TIomiS, March ! 4.—Out of the storm of popular anger which spread over Ita’.V when the news of the defeat of the army under General Baratieri in Abyssinia reached here, a feeling1 of great resentment toward the Italian commander is all that remains. Riot ing1 I'ls ceased. The Reservists who tied from the country rather than go to Africa at the call of the government for the class of 137:2, are retnrning, and it is not believed any steps will be taken to pnnish them. Negotiations with Kink Menelik have been opened, so it is anticipated that peace will bo concluded before long, and the war office has countermanded the instruct ions sent to various points for the hur rying forward of reinforcements to Africa. The new cabinet is at work and the financial situation is brighter than anticipated. Conferences which have taken place here between the Marquis di Rudini, the new premier, the Duke of Sermon eta and King Humbert, and the con stant exchange of telegraphic mes sages between this city and Berlin, have been coincident with the meet ings in Berlin of the Austrian minis ter of foreign affairs. Count Uolu chowski, the German foreign minis ter, liaron Marschall von Bieberstein, tlie Italian ambassador to Germany, Count Lanza di Buseu. and the im pel in! chancellor, Prince liolienlohe, supplemented by audiences with Em peror William. Out of these exchanges of views has grown a much healthier state of affairs for all Kurope. An Italian loan, it is stated, could not have been floated in London and the half-pledged support ot 'Great Britain to the dreibund,a sup port hitherto involving little else than an irritating uncertainty 4s ru mored to have developed into a much jiiui*.; coriuui arm suici unaersyina ing with the powers forining*the dreil.und. Both Emperor Francis Joseph and Emperor William have striven to relieve the strain here, and now comes the report that Emperor William of Germany, Emperor Francis Joseoh of Austria, and King Humbert will meet at Genoa in a few days and that a series of .brilliant fetes will mark this public proof of the renewal of the lies which compose the drei bund,, which is intended to demon strate to all whom it may concern that Italy, instead of being friendless, upon the verge of bankruptcy and en cumbered by a tottering throne, is strong in the earnest support of Ger many and Austria and will be backed by Great Britain in any great emer gency. 1‘inally, it is stated that before the emperors meet at Genoa, Emperor Fr.. neis Joseph will have succeeded in rev. oiling Queen Victoria with her lnrc.' r.i grandson, and so the peace of l.cuv, o. it is hoped, will be further cemented and the possibility of a European war will be driven further to tiie background. All messages from Africa tend to confirm the most alarming reports as to the exlentof the disaster at Adov.ah, and although Hie ollioial figures have not yet been made public it is admitted that ever r.’JtOO men were killed, wounded, or made prisoners. Jt is believed that the loss of Abyssinians was almost as great. The Abyssinians captured almost all the Italian artil lery. ammunition and supplies. General Baratieri, however, repeats t hat the disaster, though unavoidable under tiie circumstances, was not due to any desire to strike a big blow be fore the arrival from Italy of his suc cessor, General Ualdissera. He claims that, the plan of battle was carefully mapped out between himself and his generals, that all the latter approved it. and that it would have succeeded had it not been fi r the fact that the native troops under tlie Italian flag became panic stricken and so brought about the complete defeat of the Italian forces. Disinterested judges still hold that the real cause of. the defeat of the Italians is to be found in the almost wi curium IlCWSJJct pers nt this city and other parts of Italy at the alleged inaction of Ueu cral Baratieria. These apparently un just. comments upon his conduct of the cumpa'gn seem to have goaded him to push forward when good gen eralship would have avoided such a step "If he had only waited for It is rein forcements,'’ say his friends. And this seems to be the key to trie whole trnu tile. lieucral ilaratieri has arrived at Massowah. He is prostrated over his defeat. He deeply deplored the dis aster, but bad nothing to reproach himsolf with, and was ready to meet any charges and to endure the conse quences of his inisftytune. A Uoaiun Tramp Locki'd in a IJox Car.

Washington, March In.— Hugh Cam eron of Lawrence, Kan., by proxj held the Semite's interest this after noon with a decree of appreciation niv.1 amusement not often exhibited. Senator Peffer presented a petition from Mr. Cameron and although the rules of the Setia'e require that sueli mattero shall be read by title only, this petition excited an interest which could be satiated only by reading1 in extenso. ‘ 0 The petition runs: “To the Congress of the United States of America: Your petitioner, the undersigned, re spectfully asksyour honoroable bodies to make the 5th of April a national holiday, it being the day on which the King of the dews, whom Pontius lhlate caused to be crucified April 3, A. D. 311, achieved his splendid victory over tlie grave. “This King of the Jews lias always been a true friend of the United States of America. He was with Washing ton and his compatriots during their great struggle for independence, and was also with the Union army through the entire war to maintain that inde pendence with union and liberty. “Unquestionably this King has done more to establish and maintain free government on this continent and to make the United States of America a respectable nation than any other king; and so we as individuals and as nation ought not to be ashamed with frankness and alacrity to ac knowledge that we owe Him a debt of gratitude which we will never be fully able to liquidate. “For all these and many other ob vious reasons, the undersigned hopes that your honorable bodies will, with out delay, make resurrection clay a national holiday, for which we will continually pray.” The resolution went to the commit tee on judiciary.

STILL TALKING CUBA INTEREST IN THE SUBJECT CONTINUES IN THE SENATE. Senator Hill of Now York Against the Conference Report Resolutions—Sher man Eulogizes the President—Declare*# No One Doubts Ills Courage a ml Fidel ity to Our Country's Flag:. Cuban Matters In the Senate. Washington, March 13.—There Is no abatement of public interest in the Cuban debate in the Senate as is evinced by the large crowds which continue to fill the galleries to their full capacity. After an hour was consumed in clearing away routine matters, the Cuban resolutions were laid before the Senate and Mr. Hill of New York was recognized. He was given marked attention and in opening said he would vote against the conference report and would confine his remarks mainly to an explanation of his rea sons therefor, lie pointed out that this being a conference report, the resolutions could not be amended. He would, therefore, vote against the re port,that at a subsequent time amend ments might be made. The senator objected to the third clause of the resolutions, which states that the United States has not inter vened in the struggles between any European governments and their col onies, but owing to the proximity of Cuba, tho United States should be prepared to intervene. This he de clared to be ambiguous and unmean ing. Wo had intervened in such controversies. We had intervened and recognized tho countries which had beeu colonies of Spain. The phrase “the United States should be prepared to protect the legitimate interests of our citizens by intervention,” sounded like a threat, or it was buncomb. ‘ If this resolution means that we. should increase our army, let us say so frankly, and frame a‘ bill for that purpose,” said Mr. Hill. “If it means we should increase our navy, let us s ate it frankly and fearlessly and trame a bill to that end. Let us not indulge in idle boasts and threats and doubtful phrases as to our being pre pared 10 protect legitimate interests Acs o’clock there was a contest for precedence between the Cuban resolu tions aud the Dupont election case, whi ;n was settled by laying' aside the L'upont case, while 'Senator Sherman addressed the Senate in support of the Cuban resolutions. Mr. Sherinau discussed at length the character of the resolutions and the conditions existing in Cuba. It was not best to send joint resolutions to the President, as it would compel his action in ten days, and this was not judicious. He had confidence in the President. There were political differences between them, but, he added, “No one doubts his courage; no one doubts his fidelity to the flag’of our country.” ° Mr. Sherman referred to General Weyter as a butcher and said the con ditions in Cuba were flagrant. “If war docs not exist in Cuba,” he fcnid. “where outside of hell does it exist-?” Speaking of the demand for facts, he said that Senator l.odge had ob tained from Secretary Gluey ample facts to justify the resolutions, but for obvious reasons these could not be made public. At the conclusion of Mr. Sherman’s speech the Dupont case was taken up and Mr. Pritchard of North Carolina addressed the Senate in favor of seat ing Air. Dupont. A CUBAN OFFICER TALKS. Colonel Peres ot Maceo's Staff Say* lib erty la at Hand. New York, March i 3.—Colonel Fred erico O. Perez, chief of staff of Gen eral Macco of Cuba, is in the city on a secret mission. Ho will return to Cuba in a few days. In an interview last nicht he said: “Y\ hen I left Cuba General Gomez and General Maeeo were satisfied with the existing conditions. The raid through the central provinces has been pro ductive of good results. The Cubans gained arms, ammunition and men. In the eastern part of the island over 1,000 Spanish regulars have deserted to the Cubans. Maeeo and Gomez now have an army of about 25,000 men in the central provinces. The Cubans have throughout the island about 00,000 armed men and about 40, 000 partially armed. Of the armed men about one-third are cavalrymen, who have plenty of good horses. The Spanish mounted infantry are no match for them. Since General Wey ler took control the Spaniards have done nothing. 1 was in the ten years’ war and saw the Spaniards fight like demons. Now they seem to have no heart for their work. They appear to be very much demoralized on account, of the movements of the American , Congress.” MELVILLE SALTER DEAD. He Was a Prominent Kansas Politician and Was Twice Lieutenant Governor. Foist Scott, Kan., March 13.—An ex-lieutenant governor of Kansas, Melville J.

CHEERS AND HISSES. flearing of Advocates and Opponents of God In llie Constitution. Washington, March 13.—Speeches score listened to yesterday by the House judiciary committee from large delegations of clergymen and others who advocate r.ud antagonize the bill introduced by lleprescntativo Morse of Massachusetts to place the name of Hod iu the constitution of the United States. The meeting was somewhat novel in its character, a majority of the spectators being women. An American Hag was brought into the committee room by the opponents of the bill, in which was tied a great bundle of protests and remonstrances forwarded by various organizations. Kaeh faction was given an hour to i present its side of the question. Con siderable feeling was manifested by the partisans on both sides of the question, and hisses and cheers fre quently interrupted the speakers. GOULDS AVOID TAXATION. ' They Successfully riead Non-It cs I deuce | With Reference to an Assessment, i New York, March 13.—The Goulds | will not be compelled to pay the taxes i on $1C,500,000, which were assessed in this city for the year 1S95. Five suits were filed against the estate of Jay Gould and his sons and daughters to enforce the finding of the commis sioners of taxes and assessments. The defendants pleaded non-residence. When the case against George J. Gould came up for hearing before Judge Fryor in the special term of the supreme court to-day, the corpor | ation counsel's representative an [ nouneed that it had been determined to abnndon the suits on the ground that the defendants could establish the plea of non-residence. Judge Fryor thereupon gave a judgment va cating the assessments. Error* in the World'* Fair Ode. New York, March 13.— Judge La combo in the United States circuit court of appeals has affirmed the judg ment of the circuit court for tho east ern district of New York, awarding Miss Harriet Monroe of Chicago $5,000 damages against the Press Publishing company of this city. The suit was the outgrowth of the premature publica tion in the New York World of thn ode which Miss Monroe had written for the dedication cerinonies of the World's Columbian exposition in 1893. It was alleged by the complainant in this action that certain errors which appeared in the unauthorized publication of her ode were damaging to her reputation as a writer. Miss Monroe obtained a verdict in the Cir cuit court in December, 1894. Keed’s Kecorrt for Economy. Washington, March 13.—Speaker Tom Deed appears to be succeeding very well in his effort to make this a business congress, to hold the House down to the passage of appropriation | bills and to defeat everything else. Probably at no previous congress has so little genuiuo legislation been en acted. The vast majority of all the bills, resolutions, petitions and other documents tliatdiave been introduced are lying forgotten in the committees, and no legislation to speak of is even considered. It looks very much now as if the speaker and his lieutenants will have the House ready for ad journment on May 15, when they in tend to go home, regardless of what the Senate may be able or willing to do. Vest Presents a Pension Plea. Washington, March 13.—Mr. Vest presented to the Senate this afternoon the petition originating at n meeting of the enrolled Missouri militia, held at Uallatin, Mo., March 7, praying for the passage of a general law grant ing to all soldiers of the late war, in cluding the enrolled Missouri militia and all who were in the six months service who served ninety days, and to the widows and orphans of the dead, a pension of $8 a month. To Keep Vital Facta From Foreigner*. Washington, March 13.—It is prob able that instructions will go to the commandants of all military posts to be more careful in the matter of admissions to the posts hereafter, and in future there will be a more cautious editing of the matter that is published in official reports of army officers and given to the public. The object is to guard against the obtaining by for eigners of knowledge of United States resources and methods. After Many Years. South McAeester, I.

IlrltUb Have No Case. T.oniion, March 1C.—The Chronicle lias a second long article, following up its critical examination of the con tents of the Venezuelan blue book. The Chronicle contends that the very documents which are quoted to sup port the Hritish case disprove the British claim based on the Dutch pos sessions and occupation in the eight eenth century. It fears that the entire case is vitiated by the assumption that roving descents by the Dutch on the coast and inland rivers for slave trade purposes constitute an effective occu pation.

OR tventy-flve years we have been raising poultry of eomo kind. How ever, I have not been engaged ex clusively in that line, but have kept the breeds pure for fancy. I have handled at various times Liigni tsran fflas, Buff Cochins, Sliver Laced Wyandottes, Red and White Leghorns and Barred Plymouth Rocks. The Barred Plymouth Rock 1b the best all around chicken we have tried. It is quiet, matures early and is a good layer of good sized eggs. Wyandottes come next. In the winter they are housed, but in the summer they take to the apple trees for roosting. We think they are healthier this way. We feed corn at night and wheat in the morning; they also get some lime, boiled potatoes and so on for change. We are feeding at this time cooked ap ples mixed with ground wheat, pur market is St. Louis. It is usually glut ted with poultry and eggs, great quan tities of which come from the South and West. We see by the market reports that the market in Chicago is much better all the time than it is in St. Louis. In winter we get a fair supply of eggs, but do not make a specialty of winter eggs. We seldom lose fowls from disease, lice or predatory animals. We have always adhered to the hen while brooding, and have been as suc cessful as we expected to be. The main point is to give the broods good care while they are young. We have never tried doctoring poul try. If a chicken is seen to be ailing we cut off its head. We use crude carbolic acid in the drinking water. White Leghorns are best for eggs and early maturity, but I had to discard them on account of their flying into my hot beds, as the products of my hotbeds bring me much of my returns for work. We believe that the Cochins or feathery -_ft who would otherwise hare to consider ably Increase the amount usually paid for foods purchased; and it drought were to follow In sumner this amount would be still further increased, thus reducing the profit derived from tho dairy herd and other classes of livo slock on the farm. A Silage is about the best basis for ■ forming a ration for all kinds of farm stock that the stock-owner could wish for, as it supplies the place of grass in the winter food of stock, and can partly, or entirely, replace roots and hay. It would not be necessary to reduce the area under crops or pasture, but slm ply to reduce the area of meadow land and . grow leguminous crops Instead. Thd food supply would he thus in creased, and a reserve supply provided In case of drought or failure of crops. Silage would be given in the long state, thus dispensing with long hay or straw, and both sweet and sour silage could be made. Sweet silage would be used for all classes of breeding stock and sour silage for all classes of store and fat tening stock, and either kind, when properly made, will keep for years. Silage Increases the quantity of milk when given with discretion, and butter from cows fed on good silage has the quality, color and flavor that pertain to It in summer. By practising this system of ensiling fodder crops, the clay-land fanner Is able to provide winter food tor his stock on land otherwise requiring to be left fallow in summer; and the Ught-land farmer is able to winter a larger sheep stock when he is solely dependent upon his root crop for food.—The Dairy, (London, England). Black Spotted Freiburg Cattla> This is a Swiss breeu. The Dnlte4 ~ States consular report says of it: There are several off-shoot breeds de- ,® rived from the pure Bernese, known as the Freiburg, tho Frutiger, the Illlez. and Ormond breeds, but they are all H more or less inferior to the pure original race. As a principle, cross-breeding has failed In Switzerland, and the best results have always been obtained from in-breedlng from the pure original stock. Of these minor spotted breeds, the only one that deserves notice here is the Freiburg, which originated In the can ton of that name, and is still bred ,fj§ there in great purity, although even there it is gradually giving way in the best herds to the light colored Saanen and Simmenthal variety. BLACK SPOTTED FREIBURG BULL* legged fowls have no business on a farm. Their feathers are a great nui 'sance in muddy times. On town lota they may be all right. The Egyptian Poultry association of Southern Illinois held their second an nual show in Marissa late in Decem ber. They had a grand show of poultry. There were 646 birds exhibited. Among them were three Buff Cochins from England of past year’s hatch. Mr. Hem lich, of Litchfield, Illinois, was judge. —J. B. Matthews in Farmers’ Review. How to tVIn K((S«. Every poultry keeper now wants eggs, because they are scarce and bring a good price. Of course it is impossible to get as many eggs at this season as in summer, simply for the reason that winter and cold weather are not the natural times for birds to lay, but yet, given good stocks and conditious as nearly approaching summer as may be, and the hens will prove fairly prolific. A warm, light, sunny coop is very es sential. The house must be snug, yet have ventilators that may be opened in mild weathpr, for bad air is a very had thing indeed for any species of animal life. Be sure also the coop is dry. A damp house means colds, roup, and no prom, urain is cneap, so lead toe Dest and a variety also. A good morning mash is mad' as follows: Take 4 parts bran, 4 parts ground oats, 3 parts corn meal, and 1 part linseed meal. Then combine with the grain mixture just as much boiled potatoes, turnips, or car rots as you use of grain. Mix all in boiling water, salt and pepper lightly, and finally add a little meat scraps or green cut bone. This makes a royal winter's breakfast for poultry and will bring the eggs if anything will. Scat ter a few handfuls of whole wheat and oats about the coop a few times a day to keep the hens scratching. Feed lightly on whole corn at night. Remem ber a cabbage once in a while.—W. P. Perkins in Farmers’ Review. English View of Silage. To obtain a supply of suitable food all the year round is not always an easy matter; therefore, a few suggestions on this important subject may be useful to dairy farmers who plan out in their minds a possible food supply to carry their stock through another year. Ow ing to unforeseen events taking place which may seriously reduce the amount of food expected on the arable land, it is certainly advisable to have a reserve supply of food rAdy for use at all sea sons of the year. In the case of a late , spring, a supply of silage will be fonnC I of great service to the dairy farmer The distinctive mark of the Freiburg cattle Is found in the fact that their spots are black. Many examples are seen in which the entire animal ia black, except perhaps the head and a stripe under the belly. It la fully as heavy as its Bernese rival, but has , larger, heavier bones, coarser flesh, and is in other respects inferior to it in the technical points that characterize a per fect stock. As working animals and as milkers the Frelburgers rank next to the Bernese. Poorly Supplied Creameries, We receive a great many complaints from farmers where new creameries have been established. In most in stances the creameries are not to blame. The farmers have not yet furnished the conditions whereby they can make the most profit out of the creamery. They are furnishing half the amount of milk they should furnish. There are thousands of farmers with 200 acres of land, who are keeping not more than 10 or 15 cows. The making of the milk from these few cows costs them nearly double per pound what it would if they made four times a3 much. Then they blame the creamery for not giving them a better profit. They say the creamery is charging too much for the making of the butter; when it is hard to see how me creamery can live witn tne small amount o{ business there is to be done. There are thousands of these no-profit creameries all over the land. The farm ers about them keep two acres to do the work of one, and two cows to produce what one cow should produce. Every thing in and about that creamery is marked by a lack of good, intelligent, dairy sense. How can such men expect figs from thistles, or profits from ig norance of sound dairy conditions?— Hoard’s Dairyman. Dairy Instruction at LsnHlQ[, Last week a representative of the Farmers’ Review visited the fticbigan Agricultural College at Lansing. The college is certainly doing a great work ■ in its various branches, but the appli ances for dairy instruction are very lim ited. The dairy students certainly do not have a fair show under such condi tions. There is no branch of agricul tural science more needful than that of . the dairy, and it seems a great mistake not to at once enlarge this department of the college. It may be that some ^ plan is on foot to better matters, hut * if so we have not heard of it. The pro fessors that have the control of the dairy work there must rnbor under great disadvantages. We can only hope that conditions will soon change, tor th%.' 1 better, • '-’v
