In Jail For Debt to State.

BURLINGTON, N. j., April 24.-Gordon
Phillips, crippled negro, because he owes
and is unable to pay Burlington county ii for
poll tax and Sl.75 for costs, was arrested Au'
gust 25 last and has ever since been held a
prisoner in the county Jail.
Phillips arrest and detention was made
under the provision of Section 700 of the Re
vsed Statutes of New Jersey. Under that
law the tax delinquent will have to remain III
ail until his tax is paid. This, together with
the fact that the aged negro has not the ~. 10
necessary to obtain his released and has no nc
opportunity to earn any money while in jail,
will necessarily result in his Imprisonment Tor
life unless some charitabIy inclined person
comes to his rescue.
That Phillips Imprisonment has not served
as warning to others is shown by the fact
that there has not been any exciting rush III
the county to pay poll tax.
Phillips is said to be a hard working, peace
able man when at liberty. He makes living
by reseatug broken chairs.

Won't Answer President.

Boise, IDAHO, April 25.-Moyer, Haywood
and Pettibone, the accused Western FEEDER
alton men, decline to talk of the Presidents
latest letter declaring them to be undesirable
citizens" on advice of counsel. The at
torneys declare they cannot, in the interests
of their clients, permit them to become further
involved with the President of the United
States and his friends in newspaper contro-
versy.
Already. counsel declare, has their case
suffered from too much agitation, aud they
will not, either for themselves or their clients.
or allow the latter TO do so, make any state
ment regarding the Presidents utterances.
The case Of w. D. Yost, charged with
contempt of court for an alleged effort to in
fluence juror on the regular panel which
will probably try W. D. Haywood for alleged
completely in the assassination of former Gov
ernor Steunenberg, was dismissed today by
Judge Wood in the District Court.
The court held that the affidavit of Juror
Wagner, upon which Yost was called into
court was insufficient. Yost was Immediately
rearrested, however, at the suggestion OF the
court under the Idaho statute making attempt
to influence juror felony. He will have
a preliminary hearing tomorrow afternoon.

President Roosevelt to the Rescue
Again.

President Roosevelt has been asked to
settle the Central American difficulty.
Senior Corea, the Nicaraguan Minister,
called at the State Department or IMleIday
last with orders from his government that
the President of ne United States either
adjudlcate tne matter or appoint commits
sion 20 do it. At any rate, it was left for
? this Government to 6xup the whole thing
The trouble is that Nicaragua wants
Salvador to pay liberal portion Of the ex-
penses of the war the former has waged SO
successfully against Honduras. Salvador
replied that it was not her affair, where
upon Zelaya stated in emphatic terms that
inasmuch as Salvador came to the aid of
Honduras it made the fighting more ex-
pensive for him, and Salvador, by so lend
ing hand, made herself responsible with
Honduras. Honduras was badly defeated,
her President being deposed and a new
government friendly to Zelaya installed.
Zelaya does not see how he can recover
through that country, SO he leaves it to
Salvador.
The State Department officials are con-
sidering the affair. 1t looks as if the
United States Government is the only
power capable of undertaking such task.

Big Blaze in Frederick.

FREDERICK, Nd, April 2O.-Fire which
broke out this morning shortly before o'clock
on the second floor of Frederick Obenderfer'
furniture establishment, the origin of which
is supposed to have been incendiary, caused
estimated losses to six firms on East Patrick
street totaling $50, 300, large portion OF
which is not covered by insurance. There
are also items ofloss not included in this total,
the losers not yet having estimated the
amounts.
Obenderfer's building and its contents were
destroyed. The flames spread to the adjoin
ing building, owned and occupied by Nathan
iel j. Wilson & Son, stove dealers, which was
partially destroyed. The large wholesale
house belonging to William c. and P. 81. C.
Birely, and occupied by Harris & Filler,
wholesale grocers, and A. L. Landauer,
wholesale notions; the warehouse of Mrs. T.
T. Herspberger, occupied by F. Schroeder,
grocer; the dwelling of Mrs. Sarah Galt, a
dwelling belonging to G.. C. Carly and the
residence and butcher shop of Christopher
Woerner caught fire, but the flames were ex.
'tinguished after slight damage had been in
ficted upon them. The coal Office of Jacob
M. Newman & Son, on the ground floor of
the Obenderfer Building, was destroyed.

Dear husband, oh how hard it was to give him up
Days of love forever ended,

Yet again we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life is fed,
There in heaven with joy to greet thee,
Where no farewell tear is shed.

Locomotive and Barn Race.

LEXINGTON, KY, April 24.-Engineer Scan
non of Chesapeake and Ohio freight train
was the hero yesterday of a thrilling race be-
tween train and barn, with several lives
at stake.
Scannon's train was passing Tebbs Station,
near here. at good rate, when the high wind
which was blowing lifted big tobacco barn
from its foundation and started it rolling down
hill toward the railroad, half mile away.
Scannon saw the danger and Immediately
threw the throttle wide open in an effort to
outrun the barn.
The heavy train was on the down grade and
soon attained great momentum, but just as il
looked as though the peril would be outrun
the big barn crashed into the caboose, smash
ing it. The impact also shattered the barn,
which collapsed on the track.
Trainmen on the caboose saw the danger IN

His Daughter Drugged.


LYNCHBURG, Va, April 28.-Former Judge
W. G. Loving, who late yesterday shot and
killed Theodore Estes at Oak Ridge, the
country estate of Thomas F. Ryan, 80 miles
north of this city, was today admitted to bail
in the sum of $1,000. The bail was allowed
by Bail Commissioner Paine, of Amherst
county, county adjoining Nelson, the scene
of the crime. The Nelson Commissioner did
notact, on account of his relationship to Judge
Loving.
Judge Loving charges Estes with drugging
his daughter, Elizabeth, aged 10 years, and
criminally assaulting her while she was in that
