"TAa, YOU'RE IT."
Reception of MT. Cleveland at the
 Chicago Theatre.

SAAN06S
 Chicago Chronicle.
 From the Chicago club to the Stude- baker theater Is but a few steps and MT Cleveland refused the offer of a car riage. Short as was the walk, however, he did not escape recognition on the side walk and responded to a number of greet ings from pedestrians. He entered the theatre unobserved during the first act of '"The County Chairman" and was scarcely seated in a box when Maclyn Ar buckle. who impersonates the leading character of Jim Hacker. spoke these lines in the play:
 When destiny comes along and taps a man on the shoulder and says Tag. you're 1t! it's no time for poor, weak mortals to interfere" .,
 Whether Mir. Cleveland believed there was any significance in the lines Is a question which the members of the box party could not answer. for he gave them no intinatlon either way. He betrayed unmistakabie signs of enjoyment of the play. however laughing heartily as the political situation was developed before him.
 When the curtain went down and the theater was lighted up a curious move ment began In the audience. 4 woman suddenly arose in the middle of the thea ire and gaxed intently toward the box  in which Mir. Cleveland and party were seated Heads began to turn In the same direction in all parts of the theater. A man got up. holding a little girl in his arms, and pointed toward the ex-Presi- dent Then. as if in obedience to signal. the whole audience suddenly arose and faced MT. Cleveland. : Somebody cheered and hundreds joined in the shout of welcoming recognition. Women waved their handkerchiefs and clapped their hands. For fully minute Mir. Cleve- land sat silent. while the demonstration increased in volume.
 When the ex-President arose and bowed In acknowledgment of the greeting the cheers reached a vociferous stage. In which even the women joined. The orchestra lent it's aid in saluting Mir. Cleveland and for a moment the scene might well have recalled a political con- vention to the distinguished visitor.

SURE ENOUGH WILL BE THE
 NEW MONEY. -.
No More of the Crisp Notes--The Government Likely to Adopt c Novel Method-How New
 Process Operates.

The days of the "crisp banknote" are numbered, according to the Washington correspondent of The New York Tribune. Instead of being crisp, the money which the Government Bureau of Engraving and Printing will hereafter turn out will be soft and velvety, if important experi- ments which are now being conducted in the presence of Treasury officials for the purpose of demonstrating the advantages of a novel chemical treatment for paper prove satisfactory. The prediction Is made that the experiments will prove sat- tsfactory. as they have been almost com pleted. The result of the adoption of the new secret process will be to revolution ize portion of the work connected with the printing of the paper money of the United States. Under the new process it will take just sixty days less time to manufacture a banknote than under the present method, which is regarded as extremely important in the present com mercial era, when new money is some times demanded immediately. and to sup ply which the Government has to lay most careful plans and keep banknotes printed ahead.
 Besides rendering paper soft and vel- vety the new process also makes 1t non- shrinkable, an important accomplish ment which has heretofore baffled the ingenuity of the paper manufacturer. and which. when applied to the printing of postage stamps alone. will make a saving of just 20 per cent. of stock and work Because paper shrinks after 1t has receiv- ed the impression of the head of George Washington on the one side in the man. ufacture of postage stamps. and the coat ing of nucilage on the other, and because no two sheets are alike, one-fifth arc ruined in the process of perforating.

Standing amid these mute memorials of long-gous past, mood of reverie is easily induced. What cycles of change and what tremendous
 cataciysms have these stony ferms sur vtved! What sort of birds once rested In the branches that these great trees tpbore? What beasts lurled in the shadows that were cast hy their leaf age? Fossils of animals of unknown and extinct species are found scattered about among these immense rocky dolomite or
 magnetism limestone. Certain that 1t s before the subsistence of the land which
 bore these forests there was abundant life of some sort here, that was buried
 beneath the inrushing waters as the land slowly sank and the great trees toppIed
 to their overthrow. Through long ages
 the ocean detritus was dropped through
 yielding waters. grain by grain. until the great sandstone stratum was piled upon these fallen monarchs of the primevsi forest. Then followed an age oS slow uplifting that drained of the waters, and then the erosion by stream and storm that at least restored these buried gianta to the light of day.

Nonshrinkable parsr.

The invention is the product of the combined efforts for the last i've years of E.. H. Fowler. chief draughtsman of the Coast and Geodetic Survey, and D. N. Hoover. chief printer of that bureau. When MT. Fowler took charge of the draughting division. five years ago. he was told by the chief printer that it was impossible to print the maps prepared Tn the draughting division, because there was no paper to be had which would not shrink, and thus render the maps inaccurate as to scale, and consequently of no scientific value. All such maps, therefore, had to be copied by hand on handmade linen paper manufactured es- pecially for that purpose. Tn college Mir Fowler had taken a great interest in chemistry, and he at once began the se- ries of experiments which two years ago resulted in the chemical solution which, when applied to paper, materially changes its quality. Paper so treated Is declared to be ''mellowed and non-shrtnx- able.' The process Is not expensive. it has been patented both in the United States and foreign countries, and although no publicity has heretofore been given to the discovery of Messrs. Fowler and Hoover. the large paper manufacturers of this country have heard of the re. suits accomplished and are making flat tering offers to the inventors for royalty rights. The Japanese Government has also bid for the process, and as Japan has for centuries been considered the magician of the world in the art of paper making the offer from the Orient is re- garded as a ma=ked acknowledgment of merit.
 The United States Government, however. is to have the first advantages of the dis covery, and should the officials now in. vestigating the process decide that It's value Is too great to be kept under re- straint of patent laws, the Government

Why One Militiaman Would Not Shoot
at the Strikers.
During the recent coal strike COM
nany of Pittsburg militia was sta
toned at Scranton with the mission to
protect the scab and strike terror to
the hearts of the union men.
One of the men in uniform was
strolling through the town while off
duty and was soon surrounded by a
crowd of strikers, who sought to en-
list his sympathy.
would you shoot at your fellow
men?" asked burly striker
Certainly not" answered the mill
iaman. 81 never shot at any one in
ny life, and wouldn't begin at this
ate day"
Good for you," cried the miners,
enthusiastically. Come in and have
something"
After they had RECALLED the soldier
to his hearts content one of the strik-
ers said:
"But if you are in sympathy with us.
why did you obey the call to como
here?"
II didn't say was in sympathy with
the strike, replied the Pittsburger.
"You said you wouldn't shoot at u.s."

Injunction Against Packers ,cannee

Injunction Against Packers ,cannce
3 BE clreumvented.
Washington March 28. - The de.
partmeht OF justice is closely watch
ing the developments OF the merger by
the beef packers in Chicago and will
be ready to meet any new move to
circumvent the injunction granted by
Judge Grosscup.
1t Is maintained by the department
that merger of all the packing plant
will not affect the injunction. That ir
junction must be dissolved befor>.
the beef packers can ignore it. 1t is
assumed that the packers will appeal
from the decision of Judge Grosscup
and have their case heard by the SUI
preme court of the United States.
Should they attempt to ignore the
injunction by merging all their prop
critics the department will proceed
against them for contempt of court,
and this is remedy which it is be-
lieved will be even more effective
than the injunction itself, because
there will be severer penalties.
The lawyers of the department will
also meet the merger when effected
with suit under the second section
Of the Sherman act which provides
that every person who shall monop-
olize or attempt to monopolize any
part of the trade or commerce among
the several states or with foreign
nations snail be deemed
Guilty Of Misdemeanor,
and on conviction shall be punished
by fine not exceeding $4,000 or by
not exceeding one year,
or by both, said punishment to be in
the discretion of the court.
The development of the merger will
be followed closely by the attorney
general and his assistant attorneys,
and every effort made to prevent set
ting aside the injunction granted by
Judge Grosscup or it's evasion. The
new Elkins law will also be employed
against the merger, and it is believed
that it will be most effective in the
way of preventing the granting of
preferential rates by the railroads.
The new law makes it illegal to at
tempt to secure such preferential
rates, as we'll as to grant them. 1t
also prevents granting passes or free
carriage or any other favors whatever
to favorite shippers, and the inter.
state commerce commission is pre-
pairing to watch carefully develop
ments of this kind and aid the depart
ment of justice in prosecuting those
who are guilty of violating it in any
particular whatever.

VARIOUS BRANCHES OF THE
DEPARTMENT BEING RE. i.
ORGANIZED.

Washington, March 28-The state
OF mental uncertainty and worry
which has existed among the minor
oftcials and employees of the treasury
department for several weeks has be-
come almost a panic. The demoraliza.
ton OF the service is no more appar-
ent in Washington than it is in sew
eral Of the larger cities where the
treasury has a large force of EN-.
ployes
The large number of dismissals and
transfers that have been effected by
the present treasury administration
and the obvious willingness of the
head Of the department to entertain
stories against officers heretofore
trusted have caused CONSERVATION,
and have confirmed the belief in many
quarters that Secretary Shaw takes
the palm among recent secretaries of
the treasury as a headsman.
The reorganization of the customs
service, although it has already
brought about the removal of Assis-
tant Secretary Spaulding and many
other changes in the personnel of the
service both in Washington and New
York, has only just begun. The steam
boat inspection service is being re-
organized, and. as many persons be-
iieve, with good reason.
Yesterday 1t became known that
Walter S. Chance, chief of the divis-
ion Of special agents, was
Slated for Transfer
to minor position, reducing his pres
ent salary of $40 day to something
like $4,000 a year. Chance has held
Office for several years and has given
exceptional evidence of integrity and
ability in the opinion of several lead
ing officials of the treasury, both of
this and former administrations. Sec
rotary Shaw has felt for some time
that the division of special agents
was in need of reorganization. He
made the statement some months ago
that he believed many government Of
ficials outlived their usefulness after
a service of four, five or six years,
and that this was especially true of
the special agents of the treasury.
Chance has had long experience.
William p, Williams, the assistant
treasurer of the United States at Chi
cago, is to be dismissed unless he can
be induced to resign. Secretary Shaw
began an. investigation of his Office
some time ago, and it is charged that
the assistant treasurer has been car
ryfng on his books, unreported for
some time, shortage of 5000 due to.
purchases of short-weight gold coins.
The investigations relating to Gen.
eral Appraiser Jewell at New York are
being pushed. A report on this case
is expected within few days and the
present outlook is that successor to
Jewell will be appointed.
