coRNELL nACoALAUREATE.
Bishop Lawrence IN His sermon Refers to
nnOa eNelt and HuKhes.

ITHACA, June 16.-Bishop Lawrence OF
Massachusetts, in his bHocalaureate SER
mon to the graduating class OF Cornell
University to-day cited President Roosevelt
and Gov. Hughes as men who had made
their way through the force Of their own
character, belief in self and their own
purpose. rather than as a result OF con-
ditions surrounding them. Taking for
his text the words from Exodus, TAKE
the rod that thou hast in thy hand and
thou shalt do signs with it," he spoke OF
the great crisis in th 3 life OF Moses. h
brought out three characteristics which
are essential to great leaders. beliet IN
oneself and charac ter, the capacity TO
wait and abide ones time, and the Wiling
ness to yield oneself to a cause.
Admitting that co nditions might have
some influence, he declared that 1t was
what n man was that counted most. Look
at the men who are me et prominent in your
minds as examples OF h Ugh minded and good
citizenship. 1t has bGen said that a man
born with a silver spooTt in his mouth and OF
the Four Hundred could never get an Office
from the people. Yet Theodore Roo5e-
welt was born with the spoon and from
the Four Hundred, ard in spite OF these
conditions he entered the party caucus,
IIlp party vi kdll11llOh INV hhupO no 49,
and did his great work. The first citizen
of this Commonwealth gained his place
not through pull OF material things, but
through his own character and integrity
of mind. Never let the material spirit
Cypress you. but move.on with what you
have in hand.
Bishop Lawrence made a strong plea
against the spirit Of unrest and Impotence
with social conditions. He said that many
people wished to have social conditions
settled in a generation. Yet in the past
fifty years the development Of power has
revolutionized industry and there is no
panacea, no legislative cure. 1t will all
come in time. Do the work in whatever
calling you may go into through public
opinion, through the courts and through
education. God will work out the sal
walton in the social problem. There are
many people who are 80 restless that they
seem to forget that God has something
to do. Stand still and let God work a
little while.

RAILROAD COT MINERAL LAND.
Millions Involved In u. 3. Suit Planned
Against Southern PACING.

DENVER, June 1e.-The methods by which
the Southern Pacific Railroad came into
possession Of between 50 900 900 and S.
900, 900 worth Of mineral lands are ROW being
investigated by the Government. It is
charged that by means Of the old Central
Pacific land grant the railroad has title to
large tracts in Nevada which include numcr-
Gus and valuable mines in actual operation.
Ii is also alleged that much Of the property
which IL lie said has been illegally acquired
has been purchased from the railroad COM
pany by its employees.
Under the terms OF the Central Pacific
land grant former Land Commissioner
Mills OF the Southern Pacific took certain
lands in Humboldt county, New, making
oath, as required, that theywere non-mineral.
A short time ago a mining man Of Union
willie, New. who was looking over the land
Office record in Winnemucca, saw that the
lands which had been thus acquired by the
railroad compan included large tracts
which for thirty years have been mined
prohtably. One mine in particular, 1t is
said, is a heavy producer, $500, 900 having
been offered for It not long ago.
The property Of more than forty mining
companies and several small prospectors
had thus been transferred to the owner
ship ~ the Southern Pacific. The Govern
ment will sue for cancellation OF the rail-
roads patents.

WHEN CROKERS HORSE WON.
Mob Hurrahed. NObS sulked Norman n.
Mack's Thoughts on Politics.

Norman F. Mack, New York's rcpresen-
tative on the Democratic national COM
mittee. returned yesterday from a four
months vacation in Europe. Mr.. Mack
said that Mr.. Croker was living the ideal
life of an Irish-American gentleman in his
country place near Dublin and was entirely
satisfied with himself. He said to Mr.. Mack
of the report that he would enter Par lta-
ment:
Il will never give up my American olti-
aenship. am and shall always be an Amed-
can. The Premiership OF England would
not tempt me to renounce my country
Mr.. Mack was at the Derby when the
Croker horse won. The Americans and
the plain people in the field greeted the
victory vociferously, but there was abso-
lutte silence and gloom on the grand stand.
All or nearly all the British papers either
knocked" the winner or gave grudging
praise. Mr.. Croker himself did not seem
10 care much for the praise or blame. He
did not say much about American poll
tics except that he expected TO come back
In time to vote for Bryan for President.
Mr.. Mack said that his impression
was that Mr.. Roosevelt would be nomi-
mated against his will by the Republicans
in the Republican party. Bryan would be
the logical candidate against Roosevelt
and II the Hearst forces were faithful to
the Democracy Bryan would be elected.
Next to Bryan. Mr.. Mack said, HearSt I'M
doubtedly was the strongest power in Demo-
cratic politics. With divided forces the
Democratic candidate would be defeated.

been a little labor trouble and one or tNo
small strikes lately at Aliens Cement Com

was hit in the head with a brick, giving
him a bad scalp wound, but he managed
to hold the crowd of until others came to
his aid and the assailants ran away. Supt.

into the Office. but after a time revived
He is badly cut and bruised and would
probably nave been killed by the men. The

Policeman Morris. attached to the East
Twenty-second street station, saw smoke
issuing from the basement OF 604 East Six
tenth street late last night and breaking
open the door, found a lighted lamp on top
of a stove in which a lot Of wood had been
freshly lighted, The policeman succeeded
in extinguishing both the lamp and the
stove fire. Then he made an investigation.
The basement is occupied by Michael
Degelio, a wood and coal merchant. Police
man Morris found Degelio in his home at
COS East Sixteenth street. Degelio adj
mitted that he alone had keys to the place
and that he had locked the door When
asked why he had placed the lighted lamp
on the stove the Italian made out that he
couldn't understand what Morris was
talking about.
Degelio was taken to the station house
and locked up charged with being a sus-
picious person. The fire marshal's office
was notified. Degelio's wood and coal
cellar is under a five story tenement in
which twenty families live. The occupants
of the building became greatly excited
and the policeman thought Degelio would
be safer in a cell than in his own home,

In the stock Yards After All.

CHICAGO. June l6.-Peace in the threaten
ing strike situation at the stock yards was
all but assured last night when the packing
house teamsters voted to accept arbitration
OF their wage demands, A proposal that
the dispute should take this course was
made earlier in the day by all the big pack
ing firms.
The men insist upon arbitrating the ques-
ton Of an increase in wages or nothing,
II the packers wish to arbitrate the present
wage scale the drivers will refuse and the
situation again will become critical.
This is not thought likely, however,
and it was the opinion Of union leaders
after a big meeting last night that the
danger point had been passed, 1t is be-
lieved the two sides will agree on some
plan Of settling their dispute which will be
satisfactory to both.
