NEW TORE; May 2. The sensational
interest In the stock market today shifted
from the recent favorites to Atchison, al
though very active interest continued In
Union Pacific. The erratic movement of
the latter stock and its tendency to re
atclon prompted the speculators to turn to
some new field. Atchison was strong from
the opening, and held firm during the
early reactionary period, and the general
market became decidedly weak. About
the middle of the session the movement bllt by planning an

that of the Union Pacific yesterday, and

to prevent the entrance of the Gould lines

the Pennsylvania would allow Mr. Gould

that this offer will not be accepted, but
the Wheeling road will be extended into
Plttsbhrg as rapidly as possible. This will
directly benefit both the Wabash and the
Missouri Pacific, giving them a large steel

selling out to the steel trust, made a con
tract to deliver a vast amount of his ton

a year, to the Wheeling road. Mr. Carne

TACOMA, Wash,, Mlay 2. It was differ

of the change. Tacoma could not con

Stovell, and the support that he got wes
enough to keep the locals down to a show
ing of but one man, who made the circuit
in safety. Seattle opened on Thlelmaa
and his sore 'arm for a total of 13 hits,
sufficiently bunched to net six runs. The
work of Kangaroo McCarthy at short was
the feature of the game, his desperate
chances winning repeatedly. Seattle had
no trouble on the bases, for Menefee
who is catching for Tacoma during Zear
foss' illness, could not get the ball down,
and the second ottoman was pilfered
repeatedly. A double steal second and
third was worked by Seattle in the fourth
inning without any attempt to head off
the base-runners. A feature of the game
was the fact that neither of the pitchers
gave a base on balls, and the sharp field

SUPREME COURT FEES.
Decrease In Business In April, Com
pared With Previons Year.
SALEM, Or., May 2. The announcement
yesterday that the fees collected in the
office of the clerk of the Suprenie Court
during the month of April amounted to
only 5183 naturally raises the question
whether the great decrease In receipts is
due to the reduction made by the last
Legislature in the scale of fees. In April,
1S00, the collections In the office of the
clerk of the Supreme Court aggregated
J5S3, or 5400 greater than during the same
month this year. Under the old law, the
appellant paid a filing fee of 525, the re
spondent 520. and the trial fee was J6.
Under the new law the appellant pays 515,
the respondent 510, and the trial fee re
mains the same. The fee for making a
transcript Is also unchanged.
An Inspection of the records shows that
during April, 1900, 13 cases were appealed.
5 cases tried and 10 respondents filed
briefs. During the corresponding period
this year only eight cases were appealed,
four respondents filed briefs, and one case
was tried. It therefore appears at once
that there has been a great decrease In
business, so far as these two periods are
concerned, and that Ihis accounts for the
greater part of the decrease In receipts.
A comparison of amounts that would
be received under the two scales of fees
will show the following: Under the pres
ent law eight appeals at 515 brought In
5120; four respondents' briefs at 510 each,
510; total. 5160. Under the old law. eight
appeals at 525 would have brought in 52C0r
four respondents briefs at 520 each, 5?0;
total, 5280. The difference is 5120, or
what the state has lost by reason of the
reduction. During March. 1901, a part of
the fees were paid under the old law.

In a transcontinental rirolect to offset
the Burlington deal The Commercial
Advertiser says:
"Friends of E. H. Harriman assert with
much confidence today that the syndicate
of which he is t'he head has not lost con
trol of the Union Pacific Railroad. This
claim is significant because persons close
ly Identified with the Harriman syndicate
have repeatedly declared within the past
three days that they couldn't tell any
thing about the situation. The confidence
manifested by Mr. Harrlman's friends to
day is based largely on the supposition
that In the competitive buying of last
Tuesday the Gould and Harriman Interest
secured enough of the Union Pacific
shares to restore their holdings to the
majority point."
Discussing the Union Pacific situation,
the Mail and Express has the following:
"From the current tremendous market
movements In Union Pacific and Atchison
big advances occurring In each today
It became clear that a fight Is going os
between great money interests over the
establishment of transcontinental sys
tems. It now appears that this fight cen-
ln Northern Indiana and -Ohio Is built,
the Gould system will have a direct line
fronr.Cleveland to Chicago, paralleling the
Lake Shore all the way.
''Mr. Gould's plans are furthered by the
backing of Mr. Harriman and Stuyvesant
Fish, who are the leading factors in the
Illinois Central. The Illinois Central has
a direct line from Chicago to Sioux City
and Omaha, furnishing a connection with
the Union Pacific at the latter point. Sev
eral persons recalled today the surprise
.that was expressed two years ago when
the Illinois Central announced its Inten
tion to build Into Omaha. It was thought
at that time that the Illinois Central, a
Harriman road, would sooner or later sup
plant the Northwestern as the Eastern
outlet of the Union Pacific, Northern "di
vision, while the Missouri Pacific 'Is the
outlet for the Kansas division of the
Union Pacific.
"If the Gould and Harriman faction win
the contest for the control of the Union
Pacific, the plans referred to two years
ago would seem to be prophetic, and It.
would appear that Messrs. Gould and
Harriman began mapping out their great
scneme a long time ago."
been necessary to adopt what In other
countries would probably be thbught
harsh measures, for the Filipino Is tricky
and crafty and has to be fought In his
own way.
"One of my sentinels was beheaded
within 150 yards of my headquarters. His
executioner was a boloman, who came
Into camp disguised as a fruit vendor.
He had his bolo hid In his basket and at
the opportune moment drew It and with
one blow cut off the sentinel's head.
"The Filipinos In my district were In
the habit of stopping the wagons .of na
tives and imposing a tax of one American
dollar on each load of hemp. Frequent
complaints werfe made to me, and one day
I sent Captain Hand, of the Forty-ninth
Infantry, to stop the practice. He and
six men concealed themselves In a cov
ered wagon. When they were held up
they opened fire on the Insurgents and
five of them were killed. After that
there was no more levying of taxes.
"The insurgents also caused us much
trouble by tampering with our telegraph
wires. For a while we were obliged to
treat every one outside of our lines as an
enemy. If .a man was caught witnln loo
yards of a telegraph pole he was shot.
On one occasion six Filipinos were found
dead holding to a wire which they had
wrapped around a tree. No one knew
who shot them, but their fate was suffi
cient to. keep ,any of their comrades from
tampering with the lines again."

The total appropriation for the mainte
nance of the Supreme Court for tne next
two years Is 516,000, or 523,000 per year.
Under the old law the receipts of the of
fice of theclerk of the Supreme Court ag
gregated about 56SOO per year. Under
the new law the receipts will be about
20 per cent less, or about J5140, should the
amount of litigation remain the same.
Litigants will therefore pay about 55440 of
the total of 523,000 per year, which It costs
to run the Supreme Court In all Its departments.

WASHINGTON, May 2. The Treasury

ters around the plans of George J. Gould
network of roads from the Atlantic to
the Pacific Ocean, and William K. Van
derbllt and the Pennslyvanla Railroad
people, seeing what was up, have made
up their minds to frustrate them.
"With the Gould and Harriman people
on the one hand are said to be Kuhn,
Loeb & Co., who are identified with the
Union Pacific management, while Mr.
Morgan is believed to have lent his Influ
ence to the Vanderbllt and Pennsylvania
forces. The Rockefellers, who are Identi
fied with Mr. Gould in the Southwestern
deal, are said to have stood al6of from
the Union Pacific Incident, and to have
done nothing which could be criticised
by Mr. Morgan, with 'whom they are as
sociated In many affairs."
Continuing, the Mall and Express says:
"Following the discovery 'that Gould
and Harriman wanted to control the
Union Pacific, carrying with it the South
ern Pacific, it became plain that the Mis
souri Pacific and Illinois Central might be
substituted for the Chicago & Northwest
ern, as the Eastern connection of the
Union Pacific, thereby greatly Injuring
the Vanderbllt position In the West. In
order to protect the Northwestern and
New York Central. W. K. Vanderbllt
started to accumulate a large amount of
Union Pacific stock, and Gould and Har
riman, learning of this, also bought enor
mous quantities of this stock.
"Meanwhile the Pennsylvania, having
lost the Burlington to the Northern Pacific
and Great Northern, also had to fix up
its Western fences. It bought large quan
tities of Atchison. This road gives a
through line to San Francisco out of Chi
cago. Good authorities assert that the
Pennsylvania began, buying Atchison
stock many months ago, but did not think
it was necessary to get enough stock to
exercise control if need be until the Gould
and Burlington deals developed. Now. it
Is asserted, both the New York Central
and Pennsylvania, which entered into a
close alliance two years ago, never had
such need to stand shoulder to shoulder
as they have today. It Is believed they
are acting In harmony In the matter of
the control of the Union Pacific and Atch
ison. "If the enormous buying of Union Pa
cific has secured control of that property
in the interests of the Northwestern, New
York Central and perhaps St Paul, there
Is no necessity for controlling the Atchi
son; but if the Union Pacific has been lost
to Gould and Harriman, the heavy accu
mulation of Atchison today would indi
cate that that line is needed as an outlet
to the Pacific for both the Pennsylvania
and the Vanderbllt lines.

Correspondent Tells How,to Control
' Hoodlums.
PORTLAND, 'May 2. (To the Editor.)
From the numerous articles that have
appeared In The Oregonlan within the
past few months, it 'would seem a very
difficult thing to break up the different
ganga of young hoodlums about the city.
Permit me, however, to suggest that If
the Municipal Judge will do his part there
will be no difficulty" In the matter, and
that there will be but few votes" lost to
him in any future election, the fear of
which, It Is thought, has been the cause
of his having discharged so many vio
lators of the law who have recently been
brought before him.
( Now for the remedy: On each such
young hoodlum being arrested and
brought before the court, the Judge
should fine him, say 55 and costs; and
then send word to the boy's parents
os guardian to come to the Municipal
courtroom: On the arival of such parent
or guardian, let the Judge then inform
him that he can either give, the boy a
good thrashing in the presence of the
court or Chief of Police, and then have
the fine remitted, or the sentence suspend
ed otherwise, or pay the fine or have
the boy sent to jail for a few days.
It will be found that If the parent can
not get the boy home on promises of good
behavior In the future, rather than
pay the fine or have the boy go to Jail,
he will use the whip, and after once
getting thoroughly warmed up, he will
not stop until the boy is also thoroughly
warmed ud.
Of' course the medicine must be admin
istered In the presence of the court or of
the Chief of Police, as otherwise all would
end In broken promises on the part of
such parent, or at most,. In homeopathic
doses. The Judge or Chief should, of
course, have a good, pliable rawhide whip
on hand ready for use by the fond par
ent on his arrival. Such a course was
pursued by a magistrate In one of the
cities in the South and was exceedingly
effective.
In fact, I have no recollection of hav
ing ever heard of any , necessity for a
second dose of a similar medlchie to the
same" youngster. It worked like a charm.

WASHINGTON. April 26. Anyone who
was at the Kansas City convention b"
came Imrrc.scd with th.? fact 'that the
Democratic party regarded' ' William R.
Hearst and his-1 three Democratic papers
as of more Importance to the Democratic
party than all the rest of the press of
the country combined. .The demands of
the Hearst combination were compiled
with without question, and men In charge
of the convention and the various com
mittees made It their business to see that
the New York Journal. Chicago American
and San Francisco Examiner people had
everything they wanted. "We owe It ,to
them as the best supporters of the Demo
cratic party," said one of the leading
Bryanltes at that convention, and ons of
the men who controlled the convention
This is Just preliminary to some Quota
tions from the New York Journal. The
following from that paper Is causing con
siderable pain in certain sections of the
Democratic party: '
"It Is evident that the silver mumjtty
has been finally sealed in Its sarcophagus
In the old strongholds Of fre colflagi
the party has lost ground; In thecfttct
whose people refuse to tolerate attack3
on the monetary standard it has gafrfed
Both sliver men and their opponents thus
recognize the, extinction of the Issue.
"It Is evident, too, that there is no life
In what Is Inaccurately described as. 'an-fl-Imperlallsm.
Real anti-Imperialism,
of course, is Imperishable and Irresistible.
Opposition to the policy of acquiring 'sub
jects' and governing them through mili
tary proconsuls who suppress newspapers
and deport critics will never subside. BtiE
the programme of abandoning the. Philip
pines to an Oriental despotism Instead of
endowing them with American freedom
cannot be made popular by calling It antl
lmperiallsm. "Free silver Is a cumbrous flnancial'sys
tem that was useful fn Its day. but has
been outgrown. To go back to it now
would be retrogression, not progress. So
would be the abandonment of the Philip
pines. The Democracy can never prosper
as a retrogressive party. Whenever it
has flourished It has been as a party of
action one that has embodied. American
energy and courage one that has needed
only to know that it has been right and
then has gone ahead."
Thus the leading paper of the Demo
cratic party wip'es free sliver as an isstie
off the slate. It also practically wipes
out the antl-lmpdrlallstlc cry. As a mat
ter of fact, no one In this country be
lieved that thi3 Government wanted to be
Imperialistic, or any body connected with
it desired it, at least of all President Mc
Klnley and his advisors. Imperialism jn
the - Democratic "party meant retention
of the Philippines. "It has been found,
however, that the people indorse the re

Indorse 'the surrender of them,- and any
party that takes a stand that way will
meet with the same crushing defeat that
the Democrats met with last Fall. There
Is no doubt that the Journal combination
has wiped Bryan off the slate as a- Presi
dential possibility.
