NO ftiORB SOROHUM SUQAR,
The Factories In Kansas Will Cease Oper
ations for Financial Reasons.
Port Scott, Kan., Sept. S.—Thera
are but two sorghum sugar factories
in the state and neither of them
wilt make any sugar this year.
One Is at Medicine Lodge and
the other in this city. The lat
ter made over 730,030 pounds
of sugar last season and claimed over
911,000 bouuty. The former made
less than 100.000 pounds, owing to a
failure of the cano crop. This year
both factories were contemplating an
unprecedented output, as the canc
crop is exceptionally good, but it is
being worked into sorghum and ship
ped out, the managers claiming that
the sugar duty does not enhance the
price of sugar sufficiently to make
sugar as profitable ns sorghum.
The sugar industry which six years
ago seomod so promising in Kansas
cannot be adjudged a success. Even
witli the advantage* of a bounty of
two conts a pound the six mills in op
eration in the state in 1380 had been
reduced to two in 1303, and the ma
chinery had been shipped to Louisiana
for sugar cane factories. The manu
facture of sorghum, however, is rapid
ly becoming a feature of farming in
Southeast Kansas and an average of
over a do:'.on cars a week are shipped
from this city.
TO DOWN TAMMANY.
A Great Mass Msotlng field In the In
terest of Helorm*
New York. Sept. 8.—A great mass
meeting of citizens in opposition to
the Tammany hall was held last night
in the Madison Square Carden concert
hall. It was called by Gustavo II.
Schwab, IV. Bayard Cutting, Charles
S. Miles and others of the chamber of
commerce to inaugurate a citizens’
movement in opposition to Tamir.auy
A long address was road which de
plored the condition of the city under
the existing misrule and pledging
those present to active co-operation
with all other organizations in the
city, recognizing that only through
combined and well organized efforts
of all citizens could the defeat of Tam
many bo secured.
A motion was made to adopt the ad
dress if the platform of the meeting,
but Robert 11. Roosevelt obj -cted to
having a cut and dried resolution, lie
wanted organization first. Alfred R.
Conklin said they were already or
ganized. ‘‘The good government
clubs, tho German-American reform
unions and the Republicans, who are
100,000 strong, will join any indepen
dent movement to down Tammanv
hall.” J
On motion of Samuel P. Archibald,
the following resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That a committee of 100
be appointed by the chair with full
power to co-operate with other anti
Tammany organizations to further
the objects of this meeting as set
forth by the call therefor and the ad
dress just adopted.

Washington, Sept. 8 .—General Scho
field, acting seetretary of war has re
' ceived a cablegram from tho govern
ment of Japan inviting him to detail
an officer or officers of tho United
army to travel with its army and

TO HONOR ITS FOUNDER.
Pythlam will Erect a Monument to
Major Bathbone—The Crichton Case.
Washington, Sept. 8.—In the su
preme lodge of the Knights of Pythias
to-day a movement was started to
erect a monument to Major Rathbone,
the founder of the order, who is buried
a t Utica, N. Y. Washington lodges
will endeavor to raise a fund to pur
chase the hall which was the birth
place of the fraternity.
The supreme lodge to day set aside
the action of the supreme chancellor
and major general of the Uniform
Rank is dishonorably dismissing from
the rank Colonel W. D. Critcliton of
Fresno, Cal., on the ground that he
had not been given a hearing. This
action still leaves the case open for
the preferment of charges.
English Salt Is Free.
Washington, Sept 8.—The treasury
department yesterday, in a letter
in answer to an inquiry from the
Leroy Salt company, of Leroy, N. Y.,
says salt imported from England is
free from• duty under the new law,
inasmuch as England does not impose
a duty on salt imported into that
country from the United States. This
decision, however, does not apply to
Canada and some other English
dependencies.
Democrat! Stand by Their Deader*.
VYasiiikoton, Sept. 8.—The Demo*

advices that of the total nominations
made in districts now Democratic 131
are ronominations. Of these ninety

tious of present incumbents. Secre
tary Gardiner regards this as a high
percentage of renominations and con
siders that it indicates a high degree
of confidence in the present represen

Hr. Wilson's District.
Ei.kins, W. Va., Sept. 7.—The Re
publicans of the Second congressional
district never had as large a conven
tion as the one that yesterday nom
inated Alston Gordon Dayton of Bar
bour county, to run against Chair
man W. L. Wilson for congress. Ex
President Harrison arrived at 1 p. m.
by special train from Cumberland
and with his daughter, Mrs. McKee,
is the guest of ex-Secretary Elkins.
A committee was appointed to call
on the ex-president and invite him to
address the convention. When the
committee escorted the distinguished ,
visitor to the open air convention
there was a demonstration. Mr. Har
rison said:
"I came here to this beautiful val
ley of mountains to pay a visit to a
citizen with whom I have been very
pleasantly associated. It was not ex
pected I should be called upon to ad
dress any public body, but when in
vited I chose to.
“You are assembled to discharge
an important public duty, and I will
not. therefore, detain you with and
' speech. This district will be before
all eyes this autumn. This contest is
not local. It happens that your pres
ent representative has been assigned
to prepare the tariff bill and has at
tached his name to it. It is therefore
expected his conduct will be sub
jected to severe and careful scrutiny.
Fortunately the proclamation has
been made by President Cleveland
and Mr. Wilson that the tariff bill is
dot a finality, butthis estructive war
fare is to go on. If you approve this,
show it by returning Mr. Wilson to
congress, but if, on the other hand,
you have felt the effects of the de
pression; if you think more of those
who prefer to lead the country
through a slough of despondency,
show it by defeating him.
.“I can not say much of the last ad
ministration; delicacy forbids me to
say much of this, but if you consider
the heads of departments amd subor
dinate officers, you will see there was
an attempt to act for the best inter
ests of the people. I can not say how
we have succeeded, but only that we'
have done the best we could do. If
the people at elections this fall con
demn the recent action on the tariff
we shall have an end of tariff tinker
ings. When the tide of emigra
tion started from the sea-board
it turned to Ohio and the interior
valleys, but it is now toward
West Virginia. Now the- spring
of commerce is coursing through
our fertile valley. The pick and
shovel are busy. Is this a time
through the cheap ocean rates to
bring into competition with your pro
ducts the cheap coal of Nova Scotia?
I speak as a patriotic American who
feels an interest in the honest people.
To your judgment by the quiet No
vember firesides this question must
be settled, and may you have the
courage to do your duty. I thank you
for your attention and hope you will
speedily nominate the best man.”
The ex-president was received with
enthusiasm, and his brief speech
favorably commented on by the other
speakers. He was applauded at vari
ous points
KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS LAWS.
The Supreme Lodge Discusses the Pro
posed New Statutes.
Washington, Sept. 7.—The supreme
lodge, Knights of Pythias, devoted its
morning session to the discussion of
the proposed new statutes and adop
tion of a new system of transfer of
membership. Under former rules a
member taking a card of withdrawal
from a lodge ceased to be a member
of the order and was obliged to apply
for admission to another lodge on the
same terms as one who had never
been initiated. The new rules pro
vide that by paying dues for ninety
days a knight may retain his mem
bership in his old lodge unless ad
mitted to another lodge within that
time.
The reports of the committees fav
oring exclusion of liquor dealers from
future membership in the order and
the restraint of the German lodges
from performing tho ritual in their
language are ready for presentation,
but will probably not be considered
until late in the session. It is uode
stoqd the report upon several past su
preme chancellors recommends that
a committee be appointed to investi
gate the circumstances of the Indian
apolis meeting and if the action of
that meeting is found to constitute
disloyalty the past supreme chancel
lors who took part be disbarred from
participation in the proceedings of
the supreme lodge.
Cholerine In on Immigrant Car.
Pittsburo, Pa., Sept 7.—The emi
grant car from which a suspected vic
tim of cholera was taken at New
Cumberland, W. Va., last night, is
now sidetracked at Shauer station, a
few miles from here, with nine immi
grants confined in it Dr. J. Guy Mo
Candless, member of the state board
of health, and Health Officer Baker
examined the party to-day. They
think the man who died was suffering
from cholera morbus or cholerine.
CRAZED BY DISSIPATION.
Ths Wayward Son of nn Austrian Cab
bluet minister Sent to nn Asylum.
Chicago, Sept 7.—Anton von Karab,
formerly an officer in the Austrian
army and son of Count von Karab, a
member of the cabinet of the emperor
of Austria, was adjudged insane here
to-day and sent to an asylum. He
became dissipated and after marrying
the Countess von Lsnguar, was com
pelled to leave his native country be
oause of his waywardness. He had'
been in Chicago twelve years and his
insanity is thought to be the result of
his dissipation.
VILAS ON THE ISSUES.
*h« Wlaoonila Venator Makes a apoeeh
at Milwaukee,
Mil w atom, Win., Sept 7.—The
■tate Democratic convention was
called to order promptly at noon to
day by Chairman Wall, who announced
that Senator W. F. Vilas would be
temporary chairman. A roar of ap
plause followed this announcement
which was renewed when the senator
appeared on the stage. After a few
words of introduction, he dculared
that forebodings of the present disas
trous conditions were apparent as far
back as 1884, when President Arthur
appealed to Hugh McCulloch to take
charge of the treasury. Daniel Man
ning sacrificed his life to restore pros
perity, and his sacrifice brought about
a happy period in the nation and gave
to the Republicans in 1880 a rich in
heritance. Two years later the poli
cy of postponing payment of just
debts was inaugurated, and when the
Harrison administration closed the
treasury was a heavy burden.
The evils that had fallen upon the
country Mr. Vilas attributed to three
causes—tho Fifty-first or so-called
billion dollar congress with all its
misdeeds; its silver purchasing law;
its McKinley protection act, and its
unexampled extravaganoe, not only
indirect appropriation but in entail
ing future obligations yet to be dis
charged. The Cleveland administra
tion had expended 8878,395,110.8T ex
department and tho reduction of the
public debt; the Harrison administra
tion expended 81,202,542,771.30. This
was tho cnuso of the national distress
of 1893, for a nation could no more
squander its substance In riotous liv
ing- and escape tho penalty than any
prodigal spendthrift.
Mr. Vilus attacked the Sherman
silver purchase law, by which, he de
clared, the Western Republican silver
states wero furnished a customer at
the expense of the peoplo of the
whole country. The inevitable con
sequences followed. Tho government
was sot to work inflating and impair
ing tho currency of the country. Dis
trust crept into the channels of busi
ress; capitalists abroad quietly push
ed their American securities upon
the market, and gold began to make
its way to foreign lands. It was in
another form the triumph of green
backism. The silver dollar was made
a legal tender, yet silver continued to
decline in the market. A thousand
million dollars of silver certificates
had been issued which tho govern
ment practically bound itsoli to re
deem in gold because if it redeemed
them in silver it dropped the cur
rency at once to a basis of silver
monometalism, while their redemp
tion in gold would not only impose a
ruinous loss, but it was prnotleally
impossible.
Senator Vilas then reviewed at
length the difficulties that had been
placed in the way of repealing the
pernicious causes of the disasters by
the Republican minority in congress,
beginning with tho Sherman act,
down to the McKinley law. The in
come tax stood most acceptable among
its particular provisions and all men
were compelled to confess its justice.
The most grievous thing manifested
in the battle for tariff reform was the
power displayed by the trusts
and combinations — the natural
enemies of Democracy—and tho dis
covery of their hold upon some within
the ranks of the Democratic party. In
the salary list over 600 offices have been
abolished and 8700,000 annually saved
thereby, while the appropriations
were 828,835,089.70 less than those
made at the last session of the pre
ceding congress, and 850,555,491.78 less
than those of the last session of the
Fifty-first congress.
Senator Vilas then reviewed the
history of the Republican party to
show that it had long ago fulfilled
its mission of usefulness, and was now
merely a party of opposition without
any defined or controlling principle.
It was willing to consort with the
Populists of Alabama or the bigoted
A. P. A. of Wisconsin in the despera
tion of its decaying life.
WAITINQ ON CANDIDATES.
The Congressional Campaign Committees
Making; No Speaking Assignments.
Washington, Sept. 7.—The congres
sional campaign committees of both
parties are doing nothing in the way
of assignments of speakers in the
campaign unless appealed to by the
managers of the district. The candi
dates prefer to make their own ar
rangements, it is found. Whenever
an appeal is made for speakers from a
district, however, there will be a sup
ply furnished though there is no reg
ular supply arranged for such contin
gencies.
Comptroller ... H. Mansur of the
treasury went to West Virginia to
day to make a speech iu W. L. Wil
son’s behalf.
The campaign text books of both
parties are in type and will come from
the press in a few days. The Demo
cratic committee is circulating thou
sands of leaflets with extracts from
the Wool Trade Journal showing lb
creased prices for wool.
Dempsey and McCarthy Han an Inde
cisive Battle.
New Obleans, La., Sept. 7.—Jack
Dempsey and Billy McCarthy of
Australia fought a drawn battle last
night in the arena of the Auditorium
Athletic club before a large audience.
Both men were carefully trained and
entered the ring promptly at 9 o'clock,
followed by their seconds. Each re
ceived a fair share of applause, but
the greeting given to Dempsey clearly
showed that his friends were in the
majority. The contest was confined
to twenty rounds. John Duffy was
referee. The S3,000 purse was di
vided. 1

United States announcing the abso
lute supremacy of the apostolie dele
gate in church matters in the United
States, with the simple right of ap

A WOMAN’S CHARGES.
A STATEMENT PUT FORTH BY
MRS. CLASSBROOK.
What *ha Has to Sajr of Senator Stewart
—Sara the Dlatlngalshed Nevadian
Droned Her—Telia a Startling Story
of Her Relatlona With the Senator—
Gave Her Malaria Medicine Which Fat
Her to Sleep—Ho Wat Alwaya Affec
tionate and Tender to Her.
Washington, Sopt. 0.—Mrs. Carrie
Brady Glusscock, tho defendant to
the divorce suit in which Senator
Stewart of Nevada,, is the co-respond
ent, has written » statement of her
side of the case for the Raleigh, N. C.,
Nows and Observer. She gives in de
tail the story of her alleged relations
with the Nevada senator, beginning
with her office-seeking attempts in
Washington and of the senator prom
ising her a position and loaning her
monoy when the position hud not
been obtained. Her statement, after
narrating the senator's absence from
the city, then goes on as follows:
“He (Senator Stewart) was very
cordial and friendly, oven fatherly
toward me. His venerable face pre
vented his demonstrations of uffeo
tion from being as offensive as they
otherwise would have been. Ho
seated me on his sofa and inquired
after my health. As I was still
afflicted with malaria he said he had a
sure remedy, which he took himself.
Hu made up a dose in a glass and gave
It to me to drink. It put me to sleep.
When I came to myself I found he
had taken advantage of me. I ac
cused him of his crime and started to
leave the offloe. Ho pleaded with mo
not to make a scene, that he had a
family at home; that he had
been overcome with his attach
ment for me; that he had
obliged mo bo long; had worked
so hard to get me a position; hud
given ino money when my family was
sick and I was in grout distress; that
I ought not to do him the great in
jury of exposure. He assured mo
lie had cortain and immediate pros
pects of receiving u permanent posi
tion for me with a large salary, which
would place mo and my children in
comfort and beyond all want in the
future. His promises and flattery
finally overcame my indignation and I
consented to accept the position he
was soon to have ready for me.
“When I called again to receive tho
appointment it was not ready, but his
promises and flattery were. Ho had
now acquired power over mo, as I had
not exposed him, he could expose mo,
besides I owed him monoy I could not
pay.”
Then follows details of money paid,
prom isos to obtain the position and
frequent calls at the senator’s office.
“One of his bank cheeks," Mrs. Glass
cock says, “which was found in my
pocket by my husband, aroused his
suspicions, and then he followed me
when I went out and had others watch
me. He met me soon afterward com
ing out of the senator's room. He
created a stormy scene with me and I
realized the great shadows into which
I had been loud, and life no longer
appeared worth living, and but
for my children I think I would
have drowned myself.”
Mrs. Glasscock then narrates the
bringing of a suit for divorce by her
husband and her fruitless appeals to
Senator Stewart for relief for herself
and family.
Senator Stewart was seen concern
ing the statements of Mrs. Glasscock,
but beyond reiterating tho charge
that the husband and wife were try
ing to extort money from him and to
blackmail him, he would say nothing.
The case, he said, was in court and
ho would make no further statement
before the coming trial.
CONFER V/ITH CARLISLE.
Drajiliti Have a Talk With the Seen*
tarjr on the Alcohol Sohednle.
Washington, Sept. 0.—Yesterday a
number of gentlemen representing
the National Wholesale Druggists'
association held a conference with
Secretary Carlisle and Commissioner
Miller of the internal revenue bureau
on the free alcohol section of the new
tariff bill.
Secretary Carlisle explained the di
lemma in which he and Mr. Miller
found themselves. The law was a
mere skeleton, without money or ma
chinery to put it into operatiou, nor
could the department employ agents
to be paid by the manufacturers, the
statutes expressly prohibiting it Al
together he could not see how it
was possible to enforce the law
without any supervision and
this would, no doubt, lead
to unlimited fraud. Then again, it
was a very perplexing and difficult
thing, th'e secretary said, to deter
mine just what construction should
be put upon the words, “the arts,”
“medicinal preparations’’ and “other
like compounds.’’ There was likely
to be a very great difference of opin
ion on this subject. He, however,
would be glad of any aid the whole
sale druggists or any one else could
give him.
Mr. Carlisle’s explanation, most of
the members of the delegation
thought, rendered any further talk
unnecessary. They were frank to
admit that they saw no way out of
the difficulty except to let the matter
go over to the Lext session of con
gress. At the unanimous request of
the delegation the secretary will hold
the matter open for a few days to en
able the members of the association
to present their views._
A reward of 9100 has been offered
for the discovery of President Ken
nedy of Amity college at College City,
Iowa, who mysteriously disappeared a
month ago.

Charlotte Augusta Drayton, daughter
of VVHllam Astor, of the family of
which John Jacob Astor was the foun
der, upon the statutory grounds, Hal
let Allsop liorrowe, who in March,
1803, was challenged to a duel by
Drayton, being named as the co-res
pondent. The bill charges that on
different dates in January, February,
March, April, May, June, July, August
and September, 1801, Mrs. Drayton
disregarded the solemnity and sancti

rowe as hor partnor. The places
where the offenses took place are1
flvon as at "The Palleto" and at 374
‘iftli avenue, in Now York city, in
February, 1801, at the liernardvllle
ylauem at various times between ,
anuury 1801, and October, 1801, and
at the Terminus hotel at King’* Cross,
London, known as St Pancras’ Mid
land hotel, botween January 0 and
January 30, 1803.
Mr. Drayton's complaint shows that
four children wore born of the mar
riage, which took place Ootobor 80,
18T0, at the rcsidunuo of William
Astor, 850 Fifth avenue—Caroline
Astor, Henry Coleman, William Astor
and Adda Livingstone. Since the
separation the chlldron hare been in
the care of Mr. Drayton. He asks
for their custody.
If no answer be filed before to-mor
row, then the case will be sent to a
