ONCE WEALTHY, NOW POOR.
Too Much Racing Sends Man to the
 Poor House.

New York. December 2S.-Stewart Hyde, once wealthy, Is an inmate of the Hampstead poor farm on Long Island in ten years Hyde has squandered s150, 900, and after an unsuccessful at- tempt to make living as a stable boy around the race tracks he was forced to ask admission to the poor farm. Fourteen years ago, Hydes father died and left him $100,000. Other relatives left and gave him another $150.0o0. He spent his money like water and lost fortune in the attempt to keep win mig stable of trotting horses. When by far the greater part of his money was gone he tried to recoup his losses by betting on the races, only to see every thing disappear. Finally he was re- duced to seeking work as stable boy. While employed at the race track last summer a valuable race horse disap- peared and was tracked to Brooklyn where Hyde had sold it for small sum.
 He was never prosecuted. for the own- CT of the horse had been a friend of IIydes father. Now broken in health, as well as pocket, he sought rest at the poor farm

SENTENCE
 MUST BE SERVED
Greene and GaynOr's Last
 Chance Has Failed
SUPREME COURT DECIDES
Two Celebrated Prisoners Have Now No Recourse and Must Soon Begin Term of Four Years in the
 Penitentiary.

Washington. December 23-The supreme court of the United States today denied the petition for writs of ceritoran bring ing 10 that court the cases of Benjamin D. Greene and John F. Gaynor, who are under sentence to pay a fine of $575, 743 and to undergo terms of imprisonment of fours years each on the charges of em- hezzlement and conspiracy in connection with Capt Oberlin M. Carter to defraud the United States in connection with harbor improvements at Savannah, Ga.
 Carter has served a term of imprison- ment on these charges.
 Greene and Gaynor were tried by the United States district court for the Southern District of Georgia, and on April F, -9O6, were found guilty on the two charges of conspiracy and embezzlement and both were sentenced on the same day the amount of the fine imposed rep resenting the sum which is charged to have been appropriated. They appealed the case to the United States court of ap- peals for the Fifth circuit and when that court affirmed the verdict of the trial court they presented their petition to the supreme court for q wirt of certiorari bringing the entire case to that court for review.
 The petition went at length into the question of the extradition from Canada and urged the fact that because the case involved the relations of this nation to foreign nations the supreme court was bound under the federal constitution to take cognizance of the matter, not withstanding tine case had been passed upon by the court of appeals.
 Many important questions were present. ed by the case in accordance with the eXtradition. including the one as to whether 8 person charged with embez- element in one state (New YorB) can be legally tried in another state, as Greene and Gaynor were and also the question whether man charged with an offense Tn two districts, as Greene and Gaynor were, can be regarded as fugitiyes from justice when he remains in one of them.
 The point was also raised that the cases were barred by the statutes of limitation. As" said their brief, the three years limit of limitation applies to the crime charged, it is evident that since July 1907, three years having elapsed the bar of statutes had inter- vened. unless the defendants came within the exception to 1t as persons fleeing from justice.'
 The effect of the denial of the peti- tion for review by the supreme court has the effect of leaving in force the decision of the district court.
 The courts decision was announced by Chief Justice Fuller and there was no written opinion.

Must Serve Sentence.

Macon, Ga., December 23.-"Abso lutely no step in law remains by which we can save Greene and Gaynor from their pen sentence" said MT. W. w. Osborne today. upon being advised of the decision of the supreme court of the United States denying their cer- tiorari.
 When the telegrams from their at- torneys in Washington were received by Messrs Greene and Gaynor the only remark was made by Captain Gaynor, who said that 1t looked as though he would not eat Christmas dinner in Ma con.
 Asked to break their long silence, they declined saying that they would make statement later.
 During the stay of these famous pri. oners In the Macon jail the libertirs allowed for the benefit of their health have been magnifed into almost abso lute freedom.
 It is not considered probable that they will be removed from Macon until after the holidays. Usually it would be 10 days in cases of this kind> but Dis trict Attorney Erwin, who Is in Wash : ington, it is said, may return any day with the proper papers that will cause their removal to the federal prison at Atlanta.

SHEET STORM IN CHICAGO.
Wires Are Down in All Directions and
 Wind Is High.

Chicago, December 23.-A severe sleet storm which set in last night, has badly demoralized telegraphic communication in all directions. Early today it was im- possible to reach St. Louis from Chicago save by way of Omaha and Kansas City
 Peoria and Bloomington, H., were both out of the world, so far as reaching them by wire was concerned. All wires to the north were working badly and to the east it was exceedingly hard to make wire work from Chicago to New York, most of them being cut and the matter relayed at Pittsburg. In the vicinity of Evans vile and between Lbat place and Indian apolis, over whiclS1place the storm was centered at o'clock a. m.. telegraphic communication was almost at a stand still. The storm was accompanied by high winds which added to the difficulty.

HEARST MAKES EXTRACTION.
Lewis stuyvesant Chanler Is Cleared
 of All Charges.

New York, December 23.-The publica- ton today of a retraction of statements made in the New York American and Evening Journal in October connecting William Astor Chanler, brother of Lieu tenant Governor Lewis s. Chanler, with the case of Raymond Hitchcock, it is stated, may result in the abandonment of the criminal libel proceedings instituted by MT. Chanler against w. R. Hearst. The matter is now pending before the grand jury, MT. Hearst being held for the action of that body, after a prelimi- nary hearing before Justice Wyatt.
 While I have not consulted Mir. Chan Ter about the matter" said Sidney B. Harrison, personal attorney for MT. Chanler today, the retraction is so thorough and so complete vindication of my client l do not believe MT. Chanler will feel it necessary to further press the proceedings against Mir. Hearst. The ac- Acknowledgement of error and the personal Negret expressed by MT. Hearst in to- days retraction were such as to leave little to be gained by urging the mat ter before the grand jury, and personally I do Not believe the grand jury will now be asked toindict.''

q Replying to many inquiries res

ature and snowfall during the month
of January, 1907, submit herewith a
tabulated statement covering Il a
period Of thirty-three years at Bis

will be readily seen that temperature
and snowfall considered, there has
been but one instance in which the
temperature was lower and a greater
amount of snow fell in January that
of 1875. In other words, with but one
exception, the past month was the
|severest in the history Of the weather
bureau in Bismarck Many wrong
impressions are prevalent as to the
climate Of North Dakota, the weather
of January, 1907, having been used as
q criterion. | trust that the attached
statement will demonstrate that such
weather is the exception, and not the
