The method of typesetting by telegraph
Invented by M. Rosar, a Hungarian of
Budapest, Is outlined by the Paris cor
respondent of the London Dall Mall, who
has seen the typesetting machine exhib
ited In Paris In the office of the Temps.
The machine, he says, consists in reality
of four separate machines. The first re-
sombles an ordinary typewriter, by means
of which the characters are Inscribed on
a band of paper by a peculiar system of
perforations. This can be telegraphed any-
' where and distributed In thousands of
entiles without necessitating any transcnp
tlon. The band of paper, when It arrive
In a printing office, is simply passed
throus-h the apparatus No. 4 and tne com

Locked In a vault and guarded by a
deputy sheriff, there Is In the village of
Morris, near Cooporstown, N. Y., a collec
tion of old dishes valued nt thousands of
dollars. The dishes nro held pending a de
cision as to their ownership.
Marlon Checsebrough, a farmer In the
township of Edmeston, this county, was
plowing In a field near the Unadllla river
several weeks ago, when his plow strut-It
some hard substance. Almost Immediately
there was a crash as of broken crockery.
The farmer Investigated and found that his
plow had unearthed an old chest contain
ing many pieces of china of an antique pat
tern. There were eighty pieces In all, and
more than fifty were saved Intact. News of
the find spread rapidly, and neighbors came
to see the dlehes and to discuss their his
tory. Old records Indicate that they were
burled where they were found fully 125
years ago by Perclfer Carr, who was In the
employ of Colonel Edmeston, an officer In
the French and Indian war. To Colonel Ed
meston for his services was given a tract
of 10,000 acres, and Carr wns one of the first
settlers, having a comfortable home In the
wilderness, whence he was obliged to flee
from the. Indians. It waa at that time that
the dishes were burled. N
Carr was a tory when the war of Inde
pendence began, and furnished gome assist
ance to Joseph Brandt, the Mohawk chief
tain, at the massacres of Cherry Valley and
German Flats. Returning from this raid,
he was pursued by a party of Oneida In
dians friendly to the colonists, his servants
killed and himself and family carried Into
captivity, where they remained until after
the war. Carr is several times mentioned
In Fancis W. Ilalsey's "The Old New York
Frontier."
Almost Immediately after the dishes were
found the question of their ownership
arose, and bitter feeling has since devel
oped. The farm on which Checsebrough
was working, and which he leases. Is
owned by Henry Burdlck, who asserts
that the dishes are rightfully his property.
Lawyers declare that the heirs of Carr,
If any were living, would be the owners,
and In case there are no helra the china
should go to the state.
Value of the Find.
The papers In the case allege the dishes
to be worth $2,500, but competent Judges
place the value at many thousands more.
A collector recently offered WOO for one
dish a!one. It Is reported. The Burdlcks
gave a bond for 85,000 for the safe return
of the dishes when called for by the court,
but for somo unexplained reason the
dishes are still In the bank vault at Mor
tis. Cheesebrough could have the dishes
returned to him during the pendency of
the litigation by giving a similar bond,
but It Is not yet decided what he will do.
Hs says that In case tho courts award
the dishes to htm he will first exhibit
them about the country and then dispose
of them to the highest bidder.
Many collectors of rare china and brlc-
a-brao who have seen the dishes declare
that nothing like them Is to be found In
the country, Insofar aa the coloring Is
concerned. Moot of the dishes are deco
rated In blue. In unique patterns. A num
ber are elaborately decorated In pink, and
some In pink and blue. In the collection
are four old-fashioned warming plates.
These are of double thickness, with a
space between the upper and lower sur
faces. Into which hot water was poured.
In this way the plates and contents were
kept warm for some time after being
placed on the table.
Elaborate Deeorntlons.
There are several teacups with elaborate
decorations In pink and gold. Two or three
of the dishes are ich odd shapes that no
one has yet ventured to tell for what pur
pose they were used or under what name
they should be catalogued. With one or
two exceptions the dishes are decorated
with Chinese designs, and In many In
stances the coloring Is superb. Both of the
teapots In the collection are broken and
the spouta are missing. Most of the pieces
are decorated In blue, being covered with
drngons and fanciful figures. The surfaces
of the bottoms of all except a few of the
dishes are rough and unfinished, but the
upper surfaces are highly glased, and are
aa bright as though made yesterday.
The cups are at least four Inches In
diameter at the brim and are without
handles. These dishes are decorated in
blue, the saucers having floral designs and
the cups dragons. The largest piece In the
lot Is a platter, for which there has been
an offer of $C00. The coloring Is gorgeous
and perfectly preserved. The platter Is
about eighteen Inches long and a foot wide.
A Chinese scene is depicted, with the color
ing In pink, gold, blue, green, rich reds
and purple. There Is a smaller platter of
the same design.
There are several other large platters, but
with blue decorations. One very pretty
piece hi a plate with pink and blue floral
decorations, and a narrow, delicate border
around the edge. Perhaps the most prized
piece Is a china saucer. So fragile Is It that
It seems miraculous It was not shattered
when the farmer's plow unearthed the
troasure. The decoration Is In a soft
brown.
Besides duplicates of the pieces described,
there are some drinking cups, mammoth
mugs, or steins, glass tumblers, heavy wine
glasses, a pair of decanters and several
plnss salt dishes.
iiw cnesi in wmcn tne crockery was
burled crumbled to dust when it was ex
posed to the nlr, and only Its Iron clasps
and rude lock were saved. It must have
been originally covered with about two or
three feet of enrth. Repeated plowing over
th spot brought the treasure nearer to the
surface, umn this spring It was unearthed.
It has been k own for a century that the
dishes were burled In the vicinity where
they were found. In times past many
unsuccessful efforts were made to unearth
thorn, but no trace was found. New York
