keeper!
There is bloodshed in the Balkans
trifing incident! There is a war cloud in
Manchuria,-but what are the facts about
that bookkeeper?
Thus will Mr.. Mulligan startle the COM
munity tonight, if only some friend OF
the oppressed will provide him with a
hall.
d The proposition was presented to z n g
Journ a this morning in a written COM
munication delivered personally by MIR.
Mulligan. He is tall and blonde ana
young. He has been employed at local
u factory. and he has been fouly wronger,
as he alleges, by the bookkeeper. There

When it is considered that the depart
ment Of music at the university has been
Installed only since the beginning Of the
present scholastic year. it IS a source Of
qualification and occasion for congratu
slation that Emil Oberhoffer, director Of
the department, is already able to give a
public hearing Of so ambitious a choral
work as Haydn's sacred oratorio. The.

and arts offered courses In musical theory

culture last fall all Of which were well
attended, particularly the theoretical
courses. The enthusiasm which prevailed
at the choral classes in the study of
choral art forms has prompted the public
rendition Of I1aydn's masterpiece to-
morrow evening in the chapel. There Is
scarcely an oratorio written that would
be better adapted to the vocal or tenn
perannental requirements Of a student
body than "The Creation, TIaydn's music
is unsurpassed for simple righteousness,
descriptive beauty and spiritual exuber-
ance. The solo parts Of the ora,torio are
famous for their wide range of vocal and
i emotional expression and it is a matter
OF justifiable pride that local musical
ranks can furnish such capable interpre-
tiers as Mrs Maud Timer Jones. soprano;
D. Alvin Davies, tenor, and Alfred r.

Chenevert at the piano will be assisted
BY a small but efficient orchestra in the
accompaniment and Professor Obertof-
fer will conduct the oratorio. While The
4 students have already taken many seats,
plenty Of choice places are offered for
sale to the general public at the Metro
politan Music store and at the door on the
evening Of the concert.

A HOME FOR BOARDS
The State Has Good Use for
the Old Capitol
Building.
Space in the New Capitol Not suf-
fcient for All State
Offices.

The state is not going to dispose OF the
old capitol when the new building Is
ready for occupancy. BY the time the
move is made, there will be need for all
the offices in both buildings to house the
different state departments and boards.
Now that the new building is nearing
com pletion, the various state officers are
beginning to figure on their quarters
They find that while there Is vastly more
room in the new building. there are not
many more offices or suites of rooms IN
the new building than there are IN the
old The rooms are as a rule larger, but
not any too large for their uses, and the
plan of the building gives great deal OF
space to corridors All the different state
departments want quarters In the new
building but the closest kind OF figuring
is not going to accommodate them all IN
proper style. 1t is likely that the next
legislature will be asked for an appro-
priation to remodel the interior OF the
old building so that the second moor can
be used for offices, and that it will be
made the permanent home OF several state
boards and departments.
At present the state board OF control.
the railroad and warehouse commission
and the state board Of health are Obliged
to rent offices down town. All three OF
these require considerable room. The
game and fish commission and the dairy
and food commission, the live stock SAM
tary board and the fire warden are
camped out in legislative rooms, ana
during sessions are driven to dark cor
ners of the capitol. The historical society
Us consigned to subterranean chambers re-
senbling the catacombs.
A Encouragement would probably locate
the historical society on the second floor
of the old building, and put the board OF
control <the railroad and warehouse COM
mission and the board of health. with pos
sibly some other offices, on the main
floor of the building. No definite plan has
been formulated yet.
The expense Of heating and lighting Two
buildings will be considerable, but the
extra cost will be less than the rent now
paid for down town offices. The state
could get a good price for the old site, but
would have to leave additional room for
some of the offices, and the architectural
scheme of the new building does not per-

Pennsylvania Railroad Agrees
to Let Western Union Wire
Supports Remain.

Philadelphia. Dec. 4.-That a degree of
peace has been established between the
Gould wabash and the cassatt-Penn-
sylvania interests is fact Indicated IL
not positi'ely established by the official
announcement made here yesterday con-
cerning an agreement reached as 10 the
status OF the Western Union wires along
the lines OF the Pennsylvania Railroad
west OF Pittsburg.
II was formally stated with author
ity'' that. no more poles owned by sthe
Western Union now standing on Penn
sylvania Railroad property Will be cut
down or interfered with In any way un-
Ill after all legal points now pending in
the several courts shall have been finally
disposed OF.
This agreement applies particularly TO
all poles and wires along the line OF the
Cleveland and Plttsburg Railroad and
TO all those still standing along the
routs OF the Philadelphia. Baltimore and
Washington Railroad. the Delaware Rail-
road and certain lines In the state OF
New Jersey.
The action was taken in Pittsburg.
where the Western Union fled in the
United States circuit court an amended
bill of complaint against the Penn
sylvania in relation 10 its notice OF ter
mination OF contract, given June ?, 1902
and expiring June 2, 1903. This bill
complains particularly OF the the con-
tract between the Western Union and
the Pennsylvania Railroad for rights
along the line OF the Cleveland and Pitts
burg Railroad
demurrer to this amended bill was
filed Wednesday by the defense and was
sustained by Judge Burlington. A de-
cree was also entared by Judge Buff
fington disnissing the complaint.
The decree entered Wednesday by
agreement places the entire matter In
such shape that II may now be taken
directly TO the higher court for final de-
cision
This proceeding and amicable agree
ment are steps preliminary to n more

CHANGED LAWS IN CUBA.
At the afternoon session OF the commit
tee the only witness heard was Dr. Pablo
Desvcrnenie. who was secretary OF n
nance under the administration OF Gen.
Brooke as governor general and later at
torney for Maj. Rathbone DR.. Desvetne-
MES testimony related entirely to the In
structions given to the court by Gen.
Wood. He charged that Gen. Wood had
changed laws Of Cuba I'm order TO admit
ex-parte evidence In the postal cases.
The modification OF the principles OF
Cuban criminal proceedings which was
said to have been particularly detrimental
10 the interests OF Mai. Rathbone. Dr.
Desvernenie declared, was made in an or
der issued by Gen. Wood on April 80. 1900
The effect or the order. said the witness
was TO revert To laws In force under the
regime OF colonial Spain 90 years before
According 10 the testimony OF DR.. Des-
verDenle. the orders made by Gen. Wood
were issued to the Judge OF Instructions,
whom Wood could remove at pleasure
The witness declared that the order was
In violation OF penal statutes and the
rights OF parties interested I'm the postal
cases. AS an illustration OF the powers OF
Gen. Wood under the military govern
rent the witness said that Gen. Wood In
one case removed a Judge OF first in
stance In one OF the high courts and also
three OF the associate judges OF one Sec
ton OF the court. As a cause OF removal
IL was said the judges had not complied
with the law as mcdied by Gen. Wood

The association declared the removals
unwarranted and In consolation. or TO
appease its anger. Gen. Wood appointed
the deposed Judges 10 positions on the
board OF trustees OF the Bar associa-
tion.
DIR. Desvernenie declared that under
the law In force At the time Gen. Wood
became governor general ex-parte evil
dence was not admissible In trials, de-
clared that Gen. Wood has made the
amendment which abrogated statute.
and enacted n new law, and said this
opened the door to ex-parte evidence
Another charge made by Dr. Desver-
nenie was that some OF the judges who
tried the postal cases were not named
by Gen. Brooke in the order creating the
courts. but that they owed their appoint
ments TO Gen, Wood: that Rathbones
counsel never understood that ex-parte
evidence was 10 be admitted in the trials,
and that Gen. Woods construction, even
Of his amended law. was in contravention
OF existing statutes. The witness de-
clared that Gen. Woods order to the
Judge OF first instance had the effect
of controlling judicial powers and made
Gen Wood the court OF last appeal unto
himself. The witness Also asserted that
the bond exacted I'm the Rathbone case
