Storing Seed Corn.

Do not put immature or freshly
gathered seed corn in warm room
on the floor in piles; it will either
sprout or mould. The corn should
be hung up and the windows left
open for a good circulation of air.
1t should be properly taken care of
as soon as harvested. Do not store it
over the laundry room or stable, as
it will gather moisture and be injured
by freezing during the winter.
The most critical time for seed
corn is during the first month after
it is harvested. While it is green and
sappy there is danger that it will grow
or mold if the room is warm or the
circulation of air is not, good On

ADMITS OFFICERS FAULT.
President Of N. Y. Central Blames
Himself and Others for Wreck.

Himself and OtnerS TOT WRECK.
NEW YORK, March IA new and re-
markable aspect was given yesterday to the
coroner's investigation of the disastrous
wreck on the Harlem division of the New
York Central railroad February 16. in which
twenty-three persons lost their lives and
more than one hundred were injured Presi-
dent William H. Newman of the railroad
appeared as a witness, bringing with him
all the principal officers Of the company
who were in any way concerned in the con-
struction and operation of the line where
the wreck occurred.
Mr.. Newman told the coroner that he de-
sired to make clear to the jury upon whom
the responsibility for the condition of the
track and the operation of trains rested.
Among those responsible he named nlmseir
as president Of the company.
At the previous session OF the jury AS
sistant District Attorney Smyth announced
that he would ask the jury to find the rail-
way company and Vice President William
7. Wilgus guilty of criminal negligence. 1t
was to hear Mr.. Wilgus testimony that the
inquest reconvened today. President New
man was permitted to take the stand first,
however and was questioned as to respon-
sibility for trains and track and schedule.
He replied that he not only held Mr.. VIII
gus department responsible for the acci-
dent but several other departments as Well.
He said that Mr.. Wilgus was first respon-
sible as q member of the commission which
was appointed after the tunnel accident,
which resulted in the substitution OF cleo
tricity for steam, but that he was indiv I'd
ually responsible as the officer In charge
of the construction department.
He said that Third Vice President Smith,
In charge of the department OF mainte-
nance of way. was also respohsep,e, anu
sibility as president. In charge of all de-
partments.

To Cure Drug Habit.

The recent publication in Consular and
Trade Reports of an account from the China
Telegraph of the discovery Of an indigenous
plant in the Malay peninsula. which had
successfully cured many Chinese of the
opium habit, caused numerous American
inquiries for further Information about this
plant. The following article in the London
Times from Edward Morell Holmes, cura-
tor Of the Pharmaceutical Society Of Great
Britain, will, therefore. be of interest:
Hitherto the name of the plant used as q
cure for the opium habit in the Straits Set
Elements does not appear to have been
made known. Specimens of the plant in
flower and fruit have been presented to the
museum Of this society by L. Wray, cura-
gentleman. who is careful botanist. has
identified the plant as Combretum sundai-
cum, MIGUEL. 1t accords well with MiquePs
description, and there can be no doubt that
climber, with opposite leaves, in size and
shape somewhat resembling that of the
pear tree, and bears globular clusters of
small white flowers arranged in panicles.
about an inch long, furnished with four
longitudinal wings
The plant is abundant on the plains
around Kuala Lumpur. in Salangore. Malay
peninsula. The properties Of the Combre-
taceae. the natural order to which it be-
longs, are very little known; some are used
In malarial fevers. two are known to pos
sess vermifuge properties. and one is used
for poisoning bats. AS soon as a larger
quantity of the plant arrives the leaves will
be subjected to chemical analysis and physi-
illogical investigation, and its actual value
or otherwise determined. Meanwhile q few
preliminary tests applied in the research
laboratory Of the Pharmaceutical Society to
the small quantity of the leaves available
indicate only the presence of an astringent
principle, and a coloring matter which do
not afford definite proof of the presence
of any alkaloid or glucoside although the
leaves appear to contain some substance as
yet unknown to chemists.

parent, and the committee on appropria-
tons, after having carefully considered the
Keep commission report, evolved this plan
whereby, If 1t were adopted by Congress
now. the classification would be ixed-that
is. there would be four main classes each
class subdivided into four different grades.
Then when the estimates are submitted to
Congress at the next session for the clerical
service In the various departments here in
Washington. the estimates would follow this
classification thus fixed. and Congress would
then fix the compensation for each class.
1t was believed by the committee that the
necessity for this was so urgent that the
matter ought to be submitted to Congress
for its consideration, and for that reason
the committee authorized the gentleman in
charge of the bill to report this amend
ment."
Representative Mann made no explanation
of his action in making the point of order.
AS will be seen by a glance at the tables,
the Reconsideration increases the maximum
clerical salary from S1.s0O to 81, 100 and
makes such grades as would prevent clerks
doing identical work and receiving two
grades of pay.
