The New York papers have been dis cussing the disagreement between State Chairman Corners and Will liam R. Hearst. The suggestions as to the cause of the falling out vary, from positive statement that Con- ners in order to secure the election of Mir Hearst as governor spent $6S,- GOO over and above the large amount Heart contributed and cannot now collect from the candidate who au- thorized the outlay, to the innuendo that, being no longer in fear of Hearst starting newspaper in Buf- falo and interfering with his field, Corners has thought hest to make a declaration of independence and be free to meet the new and rapidly de- veloping conditions politically ahead of him.

ON GUARD AGAINST FIRE.
New Haven Road is Eauipping Car
 With Extinguishers.

New Haven, June S.--Every pas senger, baggage, mail and express car on the New Haven road will be equipped with three gallon fire ex- tinguisher before October 1 of this year, and orders have already gone forth for their purchase.
 This step was made necessary last year when the Massachusetts legisla- ture passed an act making it obliga- tory that all train running through or in the state be so equipped.
 The New Haven road has presented to the Massachusetts commissioners the apparatus they intend to put in their cars and the officials gave their approval to the pattern.
 The extinguishers are of the ordi- nary metallic tube type. which when inverted generate gas pressure to throw considerable stream of chem ical. The extinguishers when emp tied may be refilled and recharged in a few moments. Combination cars having a passenger and either mail or express compartments will be equipped with two extinguishers, one for each section.
 The reason for equipping the trains is to prevent the frightful loss of life and the suffering often accompany ing wrecks. The purchasing depart. ment of the road is now considering the pattern and make to be used.

JIouE WOOD FOR RAILWAY TIES

Mahogany is often used for ties by
 the railroads in Cuba as we'll as in
 other Tropical countries, but Sir William Van Horne has forbidden it on his road. He considers it crime to cut small mahogany trees, anS there is plenty of other timber in
 the forests suitablef for construction purposes. Jique tpronounced hickey) acana, juearo negro, all hard woods which do not grow large and cannot be utilized for cabinet work are just as good as mahogany for ties and will outlast steel rails in this climate. because they won't rust. On the railroad between Nuevitas and Cam aguay. the oldest in Cuba. which was built in 1888. are jique ties that have been in use for fifty years in the rail- road bed. There is a tramway al Camaguey with rails of jique wood over which the cars have been run ming for more than a quarter of cen tury. and they do not show wear any more than stel after the same ser vice Much of the wood Is SO hard and heavy that 1t will sink in water.

Several points in the policy of the federal administration are calculated to arouse a bitter feeling among laboring men, says Washington writer. One of these is the virtual abrogation of alien contract labor law. Another is the republican plan, now legalized. of loantng hundreds of millions of public money to bankers without interest. a practice which amounts to subsidizing bankers. as class. at the expense of the tax-pay- CTS of the country; thus widening the gulf between the rich and the poor Still others are the administrations avowed advocacy of the ship subsidy scheme. and the hostile attitude of the republican leaders in congress towards the pilots, who have for years been struggling for existence against the assaults of the Maine ship trust; and uUdlll NuC H3slAiltg tA lNpADAANah leaders to the legislation demanded by the representatives Of orsanizei labor. Mir RoOsevelt's continued talk about class feeling" and the wicked ness of encouraging such a feeling, has greatly stimulated class feeling. He has made 1t plain that he himself experiences that feeling, for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. People talk very knowingly about what they themselves feel Men who are forever referring to h. Ioring men as the mOb.- and soreyes denouncing labor leaders" as Mir Roosevelt does. are unconsciously en- gendering a class feeling which can result only in political and industrial disturbances. If not in revolutionary outbreaks. The people are resentins if

NEW YoRK's MILK SUPPLY.
Experiments Prove that Idle Soil i
 Adapted to Dairy Farming. <.

Philadelphia, June S.-Long Islands possibilities as source of New York city's milk supply was the subject Of a lecture delivered yesterday at the an- nual meeting of the division freight agents and freight solicitors of the Pennsylvania railroad by L. P. Coleman, special agent oG the Long Island railroad. s...... ...- =.
 @On Long Island" said. Mir Cole man, "there are 100000 idle acres that can be readily cleared and used for dairy farms. Cheapness of the land. good soil for growing fodder crops, and the nearness of these lauds to the great metropolis should induce persons interested fin the establish ment of model dairy farms to flock toward Suffolk county. Long Island" Experiments in growing alfalfa, mil- let, teosinte and Virginia horse tooth corn on Long Island have proved. he said. that the soil is of the right kind to support dairies.
 "The daily consumption of milk in New York city," said MT Coleman, amounts to 1,6O0,C00 quarts. About a quarter of that is delivered in quart bottles and three-quarters in forty quart cans. Ten thousand quarts arc certified and 300 quarts are marked inspected
 This great quantity of milk comes from 5000 dairies. 40 to 4O0 miles away. The creameries number coo, and the total supply reaches New York through 10 city railroad stations. The number of cows needed to pro- duce this 100000 quarts of milk is 250,OO0.
 Mir Coleman said that two acres for raising corn and hay were allowed to each COW, if the grain were purchased. Thus 5000 acres of Long Island land, planted in fodder crops. would support 25,OOo COWS. Taking one-tenth of this area as a basis Mir Coleman said
 "Twenty-1ve hundred cows would yield 18,00o quarts of milk day That would i'll 400 forty quart cans and 200 cans is considered fair car load. At the average conservative rate of % cents per can the revenue from the trafic would thus be sS0 q day. To arive at the revenue of tbe railroads in carrying the daily milk supply into New York, multiply by [ hundred"
 The speakers sentiments are known to be shared by President Peters oi the Long Island railroad In starting the experimental farm at WadIns River Mfr Peters had in mind tho growth of fodder crops as well as of market garden precincts. The culti' vafion of fruit and vegetables tcos up all the time of the railroad rsrm. ers'' the first year. but now thsy art going to devote great attention to ths dairy end of the project
 The success with alfalfa wal very marked. on the first year plant. ing Mr Coleman said Seed was sown in June and two good cutting. were obtained before cold weather. tbe first stand being twenty-eight inrhes high- With this for encouragement, it was definitely decided to have 'a small dsIry. and the methods of sew eraI weIl-established dairy farms have been carefully studied"

FINE LEGAL POINT
Highest Court Upholds Transfer Tax
Law; Two Justices Dissent

WASHINGTON. April 15.-New
York s transfer tax law was today de-
clared constitutional by the supreme
court of the United States in the case
of Winthrop Chanler and other heirs of
the late Mrs. Laura Astor Delano VS.
Comptroller Kelsey. in which the dc.
cislon was against Mr.. Chanler.
The case arose IN connection with the
Will of Mrs. Delano, by which she de.
Fised to members Of the Astor family
about 81 100000 worth of property, left
her, by her father, William B. Astor,
under directions given by him before
his death and before the statute was
enacted. The question thus presented
was whether the transfer tax law which
imposes tax under certain conditions
is constitutional The state courts sus.
tanned 1t and the federal supreme court
upheld them IN that course
The courts opinion was handed down
by Justice Day. He found Mrs, De.
lano's will to be the eliminating act in
devising the property, and therefore
held the law to be applicable, Justice
Holmes delivered dissenting opinion
in which Justice Moody concurred.
