Prof. Saville Makes Discoveries in
Ecuador.

Ecuador
New York, sept. IL. Professor N.
r. Saville of Columbia university, VINO
arrived yesterday from Colon aboard the
Panama line steamship Panama, has
been in Ecuador hunting for the rem
nants Of a civilization preceding that Of
the Aztecs. He says that he found IN
the interior Of the country az a place
that he designated somewhat dinly at
between fifty degrees n4rth of the
equator and a similar distance south of
Il and one hundred miles from the coast,
Professor Saville has written book ID
which he intimates that an ancient
civilization might be found in a certain
part Of Ecuador, and the object OF MS
trip was to prove his theory. He says
be- has done SO even beyond bis eXpecta
tions he discovered monuments cop
per relics and pottery along the coast
which showed on the part OF the max
ers high development in industrial
art. approaching that of the Aytecs
He spent nearly three months explor
ing and was surprised at the rich nature
Of his finds. some Of which he brought
with him. In a spot IN the interior
which he did not wish to specify, he
discovered the ruins OF O city that had
contained about 5000 houses built
himsly aloft to withstand the influence
Of earthquakes, which have been preva.
lent in the region for many centuries
and still make trouble for the inhabi
tants. These ruins are abandoned
From the viewpoint Of the professor
they probably existed long before the
spaniards set foot on South American
soil and despoiled the Incas It seemed
as ii the ancient people, Judging from
the pottery ard copper wrought uten-
sils the professor found were in the
transition stage Of development be-

ONE PEACH in ORCHARD GREW.
Remarkable Falling Of in Connecticut
Towns.

Hartford, Conn, Sept l2-The extent
OF the failure Of the peach crop in Con-
necticut is strilSingly indicated by the
fact that J. II. Hale Of South Glaston-
bury, commonly known as the peach
king Of New England, has found only a
single peach in his Connecticut orchards
this season. a fair crop for his orchard
is 10000 baskets. He gathered about
a quarter Of a normal yield from his
great orchard at Fort Valley Co., this
year. A few Connecticut orchards are
yielding some fruit One Of the least
affected orchards is that Of the Barnes
Brothers Of Ialesvile, who have picked
about 1000 baskets
The cause Of the failure is the extreme
cold weather Of last winter, which de.

they should be. One Of the next prob

expressed In the written enactment. In the
aseertainment OF that. will L am not at
liberty to ignore the ultimate, object Of the
law. That object was the, establishment OF
uniform. railroad ratea Q reasonable, in
amount. The former law had failed to &C.
complish this and was, therefore. strength
ened. Instead OF being wiped on the books
as having served Its purpose. additional
and severe liabilities were created and more
drastic remedies and penalties authorized.
Difference In Laws
For the ofrense with which the defendant
stands charged the preceding Elkins law
prescribed punishment only by fine The
view entertained by the present congress-
respecting this ofrense finds expression in
the provision authorizing the additional
penalty Of imprisonment in the penIten-
tiary. And the court Is asked to hold that
this same congress deliberately Intended Ia
pardon all unindicted prior offenders, whose
conduct 1t was. me e than all other causes
combined, that moved congress- to enact
the rigid and far-reaching measure of
June 20.
My opinion is that whereas at common
law the repeal OF a penal statute extin-
guished all penalties for offenses against
It's provisions in the absence OF an expres,
saving clause, under section 49, the re.
peal of a penal statute extinguishes no such
penalties In the absence OF an express ex.
tinsuishing clause. which the rate law doe.
not contain, that the so-called saving clause
in section 10 was inserted for the sole pur,
pose OF definitely prescribing the rule o,
procedure that should control the prosecu.
ton OF causes then pending in variou.
stages in the courts. thus avoiding the con.
fusion and controversy which. as experience
has shown. must otherwise have resulted
The court overruled the demurrer to eight
OF the indictments and sustained Il as "a
