 Was Murdered.

New York, October 9.-Albert J. Adams, the former policy king who was found dead in his apartments at the Hotel An sonia on October 1, committed suicide A verdict to this effect was returned by coroners jury today after brief session, which opened with every promise of de velopment of a series of startling sensa- tion, which, if realized, might have made the Adams case one of the great murder mysteries
 The sensation was sprung by Coroner Hamburger under whose direction the in- quest was held in his opening address to the jurors The coroner declared it to be his belief that Adams had been murdered, and he added that the man who he be- Ieved to be the murderer would appear before the jury as a prominent witness. This statement followed closely upon scene in the coroners office in which MT. Hamburger and w. F.. D. Stokes pro- prietor of the Hotel Ansonia. engaged in a sharp discussion which was ended quickly when friends of the two men in- terfered.
 When MT. Stokes appeared before the coroner's jury he was attended by former Judge William M. Olcott as personal coun- sell At the conclusion of the examina- ton of witnesses, who included hotel em- ployes, members of Mir.

Issues Statement to Funston.

Havana, October Civilian H. Taft, as provisional governor of Cuba and Secre- tary of war of the United States. issued a statement today to General Frederick Funston outlining the duties of the American forces in Cuba.
 The officers of marines stationed in the various localities are advised that they are not expected to take part in an active way in the suppression of dis order unless extreme emergency arises in which it is absolutely necessary for them to protect life and property. The duties of the maines are generally limit ed to rendering their good offices be- tween the conflicting elements, and the prevention of a friction which as in the high state of tension between the polti- cal parties is inevitable during the present crisis.
 The order says it is expected that the presence of the marines from the United States will create such a sense of security that the rural guards and the police will be able to suppress any disorder which manifesrs itself. The order concludes as follows:-
 ''The President of the United States deems it of the utmost import that the American forces do not engage in con ficts with Cubans, but that disorders by Cubans be suppressed by Cubans It is also expected that the officers and men both of the army and the marine corps will exert every effort to show all courte- sies possible to Cubans of all parties. and avoid in any way injuring their sensi- bilities'
 The order makes 1t plain that the ma rines will remain in the island for the present as an adjunct to the infantry.
 Governor Taft said today that practi- cally all the American warships now in Cuban waters soon would be withdrawn.

Ownership of Horses.

A decree deciding the vexed question whether the late Cuban rebels have right full title to the horses in their possession at the time the rebel forces were dis missd and disbanded. was made public by Governor Taft tonight It is ordered that In every action where the plaintiff by proper evidence and Identification proves his title it shall nevertheless be sufficient defense if the possessor of the horse by lawful evidence shall establish that he was a member of the late forces in the insurrection. and had possession of the horse on October 1. and that he received a certificate from his brigade commander turning over the animal to his custody. In such cases horses are to be treated as having been appropriated to govern mental use for the purpose of securing peace and the owner shall be entitled to just compensation from the provisional government for the reasonable value of the horses of which he was deprived. 1t is provided, however, that no member of the insurrectionary forces may claim more than one horse. Nothing in the order shall be construed as determining the rights of owners of horses and other property taken by insurrectionary forces which said owners are unable to identify. The matter of Identification by the gov ernment of such horses and other prop- erty is reserved for future decision.

FEMININE DAIRY WISDOM.

When milk is allowed TO become our
Il is a waste. The sugar turns TO acid
and thus lessons the feeding value.
Calves should have the milk warm
from the separator. and h pigs should
have their share sweet and in the same
way.
The noon feeding should be warmed
to the same degree. The milk should
not be held over, but fed h same day.
Never allow the milk TO sour in the
swill barrel.
Never allow a little milk to remain
in the barrel from day TO day until 1t
is rank with p~utrefaction.
1t is not too late to put in a big patch
of sweet corr to cut up for the cows.
Do not let the cows dry up on ac-
OF short pasture.
The fresh, full June pasture will not
last into July n August, so be sure
and be ready when the pinch comes.
We have all the trouble with cows
whether they pay a profit or not.
Don't lose the profit on account OF
d little shortage of feed, when so much
of il car be grown with so little work
and cost.
See that the water supply is pure
and abundant. With a shortage in the
water supply there will be disappoin-
ment IN the results of h dairy. Don't
forget this!
When cows are sailed only once a
week they eat too much at a time, and
it causes looseness of the bowels. They
will eat a little salt nearly every day

especially when the grass is fresh and
abundant.
II any cows that are large mixers
are about to calve, keep them in from
the pasture and feed hay for a time,
so that the udders will not become too
much distended.
In some cases it is well to draw some
of the milk to relieve the pain.
