The Land Office
Decision Affirmed.

The United land commissioners have
affirmed the decision of the register and
receiver of the Tucson land office in the
case OF Overlook vs.. Martin o'Hare
which is in favor OF the plaintiff.
The case dates back TO last Septem Der
when Martin O'Hare applied for pa
tent to the Quarzsite Stripe mining
claim which is situated in upper Tomb
stone canyon, near the Warren steam
laundry in Bisbee. A contest was filed
by C. A. Overlook, /. w. Wallace, Tex
Campbell and others who claimed the
surface ground and contended that the
claim was non-mineral bearing. The trial
came up before the register OF the land
Office at Tucson September OF last year,
it taking two or three days to hear the
testimony. The case was taken under
advisements by that officers and a deci.
sion was given in favor OF Overlook and
others on January 18th of this year. An
appeal was taken from the ruling OF the
Tucson land Office and the case taken to
the commissioner of the general land
office at Washington with the results as
above stated, The Bisbee Review says
whether further appeal will be taken
by Mr.. O'Hare to the U. s. Supreme
court it is unable to ascertain. Mr..
O'Hare wishes to consult his attorneys
before committing himself In regard TO
the matter.

OUR DEBTOR, THE SULTAN.

The report that the Sultan was going
to settle that little bill again remarks
the Record Herald of Chicago recalls
character sketch OF this interesting mon
arch which was drawn by the sympath-
ic hand of Turkish exile. This author
ity says that His Majesty's wade mecum
and guide in statecraft is "The Prince"
by Machiavelli, and that it is work for
which he has great admiration Few
people read it now, but it is generally
understood that it is book that would
not discourage a prince from dolging any
claim, and Abdul TIamid devotion to it
is hardly promising to his American
creditors.
He lives, in fact, to deceive, and his
speciality consists in eluding political
crises. To this practice he devotes all
his energies with remarkable success,
but with terrible wear and tear upon
the nervous system. Though his mind
IS abnormallv active, he is oppressed by
seizures of fear, and, says the exile, che
has been known to remain over forty
eight hours without food or sleep when
suffering from one of these fits. Such
long watches, together with the tre-
mendous mental and physical strain en-
du2ed, bring on nervous attacks of great
violence, which render the monarch per-
fectly ferocious, so that while the parox-
ysm lasts no one dare approach him"
It will be seen, therefore, that each
demand we make upon him is fraught
with peril to some Turks If not to Tur-
key. While the world which is deep in
the same experience is laughing at
every fresh ultimatum, it is a consola-
tion to think that, indirectly at least,
the American name is producing sud-
den mortality in the precincts Of the
palace and causing general perturba-
tion.
Turning now from affairs OF state, it
appears that the sultan rises at half-past
4 or and that he is very busy man,
who supplements the reading of the re-
ports from his spies with the diversified
employments OF the chemist, the car
penter and the astrologist. lie can play
little ON the piano and is great lover
OF blood and-thunder stories. At the
table he is abstemious and most sus-
picious. Every dish comes in sealed
with an official seal, which is broken in
his presence.
Though he rises so early he goes to
bed very late, and has child's terror OF
the dark and silence. Against the for
mer he provides the most brilliant illu-
limitations, and long after bed time he
will have the imperial guard march up
and down in front OF the pavilion "that
the sound of their measured tramp may
calm his nerves." Upon the whole it is
pretty poor man who is not better off
than this miserable potentate.

d.. Marr is in from his ranch near
Aultman. He says the substance now
known as crude petroleum has made the
water OF wells in his neighborhood bad
for years and has accumulated in springs
and ponds; but not until last winter did
the people in that section have much
idea as to the true nature of this oily
substance. Last winter q capitalist
from the oil regions of Pennsylvania
came to that section for his health.
While walking over the country with
Rev. Bristow, he picked up piece of
rock with the exclamation: "Why, this
is Pennsylvania Oil rock p This was the
commencement of the oil talk, and after
some of the greasy substance was taken
from spring and analized it was pro-
nounced to be parafne. Now the whole
country is staked off in oil claims. One
California outfit alone has located 1900
acres. One ranchman has offered his

OUR RELATIONS WITH CUBA.

A well posted Washington correspon-
dent writes:
'tThe industrial interests of Cuba are
beginning to perceive that their only sal
walton is in the annexation of their is
land to the United States. They have
learned OF the efforts of the Secretary OF
Agriculture to improve the condition OF
the planters OF Porto Rico, Hawaii and
the Philippines, and realize that compe-
tition from those islands is likely to
prove disastrous to Cuba in the markets
of the United States unless her planters
can be admitted on the same terms.
"The United States is the only mar
ket for Cuban products, and it is abso-
lutely necessary to the prosperity OF
Cubans. The grave danger to which
they are exposed by the development of
the agricultural industries OF the other
islands Is now serious topic of discus
sion in the Cuban press. One of the
leading newspapers of Havana call at
tention to the impending danger.

Suicide Prevalent in New York.
Number Of Cases Recently.

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE number of
suicides in New York for the last three
months has been remarkable, no less
than 1873 persons having taken their own
lives within that time, an average of two
each day. Among them are several per-
sons whose names have been prominent
in both the social and commercial world.
In addition, there have been many un-
successful attempts at suicide.
CarboIic acid was easily the preferred
method OF these self-murderers, notquite
one-third of them using this drug. The
fact that carbolic acid causes great pain
when swallowed and is not the surest
means of suicide seems to make no diff
ference. OF other rare methods of self
