FOR LOSS OF HIS WHISPERS
New Orleans Lawyer Waited Too Long
to Get Action for Damages.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington.-E. A. O'Sullivan. a Now
Orleans lawyer. wanted to sue Paul
Felix and William w. Stiles for $780,
600. because they cut off his whiskers
in 1908, in an election prank, but the
Supreme Court decided he had waited
too long, and threw out his case.
The O'Sullivan case has a cause
celebre" in New Orleans and Jeffer-
son parishes, because Mr.. O'SIllivan,
at one time city attorney of New Or
leans, having changed his residence to
Kenner, Jefferson parish, essayed to
figure prominently in opposition to
the regular parish forces at election
times. Mr.. O'Sullivan had a splendid
set of side whiskers, after a pattern
that had nearly become obsolete, and
Paul Felix and William Stiles, chief
among his political enemies. plotted
against the wellbeing of the extra.
ordinary hirsute adornment. When
Mr.. O'Sullivan went to the polls he
was attacked, and a pair of shears re-
duced the whiskers to an uneven and
Jagged two weeks growth of beard"

MERCHANTS APPROVE REPEAL
New York Chamber Of Commerce Sup
ports the Presidents Policy.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington.-Support for the pro
posed repeal of the Panama tolls ex-
emptions was given before the Sen.
ate Canals Committee by representa-
tiyes of the New York Chamber OF
Commerce, who said their organization
had approved repeal by an overwhelm
ing majority.
Edward E. Page, member OF the
chamber, as we'll as of the New York
Merchants Association, declared ma
tional honor and character are bust
ness assets to a nation and that Ameri
can industries in future would largely
be dependent upon exports. Business
men could do little if the nation did
not keep its contracts. he added.
Eugene H. Outerbridge, an importer
and exporter, said opinion of business
men with whom he had talked is
against exemption of American vessels
from tolls. He expressed the opinion
that the effect on the canal transcon-
tinental railroads will be decisive.
A telegram approving President VIII.
sons course on the tolls question sign
ed by Richard Olney. attorney general
in President Cleveland's cabinet, and
other Massachusetts citizens, was read
by Senator Simmons.

Wireless in Practical Use.

Washington.-Never was there il
more vivid illustration of the march
of scientific invention as applied to
warfare than the facility with which
the ranking admirals and captains
plotting out the strategy of possible
war, were able to keep in touch with
the developments at every point where
an American ship is lying. Some OF
the men engaged in this task had
fresh in mind the painful experiences
of the old Naval Strategy Board which
in the spring of 1898 was despairfngly
trying to get in touch with Sampson
and Schley. commanding the two
fleets, which, excepting Dewey's Phil
ippine squadron, represented all OF the
American naval strength of that day

ARKANSAS HAS 1000 MEN
Force Available in the Event Call Is
Made for Volunteers.

Little Rock.-Arkansas would be in
q position to offer 1000 or more mer
for volunteer service in the event
there should be such call. This estl-
mate of the volunteer strength Of the
state was made in press dispatches
from Washington and comedies with
the estimate of Adjutant General Lloyd
England.
The Arkansas National Guards have
an enlisted strength of 1,500 men Gp
portioned among the "a companies
forming the tive regiments. The state
militia organizations are not subject
to any duty which removes them from
the state in which they are organized,
but of course are looked upon as a re-
serve force which could be dependei
upon to enter regular service as vel.
unteers.
The present strength, per company.
in the Arkansas Guard is "a men.
The maximum company strength is
los men, which would be asked of vol
unteer companies. Thus "a compa-
nies would have strength of about
5000 men. That Arkansas easily
could furnish a third regiment is the
estimate not only of General England.
but also of others conversant with con.
ditions in the state. This would raise
the total to 1000 or more men.

Big SLUMP IN THE
MO. PACIFIC STOCK
DECLINE INVOLVED DIFFICULTY
IN PLACING A $25,
NOTE ISSUE.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
New York.-Missouri Pacific stock
slumped more than 1-2 points in Wall
street under heavy offerings. The de-
cline was associated with the difficult
ties in arranging for the s25,O00,000
) per cent note issue, which natures
June /.
1t developed that certain negotia.
tions have been broken off.
The activity of the issue and its
failure to retain any material recovery
indicates that liquidation by inside
interests rather than bear attack was
responsible for the selling.
The stock touched the lowest point
since 1897, when receivership predic,
tions were current in Wall street.
More than $1,000 shares changed
hands.

time the per cent notes, fere Of

New York.-Answering messages of

the United States, President Huerta of
Mexico has sent out the following:
Mexico City.-As reply to your

government of the republic are entire
ly baseless, as the broad investigation
now in progress will make clear in
this connection. Regarding the ap.
proach of the American fleet to Mexi

AGAINST NEGROES
-ORTY-TWO OUT OF FlFTY-FlVe
SUBSTITUTE NEW ORLEANS
CARRIERS ARE COLORED.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Washington.-A stinging protest was
made To the Post Office Department
by Representatives EstOpinal and Du-
pre- against the appointment by POST
master leonhardt of negroes to be
substitute letter carriers at New Or
leans. They made it to First AS
sistant Postmaster General Roper.
The charges are that there have
been an unusually large number of sub
stftute carriers appointed lately, there
being no fewer than - on the sub
stitnte list. Forty-two of them are
negroes. In the last 90 appointments,
% have been negroes and only seven
White men. II is further charged
that of the seven white men offered
appointments. four have asked to have
their appointments held up for no rea-
son other than that they object TO be-
ing put down to the level of the ne
groes.
The congressman especially objected
because letter carriers are the link
that connects the Federal government
with the people who pay the cost OF
maintaining the government; that
these carriers come into direct contact
with the householders, and especially
the women, and for that reason they
are especially obnoxious in the posi-
tions to which Postmaster Leonhardt
has appointed them.
The observation is made that it
seems strange that during a Demo
cra,ic administration such an over
whelming preference should be shown
for negroes. The congressman do not
like the tendency shown by such ap-
pointments and they desired to go on
| record as opposed to any such politi.
cal recognition of the negro race.
The probabilities are that this spro-
test will be referred to the inspectors
now investigating the New Orleans of
flee, for a report on the subject.
