facts and Figures
Concerning Philippine Affairs

Washington, Aug. 10.-The annual
report of Maj. Gen. Macarthur, covering
the period from Oct. l, 1900, the date of
his last report, to July 4, 1901, when
se relinquished the command of the
division, is just received at the war
department.
He reviews the policy of the Filipinos
who were hostile to the Americans, say
ing that their action since the practical
collapse of the instruction has been
carried on by means of secret commit
tees who collected contributions, in
fiicted punishment and carried on con-
tinual warfare against the Americans.
The education of the people in times
past made them suspicious of any gov
eminent and they evidently looked
upon the lenient attitude of the United
States as indicating weakness.
General Macarthur says the procla-
nation issued on December 20, formally
declaring the intention of the United
States to hold the islands and to have
the laws obeyed had a good effect, and
the secret organizing was much abated.
On Oct. /, 1900, the army occupied
Alb stations, which was of necessity
increased to 5O2 stations, every COM
mander being in contact with some
hostile force. He speaks of the good
service of the army.
Gen. Macarthur gives the following
statistics from May 5, 1900, to June 80,
1901, during which time there were
1,026 contacts between American troops
and insurgents, which show the cas-
ualties on both sides:
Americans Killed, PAS; captured,
11s: missing, 20.
Insurgents-Killed, 1854; wounded,

Reno district fled upon the quarter
section upon which the Hobart railroad
depot is located. No. 2 got as near
Hobart as he could. The majority of

That region was considered among the
