PITTsBURG CAPITALISTS have incorporated in
New Jersey the East Cape May Company and
it is said they have bought about 1000 acres of
land at Cape May, N. j., and will revolution
ize that resort by building new city that will
require an outlay of S11, 100000. The idea of
the projectors is to make Cape May one of
the finest all-the-year-round resorts in the
world. 1t is said the U. S. Government and
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company will also
take hand in this big enterprise. With such
backing there should be no doubt of its success

KILLED FOR HIS MONEY.
Wealthy New Yorker careIesSIy Displayed
Large Amount of Cash.

New York, Sept. 80. - James B.
Craft, wealthy resident of Glen Cove,
l.. l., was murdered, and his body de-
capitated, in tenderloin resort within
few doors of Broadway. All the evil
dence goes to show that Craft, who had
been making the rounds of the tender
loin, incautiously displayed a large
amount of money and was killed for
the purpose of robbery. The police
also say that Knockout drops were
first administered, and that then the
victim was dragged into the basement
and killed with a cleaver.
The odor OF burning flesh attracted
the attention of the occupants of the
upper part OF the house and led to the
discovery by the detectives of the head
les body of man in the basement.
The charred head was discovered few
minutes later in the furnace, in which
fire had recently been made with the
evident intention of destroying all pos
sibility OF Identification OF the remains.
Later the body was identified by
Walter Craft, of Glen Cove, as that OF
his father. The murdered man was
about 81 years of age and was manu-
facturer OF reffigerating machinery in
Cortlandt street, this city.

IRRIGATION MONEY
EIGHT MILLIONS NOW AVAILABLE FOR
GOVERNMENT PROJECTS.
Start Will be Made in Number of Places
In the Spring = Funds Now on Hand
Will Build at Least Ten Irrigation
Systems COmpIete--NO Contracts VIII
be Let Until Cash Is on Hand.

Washington, Oct 2.-There is today
in the treasury between 81 800, 900 and
$S, 900 900, which, under the act OF the
last session of congress, is to constitute
the reclamation fund, and which il
now available for expenditure on such
irrigation projects as will be selected
by the secretary Of the interior next
spring for construction. About $3,-
600 600 OF this was derived from the net
revenue from the sale and disposition
of public lands in the fiscal year 1901,
and about 81, 500, 900 as the net reve-
nue. for the last fiscal year. The gross
revenues for lhe past year exceed those
of any preceding fiscal year, amount
ing to about s6, 200, 900. The fund is
made up not only from fees and COM
missions, but fines and foifeitures for
abuses of public land laws. The de-
ductiOn of total expenditures for main
tanning the public land service, together
with the allowances for agricultural
colleges, leaves the amount stated.
Department officials are highly graft
tiJd to find over 81 100000 more than
was contemplated with which to begin
work on irrigation systems next year.
This total will build at least ten pro-
jects of medium size and probably
more, depending upon cost. No work
is to be undertaken to cost more than
the amount available in the reclama-
tion fund at the time contracts are let.

ROOT MAY RESIGN.
Secretary Of War Desires to Return to
Practice OF Law.

Washington, Oct. l.-Secretary Root
is to resign, according to a statement
published here. According to the
rumor the resignation is not to take
place until some time next spring,
when Secretary Root hopes to have the
many reforms he has originated as
secretary OF war certain OF being car
ried to successful consummation.
Among these are the general staff bill,
which is not likely to pass at the short
session, and the bill to reorganize the
militia, which may become law.
With the practical settlement of affairs
in the Philippines, and Cuban recip-
rocity adopted by congress, which will
probably result in keeping Cuba raci-
tiei, and the reforms Secretary Root
has inaugurated in the war department
thoroughly established. the great work
which he has selected to do will in a
measure he accomplished. If he resigns
it will only be when there is straight
course ahead for the war department,
as President Roosevelt would not be
very likely to part with him under any
other circumstances. He is one OF the
strongest men in the cabinet, and prob
ably the closest to the president.
Secretary Root entered the cabinet at
a great personal loss. As a lawyer OF
ability, he had an enormous practice in

ployes are anxious for him to resume

TO END THE STRIKE.
President VIII See What May be Done In
the Coal Fields.

Washington, Oct. 2.-The president
yesterday took initiative steps to ascer.
tain what, il anything, could be done
by the federal authority to settle the
coal strike. The result was a general
expression OF opinion by the advisers
of the president, who we're present, to
the effect that the federal laws and con.
stitution do not afford means OF federal
interference to end the strike, but
another conference will be held today,
and the president will do oil he can
properly and legally to bring about a
settlement, At the temporary White
House conference was held with the
three cabinet officers Attorney Gene
raj Knox, Secretary Moody and Post
master General Payne. Governor
Crane, OF Massachusetts, was also
present. These gentlemen met with
President Roosevelt, and after the SUBJ
ject had been considered for some time,
they adjourned to another room and
conferred together for an hour. They
all returned later in the day and held
another conference with the president,
and the strike situation was discussed
further.
President Roosevelt is deeply con-
cerned over the situation. The ap-
proach of winter, with coal famine
imminent, and the distress end suffer-
ing that must ensue unless coal be-
comes available, present situation
which, he thinks, should receive the
attention oil the administration If there
is anything that can be done by the
government. Many appeals have been
made to him, and many suggestions
have been received by him, and it was
with view to ascertain what power
the federal authority could evoke that
caused the conference to be held.
During the conference every phase OF
the situationl was discussed. The
general opinion OF the advisers was that
the situation did not present case in
which there could be federal interfer.
ence' by any warrant of law. There
has been no interference with federal
authority in the mining region, either
by stoppage Of the mails or resistance
of the United States court process. 1t
was pointed out that there was no occa-
sion for the use of federal troops, as
Governor Stone, of Pennsylvania, had
not called on the government for assist
ance, nor had he even exhausted the
resources of the state by calling out the
full strength of the state militia,

CITY is WITHOUT COAL.
People in New York are Now Tearing Up
Sidewalks for Fuel.


New York, Oct. 2. - Not a ton of
anthracite coal can be had here at any
price, says Rochester, N. Y, dispatch
to the Times. Sidewalk inspectors
report that in the outly ing districts
residents are tearing up the sidewalks
and using them for fuel. Altogether
several miles of plank walks have been
pried up with crowbars and carried off.
In some sections, canal bridges have
been stripped of planking. Piles of
new lumber left on the streets for re-
pairs also have disappeared.
Hospitals of New York city are
threatened with being seriously affect
ed by the scarcity OF coal. The ].
Hood Wright hospital has only enough
to last this week, while st. Luke's was
so fortunate as to obtain a cargo of 240
tons about a week ago-enough to last
tao months. st. Mary's hospital for
has practically no supply of
steam coal, and is using furnace coal,
of whi h it has about 25 tons. This
cOndltlon prevails at many other IN
stitu IONS.
1t was said at the Office of the chari-
ties department that no real distress
has been experienced in any of the
city's charitable institutions.
The price of anthracite has reached
$2l, but s)me retailers are peddling
out their small supply at SIS or SIG
to old customers. Importation of
Welsh anthracite and Fren h bitumin-
Gus can in no way relieve the situation,
for the few cargoes that have been
landed are of little account. There are
only about 5000 tons of this coal now
on the way, but orders have been placed
this week for over %, 900 tons. At
least month is required, however, to
fill the orders. The cost of importing
Welsh coal under normal conditions is
about 81.

WHERE MAN HAD NOT BEEN.
Geological Survey Party Returns From
WiIds of Alaska.

Wilds of Alaska.
Seattle, Oct. 2.-After traversing a
wilderness where white men have never
before ventured, the United States
geological survey has completed a pre-
liminary examination OF the country
lying between Cook inlet and the
Tanana.
A party of seven, under the leader
ship of Alfred Ii. Brooks. made the
trip from Tynook to the Tanana, and
later ieahed Ramp rt, on the Yukon,
after several months hard work. The
entire country was carefully mapped,
and the reports have been sent on to
Washington by Mr.. Brooks, now in
Seattle.
Several new details were discovered
which will greatly aid future pros
pectors.
The trip was snch hard one that,
out of 20 carefully selected horses, only
IL survived. For hundreds OF miles
the party never saw white man, and,
indeed, were the majority of the time
in totally uninhabited land. They
passed closer to Mount Mckinley than
any other white man. Many new
streams were located and named, and
another party will probably be sent in
next year to continue the work.
