stolen from his stable here on Friday
night, October 4th, was delighted yes
terday at seeing a stranger ride him up
to his front door. The pretty animal
had been found in the forest near Mos
cow Mills, Md. last Tuesday by Joseph
Coleman, farmer. Mr.. Coleman
turned the horse into his pasture to
await developments and on Saturday
learned that the horse belonged to Mr..
Davis. Yesterday he rode him over to
Keyser and received the reward of $25
offered for his return. The animal
when found had part of the bride on
his head. and it is believed that the
thief stopped off in the mountains to
hide during the day, and that he could
not get on the horse when he returned,
as the animal is extremely difficult for
strangers to approach. The saddle has
not yet been found.

is now in progress Barrett was a
prominent liveryman and popular

bankrupt and then a number of notes
of which he was the maker became due.
The endorsers on most, of them were
J. r. Barrett, his father, and A j..
Hannaman. his brother n-law. They
denied having endorsed the notes and
say their names we're forged. A num-
Der of indictments were found against
Barrett on notes alleged to have been
forged, aggregating about $4,000. The
specific case on which he is being tried
is for an alleged forgery of $3.50 note

DEVELOPING WATER POWER.

Niagara Falls is not the only grcat
possibility in the way of immense
water power available for the genera
ton of electricity and the transporta-
ton of power a considerable distance.
Two other vast water power plants are
in operation or in process of compile
ton. which will play a considerable
part in the industrial development of
the country. One of these, also in
New York State. started a few days
ago is described by the New York
Journal of Commerce. Its power is
generated by the rapids in the st.
Lawrence at Massena in the northern
part of st. Lawrence county. At Ma
CARA the fall is greater. but the volume
of water used is not so great, and it
is claimed that greater power is de-
/ veloped at Massena. Five million dol
lars has been spent al this point. and
the power canal is 265 feet wide, %
feet deep and , miles long. Seventy
five thousand horsepower is said to be
produced. .....:-
Another instance of the Harvesting
of nature it at the falls in the St
Mays river, where Lake Superior
empties into the lower lakes. which
has long been regarded only as an OBJ
staele to navigation. The United
States has built successfully three
locks to enable commerce to get around
these falls, and the Dominion has
made two in order to maintain its alb
, solute independence of the United
States. Now vast sum of money ia
being expended in the erection Of a
power plant at that point which will
probably considerably exceed either
Niagara or Messena. Much of the
power at st. Mary's river will be used
in making wood pulp from the spruce
forests of Canada.

TuF TIIRyTNC POINT.

The turn OF the tide in the Schley
INQUIRY has come. All the evidence the
naval clique, which for three years has
been engaged in the conspiracy against
him. could rake and scrape up from
every hole and corner has been pre-
scented and exploited to the utmost, and
the testimony against Schley is all in
How futile has been the attempt TO
discredit this gallant officer is shown
by the evidence. which reveals the
vieiousness of the plot to rob the real
hero of his laures. Ii is easy to trace
the ramifcations of this conspiracy in
the various stories told on the witness
stand. Thanks to the absolute fairness
of Admiral Dewey the attempt to make
a case against Schley whether or no
has failed and the attempts of the con-
spirators to doctor the testimony has
been steadily frustrated They stand
convicted out of the mouths of their
own witnesses.
The conspiracy evidently dated back
of the active days of the Santiago cam
paign to the time when Schley was
superseded by Sampson. 1t would ap-
pear that there was deliberate effort
to place Schley lin hole, regardless
of the consequences to the American
feet II has been shown that the prin-
cipa means of obtaining information
which were possessed by even young
on the minor vessels of
the feet were not intrusted to Admiral
Schley. who was in command before
Admiral Sampson appeared on the
scene. 1t seems evident that many
the various vessels to prepare testi-
mony in advance against the command
ing officer. At least such is the inevi-
table inference from the testimony of
these young men who have sworn to
statements which have been contra
dicted by their superiors, by the logs
of the vessels on which they sailed and
by the official records.
History contains nothing more infa-
nous that this deliberate attempt to
blacken the name of one of the brav-
est and best officers in the American
navy.
1t is a pity the jurisdiction of the
present court of inquiry is SO limited
that it cannot probe this foul conspir-
acy to the very bottom and expose the
real eulprits. This, however, is wthi1
the province of Congress, and it is
evident that the whole miserable affair
will be ventilated unless some powerful
pressure is brought to bear to choke
off a congressional investigation.
