SONORA COAL FIELD
Struggle for Possession Between w
 c Greene and c. P. Egan.

The struggle between w. c. Greene and Charles P. Eagan for the possession
 of rich coal land ip Mexico grows more
 interesting s.s the days go by. The fol- lowing from the Bisbee Review gives
 the latest details In the case: Charles P. lIagan, ex-commissary gem
 eral backed by Alvinza Hayward and
 Charles D. Lane. California mining mil
 lionaires. is fighting W. c. Greene. the
 copper king of Arizona, for possession and title to 3,OO0, 900 acres in Mexico. supposed to contain rich coal beds. The land is in Sonora and was part of the
 estate of an American named Johnson,
 who went to Mexico and married a cen tury ago.
 Greene and Eagan discovered that this
 land contained rich coal mines and sought to secure control or the proper ty. Greene bought from Charles John
 son. the present head of the family. the mineral rights to the big grant fo:'
 a nominal sum. while Eagan purchased the same rights directly from the gov ernment.
 Greene secured possession first, but Eagan resorted to the courts and Greene was declared a trespasser. Greene went into the courts. and after
 some litigation the Eagan party was
 forced to quit the disputed land By
 this time both sides had machinery on
 the ground. ready to rush development. while Greene had begun a railroad | from Guaymas through the coal fields
 to his copper mines at La Cananea. Eagan then went to Guaymas and se-
 cured the aid of a local judge and dis | trict officials and Carlos Johnson and
 F. c. Fenner. Greene's mining exrert.
 were dragged into court. Eagan took
 possession with armed Mexicans to aid l him. but Greene sent a gang of Ari-
 zona cowboys and the Eagan men were
 driven off.
 1 Last week 1Sagan interested the Mexi- can government in the fight and troops
 were sent to San Marcial. near the coal mines. The Eagan party were rein
 stated. but Greene applied more diplo-
 macy and the former conmissary gen eral was removed.
 Last Tuesday Fenner and Johnson
 were again arrested and confined li | jail at Guaymas. Both parties are still , full Of fight.

LACK OF EXERCISE.

n INCE the physicians and surgeons who at
tended President Mckinley reported that the
- fatal result of his wound due largely to
conditions brought about by lack of exercise there
has been good deal of study given to the habits of
high officials at Washington and the general concu-
sion that very few of them take anything like the
amount of exercise reeded for the preservation of
health. The average American official is man of
simple but severe dignity The British statesman
even when member of the Ministry does not hest
tate to play golf or cricket ride bicycle or spend
weeks the moors shooting but the American ex-
cept in instances, dares do anything of that
kind He seems to regard anything less than official
work as beneath his dignity, and consequently he
breaks down when he should be full of vgor and
health.
There is, moreover, another feature Of Washington
life that is perhaps worse than the lack of
else 1t is the unheathul condition in which the Offices
are maintained during the winter. One authority says
that as the weather ustihes any fires at ALL
the public buildings are kept intoeraby hot Even
the corridors of the great department buildings are
fairly sitting and the Offices are like ovens Men
who work in such overheated rooms for eight hours
day almost inevitably lose vitality become bilious,
dyspeptic and tired out Living in that kind of amos
phere taking no exercise and working hard the pub
ever any severe and unusual strain is put upon him.
Grover Cleveland, who was one of the hardest
working Presidents ever had, was wise enough to
take holidays frequent intervals and spend them
not in dling round farm watering place but in
fishing or duck shooting. Thus, despite his corpu-
ence he managed to maintain his strength and
health and is still vigorous President Roose-
Welt has always taken plenty of time for exercise and
will doubtless continue to do so. Thus Washington
officials have good models to follow if they choose
and have the energy.
1t is probable the climate OF Washington has much
to do with the habits of the Government officials In
it is too hot for out-of-door exercise and in
winter the damp, cold weather almost forces the Of
hcias to keep their offices overeated If they lived
in San Francisco they would live differently and be
healthier. In climate not only is almost every
day in the suitable for out-ofdoor exercise but
most days are so fine and the air so bracing with
brisk breezes that they fairly tempt men to get out

NEW LIGHT IN RUSSIA.

tn USSIA is advancing in ways than one.
X She is doing something more than construct
l. \ Siberian railroads and Baltic canals In
spite Of the condemnation pronounced against Toll
stoy by church and by state, and in spite of the in
cvtabc conservative reaction produced by the crimes
OF anarchy, the public mind of Russia is becoming
more tolerant and liberal Recent reports from
Europe reveal the fact that Russians Of official posi-
ton feel themselves free to say many things and
to advocate many policies in public which
paratvely few years ago they would hardly have
tured to whisper among their most intimate friends
One of the most notable instances of the change
that has the Russian people is to be found
in the report recently given of the address made by
NJ A. Staknovich marshal of the nobility of the
province of Oral to the missionary congress of the
province. In his address he is said to have argued
frankly for repeal of many of the restrictive laws
in force, and to have declared that orthodoxy
well established among the people that the church
and the Government might well afford to leave every
free hereafter to choose what religion seems best
to him. Furthermore, the story goes he denounced
the policy OF making people orthodox by force, and
declared that the present practice of trying to whip
religion into is as futile as it is barbarc and
cruel
It.is true the speech reused the wrath OF good
many Of the orthodox leaders of the missionary
congress and created so much OF sensation that it
was communicated to St. Petersburg, from which
place the reports of it were sent to Western Europe
and to this country Such results of the address were
of course to be expected. They do not, however,
weaken the significance of speech made to such an
audience by such man and under such circun-
stances Here. at any rate is clear of the ut
terance OF liberal sentiments in the face of an an
tagonistic audience and it undeniably proves that
liberalism in Russia has taken courage and dares to
assert itself.
There is truth in the old saying Zone swallow
does not make spring., and SO not to expect
that one free utterance Of plea for religious liberty
will make Russia free. When one swallow appears,
however, there is very likely to be another ere long
and the example of Staknovich may rouse others to
emulate it. Freedom of religion would be a
boon to Russia in many ways. 1t would go
far toward checking the tendency of the people
toward anarchy and atheism, for those things are
more often the offspring of tyranny than of liberty
1t may be safely said the Russian church gained
nothing by the accommodation of Tolstoy while
it would gain immensely by putting itself on the side
OF liberality and enlightenment.

Hills happiness was such that Immediately after

Tanmany will work out its own ruin This election
is only the beginning OF the end for Tammany Hail.
There is no room in the United States for an organi-

The satisfaction of Hill is hardly more than that
! which comes from the attainment of personal

With that quarrel the general public will feel little

different with Tom L. johnson of Ohio. That en-

Real Glass Houses.

How would you like to live in a glass
house?
Jules Henrivaux, one of the greatest
French chemists, considers glass the
most serviceable. available and sanitary
material for building houses.
He has executed a model building made
of glass held together by angle iron.
There are pipes for hot and cold water,
electric wires, sewerage everything need
ed for the comfort of householder.
Staircases. ceilings. wall decorations,
fire places-all are Sof glass.
The decorations arr remarkable both
for beauty of design and color. They
are made of opaque glass, arranged in
prisms and crystals, with facets like cia-
monds.
Chairs and tables are of vitrified glass.
and the residence and its furniture are
indestructible.
The entire surface of everything, from
top story to basement. can be washed
clean with soap and water and dried IN
ten minutes. There is no dust and nc
cobwebs.
The walls of the house are colored and
entirely impenetrable to light except
through window and door openings.

tible supply of material for making glass
