Oyster Bay, y. Y, July 30.-Secre-
tary Wilson Of the department of agri-
culture, is expected at Sycamore Hill,
tomorrow His visit will enable him to
discuss with the President the situa-
ton in the department as it relates to
the Investigations now in progress. All
rumors Of the intention of Sec. Wilson
to resign may be put aside as merely
conjectual. The secretary has no
present intention of leaving the cabi-
net and the President knows OF no
reason why he should resign.
The President. 1t may be said. re-
poses implicit confidence in Sec. Will
son and is thoroughly satisfied that ne
will solve the difficulties now present
ed to the entire satisfaction OF the
Chief Executive and of the country. IL
is prabable that Sec. Wilson would
come to Oyster Bay before had II not
been for the unsettled condition III ms
department, which rendered it pracu-
cally impossible for him to leave WASH
ington. He is pressing every phase OF
the Investigations now in progress ana
will develop every fact which the
country ought to know.
That the President is confident the
secretary will purge the department or
a scandal that may attach to II Is e'-
idenced by the fact that he has not IN
tcrfered with the pending investiSa-
lions. All matter brought to his atten-
tion has been turned over to Sec. VIII
son with instructions to inquire into
them, This the secretary has done ana
his work has the approval of the Pres
ident.
It is the determination of both the
President and Sec. Wilson to clear the
department of every from of "grafter.
To this end, the likelihood is that
every bureau Of the department WIZ
be inquired into carefully with a view
TO ascertaining whether any such cor
dition exists as was developed in til :
bureau Of statistics. Quietly but cf-
fectively, Sec. Wilson has been work.
ing to this end for many months. Many
employees Of the department have been
dropped from the rolls, practically
without the knowledge of the general
public. Some have been dismissed out
right. while others have been permitted
to resign. Assurance is given that no
etone will be left unturned to eliminate
every faint Of scandal OH the depart
ment of agriculture.
The President, accompanied by Mrs
Roosevelt and several of their children
offended the morning service at Christ
Episcopal church. today. No ofiicia
visitors were received by the President
The calls made by neigh5Oring rela-
tives and friends were entirely infor-
NAL.

BEGINS WESTERN UNION FIGHT.
Pennsylvania Railroad Threatens to
Remove Its Poles and Wires.

Indianapolis, July 3o.--Thc trouble
between the Western C:ion Telegraph
Company and the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company. which resulted in the
tearing down Of the company's wires in
Pennsylvania, is about TO be trans
fcrred to this State through a COM
plant filed in the Federal Court by the
telegraph company today. The COM
plant sets out that the railroad COM
IaIy has informed it to vacate its right
Of way under threats Of having its
POLES and wires forciby removed. am!
thus SeyeIinS its connection with other
points. This notice was civ on i'll Janu-
airy. and it was demanded that the
poles and wires be removed from the
right of way before February ].
The complainant alleged further that
It believed the railroad, as it did not
reed the ground occupied by the telc-
graph line, was simply trying to get
the telegraph line off the right of way
so that it might give to some other
telegraph company tho right to it's use
1t sets out also that if tho complainant
should be driven from the right of way
and another company should be given
use of it, much time would elaps,. be-
forc the new company would be in 4
condition to carry on its business. and
that therefore the public and the Gov
cThment, which use III" telegraph lin.
would he seriously inconvcnienccd.
II IS thought this marks the begin
ninE Of fight TO drivr the Western
ii"n Telegraph Company from the
right OF way "f all the PENNSYLVANIA
lines west of PittsburS.

The Mosquito Suspected.

The following contribution to these
columns by Miss Julia Eckford, of
this city, discloses that the so-called
recent discovery that malarial dis
eases are directly attributed to the
bite of the mosquito, was suspected
or known To the Chinese fourteen
centuries ago. Thus it appears that
the mosquito theory is not of such re-
cent origin as the discoveries would
have the scientific world think; but,
like most other discoveries, has evolv
ed from ideas entertained by people
who lived ages ago:
''Sir Henry Blake, governor of Hong
Kong, reports curious discovery of
two ancient Sanscrit books belonging
to the sixth century. Among other
topics they discussed the cause of ma
laria and give, among other causes,
the bite of the mosquito.
Thus the most recent of modern
discoveries had been anticipated by
Orientals fourteen hundred years ago

School Appropriations.

The appropriations made to the
various districts Of the county for
providing comfortable schoolhouses
and cquipping them, aggregate more
than -, 600, a. will be- seen by ref
crcnce To the proceedings of the
Board of Supervisors published in
this issue More than $4,000 of
OF this amount goes towards the
providence Of buildings at Wren,
Hatlcy, ~toncwall and Hamilton,
ut each of which places district
high school has been established
having prescribed high school
course, in charge of competent
teachers.
The time has come in the history
OF education in the country, when
the people exact higher course of
study for their children, and wish
these advantages 10 be nearer them
than the cities and towns, where
the expense of living is high and
temptation turks on every corner.
Many of these people are unable to
send their children from home to
these town schools, and many 9TH
crs are unwilling To hazard them
from under the parental influence.
The school authorities are making
the right move Ia build up high
school interests in the country, and
the liberal support given 10y the
communities in which these high
schools were established, show that
the psoplc are in line with them.
