NOT A GAME OF CHANCE

DECISION BV JCDGE BAKER IN A III CKET SHOP CASE. Bayinc Margins Does Not Come Inder tli I.avr Iäinrtfd to Prevent Gambling. In a ruling sent to this city yesterday by Judge Baker of the United States Court from Goshen. Ind., in the suit of James Royce against the Odell Commission Company, of Muncie, he sustains the demurrer to the complaint, and holds that letting on the future market price of a commodity is not betting on a game. Boyce brought suit against the Muncio firm for $3,44.11, which he complains he lost by speculating in market margins. Suit to recover the amount was brought under an act of the Indiana Legislature of 1S52, and the demurrer filed by the defendant contended that the statute now in force does not cover the subject of betting on margins, options or on the rise and fall of market prices. It was further contended that a bucket shop does not of itself constitute a game any more than a pack of cards or a box of dice. In his opinion Judge Baker quoted a nunv buer of decisions showing that money bet on the result of an election could not bo recovered, as such a wager is not within the meaning of the Indiana statutes, and under his ruling Boyce cannot recover the amount he alleges he lost through the Muncie commission firm, as tho complaint does not state a cause of action under the statute of this State. In his opinion he fays: "It is manifest that the bets, or wagers, were made on the future market price, and as the price went up, or down, the result was determined. Betting on the future market price of a commodity Is not betting on a game. It Is beitlng on an uncertain future event, but It no more resembles a game than does betting on the result of an election, or upon the result of a lawsuit. It is obvious that the acts of 1S24, 1S3.5 and 1S52 were not Intended by the lawmakers to embrace bets, or wagers, on the future markets fcr the reason that this species of betting was then unknown. This consideration is entitled to rrjuch weight In the construction of the statute. "It is not. however, decisive, for, If betting on the future price of a commodity fails within the meaning of the word 'game,' as used in the statute. It must be held to be within the statute. But we think it clear that the word 'game' cannot, without -the perversion of common and correct speech, be construed to embrace a bet or wager on the market price of a. commodity." Case Decided by Judge linker. Judge Baker, who Is at Goshen at present, on Tuesday evening forwarded his decision on the appeal in the case of the trustee for Soudan Company creditors against the company to have a $12.000 mortgage set aside. Referee Lamtert, at South Bend, had decided in favor of the trustee, and had ordered the mortgage set aside. The company took an appeal, and Judge Baker affirmed the decision. The case was argued before him here on July 10. Judge Baker took the matter under advisement, and -did net fully make up his mind until Tuesday afternoon. The decision, if not appealed and reversed by the United States Court of Appeals, means that $12.0n0 worth of property will become the common assets of the company, to be divided among all trie creditors, making about 3-1 per cent, dlffeirnce in the amount each will receive. The plant will be located at Elkhart. CITY NEWS ITEMS. Mr. Paul Azbill has gone to New York, to be gone two weeks. Mr. W. H.

Tho fact that out of forty sophomores at Williams Col'rie ten were unable to mentlnn six plays by Shakspeare. fourteen did rot know the author o( "In Memorlam,' twenty-two were unacquainted with Sim Weiler, twenty-three could not r.ame the author of the "Miil on th.- Floss," twentysix could not mention word by Buskin, thirty-four could not tell who Fa 1st a ft was, while thirty. f.w could r.ot mention a slnele poem by either Werdswcrth or Browning, ioesn't prove anytnln .against collegrs. What It does prove Is the kind of homes these undergraduates eame out of. Such knowledge as this 1 not to be grained by

kindergarten, school or university. It Is In a measure, perhaps, inherited, and It is certainly only acquired, not by painstaking study and "digging," but by breathing an air that is charged with scholarlv and literary appreciation, by having such things talked of at the. very breakf4st table and by unconsciously knowing of them long before one is able to understand them. That is education "as is" education. Not many cf us. it Is true, have the selection cf our parents and can so make sure of such a curriculum: still dishonor where dishonor 13 due. It 1? true that a thin veneer of culture may be obtained at college, but it won't wear; ever so little a service reveals the interior mental stuff it strives to gloss over. Dear knows, the poor colleges are responsible for enough that's reprehenslbly ignorant without saddling them with what is due. indisputably, to the home alone. BICYCLE EACES ON AUG. 7.

Some of the Fastest Men in the Country Will He Here. - Secretary Herbert Foltz and Manager Tom Hay, of the Newby Oval Track Association, are busy arranging the details for the big National Circuit meet to be held at Newby Oval the night of Aug. 7. This meet will bring the largest crowd of fast bicycle racers to Indianapolis that have, ridden in this city. Many of the fastest professional riders are under contract with the American Bicycle Company to participate in the professional events of all National Circuit meets, and these riders follow the circuit from the time it opens until the season closes. In addition to the list under the control of the A. B. C. are a large number of fast riders who follow the circuit and pay their own expenses. Many of them are as fast as those under the A. B. C: control, but they prefer to ride independently. The meet wllL also attract the best amateur riders in the country in addition to the professional men. YET IN THE PUBLIC EYE .MEN WHO PLAYED PARTS IN THE GREAT GOEBEL DRAMA Inhnmnn Punishment of Poweri, Hnirnrd and Youtsey Justus Goehel Is Inder Indictment. Lexington (Ky.) Special in Atlanta Constitution (Dem.) Tho men who played a part In the Goebel murder tragedy continue to hold the center of the stage of public Interest in the State. What with the charges of attempts to oppress the prisoners now either convicted or awaiting new trial and the sensational allegations against Justus Goebel, In which he Is accused of having sold a city office in Covington, it seems that men on both sides are destined to play star engagements. A number of women in various parts of the State some time since started a fund of voluntary subscriptions to be employed in the defense of James Howard, whose death sentence for complicity In the Goejjel assassination was reversed by the Court of Appeals, and of former Secretary of State Caleb Powers, whose sentence for life on the same charge met a like sentence before that court. The fund will be kept open for a few days longer and then the result wi. be announced. The project has met with but fair success so far as can be learned, but the promoters claim to be satisfied. That It has been helped by tho recent reports from the Frankfort jail cannot be denied. Powers and Howard during this sweltering weather are confined to the steel cages of the jail. Here they are with some dozen other prisoners, tha majority of whom are negroes. The ventilation is scant, as narrow slits in the stone walls of the Jail are the only, places for the admission of air. Unti; recently, at the solicitation of their friends, the men were coniined in ihe third story of the Jail. Here there were small rooms, stuffy it is true, but comparatively comfortable. County Judge Moore, however, on a tour of inspection decided that the rooms were unsafe and that a man could get away by the use of a case knife. The friends of the prisoners offered to pay for making the rooms secure, but nothing was done w this offer. Special guards were placed over tbe men and were paid from their private pockets. These guards remained a few days and were then removed. Jailer Lawrence said that they were needed elsewhere. The two prisoners were then taken from their rooms at midnight and transferred to the steel cage on the second floor. Both are suffering In health as the result of their long confinement and the change may prove serious, especially In view of the present weather. Henry Youtsey, convicted of complicity In the crime and the man who refused to appeal his case, preferring a life sentence, Is also the subject of newspaper controversy at the present time. Youtsey has been assigned to the coal pits of the penitentiary and there he works during thn hottest days, shovelln fuel Into the furnaces which run the power plant of the penitentiary. Negroes are usually assigned this task, as it has been found that but few white men can stand the tax on the strength even In winter. Youtsey Is working bc-slde seven negroes and some of the original squad nave been changed, two having gone to the hospital overcome with heat and two new hands having taken their places. Youtsey has never been accustomed to manual labor. He was a stenographer uner the Taylor administration and comes from a prcmenent Codington family. His wife was a Miss French and is a member of one of the most distinguished families In Clark county in the biuegrass region of the State. Youtsey Is charged with having posed for a photographer without the permission of prison otlicials and with having attempted to flirt with the lady visitors to the penitentiary. He denies both charges, saying that he did not desire to be pictured in stripes and that his past record was suftlcient to show that he had never offended in the particular of attempting to flirt with women. Justus Goebel, brother of William Goebel, U the next person connected with the great case to come before the public. He appears through the medium of an Indictment by the grand jury of Kenton county. The charge is that he agreed to secure for Jerry Kirtlcy the office of city solicitor of Covington and took $.V a morjth of his salary of as payment for his trouble. A bench warrant was Issued for his arrest by Circuit Judge Tarvin and his ball was fixed at 53X. He has not been arrested, as he is in a distant Western State, where he lives for the benefit of his health. His friends say that he will come at once to meet the charge and his brother, Arthur Goebel. has asked the public through a published card to hold judgment in abeyance until his brother can come upon the scene. Justus Goebel first came into general notice by his race across the continent from Arizona in an effort to see his brother before he died. When William Goebel was shot down Justus was wired ajid he started at one on his long journey to Kentucky only to arrive a few hours late. For months afterwards the Goebel brothers were a power in Kentucky politics and especially in the affairs of Covington. The result of the charge remains yet to be seen. Plerpont Mornn at Home. W. G.

THE GOVERNMENT FARMS AVIICIIC THE AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT TESTS ITS SEEDS. Rural Sicht nnil Sonnils In the Henrt of "Washington Four .Hundred Acre for Experiment. Washington Letter In Philadelphia Press. In this season of harvests and when the public mind most naturally turns to things bucolic the Agricultural Deparment is most prominent. Its very name is suggestive of fields of waving grain, new-mown hay, rustling corn a?d the other stock accessories of rural scenes. In more than sentiment, however, this department now fills the public eye, for upon its reports hang many a stock board speculation and on the predlctiens of its bureaus depend comfort and financial cuccess. Other departments of the government, especially those that have been so prominently before the nation during the past three years, the State, war and navy, all seem to have lapsed Into the routine and taken a rest after three years of unusual activity. The Agricultural Department, which to some extent has been held in retirement by the more spectacurar performances In national and international field has now come to the front and engages the attention of the public, which seem3 relieved to drop the discussion of wars and international complications and turn its thoughts to crops, forestry,' tho weather and kindred subjects handled by Secretary Wilson's great department. The agricultural dominates in Washington even, a city supposed to bei far removed from rural tastes and habits. The clatter of the mowing machine, the swish of the scythe and the odor of freshly cured hay are heard and met with right In the heart of this capital city. Secretary Wilson's department has several experiment gardens and fields within the shadow of the Washington monument, acd them are acres and acres of. public reservation in what is known as "the Mall." where full crops of genuine timothy hay are grown, cut and cured by government employes under the supervision of the superintendent of public buildings and grounds. Colonel Bingham, a distinguished army officer, has change of all this public property and for the summer he assumes the character of a gentleman farmer and oversees the mowing and curing of this hay crop. The product of these public acres is stored away in the barns and stables where public officials keep their teams and the choicest stacks are devoted to the use of the President's own horses in the stables attached to the executive mansion. TKSTIKG SEEDS AND FRUITS. Over on the Potoruar flats a large reservation, reclaimed from the Potomac by a system of dykes and dredging. Is a considerable farm where Secretary Wilson makes tests of secd3 and fruits. The scenes cn this river bottom are such as may be found in oy truck garden region near large cities. There are growing nurseries of trees of all descriptions, all varieties of grain, corn, potatoes, beets and vegetables of every description. There experiments are conducted in the matter of grafting, budding, crossing and otherwise improving upon the natural fruit and seed. The country at large gets the benefit of all these experiments, which are duplicated in more than fifty experiment stations throughout the country. Much of this advanced farming and experimental work has been perfected bv the present secretary of agriculture, James Wilson, who is just now making considerable sHr by his confident predictions that the time is soon coming when the United States will be able to produce everything her people need or use within the confines of her own territory. Mr. Wilson Is a skillful, practical farmer, who personally has been a success financially and otherwise in his vocation. He is a shrewd, welleducated, progressive Scotchman, possessed of all the hard-headedness and perseverance of bis race. His own farm in Tama county, Iowa, Is a model and shows what Intelligence and scientific management can accomplish. It is said to be worth about Mr. Wilson Is an enthusiast on agriculture, and his optimistic predictions of tlte future of the United States In crop raising and development of new crops arc made with the utmost confidence. He is seeking no notoriety by his proclamations, but in telling the people of the United States what he honestly believes will soon be accomplished. The advances in experiments lie baa made in the Agricultural Department have been without any thought of personal aggrandizement, but solely for the. general welfare of the country. He was born in Scotland, and consequently cannot be accused of harboring a presidential boom, his foreign birth precluding such an ambition. 4 ACHES FOR EXPERIMENTS. While Secretary Wilson has done much in the way of experimental tests in farming in and about Washington there is a project now under way which will put the department in the poFscssion of an adequate farm for all these experiments. By the authority of Congress some four hundred acres of the Arlington estate will be converted into a model farm and experiment station. This farm lies along the bank of the Potomac just east of that part of the estate now used for a national cemetery. The historic Curtis and Lee mansion looks down upon its western border,-while the tall Washington Monument casts its shadow almost across the blue Potomac ant touches the

eastern boundary. The property has practically run wild for years except where it was cultivated in little truck patches by negro squatters apd others. Prof. L. C. Corbett, of the department, is In charge of the work of bringing this waste land into a model farm. He received his practical education in the great fruit-growing and gricultural region of central New York. His farm training was supplemented by a four years' scientific course at Cornell College, where he was afterward instructor in horticulture. Through his energetic efforts these 400 acres, where-government mules .have lately been roaming in pasture and the squatter has cultivated a few onions, cabbages and beets, are being transformed Into an attractive, rolling piece of farm land which later cn Is to be tho model farm of the country. Just now men are at work plowing the whole farm and planting cow peas, which are to be plowed under in the fall for fertilizer and rye then sown, which next spring will also be plowed under and give a uniform richness to the soil. A year from next fall fruits and shade trees, embracing every known variety of both that can be propagated in this latitude, will be set out. A perfect system of drainage will be Inaugurated, and, if necessary, preparation will be made for irrigation in case of drouth. There will be model fencing and the most perfect and economical methods of harvesting grains and gathering fruits and vegetables. In the center of this 40u-acre farm a sixacre lot will be reserved, upon which it Is the intention to erect model farm buildings, including a house, stable, barn, piggeries, chickenhouse. wagon sheds and all the outbuildings required on the most up-to-date farm. Here will be exhibited the best taste in landscape gardening and the public will be given an illustration of the possibilities in beautifying farms and rural homes. The lawns will be planted with ornamental trees and shrubbery, and the various kinds of lawn grass vi 11 be tested and exhibited in the turf of the plot. It Is expected that within the next six or seven years this government farm will be in perfection. It will then be one of the noted sights of Washington, and visitors to the national capital will have something of additional interest to attract them. Tbe farm will be divided by walks and roads laid out through the fields and orchards, so that all the experiments can be viewed and examined by visiting experts. THE ORDERS TO DEWEY.

An Apparent Dlnerepnney In Crorrnlnlileld'n Statement. Washington Special New York CommerchlAdvertiser. Tbe statement of Rear Admiral Crowninshield, chief of the Bureau of Navigation. describing how he. and not Lieutenant Whittlesey, wrote the dispatch ordering Commodore Dewey to proved at once to the Philippines and capture or destroy the Spanish fleet, has caused some talk here. The discussion as to the authorship of this dispatch was precipitated by Secretary Long, who said in his Massachusetts Club speech that it was not written by himself, but. like many other famous dispatches, was written by some young otf.cer in the department who never received credit for it. Ssecretarv Long was under the impression that Lieutenant Whittlesey wpte the dispatch ordering Dewey to proceed to t he Philippines, and this was generally accepted until Rear Admiral Orowninshi Id stepped forward to claim the credit. Crowninshields recollection is that Lieutenant Whittlesey brought to him the dispatch from Dewey saying that he had been ordered to leave Hong-Kong by the Governor of that -province within forty-eight hours, and that he tooK this dispatch to the President. Secretary Long being out of town. He says that after consulting with the President and others and impressing uj.on them the importance of answering it at onre to enable Dewey to depart from that port, the President directed him to write a diipatch. and he penned the one in question; which was sent. There is apparently one important discrepancy between Rear Admiral CrowrinshieM's recollection and the official record of the dispatches in the Navy Department. In tho record there is given no copy of a dispatch from Dewey saylryr that he bad been ordered to leave Hong-Kong port within forty-eight hours and asking for orders. There is a dispatch frjm Dewey, dated Hong-Kong. April -5, saying: "In accordance with the request of the Governor of Hong-Kong, the squadron leaves to-day for Mlrs bay, China, to await telegraphic instructions. Address Hone-Kong. 1 will communicate by tug. UEWE V." The dispatch directing Dewey to proceed to the Philippines was dated Wasnlngton. April 24. and read: "Dewey. Hong-Ko-g. War has commenced between the Unlttl States and Spain. Proceed at once to Philippine islands. Commence operation at once, particularly against the Spanish fleet. You must capture vessels or destroy. Use utmost endeavor. Long." The Washington dispatch bears date on; day in advance of Dewey's. These dispatches were possibly ent bout the same time, as it was April 2j in Hong-Kong when it was April 24 in Washington: but even had Dewev'a dispatch been received here before Long's dispatch to him was sent there was no occasion fr . the hurry described by Rear Admiral Crowninshleld to reach Dewey with orders to sail from Hor.g-Kong before the time limit of the Governor of Hong-Kong expired. Dewey announced in his dispatch that the squadron would leave that-day, and he was already at Mirs bay, awaiting orders. whe. the dispatch from Washington was s.-nt. But Dewey needed no specific instructions us to what he should do when war was declared. Assistant Secretary Roosevelt hTd sent him orders ou Feb. ir. three months before, to be in readiness to see that the Spanish squadron did not leave the AIatlc coa.t in the event of a declaration of wa,r. Secretary Long had followed up this order with many others, and Dewey" dispatches show that he was prepared and waiting for the declaration cf war. L-.rg informed him April 21 that war was imminent and ordered him to await orders. Ills dispatch on April 25 shows that he was then rady to leave Hong-Kong for Mir lay, and announced that he would leave and await orders at that point. Hear Admiral Crowninshleld may have written th
