NEW ROUTE FOR THE CANAl
Engineer Amirt * There In a BetU-i
One Than Any Yet I'ro-
CLEVELAND , Jan. 21. John F. LeBaron
a well known civil engineer , declares , In at
interview hero , that while engaged as ar
engineer on the old Nicaragua canal hi
discovered a now route for the Intcr-oceanU
connection. "I was ono of the engineers It
charge , " said he , "and became thoroughlj
acquainted with the territory. When I dis
covered the new and more practicable route
I at once laid it before the men who wen
backing the enterprise. But they wen
pledged to put tbo canal through or
practically the route they had laid out ant
did not act on my suggestion , and further
more , did not want anything said of th <
now and shorter route.
"When congress acted on the matter am
the president designated a commission to gt
thoroughly over the ground and report ot
All feasible routes , I at once wrote the com
mission , Baying that If It uas desired :
would go to Washington and make my rout <
known. I asked for no commission noi
money , having no other Interest In thi
matter than the public Interest. The commission -
mission did not ECO fit to accept my cffcr
and therefore I have never divulged the
route. The commission has reported favora
bly on the Lull route , which I believe pre
sents obstacles that make It Impracticable. '
Mr. I.cBaron claims that the route hi
proposed Is much shorter than any othei
nnd would cost $22.1)00,000 ) less than any yei
named. Mr. LoBaron Is now an cngineei
for the American-Honduras company , t (
which the government of Honduras rcccntlj
granted valuable concessions.

Is peculiar and the court's Investigation Is

The supreme court has affirmed the casi
of Peter It. L. Vanhorn against Wllllan
Vanhorn , Ilebccca A. Stroblo and Susannal
Bowlby , appellants , Howard district. It was
a proceeding to establish the plaintiff's rlgh
as an Illegitimate son to inherit the prop
erty , real and personal , of Peter Vanhorn
who died Intestate. The dead man was
never married and tbo defendants ore hit
brothers and sisters , who claimed his prop
erty by right of Inheritance. In the trial oi
the case a decree for the plaintiff was ren
dered and the defendants appealed. Tne
plaintiff was born In New Jersey and tn
contention of the defendants was that tne
laws of New Jersey do not allow an Illegiti
mate to recover , but the court In reviewing
the case arrived at the conclusion that tnc
laws of Now Jersey are wholly Immaterial
to this Inquiry and all that was necessarj
under the statute was for the plaintiff to
prove that the father had recognized him as
his son , either In writing or generally ana
notoriously during his lifetime. From the
record the court Is led to believe beyond
the shadow of a doubt that the plalntlfl
proved conclusively that Vauhorn was hie
father and as such ho has a perfect right tc
Inherit all his property.
The case of Letha Jackson against the In
dependent school district of Steamboat
Hock , appellant , Hardln district , Is reversed ;
that of Catlierlno dates , appellant , against
F. N. Knots and others , Dickinson district ,
is affirmed ; that of Hath Moller against
Peter Gottsch , appellant , Carroll district , la
dismissed ; that of A. L. Preston against
Christian Peterson , appellant , Pottawat-
tamlo district , is affirmed.
Stale llonril Will Control Patients.
The State Board of Control today Issued
ono of the most Important orders yet given
out by that body. It Is In substance that
In the future no Insane patients can be re
moved to county asylums or elsewhere with
out first getting the board's consent for
such removal. A number of new county
asylums going up over the state have In
many cases been taking their patients away
from the state institutions In carloads ,
whether they are cured or not , and It Is tc
prevent this principally that the order has
been Issued.
Thomas Murphy was sentenced to six

Hardln , a few weeks ago. Murphy was tried
under the charge of assault with attempt tc
commit murder and was found guilty lasl
'Monday. ' Ho Interposed no defense to the
cliargo on the trial , .but relied upon the
weakness of the prosecution. Attorney Has-
tlo , for the defendant , this morning pre
sented a motion to the court for a now trial ,
which the court overruled and pronounced
sentence. The case will be appealed to tlu
supreme court.

Filipinos and Americans dome Very Near to
Exchanging Shots ,
NATIVE LIEUTENANT CAUSES TROUBLE
MyntcrloiiH Proclamation Make * It *
Aiipcaranup In Manila Calculated
to Foment Ilel
Sentiment * .
MANILA , Jan. 13 ( Via Hong Kong , Jan.
21. ) The Americans and Filipinos were
probably nearer a conlllct this afternoon
than , at any tlrno since the occupation. For
tunately the matter was amicably settled.
A Filipino lieutenant , Imagining that his
men had been insulted by some American
troops , marched a company of forty armed
no-lives to the line of the Amorlcaus and
the sentries , four in number , back of the
Montana regiment , In obedience to orders ,
were compelled to retire to the outpost in
order to avoid trouble.
As the Filipinos obeyed the command to
halt , deployed In the canebrake and as
sumed a determined , threatening attitude ,
Lieutenant Jansen , who was In command of
the post , telegraphed to brigade headquar
ters and General Otis personally Investi
gated the matter. The Filipino captain was
summoned and ho was also found to bo
excited. As a result of the conference , ho
admitted that the Filipino lieutenant had
exceeded his authority. His men were drawn
up In line , saluted , courtesies were ex
changed and the Filipinos retired.
The Incident is significant as It shows the
tendency of the Filipinos to disregard pick
ets. knowing that the Americans are not
willing to commence hostilities nnd It also
demonstrates the danger of Irresponsible
junior officers of the Filipino army precipi
tating trouble at any moment.
Another Proclamation.
Another proclamation , purporting to be
English to brother Americans and comrades
appeared on Friday and applied In broken
English ot brother Americans nnd comrades
to let the Filipinos alone and that "If their
officers compelled them to llio to please flro
In the air. " The proclamation also appealed
to Americans to disregard Filipinos "who
pretend to favor annexation , " and allege
"tho American Intention to hold the Inlands
is fostered by a few officers who are making
money thereby. "
The proclamation concluded with para
phrasing the Monroe doctrlno In the words
"Tho Philippines for the Filipinos. "
A native dentist hero named Arcvelo has
been arrested. Ho denies the authorship of
the document , but admits connection with It.
Other nrrcsta arc probable. He has been
twice Imprisoned by the Spaniards for trea
son. Ho was formerly an aldo of Agul-
naldo and his arrest caused consternation
among the Filipinos.
The native paper Indepcndcncla , which Is
now published at Malolos , Is unusually vln-
dlctlvo today. Commenting upon the situa
tion It says : "The Americans are trying all
the time to excite the Filipinos to com
mence hostilities , In the meantime tricking
the natives for the purpose of gaining time
necessary for bringing out reinforcements. "
The paper adds : "Tho proclamation which
was suppressed and for which Arovelo was
arrested appears to have hit the nail on the
head. The Filipinos need fear nothing. The
American soldiers are completely demora
lized. They are unwilling to fight a free
people who are only demanding their
rights. "
The Idea of possible deception Is probably
more general than the authorities know. A
Filipino officer said to the correspondent
that It was ridiculous for the Americans to
think that the Filipinos bcllove they are
bringing more troops and war ships to es
tablish a protectorate over a country for
which $20,000,000 has been paid.
The Malolos government Is Indexible and
Agulnalilo'e determined stand seems to have
temporarily welded all factions together.
