Crime in CHICAGO.

Chicago, April 26.-Residents OF Chi
cago who drew a long breath OF .elief
when the three car barn bandits were
hanged, were given evidence within
twenty-four hours that gangs of des-
perate murderers and robbers still in
fest every section of the city. Within
ten hours after the executions two mur-
ders had been committed and within
fifteen hours after the hanging this
number had been doubled, along with
the probable fatal shooting of robber
Meanwhile homes were being robbed
right and left and hold-ups were re-
ported from every direction.
The appalling outburst of crime cul"
minated this morning with the attempt
OF three desDeradoes to hold up an
electric car on the Joliet and Chicago
line at Brighton Park. The passen-
gers were lined up and one man had
been robbed of his watch and money,
when two policemen jumped on the
car. The robbers fled but one of them
was later cornered in a dance hall and
captured.

Excitement in Hungary.

Vienna. April 26.-The Hungarian
situation is regarded here as alarming.
The Socialists threaten to proclaim a
general strike throughout the country
and in such an event it is stated in po-
'litical circles, Count Tisza, the Hun
garian premier will put the whole king
dom under martial law
Popular excitement appears to be
reaching a dangerous point and the
critical condition of affairs is further
intensified by the near approach of La
Dor Day. Following the tragic event
at the market town of Elesd. near
Grosswarden, yesterday, in which a
Socialist killed the commander of the
gendarmerie, followed by the killing of
,twenty-three rioters and the wounding
'ot forty by the gendarmes. general
strike has broken out at Grosswardein.
To-day the shops cafes and restau-
rants there and even the schools are
closed. and the business life of the
town is entirely suspended.

Scarcity Of Eggs Predicted.

Il cannot remember but one season
in twenty years when eggs were
scarcer and sold at as high prices as
they are this spring. Once before We
had another such season which was
in 1896" said Louis Meisel, foreman
of the egg department of the Armour
Packing Company yesterday.
THE cause for the shortage Of eggs
in Denver this season is on account Of
the Worlds Fair at st. Louis. The
farmers in Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa.
Missouri and northern points who
have supplied the Denver wholesale
houses heretofore are holding what
eggs they have to send to ST Louis
Just as soon as the crowds begin to
swarm into that city.
so far there are not 1000 cases of
eggs stored this season in Denver by
the combined commission merchants,
whereas this time last year they had
$4,000 cases put away, 1t means a
panic on the egg market in Denver
next fall and winter"

PRESIDENT LoUBET IN ROME.
Received With Pomp by King Victor
Emanuel.

Rome. April 26.-President Loubet
accompanied by Foreign Minister Deb
Casse and q distinguished party Of
French officials. arrived In Rome to-
Emanuel to Paris in October last.
They were met at the station by the
King. who went in state. accompanied
by the Duke Of Genoa, the Count of
Turin and other court dignitaries.
At the station also were the members
OF the Italian cabinet, representatives
of the Senate and chamber Of Deputies
and all OF the high officers of the
state.
The drive to the Quirinal had all
the appearance of a triumphant march
eliminating in an ovation at the pal
ace. where President Loubet, King
Victor Emanuel. Queen Helena and
the princes were obliged to appear on
the balcony three times.
Ambassador Meyer, Charlemagne
Tower. United States Ambassador to
Germany, and Andrew ID. White, wit
messed the procession from the garden
of the American church, in which tri-
'bune had been erected On this
tribune were also many members OF
the diplomatic corps and several
Americans. including Bishop Leonard
Of Ohio and G. b. Thomas of Philadel-
phia. Along the route were massed
more than 100000 persons, including
many from the provinces and abroad.
Immediately after she had received
President Loubet. Queen Helena sent
a cordial telegram to Madame Loubet.
saying that the rejoicing OF to-day
only lacked the presence of her Of
whose amiability | had many proofs
while In Paris and the memory OF
which is unalterable."
All Rome was magnificently illumi-
mated at night. A torchlight process
sion in which 1000 participated pro-
duced a fantastic effect. President
Loubet, the King and Queen and the
princes saw the tOrchlight procession
from the balcony of Quirlnal, on which
they remain for twenty minutes, being
constantly acclaimed.
From an official source it is learned
that Italy desires to prove that, while
loval to the Triple Alliance, she is
quite free to entertain friendly re-
lations with other powers having for
her object the maintenance of peace.
This object was brought about by the
complete Anglo-France-Italian accord
with regard to affairs in the Balkans
which has been working with perfect
harmony since last November. Any
other Interpretation which may be CIV
ell to the Presidents presence in Italy
is unfounded.
President Loubet dined with the
King and Queen at the Quirinal.

SUBTERRANEAN STREAMS.
General Palmer Plans to Save Water
for Irrigation.

Colorado Springs, April 27.-Severa1
thousand acres of arid lands shortly
will be irrigated from large subter
ranean streams, according to present
results Of recent Investigations on the
part Of General William ]. Palmer's
corps of engineers in the vicinity of
Garden ranch. and at Templeton's
gap, north Of Austin Bluffs.
IT. has been knCwn for some time
that Ghese streams exist. and several
years ago l.. r. Enrich, formerly of
this city. made casual observations of
them. Recently the work was taken
up by General Palmer. and engineers
under his direction. have dug test pits
which revealed several large under
ground streams. The engineers state
lnat practically in every water course
north of Colorado Springs these sub
terranean channels exist. water COM
ing from seepage of the divide around
Palmer lake.
In one channel alone. according to
a member Of the survey. there is a
flow of from two to three cubic feet
per second, and because of the in
crease in the slope of adjacent lanGs.
courses. this flow can be easily
brought to the surface.
General Palmer contemplates the
thorough testing Of the scheme and, if
possible, the channels will be united
and the water ultimately stored in a
reservoir. Present indications point
to the reclamation of thousands of
acres Of arid land.

Writ Of Supersedeas.

Denver, April 27.-The Supreme
Court has granted a writ Of superse-
deas to Adjutant General Sherman
Bell and Captain Bulkeley Wells, which
in effect grants stay of execution of
the recent order of Judge Theron Ste
vens of the Seventh judicial district,
which declared the military officers in
contempt of court, ordered their ar
rest and incarceration in the county
Jail of San Miguel and imposed fine
of $500 each. The writ of prohibition
does away with any further attempt
toward their arrest by the civil au
thorities until the Supreme Court has
looked into the case and either
affirmed or reversed the judgment of
the lower court.
In granting the writ of supersedeas
Chief Justice Gabbert said: The
question confronting the court, in this
as in the original proceedings now be-
fore us, are new and important. The
question as to whether the return
made by the respondents. who failed
to appear with the prisoner. is sufii-
cient, will have to be carefully con-
sidered. The writ of supersedeas will,
therefore. be granted upon condition
that each of the plaintiffs ii error give
a separate bond for $4,000 and leave
it with the clerk of this court. When
this other case. the original proceed
Ing, has been considered. 1t may throw
some light upon this proceeding as

KANSAS ANSWER
ITO MOTION TO DISMISS SUIT
Denies Having Adopted Doctrine Of
Prior Appropriation-insi on
Old Doctrine Of Riparian Rights

Denver. April 27.-A copy OF the an.
swer OF the state OF Kansas to the mo-
tion Of the state OF Colorado to dismiss
the water-rights suit now pending in
the Supreme Court OF the United
States was received by Attorney Gen
eral Nathan C. Miller yesterday.
The answer denies the contention of
the Colorado attorneys TO the effect
that the suit is being maintained by
that state for the benefit of individuals.
and says the state is acting as SOW
lereign guardian and trustee for a
large number of citizens OF that COM
monwealth. A portion of the answer
reads as follows:
We contend that tine bill cannot be
dismissed at this stage of the proceed
,ings because the answer traverses the
allegations of the bill and sets up new
matter which might be a defense to
it However strong the traverse of
any matters in the bill or the alega-
rions of new matter in the answer. the
motion to dismiss must be considered
entirely from the standpoint OF the al
legations Of the bill. and this court, in
jts opinion upon the demurrer held
that 1t would disregard the technical
titles and would reserve the considera-
tion Of the main questions of law in
v0lved until proof had been taken upon
the substantive allegations of the bill,
when with the facts all before it, 1t
might the more intelligently and fl
nally apply the law"
1T has been repeatedly maintained
by the defendants that the state OF
Kansas has recognized and adopted
the doctrine of prior appropriation.
and that thereby it has in some man,
,ner stopped itself from asserting the
common-law riparian right. This
same contention was made by the
state of Colorado in its demurrer to
the bill and was overruled by the
court at the former hearing Even If
this contention be true, it would not
prove that there are any appropra-,
lions OF water in Kansas. The bill
does not show any such. but the most
superficial examination of the irriga-
lion law of Kansas will show that it.
differs widely and materially from the
doctrine of prior appropriation as it
exists in the arid states. To a degree,
it gives right of appropriation. and
between appropriations recognizes the
principle that first in time is first in,
right; but it also recognizes the COM
mon-law doctrine of riparian rights.
provides for the condemnation OF wat
er as against those rights, the assess
ment Of damages for taking it and
proper remedies for the riparian own
er who is injured by the taking of
water for irrigation purposes. And
herein it differs completely and entire
ly from the Colorado law or the law
of any of the other socalled arid
states.
I'VE submit in conclusion, that all
the grounds of the motion of these
defendants were in fact before this
court upon the hearing of the demur-
rer of the state of Colorado and were
then overruled, as will appear by an
inspection of the opinion, found in 1856
U. S. 1875"

Proposed Zionist Colony.

London, April 24.-The foreign Of
flee has now come to a definite agree
ment with the Zionists as to the situa.
tion and extent of the colony 1t is
ready to give them in East Africa.
This is to consist Of 5000 square miles
of land northeast of Victoria, Nyanza.
1t includes the Nandi plateau and is
very fertile, well watered and well for
ested, while as the native population
in this part of the country is not large,
a positive source of trouble will be
avoided. An important point in the
concession is that the land is only five
miles distant from the Uganda rail-
road, and thirty hours railway journey
from the coast.
A committee will start in June to
examine the site and decide as to its
suitability.

Kaffir corn will probably produce

ure and little cultivation than any
other crop adapted to this arid region.
For work horses, kaftir corn fodder

POPEJ0Y AGAIN
SUES THE sTRArToN ESTATE

Man VINO Claims That He Grubstaksd

lion ooiiars.-Svit Was Once sst-
tied for Fifty thousand oeiiars-
Another Man Wants Halt Million.
Colorado Springs. Colo. April IL
Two claims against the Stratton e.
tate. akgregating 38,5OO.000. were nle4
with the clerk Of the County Court yes
terday. Leslie w. Popejoy. . contract
or OF this city, instituted suit for $s.-
600, 900, and Wesley Gourley. prbsum-
ably Of Denver, fled suit for $780,.
900.
Yesterday was the last day upon
which claims against the estate could
be fled Gourley's papers were hls6
about noon Popejoy's demand for S.
O0O, 900 was taken into court only .
few minutes before the closing hour.
The latter demand Is based on the
assertion that the claimant grub
staked" Stratton during the early days
Of Cripple Creek and brings to mind
the suit brought by Popejoy against
Stratton on May 16. 1896. for onehalf
the value of the defendants posses
sions. This suit was compromised q
year later Stratton. 1t is said, having
given Popejoy $4,000. The latter now
claims to have recently discovered
that Stratton had bribed certain wit
nesses and otherwise fraudulently
gained the compromise.
In conclusion is statement by
Popejoy. claiming that to his best
knowledge onehalf the value OF the
estate was $S,0O0,000. It was sworn
to before Daniel w. Thompson, notary
public.
Westley Gourley's claim was made
out in similar form and is for "one-
equal one-half Of the proceeds Of the
sale Of the Independence and Wash
ington lodes. according to the terms
of a contract. dated October 8, 1891.
$500. .0OO"
The executors Of the estate deny all
knowledge Of both Gourley and his al
legged claim. 1t has always been pre-
sumed that the independence alone
sold for $l0000,000. in which case
Gourley's one-half share would amount
to $5,O00.0O0.
DR.. Rice said: II have never heard
Of the contract which Wesuey Gourley
claims to hold, and do not know who
he is"
