COMPANY LOSES SUIT.
Not Permitted to Exhume Body OF
PollcyhoIder. H..

Topeka, Kan, Aug. Judge
Smith Mcpherson of the United States
district court has denied the applica-
ton Of the Mutual Life Insurance COM
pany of New York for an order to ex-
hume the body of the late Lucius H.
Perkins of Lawrence, Kan. Perkins
died in June last after fall from the
top of his residence. In December,
1906, Perkins had taken out a policy
for 100000 In the Mutual Life Insur-
ance company. After his death this
company refused to pay his heirs the
amount of the policy and asked the
court for an order to exhume the body
and to allow an analysis to be made
indicating that deceased had died from
poisoning. The heirs of Perkins filed
a demurrer to the bill of complaint.
The insurance company Is also or
dered to pay the costs of the suit.
Mr.. Perkins at the time of his death
held policies In various companies ag-
gregating 100000. Several of these
companies have already paid up the
face value Of these policies.

ASHES AS EEEI-

In treating Of the recent sensational
accounts of magic combinations of
fluids and coal ashes. which purport
to be more effective as heat produc-
ers than ordinary coal writer in the
Western Electrician points out what
he regards as the fallacy of the prop
osition- He says that whatever fuel
value the ashes may have resides in
the unburned coal that they contain.
He explains that the unburned residue
gives forth its heat units under the
more perfect combustion effected by
its association with certain chemicals.
notably a mixture of oxalic acid and
water 1t would thus appear that the
Altoona cobbler has stumbled upon a
process Of more perfect combustion
which vas well known to the scien-
lists; but it is not explained why these
same scientists have not made a prac-
teal application of the principle.

TELEGRAPHER'S
STRIKE MAY BE
PREVENTED

WASHINGTON, June 1S.-Com-
missioner Charles p Neill of the bu-
reau of labor last night refused to
state whether he had received from
President Roosevelt the various ap-
peals for executive intervention to
prevent the threatened telegraphers'
strike. In reply to the direct ques-
ton as to whether the president has
requested him to consider the vari-
Gus appeals, with the view of taking
some action looking to satisfactory
adjustment of the threatened strike,
The commissioner said:
Just at this time | must refuse to
make any statement for publication
or to answer questions as to what ac-
ton the government may takee to
avert the impending strike"
Earlier in the day Commissioner
Neill said that although he had not
been informed of the presidents in
tention to intrust to him the respon-
sibility of passing upon these ap-
peals, he was prepared to assume the
duty to the best of his ability. 1t
is believed here that the appeals were
last night received from Oyster Bay,
and that Mr.. Neill will at once begin
an investigation of existing condi-
lions.
Commissioner Neill, it is under
stood, will, at the presidents sugges-
ton, leave for New York this morn
ing to begin an investigation of the
subject.

dress written by Lady Aberdeen, ex-
pressing the sympathy of five million
women of twenty-five countries of
the movement to relieve the world
of the burdens and horrors of war
The delegates to the council held
meeting tonight at Scheviningen at
which addresses were made by Mrs.
Henry Willard of Boston, and Baron
ess Zetner. The proposition to COM
promise the differences between
Great Britain and America and the
continental powers on the subject of
immunity of private property on the
seas is being canvassed. 1t is pro-
posed to treat private property at
sea in the same manner as private
property on land; in other words to
make ships captured subject to use
by the enemy, but forbidding their
destruction and requiring their res
toration with indemnity at the close
of the war. Such compromise, 1t
is said, would be satisfactory to
America and the continental pow
ers and at the same time would pre-
serve the main contention of Great
Britain for the right to destroy the
enemy'S communication.
