THE EVENING TIMES WASHINGTON SATURDAY OCTOBER 18 1902 Fi = WORKERS AND WORKINGS OF THE DEPARTMENTS Secretary Hitchcock to Go to St Louis Preparation of His Annual Report Assistant Secretary Miles Lectures at National University Law School DEPARTMENT Secretary Hitchcock will go to St Louis within a few days preparatory to casting vote at the polls seat mouth days and then return to Washington Reports are now being received by the Secretary from the General Land Office agents and he is accumulating data from correspondence and records with which to begin his annual report to Congress One of the most interesting features of his report will be the chap tfr which concerns the illegal of the public domain in the West and the satisfactory progress that has been made against consolidated cattle and fencing syndicates whose agents are said to have outrageously infringed on the rights of individual farmers by usurping without the slightest claim fertile grazing land for their own greedy purposes and defied the authorized agents of the department when notices were served on them to vacate Acres and acres of this land were evacuated in the past summer as a result of the stern action directed by the Secretary along lines formed in his consultations with President Roosevelt last spring The grazing season having closed cattle are aoir being coralled and there are fewer disputes between cattle and sheep men in the West to worry the Secretary Queen LIHuokalanl is still agitating her claim to secure some reimburse- ment for the crown lands she lost when the Hawaiian Islands were annexed to the United States At the last session of Congress there was a bill introduced- in behalf of her highness on these grounds but after short discussion it was removed to the files in the archives of the lupitol to die with hundreds of other appropriation bills More than that there was little favorable comment- on the measure With this in view of the Interior Department who have heard semiofficially that Queen liiliuokalani intends to present a claim to the Secretary for the purpose of hav- ing him recommend to Congress that its payment be authorized emphatically assert that there is no hope for the former queen finding support in her contention unless she has found better foudatiou for her claim than has been published heretofore- W Bertrand Acker chief clerk of the miscellaneous division of the Interior Department made public today the of ficial annual of Major O I Hein Third United States Cavalry act- Ing superintendent of the Yellowstone National ParK It was

Treasury will also name an official to consider the sites and while the reports of the two inspectors will be made to their re- spective chiefs they will be jointly con- sidered by the commission named by Congress to select the site So far thirteen offers of sites have been re- ceived at the Postoffice Department but inasmuch as none of them was accom- panied by certified checks they are not considered by Treasury officials as being formal offers Nevertheless these sites will be con sidered Ly the Postoffice official as signed to the duty with a view to their adaptability to the needs of the pow York office It is not believed that any of the plots so far tendered meet the re quirements of the proposed new office It Is desired to have a situ which Is bounded by four streets and none of those offered for sale has this advan- tage As a result of this unsatisfactory sit uation the Architect of the Treasury has inserted advertisements in a number of New York papers asking for formal proposals and it is hoped that other offers will be received for sites which have the advantage desired AT ECLIPSE Crater Linne Covered With Hoarfrost CAMBRIDGE Mfss Oct 13 Sub- stantiation of important theories was obtained by Harvards astronomical au- thorities in their observations of th 2 lunar eclipse The observations con- cerned themselves principally with tho crater Linne and were carried on by Prof W H Pickering who carefully measured the area around the crater be- fore and after the eclipse with a mi- crometer and confirmed all his past ob that the bright grew no- ticeably IK area during the time ot maximum darkness For many years It has been noticed that tbe area around Linne has been gradually changing its form and many conjectures as to the reason have been advanced Prof Pickering has alway maintained that the light from the spot Is that of hoarfrost though he has real ized that it may be reflected light The fact that the spot grew perceptibly larger when the suns heat was cut off last night by the interposition of the earth confirms Prof Pickering in his hoarfrost theory He is now practically settled upon that point and hopes with this as a basis to work out a pet theory of his own concerning the earths big satellite What this theory is he wll not say As far as photographs and the making of occultations were concerned the ef torts of Harvards observers were vir tually failures This was due to the clouds which obscured the moon during the critical period of Its full eclipse anj it came as a severe disappointment to the professors engaged in visual anti photographic observation THE PURSUIT OF KLEIN No Further Efforts Will Be Made for His Return BALTIMORE Oct the monthly meeting of the directors of the Mary- land State Hospital for the Insane at Spring Grove yesterday afternoon it was decided that no further tarps shall be- taken to secure return of George KleIn to the institutio- nIt having been decided by the Vir ginia judge said one of the officers of the institution yesterday that the State Maryland cannot compel him to return and the same authority having refused to demand ban for Kleins ap- pearance before the supreme court In- case we should appeal there we concluded that pursuing him further would be simply chasing a shadow It we appealed under present Klein might be In California when the time for trial arrived When the man was acquitted In court here of the charge of murder on the plea of insanity he was sent to this In- stitution that the State of Maryland might be protected from him not b permitted to return and the onds of justice are stilt accomplisher though not in the manner intended His escape wa doubtless deliberately planned and executed by his relatives I SEARCH FOR SITE FOR rest ftke

prospective settlement of tho an- thracite coal strike will it is said at the Navy Department remove an uncer- tainty relative to the naval maneuvers planned for this winter It was feared at one time by the officials at the de- partment that it be necessary to abandon several of the imoprtant prob- lems planned for the Caribbean neuvers because of the shortage in the supply of bituminous coal as a result of the anthracite strike Early last spring Rear Admiral Brad- ford chief of the bureau of equipment of the Navy Department made large con tracts for an adequate supply of coal at normal prices for the navy during the coming winter Recently however sev- eral of the bituminous operators have found it impossible to fulfill their con tracts with the navy A large supply of coal is on hand at Key West and San Juan Porto RIco but this Is hardly sufficient to supply the ordinary needs of the naval vessels in those waters One of the problems planned for the winter maneuvers was the convoying and carrying of coal In colliers from Nor- folk to Culebra Island In the West In dies It was feared that this problem would have to be abandoned but the end of the strike will probably make it pos sible to continue the original TIED IN GlASS BATTLE Rev Smith Roughly Han- dled by Freshmen KANSAS CITY Mo Oct 18 High school students in Argentine a suburb of Kansas City have fought a class bat- tle every day this week The students captured the Rev E B Smith yesterday afternoon tied him to the rail fence and kept him prisoner two hours because he sympathized with the sophomore class in its contests with the other classes The freshmen turned the hose on the sophomores and bound one of them in the manhole of a sewer The battles re- sulted from attempts by the sophomores- to paint their class numerals on the roof of the smelter M ARE IN A Company terday a Coincidence CHICAGO Oct 18 The Incorporation- in Trenton N J yesterday of the United States Packing Company was looked upon in some circles as the nu- cleus around which the great packing concerns of the country were to be gathered into the long foreshadowed meat trust Packers in Chicago were positive antI unequivocal in their denials They were ready to admit that the coincidence of title and time was strange but never theless they pleaded not guilty It is certainly news to me saM J O Armour whose firm was named as the head of the merger and who has been picked according to general report for president If anything is being done on those lines I know nothing about it I do not know whether there was a corporation known as the United States Packing Company Incorporated In New Jersey today said Arthur Meeker of Armour Co When assure 2 there was no mistake about the incorporation of the company Mr Meeker said If such- a concern was incorporated it has noth ing to do with Armour Co or any of Its Interests It may or may not be a bona tide corporation I think I would know if anything of that sort was being done said Manager Connybeare or the Thomas J Lipton Company and I am certain there IK nothing In the story A DISTRESSING ACCIDENT KINGWOOD W Va Oct 18 Ell Moore a prominent farmer was fatally injured and his

The Secretary of the Treasury willalso name an official to consider thesites and while the reports of the twoinspectors will be made to their re-spective chiefs they will be jointly con-sidered by the commission named byCongress to select the site So farthirteen offers of sites have been re-ceived at the Postoffice Department butinasmuch as none of them was accom-panied by certified checks they are notconsidered by Treasury officials as beingformal offers

Nevertheless these sites will be considered Ly the Postoffice official assigned to the duty with a view to theiradaptability to the needs of the powYork office It is not believed that anyof the plots so far tendered meet the requirements of the proposed new officeIt Is desired to have a situ which Isbounded by four streets and none ofthose offered for sale has this advan-tage

As a result of this unsatisfactory situation the Architect of the Treasuryhas inserted advertisements in a numberof New York papers asking for formalproposals and it is hoped that otheroffers will be received for sites whichhave the advantage desired

AT ECLIPSE

Crater Linne Covered WithHoarfrost

CAMBRIDGE Mfss Oct 13 Sub-

stantiation of important theories wasobtained by Harvards astronomical au-

thorities in their observations of th2

lunar eclipse The observations con-

cerned themselves principally with thocrater Linne and were carried on byProf W H Pickering who carefullymeasured the area around the crater be-

fore and after the eclipse with a mi-

crometer and confirmed all his past obthat the bright grew no-

ticeably IK area during the time otmaximum darkness

For many years It has been noticedthat tbe area around Linne has beengradually changing its form and manyconjectures as to the reason have beenadvanced Prof Pickering has alwaymaintained that the light from the spotIs that of hoarfrost though he has realized that it may be reflected light Thefact that the spot grew perceptiblylarger when the suns heat was cut offlast night by the interposition of theearth confirms Prof Pickering in hishoarfrost theory He is now practicallysettled upon that point and hopes withthis as a basis to work out a pet theoryof his own concerning the earths bigsatellite What this theory is he wllnot say

As far as photographs and the makingof occultations were concerned the eftorts of Harvards observers were virtually failures This was due to theclouds which obscured the moon duringthe critical period of Its full eclipse anjit came as a severe disappointment tothe professors engaged in visual antiphotographic observation

Made for His Return

BALTIMORE Oct the monthlymeeting of the directors of the Mary-

land State Hospital for the Insane atSpring Grove yesterday afternoon it wasdecided that no further tarps shall be-

WILL BE

End of Coal StrikeDifficult Problem-

The prospective settlement of tho an-

thracite coal strike will it is said at theNavy Department remove an uncer-tainty relative to the naval maneuversplanned for this winter It was fearedat one time by the officials at the de-

partment that it be necessary toabandon several of the imoprtant prob-lems planned for the Caribbeanneuvers because of the shortage in thesupply of bituminous coal as a result ofthe anthracite strike

Early last spring Rear Admiral Brad-ford chief of the bureau of equipment ofthe Navy Department made large contracts for an adequate supply of coal atnormal prices for the navy during thecoming winter Recently however sev-eral of the bituminous operators havefound it impossible to fulfill their contracts with the navy A large supplyof coal is on hand at Key West and SanJuan Porto RIco but this Is hardlysufficient to supply the ordinary needsof the naval vessels in those waters

One of the problems planned for thewinter maneuvers was the convoying andcarrying of coal In colliers from Nor-folk to Culebra Island In the West Indies It was feared that this problemwould have to be abandoned but the endof the strike will probably make it possible to continue the original

M ARE IN A

Companyterday a Coincidence

CHICAGO Oct 18 The Incorporation-in Trenton N J yesterday of theUnited States Packing Company waslooked upon in some circles as the nu-

cleus around which the great packingconcerns of the country were to begathered into the long foreshadowedmeat trust

Packers in Chicago were positive antIunequivocal in their denials They wereready to admit that the coincidence oftitle and time was strange but nevertheless they pleaded not guilty

It is certainly news to me saMJ O Armour whose firm was named asthe head of the merger and who hasbeen picked according to general reportfor president If anything is beingdone on those lines I know nothingabout it

I do not know whether there was acorporation known as the United StatesPacking Company Incorporated In NewJersey today said Arthur Meeker ofArmour Co When assure 2 there wasno mistake about the incorporation ofthe company Mr Meeker said If such-a concern was incorporated it has nothing to do with Armour Co or any ofIts Interests It may or may not be abona tide corporation

I think I would know if anything ofthat sort was being done said ManagerConnybeare or the Thomas J LiptonCompany and I am certain there IKnothing In the story
