San Francisco, Feb. 24.-The
fact that the fight for the Fair mill
lions has been re-opened despite the
recent settlement which was sup
posed to have satisfied all parties
has aroused the keenest interest
here. 1t was supposed that the
Nettle-Craven suits formed the last
basis of attack on old Jim Fairs
wealth, but the Paris tragedy
changed this. New evidence has
been discovered, SO the mother OF
Mrs. Fair claims, that shows con-
clusively that the millionaire vic
tim Of the tragic auto accident died
many minutes before bis wife.
Clever witnesses stand ready to tes-
tify to this fact, the proof of which
would take the entire fortune away
from Mr.. Fairs high society rela-
tives and give it to Mrs. Fairs
humble village mother and family
Maan while the fight is made three
cornered by the arrival of fresh
claimants on the scene. They are
cousins of the dead millionaire and

City of Mexico. Feb. AT
P. M. today the most violent erup-
ton of the Colima volcano which
has occurred in years, took place.
At 2:26 P. NJ. there was severe
earthquake shock at Tuxpan, and
a heavy pail of smoke hangs over
the entire vicinity. Both Ciudad
Guzman and Tuxpan are near the
volcano.

City of Mexico, Feb. 24.-The
news of violent eruption last Sat-
urday of the volcano of Colima is
confirmed. This volcano has been
in eruption frequently during
recent years, The eruption of
Saturday was violent and startling,
and much alarm was felt by those
in the vicinity. e sa,s.k
At first it was. believed that the
top of the mountain had been blown
off. Stones of great size were eject
ed, and flames shot high into the
sky. When the alarm was over
there began to fall showers of ashes
and finely pulverized rock.
This alarmed the Inhabitants of
the district who feared being buried
under the debris. There are many
Americans in the city.

Portland, Feb. 25.-Serious ac-
cusations have been made against
George G. Brownell and charges
may be fled at a later date. This
will be sufficient TO prevent his ap.
pearing as candidate for the Office
Of United States congressman, left
vacant by the death of Thomas 81.
Tongue"
The foregoing sensational state
ment was made yesterday by Wal
ter Lyon, formerly private secreta-
Try of Governor Geer, and his cam
.paign manager during the recent
senatorial struggle. Mr.. Lyon re-
fused to explain in detail the ma
Iture of the threatened charge a.
gainat the president of the senate,
! beyond an intimation tha5 his
Eceurss had been influenced by inn
Sproper considerations.
There can be no question that
sBrownell is not resting upon bed
1of roses at the present time. The
labor organizations of Oregon City
lido not accept of his explanations
| of his attitude toward the eight
hour bills when they came up for
passage in the senate, and the spe-
cial committee appointed by the
Carpenters and JoinersU Union of that
city has adopted resolutions reciting
that, s'in view of his posing as
friend of organized labor in the
past, and his utter failure to make
good his promise (to secure an eight
hour law, We condemn bim as
traitor to the cause of organized Ia
Dor and withdraw from him our
support, and promise to hand him
out something interesting in the
future"
Brownell undoubtedly wants the
congressional nomination in the
first district, and that he does not
openly declare himself candidate
is due to his uncertainty as to the
amount of opposition he will en-
counter. Many of those most deep
ly concerned in the senatorial fight
charge Brownell with bad faith and
ugly rumors have been ahoat.

afternoon was devoted to renewing
acquaintances and friendship of long

though Mr.. Hermann refused to

stances and insane. He will be
cared for by friends in this city.
Ludger was imprisoned in a dun
geon of the st. Pierre prison when
the volcano commenced to vomit
death and destruction in every di-
rection.
AS the terror stricken people OF
the city were overwhelmed with the
mass of falling lava and ashes, Lud-

screams Of the victims and felt
something Of the terrible heat.
Deep down in his stone retreat
the prisoner escaped the fate of the
others and he was found there by
the first searching party that dely-
ed in the ruins for the dead.
Before losing his mind Ludger
was able to give vivid description
of the sounds accompanying the e.
ruption, although he could see
nothing.

Dale Ii, VGD. Af.-UONcIuOIO Oudu
berlain today signed Kay's bill re-
pealing section 259 of the code,
which provides that public officers
shall not be subject to garnishment
proceedings for moneys in their
hands due to other persons. The
purpose of the repeal is to permit
Judgment creditors to garnish men,
ey in the hands of state and eoun-
ty treasurers belonging to judgment
debtors. Early in the session Kay
introduced bill providing that the
wages of public officials and en-
ployes shall not be exempt from
garnishment. The bill passed both
houses, but was vetoed by the gov
ernor for the reason that it applied
to money due for services, but net
to money due for material furnish
ed, or for other purposes. The bill
was then introduced and passed
both houses.
After the bill goes into effect
some Of the judgment creditors will
have a chance to try whether they
cas- tie up money in the county or
state treasury. For many years
there has been a demand in Salem
for such a law as a means of forc-
ing state employees to pay their
debts. Now there will be interest
in observing hew the law works
out in practice.

Bryan on Roosevelt's Southern Policy.

Presi dent Roosevelt has taken
advantage of an extreme state

LOTS OF WORK.

There will be no lack of material
for the consideration Of thet thirty
fourth general assembly of the
state of Arkansas, which con-
vened Monday atroon. a review
of the situation indicates that
there are many important meas
ures upon which bills will be in
troduced, and these alone would
be sufficient to occupy the body
for even a 12O day session,
without devoting any time to the
avalanche of local and private
measures upon which so much
time is regularly wasted. Below
is a list of the issues, Of first
Importance, all Of which will come
before the legislature, in addition
to many others that will develop
as the session progresses:
Senator Collins dispensary bill.
Senator D. l.. Kings antitrust
bill, which was before the last
legislature. The completion of
the state capitol building.
State penitentiary affairs,
including the confirmation of the
purchase of the state farm, and
the election Of the superintendent
by the people.
An annex for the state insane
asylum, or separate instlt1 ton
Reform school for young Grim
inals,
State normal school to be
located in Little Rock.
An additional appropriation for
the representation of the state at
the ST. Louis Worlds Fair,
probably 100000.
New buildings at the deaf mute
institute and the state university.
Additional powers for the rail-
road commission, also its aboli-
ton.
Placing the members upon a
salary instead Of per diem, as
provided by the constitutional
amendment endorsed by the last
state election.

Svicide Statistics.

Nineteen hundred and two,
besides being a year of disasters
and earthquakes, was also a
great year for suicides, The
number of those who have
shuffled off this mortal coil foot
up no less than a thousand in
excess of 1901, when the total
suicides throughout the country
numbered 7,245
The Chicago Tribune has been
keeping a record of them, and
finds that two-thirds of the
victims Of self slaughter killed
themselves with pistol or poison,
poison being the agency used in
the majority Of cases. Carbolic
acid seems to be nearly always
employed. This is due to the
fact that it is so easily procured.
AS to the cause of suicide, des-
pondency appears to be the most
prevalent. Out of the entire
5000 only 81 are due to business
losses. Men, generally, endure
misfortunes of this kind with
fortitude. The large increase
in suicides growing out of dis
appointed love among youths is
noticeable, and there is an equally
large increase growing out of the
domestic infelicity of those who
are unfortunately married.
The Tribune calls attention to
the remarkable increase in the
humber of female victims as the
most startling feature in
statistics Tor the year. Inc rccoru
has been, hitherto, that suicides
have taken place at the ratio Of
about four men to one woman,
but in this last year three times
as many women have committed
suicide as the year preceding
The figures for the year are:
Males, 5,932; females, 1902. II
would be interesting TO inquire
into the conditions which have
produced this remarkable change
in the proportion of male and
female suicides. The true solution
would probably not be very
easily arrived at

ROOSEvELT'S NEGRO POLICY
SOvndly Criticised by an independent
Washington Newspaper.

President Roosevelt's action
in recognizing the negro in an
official capacity in the S)uth is
causing widespread comment.
The Washington Pest, an in
dependentpaper. with Republican
leanings, mas the following to say
on the subject:
1.-The president is having
great deal OF trouble with his
negro office holders and seekers
in the south. We do not wonder.
He would have still more trouble
at the north if he were to extend
his policy to that section. He
has declared, speaking of the
south, that he will appoint negroes
to office wherever they prevail in
sufficient numbers to warrant it,
and provided they are of good
character and approved com
potency, But why nO5 apply the
same rule to the north? There
are more than $4,000 negro
voters in Pennsylvania, more than
0,O00iin Ohio, more Than 10000
in New Jersey--has it ever
occurred to any president 10
appoint colored collector of the
port for Philadelphia, or a colored
United States district judge in
New Jersey? Why have one rule
for Carolina and another for
New York? Why in fact,
differentiate the negroes from
the whites; why segregate the
negroes any more than the fat
mali or the red headed men or
the cripples? Theoretically
all men are free and equal. AS a
matter of fact, the negroes claim
more than equality for they insist
upon being set apart, and they
dema nd a certain share of
patronage. not because t ey ara
CO mpetent, but because they are
negroes.
Republican presidents have al
ways had trouble on this score.
They will continue to have it so
long as they recognize the
preposterous pretension we have
described"

are acquainted with the governors
views in tho matter predict that
both the recommendations out
lined will be made in his message

will be delivered to the legis lature
