ONE UIUION ACRES OF LAND
Urasted to Reek of the Western States
to Be Redeemed by lrri
gation.
WAss.lorox, Aug. 27.-A review of
the work accomplished by congroes at
the session which will close today and
which is of interest to the west Is the
cession to each of the arid land states
and states which may be formed from
territories of 1,000,000 acres each of des
ert lands for reclamation, a plan which
is Intended to advance the movement fur
irrigation in the west, and partilly to
take the place of the project for irri
gating by thegeneral government, which
has been advocated by the western
members.
An act was passed extending from
four to live years the limit of time with
in which final proof may be made by
settlers who have declared their ,inten
tion of taking up desert lands. Another
law in the interest of western settlere
was one enabling those who desired to
locate on other than mineral lands to se
cure a survey by depositing with the
government a sum sufficient to cover the
cost of the survey. Affidavits in
land entry cases may be made before
the United States commissioner in
stead of the United Staten cir
cuit court commissioner, as provided
by law. Other legislation of importance
relating to public lands inculde an act
to enable the state of Montana to select
as a part of the land granted to her in
becoming a state any of the lands in the
Bitter Root valley, above the Lo Lo fork
of the Bitter Root river; an act extend
toing the time of payment to purchasers
of the lands of the Omaha tribe of In
dians in Nebraska to Dec. 1, 1897; an
act authorising the secretary of the in
terior to lease for periods of ten years
twenty-acre tracts in the Yellowstone
park for hotel purposes. and an act for
the resurvey of Grant and Hooker coun
ties in Nebraska. Two more important
investigations desired by the house com
mittee on labor have been authorized'
One is for an investigation into the
effects of machinery on labor, with ref
erence to its productive power and its
effects upon wages, hours of work and
emplopment of women and children and
the conditions under whi,'h they work.
Both inquiries will be conducted by the
commissioner of labor.

WARsumoTox, Aug. 28.-Preparations
for the grand parade of the uniform
rank engrossed the attention of the
Pythians today. Many thousands of
visitors were attracted to the tented

of the supreme lodge was called to order
at 10 o'clock. Groat secrecy was ob
served. The roll call was answered by
nearly every state and territory in the

edlv the Worst ef the Hard
Times Rate.
Cuioaou, Aug. 28.-At the investiga
tion of the Pullman strike by the nation
al commissIoners today Vice President
Wickes of the Pullman company, took
the stand. lie said the cost to the com
pany of building care under contract at
the time of the strike, was about $1,400,
000. Labor would cost $240,000. The
contracts were taken on the basls of a
reduction of 20 per cent. Thus, under
the old prices, the labor would cost
about 1340,000. Wickes admitted that
on this basis the company had reduced
receipts $32,000 and its employee wages
$00,000. This, the vice president said,
looked hardly fair, but he thought it
much better than to throw the men
entirely out of employmoentr In answer
to the chairman, Wlckes said the cut in
pay had been made to fit the present de
pression in business, and the low selling
price of care, and not to stop any en
croachment of the profits paid the stock
holders. The surplus of $25,000,000 un
divided profits consisted partly of idle
cars whose value was constantly depre
ciating. The cost of the care was count
ed in the surplus. so there was to some
extent a fiction of figures in the surplus.

man. lie was particular to state that
he was not employed by the Pullman
company, as the bank was owned by the
Pullman Southern Car company, but
later admitted the latter company is con
trolled by the Palace Car company.
Bryant said the capital stock of the
bank is $100,000. In July, 1893, the de
posits amounted to about $658,000, of
the depositors 2,125 were Pullman em
ployee, their accounts averaging $240. in
July, 1894, the deposits amounted to
$453,000, with only 1,414 employee' ac
counts, which averaged 1270. Witness
said the Pullman workmen were paid in
checks. Each month they were given
two checks, one representing the amount
of rent due and the other the balance of
wages. "It is just a sort of a gentle re

which Pullman offered him $105,000 and
a now York company 880,000 and a roy
alty. The company will be managed on
the cooperative plan, each workman to
receive a share of the profits, though the
capitalists are guaranteed six per cent
on their investment before the laborer
comes in for his share. The company
has control of five patents and will man

1lOCIIESTrIl, N. Y., Aug. 28.-If Ed
ward Folsom, aged '2, under arrest at
Hammondeport, is as black a villian as
he is painted, he is easily the worst out
law that ever lived. It is charged that
Folsom within the past two weeks
planned three murders, tried to rob a
bank three different times, passed half
a dozen forged notes, attempted to
wreck a train, flrod ileven buildings,
eloped with the prettiest girl in the vil
lage and when arrested twice attempted
suicide. HIi companions obtained money
for him on forged notes. One was re
fused payment and he plotted to kill the
bank cashier. The scheme fell through,
as the "pal" engaged for the
deed lost his nerve. On Friday last
he placed an iron rail on the Bath &
Ilammondeport track, but the obstruc
tion was seen in time. Over thirty tires
have occurred in Hlammondaport with
in the last two months. On Monday
last five houses, four barns and a grist
mill were destroyed. When the officers
appeared at Folsonu's house last night,
the young man grabbed a butcher knifo
and tried to cut bis own throat. He
then dashed to the street and threw
himself in a near.by pond. fie was
nearly drowned. Folsom's wife is the
seventeen -year-old daughter of the
wealthiest man in the village. The cer
emony was performed by a minister
that had previously been adjudged in
sane.

IN ADMINISTEHING THE UWS
Over All Persos. Foreign as Well

Borders.
WAenleoToN, Aug. 28.-Japan has at
last succeeded in an object very dear to
her people, and for which her govern.
ment has striven with all the arts of
diplomacy for years. News has been
received by the diplomatic corps here
that a new treaty has just been
negotiated between Japan and Great
Britain by the terms of which the claim
of extra territioral jurisdiction by the
latter is abandoned. Negotiations look
ing to the ratification of similar treaties
are going on between Japan and the
United States and other European na
tions besides Great Britain, and it is
assumed that they will now speedily
follow the example set by the latter, and
fully recognize the rights of Japan to
administer justice in her own territory.
The importance of Great Britain's action
lies in the fact that it is really a re
oognition of Japan as a fully civilized
power. The assertion of extra ter
ritorial jurisdiction has always been
confined to barbarous and semi-civilized
countries, whose ignorance of the first
I principles of justice and law seemed to
render imperative the retention by
I aivilized nations of the world of the
I right to administer justice where their
i own citizens were concerned. Even as
against the natives of the semi-civilized
I country and within its borders. This
has been done through the medium of
consular courts.

VWhy the Anti Anarchist Bill Was
e Not Allowed to Get Through
d the House.
WAaIIIN,,TO., Aug `2.-Lotsaof demo
crats are interested in the gossip about
the reported combination between Vice
President Stevenson and Senator IIllL
According to the little that has leaked
out about this combination it was
opened for a double purpose. First,
to prevent the re-nomination of Mr.
Cleveland in lie;, and second. to make
Stevenson or Hill the nominee of the
democrats each agreeing to throw his in
iluence to the one that shall develop the
greatest strength previous to the hold
ing of the convention. This week's
visit of Stevenson and Hill to the grave
of Thoee. Jefferson is regarded as the lay
ing of the wires to get control of the
democratic machinery in Virginia as a
starter.
The anti-anarchist bill, preventing the
coming of alien anarchist immigrants
and for the deportation of those now in
the Unite1 btates, was unanimously
passed by the senate, and in view of the
statement made by treasury officials that
they were in posseesson of descriptions
of 5iCM dangerous anarchists who have
been driven out of France and Italy by
recent legislation against anarchists and
were headed for the United States. it
was believed that it could be easily put
through the house, but it was not put
through. Warner's objection to the bill
is that it gives the superintendent of
immigration full power to deport alien
anarchists without any action of the
courts.
