the subject. 1t takes up in detail the
mosquito campaign which has been
waged in the State, discusses the
character Of the Insect, shows how

to Bound Brook, Dunellen and even
Plainfield.
Continuing this part of the report
states that there are few territories
so fayorably located for practical
work in discriminating the pest as the
Raritan river section. Drainage by
bitches is the remedy suggested, on
the theory that mosquito cannot exist
without water to breed in. A map

VANDERBILT FAIL
TO ANNEX CANADA
Earl Gray, Not the Duke Of Marl-

General.
New York Sun Special Service.

oPoSA"l
London, Aug. 30.-Earl Gray, and
not the Duke of Marlborough, is to
succeed the Earl of Mimic as govern
or general of Canada. This Informal
ton developed this afternoon in SENT
official circles, and the appointment
Is expected to be announced just as
soon as the exigencies of colonial,
diplomacy can be met and Canada
relieved of her present ruler without
too much scandal.
The talk about the appointment Of
the Duke of Marlborough was better
founded than most people imagine,
and it is whispered in official circles
here that the storm of protest from
the Dominion at the first mention of
his name finally caused reversal Of
intentions in high quarters.
The delay in definitely abandoning
Marlborough is attributed to the pres
tige of his newly acquired millions
and the exercise of a certain amount
Of political sagacity, which he seems
to have obtained with his Vanderbilt
| wealth.
Marlborough to be governor
general of Canada, and the Wander
bilts supported him in his ambition.
The high official position held by
Lord Curzon of Kedleston, who mar
ried Miss Letter OF Chicago, has wor-
ried certain other American families
with sons-in-laW eligible to prefer
ment, and to be the wife of the gov
ernor general of Canada would be
almost as comforting as to be married
to the viceroyl of India.
The mind of the people of the Do-
miniOn, however, as expressed thru
their newspapers, was against the
exploitation Of any American family
at their expense.
Earl Gray, who is now in the
United States, is not unknown in
| America, having been a transatlan-
| tic visitor before. He is cultured,
capable man, owns $4,000 acres Of
African com any, and has been lord
lieutenant of Northumberland since
1899. He is a descendant of the fa-
nous commanding officer Of the name
| in the American war of the revolu-
| ton.

New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Owingsville, KY, Aug. 30.-From
Marshall county comes news to-day Of
a desperate battle between a six
foot blacksnake and a three-foot cop
perhead which resulted in a victory
for the blacksnake. Rev. J. w. More
field saw the fight. He found the
snakes in deadly combat.
The copperhead repeatedly sunk her
poisonous fangs into the blacksnake,
which attempted to coil itself around
the others body. After a time the
take effect. Suddenly the blacksnake
turned and crawled into the un-
derbrush. Morefeld followed and
saw it crawl up to a peculiar
looking weed, of which it ate, and
then returned to the scene Of the con-
flict. The copperhead disappeared,
but the blacksnake found it's trail,
which it followed.
Morefield walked after it until the
blacksnake found the copperhead, and
after another battle, the blacksnake
coiled around the copperhead and
squeezed it to death. The blacksnake
then swallowed the copperhead and
crawled slowly away, but the minister
killed it.

PACKERS FIGHTING
ANTITRUST WRIT
Steps Taken by Beef Combine to
Oppose Governments
Suit.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Washington, Aug. ,30.-The beef
trust. has determined to fight for. a
dissolution Of the injunction issued
against it by Judge Grosscup in the
federal court in Chicago. 1t has paid
for printing the record in the case,
and now 1t is in shape to have the
supreme court consider the question
raised by it in respect to the order of
the Chicago judge.
1t was the belief of the department
Of justice that the trust did not intend
to fight. This belief grew out of the
fact that the trust made no answer to
the repeated requests of the clerk of
the supreme court for the money
reeded to have the record reduced to
printed pages. It looked as if the
trust regarded the order of Judge
Grosscup with so little concern that it
would let the matter go by default.
In the regular order of procedure il
the supreme court the case will come
up for hearing about the middle OF
November. There are over 100 cases
ahead of 1t on the docket. 1t would
be senseless for Attorney General
Moody, it is said. to ask for an adj
vancement of the case, as the United
States could not gain any more than
it has by the early determination ot
the case and there is chance that j,
might lose by having the highest APP
pellate court in the land dissolve the
writ of Injunction.

New York Sun Special Service.

Omaha, Neb., Aug. 3O.-It became
known today that in his efforts to Sc
cure a legislature that will send him
to the United States senate, William J..
Bryan has met with a situation that
means failure. Since the democratic
national convention, Bryan has been
working like a Trojan for a legislature
IcompOSed of men friendly to him.
When fusion in Nebraska became as
sured it was the opinion Of politicians
that. the senatorship was within Bry-
ans reach.
Now, however, trouble has arisen In
frefusaf Of former Congressman A. 8.
Shallenberger Of the Fifth congress
sional district, to take up the fight in
his district. With the fifth district in
line for Bryan, there was every chance
I that Bryan would control the legisla-
ture. Without the fifth district, there
is no chance at all. So say the po-
litical leaders. Shallenberger is the
only democrat who can carry the dis
trict. Shallenberger declines to make
the race. This is the explanation in
his own words:
When I wanted to be candidate for
governor and had a good chance to
get the nomination and the office,
Bryan refused to let me run. He was

The horse exhibit at the state fair
is the finest this year that the fair has
ever had. This is especially true of
the twenty-five stations exhibited by
Mclaughlin Bros. who import more
stations from France than all other

horses this week at the Ohio State

Their Percheron horses at St. Louis
have already won the first, second,
third, fourth and fifth prizes in every
class, and their French coach stations
are doing equally as well.
All lovers of draft and coach stall
