Except That Consolidated win Re-
ceive Ton From otter Lines.

The directors of the Consolidated
Telephone Company held q meeting on
Wednesday in the Offices of ,. Waiter
Barnes, general manager of the com
pany, at (which ttne some important
business was Hransasted Among those
present were y. /. Alexander and G. E.
Pride, of Chrlssbtrg; G. e. Manley. E.
F. Hartley and j. Walter Barnes. Of
Fniranont.
The whole d.ty was devoted 10 making
contracts with independent lines for the
service they exchanged with the Con-
solidated. The Pine Grove Telephone
Company, the Burton and Washington
Telephone Company, md the Winfield
and RoTacsburg Telephone Company, were
all represented Mt this meeting.
The purpose of the meeting was TO
renew contracts with the Independent
lines, wild, whom they already have con-
tracts, and 10 make agreements with
those companies with which none exist
ed. PIP 10 The present time the Consolid-
ated Company has exchanged service
without cost to the smaller lines, and in
return received the same from them.
THAT Hhe smaller lines mcre the greatest
bencficiaries on account of this is con-
coded and that they could not give as
much as they received Is easily com
pretended. The company thinking that.
they should be recompensed further than
return service for these favors, called
this meeting to make contracts for fhe
use of their line by the patrons of the
independent lines. The whole day was
consumed in discussing this movement
pro and con, but they eventually arrived
at an understanding, and the service will
be Continued the same as ever, except
that the Consolidated will receive ton
from the either lines.

Supreme Court Says Land May Be
Taken for Irrigation Projects.
Olympia, Sept. 29.-In affirming the
decision of the superior court of Kitti-
tas county in the case of Frank S.
Weed ct al, respondents, VS.. Thomas
B. Goodwin, appellant, the supreme
court has upheld the constitutionality
of the act of the legislature of 1899
providing for the appropriation of
lands for the purpose of extending irri-
cation projects.
In appealing from this judgment
condemning his lands, across which an
irrigation ditch of the respondent was
projected, Appellant Goodwin attacked
the law as in contravention of the Sec
ton of the constitution which provides
that no legislative measure shall cover
more than on subject in the title, also
because the law in question did not re-
quire due process of law in taking the
property and did not provide for the
payment of damages in addition to the
value Of the land taken. None of these
contentious was given weight by the
supreme court and the law was upheld
in every particular.

New York, Sept. 26.-Roswell Mil

Paul Railway Company: F. S. Bond.
Peter Geddse and g. w. Hardness, di-
rectors, left for Milwaukee yesterday
to tatend the annual meeting of the
stock holders to be held in that city.
One of the directors, who did not
care to have his name mentioned, said
that the board will take up the ques-
ton of building an extension to the
Pacific coast, but he does not think
anything approaching definite con-
clusion will be reached. He declared
that if the road decided to build
coast extension the terminal would
probably be erected at Seattle. He
admitted that this was the plan. From
present indications he does not think
the stockholders will object to the
plan to build an extension. "We will
merely consider the matter at our
meeting,' be said, "as we do not feel
that we are in position yet to take
no the question and settle it for a
month or two"

Last Years Grades Reestabltshed.
New Plan for Smutty Wheat.

Last Years Grades Reestablished.
New Plan for Smutty Wheat.
Tacoma, Sept. 26.-At the annual
meeting of the state grain commission
grades of last year were re-esta blished
without change. The greater portion
of the session was spent in discussing
the utility of adopting dockage sys-
tenn to govern the amount of dockage
in smutty and foul wehat and oats at
inspection points of the state.
The system is in vogue in many OF
the wheat growing states of the East,
but for various reasons the commission
decided not to adopt it this year. The
strongest reason is method OF dock
ing that the grain buyers of Eastern
Washington have independently adopt
ed since the new season opened. With
this every farmers wheat, wheo bro't
to market, is sampled and the amount
of smut and foulness determined by
sewing, the owner of the grain being
present to witness the work. This is
running along so satisfactorily, both
to farmers and to grain buyers, that
the commission determined to allow
it to operate for year.

INTERNATIONAL INCIDENT.
Massachusetts Justice Seri-
OuSIy Exceeds His
Authority.

Pittsfeldd, Mass, Sept. 27.-Hugh
Gerney, third secretary of the British
embassy, was yesterday fined in the
police court tLee on two charges.
For contempt of court he was fined
$25. A similar fine was imposed in a
case charging him with speeding bis
automobile in Stockbridge Sunday
Mr.. Gerney, when arraigned, positive.
ly refused to plead, claiming that as
he was third secretary to his Britain
MIC majesty" he could not under inter.
nationallaw be arrested or held for any
crime.
Special Justice Phelps said he did
not recognize international law in his
court, and infored the defendant that
he must enter plea.
Mr.. Gerney persisted in his refusal.
Then fine was imposed for contempt
of court.
Mr.. Gerney did not have with him
sucfiient money to pay the fine, and he
was committed to the charge of the
ocffier who made the arrest. The off
Ger accompanied Mr.. Gerney to Lenox,
where the money was paid.

THE LAW INaTHE CASE.

Foreign representatives Not Amen
able te State or NatiODaILaws.
Washington, Sept 27.-Notice of
the action of a special justice at Lee,
Mass, in fining Hugh Gerney, third
secretary of the British embassy, was
received at the state department in a
telegram from Mr.. Raikes, first secre-
tary of the embassy, who is at Lenox.
The department Immediately trans
mitted this telegram in substance to
the governor Of Massachusetts, with
the request that he do whatever might
be necessary to secure the diplomatic
immunity Of Mr.. Gerney.
1t is believed at the department that
the matter may be far more serious
than the Dcal officers at Lee seem to
regard it. In the first place, by con-
stitutional and statutory laws, the per-
sons attached to an embassy are ex-
pressly relieved from any legal re-
sponsibility, and the exemption even
extends to domestic servants. Section
4O63 Revised Statutes, declares that
any writ prosecuted in any court of
the United States or of state, or by
any judge or justice. intended to cause
the arrest and imprisonment of any
public minister or his servant shall be
void. The succeeding section provides
that every person by whom any such
process is obtained or prosecuted,
whether as party or attorney, and ev-
cry officer concerned In its execution
shall be deemed violator of the law
OF nations and disturber of the public
repose, and shall be imprisoned for
not more than three years and fined at
the discretion of the COURT
It will remain for The governor of
Massachusetts to take initial action in
this case, which will require prompt
redress.
The last important precedent occurr-
ed in 1892 at the picnic resort of Bay
Ridge, near Baltimore, when DR..
George, an attache of the Swiss lega-
ton in Washington, was arrested by a
deputy sheriff on the charge of being a
pickpocket, and was searched and 9TH
erwise treated in a humiliating manner
by the local authorities. The state de.
partment secured his release at an early
moment, through the governor of
Mary land, who also caused the dis
missal of the offending deputy and ex-
tended an apology for the incident.
Though the Swiss minister might
have pressed further punishment he
accepted what had been done as suffi-
cient, but the matter was deemed of
such Importance that he could not
give this notice to our government un-
til the Swiss federal council had for
mally considered the case and express
ed itself satisfied.

BIG GUNS USELESS
ALtxIErF REPORTS DESPERATE SIT.
UATION.
Ammunition at Port Arthur Low
and Heavy Guns Becoming In
effective Due to Wearing OF
RifIinq-BIOCkade of JapS I'D
mitted to Be Effective.

St. Petersburg, Sept. 29.-Practical
admission tina tPort Arthur is in des-
perate straits is made in a dispatch re-
cived by the war office from Viceroy
Alexieff, who says that the supply CT
ammunition Is lunning short, and that
the heavy guns are becoming inefect-
i've, due to the wearing of their rii1ng.
Viceroy Alexief admits that Admi-
raj Togo's blockade is effective, and
this, of course, means that the de-
pleted supply of ammunition cannot be
repIenished. Viceroy Alexieff states
that the supply of food is still large.
C.efoo, Sept. 29.-The news re-
ceived from Port Arthur continues to
show steady, if slow, advance of the
japanese upon the Russian fortified
lions. Day by day the remoter posi-
lions of the beleaguered fortress are
taken by the Japanese, one by one, and
that the fall is only matter Of time
a short time now, is the general belief
here.
The number of Chinese refugees ar
irving here increases constantly, and
this is taken to bode no good for the
Russians. The Chinese here point to
the simile of rats scurrying from the
sinking ship.
The last batcch of these Chinese
who have arrived from Port Arthur
report still frther advance by the
Japanese. According to these latest
reports, several of the most important
positions held by the Russians farthest
from tho central fortress have been
taken by the japanese, the latter in
flicting considerable loss upon the
Russians.
The japanese had tunneled ap-
proaches to these positions, and finally,
with the help of mines, made their way
within the forticfations. The Rus
slams were taken by surprise, and were
able to offer only Ineffective resistance.
The Russians at last finding that they
were unable to hold their own against
the Japanese attacking force, retreat
ed, leaving their dead and wounded be-
hind them.
When the japanese attack was dis
cerned from the other Russian fortress,
the fire from the latter was directed
against the Japanese assaulting party,
and at last accounts this was still be-
ing maintained. 1t is considered
doubtful whether the japanese will be
able to retain possession of their newly
acquired position.
The greater portion Of the Japanese
fleet has returned to the japanese base,
in the Elliot islands, the Japanese COM
mander having become convinced that
the Russian vessels within the harbor
of Port Arthur are almost incapable
of further resistance and of making
any sortie into the open sea. The jap
anese have succeeded in almost wholly
cutting off the water supply of Port
Arthur, and this, Of course, would
make it impossible for the warships to
steam out to sea.
