HOLIDAY, WITH NOTHING DOING
Exchange Closed On Account OF
Election,

There was little doing in the Ameri-
Gus cotton market yesterday, and the
warehouses reflected dulIness in that
line. The New York exchange took
holiday on account of the election
there, and buyers and sellers here
would do but little without market
quotations to guide them. Very little
came In from the country, and few
sales were made at and around ten
cents.

ENTIRE REWARD GIVEN
TO WASHINGTON MAN
Judge Henderson, of Rockville, Decides Case of Claim
ants in Rosenstein Murder Case Of Nav 1899
Five Sought Share of Money.

A case which has been pending since
May. 1899. and which interested many
washington people at the time. has at
last been concluded by q decision OF
Judge James B. Henderson in Rockville.
Judge Henderson handed down his de-
cision yesterday in the case of the
county commissioners of Montgomery
county VS.. Henry Hebron. Charles G.
Clark and others, No. 1858 equity, in that
court. wherein the amount of reward
offered by the commissioners on May Is.
1899. for the arrest and conviction of the
party or parties who committed the as
sault on Louis Rosensteln and wife on
the morning of May %. 1899. at Shdell.
Nd. was the subject of contention.
The offer OF reward was published I'm
the county newspapers and otherwise.
and Armistead Taylor and John Alfred
Brown were arrested. tried for, and con-
victed of the crime and duly executed.
The reward was claimed by Charles c.
Clark. William w. Easley and Robert
Hewlett. members of the Metropolitan
police force OF Washington; Henry Heb
ron, OF Washington. and Nathan s.
White. OF this county. The commission
ers were unable TO decide who was en-
titled to the reward offered. and on De-
cember 10, 1899. filed in court their bill
The Washington times., 1903-10-27

Of interpleader. In order that the con
fiicting claimants might interplead and
the court decide to whom the money
should be paid
The defendant Hebron claimed all OF
the reward. whereas White claimed half.
and Easley and Hewlett claimed all be-
tween them, Clark making no claim.
The cCurt decides that Easley and
Howlatt, being members Of the police
force of Washington, are not entitled
to participate in the distribution OF the
reward offered. White did not know
Of the offer Of a reward when lac ar
rested Brown, and. therefore. was not
entitled.
All of the evidence taken in the case
tended to show that Henry Hebron was
the one who gave the information lead
ing TO the arrest of Taylor at Fowiers'
Hill. in the District Of Columbia. The
court reviewed this testimony at length.
and passed an order directing the entire
amount OF the reward. 500. be paid 70
Hebron.
The arrest viii be remembered by the
police and authorities of Washington
City. for at the time Sergeant Passau
was shot by Taylor while in the small
house on FowIer's HsI. The house was
set on fire before the fugitive gave him
self up.

PLENTY OF PEAT
CLOSE TO CHICAGO
Lecturer Says There Are Hundreds of
Acres Of ~coming Fuel" in
City Limits.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct 2s.-''Peat is the
coming fuel. and there is enough of It
within fifty miles Of Chicago to supply
the city for a hundred years. declared
j. Campbell Morrison in a lecture before
the Robert Fulton Association Of Sta
tionary Engineers.
Peat Is coal IN embryo" he added.
Under heat and great pressure it be-
comes coal Nature takes thousands Of
years TO complete the Transformation,
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 briquet impervious to
moisture without driving on part Of the
volatile substances contained In the pear
and iessening the fuel value. But an
American invention has made this pos
sible at small expense.
In the new process the peat IL dug
by machinery and delivered TO shred
der. which pulls the hbers apart. IL is
then dried In a long inclined rotating
cylinder. through which hot gases are
passing. The dried peat ls pulverized
and nodded into briquets under heavy
pressure, and the briquets are forced
through heated moIds, which brings the
oils In the peat to the surface and gives
It smooth finish that water viii not
penetrate.
These briquets make the best fuel on
earth They burn with a clear. bright
flame and no smoke. and give more heat
than an equal weight OF coal. They
retain their shape until consumed. and
leave small amount OF ash as fine as
-four. Peat foot thick over one acre
will make 300 tons OF briquets. There
are hundreds of acres OF IL within the
city limits Of Chicago"
