DEMAND GOVERNMENTS

revoke all the permits that had from
time to time been granted to the
Chandler-Dunbaf people, and under
which they are now proceeding to put
in extensive works in the rapids, also
that one branch Of the government
would not be standing in the light Of
aiding a litigant to hold property
the government was prosecuting suit
in ejectment. The secretary took the
matter under advisement, with the un-
derstanding that Congressman Burton is
to write him letter, giving his views
as fully as Mr.. Goulder set forth his
in his brief.
May Go to Congress.
From the secretary's attitude, 1t is
a fair Inference that he is not inclined
to revoke the permits. Should this be
his conclusion, the matter will be laid
before congress.
In the meantime $1,0OO,0O0 is lying
in the treasury ready to be expended
under authority of congress granted
last year to widen tho 500 canal above
the locks. To enable the government
to do this without condemning: the
property they claim to own, the Chan.
dler people have made a deed Of a strip
of land along the canal to the govern
ment and that deed is now in the hands
of the department Of justice for rati
fcation.
If that department. does not ratify
it until the lawsuit to oust the Chan
dler-Dunbar company is decided, the
widening Of the canal will necessarily
be held up, altho the war department,
has advertised for bids for the work
and is ready to proceed the minute the
department Of Justice passes upon the
deed. .%.. " @'@: e !:
The war department. does not think
the deed ought to cut any figure in tht
litigation against the Chandler Dun
bas company, as it is only a quitolaiu
deed and relinquishes only such right
as the company may be found to pos
sess.
AS for the department of justice, tn,
officials there show plainly that they re
gard the attitude Of the war depart
ment as hostile to what the law end O.

Chicago, June 12.-A Washington
special to the Chicago Tribune says:
Aside from the rapid development OF

politicians SO much recently as the
acute situation in Pennsylvania: There
is to be tremendous fight in that
state from now. son- and the regular re-

Last week, when the regular repub.
ican convention Z was held, #Penrose
could not resist the temptation TO run
it. He managed the thing from begin
cal brutality. Instead Of remaining in
the background ;as prudence would
have dictated, in view of the crushing
defeat administered to the machine last
fall, Penrose chose to brazen the thing
out and he crowded thru a ticket OF
his own, depending entirely upon the
fact that the platform, which Of course
means little or nothing in q state cam
paign, was personally revised for hin
by President Roosevelt. y. .
Penrose endeav ored to make it ap
pear that this platform revision by the
president amounted to presidential ap
proval Of and sympathy with the meI
who were to run on that platform. II
is an old trick to attempt to bring VI
to power the ticket nominated by bac

Deliberation.

Kansas City, June 12.-Armour & Co.,
Swift. 8 Co, Cndahy 8 Co. and the Mel

found guilty in the United States dis
trict court here this morning Of accept

The case was given to the jury at
1O:40. The verdict, was returned at

Judge Smith Mcpherson of Red Oak,

The present case bears unusual i'm
portance in the list of rebate trials to

time that any concern has been brought
to trial before jury on a charge af-

the defendants in this trial contended

which was overruled by Judge McPher-

case on trial there is no question as to
the reasonableness Of the rates nor as
to the efficiency Of the service, but the

Ghost or Illu.ionr

A minister Of the gospel, according
to this tale, was walking to and fro in
a long passage that ran through the
house and meditating upon his next
sermon. There brushed by him a
housemaid. He watched her pass and
enter his study. Fearing that she
would dIsarrange his papers, he hurried
after her, went into his study-and no
one was there. No means Of egress
was possible but by the one door
through which he had seen the girl en-
ter. He rang the bell and-the house
maid came down from the top Of the
house, where she had been performing
her duties. And the unusual part of
the story Is that nothing happened
no one sickened and died. The young
woman married happily. And yet that
minister Of the gospel is sure that he
saw that housemaid pass him. Nor to
this day does his stout and happy ma
tRon know that abe was ever In two
places at once.
