ANOTHER TRUCE.
Hill and Hartman Said to Have
Agreed Again.

Hill and Hartman Said to Have
Agreed Again.
New York. Nov. 27.-The Tribune
today will say:
The Hartman and Hill railroad in
terests, it was learned Monday from
sources which should be informed on
the subject, have arrived at an agree
ment which win insure harmony be-
tween them in the future. Announce
ment of this agreement, which is said
to be the result of work BY ]. p.
Morgan, is expected to be made with
in the next week or two. The report
of the committee Of the Union Pacific
directors having charge Of the task
of framing a plan for the segregation
of that company's assets represented
by it's stockholdings in other roads, is
expected to be presented at about the
same time, and it is not unlikely that
the two announcements may be re-
lated.
The rivalry between HillMorgan
and Hartman parties reached its Gull
mintion in the Northern Pacific cor
ner' which resulted in the panic of
May 9, 1901, but it existed before that
memorable date and has existed since
then.
Whether or not the peace now re-
ported as having been arranged will
include acquisition of a block of Union
Pacific stock by Mr.. Morgan and his
associates, cannot yet be learned.

NORTHERN VOLCANOES ARE
EVIDENTLY IN ERUPTION

Nome, Alaska, Dec. Nome, and
probably the entire Seward peninsula,
is shrouded in an ashy haze, and the
ground for miles is covered several
inches deep with a fine, gritty pow
der which is believed to be. volcanic
ash. The storm began several days
ago, the dust blowing in from the
ocean, but at first little attention was
paid to the freak of nature, as it was
expected that it would soon cease.
Instead, however, the fall continued,
and after a day became so dense as
to seriously interfere with out-of-door
pursuits. Miners coming into town re-
ported that for miles the snow was so
impregnated with the ashes that sled
ding was almost impossible. Further,
the air is so full of ashes that breath
ing is difficult, and the fine powder
has sifted into houses and business
places to such an extent that it is
thick on floors, goods and household
furniture.
It is believed that some one of the
numerous volcanic islands, either be-
tween this coast and Siberia, or, more
probably, those islands in the Alaska
peninsula or the Aleutian islands, are
again in eruption, and that the ashy
downpour is the result.
No serious results are anticipated
but much inconvenience is being
caused by the peculiar storm.

KANSAS CITY TO CUT
OUT SUNDAY ADJUSTMENTS

Kansas City, Nov. 30 Judge Smith
Mcpherson, of Red Oak. Iowa, IN the
United States circuit court here, has
handed down decision dissolving the
injunctions recently granted to local
theatrical managers, prohibiting coun-
ty officials from closing theaters on
Sundays. Judge Mcpherson asserts
that he has no jurisdiction.
The decision is far-reaching one,
in that it practically seals the fate OF
all Sunday amusements in Kansas
City.
Judge Wallace, of the criminal
court, who has fought for close OBJ
servance of the Sabbath, is now free
to order the county marshals to raid
the theaters on Sunday. County Mar
shall Heslip asserts that he will only
arrest theater managers who have
been indicted by the grand jury,
which is now in session.

STUDENT RIGHT TO VOTE.
Attorney General Renders Opinion in
the Matter,

Nsso'HSy SSuStas nSuOSso OPsHou ~
! the Matter.
Olympia, Nov. 27.-The right of a
student to vote at Pullman is the
subject of an opinion rendered by the
attorney general, in which he says
the fact that one is. student in a
university or college does not of itself
entitle him to vote where the uni
versity is situated, nor does it prevent
his voting there. He resides where he
has his established homo, the place
where he is habitually present, and to
which, when he departs, he intends to
return. The fact that he may, at a
future time, intend to remove will not
necessarily defeat his residence before
he actually does so remove. 1t is not
necessary that he should have the in
tention of always remaining, but there
must co-exist the fact and the inten-
ton of making it his present abiding
place, with no definite plans as to any
other particular future residence upon
graduation.
AS to what facts are sufficient to
show the intention of any particular
student to vote in a town in which
he is attending school, is a matter to
be determined in the first instance
by the inspector and judges at the
election.

SAYS ROOSEVELT Will
not Be A CANDIDATE

Chicago, Nov. 30.-David Starr JOr-
dan, president of Stanford University
and lifelong. friend of President
Roosevelt, declared at the Auditorium
hotel, that Roosevelt will not be a
candidate for renomination.
"Of course, no one can speak Of
ficially for the president" said Jor-
dan, "but I have known him ever
since we were boys, and I have no
hesitation in saying absolutely and as
emphatically as possible that he will
not again be candidate.
Il myself should look upon his re-
nomination with deep regret, although
his candidacy would be undeniably
popular in California. The president
is conscientious, an able man, thor
oughly familiar with public issues,
and no interests would be jeopar-
died by his acceptance of a third
term. But, on the other hand, Amer
lean policies do not rely for their ex-
ecution upon any one man. Washing
ton felt this and was satisfied with
eight years."

Dry Farming Turkeys in Idaho Proves
Profitable.


Payette, Idaho, Nov. 30.-Turkeys
raised on a dry farm, herded like
sheep in the hills where they fed on
grasshoppers and sagebrush, and
banded together at night without shell
ter the same as a herder punches his
sheep, is the successful manner in
which A. M. Howard raised 600 birds
on his ranch a few miles up the Pay
cite river this year. He realized over
81, 900 from them.
Mr.. Howard left Payette for Seattle
with 500 turkeys, the fowls making
a car load. He drove them from his
ranch to New Plymouth, where he
loaded them into car. He had been
offered 20 cents pound for the fowls
in Seattle, but he declined the offer,
as he expected to get higher price
on the open market.
A few Of the gobblers were dressed.
They weighed 80 pounds and Mr..
Howard said the entire lot would av-
erage 20 pounds apiece.
