GOVERNMENT IS WINNER.
The Jesse ID. Carr Company Can No
Longer Hold Property.


Longer Hold Property.
San Francisco, Oct. 7.-After strug-
gle of quarter of century, Jesse d..
Carr will have to relinquish the possess
sion of "a 1886 acres of public lands in
Northern California and Southern Ore
gon. The United States circuit court
of appeals has affirmed the judgment of
the circuit court of Oregon in favor of
the government. Back in the seventies
Carr had purchased long strips of 40
acre tracts, extending for forty or fifty
miles in one direction. Then he would
buy strips of forty or eighty acre claims,
inclosing an immnese square of grazing
land, to the center of which he had no
title whatever. Around these strips
Carr put up his fence and kept it there
until it was pulled down by the United
States marshal of Oregon. For many
years there have been fights near Carr s
fence, between his followers and out
siders, and blood has often been spilled.
Settlers were driven off if they dared
come near the tract that Carr claimed.
Legal actions were first begun against
him in the courts of this state. but
availed little, for Carr continued in
possession of the land. During the
second administration of Cleveland a
special inspector made an investigation
and reported that wide areas of public
lands were inclosed. Carr went to
Washington in 1888, and all proceed
ings against him were dropped. Later
Judge Belinger, of Oregon, ordered the
fence torn down. The decision of
Judge Bellinger was appealed to the
circuit court of Oregon, and from the
circuit court TO the circuit court OF
appeals, which tribunal handed down
its decision yesterday.

ference as Implied Insult.
Washington, D. c., Oct 6.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt is said to be consider
ably aroused over his failure to ef-
feet a settlement of the strike, and
what he regards as an implied insult
by the operators in demanding that he
use the United States army to protect
the mines. 1t is reported that he has
expressed himself freely to his advis-
ers.
Secretary Root, Attorney General
Knox and Labor Commissioner Wright
were in conference with the president
this morning, and Root gave out the
following statement at noon:
THE president will not call an ex-
ira session of congress, nor consult
Gov. Stone, nor even offer suggestions
to the governor. He will not interfere
in any way. Neither will he ask Nor
gan to confer with him.
THE president considers the state
of Pennsylvania the proper and only
authority to handle the strike, so long
as the miners and operators refuse to
settle their differences among them
selves. The presidents only hope is
that the conference of Friday may
result in some good, and at present he
contemplates no further move. He will
certainly send no troops to the anthra-
cite field, unless Gov. Stone should
so request"

The. drug clerks Of Chicago, who foE
some time have had an organization OF
their own. but have not been able to
accomplish much. have united with the
retail clerks. and have enrolled as To-

cant. For some time the drug clerks
hesitated to take it. They felt that a
drug store was a little bit different
from dry goods store, and that q
man who was employed in the one
must be little bit different from a
man who was employed in the other.
Actual economic forces. however,
proved stronger than artificial social
barriers. by themselves the drug clerks
were doing nothing. United with the
retail clerks they felt they could do
a great deal The two organizations
were natural and inevitable allies.
Now the alliance is consummated and
in It there will be strength. To-day
the retail clerks. and with them the

GIVE AWAY COAL.
Morgan Will Bring $4,000 Tons
From Europe.

From Europe.
New York, Oct. Ga statement is
sued by ]. P. Morgan & Co., and given
out by Mr.. Steele, member of the
firm, says Mr.. Morgan will purchase
$4,000 tons of coal and give it to the
poor of New York. The text of the
statement is a follows:
at is learned that the International
Marine company has arranged to pur-
chase in England $4,000 tons OF the
best domestic fuel coal for immediate
transportation to this country. Ship
ments will begin at once and be hurried
forward as rapidly as possible, even at
the sarifice of the company's regular
business, if it should be found neces-
sary.
"This coal, as we'll as more. if re-
quired, will be used to relieve any suf-
fering that may exist among the poor
or in public institutions.
The motive prompting such munifi-
cence at the hands of Morgan, it is mint
ed, is direct slap at the barons for
failing to settle the strike at the recent
Washington conference. Those who be-
lieve this motive back of the gift assert
that Mr.. Morgan sent for President
Truesdell last week and told him that
the strike must be brought to an end
Immediately. President Truesdell is
rveported to have said that Mr.. Morgan
mixed in the strike two years ago and
made possible the situation as it exists,
and he would have to keep out and al
low the operators to conduct the fight
along the lines already evidenced.
The starving out of the miners is also
limited at. Mr.. Morgan is not only the
head of the shipping combine that will
convey the English coal to this country.
but is also the master spirit of the coal
situation. With shipload of coal a
day, which would not tax the resources
of the combine, he can avert fuel
famine and at the same time starve out
the striking miners.

London. Oct. 6.-The conference of
German doctors, which is now in ses-

discovery OF new cure for scarlet fe-
yer which has repeatedly proved to be
successful. DR.. Moser, the assistant
physician at St. Anne's Hospital for
Children at Vienna, is the discoverer
of the new serum. During the last two
years he has tried it on 400 patients.
The mortality has decreased very mate

double that at this one. The congress
has been informed that the government
will vote considerable sum of money
in order that the serum may be made
in large quantities and distributed to
all the children's hospitals in Vienna.
Apart from this the congress has not
been noteworthy so far as the announce
ment of any great discovery is con.

Why The Raw Slg ar Tx
Should be Repealed.

1t is a direct tax on the working
mans wages. It's an iniquitous
tax if notneeded or revenue, and
because that which it seeks to pro-
tect needs no protection other than
that ESSENTIAL to counteract the
bounty-ied sugars Of Europe, Ha-
waiian and Porto Rican cane sugar
and domestic beet-sugar sold at
no duty price would return a hand
some margin Of profit, ipsoring a
constantly increasing output Of
such sugar.
Raw Sugar Should BE Free: Be-
cause the present tariff is unjust, in
that it encourages and produces in
ordinate profits, all taken from the
pockets of the people, and adding
to the cost of living. 1t encourag-
es class legislation. 1t is a mon
strous wrong, because the $50 900,
900 contributed by the people Of
the country to this privileged class,
together with the $4S, 100000 paid
the oyernment in duty, could be
transferred to the savings banks
to the credit of thousands. or used
to increase the lone comforts of
eighty millions instead of being un.
fairly and unjustly diverted thro
Government protection 10 still fur
ther fatten the already plethoric
purses of few.
Raw Sugar Should Be Free: Be-
cause sugar is an absolute neces-
sty of life and essential to the
health of the people. Because free
sugar would greatly encourage and
increase the jam, preserve and jelly
industries of the country. Under
cheap fruit and cheap sugar the
markets of the world or these in
dustries would be ours. Great
Britain employs 10000 working
people in this branch of trade
alone, and produces merchandise
to the value of $5O,OOO,OoO or 500
100000 yearly. Every farmer,
therefore, is interested in this ques-
tion.
Raw Sugar Should Be Free; Be-
cause the present is a most pro-
pitious time to enact beneficial leg
islation of this kind The Gov
ernment does not need the revenue
and the beet and colonial cane pro
ducers do not need the protection.

been observed three times before, and
probably never so perfect.

ric pressure, halos are often noticed
about the sun. The commonest Of
these halos is one that appears at dis

outer halo at distance Of 46 degrees
Is also occasionally noted. But the
great halo of Hevelius at distance of
80 degrees is a great rarity. and hum
dreds Of years may pass before it is
observed again. AT times when these
halos are visible there Is also a par

MUNICIPAL ART.
An Old World Movement to Beautify
the Great Cities.

the Great Cities
A remarkable art movement, Of
which the Belgian Municipal Art as
sociation was the initiator, has for
some time been active in Belgium.
The association has over 1000 mem
bers, including, besides artists, archi-
tects, sculptors and engravers, many
prominent public men, and has
branches in the great cities. The main
object is to redeem the public thor
oughfares from their ugliness, and
give back to them some of that pie
turesque effect which the mansions
in the Grandes Places of Brussels and
Antwerp and the town halls Of Ypres,
Oudenarde and Bruges show that
they once had. The association is
subsidized by the municipalities of
the leading cities Theimproyements
largely take the direction Of beautiful
and appropriate facades to public and
private buildings. One Of these in
Brussels is the shop Of a fashionable
jeweler, another that of chemist.
These creations are the work of lead
ing artists. The movement has ex-
tended to Germany and Italy, and
there is plenty of scope for it here

PETS OF CHILDREN.

To every properly constituted chile
one of the greatest and most glorious
features Of the holiday season IS the
facility it affords for the acquisition
of pets. The qualities necessary o.

ly various; although, perhaps, they
should always be live things to begin
with, even this qualification is only
an initial one, and the child's affection
for a kitten or starfish frequently
becomes only the more impassioued
as the date Of its decesse grows more
distressingly remote. To most boys
one Of the greatest recommendations
in their pets is extreme voracity. and
