one of the engineers told him that
the grade would be one of the easiest
and best of the Southern's mouinatn
lines. THE engineer told me-" said
Mr. Sisk. that when the road was
completed a freight car could be
turned loose at Rayburn Gap and that
it would go into Knoxville by gravity
and stop in the yards at that place
of its own accord so easy is the grade
from the Gap to Knoxville, a distance
of some eighty miles. The South Car
Dina built more than forty years ago
was intended to traverse Macon Coun-
ty and go into Knoxville.

ANGLO-JAPANESE TREATY.
A New One Said to- Have Been Signed
Few Days Ago.
(Bv the Associated Press

London, August 25.-The Associat-
ed Press has good reason for stating
that new Anglo-Japanese treaty of
alliance has been signed The For
eign Office declines to give official con-
firmation or denial, but the Associated
Press understands that the treaty was
signed some days ago.
The new treaty is broader in scope
in some respects than the former
treaty, notably where it includes the
recognition by Great Britain of a Japa-
neSe protectOrate over Korea and on
other points which it was not neceS-
sary to include in the old treaty. In
some respects the new treaty contains
limitations as compared with the old
treaty. For instance, the latter con-
tanned a clause to the effect that in
case of a combination of the powers
against Great Britain, Japan would
be obliged to assist her ally, while the
clause in the new treaty only requires
the assistance of Japan so far as the
British colonies in the Far East and
the Pacific are concerned.

THE CASE AGAINST RICARDO.
That of the United States Against This
Oily Gentleman Now Doing Time
i'm Florida is ReinStated.
Especial to News and Observer

Asheville, n. c., August 26.-Upon
the recommendation of District Attor-
ney Holton, of the Western district,
Judge Boyd has issued an order re-
Installing the case OF United States
against Louis Charles DeRicardO, alias
Ernest Orvis.
Ricardo, or OrViS is now serving d
term in the Florida penitentiary, and
upon the conclusion of his sentence
he will be turned over to the Federal
authorities and brought to Ashcville.
Ricardo is charged with using the
mails for fraudulent purposes and the
trial of the defendant in ASheVille this
fall will probably result in the intro
duCtiOn of some interesting sensational
testimony.
Ricardo operated in and around
Asheville in 1900, and in 1901 the Fed
eraH court grand jury found a true
bill against him. He was gone, how
ever, and when again heard from was
doing time in Florida. He obtained
money from parties by opening a cor
reSpOndence with them and claiming
the power of Strengthening out tangled
affairs and relieving people of worry,
of making the unhappy happy, and the
miserable COntented. He also claimed
to be able to locate and secure sums
of money that had been buried. His

Subpoenas for witnesses have been
issued from the clerks office here.
The subpoenas go to Iowa, Connect
cut, Florida, Tennessee, Pennsylvania
and North Carolina. Ricardo is re-
membered here by number of peo-
pie. Postmaster Rollins said this
morning that he had seen the swindler
many times, that in appearance he
was of the Mexican type, that he
was nice looking man, well dressed
and apparently educated. He made
both Asheville and Black Mountain
headquarters and received mail at
these places.
In 1901 the authorities got wind of
RicardO'S operations and so hard was
he pressed that he found it COnVen-
lent to seek other and more cOngenial
chimes. He left this section quietly
and unpretentiously.

ing necessarily rested entirely in the
mind and in the experience of the
plaintiff. The jury had applied the
only possible test for mental and
physical suffering, and the only ques-
ton then was whether this was done
honestly by them and without cor
ruption. No charge of this kind had
been brought. Plaintiff said he was
damaged twenty thousand dollars,
and the award of four thousand is not
exorbitant, but was exceedingly mod
crate. He referred to Osborn as a
man of exceedingly tender sensibili-
ties, and that such a publication
would hurt him and nearly kill him,
when it would hardly be considered
worthy of notice by a selfish, unlova-
BILE, cold blooded, snake looded man
absorbed in himself or gain getting
alone. Such man could say with
Boutwell, in Jail:
What care / for mortal man
When no man cares for me-"
Judge Ward then said: 'If I set
this verdict aside, will the defendants
be willing to- settle for the amount
specified" Mr.. Busbee responded
that he had not had opportunity to
consult his client on this point.
The judge then said he thought the
verdict was too much and he had
made up his mind after much care
and deliberatiOn what he would do.
Brooks Speaks Strongly.
At this point Mr.. Brooks, counsel
for the News and Observer. asked to
be heard. He said the jury had given
damages for something that did not
exist. Osborn himself had testified
that he could not name single man
whose friendship he had lost. His
business had greatly increased. he had
become a wealthy man. Honors had
been heaped upon him since this pub

At Ecija the population has looted

fants and aged persons is attaining
terrific proportions and in many local
tiles the working people are living on

this is mere drop in the ocean of

shows that 100000 are out of en-
ployment.
The territory most stricken forms a
