Il believe that for the present this in

men OF the country are likely to realize
the question OF suppressing the village

Immediately raising this question, the
government will strive merely to remove
the more undesirable features of COM
munal ownership. For example, we have
already been endeavoring to check further
subdivision and department of the fields

One expert has proposed to take from

FOR CURE OF CANCER.
Electric Apparatus Also for Healing
 Diseased Lungs.

New York, May 6.-In one of the apart ments of the Flower Hospital there has been installed an expensive electrical ap- paratus which resembles powerful search light of a man of war. It Is known as an actionolite and Is said to be the first complete instrument of the kind permanently set up in an American hos pitaI. Its operation. 1t Is hoped. will make practical and thorough test of the theory now widely accepted by scientists that powerfully concentrated chemical or actionic rays of violet colored lights pos scsses distinctly curative properties in cases of cancer. tuberculosis and other diseases having their supposed origin in meteorological germs or parasites. W. B. kunhardt. one of the trustees of the hos pital. is the donor of the apparatus, and has paid the entire cost of It's installa- ton.
 To test the newly installed apparatus. a private demonstration was made in the hospital. The first subject selected for 8 test was a boy suffering from what ap- peared to be hopeless case of tubercu- losis of the hip. During the exposure to the chemical rays of light, the subject reclined upon sort of divan not unlike an operating table and the diseased tis- sues were exposed to the rays directly focused on them and concentrated by means of powerful lens It is, of course, too earlyfto predict results in the case.
 In Vienna. Paris. Copenhagen and other cities of Europe. treatment by means of actionic rays has been systematically carried on for some months with results, its advocates believe which are highly encourag ging.

JUDGE BUCKLEY NAMED
HE IS REAPPoINTED PoSTMAs-
 TER AT MONTGOMERY.
His Splendid Record as Public Official Caused His Selection to be As- sured-Is Very Ill At
 Infirmary.

Washington. May 6.--tspecial. i--Rresi. dent Roosevelt today unexpectedly sent to the Senate for confirmation the re- appointment of Postmaster C. w. Buckley at Montgomery. ,.. s4ss
 The postmaster's term d5es not expire until May 18th and no one thought oi the appointment coming from the White House for several days yet.
 There were two other candidates for the place. Forbes Liddel. a merchant of Montgomery, and Thomas C. Bingham, a capitalist who had application for the office on file, but neither 1t is said made any very determined effort to secure the appointment.
 Postmaster Buckley had the endorse ment of the Republican National Com mitteemen who have stood as referees in the Federal patronage of Alabama be- sides the endorsements of other influential persons in and out of Montgomery He practically had the place nailed when he filed his application for re-appointment and it was understood for some time that he would get the office again.
 His record Is one of the best in the South. Milt Saul.
 Telegrams received yesterday at the Federal building amounting the reap pointment of Judge c. w. Buckley to be postmaster al Montgomery occasioned no surprise. Judge Buckley has an abso- luteIy clear record as d public official and his strong endorsements caused 1t to he a foregone conclusion that he would be named by President Roosevelt.
 Postmaster Buckley is very i'll al an infirmary in Montgomery. but his rela- tives have hopes that he will soon regain his health.

PATRICK SCORES POINT.
Surrogate Prevented from Admitting
 1898 Will to Probate.

New York. May 5.-Lswyer John c. Tomlinson. on behalf of A. T.. Patrick. made an application to Justice Bischoff in the Supreme Court today for an alter native writ of prohibition directed against Surrogate Fitzgerald to prevent him from carrying out his alleged intention to ad- init the 1896 win of William N. Rice to probate unless Short and Meyers. the two subscribing witnesses to the l90J will. were produced in court and gave testi- mony by May g.
 Justice Bschoff granted an alternative writ which will act as stay of proceed ings by the Surrogate until motion can be made and decided before Justice o'Gor- man as to whether the writ should be made absolute.
 Short and Meyers are the two subscrib- ing witnesses to the will produced by Patrick. When the surrogate took up the matter of the probate of the Rice wills they refused to testify on the ground that their testimony might prejudice the authorities against them in the criminal proceedings pending against them.

[. X N.-SOUTHERN SCRAP
LATTER TRYING TO REACH
 MINGo COAL FIELDS.
Negro Spy Sent Into the Louisville & Nashville Camp Shot Down by an overseer-Men Rushed
 to the Scene.

Knoxville. Tenn, May 6.-It develops today that the real situati tion at Jellico as to the Louisville and Nashville and the Southern Railway operations Is not that the Southern is endeavoring to parallel the Knoxville, LaFollette and Jellico or to prevent the construction of that road. but that it is endeavoring to get into the Mingo coal fields by building up Yellow Creek valley from Jelico. The Knoxville. LaFollette and Jellico will have to bGxcrossed at one or more places if this is done. It is understood that the Louisville and Nashville is also equally anxious to get up the Yellow Creek val ley or to keep the Southern out of the Mingo field if possible. More, men are being sent to the Jellico section pre- sumably to be put to work on the con struction and more engineers, represent ing both systems are being hurried to the fields, The situation is summed up as follows:
 The Louisville and Nashville owns the tunnel at Cumberland Gap through which the Southern Railway reaches Middles- boro from Knoxville. The Louisville and Nashville owns the Middlesboro belt line to the Mingo district at Cumberland Gap and can keep the Southern from connect
  Cumberland Gap and Louisville
 Unable to enter at this point the South ern fig forced to run out from Jellico, up Yellow Creek valley to Mingo. but here is where the fight comes in. In order to do this the Southern will have to cross the Knoxville, LaFollette and Jellico somewhere about 'The Narrows." three miles south of Jellico or at Big Creek gap near there. The new road is not only working a large force of men at these vital points, but is making surveys up Yellow Creek valley toward Mingo. to keep out the Southern. Men and implc- ments continue to be rushed to JelliCo. Middlesboro and LaFollette from Knox vile. Rival forces of workmen are at work near Clear Fork. being now about a mile apart. negro spy sent into the Louisville and Nashville camp was shot by au overseer named Hickey. who claims that the man was sent to influence negroes to leave the camp and go to the Southern's. Chief Engineer Wells of the Southern is in Knoxville tonight and will here. A telegraph wire has been run into his private car and he will keep thoroughly posted on the situation In the coal fields.

 Massachusetts, first defeat was when it was discovered that her cherished se~ ries of amendments were illegal in that they disfranchised members already in. They were. therefore, stricken from tho lists. The convention then turned its at- tention to the compromise amcndmcnt,. considerauon section of Article l. Sew eral efforts to change 1t was accepted as proposed by the compromise committce. Then came consideration of Section Of Article ?, the second feature in the color question.
 Miss Addams of Hui House, CnicnRo who believes in the admission of colore6 clubs. wished this section amended sce that two instead of one vote on the mem. bership committee of five would be nec- essary to keep an unwelcome club out. The amendment was lost by a large vote
 The last question considered related to the reduction of the per capita tux from 10 to , cents. which induced Mrs. Lydia Williams of Minnesota to speak scornfuIly of the federation doing business on the nickel basis
 Mrs. Lowe also made pertinent remarks against reduction.

Believed That Stock of Road is Be.

New Orleans. May s-z-4k special to The Times Democrat from New York says:
 Close observers of the trading in south erh Railway think they can detect evil denoe of steady absorption of the stock. Assuming such absorption to be going on, there are those who think it is not altogether an outgrowth of the Louisville and Nashville situation. but in large measure is result of the renewal of the Cincinnati Southern lease to the Cincin- natl. New Orleans and Texas and Pa cif1c. assuring inc Southern Railway an entrance to Cincinnati and possibilities for extension into the territory between that city and the lakes.
 In this connection it is said that South ern RaHwav interests may be found in control of the Cincinnati Hamilton and Dayton in the near future. Southern Railway and Cincinnati. Hamilton and Dayton jointly control the Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas and Pacific.

MtsT BE MORE COURTEOUS.
Customs Officials Must Treat Travel
 CTS with Consideration.

New York, May 6.--Coliector Of Customs stranahan. in an address to the entire force of customs inspectors. which as- sembled at the barge office to meet him, has told the inspectors that trans-Atian- tic voyagers must in future be treated with more consideration.
 Difficulties in passing baggage which have exasperated passengers on incoming vessels are. he said, to be done away with, and new regulations soon will be promui- gated which will minimize all of the evils, which have aroused complaint.
 The collector reminded the men who meet steamships and search baggage on piers that they are servants of the public and urged them to perform their duties in such manner ss to merit public ap- proval.
 The customs inspectors, about s5o In number. had rendered reception to Coll lector Stranahan, General James S. Clark son. Surveyor of the Port; George W.. Whitehead. Appraiser and Robert s, Sharkey. naval officer. It was the first time in thirty years that there had been such an affair.
