CHURCH PROPERTY.
Archbishop Kahn Brings Suit to
Clear Title to Immaculate Con
ceptiOn Grounds.

Archbishop Kahn instituted proceedings In
the Circuit Court yesterday to clear the title
to the Immaculate Conception Church prop
erty, at jefferson avenue and Locust street,
to which there is not a clear title. because
members OF the parish deny his right to
sell the property and use the proceeds in
membranes on the property which have
not been satisfied on the records, and also
because of the wording of the deed by which
Ann Lucas Hunt conveyed the property to
Archbishop Kenrick.

PHILIPPINES ARE
DOMESTIC TERRITORY.
No More Export Bonds to Be Ac-
cepted by Treasury Department
Collectors Instructions.

Collector of Internal Revenue II. c. Gren-
ner yesterday received from Commissioners
J. W. Yerkes at Washington, d. c., a tele-
gram announcing an important decision Of
the Treasury Department, and one which
will be received with alarm in many quar-
tiers. The telegram reads:
Accept no more export bonds on goods
for Philippine Islands Require payment of
tax on goods destined for the Philippines,
treating them as domestic territory. Cancel
no export bonds already approved on Phil
ippine Island shipments until further d.
rected."
According to Mr.. Grenner's Interpretation
of the telegram, this means that the
Treasury Department has decided that he
Philippine Islands are domestic territory, a
part of the United States. Just as Missouri
is. and subject to the same revenue regula-
lions. The question of the status of the
Stands Is now pending in the Supreme
Court of the United States.
By this ruling of the department every
article exported to the Islands will have to
pay a tax in advance. ST. Louis brewers,
who have recently opened up a prosperous
market In the new possessions, will feel
this new order keenly, as every barrel OF
liquor sent to the Philippine Islands will be
taxed N.6o. just the same as IL 1t was
shipped to Illinois. Tobacco manufacturers
also will have a heavy additional tax to
pay as the eApoEtS VI tOUdCcO 10 Tue new
possessions in the Pacific are very large.
1t is declared by an official connected with
the revenue department at Washington that
the brewers of the country are largely re-
sponsible for the new ruling. The brewer
are large importers of barley. hops and
other ingredients used in the manufacture
of malt liquors. Under the ruling of the
department., the brewers were entitled to q
drawback of the customs duties imposed on
these imports. when the finished product
was exported. About a month ago the de-
partment ordered these drawbacks discon-
tinued. and the brewers have since made
such a vigorous protest that the Treasury
Department officials made a thorough In
vestigation Of the situation. and discov-
cred that under the former ruling the Phil
ippines were accounted domestic territory,
as respects the customs duties regulations.
and foreign territory as regards exports. In
order to be consistent, therefore, the de-
partment decided to treat the islands as do
nestle territory from every standpoint. In
der this Interpretation the brewers may
secure a renewal Of the draw lacks, which
amounts to an infinitesimal sum annually
In comparison with the tax they will be
compelled to pay on their exported product.

Dun's Declares There Was Never
Before Such Well-Sustained
Activity in Manufacturing
and All Leading Lines
of Merchandise.

New York. Nov. 15.-R. G. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade tomorrow will say:
y few months ago injury to the corn crop
aroused fears that the railroads would be seri-
ously handicapped by the loss Of tonnage, yet the
se1son OF grain traffic has not only failed to
produce decreased earnings, but there is such q
scarcity of rolling stock and motive power that
numerous industries are badly demoralized. In
30 far as these interests are concerned, the re-
auction In corn freight proves a blessing. Rail-
way earnings in October were 13 per cent
greater than last year and 21.2 per cent over
1899. while these roads reporting for the first
week Of November showed an average gain Of 9.s
per cent A healthy demand is reported through
out the country In all leading lines of merchan-
disc. while sales OF winter goods have attained
normal proportions, and holiday business prom
ises to surpass all records. In manufacturing
there was never before such well-sustained ac-
tfvity. with contracts running past the middle
Of next year. This Is especially true in the case
of steel rails and many other products Of iron.
while in building material, felt, footwear and
most textile branches there is little prospect Of
idleness. Money circulates freely, making col
lections satisfactory in most sections. Unprece-
dented conditions in the iron and steel industry
are shown by the statistics OF pig iron on No
vember /. as published by the Iron Age. Fur
naces in blast were producing at the rate Of $780,
SCI tons weekly. which far surpasses all previous
records. With a production OF 10000 tons weekly
above the previous top point it might be expected
that supplies would increase. or at least remain
stationary. On the contrary, furnace stocks on
November 1 were 30. Isl tons. or much less than
a single weeks output. and a decrease OF Ss.342
for the month of October. Failures for week, s5

ADMITS THAT he
IS Ben FITZPATRICK,
Chief Desmond Is Confident He
Has Established Identity of
His Famous Prisoner.

The train-robber suspect under arrest at
the Four Courts admitted TO Chief Of De-
~tectives Desmond last night that he is Ben
Fitzpatrick. n brother of Daniel Fitzpatrick.
the notorious Texas bandit. Both were
members Of the gang of train robbers which
was led hy "Bilr' Carver, who was killed
last spring.
Sheriff Il. u. Kirk of oallinger, Runnels
County. Tex. telegraphs that he is certain
from the picture sent there that the suspect
is Ben Fitzpatrick. Sheriff James Z. Howe
of Concho County writes that he is abso-
lutely sure the suspect is Ben Fitzpatrick.
In the letter he inciosed a photograph of
fitzpatrick, taken three or four years ago.
II is quite a good picture of the man at
the -Four Courts. and when he saw it in
Chief Desmond's hands he admitted that
it was a photograph of himself.
Sheriff Howe writes that he never saw
Laura Bullion. who was arrested here with
Fitzpatrick. but that he has learned that she
was reared at kMckerbocker, a small town
about thirty-five miles from there. He
said her picture in The Republic had been
identified there. and there was no question
but that she was the woman, though they
have no evidence down there that she has
ever committed a crime.
fitzpatrick was sweated last night. and he
was more communicative than ever. He ad-
mitted that he was reared near Paint Rock,

FAINTER PLEADED GUILTY..
Post Office Stamping Clerk Fined
$500 and Lectured.

Herman FAINTER, the young postal clerk
arrested last Saturday for tampering with
letters. was arraigned in the United States
District Court yesterday for trial. Fainter
pleaded guilty. The testimony of the post
office inspectors. who made the arrest,
showed that they had detected Fainter
opening letters In his division. Some OF
the letters he opened contained money. but
he did not take the money, resealing the
envelopes after he had examined their con-
tents.
Postmaster Bapmhoff testified that Fainter
had been In the service about six years. ard
he had always regarded him as a conscien-
tious, honest, Woodworking employe. He
spoke In high terms of the youth.
FAINTER, when asked what he had to say,
admitted that he had opened several let
tiers, but said he was not actuated by dis.
honest motives. His curiosity to know the
nature of their contents, he said, impelled
him to open them, despite his better judy.
ment.
Judge Adams read the defendant a severe
lecture. dwelling upon the gravity of the
ofrense. He said he was unable to fathom
the motives which prompted the culprit to
the act. but. in lieu of any better explana-
ton. would ascribed II to an overweening
and culpable curiosity, rather than to GRIM
inal intent. He then imposed a fine of $500,
but made no further order in the case,
which. under the practice obtaining in the
Federal courts. Is tantamount to a stay
of execution. pending good behavior.

know anything OF 1t until after she hao
left the place. Mrs. Arthur said she had
not treated Miss Leeker. and did not re-
member seeing her.
Doctor Hochdoerfer. the autopsy physl-
clan. In his report, filed at the Coroners
office yesterday. states that he found ar
senic In the stomach, but that was due to
the presence of embalming fluid. Miss Lee
ker's relatives stated Thursday night that
her body had not been embalmed. but that
was a mistake. Thus, the poison being &C
counted for. there was no other cause Oh
death but the septic peritonitis.
Clark was detected last night and ex-
pressed deep regret that any such mistake
should have been made. II she had lived,
