tanned by an indomitable will, and con
fdent in his own powers of resistance,
General Lew Wallace is fighting the in

and courage that the more optimistic
Of his friends are beginning to believe
that he may survive after all.
Instead Of preparing to die, he is pre-
pairing to live, and is mapping out a
tour which is. to embrace Cuba, Porto
Rico and Panama, and he plans to make
the trip after the Christmas holidays.
Despite his weakened condition, he con-
tinues to work on his memoirs and de-
votes two or three days a week to that
task. He does this without the aid Of
a stenographer or an amanuensis, and
turns out clear, legible manuscript.
General Wallace s powers Of recupera-

has emaciated and weakened him, and he
is only the ghost Of his former vigorous
self.

BUYING UP TOWN
TO KILL SALOON
John D. Rockefeller, Unable to
Purchase Tavern, Will Starve
Out the Owner.
New York Sun Special Service.

SSSSANA
Tarrytown, N. j., Nov. 2S.-John D.
Rockefeller s war on John j. Melin's sa-
loon property in Briggsville, bids fair to
be successful. Melin keeps a small
tavern on the road to the Standard Oil
magnate's home. It is obnoxious to
him, and he has time and again tried to
get possession Of the land, but failed. He
then tried to get Melin s license re-
voked, but so far Melin has beaten him.
The battle has been stubbornly
fought. When Mr.. Rockefeller realized
| he could not GUST Melin he made new
move, that Of taking Melin business
away from him. That is what many
believe is his principal reason for buy
ing up Briggsville.
If Mr.. Rockefeller buys the land, and
there are no people to patronize Me-
lin there is nothing for Melin to do but
to close out at Rockefeller's price.
Mr.. Rockefeller's recent purchases
have had their effect on Melin already.
His business is dwindling away and
those who frequent his place say he is
losing money.
Mr.. Rockefeller s agents have made
offers to every landowner in Briggsville
lexcepting Melin. They have been
ESPECIALLY anxious to buy all the land
