right of appeal to the Supreme Court
1t is the belief of the governmen Of
ficials that the authority to appeal
was sought and secured not with any
idea that the case might be won in the
court of final resort. but simply to
gain delay of a year or eighteen
months.
This belief is based on the fact that
the lands involved in this case are
practically all coal and oil lands, and
every day that passes they are being
stripped of these natural resources as
fast as the coal can be mined and the
means millions Of dollars to the claim
ants. The plan to offset this move
by the possessors of the land is to
apply to the United States court ii,
Just as soon as the autumn term be-
gins. In this way the court will ex-
ercise full control over all the opera
tons and secure the benefits to the
anal successful iitigants.

is proposed to further protect them If
Congress can be prevailed upon to do
so.

DECLARES
HECAN SQUARE CIRCLE

Kansas City, August S.-Asserting
that he is able 10 square the circle
and has made other mathematical dis
coveries which will have sweeping
Influence on that science, Michael Angelo
McGinnis, who is serving a ten-year
sentence for forgery in the Missouri
penitentiary, has offered to demonstrate
lis discovery to any committee OF
mathematicians Governor Hadley may
designate If a pardon will be con-
sidered his just reward for success.
His communication was sent TO the
Governor through Dr. D.. j. Simpson, of
Clarksburg, Mo.
DR.. Simpson says the great discovery
made by McGinnis is the reduction of
the general equation of the tenth de-
gree 10 an equation one degree lower.
IcGinnis claims that for the gen
eral solution of an equation contain
ing literal coeficients there exists a
general logarithNtc. solution for its
corresponding - Numerical equation,
thus establishing a general method OF
solving numerical equations by loga-
rithms.
He says he has found the exact ratio
of the diameter of a circle to its cir
cumference. Since the time of Euclid
the ratio has been supposed TO be
3.1416 plus. NcGinnis says he knows
just what the plus" is. He says he
has discovered the exact root OF all
numbers, and that imperfect squares
will be no more.
McGinn;s says in his communication
to the Governors:
