at Nome. Is In Mount Zion Hospital, at
San Francisco, a private institution, as
violently ill, according to current re
ports, as others concerned in the Nome
corpirncy have been on occasion when
jiiFt.'f wa overtaking them.
Irstead of being cut off from Govern
mrt support, after the acathing censure
of tho Circuit Court of Appeal in San
Francisco, he continues to draw pay ot
the rate of S50C0 a year, and, as he is
absent from Nome, ?10 a day additional for
expenses. While seeking delay through
appeal to the Supreme Court of the United
States his compensation from the Gov
ernment, rfnee the decision of the court
at San Francisco vn rendered, has near
ly equaled the line of the court imposed for
an offense which Jutice Ross, one of the
highest judicial ofllcials west of the Mis
sissippi, declared from the bench ought
to have been a sentence to jail for IS
months.
IIcccIvck Ills Maney In .Tail.
This Is not all. United States District
Attorney Josvph K. Woods, by his own
confession Implicated In the conspiracy,
was given a IlRht sentence of four months
in Jal! by the United States Circuit Court
of Appeals In San Francisco. The brief
imprisonment was in view of his confes
sion Ho i now serving out that sen
tcrce. but while he languishes in Jail he
is still on the payroll at the rate of $5000
a year.
Moreover. C. A. S. Frost, who went out
from Washington some months ago as
the special agent of the Department of
Justice for the express purpose of ferret
ing out the situation at Nome and truth
fully reporting the same to the authori
ses here, but who joined forces with
Judge Noyes and District Attorney
Woods poon after he arrived there, is
nt liberty in this city. His salary of
52500 as private secretary to Judge Noyes,
a position that he graduated to by suc
cessive stages after he reached Nome,
an intermediary stnge being that of As
sistant United States District Attorney,
still runs on. Although he is under sen
tence of one year in jail, every day that
by means the taking of additional
5 !ars from the Federal Treasury as
t mpensatlon for his services. He has
Ix-on allowed to remain at large for 30
days, pending Judge Noyes' appeal, which,
good iawyers jay, can hardly have any
other fate than being thrown out of court
by the united States Supreme Justices.
At least this was the fate of a similar
appeal by Receiver Alexander McKenzie,
who was sentenced for contempt because
of similar offenses.
IlloeUed by l'on-crfal Politicians.
The while these large salaries go on,
the business interests at Nome, and they
arc very large, amounting to hundreds
of thousands of dollars have been clam
oring for a pure and honest Judge, be
fore whom litigation can be taken with
some degree of conlldence. An influential
coterie of politicians, however, is wielding
an Influence that is amazing. All these
men come from the West, and by quiet
but forceful methods have been able to
block progress at every turn in this
most remarkable judicia.1 Incident, than
which, if the printed decision of the Cir
cuit Court of Appeals and the statements
of reliable men are to be taken, nothing
more disgraceful over darkened the his
tory of the Federal Courts.
Circuit JEtrge Morrow, who, with Jude
Gilbert and Judge Ross. Imposed the sen
tences for contempt, has been in Wash
irgton for a few days on business con
nected with the Carnegie Institute, of
Mil rh he is one of the trustees. To his
friends hero Judge Morrow talked with
eome frankness of his surprise that such
a notorious case as that of Judge Noyes
and the others, which the court express
ly declared to be a corrupt conspiracy,
could be treated with such leniency. Ev
er contemplated move of the Government
has been dclaycdbyfcoft Interposition of
politicians, who have hovered near Wash
ington apd urged something in extenua
tion of the offenses. Efforts hive been
persistent to cast reflection upon the Ju
dicial attitude of the court at San Fran
cisco, notwithstanding the high charac
ter of the Judges composing it.
Advised the military to Resist.
An instance to the point Is the cae of
Dudley Dubolse. the attorney for McKen
zie, who was adjudged in contempt. By
some moans the conviction was conveyed
to Washington that the Circuit Court had
adjudged him guilty because he advised
his client (McKcnzie) contrary to what
was subsequently the decision of the
court at San Francisco.
When the certlfled copies of the de
cision were consulted It was found that
Duboise had not been sentenced for that
offence at all, but for making a speech in
a public hall at Nome, advising the peo
ple there, who were not his clients, to
resist the writs issued by the Circuit
Court at San Francisco. Furthermore.
he advised the military commander at
Nome. Major John T. Tan Orsdale, In
charge of the detachment of Federal sol
diers .stationed there, to resist the writs
of the Circuit Court. It was for those of
fenses that the Circuit Court sentenced
him.
The remarkiblo incident will be brought
to a close soon, it is expected, for no ont
questions the determination of President
Roosevelt and Attorney-General Knox to
net as soon as they can get authoritative
Information. The Circuit Court's decision
was rendered January C, and a few days
ago Mr Knox secured for the first time
a certified copy of the decision. Judge
Morrow, who left for the Pacific Coast
yesterday, called at the Department of
Justice late last week regarding another
matter, but incidentally discussed the
case at some length with the Attorney
General, who was put in possession of
knowledge regarding the conspiracy
which had not previously reached him.
Others have arrived in Washington, or
will $ooti, who can tell him and the Pres
ident some political and business aspects
of the case which have not appeared in
the judicial decision.
Mclvcnrlc Gnvc Up the Gold Dust.
When the late President McKiniey was
in San Francisco, he had a consultation
with Judge Morrow, prior to the pardon
he granted to McKenzie, who was then in
jail for contempt. Not long afterward
3Ir. McKiniey mentioned to certain of his
friends that in all his long political career
he had never before been subjected to
such tremendous pressure from influential
men as he had been to pardon McKenzie,
who. b the way. is a member of the Re
publican National Committee.
Judge Morrow refused to recommend
the pardon of McKenzie until he had
turned over some $5000 in gold dust to the
owners. Telegrams were exchanged with
Washington. It is asserted, that McKenzie
had settled in full. Judge Morrow by
telegram denounced that statement as
utterly false. Later McKenzie did give
the order for the transfer of this gojd
dust, and bubsequently was pardoned by
the President.
While McKenzie was languishing In Jail
he was represented as being at death's
door. A few hours after his release he
was observed by a reliable eye-witness.

IIOAV HIGH ART HAS BEAUTIFIED UXCLE SAM'S FINE XE1V CRUISER.
The accompanying half-tone is reproduced from a photograph of the figurehead of the new cruiser Cincinnati, taken by E.
Muller, and also reproduced In the Army and Navy Register. The Navy Department has lately returned to the fine custom of
adorning its fighting vessels with figureheads, a custom which was discontinued when the service evolved from a wooden navy
to one of steel. The picturo of the Cincinnati's figurehead show.s that the possibilities of artistic decoration have by no means
been lessened by the fact that metal, instead of wood. Is unid both as a background and material for the bas-reliefs.
into a detailed review of Frost's opera
tions at Nome.
Intimate With oycs nnd Mclvenx.le.
Frost held onlce as Special Examiner of
the Department of Justice till September
15, 1S00. when he resigned to become as
sistant attorney to Joseph K. "Wood. The
opinion tells how Marshal Vawter gave
direct testimony declaring that the rela
tione between Judge Noyes-, McKenzie and
Frost were Intimate, and that Frost, on
September 15, 1900. told him that the writs
of supersedeas issued by the court at San
Francisco were void. Vawter also has a
letter which Frost wrote him giVing au
thority to Incur unusual expenses Inci
dent to the swearing in of a posse comi
tatus to prevent the delivery of gold dust,
aa directed by the Circuit Court at San
Francisco.
"There are other facts, fully proven,"
continues the court, "which show the deep
pensonal Interest Frost had in the Mc
Kenzie receivership and his partisanship
In the controversies then pending." Judge
Gilbert, in the decision rendered by the
court, goes on to cite how FroUf "In vio
lation of his duties- as an ofllcer of the
United States, and for the purpose of aid.
ing McKenzie. employed on behalf of the
United States three detectives," who were
engaged to watch the movements of the
defendants in the litigation before the
court. His excuj?3 for employing these
men are mentioned, but the court says,
there is positive and direct evidence con
cerning the purpose for which the detec
tives were paid out of Government funds,
and the purposes were not thoae men
tioned by Frost in his testimony. One of
these detectives had a bill for ?900. The
decision of the court concludes with this
language:
Grosnly Betrayed the Government.
"George V. Borchsc-nius, the clerk of the
court, testified that he objected to the
payment of the bills of these detectives
for the reason that he did not think they
were proper bills, but that Judge Noyes
ordered him to pay them immediately, and
said to him that he could either pay
them or be In contempt of court. The
whole of the evidence concerning the case
of Frost convinces us beyond any rea
sonable doubt that he not only aided and
abetted to the utmost of his power the
efforts of McKenzie to obstruct the execu
tion of the writs of supersedeas, but that,
in his official capacity, he grossly bertayed
the interests of the United States which
were intrus-ted to his care."
HIS CLAIM NOT GOOD.

DENVER, Feb. 9. It is announced that
Attorney-General Post has decided that
William Itadcllffe hao no Just claim against
the State of Colorado or the Government
of the United States for the detraction of
his property at Grand Mesa Lakes by
fire, and that Governor Orman will reply
to this effect to the communication from
Secretary of State Hay on the subject..
The Attorney-General'6 report on the in
cendiarism at Grand Mesa Lako. which
was forwarded to Secretary Hay, details
the causes of the bitter feeling against
Radcliffe among the inhabitants of that
region, and rtiows that the state made
every effort to fix the responsibility for
the burning of Radcllffe's property, but
failed to apprehend the guilty persons.
Secretary Hay will be told that the state
very i-orry for Radcllffe's loss, but that
is all It can say in extenuation.
It is said that should the British Am
bassador. Lord Pauncefote, press Rad
cllffe's claim for $55,000 damages after re
ceiving the Governor's communication, ev
idence will be provided that Radcliffe Is
not a British subject, having applied for
citizenship in the United States and re

WHO WERE OUR FRIENDS?
KCIIOI'E.VX NATIONS AXD THE
SPANISH AVAR.
Hxposnrc of the Plot of Grcnt Britain
and Its Turpitude Conti
nental Friendship.
By the Boston Pilot, well known to the
newspaper world as a vigilant enemy of
British tyranny and chicane, evidence
Is presented which hitherto has been kept
carefully secreted, from which It appears
that our entire Spanish War was the re
sult of a deliberately laid plot on the part
of the English Government, which only
failed of accomplishing Its purpose by the
unexpected friendship shown to the United
States in quarters where It had not pre
viously been counted upon.
It is a story of extraordinary cunning
and duplicity. Realizing that through
the ute of Cuba the United States could
CINCINNATI'S FIGUREHEAD.
be more easily led into a war with a Eu
ropean nation than by any other means,
and that a continuued Insurrection in
Cuba would bring the United States and
Spain into collision, the Consular officials
of the English Government stationed in
Cuba, secretly directed by the British Min
ister in Washington, pushed the Cuban
patriots Into their rebellion. An insurrec
tion in Cuba depended uion the possession
by the leadens of the sinews of war, and
British gold was freely used In supplying
these. Having bc-en started, however, it
became necessary to keep the contention
going, and the evidence secured would ap
pear to show that for two years or more
the British authorities financiered the in
surrectionists, and also by monetary con
tributions prevented the Spanish Govern
ment from becoming bankrupt, and hence
abandoning its effort.
Still the United States did not intervene
with the promptness that had been ex
pected by these English plotters, and
hence the Foreign Oillce at London dis
patched to Havana several of its ablest
men. vho had been trained in the work
of diplomatic Intrigue, men who had been
.suspiciously connected with the Phoenix
Park assassination. These conspirators
appear to have arrived in Havana just
about four years ago, and found their
occasion when, on the 15th of February,
liSS. the United States battle-ship Maine
was blown up. It is now easy to understand
why the Spanish Government and the
Spanish olllcers protested the-ir entire ig
norance of the cause of this terrible trag
edy. At the time no one could have de
tected in this deed the hand of our arch
enemy, who was in this devious way plot
ting our destruction.
Thi event, it will be remembered, made
the war between Spain and the United
States practically inevitable. It then
became merely a question of how soon it
would be declared. The Administration
was holding back for the purpose of get
ting things in readiness; but we are told
that there Is abundant evidence that here
again the hands of the English conspir
ator were to be seen, and that British
gold was freely distributed in the lobbies
of the United States Senate and House of
Representatives in an effort to induce
Congress to force the country into war
before tho Administration believed that
our Army and Navy were preiared for
such a tost. In anticipation of the In
evitable, however, secret orders appear
to have been sent to those In command
of the English channel lleet and the Med
iterranean squadron to be prepared to
sail at a moment's notice for the coast of
North America. A part of the ilcet was
to assemble off the north coast of Cuba
for the purpose of opposing any American
military or naval expedition directed
toward that Island, while two other sec
tions, with bases at Halifax and Bermuda,
were to begin prompt assaults upon our
great Atlantic seaports for the purpose of
laying theai In ashes. On the Pacific
side similar plans had been prepared, by
mean3 of Avhich Seattle. Tacoma, Portland
and San Francisco would have been de
stroyed by the guns of English warships
which were to cruise along that coast.
When the denouement of this terrible
plot against our National well-being was
about to happen, an interference occurred
coming from an entirely unexpected
source. The British Ambassador at Wash
ington was rubbing his hands In glee at
the thought of the surprise which he was
soon to give to the world, when he was
waited upon on the Cth of April. 1SSS, by
the diplomatic representatives at Washing
ton of Russia, Austria. Germany and
France, the former taking the lead. The
British Ambassador was then and there
informed that the plot In which he was
taking the chief part had been discovered
by these assembled diplomatists, and that
their love of the American people and
their admiration of American Institutions
were such that they proposed to thwart
its execution. It was true that the Eng
lish Government had obtained from tho
various European capitals an approval of
the generai plan of intervention, but the
Russian. Austrian and German Clmncel
lors and the French Minister of Foreign
Affairs had been deceived as to the true
purposes of the English, and hence the
English Ambassador was told that If his
government persisted m Its nefarious at
tempt to join the Spanish in llchtlmr the
Americans, orders would be Instantly Is
sued to the Russian. German and French
fleets to assemble In American waters for
the purpose of joining the Navy of the
United States In opposing the intended
British action. rf
This Interview led, as .our readers all
will remember, to the call upon the Presi
dent, made on April 7, 1S9S, at which a
plea was made for peace by those repre
senting Russia, France, Germany and Aus
tria, as a means of best relieving the
strain on the then existing situation, of
which our own Government had at the
time not the least Inkling. It will thus
be seen that while these Continental Gov
ernments took the position that it was
undesirable to have war, they did so
because they knew that the English in
trigues to bring about a war had been due
to a desire to arrest, and. If possible, ruin
the industrial development of the United
States. They, the Continental powers,
thus appeared outwardly to be working
for the Spanish, while In reality, had the
dastardly plot we have Indicated above
been successful, our military and naval
defense. In our then unprepared condition,
would have rested chiefly on the assistance
vhlch the Germans, French and Russians
would have given to us.
From that time on the conditions re
mained not greatly changed so far as in
ternational friendship was concerned. Be-
cause they realized how much England had
Intended to do for them, and how disas
trous to the fair fame of England it would
be to have its intrigue exposed, the Span
ish Government and the Spanish people
tried to bury the affair by pretending that
they hated the English quite as much as
they did the Americans; and knowing that
the Russians, the French, the Germans
and the Austrlans had been friendly to
the United States, and during the time
of the war were doing all they could to
aid our Government, the Spanish Govern
ment and people believed It good policy
to pretend that these real enemies of theirs
were their warm friends and supporters.
As a consequence of this, the curious re
sult has followed that in three and a half
years after the war the American people
have come to believe that the government
which for years had been secretly plotting
their destruction, which had wished to
overthrow the Monroe Doctrine, and, after
seizing a large part of the American Hem
isphere Itself, divide the rest among the
powers of Continental Europe, that this
government of perfidious Britain was our
friend, and that the truthful, sincere Rus
sians, the unselfish Germans and unpreju
diced French, who had been our deliverers
from the snares with which the English
had endeavored to entrap us, were work
ing in a manner inimical to sAmerican in
terests. We now know, therefore, thanks to the
sagacious Boston Pilot, that the entire
Spanish War was a plot started by Eng
land for the purpose of enabling it.
through the co-operation of the Conti
nental powers, to regain possesion of the
control over America that it lost at the
time of the Revolutionary War, and to
also acquire large holdings in Central and
South America. It had assumed that the
grc-at nations of Continental Europe would
be sufficiently covetous to assist it if they
were accorded shares in the division of the
spoils; but these true-hearted lovers of
American democratic institutions resisted
the base appeals which were addressed to
them; they thwarted the English attempt
to bring about our National dissolution,
and are, therefore, deserving- of the un
bounded thanks of tho American people,
as. for their dastardly conduct, the Eng
lish are entitled to America's everlasting
contempt.
III;
nlty of the Turf in EiiRlnnd.
Kansas City Star.
The news that Edward VII will enter
horses in the great English turf events
of the year shows the standing of the
sport in the United Kingdom. President
Roosevelt could not engage in horse rac
ing without an Irreparable loss of pres
tige. It is hard for Americans to appre
ciate the dignity of the Derby or the
St. Leger.
These classic turf events have been un
der the patronage of the aslstocracy for
generations. The St. Leger goes back to
1776 and the Derby to 17S0. For the first
half century of Its existence the" Epsom
.race was almost Invarjably won by a
titled owner. A Duke's horse has been
first past the post on 17 occasions a re
markable record when the small number
of Dukes Is considered. On only four oc
casions has a foreign horse won. Two of
these are to the credit of the United
States. When the Earl of Roscbery's
Ladas captured the event in 1S91 the
owner was generally considered to have
filled the cup of his ambition, for he
was Premier and Derby-winner the same
year.
The Derby has always had the sanction
of royalty. The Prince of AVales, after
ward George IV, attended the first race
and was successful In that of 17SS. It Is
recorded that the Queen was first present
at the sport In 1S40, when she went as a
bride with the Prince Consort. Edward
VII. while Prince of Wales, won the
event in 1S96 with Persimmon and again
two years ago with Diamond Jubilee.
The day of the race is almost a national
festival. It Is a social event of a magni
tude that has no counterpart in the Unit
ed States. Society Hocks to Epsom and
people entertain their friends m tents
about the course with elaborate lunch
eons and tens. So It Is that the King
can take part In this English "gentle
man's sport" with the approval of the
great majority of his subjects.

A Xovcl Violin.
London Chronicle.
It was not often, said Professor
J. A. Fleming, in his lecture at the
Ttoyal .Institution, that a lecturer was
enabled to exhibit an entirely new
musical Instrument In the theater of
tho Royal Institution, but this he waa
able to do through the kindness of
Air. Augustus Stroth, a member of the in
stitution, who had lent him a violin of a
novel kind, which he had invented and
which had never been shown in public be
fore. Professor Fleming had been talking ot
resonance, and he explained that all
string Instruments had sounding boarda
of a particular shape and size. In order
that the vibrations set up in the air by
the drawing of the bow over the strings
might not be lost In space, but might act
on some surface in "resonance." as it was
called, with the strings. For the last 300
years there had been little or no change
in the structure of the violin, which con
sisted now, as it had always done, of
three parts, the strings, the bridge, ana
the body, or sounding box. The art of the"
vlolln-maker lay in the construction of
this box and in determining- its shape and
size so as to obtain the best results. Mr.
Stroh. In his new violin, did away with
the sounding box entirely. The "body"
of the violin consisted of a simple piece
of wood, and the bridge rested on an al
uminum lever, which Itself rested on a
round disk of aluminum; this disk com
municated with a trumpet, the open end
of which pointed the same way as the
head of the violin.
Through the kindness of a lady, who
played the Instrument, the nudlence were
permitted to hear it and judge of Its qual
ities. The new violin certainly had a
beautiful tone, and the music was not of
a metallic nature as might be expected,
though it did not appear to possess any
very superior qualities over an ordinnry
vlolln of one of the gre'at makers. Ap
parently ono of the advantages claimed
for It Is that all violins of this type can
be made of precisely the same tone.
