SENATOR cLARk's MISTAKE.
Montana Man Takes Proctor for the
New Yorker.

Senator Clark of Montana, the rich.
est man in congress, and one of the
richest in the world, got on an ele.
vator in the senate wing of the capitol
the other day. Senator Proctor was
already in the car coming UP from
the basement. Senator Clark bowed
to him with studied dignity and said:
"How are you today, Senator Platt?"
Senator Proctor looked at the SEN
ator from Montana rather sharply and
replied in his most cordial tone:
II am quite we'll, l thank you.~ I
hope you are the same"
Then Senator Clark appeared to
realize that he had Numbered. He
looked Senator Proctor over a mo-
ment and explained that he was in the
habit of mixing up names which be-
gan with the same initial letter.
"You see, Senator Proctor" said
Senator Clark, getting that name right
this time, "your name and Platt's
name begin with the letter P. That is
how I came to call you Plat 1 hope
you will excuse me-"
Senator Proctor smiled pleasantly
and assured his contemporary from
Montana that his mistake was a nat
ural one.
II understand" said Proctor, chow
easy it is to mix up the names Proctor
and Platt."
There may have been just a trace
of sarcasm in the senator's tone, but
Senator Clark did not notice it. They
left the elevator together on the gal
lery floor and separated to go in diff
ferent directions. Just as they parted
Senator Clark asked in his most cor
dial and persuasive manner: How are
things up in Maine, senator?"
Senator Proctor did not reply to
this question. He looked rather hard
at Clark, who went on apparently I'M
conscious of his blunder. The eleva-
tors man, who had heard it all, turned
the clerk Of a committee and said
in an undertone: "Clark's put his
foot in it again"

Programme for the Remainder of Stay
In Chicago-Time Fully Oc-
cupied. f

Chicago, Jan. 25.-Rear Admiral w
S. Schley today thrice declared that
he had no intention of entering poll.
tics. His remarks were calculated to
set at rest for all time the political
ambition which some of his admirers
have entertained for him. He said
that no office, however high, would
tempt him to jeopardize the love
which the people of this country have
expressed for him.
The day, for the admiral, was a
round of receptions at each of which
he expressed his. gratitude for the
tokens Of esteem and appreciation.
The demonstrations reached their
climax in the banquet given in his
honor by the Hamilton club in the
banquet hall of the Auditorium. AID.
proximately $50 guests were present.
Sunday will be spent quietly, the
Admiral and Mrs. Schley attending
church in the morning.
MOnday they Will visit the Winfield

OF the German societies at Memorial
hall, attend a reception given by the

ed by the officers of the Illinois naval
militia.

kAIsER's new YACHT
Likely to Be Launched Early In
February.
OWNERS PLANS CARRIED OUT.

German Eraperor's Latest Pleasure
Vessel Will BE the Largest Schoon-
er Yacht -lHOat-Pzain and substan-
tial In Its Fittings-Room For q
Court Ball on the Deck.
The emperor of Germany's new
pleasure yacht, which is being built by
the townsend & Downey Shipbuilding
COMPANY from designs by Cary Smith
and Barley, will be launched early in
Post. At least that is the present plan,
and as she is almost plated now no de-
lay is probable. When completed, she
will be the biggest schooner yacht
afioat, her dimensions being 161 feet
over all, with a beam of p feet. To
carry out the emperor's commands her
finish throughout will be plain and
substantial, yet she will be little short
of a floating palace when put into
commission. .
Cary Smith in giving a description Of
the yacht said: "To give some idea of
her size it will be quite possible, with
awnings set and curtains at the side.
to give a court ball on her deck. ALI
her work, such as decklouse, skylights
and rail, will be of selected lockwood
and all capstans, winches, etc. of
bronze. Situated aft is a deckhouse of
steel cased with teak. This deckhouse
serves as the main companion leading
below and in addition will be used in
dirty weather and will allow a view
OF what is taking place on deck. The
stairs from the deckhouse lead to a
vestibule, where are found a chart
case. shelves for thermometer, nautical
instruments and a locker for hanging
oilskins. Aft. opening from the vesti-
bule, is the ladies' cabin. fitted with
two Berths. sofas. a writing desk ard a

"'There is a bathroom on the star

s,oRTHERN SECURITIES CON-
PANY FILES A BRIEF.
COURT LACKS JURISDICTION
Is the Argument Set Up on Behalf of
the Attorneys Of Hills Big
Combine.

Washington, Jan. 27.-In the United
States supreme court today Attorney
General Douglas of Minnesota renew
ed his motion for leave to file a bill OF
complaint on behalf of the state
against the Northern Securities com.
pany in the matter of the merger of
the Northern Pacific railroad with
other roads, saying that he had given
notice to defendants as requested by
the court.
w. D. Guthrie for the Northern Sc
curities company. filed a brief with
the court outlining that company's
position. He contended that the bill
Of complaint %professed to be filed on
behalf of the state of Minnesota does
rot present a controversy of a civil
and judicial nature between a state
and a citizen Of another state justi:
fable in this court, and that no state
can call upon this court to enfore it's
penal or police laws in others states.
Hence this court is without jurisdic-
ton. The bill asks the court, he says,
to restrain by injunction a citizen of
New Jersey from doing the acts which
r entirely lawful according to her
laws and which are sanctioned by her
statutory policy, simply because those
acts violate o. evade or tend to cir
cumvent ire public or penal or police
laws Of Minnesota, the complainant
state. There is, he continued, no sug-
gestion that the acts complained of
are not entirely lawful in the state
OF New Jersey or that it is not within
the corporate powers of the defendant
corporation as an investment company
to acquire and hold the stocks of rail
way companies. The sole ground of
complaint is the alleged violation in
New Jersey Of certain enactments con-
tanned in the statute of Minnesota,
hence he %contended that the injunc-
ton prayed for would be nothing more
or less than an order compelling the
Securities company to obey in New
Jersey the laws of Minnesota.
He called attention to the fact that
no relief is sought against the Great
Northern Railway company of the the
Northern Pacific, that both are cor
porations of Minnesota and both,
therefore, within the jurisdiction of
courts of that state. This was taken,
he said as confession that neither Of
these corporations had sinned against
the laws of the constitution of Mime
sofa.
When Mr.. Mum concluded the ar
gument for the state of Minnesota the
court took the application under ad-
yisement.

AFTER SECURITIES, WHAT?
Hill and Morgan Have an AIterna.
tive Scheme Ready.

live 0@tISHC nSdOys
New York, Jan. eff the decision
of the supreme court is against the
Securities promoters, that concern
will endeavor to form some combina-
lion which will give it a stronger legal
position. It will not be an easy mat
ter to do this, but Hill and Morgan
are so well supplied with
legal talent that probably some
way will be found to accom-
plish the desired result. Hill and
Morgan have a great deal at stake in
the northwest and they will not give
up without a hard struggle, in any
event. 1t is intimated that something
OF this kind has already been arrang-
ed and is now lying on the shelf ready
to be brought out whenever necessary.
In some circles it is thought the
financial institution which is reported
as about to be formed and in which it
is said leading trust companies and in
surance companies will be represent
ed is designed as an alternative
scheme in case the legal attack on the
securities disturbs the present plan.
Should this institution prove to be a
trust company with which stocks are
to be deposited it is reasoned that it
would be un~questionably within the
law. This surmise arises out of a gen
eral belief that whatever may be the
outcome of the legal proceedings, Hill
will be found prepared.
The uncertainty regarding the &C
ton of the supreme court in the Sc
curities ase amounted almost to a
scare on the stock exchange today
It caused heaviness at the opening and
again at the close. Pending the de-
cision the market is almost paralyzed
and is absolutely devoid of buying by
the public.

diseased OF infected Sheep and the
inspector would be authorized to pro-
coed at once to make and enforce
quarantine regulations, provided that
the bucks in question were found to
have been actually diseased.
As to Dipping.
AS to the power of the deputy in
spector to compel the owner of dis
eased sheep to dip them, section 1892
provides that such inspector must per-
sonally supervise the dipping of ev-
cry band of scabby sheep within his
county, and appoint a date for every
dipping, and is also given the right to
determine and superintend the pro-
portion and mixtures of materials. I'm
der section 1898 he is authorized to
hold such sheep in quarantine until
the owner has eradicated such scab or
infectious disease, and by the same
section it IS provided that the expense
of feeding, holding, dipping, marking
and taking car of all sheep quaran-
tined must be paid by the owner.
In our opinion it would be the duty
of the owner to dip the sheep under
the direction and supervision of the
inspector, and upon the failure of the
owner to dip the sheep, it would be
the duty of the inspector to dip them
at the expense of the owner.
