The Pottsvile correspondence OF the
Philadelphia Ledger speaks Of the un-
satisfactory character of a recent dis
tribution 0. the strike relief fund. 1t
says that where it was found that any
member Of strikers family was
working though nothing more than a
girl earning 50 a week in factory
the name Of this family was at once
stricken from the roll. The name of
family was stricken OF i it was found
that it had saved any money. 1t IL
also stated that in the distribution, if
the funds had been paid out Impair
italy, it would have given each mem
Der Of the union less than 80 cents up
on which to support his family for two
weeks But under the plan actually
from 80 to SO each, while the great
majority received nothing. Under
the circumstances the endurance OF
the strikers in holding out must be
considered truly marvellous

.scHANcE TO MAKE GOOD"
President Rooseveit's Significant Comments
on the Republican victory-Imporant
Problems Must Be Met.

Washington, Nov. 1O.-"The people
have given the republican party
chance to make good" said President
Roosevelt to western visitor Sat
urday. Continuing, the president
said he did not delude himself with
the impression that the result of the
election meant that he would be re-
elected two years from now, or that
at that time there would be another
vote of confidence in the republican
party. He said that the result of the
next election depended entirely upon
what was done at Washington be-
tween now and that time, and not
what had been promised before the
recent election. The president Wig
orously stated that he was convinced
there would be a reaction against the
republican party if the country was
disappointed in the legislation and
administration of the next year. He
mentioned the fact that the prices of
OmmOditieS had risen more rapidly
than the price of labor, and it would
be the business of the government
to reduce the first without lowering
the second. The president said that
it did not make so much political
difference what kind of laws were
passed or what was attempted as it
did whether results were secured.

"MINING KING" In TROUBLE.
Letson BaIliett Sentenced to Fine and Inn
prisonment for DefraudIng Small In
vestors In Deserted Mine.


Des Moines, Ia, Nov. S-Judge
Munger, of the United States district
court, refused to grant Letson Bal
lett, known as the mining king"
new trial and sentenced him to pay
a fine of $1,000 and to spend one year
in the county Jail. Balliett was con-
victed this spring of using the United
States mails for fraudulent purposes
In 1900 he purchased what is known
as the ''White Swan mine in Baker,
Ore, which had been deserted by the
original owners, and Immediately be-
gan to exploit the same through the
newspaper advertisers and sold stock
on the monthly payment plan. 1t
was shown on the witness stand at
the time of the trial that over $780,
600 was received by Balliett from
small investors from all over the
United States. 1t was also shown
that not a dollar was expended upon
the mine. although representations
were made to the contrary in his ad-
vertising matter. The case had been
tried twice and has cost the govern
ment fully $4,000.

$ THE "WATER CURE.o
Volunteers from Vermont Administered

he Died from It.

Washington, Nov. 1O.-An investiga
ton made by the war department
into the allegation by the anti-im-
perialistic committee delivered at the
Lake George conference to the eff
feet that Rev. Augustine, a Catholic
priest, was killed by the water cure"
in the Philippines apparently has
confirmed the main fact, that the
man died as the result of the admin
istration of the ''cure," but it also
has been found that the persons who
administered the cure to secure in
surgent funds, of which he was the
custodian, were volunteers from Yer
mont and are now beyond the reach
of military justice, having been mus
cred out of the service.

ITO BE UNIVERSAL
Within Three Years All Section.
Will Have Free Rural Delivery.
Forty thousand Carriers VIII Be Requires
There VIII Be q Deficit for q Time,
But Ultimately VIII BE Self
Sustaining,

Washington, Nov s.-The annua
gross cost of a complete rural free
delivery service throughout the
United States will approximate S24.
100000, according to the annual re
port which First Assistant Postmas
ter General Wynne yesterday re
ceived from August W. Machen, the
general superintendent of the serv.
ice. The remaining 100000 square
miles not~now covered by rural free
delivery service, according to the re
port, will require the employment OF
$4,000 or $4,000 carriers in addition
to those now employed, making the
entire force of carriers when the ex
tension of the service is completed
within the next three years 10000
After this extension is completed the
annual rate of increase in the appro-
priations is expected not to exceed
eight or nine per cent, the rate
maintained in the other branches OF
the postal service. To extend the
service $4,000 routes a year until il
becomes universal, the report says
will require such largely increased
appropriations that the annual post
Office deficits for the ensuing two OF
three years will probably reach S.
100000 or $1O,OOO,OOO, if not more;
but once the service is completed, the
additional revenue derived will soon
reduce the deficits to present fig
ures, if not entirely wipe them out.
During the year 1902 12,4O3 petit
tions for the service were filed, max
ing a total on July 1 last of 22,646,
which excluded by over 1000 the to-
tai number during the preceding four
years. Since July petitions received
have averaged over 600 month.
On July 1 last the city free de-
livery service embraced 933 cities, in
Guiding four in the insular posses
sions, and the total number of uni
formed letter carriers in the city
service was 1875 ,as against 16,3S9
the previous year.

FRENZIED SUPERSTITION.
Alaska Indians Practice Frightful Atroci-
ties on a Man Supposed to Be Pos

Tacoma, Wash, Nov. 1O.-Dis-
patches from Skagway and Juneau
give brief details of horrible eX-
ample of witchcraft and superstition
in the Hoonah Indian village, 40 miles
distant from Juneau. Though quiet
and peaceable, the Hoonah Indians
are very superstitious and nearly
every year one or more members suf-
fer death violently. Several days
ago the Indians took a man who was
believed to be possessed of the devil
and made him the victim of frightful
atrocities. His ears were cut off and
his body frightful1y hacked in an I'M
successful effort to drive out the de-
mon. The victim was buried alive in
the earth and his scalp cut off, inch
by inch. Officers have hurried to the
scene from Juneau on special
steamer.

Is TO BE REDUCED.
South Will Weld Less Power in Re-
publican National Conventions.
President Roosevelt and HIS Advisers De-
termined Thst Republicans Below Ma
son and Dixon's Line Must Make
Better Showing Suffer.

Washington, Nov. 1O.-The southern
representation in the next republican
national convention is to be reduced
to something like a reasonable ratio
to the proportion of votes cast in the
south. President Roosevelt, it may
be stated upon the highest author
ity, has approved this proposition,
which has been urged for several
years by men prominent in the coun
ellis of the republican party. He has
decided, with other party leaders,
that the time has passed when there
should be further temporizing with
a problem that has been aggressiyely
prominent in republican politics for
many years. 1t has been decided that
the republican party in the south, if
it is to have a considerable voice in
the party councils in the future, must
establish its claim to recognition by
reorganization and by results accom-
plished at the polls. This is in keep
ing with the presidents plan, an
nounced some time ago, of reorganiz-
ing the party in the southern states
and making it something more than
a close corporation for the peddling
of federal patronage. The decision,
in which the party leaders now fully
concur. to limit the representation
from the southern states in the next
convention was reached after a study
of the results of Tuesdays election.
No matter what the causes, the fact
remains that the south, which is rep
resented by 125 seats in the house,
has given the republicans but four
members, two in Tennessee, one in
Missouri and one in Kentucky.

POINTED MASON OUT.
Negro Said 1t Was from the Harvard
Graduate He Secured Watches OF
the Murdered Girls.

Boston, Nov. 1O.-George L. o.
Perry, the negro who pawned the
watches taken from the murdered
women, Miss Clara A. Morton and
Miss Agnes McPhee, declared yester-
day that Alan G. Mason is the man
from whom he received these articles.
Perry was taken to the Jail in East
Cambridge, where Mason, under ar
rest on the charge of killing Miss
Morton, is confined pending hearing
in the Cambridge court to-day. In
sone of the Jail corridors Perry posi-
lively identified Mason as the man
who had given him the watches.
The fact that the negro accused
Mason of giving him the watches
did not give the police any false con-
efidence that the mystery of the series
of brutal crimes had been solved.

He Was Disloyal to Spain.

Madrid, Nov. s.-The trial of Sabine
Arana, leader of the autonomist par
ty in the Basque provinces, charged
with having sent a congratulatory
cablegram to President Roosevelt last
spring on the granting of Cuban in
dependence, began at Bilboa Friday.
The public prosecutor took the
ground that Senior Arana's telegram
to the president infringed the integ-
rity and dignity of Spain and he
demanded that a sentence of eight
years imprisonment be imposed on
the prisoner.

ouartermaster Generar. Report.

Washington, Nov. s.-The annual
report of Gen. NJ. I. Ludington, quar-
termaster general, is a review of the
work done by his department during
the year. The most interesting fea-
ture is what he has to say regarding
the transports, in view of the desire
in some quarters to dispose of them.
He says that the ships are fitted up
in the best possible shape for the
transportation of troops and that it
would be a wise policy to retain
many of them.
