In an interview at Chicago Friday, Dr. John Bascom, formerly president of the University of Wisconsin, but now a professor in Williams college, said: “John D. Rockefeller’s dollars have sealed the lips of every instructor at the University of Chicago, and that in¬ stitution will never become a great place of learning." “In the east," he continued, “it is considered necessary to leach politi¬ cal economy and sociology in every large institution of learning. How are professors at the Chicago university to do this? They have accepted this man's money, and in fairness to him and themselves they must not tell the young men and women who come to their school how their benefactor gained his dollars. ‘Now that he has gained his dollars he looks about him lor a way to ;,et rid of some of them. He decides he will endow a university. Is there a motive other than his liberality? - Wo Eoe his money in the coffers of that Institution. What is the result? The command it silence. “A discriminating beggar would not accept a penny of Rockefeller if he could not get one anywhere else." Then Dr. Hascoin compared Mr. Rockefeller and Mr. Carnegie. “It would be all right tor any man to accept Mr. Carnegie's money,” said he. “There is this difference: Carne¬ gie made his money Decause of a pe¬ culiar state of affairs. The protective tariff is directly responsible lor his great success. "I am firmly convinced t'v.t the University of Chicago would be better off if Rockefeller had never given it a dollar." CONDITIONS MADE BY CASTRO. Recpcncs to Powers Was in Nature of Alternative Proposition. A Washington special tetys: The condition which President Castro at (ached to his response to the allies’ arbitration proposal was in the nature of an alternative i reposition. Almost from I he beginning showing an aver¬ sion to The Hague tribunal, Castro, while accepting the principle of arbi¬ tration, asked that the c ase be tried by one of the American republics. As Pr.sldeni Roosevelt already has de¬ clined to act In the capacity of arbi¬ trator, and as some of tno reasons which inspired him In his de< iination would apply with equal force to the chief executive of any other American ttate than the United States, he was obliged to withhold any indorsement of this proposition cf President Cas¬ tro is unexpectedly lasiatent upon his own plan, the original preposition of reference to The Hague tribunal will carry.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 7, 1903.1 COLOR CAUSES KICK Negro Woman Postmaster in Mississippi Casus Belli. ORDER ISSUED CLOSING OFFICE Affair is Aired in Cabinet Meeting and, Backed Up by President Roosevelt, a Formal State¬ ment is Issued. A Washington special says: Prosi dent Roosevelt has ordered that the postofiice at Indtanola, Mire., be clos¬ ed until the people of that town acqui¬ esce in the presence of a negro wo¬ man as official representative of the United States government in the col¬ lection and distribution of the mails. For two hours and more Friday the cabinet discussed the Indianola post office and the upshot of the discus¬ sion came late in the afternoon in the shape of an official statement from the white house giving reasons why the business interests of the town must he subordinated to the administration’s desire to continue the woman in office. Minnie M. Cox was first named as postmistress by President Harrison, under whom she served three years. She was reappointed in 1897 by Presi¬ dent McKinley. Investigations made by pos;office Inspectors developed, so It is claimed, that she was forced to re¬ sign. The plea of the business men at Indianola that her resignation be accepted and somebody else appointed in order that they may gel their mails iias been turned down, and (licy must accept the edict or have no postofiice. In the meantime they are informed that the Indianola mails will go to Greenville, some miles away, Post master Payne laid the maker before the cabinet. It brought up the whole southern question. It was decided finally to issue a for¬ mal statement concerning the Indian¬ ola ease. Secretary Cortelyou, for the. president, made public the follow¬ ing: “The postmaster at Indianola, Miss., is Minnie M. Cox, a colored woman. She served three years as postmaster under President Harrison. When President McKinley came in she was again appointed, in 1807, nearly six years ago. Her character and stand¬ ing in the community are Indorsed by the best and most reputabie people in the town. Among those on her bond is the present democratic state sena¬ tor from the district, together with tho leading banker at Indianoia, and an ex¬ state senator from the district, also a democrat. The postmaster and her husband own from $10,000 to $ 15,000 worth of property in Sunflower coun¬ ty. The reports of the postofiice in¬ spectors who have investigated tho office from time to timo show that she has given the utmost satisfaction to all the patrons of the office; that she is at all times courteous, faithful, compe¬ tent and honest in the discharge of her duties. Her moral standing in the community is of tlm highest. Her rep¬ utation is of the best. Few offices of thiB grade in any slate are conducted better. Allegation of Threats. “The postmaster recently forwarded her resignation to take c-ffoct on Jan¬ uary 1, but the report of inspectors ami Information received from various reputable white citizens of the town and neighborhood show that the re¬ signation was forced by a brutal and lawless element, purely upon the ground of her color, and was obiained under terror of threats of physical vio¬ lence. The mayor of the town and the sheriff of the county both told the postofiice inspector that if she refused to resign they could not be answerable for her safety, although at the same time not one word was said against her management of the office. On Jan¬ uary J the bondsmen telegraphed that th0 waa cloBed; that the postmaster claimed that her resigna tion wag in the president's hands to take e ffe C t January 1, and that there ^ been no a(Jylce of , hf . appointmont of her successor." “By direction of the president the following telegram was sent by the postmaster general to the bondsmen: “ ‘The postmaster’s resignation has been received, but not accepted. In view of the fact that the office at In¬ dianola is closed all mail addressed to that 0 gj ce w jn be forwarded to Green ville.’ ' "jfjg papers in the case have been prjnt to the attorney general for ac tion.” Victims of Deadly Toy Guns.

GL0KG1A JUSTICE RtS QNS. Judge W. A. LUtis Quits Supreme “ Court Bench and Attorney Lamar Succeeds Him. Associate Justice William A. Tittle, of the supreme court of Georgia, ten¬ dered his resignation Thursday morn¬ ing to Governor Terrell and as soon as it was accepted Hon. Joseph K. Lamar, of Augusta, was named to suc¬ ceed him. The resignation of Justice Little will no doubt ctiuso great surprise throughout the st|te. He was elected in 1900 for a lerjjf of six years and had four more years to serve and it. was generally thought, among his ,Tiends that he would continue on the bench for the remainder of his life, on account of his great love for the work. But for the past year Judge Little has not been in the best of health and when he did not improve as he thought he should he deter •mined to give up his position and resume the practice of the law at his home in Columbus. He notified Governor Terrell Wed¬ nesday afternoon that he would ten¬ der his resignation Thursday to take effect on January 13, and thouga Gov¬ ernor Terrell requested him to recon¬ sider, he insisted that the resignation should be accepted. Governor Terrell then made up his mind to appoint Hon. J. R. Lamar, qf Augusta, and he at. one a notified hhn by telegram of his appointment. Justice Little has made an admira¬ ble record since on the bench, and was regarded as one of the strongest members of the court, To the mem hers of the court anil to the state as well his loss will he greatly felt. He was eminently qualified for the position and he was,often compliment¬ ed for his decisions, It will be a gen¬ eral source of regret mat. lie has re signed. Hon. J. H. Lamar, who succeeds Justice Little, is one of the most dis¬ tinguished lawyers in the state. He has f or many years been at the very top of his profession, and it is general¬ ly conceded" that a better selection-, could not have been made. Mr. Lamar has lived in Augusta for many years. At present he is a mem her of the board of examiners, which hoard prepares and passes on the- cx aminations of oplicants for admisaSon to the bar. IJ_e wg.s„ recently reap polntefto thin posit.lon'ny the supreme court for a period of six years. The order appointing Mr. Lamar says he shall hold office from January 13 until the next general election, which will he in October, 1904, and at that time ho shall be elected for the. unexpired term of two years which, will have to be filled. Governor Terrell received a tele gram Thursday afternoon from Mr. Lamar stating that he would accept tho appointment. ONLY BENEDICTS ELIGIBLE. Batchelors Barred from Service on Capitalist Williams' Railway. A special from Norfolk, Va., says: Unmarried men are excluded from tho service of the great Williams railway, of Norfolk, Portsmouth and Newport. News, and it, is possible that the same rule will be applied to other roads of the Virginia capitalist. Manager Gunn says the plan of employing only mar¬ ried men insures a steadier, soberer, more reliable claBS t)f men. who are more accommodating to the passen gers and have at'heart the interests of the road.

Taft, now president of the Philippine com mission, will be nominated to fill the vacancy.
