the bands of music Of the troops compos-
ing the garrison marched through the prin-
cipal streets, playing lively marches, to
the royal palace. where they performed
beneath the windows of the Kings apart
ments. The royal procession was formed
on the Plaza de Armas, in front Of the
palace, shortly before ? p. m, and pro-
ceeded to the Chamber of Deputies, where,
in the presence of the senator's and deputies,
the King took the oath to uphold the Con-
stitution. The procession was a spectacle
of medieval significance. Grooms on
horseback opened the march. They were
followed by four buglers and cymbal play
ers from the royal stables. whose horses
were led by grooms on foot: four mace
bearers on four horses with Oriental trap
pings. led by hand: two of the Kings rid

by the Railway Company.

PHILADELPHIA, May lit was off,
cially announced to-day that the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company had notified the
Western Union Telegraph Company that
the existing agreement under which the
Western Union lines are operated over the
Pennsylvania system east and west of
Pittsburg would terminate six months after
June l, 1902. This agreement, which was in
operation twenty years. was ended by limi-
tation last September. 1t contained a pro-
viso by which the contract should remain
operative after the time limit had expired
until the contract was either renewed or
six months notice was given by either COM
pany of a desire to dissolve the compact.
An official of the Pennsylvania Railroad
said to-day that the decision to sever the
contract was the result of the c~ompany's
failure to secure certain concessions from
the Western Union Company. The directors
had. in consequence, it was stated, decided
TO place themselves in the position of using
the railroad company's lines entirely or Of
entering into a contract with some other
telegraph company. This would not prevent
Western Union Company should the direc-
tors decide such action advisable.
NEW YORK, May 1.-THE Evening Post
says to-day: THE Postal Telegraph Com
pdny Will take up the eSIeTn Union con-
tract upon terms satisfactory to both par
ties.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
has its own telegraph system and Its own
poles over most of the lines for the rail-
road operation, entirely separate from the
telegraph company'S system. The occu-
pancy of railroad stations for telegraph
purposes and of one side of the railroad
right of way by the Western Union is for
the commercial purposes of the telegraph
company and for the ccommodation of
the patrons of the Pennsylvania Railroad.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company gives
free transportation to Western Union Of
ficers. employees and material, and cooper
ates in the exchange of facilities in case of
small stations an agent TO do both the
railroad and Western Union business is
employed and the expense apportioned be-
tween the railroad and telegraph companies.
1T was said to-day that the compensation
paid by the Western Union is, for the most
for the whole United States to the Penn
sylvania Railroad and it's officials for bust
ness and social purposes. The contract
with the Postal company, it is understood,
will be similar, and the Postal will supply
Similar facilities. Mr.. Mackay, of this
company, is now on his way home from the
Pacific coast"
According to the Evening Post this action
on the part of the Pennsylvania has been
threatened for some time, in view of the
extension of the Gould railroad system into
the Pennsylvania's territory, particularly
the purchase of the Western Maryland,
to provide a Seaboard outlet for the Wa
bash. The officials of both the Western
Union and the Postal telegraph companies
declined absolutely to discuss the reported
change of Geographic alliance on the part
of the Pennsylvania Railroad.

Rates on Hard CoaI.

CHICAGO, May 17-At a joint conference
of hard coal shippers and Western traffic
officials, held here, the request of the for
mer to reduce the rate to 81 per ton was re-
fused. The railroad people promised. how
ever, to maintain the present rate of $3.50
per ton. The coal merchants were told that
if they wanted to compete with Arkansas
coal in Missouri river territory the proper
way to do it was to reduce the price of
hard coal from this territory and not the
freight rate, as any rate the railroads
might make would be met by the Arkansas
lines.

FAMILY JEWEL GONE
Son of the House Presented II
to Sweeth cart, Raising
Trouble.

Chicago, Nov. los. A. Vesey, OF
Sterling, H., came to Chicago two days
ago in search of his son, Hector, and
to recover a diamond ring which he
learned Hector lad given to Miss
Olive Foss, S21 Humboldt boulevard.
Miss Foss is said to be sweetheart OF
Hector Vesey's and the ring which he
is said to have given her is one of the
Vesey family jewels which he was TO
have taken back to his father from
Chicago.
Some time ago the elder Vesey
found occasion to pawn between $400
and $500 worth of the family jewels
and last week sent his son to Chicago
with money enough to redeem them.
Hector is said to have failed to re-
turn two or three of the gems and
among them Vesey, ST., says he noted
the loss of an $500 diamond ring
Later. he told Justice Wolff Saturday,
he found that it was in the possession
of Olive Foss, to WHOM he understood
his son had been attentive.
Mr.. Vesey says he visited Miss Foss,
Offering her various sums of money
for the return of the ring, but she
refused to produce it. Failing to get
the ring by gentle means Vesey swore
out replevin writ. Still Miss Foss
was obdurate and she was sued on
the writ The jury disagreed and the
hearing goes over until Monday.

Only an Idle Dream.

The Youngstown Telegram is having
q spasm of Joy over a delusion of its
own creation II says that in the flu
ture, instead of Mahoning county be-
ing the last of the three counties, IT
will be at least second in the next
congressional convention in point OF
number of delegates. The Telegram
reaches this conclusion by the follow
ing course of reasoning:
!, This is assured by the vote which
a Mr.. Kennedy received Tuesday. 1t
was considerably larger than that OF
Columbiana county's and on this
basis, the increase in the number OF
delegates will go to Mahoning county.
Mahoning couhty's vote for Ken
nedy, as show by the kilograms
figures, was 6S31. The vote in Colum-
nsbiana county for Mr.. Kennedy, with
lthe exception of two very small pre-
-eincts. was 6,323. This gives Mahon-
ling decidedly the larger vote of the
two. and when the apportionment OF
delegates takes place, the due of Ma
honing will be received"
The Telegram is wrong The dele
s.gates are always apportioned upon the
snumber of votes given for the head of
the ticket, and not for some candidate
whose name may appear lower on the
HbSllct. If Mahoning county can figure
out more votes for Laylin than Colum-
~biana county gave him, then her
claim for Il larger representation in
the next congressional convention can
be made good, but the Kennedy vote
Shas nothing to do with it.

Roosevelt has cut loose from Wall

common people, once and for ALL is
the news that comes from the capital
today. If this is really true, Teddy's
finish is in sight. The money power
is the Republican party and when
Roosevelt repudiates that power he re-

In this matter he will win the undying

Salem, o., Nov. 10. = While drillin,,
for oil miles suoth of here in the
bed of the headwaters of the Mahon-
ing river, drillers struck one of the,
strongest flows OF water in the state
and were compelled to abandon the
work. Although the flow was struck
more than week ago the we'll is still
flowing strongly and il there is any
change in the supply It is increasing
1t is estimated that about 100000
gallons of water flow from the well ev-'
cry twenty-four hours, enough to sup
ply city of twenty-five Thousand in
habitants. Farmers in the vicinity of
the well are up in arms over the mat
ter because since the how was struck
springs and wells generally have gone
dry. The farmers have already held
one meeting to take action, but it re.
suited in little being done. They were
of tho opinion that IL they could buy

= Sebring Bros, pottery manufactur-
ers, OF Sebring. o., hold leases on about
1.760 acres OF land In the vicinity.
Some time ago they decided TO test the
territory for oil and secured the SER
vices of Nicholson & Chapman OF
Home worth to do the drilling. The
hole was started on the bank of the
Mahoning river on the n. c. Galbreath
farm. When down 1870 feet the drillers
encountered water in vast quantities.
In attempting to drive the casing into
a gravel formation several upper sec
tions Of pipe gave way, allowing wa
ter to escape into the hole. This soon
wore away the mouth of the hole until
at present II is twenty feet in diameter
and many feet deep. A ditch to the
creek from the well carries the water
away. Above the well the MahoninS
river is small creek. Below the
place where the we'll empties its pro-
duct the stream assumes r'iver-lille
proportions
The general opinion is that a vast
underground waterway has been struck
which will eventually drain all the
wells and springs In the neighborhood
Further prospecting for oil will go on
In the territory, but not In that ini-
immediate vicinity.
