tlit- Sixth circuit , to 1)0 ) held nt Taulkton
July 2J , prnrtlcally open * the Judicial cam
paign In this Btatp. In that campaign
taken out of politics by legislative action
putting It In an "off" year both parlies
will use alt their efforts to secure as many
of tlio benches In the different circuits M
they can possibly secure. TaklnR the vote
of laist fall on governor , the rcpubllcano anil
populate tach have four circuits In which
they can claim a majority. The First. Third ,
Klfth and Sixth rlrcults nil have icpubllcan
majorities , and the Second 1'ourtli Se\rnth
and eighth circuits gave majorities to the
populist ticket Only In two of these cir
cuits one on ( ach side Is the majority gnat
enough to grant a feeling of absolute secur
ity , those being the Plrst. with a republican
majority of 2.111 , and the Second , with a
populist majority of 1.131. The republican
majorities arc In the Third. 11)9 ) , the Tlfth ,
IfiO. the Sixth , 4tO The populist majorities
arc In the Pourth. 803 , tW Seventh , 370 , the
Eighth. M3.
While thrre ore undoubtedly plentj of can
didates In most of tinelrcultH. . It Is jet so
early that It Is hard to place some of them
In the first circuit Judge Smith Is looked
upon as a candidate to tmucred himself , while
"W. R. Tlpton of Armour Is also considered
In the field Who the populist candidate In
this circuit will be Is jet an open question
In the second circuit Judge June' is consid
ered a candidate for rcnonilmitlon by the
republicans , and among the populteln Ken-
cdy of Canton , Wllkes of SIouKalli , and
1'almcr of Sioux Palis aio considered
In the fourth circuit I" M Goolykoonlz of
Mitchell la being considered as the populist
candidate In tha fifth , Judge Campbell if
consldeicd an a strong candidate for rc-
jiotnlnatlnn by tln > republicans , nnd the popu
lists no considering Senator llouck of Mil-
bank , rfho made the race against Judge An
drews In the third circuit thrpp jrars ago ,
and H 0 Hltitltley of Huron They should
. be pleased to put H H. 1'otlcr of Aberdeen
In the Held , but It In not considered likely
that he will accept a nomination. In the
elxth cluult , ko far no candidate for the re
publican nomination has developed except
Judge Garry , for a ronomltiation , and
from prrsrnt Indications he will fjecure the
rrnomlnailon. The populists conolder that
they will have him os their opponent , and are
at sea as to a candidate against him. The }
may pinto a candidate in the field , but thus
far none cf them have conic forward with an
express ! dmlro to moke the test. The sev
enth and eighth circuit * are entirely In the
JM ck lllll nectlons , and the only Judicial
gossip In that section as jet Is a proposed
contefit between Judge I'lovvman and Joseph
Moore for the populist nomination In the
eighth ilrcult. and Levl McOee as the popu
list nominee In the eevcnth. In regard to
such a contest In the eighth , one of the
leading porwllcts of the state. In mentioning
It a few dajs ago , said that If the populists
nominated cither Plowman or Moore they
deserved to be beaten In that district.
The conteat can bo conwldered ns In full
BYNlng In the ntate from this time forward ,
and with the clraso majorities to work on ,
both sldea will dn eome hard campaigning
The stiongest card In the hands of the re
publicans 19 the fact that It will be hard
to bring fiec silver Into a Judicial campaign
as a factor aud It was on that terue more
than anything else they last the state , or
rather that portion which they did lose In the
ranipolgn of Isst jcar. The popullsla will
make their strong play on the fact that thej
K vo the people a railroad law In the last
ieccion of the legislature and they now want
judges who are in harmony with this loglu-
latlve action to sen that the law is rigidly
observed Much nf the force of this plea
nil ! undoubtedly be lo t. though , as the re
publicans In their rcpolutloni. declared In
laver of the gimp course as they were Jiyt
as stiongly for the law last winter us were

rains which fell over this portion of the
etato the past week have given the farmers
ft fair assurance of good crop returns for this
) ear. Up to tlio time of these rains all the
showers which had fallen In this part of the
etato had been strictly local , and while some
sections had received enough rain to make
their crops fairly certain , others In the same
vicinity were suffering , but the late rains
were general and all received their benefit.
Tlio fact also of linavj rains in western Kan
sas nnd Nebraska tins spring has largely
reduced the probabilities of hot winds this
year and mak t ) the crop more certain. The
rglnnleo assures a large hay crop , which
Tvrnild have been lather short ultliout It
There was plenty of hay on the ground ,
fitarted by the early spring rains , but the
grass was short , and a great deal of terri
tory had to ba mowed over to secure the
amount of hay required to supply the coun
try , but the hay Is jjroulng rapidly now , and
the supply will be ample for all demand * .

"After I had been In New York long
enough to learn the ropes and secure some
sources of Inside Information , I formed a
partnerrhlp with a Chicago broker , who had
acquired about the aamo footing in his city.
Wo did our telegraphing In clpler and by
combining our advantages made money \ei >
rapidly. After wo had been prospering for
about six months wo discovered that the tips
wo exchanged were being utilized on both
boards It was plain that some outsiders had
found the key to our cipher and were profit
ing upon It at cither end of tlio route.
"I grow excited over the matter and wired
him to meet mo at once that wo might fix

telcgiaph mo to buy all of this stock that I
could , 01 en If I had to go to 85. Ho would
make a bluff at buying in Chicago , and I
was to do tlio same In New York ,
"The scheme worked to a charm. The
tappers were as keen after that stock as hun
gry llsh after bait. We atrung them along
till wo had unloaded $60,000 worth of the
stuff , Then he wired me , again In cipher
'Palse alarm. For heaven's sake , sell. ' Then
you should have seen the tappers hump them
selves. But they couldn't give the stock
away , and jou can see that they were not in

WASHINGTON. June 23. The senate com-
mlttcn on finance has fixed the duty on coal
at C7 cents per long ton This rate applies
only to coil shipped from countries which
do not Impose a higher rate on American
coal. H therefore affects only Canada , the
Canadian rate on all coal being the same
There has been a strong contention to hold
the rate down to the rate finally fixed by
the committee and even to lower It , but this
efiort was vigorously contested by the sena
tors from the coal producing states and the
latter class have won.
The committee has also decided to restore
paintings to the dutiable list. The house Im
posed a duty of 25 per cent ad valorem on
lialntlngs This the senate flnanco commit

MADRID. Juno 29 ( New York World
Cablegram Special Telegram. ) Representa
tives of thp Cuban autonomists and reform
Ists in Madrid have sent to the leading
pipers n long protest against the colonial
or liberal parties taking part In the revision
of the clectorlal register or In the con
templated Cuban elections In November , nn
Itsa the government noon decides to redress
their grievances and attend to their com
plaints against the undue share given to the
Cuban rcactlonarj party , stvlcd "union con
stitutional " When the colonial authorities
took upon themselves at least the
removal of half the members of
the provincial and municipal coun
cils to replace the outgoing autonomists
and reformists with the reactionary nomi
nees of Wejler on the pretext that the state
of the colony made the elections Impossible
nnd that councils must bo appointed by the
authorities , they absolutely declined to ac
cept the proffered distribution of seats be
tween the three colonial parties , ns suggested
by the government nnd Captain General Wcy-
ler , In order to keep up an appearance of
fairly executing the reforms to which they
refuse to be a party , na the lion's share was
given to the reactionary colonial party that
wants to mli'lmlzp the home rule policy.
Scnor Canovas recently assured several for
eign nmbassaiors that ho had no Intention of
altering his cabinet or policy , much less of
recalling Captain General Wcvlcr. Ho be
lieves that Wejlcr's mode of warfare and his
severity arc the best nnd wisest means to
attain the pacification of Cuba and by stampIng -
Ing out the revolution and disaffection to
pave the way for home rule.

LONDON' , June 29 The Pall Mall Garctte
this afternoon prints the following dispatch
from Its correspondent at Madrid : Public
attention Is engrossed bj the appointment
of General Stewart L Woodford as United
States minister to Spain
Whllo the government continues to re
pudiate the Intention of recalling General
Wejler , I am In a position to reiterate that
his recall will be an accomplished fact at
no distant date. I learn that In all prob
ability Generals Blanco and Maclaa will
proceed to the Island and divide the supreme
command , and I have good reason to believe
that coincident with the arrival here of
General Woodford , Marshal Martinez
Campos will proceed upon a senarate
mission to CUUB. In accordance with the
wishes of President McKlnley. Martinez
Campos would be the executor of any ar
rangements possibly reached between Spain
and the United States. Indications do not
point to any arrangements being reached
with the United States and Intimate friends
of Senor Canovas del Castillo declare the
premier will strenuously oppose autonomy.
Castelar ( the liberal leader ) Is also opposed
to nnj thing of the Wnd. They both con
sider that Mich a concession would render It
very difficult to maintain Spanish sever
eignty.
The report that the United States will In
sist on autonomy and the withdrawal of the
Spanish troops and that otherwise It will
Intervene by force if necessary does not
make for a peaceful solution , and the posi
tion Is regarded throughout Spain with con-
oldcrablo anxiety. '

J. E. Houtz of Lincoln , who has Just ueen
appointed collector of Internal revenue for
( his district , vvas In Omaha yesterday and
was a visitor at the revenue office. He said
he would not be able to take possession of
the office until about July 10 , as ho had just
received liU papers , and would have to pre
pare his bond and have It approved. IHs
bond will be $75,000 for the collectorshlp , and
$10,000 as disbursing agent.
On the subject of appointments In the de
partment under his regime Mr. Houtz was not
ready to make any definite statement , wishIng -
Ing to reserve those things until after he
had taken charge of the office. It is prob
able , however , that E. W. North , the present
chief deputy , will be retained In his position
for some time , at least until the now col
lector become thoroughly familiar with the
duties of the position. It Is altogether
likely , too. that the field deputies will be
supplanted In tlnut by others whose political
faith Is moro in harmony with that of the
collector As to the office force , changes will
bo slower , Mr. Houtz desiring to become
thoroughly acquainted wltth the force and
extent of the civil service law which Is said
to govern those omplojes , before making any
decision on this point.

secure it by putting in a system of public supply. What is
the result ? The water thus furnished varies all the way
