New York Sun Special Service.
London, Dec. 22.-War risks at
Lloyd's yesterday reached the highest
rate recorded since the far eastern
crisis began. The general feeling at
Lloyd's is most pessirnistic. This is the
most disturbing element in the situa-
ton. The war rates at Lloyd's are not
built upon either speculation or sur
mise, but upon carefully collected in
formation.
There has been much activity dur
ing the last few days on the part of
Russian agents in purchasing Cardiff
coal and fuel for Port Arthur and
Vladivostock. The business is being
transacted as privately as possible, but
it is known that half a dozen steamers
have been chartered to load with coal
and fuel between now and February.
It is estimated that the quantity of
coal purchased since last September
aggregates a quarter of a million tons.
Surgical instrument makers, says
the Daily Mail, are doing a large trade

The situation has had effect on the

DIR. SUTHERLAND
IS COMING BACK
He Has Heard Of Judge Simpsons
Ruling in Joe Cohen's
Case.
Confident Of Immunity, He Is Be
lieved to Be En- Route to
Minneapolis.
Information Was Given by Montana
Friends Whom He Visited
After Leaving Here.

Former Alderman Sutherland, grams
jury informant and under indictment
for bribery, has been informed of
Judge Simpsons decision making
Joseph Cohen immune from further
prosecution and is now believed to be
making his way back to Minneapolis
by easy stages where he will soon ap-
pear and snap his fingers at the au-
thorities.
This information comes from
ranchman living at Choteau, Mont,
with whom the indicted Minneapolis
tan visited in his recent tour of the
west.
This friend stated a few days ago
that DR.. Sutherland had probably al
ready left the Isle of Pines on his way
to New oYrk city. From there It Is
known that the doctor intends head
ing directly for Minneapolis.
That Sheriff Dreger is now usnig his
best endeavors to arrest the fugitive
from justice is shown conclusively by
thruout the western part Of the coun-
try at least is supplied with descrip-
| ton Of the much-wanted man. The
| information sent out includes a cut of
| the doctor and minute description.
In conclusion, the description states:
ARREST and hold at all hazards; badly
wanted in Minneapolis
The fugitive is known to have made
| a tour of Montana Immediately after
Eleaving Minneapolis. He was also in
I Spokane and was seen at the Hotel
| Spokane by forrAer resident of Min
neapolis after leaving this city. He

DECISION IS OF

Action of Montana Supreme Court
with Regard to lAmalgamated

If Adverse the Company Will Merely

State Laws.
Special to The Journal.

special to line journal.
New York, Dec. 22.-The forthcom-
ing Montana supreme court decision
on the question whether the Anal
gamated Copper company is an out
law under the constitution and stat
utes of Montana, is said to be of no
great consequence to the sharehold-
ers. If the supreme court holds that
the Amalgamated is a foreign trust,
controlling the operation of mining
companies in Montana, and therefore
an outlaw, it will mean that the Anal
into the state of Montana and be sub
| ject to it's laws.
This reorganization might be eff
| fected by sales Of its property, in
| which it might lose something of
value Of it's lawsuits against Heinze,
! but could lose no real property in the
state. If the decision is in favor of
the company, it will mean that Anal
gamated can stand outside the state
of Montana and dictate the policy of
companies within the state of Mon
tana, and can therefore receive divi-
| dends from Boston and Montana di-
rectly instead of Indirectly, as at pres
ent. So
There is no reason to suppose that
| Amalgamated will declare an extra
| dividend from the Boston and Mon
tana treasury. Even should 1t be
able by this decision to strengthen its
local hold upon that treasury, the
Amalgamated company has not yet
reached that condition of treasury
| surplus at which the management
! aims. The company is earning more
than it is paying, but it is developing
! no new mines, and has never made
any great progress In any direction
since it's organization, except in the
| transfer of some Of it's assets into
| cash and the building Of a new
| Snelter.

AN EXODUS DUE
FROM CHICAGO
New Ordinance Will Give Police
Authority to Arrest Suspicious
Characters.
Glasses Now Beyond Reach Are In
cluded in the Prescribed
List.

Chicago, Dec 22.-Drastic regula-
tons for the arrest Of Migrants, loaf
ers, ex-convicts and confidence men
were adopted by the city council last
night in the measure known as the
vagrancy amendment to the disor-
derby conduct section Of the code
The amendment was passed unani-
mously and will go into effect early
next month.
The vagrancy amendment was pro-
posed by the mayor. 1t retains all
the features Of the disorderly conduct
section, but in addition provides for
arrest under this charge Of steerers
for gam bling houses, all persons
known to be thieves, burglars or ex-
convicts found lettering near railroad
depots, steamboat landings, hotels
! and other public places. 1t also may
apply to handbook" men in cigar
stores and saloons, as they are not
| likely to be able to give a satisfactory
account Of themselves, and seldom
have any visible means Of existence.
The object of the amendment is to
give the police the power to sweep
into the Bridewel1 al suspicious
| characters.

''The third interurban line will be

It will come across the Lake street

across Thirty-frst street to connect
with our present Thirty-first street

on what action the councils of both
cities take. If they should not grant
the right of way, the line will not be
built, but we do not believe there will
be any trouble in this respect.

of the reports that Foreign Secretary
Lansdowne and Foreign Minister Del

There is reason to believe that these
representations, coming at the critical
moment when Japan's reply was be-

Baron de Rosen, exercised powerful
restraining influence.
This is especially true Of Lord Lans-
downe, owing to Great Britain being
the ally of Japan. The terms of the
Japanese answer are not yet known

by Great Britain and France the Off

P. II. Delaney Invents Telegraph Sys-
TEN Which Will Revolutionize
Present Methods.
He Claims to@Re Able to Increase
Usual Telegraph Speed

New York, Dec. 22.-Telegraph
messages can be sent and received at
a rate of from 1000 to 5000 words
a minute. A reporter saw and heard
to-day message transmitted and de-
livered at the former speed. Some
idea of this tremendous speed is got
from the fact that the present rate
Of commercial communication is four
teen and a half words minute. The
inventor of the new process expects
to change the whole system of bust
ness communication. To-day the
transmission of messages can, by the
use of the shortest code, with the
most expert operators, reach only an
average rate of $500 words an hour.
The record is $500. Here is an hours
work done in a minute.
The inventor. P. H. Delaney, who
devised the multiplex system, has been
working on his last device for ten
years in South Orange. Stripped OF
all technicality, the new automatic
telegraph system may be described as
follows:
A typewriter keyboard, properly
manipulated, causes two rows of per-
forations to be made upon a narrow
tape of paper, which unWinds itself
automatically over the type faces and
rewinds after being perforated. This
contains tine message IN MOTSo
cipher, the dots being read when two
holes are at close angle or nearly
in perpendicular alignment. and the
dashes when the angle is greater. This
tape, reeled as it is finished, is put
upon the transmitter, which sends the
same dashes and dots to the receiving
| office.
| A variation of the methods of re-
ceiving adapts the device to several
| requirements. In the ordinary form
| the words are reproduced in written
| Morse or by a series of short and
long dashes upon paper tape chem
| tcally treated to show discolorations,
or ink marks, as traced by the record
ing needle or stylus. BY another
! means the perforations are reproduced
as originally made for the purpose
Of ''relaying'' or forwarding.
The actual mechanism employed In
| all parts Of the sending and receive
ing apparatus is simple, tho necessar-
| lily delicate.
The perforator is an adjunct OF the
keyboard, and is controlled by pow
erful and very rapid electric motor.

Tien-tsin, China, Dec. 22.-The viceroy

Chang-Y the director of northern rail-

ing sold the mines in 1900 and was given
two months grace during which he is
expected to again bring the mines under

company, it was founded by the govern
ment and managed by Chinese officials
and therefore Is the property of the gov

pointed out, likewise belongs to China and
