the Character to resist the numerous

Mr.. Palmer's undoing.
Now that the treaty OF Portsmouth

played during the early stages Of the

much to do with preserving intact
the administrative entity OF China
and safeguarding her interests in the
settlement just reached between the
belligerents. While it is true that
the term administrative entity,
which was coined by Secretary Hay,
Is not used in the new treaty, it is "a
fact that the principle expounded by

STATE OR CORPORAT|ON|
Which Has Prior Right in
Selecting Land.
IDAHO BRINGING TEST CASE
Versus Northern Pacific Rail-
road Company.

| Whether the states Of North Da
kota, South Dakota, Montana, Idab,
and Washington, by the terms O
their admission to the union, have
prior rights over individuals and cor
porations in the selection Of land,
within their respective domains
granted by the federal government
for the lnalntaincnce Of the various
educational institutions OF the states
Is the Interesting question that has
been put up to the Commissioner OF
the general land Office at Washington.
Idaho has taken the initiative in
bringing this test case, which Is OF so
much concern for the states interest
ed. Assistant Attorney General Ed
win A. Snow, OF Idaho, completed
the wo.k OF drawing up the necessary
papers and perfcct,ng the evidence in
the case for the appeal OF the state
rights question from the Occur d.
Alene land otIice to the commissioner
OF the general land office at the
National capitol.
The case, which Is to be made a
test. Is that OF the State Of Idaho
against the Northern Pacific Railway
company, and involves the right to
tracts Of the finest white pine timber
in northern idaho worth millions in
the aggregate. a,
Under the provisions of the admis-
sion act OF congress, Idaho was grant
ed large tracts Of unsurveyed land for
the support OF its educational insti-
tutions. The land was not at that
time definitely granted to the state,
but the state was gwen the right to
select such lands from the public do
main.
Since then the Northern Pacific Rail.
way company. by the, REIMBURSEMENT
Of considerable tracts Of land In re-
serves, has acquired good deal Of
land scrip, and the company has been
placing this scrip on, the valuable
white pine lands OF northern Idaho.
The scrip in the possession Of the
company was secured largely through
the surrender of lands previously TAX.
en- by the corporation in Montana.
The question nov Is whether the
state or the Northern Pacific Rail.
way company has the prior right IN
the selection Of the lands. The Ida.
no authorities take the ground that
according to the terms Of the states
admission to the Union the state has
the first right. On the other hand,
the con ntention OF the railway conf
pany is its rights In the matter In
volved are prior to those Of the state
the company having already filed or
the lands in question. .
Mr.. Snow, who has sole charge o
the prosecution Of the case for th'
state OF Idaho, Is hopeful Of a de
cision by the authorities at Washing
ton favorable to the state. Such ;
decision would at the same tim
prove immensely valuable to Wash
ington and Montana.

WANTS SUIT
FOR RENTS
ENJ0|NED

Justice George T. Brown Of the supe-
rior court today heard the petition Of
the complainant in the suit Of Philias Be
MOTT Of Central Falls against j. W. McCril-
lis ct al to enjoin the ~ Yosecution Of
a suit for rent and secure the specific per-
formance of a contract or the return Of
a large sum OF money. According TO
complainants bill he purchased of Nc
Crillis in 1895 house and adjoining land
at PSI Illinois street, Central Fans. under
an agreement that he was TO have a
deed from McCrillis when payments
amounted to $3.50.
Complainant declares he is not very
familiar with the English language and
there was dispute about the charging
OF interest on arrears in case OF sick
ness or misfortune, both the latter hav-
ing been met with by Mr. Benoit.
The purchase price. II is claimed, was
Sl45O. and Mr. Benoit insists he paid
-MecHiilis 1867 SO aud-that when he
asked McCrills for a deed he was told
he was better without one" After as
certaining that McCillis' wife owned the
property Benoit declares he asked her
twice for a deed and rendered her money
but she refused TO give the deed. though
the first time she was approa ched in the
matter she declared her willingness TO
give the deed.
There was a trespass and ejectment
suit brought by McCrills. and Benoit
said ne did not dispute certain facts he
cause his lawyer at the time said the
case was easy for Benoit on law points
Benoit had decision entered against him.
Mrs McCrilis has sued for rent, claim
ing Benoit is now and always has been
simply a tenant OF hers. Benoit still seeks
the deed.
Today II ]. Carroll the present cour-
sci OF Benoit. said there was a doubt as
10 the validity OF Mrs. McCrllis title
as she purchased at mortgagees sale and
the sale was stated I'm the deed to have
been advertised an the Central Falls Visit
tor, a paper that had ceased publication
two years before the mortgages sale
4 man aau,ed Kelly originally owned the
property.
John y. Reagan. counsel for tho re-
spondcnts claimed there was no equity
or merit on Mr. Beuoits suit lie de-
clared Mrs NcCrillis had TO pay taxes,
that Bonoit had broken all agreements
that ne had not applied the rcut of one
tenement as no should have done towards
reducing MS indebtedness and that the
reason no facts were Controvortcd in the
tTcspass and ejectmcnt suit was 4 con-
trovcrsv would have been fruitess.
Judge Brown continued the hearing to

LOSS BY
FLOOD IS
$5oo,000

Bridgeport, Conn. July 3-Estimates
today OF the property loss due to the
flood caused by the bursting of reservoir
dam after Saturdays heavy rain Indicate
that the total will approach half mill
lion dollars. City property alone suf-
fered probably to the extent OF 100000
and large manufacturing plants any many
stores were heavy losers also. Four OF
the city bridges over the Pequonnock
river were damaged the abutments OF
one. the Congress street bridge being
carried away and the bridge put entirely
out OF commission.
Much injury was done also to streets.
especially in the hilly sections. where the
force of the flood tore up the macadam
surface and left it in ridges at the foot
OF the hills.
The plant OF the Union Metallic Car
fridge company will renNsin closed for at
least three days, throwing 100 hands into
idleness.
The rush OF water submerged the power
plant Of the cartridge company. making il
impossible to operate the factory, and
all the stores OF the company kept in
the Easements OF the factory building
were udHldktu Dy water. III lS estimated
that the total damage here, including loss
of time. will exceed $4,000
In similar way the plant of the Amer
lean Graphophone company, employing
1900 hands were crippled but the officials
expected to be able to resume operation
this noon.
According TO the record kept by the
Bridgeport Hydraulic company. the total
rainfall in the ten hours preceding midi
night Saturday was 11.36 inches. The COM
pany anticipates no shortage in water
supply due TO the draining of the ponds
by the bursting Of the dams a the heavy
rainfall filled other ponds sufficiently TO
meet all present needs. Plans for rebuild
ing the broken dams were made by the
Hydraulic company today.
Beardsley Park which is on the east
bank OF the Paper mill reservoir, was
damaged 20 the extent OF $4,000. Where
the pond was there is now only a waste
of mud with little stream in its centre
and boys have gathered up hundreds OF
fish that were left when the water went
out.
