CONFLICTING CONTRACTS.
prof Ford's School Will Probably
Not Have Rooms at the
n Atheneum.

At a recent meeting Of the Board of
Education the question OF allowing
Prof. j. I'D Ford TO teach his school
for boys IN one OF the Athen&um
buildings, was raised.
1t seems that the city has lease on
the Study Hall at the Athen9um, and
has a contract with Capt. Smith. IN
which is a clause that none OF the
other buildings are TO be rented to
persons or institutions to which the
Board may object.
Prof. Ford, not knowing of this
clause in the city's contract, rented
the gymnasium building from Capt.
Smith for his boys school, and has a
written agreement for year, and
actual possession of the building and
cannot be dispossessed without legal
proceedings.
When the question of allowing his
school within the Athen8um came
before the Board of Education, serious
objections were raised and majority
of the Board voted against it. Not
against Prof. Ford's school particular
ly; but against any private school
being on these grounds.
Capt. Smith insists that the two
schools can be run without conflict,
and is trying to arrange the matter
with the school board. In the mean
time Prof. Fora is looking out for
other rooms. but if he does not find
them will try to hold the building
he has,

THE USUAL TURKISH POLICY
y,,-rxccutinn of Agreements by
Turkey May Lead to Remih"-
erFrom the United states.

Constantinople, Aug. 19.-The non
execution by the Turkish government
of agreements, reached long ago, on
several questions affecting the inter
ests of American citizens, has led to
somewhat strained relations between
the United States legation and the
porte. The United States minister,
John G. A. Leishman, has informed
the latter that he will not discuss
other matters until the terms of the
settlements already agreed upon are
carried on. Diplomatic circles antici-
pate further undue delay, and that
this may possibly lead to a sharp
reminder from the United States.

THE BARTHOIN MYSTERY.
The Chicago Police Think They Are
Nearing a Solution of the
Pulling Case.
THEY WILL SWEAT Ed COUASeLMAs.
He Evidently Has some Guilty
knowledge, Hut Thus Far Has
Refused 40 DivuIge what ne
knows. Notwithstanding the
PIeadIngs of His Wife to Do So.

Chicago, Aug. 19.-Developments IN
the Observation-Disclosures murdee mys-
terry have led the police to believe
they are nearer the solution OF the
problem that has been puzZling them
for over a week than ever before.
Edward Counselman, the intimate
friend of William j. Bartholin, who
was held for possible knowledge OF
the crimes, was taken before Justice
Quinn. Monday, and held for ten days
in bonds of $4,000, charged with pc
ing accessory after the fact in the
murders of Minnie Mitchell and Mrs.
Anne Bartholin. Counselman admit
ted he had met Bartholin, and that
Bartholin said he was in trouble over
Minnie Mitchell. The most damaging
testimony as to Counselman's pos
sible guilty knowledge of the muir
ders of the two women came from
new witness whom the police found
Monday. VIM. allen, fellow
workman of Counselman's. AL
len said that Counselman had
told him repeatedly that he knew
greet deal about the trouble Bar
tholin was in. When Allen suggested
that Counselman tell the police what
he knew, the latter said he would do
no such thing; that BartholIn was ms
friend, and that he was too shrewd
for the police. Allen said that Coun-
selman even expressed the opinion
that Bartholin had esily had time to
reach the seaboard. Allen said that
Counselman expressed the greatest
anxiety over the SAGE, as it developed
in the newspapers, and that frequently
Counselman would walk from the
suburb of Tarvey, where the two men
worked as far as Kensington, to Sc
cure the papers. For three days Coun-
selman did not do any work because
of nervousness.
The police have the testimony of
another witness, who is positive he
saw Counselman and Bartholin to-
gether on August THE day the body
of Minnie Mitchell was found.
1t is the purpose of the police to
put Counselman through the sweat
ing ordeal, and they expect valuable
results. Counselman's wife begged
his repeatedly to tell the police all he
knew, but so far Counselman has
been obdurate. A note from Bar
tholin to Counselman asking for
money, and saying that the writer
was in trouble, is held by the police.
1t was this note which Counselman
had tried to secure from his wife by
choking her that led to his arrest.
The postponed inquest of the body OF
Minnie Mitchell has been resumed. 1t
is probable that a verdict will be re-
turned with recommendations that
the men in custody he held to the
grand jury.

(! WOMEN BETTERS
Are Never Satisfied, and Prove To Be
Remarkably Hard Losers.


[saratoga IN. y, New York Timesl
A marked feature of the betting
here is that it is INDUCED in by prac-
tically all the women who attend the
races. The commissioners write on
the same pages of their notebooks the
wagers Of Vanderbilt and the bets
of a Vanderbilt governess. while others
pass from schoolteacher to lady's maid
and dressmakers to millionaire's wife,
listeningrespect fully and writing down
the order that these fair spectators
give.
The time of the commissioners lives
comes at evening, when they are set
thing up and trying to explain what
bets and odds they played and why the
sums OF money that they turn over
are all that the fair ones are entitled
to. l have seen four men explaining
to rich woman that the $1S given to
her was all that she had won, after
paying her bets and paying back mon
ey she had borrowed to bet with.
"Why," she exclaimed, ~ bet on
every race and I won on two of six,
and on one race alone won $50.
"Yes, - was the reply, ''but you
borrowed $13 and have paid 1t back,
and the agent has taken his 10 per cent
commission, and YOU are ahead $1S."
''Well,' she replied, ''if all you
gentlemen say it is right, of course it
is, but know 1 won over $780,
And that was woman who would
pay $50 for hat or $500 for a gown
and think far less Of parting with
81, 900 than she would of winning $50

THE TUMAN MURDER CASE.
Hope That Jesse Tuman May he,
gain His Senses Long Enough
to Tell the story.

Muscatine, Ia, Aug. 19.-There ale
no new developments in the Tuman
murder case. Jesse Tuman is still in
the hospital here unconscious. His
physicians hope he may regain his
senses long enough to tell the story
of the crime. The inquest brought
out no additional facts. The police
believe the crime was committed by
a man who lived with the couple and
who disappeared Thursday. Officers
are making a close search for him
here as well as in the surrounding
country. There is great excitement
over the crime. Mrs. Tuman was
buried Monday afternoon.

Cancer Cured by Electricity.
AUSTRALIAN Medical Journal.)

AUSTRALIAN MEDICAL Journal.D
The method Of electrocuting cancer
is to push two needle points into the
growth and cause current to pass
between them. Having placed the
needles in position, a current of about
40 to 80 volts Is switched on. The cur
rent is kept on from one to two seconds
and then interrupted. 1t is them re-
versed and again sent through in the
opposite direction for one or two
seconds. The effect of the current is
made evident at once to the operator
by striking change in the appearance
Of the soft tissues between the needles.
When the current has been made
sufficiently large these instantly change
color. All circulation IN them ceases,
and they become Of a yellowish color;
they are, In fact, dead. When this
change is clearly apparent the needles
are withdrawn and reinserted In new
places and the current again turne1
on. This process Is continued until
the growth is completely encircled.
The nerves being also completely devil
talixed, no pain follows the operation.

EXPRESS TRIMS
OF The Future Will Be Steel To bes
. Running Seventy-Five Miles
Per Hour.

washington Cor. Brooklyn Eagle)
The editor of technical publication
in Berlin has made some interesting
suggestions for improving locomotives
and railroad cars 80 as to give greatly
increased speed. Consul General Ma
son. at Berlin, has sent to the State
Department an extract of the published
views of the editor, Arthur Kirchhoff,
which will doubtless have a definite
interest for American engineers.
The suggestions are based on test
of new locomotives which is about to
occur over the military railway line
between Berlin and Zossen, when an
effort will be made to form an express
train capable of carrying 100 passen..
gers and their baggage with personal
comfort at speed of 70 miles an hour.
The test is to take place next year.
1t has already been determined by ex-
periments on the military railroad that
a great waste of power is entailed by
the friction and resistance OF air to
railway trains. This trouble is to be
minimized, Mr.. Kirchhoff says, by en-
yeloping the engine and train, from
pilot to rear platform, in shell OF
sheet steel, Joined so as to secure fex-
lbility in passing curves, and so con-
structed as to include the locomotive
and cars in continuous tube. uniform
throughout and presenting no project
ing irregularity which shall catch the
resisting air. The front of the engine
will be pointed Or wedge shaped, the
sheath will lnclose as far as possible
the running gear OF the cars, and even
the wheels of both engine and cars
will be closed disks of metal instead
of, as now, spoked wheels with open
ing to catch the air. The new loco
motive will rest on 10 wheels so as to
distribute the weight and avoid heavy
pressure on the rails at certain points:
The engine will be Of the compound
type, with three cylinders, two of
which will be connected outside as in
an ordinary locomotive, while the
third, or high pressure cylinder will
be hung at the center and connected
inside, working upon mid axle crank,
get at 80 degrees from the crank pin
of the two outside cylinders, which
are set opposite each other.
