Messrs. Cochran and Vickery to Ap-
pear in Burton's Second Trial

Purchasing Agent Cochran of the Post
Office Department. and Chief Post Office
Inspector Vickery have been subpoenaed to
appear before the federal court at St Louis
to testify at the second trial of Senator
Burton of Kansas. Mr.. Burton is under
Indictment by the federal grand jury,
charged with entering into agreement
with the Rialto Grain and Securities Com
pany to practice for a fee before the gov
ernment departments at Washington.
Another witness will be Post Office In
spector Fulton at st. Louis. The case will
be called within few days before Justice
Adams and Messrs. Cochran and Vickery
are preparing to go west at once.
Senator Burton tried several months
ago and was found guilty and sentenced
20 serve five months in Jail and to pay a
fine of 81 800 The case appealed to
the Supreme Court and decision rendered
that because the alleged practice before the
departments was in Washington and the
alleged payment of the fee was made here.
the checks being cashed in the Riggs Ma
tional Bank of this city, the case should
have been tried here, the crime, If any,
was committed in this Jurisdiction.
The second Indictment was based upon
the ground that one of the checks of the
fee said 10 have been paid to Senator
Burton was cashed in St. Louis. The tes-
timony presented at the former trial will
be placed before the jury at the second
hearing.

STUDYING CANAL PROBLEMS.
Return of Nearly all the Consulting
Engineers.

The members of the consulting board of
engineers of the Panama canal have nearly
all returned to Washington from New York
and are engaged in an individual study of
the question of the character of dams best
suited. both in respect to climate and
streams for the isthmus. This work Is to
continue until Friday, when the board will
meet and the papers which have been pre-
pared by it's members will be submitted and
discussed. 1t is not expected that con-
clusion will be reached on this subject until
after the board has visited the isthmus and
made an inspection of the various sites.
For the present work the dam sites located
on the official maps of the commission are
accepted the basis.
When President Roosevelt received the
members of the board of consulting engi-
neers of the isthmian canal Monday at Oys-
ter Bay he addressed to them a few re-
marks which will be printed shortly and
presented to the different members.
After bidding them welcome he urged
them to use all the speed they could safely
make in coming to d conclusion as to what
will be the type and best way to dig the
canal, so that he might have ample time of
studying the report before he would send 1t
to Congress.
He did not express himself in favor of
either lock canal or a sea level canal, and
refrained from any technical observations,
but urged the members to state their Opin-
ion without the slightest hesitation and to
send him reports, not as he should like to
get them but as he ought to get them.

break on the Island of Savaii In German

Dense volumes of smoke and ashes are
being thrown UP at intervals and the ra-
vines and dry water courses are being
filled. The greatest activity is at the bot
tom of large gully. Showers of heated
white dust are descending for several miles
around the place. This dust when cooled
forms into a black pumice. AT one place
there is large mound of this substance
about 800 feet high. The natives who re-
side along the coast are quiet and fear no
danger
The seismograph erected near Apia by
the German government showed indications
of approaching disturbances during the

to the government on July % that a seismic
outbreak might be expected. The same In

GROSS FABRICATION
ALLEGED INTERVIEW WITH THE
PRESIDENT.

OYSTER BAY. l.. l.. September b
President Roosevelt has denounced as
fabrication and as wholly without founda-
ton in truth the report of an interview
with him regarding the terms of peace be-
tween Russia and Japan, published In the
Petit Parisen of Paris and ca5led to Amer
lea and published here this morning.
AS soon as the purported interview was
called to his attention the President di-
rected Secretary Loeb to send to the cor
respondent of the Petit Parisien who was
received at Sycamore Hill the following
telegram:
OYSTER BAY, N. Y. September H. 1900.
Castor Richard Hotel Lafayette, New
York N. Y:
",The President directs me to say to you
that the alleged interview with him pub
lshed In this mornings papers Is not only
an absolute fabrication, wholly without
basis of truth, but that your conduct IN
obtaining permission to see him under false
pretenses Is thoroughly dishonorable. When
you came to see the President you informed
him that you were the grandson of Marshal
Augereau; that you had been at the battle
of Mukden with the Russian army ana
with the Japanese army afterward that
you understood thoroughly that you could
have no interview of any kind and that
you simply wished to pay respect to him.
Under these circumstances the President
received you and listened to your account
of your experiences with the Japanese and
Russians. and spoke to you also of the
deeds of Marshal Augereau and of Napo-
Icons other generals.
The President had no conversation with
you about the terms of peace. and your ac-
count of your alleged interview with him Is
a fabrication from beginning to end, with
out any foundation. in fact: and both your
untruthfulness and your obtaining permis-
sion to see him under false pretenses the
President considers highly dishonorable.

ney Sterling completed his arguments in
behalf of Captain Taggart in the Taggart
divorce case today. He made an eloquent
plea in connection with the disposition Of
the Taggart children, and brought tears to
the eyes of nearly every one in the court
room, including Judge Eason. Both Cap
tain and Mrs. Taggart were visibly affected.
Sterling advocated that the children be
given either to Captain Taggart or to his
parents in Orrville, and that Mrs. Taggart
be permitted to visit them whenever she
wished

SOUTHERN TIMBER INDUSTRY.
Indications That the Resources Will
Be Scientifically Exploited.

A striking economic change, far more
striking, indeed, than is generally appreci-
ated. according to a report to the bureau
southern states into redoubed Industrial
prominence within the space of the past
few years, and in none of the many busi-
ness activities which this change has af-
fected are it's results more sharply accen-
tuated than in the lumber industry and
those manufactures which depend for their
raw material upon the products of the for
est. Almost concident with this develop
ment of the forest resources of the south,
a development which gives the southern
states first place among the timber -produc-
ing regions, has come the demand for a
wise system of forest management. This
demand has been felt in the call which has
been made on the forest service for Coop
Grafton.
Since the opening Of 1905 many applica-
tionS have been made to the service for
working plans, to be made under the CO.
operative plan, which has proved sue
cessful in a large number of cases, the area
of forest to be embraced being approx
mately 100000 acres in the states of Ala
bama, Florida. Georgia, Louisiana, Missis-
sppi and Missouri. During the coming win
ter preliminary examinations of these tim
Der tracts will be made, and In all proba-
bility large proportion will be favorably
reported on, and, in due course, will be
placed under conservative management
While there is still time to avoid the mis-
takes and losses which eXtravagant forest
utilization has caused elsewhere in the
United States, the south seems resolved to
exploit Its vast timber resources in a man
ner which will bring credit to It's business
men and preserve its leading industry on
a permanent basis.
