4 TangIe in Wall Paper.

The petition for the appointment of a re-
ceiver for James W.. Crewes, until recent
ly a wallpaper merchant of this city, and
Henry Granpe, engaged in the wallpaper
business, after being venued from one court
to another. is now on its way out of the
county. The petition was filed in Judge
Leathers's court and yesterday venued to
Judge Carter by Granpe. Then a petition
was filed to venue il out of the county.
A point was raised by o. b. Jameson, who
represents a wallpaper manufacturing
company of Grand Rapids, Mich, which is
bringing the suit, that the judge had a
right to appoint a receiver before sending
the cause outside of the county. Judge Car
ter took the matter under advisement.
1t is set out by the plaintiff that Crewes
had a wallpaper store at 21 Massachusetts
avenue and stock stored in a basement in
another part of the city, which he recently
sold to Granpe and left the city. 1t is said
that he had about $1,000 Indebtedness
against him, and the petition charges that
he fraudulently conveyed the stock of
goods to Granpe to evade his creditors. He
has not been heard from and Granpe is
fighting the suit alone.

In Love with Her PrOperty.

A petition was filed in the probate de-
partment yesterday for the appointment of
a guardian for Michael c.. Staley, a Virgin
ia-avenue druggist, who was recently de-
clared insane. Staley gave money away
with unbounded liberality during his hours
OF insanity and complications are expected
TO come ~ in his finances. His estate is
valuable. and how he came into possession
of much of it is interesting. Several years
ago he married Mrs. Emma Zapp. a widow,
who was sole heir to a valuable estate.
She refused to deed to Staley any of her
property. but later gave him a joint in
terest. Then she desired to make a will
so that her parents and sister would re-
ceive her property, but found she could
not do away with the joint deeds and that
her husband would come into possession
of her property. She died in 1895 and left
all of the jewels 10 her sister, but her
husband got the property. 1t is said that
she requested Staley to marry her di-
vOrced sister i'm order that the property
might not get outside of the family. Staley
complied with the request and married the
sister.

COST OF RESCUING A CHILD.
william A. HaehI Sues Street-Car Com
pany for $4,000.

William A. Haehl yesterday filed suit
against the street-car company for $1,000
damages for injuries he received in
heroically rescuing a small child from being
run over by a street car. He says he was
riding on a Garfield Park car on South
street. The car was one with a door in
front and he was sitting on the end of the
seat looking along the track. About 200 feet
ahead he saw a small child on the track
walking tOwar the car. He says he tried to
call the motorman's attention to the child,
but could not do so. Failing in this and
seeing that the child would be run over he
sprang out of the door, swung himself
around in front of the car on the step as
the car reached the child, and grasping the
clothes of the little one, jerked it from be-
meath the car and out of danger. In do
ing so he lost his balance and was thrown,
the car striking him. breaking his jaw and
false teeth and injuring him otherwise. He
says new teeth cost him $25 and that he in
Cured other expenses for medical treat
ment.

R IN THE CASCADES.


TACOMA, Wash, June 21.-The forest
fires that caused such heavy loss yesterday
about Hot Springs, near the summit Of
the Cascade range, were checked this morn
ing, when the wind changed and began
blowing back over the burned course. There
is no further danger unless another change
of wind occurs. The large hotel and health
resort at Hot Springs were saved by the
hardest kind of work on the part of the
Tacoma fire department, which was sent
out on a special train. The surrounding
forests in the Cascade mountains are still
aflame.
The forests will burn for several days,
but the fires will not spread unless another
wind comes up. The town of Buckley. con-
tanning 1,5O0 people, was not out of danger
until 3 o'clock this morning. Three times
during the night the long railroad trestle
that crosses the White river there caught
fire. Many camps have been burned dur
ing the progress of the fire. AT Fair
Haven the HOman shingle mill caught fire
and burned last night. and at Ferndale.
near hat point. Davis x Sons dry kiln,
with 100000 tons of shingles. was burned.
The wind is increasing and driving the
fires back. The sanatOrium at Hot Springs
is again in danger and the town Of Lester
seems doomed. The damage i'm Pierce and
King counties cannot be less than $500, COO.

One of the ~strangest cases that have come
to the notice of the WOmen's Society for
the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals was
disclosed yesterday when Jacob Anders, of
the southwest corner of Twenty-third and
Pemberton streets, was arraigned before
Magistrate Harrison.
According to Agent Cozens. who made the
arrest. a horse belonging to Anders has
been confined in a rudely built shelter in
the yard of the Twenty-third-street house
for three years. and during that period has
is that the animal is in a most deplorable
condition. It's hOofs are grown 20 a great
length and curl UP at the end. Its hair is
being forced out by a new coat. The horse
is a mere skeleton. This does not come
from lack of eating, as it was plentifully
supplied with food. Nor was its treatment
the result of intended cruelty. Anders at
the hearing yesterday said the horse was
owned by his half brother, John Kaufman.
A warrant is out for the latter, but so far
he has not been arrested. The animal, it is
understood. is a sort of a family relic. For
merly when the two men conducted a gro
Gerry store the horse was used in the wagon.
1t is said they did not wish to sell it and
were too busy to give 1T the exercise re-
quired for the proper assimilation of its
food. Magistrate Harrison fined Anders SO
and costs.

Trouble ON the Union Pacific.

OMAHA, June 21.-The strike situation
on the Union Pacific took a more serious
aspect to-day than it has assumed at any
time since the difficulty began. Five hun
dred and twenty-five shopmen were given
their discharge as a direct result of the
strike Of the boiler makers and were told
by the railroad officials that the wholesale
discharges were caused by the lack of
work resultant from the walkout of
Wednesday. OF this number 225 were en-
ployed in the local shops. 100 at Armstrong
and 200 at the Cheyenne shops.
Tomorrow President Mcneil, of the
Boiler Makers international Union, and
Grand Organizer Mclean, of the Fedora
sion of Labor, will meet with the strikers,
the machnists and their sympathizers to
determine on future action.

SCHEME OF PACKERS.
Will Attempt to Fatten Cattle and
Hogs on the Cassava Root.

CHICAGO, June 21.-PIans that were first
taken into consideration about a year ago
have been developed in the last few months
to the point where some of the great pack
ing establishments in Chicago have begun
experiments on what may prove a revolu-
ton of the cattle industry of the country,
says the Inter Ocean. The project involves
the settlement of several hundred. thousand
acres of what is at present nearly value
less land in northern and northwestern
Florida and southern Alabama, the Guilt
walton on a large scale of the cassava
root and its use in feeding cattle and hogs.
II the plan develops as it is now in the
minds OF the leading packers the Southern
states will become the center of the cattle
raising industry. 1t is stated that arrange
mentS are now being made for the accomo-
dalton of "A considerable number OF cattle
to be shipped from the ~stockyards here to
northern Florida to be fed on cassava
root. The results of the fattening process
will be compared with similar work in the
West, regarding which the conditions and
cost are already definitely known. The
result obtained will determine the future
OF the caSsaVa experiment.

ordinations which took place at the
Cathedral to-day. Cardinal Gibbons ofici-
ating. was that OF J. Harry Dorsey, who
is the second cOlOred man 10 be ordained
a Catholic priest in the United States. Fa-
Their Dorsey was born in this city and re-
ceived his early education in the public
schools. Forced by i'll health to suspend
his studies. he spent two years endeavor-
ing 10 recuperate. Meantime Re had be-
como a communicate at St. Francis Xa-
vier's. was confirmed, and took his first
communion. In 1855 the Rev. j. r. Slattery
became interested in young Dorsey, and
sent him to st. Paul, Mimi. 10 study under
Archbishop ireland. Here he remained one
year. and DIT. Slattery. having opened
Epiphany College, at WalbroOk. for the
purpose of educating young men for the

WASHINGTON, June H-Cardinal Mar
tinelli. formerly apostolic delegate to this
country, says in a letter just received here
from him in Rome that the health of the
Pope is now excellent. The Pope. he says.
to-day looks younger is more active and
actually is brighter than when Cardinal
Martinelli left Rome for Washington six
years ago. Cardinal Martinelli also refers
to having had interviews with the Pope
with whom he conferred for an hour. and
Cardinal Rampolla, the Papal secretary Of
state, and adds that neither of them has
mentioned the question of his successor as
apostolic delegate 10 this country.
Mgr. Sbarretti, who has been selected
to represent the Vatican in the Philippines,
is still in.this city. where he is a guest Of
the apostolic delegation. He is awaiting
further instructions from Rome. On his
arrival here. almost eight weeks ago, en-
route to Manila, he received word from
Cardinal RampOlla to wait here for fur
ther orders, and no instructions have since
been received. Some surprise has been ex-
pressed among Catholic prelates in this
country that Mgr. Sbarretti should have
been held with only instructions TO await
further orders. instead of having been de-
tanned at Rome for consultation during the
conferences that have been going on over
affairs in the Philippines. He was called
TO Rome from Havana last October pre-
paratory TO taking charge at Manila, but
was allowed to remain at his home in Spo-
leta until April before any further action
was taken. When he left for the Philip
pines via Washington ii was known that
Governor Taft was TO come TO Rome to
confer over the friars' lands and other
questions. Mgr. Sbarretti, however, like
the apostolic delegation. has been COM
pletely ignored in the negotiations, and is
still awaiting Instructions as to when to
proceed.
