CLEVELAND NOT A CANDIDATE
President Cleveland Reported as Saying
He Has No Desire to Re=enter Public
Life Again.

New York June 20.--The World
publishes a dispatch from Princeton,
n. j., quoting former President Cleve-
land as saying:
1T is perfectly absurd to suppose
for an instant that | have any desire
to re-enter public life. Nor have |
remotely entertained the thought since
left Washington more than six years
ago. The matter is as far from my
thoughts as it was in 1896. when, all
must admit, it was not within my
hearing or sight. have no higher
aspiration than to pass my days in
peace with my family around me and
take no part in politics which any pri-
vate citizen cannob take with the Ut
most propriety.
Il haze never spokeu to ANYBODY or

COURT FOR ERRING YOUTHS
Rev. A. S. Orne of Syracuse and His Work
in Dealing with Children who are Home
less or have Criminal Tendencies.

now installed in many cities and is re-
garded as a complete success. Con-
corning his work, Mr.. Orne said:
Our criminals have increased rs
per cent during the past ten years
while our population has only in
creased 21 per cent in the same pc
riod, and from 95 to SO per cent come
from the homeless child Fourteen
thousand murders in 1899 against
1000 in 1887; 1900 persons killed by
mobs, twenty being burned; 5000
suicides and nine-tenths of the l,000,-
600 tramps are of this class also
The tragic thing about our crm-
nals-and what should set your readers
to thinking-is their youth. Six and
one-half per cent of the 250,000 pass
ing annually through the county jails
compulsory schools of crime-are
under 16 years of age Three hundred
thousand out of 100000 criminals in
the United States are under 2l. Ind
lana in 1897 added 3S, $50 under l6; in
Chicago in 1896, 1850 boys and girls
under 20 were arrested, 250 being less
than 10 years of age. A few instances
should satisfy the most skeptical of the
imperative and immediate necessity
for adoption of method and appropria-
ton of means to stay this tremendous
tide of criminals that has already be-
come a menace to our civil and Chris
tian institutions.
The offspring of one abandoned
girl traced through six generations
numbered 500. and all We're either
crooks, criminals, insane or idiotic.
A young man married pauper wife
in 1910 In 1880 thirty of their off
spring had been continual county
charges, and when out of the poor
house or prison lived by begging and
stealing. A father, mother and five
children spent the winter of 1880 in
a poorhouse: now all are serving SEN
tences in penal institutions.
What is the remedy? Why, a jul
venile court and an industrial home.
This is the one and only solution of
the juvenile delinquency problem

SECRETARY ROOT RETURNS.
Considering the Controversy Over
New York Harbor Improvement

Considering the Controversy Over
New York Harbor Improvement.
Secretary Root resumed his duties at the
War Department this morning after a visit
to New York and West Point. While at the
Military Academy he approved the recon-
mendation of the committee of architects
in the matter of the general design of i'm
provements at that institution. The plans
were opened to competition and the sue
cessful architects were Cram, Goodhue &
Ferguson of Boston.
It is expected that Secretary Root will
soon announce his action in the contro-
versy over the Chelsea N. Y, harbor i'm
provement While in New York he confer
red with Mayor Low on the subject.
This morning a telephone message was re-
ceived by Assistant Secretary Sanger from
Mr.. Hawkes. the commissioner OF docks at
New York, saying that the city offclals
were preparing an answer to the objections
made by the army engineers to the pro-
posed extension of the piers.
General Gillespie, chief of engineers, who
made a personal examination of the terri
tory. agreed with the engineer officers at
New York that the proposed extension OF
the piers would be serious menace to the
navigation of the river. 1t is that conten-
ton that the city officials and the steam
boat interests desire to cOntrovert. Secre-
tary Root will undoubtedly await the re-
ceipt of their communication before taking
final action In the matter.

WILL PRESS FOR PAYMENT.
Assessment Against Chicago Oleo
margarine Manufacturers.

Commissioner Yerkes Of the internal rev.
enue bureau has decided to sustain the
assessment against the w. ]. Monkey Com
pany of Chicago, an oleomargarine con-
Germ. The matter has been hanging fire
some time The Monkey Company recently
placed upon the market a large amount Of
oleomargarine that was delcately and
highly colored.s
The company paid the tax of n cent per
pound imposed upon what the law terms
uncoIored oleomargarine-that is the prod
uct that is not artifcially colored. By
processes of its own the internal revenue
bureau analysed the oleomargarine and
came to the conclusion that it had been
artifcially colored and would come under
the provisions Of the law imposing a tax
of 10 cents pound
The difference in the amount paid and the
amount assessed was something like $50, :.
O00 1T is stated.
The Monkey company took an appeal from
the assessment and the commissioner has
been considering the appeal. John NJ Har-
Ian of Chicago came here and argued the
matter before the commissioner the claim
ing that would bring it under the terms of
the law as to artificial coloring.
It is understood that the company will
take an appeal to the court of claims,
where test case will be made.
The oleomargarine manufacturers through
out the country have been increasing their
product recently and putting upon the mar
ket well colored goods that were attractive
and marketable. The internal revenue
authorities have been kept busy trying to
determine whether the colorng was such as
to impose the high tax of ten cents a pound
The oleomargar1ne manufacturers claim
that they have found a way of making
sa1able product that cannot be taxed at
the top rate.

CONDITIONS IN SAMOA.
Commander Underwood's Report to the
NAVY Department.


Commander Underwood. commander of
the naval station at Tutuila, has made
report to the Navy Department, under
date of Page Page, April q. in regard to
conditions in Samoa. He says the people
generally appear contented and we'll salts
fed with the operations Of the government.
Nunuli is In an excellent sanitary condition
and the other. towns are in fair state.
The road from Leone to Pago Pago is in a
passable Ieondition, except for the inevi-
table heaviness caused by recent hard rains.
The chiefs Of Iliiili and Nuuuli complain
that their towns are undergoing famine.
With the native Samoans this statement is
not to be taken literally. 1t means that
the ordinary conditions do not obtain a
maximum, amount of food with a minimum
amount Of work. Commander Underwood
says that as there are quantities of wild
yams in the bush back Of the towns the
people need not suffer if only they are will
ing to labOr,r.t
The hurricanes Of January and February
crops, but the. commandant says that there
Is no likelihood of any suffering from lack
of food anywhere in the islands. except pos
sibly in a few small towns on the northern
shore of Tutuila,, which, by reason of their
exposed position suffered rather more Sc
verely than their neighbors. Preparations
have been made to relieve them should the
necessity arrive.

CLAIM DIsALLowED.
Decision Regarding Retired Pay Of the
Late Justice James


A decision was handed down by the Court
OF Claims today involving the retired pay OF
Justice Charles P. James, deceased. former
ly an associate justice of the Supreme
Court of the District of Columbia The
claim was for additional Hetired pay at the
rate of $1,000 year from December 1.
1892. the date Justice James retired, to Au-
gust 8. 1899, the date of his death, the
claim being on the ground that although
the salary of Justice James was 1000 until
1891. 1T had been increased to 5000 from
that time until the date of his retirement
and that, the larger amount should have
been paid him during the years of his re-
tirement.
The petition of the claimant is disallowed
the opinion of the court being delivered by
Justice Howry. After a somewhat lengthy
discussion of the constitutional question as
to the status Of the court. the act of June
1, 1885, is cited. This act fixes the salary
Of the associate justices of the Supreme
Court of the District at $4,000 per, ,annum,
and although in the appropriation act for
the year 1892. and subsequently thereafter
the amount specified for the salary of the
associate justices was 5000, the provision
in these acts is held not to change the
statutory salary of $4,000.
