Leo has ruled the Roman Catholic

mourning for the death Of one they

THE GLOVE CONTRACT.

The Littauer glove contract is still
agitating the Var Department and Off
cial washington: On account of the
peculiar relationship existing between
President Roosevelt and Congressman
Littauer, the question is on every mans
tongue, What will Roosevelt do about
this latest scandal that gets close to
him?" AT Harvard College dinner at
the Waldorf-Astoria hotel in New York
on the 23d OF February, 1900, Roosevelt
declared with pride and emotion that
his closest personal friend and political
adviser was Mr.. Lucius n. Littauer,
member OF Congress from New York.
To quote his exact language: 81 want
TO tell you that it is n Congressman
who Is my most intimate personal friend
and who is my closest political adviser" -
"Who is hep" came from all sides.
"Lucius Littauer," said Roosevelt.
The laws of the United Srares forbid
n member OF Congress TO take any Gov
eminent contract, The New York Sun,
a republican newspaper, friendly to Mr.,
Roosevelt, OF course, reveals the fact
that Mr.. Littauer, during the Spanish
American war, manufactured some five
hundred thousand dollars worth of
gloves and other supplies bought by the
United States Government 4 man
named Lyon got the contract from the
Government, and Littauer made the
gloves for Lyon. In letter TO Lyon,
Littauer asks whether he Mittauer)
shall go and see the responsible War
Department official, General Ludding-
ton, "inregard TO other glove contracts"
And LittaueI' 3 brother acted as bonds
mas for Lyon in the procuring of con
tracts.
What will Mr.. Roosevelt do under
the circumstances? Will he instruct the
Attorney General to investigate the mat
ter? He cannot doubt that his endorse
ment of Mr. Littauer would have great
weight with the War Department Mr..
Littauer may not have known, in spite
OF his offer TO see a certain official. that
Lyon really got the contracts on the
strength Of representing Mr.. Roose-
velt's intimate friend.
But what will Mr.. Roosevelt do?
He has not hesitated to give us his
views of official purity. He has said,
Words are good when backed up by
deeds, and only so" Will his words be
backed with deeds in this case? Or is
there a difference between an ordinary
A4olNIOlisll Tic l1uINttIu RIluutlSc
who happens to be the Presidents
CLOSEST political friend and adviser"
The people would perhaps like TO ask
Mr.. Roosevelt this question:
What can be expected of the Post
Office people if the intimate political
friend and most trusted adviser OF the
President makes profit of some ninety
thousand dollars on Government con-
tracts, when the law says that no MEM
Der Of Congress shall profit by such
contract, directly or indirectly?
Mr.. Roosevelt has said that he pro-
poses to have everything about him
"as clean as a hounds TOOTH" Isn't
it about time for him to buy carload
OF tooth brushes?

The most sweeping ruling by an
American court concerning a matter
Of Roman Catholic belief since it was
held in New York years ago that .
priest cannot be compelled to testify
to the secrets of the confessional has
been made by Surrogate George A.
Benton at Rochester, n. Y.
The case was that Of John S. Keen
an. as administrator Of the estate of
Rev. James p. Kiernan. keenan, put
in a claim for $500 willed to Father
Kiernan for masses by Daniel Lane
Mr. Lane died July ,. 1897. and Father
Kiernan May 13. 1900 Judge Benton
said:
1T is not natural TO suppose hat
the testator making a beQuest for such
a purpose would SO distrust his lega-
tee as to insist that the service should
be performed before the money was
paid
The substance of the decision is that
the performance Of the masses by the
priest in such a case is a duty laid
upon the conscience Of the Clergyman
alone and that the legacy vests in the
priest and passes to his legal repre-
sentative. who is in a position to claim
its payment
The case has no exact parallel in the
history Of United States courts.

Outbreaks.

The recurrence of the bubonie

the fact Of its breaking out simultan-

periments. with the object of discov-

block of native houses. containing
several thousand inhabitants the
buildings being certified as free OF
plague. was selected for examination
OF vermin as the first step.
The result was startling A consid-
cradle proportion Of bugs. fleas. cock
reaches and spiders was found to be
Enthusiastically infected with the germs
OF the plague. The bite of these in
sects revealed more disturbing

taken from many supposed healthy
persons. The samples were sent to

germs were discovered in at least FIVE
per cent. Of these samples Thus N
the hot season each OF these was

there was no apparent contact with

be the destruction Of the native town

of Acres of the "cominE Fuel"
In City Limits.

peat is the coming fuel, and there
Ia enough Of It within 80 miles OF
Chicago to supply the city for a hun
dred years. declared J. Campbell Nor
rison in a lecture before the Robert
Fulton Association Of Stationary En-
gineers at Chicago recently.
Peat is coal in embryo" he added.
Under heat and great pressure 1t be-
comes coal. Nature takes thousands
OF years to complete the transforma
ton, and then the coal is buried deep
under ground, is mixed with foreign
substances and has lost much of the
heat-giving power which the original
peat had.
There is no European process
which will produce a briquette i'm
pervious to moisture without driving
off part Of the volatile substances con-
tanned in the peat and lessening the
fuel value But an American inven-
ton has made this possible at small
expense.
I'm the new process the peat is dug
by machinery and delivered to a shred
der, which pulls the fibers apart. 1t
is then dried in a long inclined rotat-
ing cylinder, through which hot gases
are passing The dried peat is pulver-
lied and nodded into briquettes under
heavy pressure, and the briquettes are
forced through heated molds, which
brings the oils in the peat to the sur
face and gives it a smooth finish that
water win not penetrate.
"These briquettes make the best fuel
on earth They burn with clear,
bright flame and no smoke and give
more heat than an equal weight Of
coal They retain their shape until
consumed and leave a small amount
of ash as fine as -four Peat foot
thick over one acre will make 300
tons of briquettes There are hundreds
Of acres of it within the city limits Of
Chicago"
