TO BE ORGANIZED FOR BUSINESS Changes WIll Forestall Attempt to Reform Department by Legislne tive Action—Victory for Line Officers. Noy. #.—By inaugura- comprehensive plan to reform in y department tomorrow Secretary Meyer will forestall probably all attempts &t congressional reformation of the depart- ment for the present. At the present time that the bureau of equip- ment be abolished, which can be accom- plished by congress alone. A year hence It his reforms are found in practice as they he will ask congress to the changes by enacting appear on paper, into law, Legislation is particularly desired in order to allow the secretary to name any of- desire as his four alds, one operations of the fleet, a second for materlal, a third for personnel and a fourth inspection. At present he is limited to the higher ranking oficers. A law I8 desired to permit the secretary to detall officer to this duty who may show unusual fitness for the place. Liitle else than the effect of the re- forms was discussed at the Navy depart- ment today, They are regarded as a strik- ing victory for the line officers. Secretary Meyer Intends to appoint younger men to the positions of com- mandants and captalnfs in the navy yards. Their tenure of office will be three years at least and instead of making it an “easy snap” for officers who want to round dut their careers, the commandants in the future will be men who will later go out in ccmmand of ships. MAY ROLL OWN CIGARETTES Court Holds Making Dope Sticks for Self is Not Manufac- ture. MITCHELL, 8. D. Noy. 30.—(Special)— The law passed by the last legislature with reference to the manufacture of cigarettes has been the means of turning u large amount of money in the way of fines into town treasuries, particularly this city, where the law was enforced by the police department to a remarkable extont. Any person whom the police digcovered rolling a dope stick was arrested and taken before the justice of the peace, where he got a fine of $10. The police department Inter- preted the law to mean that a person who rolled a cigarette for his own use was manufacturing It. Judge Frank B. Smith of this circuit holds a different opinion on the mannufacture. James Carney was ar- rested on the charge of manufacturing a clgarette and got the customary fine In police court. He appealed to the ¢lrcujt court and his case was heard today. His aticrney, H. B. Hitchcock, argued that {he mere rolling of a clgarette for one's per- sonal use was not in the nature of manu- facturing for sale. The court held the same view' and the prisoner was dls- charged. There will be no more arfests in Mitohell when & persowmrolls a/cigaretts for his own use. VITAL ORGA_!IS ON WRONG SIDE Iowa Man Has Heart on Right Side and Liver on Left.

Only once before in the history of the Institution hae there been a similar case in the local hospital and the physicians state that they are a great rarity and that few people have ever lived with their internal organs Inverted. One of the strange features of the pres- ent case is that Martin for years did not know that he was a freak. One day he had a pain in' his right side and he went to a doctor. A satisfactory diagnosis was not reached untll the physicion hade made a thorough examination, Last month'Mar- a years one ever | tin was afflicted with liver trouble to such an extent that treatment In the University of Towa hospifal was necessary and he was bruuxhl to this city. Examination in the clinic ' revealed the strange condition of the man's physiology and was taken as a | subject before the classes so that the stu- dents might view the phenomenom. Thd doctors state that Martih will live to m-ripe old age.

General reply: “The government of General Estrada completely assured of an ultimate triumph and much stronger than Zelaya, who, with his accomplices, owe reparation to the country, and Estrada being the unanimous choice for president of the liberal party alded by the conservatives, will not ac- | cept any terms other ttnn the recognition of the provisional government established The transport Buffalo was reported today Estrada has sent the following | as having arrived at Panama.
