Omaha, Neb., Nov. 15. The growth of the beet sugar industry in this state has attracted the attention of the sugar trust, which has already taken steps to prevent the sale of Nebraska sugar. Jobbers and dealers have been notified that if they sell the refined product of Nebraska factories the trust will decline to sell them the cheaper grades, which are not manufac tured ty the Oxnards. The result of this is that over $100,000 worth of Nebraska made sugar is stored in warehouses in Umaha. ine matter nas Deen laia De- fare the Manufacturers ana Loninm- f - ers' Association and efforts are being made to get estern -jobbers to agree to handle the Nebraska product re 5'nrdless of consequences. There is a I strong" home patronage sentiment in the State, which will, it is said, favor i the Nebraska sugar makers in the fight- It is estimated that the year's output of the Grand Island and Nor folk sug-ar factories will reach, if not exceed, a value of SsOO.OOO, or nearly one-third of the total amount con sumed in the State. INCALLS ON ALLISON. The Ex-$eaator Speaks Warmlr of the Iowa Presidential Aspirant. Ckdak Rapids, Iowa, Nov. 15. Ex Senator John J. Ingalls of Kansas, who arrived here last evening, said: "I am much gratified with the result of the late elections. They indicate very clearly the returning tide of Re publican supremacy, which means an - jra of remarkable business prosperity. I My own state is steadily returning to the Republican fold. I think there is no question but that Kansas will elect Republican electors next year. We have fusion to light, but the Republic ans are now strong enough to defeat the combined opposition." Mr. Ingalls said that the people of Kansas felt very cordially toward Mr. a Allison. "Of course I" cannot say what they will do in the national con vention, but there is no doubt but Kansas is in favor of a Western man. I have known Senator Allison person ally and intimately for many years. He nndoubtedly has a most intimate acquaintance with all the various affairs cf government, and a most happy faculty of using his information im shaping legislation for the public pood. I regard him as one of the best equipped public men for any position in public life. He would make an admirable President, and under his wise and conservative adminis tration the country would be prosperous, and business interests would have no fears of sudden or rad ical changes. As a statesman Senator Allison is the peer of any man in pub lic life. lie is thoroughly honest, and his personal and moral standing is without a question. While Allison has not the personal and enthusiastic following of McKinley or Reed, yet he has the power of conservatism and is liked by the followers of both. Mr. Allison has been in Congress for over thirty years, and has never made an enemy; a most remarkable record, and one that will serve him well in the contest next vear A JUROR BECOMES INSANE. The Second Trial of Alleged Train Wrecker Davis Ended Suddenly. Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 15. The second trial of George Wr. Davis, the negro charged with causing eleven deaths in the Rock Island railroad wreck, Au gust 9, 1S&4. came to an end yesterday, when C B. Yates, a juror, became suddenly insane and, , leaping out of a window, ran five blocks to the county jail, where he implored the sheriff to protect him from some par ties who, he said, were trying to poison him. Yates was taken to the hospital where a commission of doctors ap pointed by the court examined him and pronounced it only a temporary attack, but said that he would be unable to resume his duties as a juror. The other jurors were thereupon dis charged and a special venire called for. 7 The first trial, which resulted in a disagreement, cost the county $10,000, and the second trial was about half finished. Brooding over the case is thought to be the cause of Yates' in sanitv. SCHLATTER DISAPPEARS. The So-Called Messianic Healer Flees From Denver to Escape the Law. Denver, Cola, Nov. 15. Francis Schlatter, the so-called Messianic healer, disappeared last night and a warrant for his arrest has been issued from the United States court. He had been summoned to appear before the United States Commissioner to-day as a witness against persons arrested on a charge of using the maiJjs to defraud by pretending to sell htindkerchiefs blessed by him. The accused claim thai they can prove that Schlatter really blessed a bale of handkerchiefs for them, and in that case he was lia ble to indictment. , Schlatter left .a note simply saying: "My mission in Denver is ended. Good bve." Over 3,000 people assembled this morning expecting to receive treat ment from Schlatter. Richard Kowe Back In Iowa. Grinnexx, Iowa, Nov. 15. A de tective arrived from Mexico this morn ing with Richard Rowe, charged with complicity in Chester Rowe's embez zlement cf 538,000 of county money while treasurer. He was arrested July 19, but only extradited last week. v " r Boy Given Forty Bays for a Mnrder. " Fort Worth, Texas, Nov. IS. At Wichita Falls the jury in the murder casa of young Ilarley Heath found him guilty and fixed the penalty at forty days' imprisonment in the county jail -and $500 fine. Young Heath killed schoolmate named Hubert Oflie. knights of labor, ; Master Workman Sovereign Score the Money Power Ills Annual Address. Washington, Nov. 15. In his an nual address to the Knights of Labor convention here yes terday. General Master Workman Sovereign among other things said: "Labor is now between the devil and the deep sea," he continued. "Capital has monopolized the ele ments of production, and labor is in competition with itself for the right to live, "Money oligarchy is fast wiping out the last vestige of individual liberty. Construction by judicial authority is already given to law, placing all labor organizations in the category of crim inal conspiracies. Misdemeanors of the most trivial character have been raised to felony without sanction of law and used to imprison representa tives of labor organizations, and in junctions, followed by charges of con tempt, have been used to condemn labor leaders to the felon's cell with out evidence of guilt or trial by jury. The associated banks have declared war on the money of the people, and the whole plutocratic fraternity has invaded the realm of free government and constitutional security." He made some suggestions as to the methods of strengthening the order, but the principal feature of the ad dress was his appeal to the general assembly to give to his recent order boycotting national bank notes its official sanction, lie denounced the action of the bankers' convention held at Atlanta, and said: "After carefully reviewing the wreck aDd ruin wrought by the money power and the designs of the sound money clubs, which pro pose bonds and Galling guns for a so lution of the labor question, I issued a boycott on the notes of national banks, and if I were to die to-morrow I would declare it the most r ghteous act of my life. "It exposed the unsound money of the sound money advocates, threw plutocracy on the defensive and forced the national banks into a humiliating confession of their preposterous acts of bad faith with the people; and now I urge this general assembly to in dorse that boycott and give it every possible force of official sanction. The conflict between the working people and the idle holders of idle capital is inevitable. The wealth of the many is gravitating to the few with increas ing ratio and labor is drifting toward serfdom faster than ever before, CHRISTIAN REFORM. A National Convention of All Associa tions Called for Baltimore. Pittsburg, Pa., Nov. 15. Felix R. Brunot, president of the National Re form association, has issued a call for a meeting of that body iu the North Avenue Baptist church, Baltimore, Deeember 12 and 13. The object will be to "consider the vital issues of the hour to promote all wise measures of reform and seek such an amendment to the constitution of the United States as will suitably acknowledge God, the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ and the supremacy of his law over . the nation." All Christian churches, societies of Christian En deavor and other young people's un ions. Women's Christian Temperance unions and all kindred organizations are invited to send delegates BERING SEA CLAIMS. Premier Salisbury Believes the United States Will Tet Render Justice. London, Nov. 15. The correspon dence of the British government with Sir Julian Pauncefote, British ambas sador to the United States, upon the question of the Bering sea compensa tion from May, 1894, to August, 1895, was issued last night. In the last letter, dated August 13, Lord Salisbury, the prime minister, closed a lengthy memorandum, setting out at greater length some of the points supporting the British claim, writing: "The arguments you ad vance to support our claims have the entire approval and concurrence of the government. The attempt made by Senator John T. Morgan of Ala bama, chairman of the Senate com mittee on foreign relations, to dispute them seem3 largely founded on misap prehension, and the government can not doubt when the facts are placed before th3 public of the United States, the liability of the United States to make compensation which nas never been denied by the government, and will generally be recognized, both in and outside of Congress." Herring; Wins 11 is Suit. London. Nov. 15. A verdict for $15,000 in favor of the plaintiff was rendered to-day in the suit brought by Dr. Conyers Herring or JNew xorlc lor the recovery of insurance money on his yacht Mohican. It is the doctor's intention to bring suit against other companies in which his yacnt was in sured for the recovery of an addi tional $10.000. School Girls in a Fight. Laenkd, Kan., Nov. 15. Two 16-year-old girls, Emma Manderschied and Flora Campbell, who were attend ing school a few miles east of here, quarreled yesterday, when the former threw the latter backward over a desk and pounded her in the abdomen, in flicting injuries which may prove fatal. The Manderschied girl has been ar rested. Castellane's Bad Beals. London, Nov. 15.

THERE IS NEED OF ITS IM PROVEMENT, General Miles Says Any Foreign Nary Can Blockade Oar Ports in Ninety Days Absolute Importance of Defense of the Entire Pacific Coast Argument for An Increase of the strength of the Army In Proportion to the Country's Growth. We Are Defenseless. Washington, Nov. 13. In his an nual report General Miles, com manding tle army, states that the condition of our sea coast de fenses is such as to require de cided and immediate action for their improvement. The unguarded condi tion of our coast is known by every first-class power.andour people should not be led into false security. He quotes from his report of 18S4 a strong argument for the defense of Puget sound, shows that since that time new Canadian railroads have been estab lished there, yet not a single gun has been placed in position for defense, while those at the entrance of the Co lumbia river are obsolete and of little value. General Miles recalls what he said in his report of 18S9 upon the absolute importance of the defense of the en tire Pacific coast, in view of the fact that it was possible for any naval power to blockade every important port within ninety days, while it would take many years to make a suc cessful resistance, and the country might be required to pay an indemnity of S5,000, 000,000. While the railroads might transport 1,000,000 brave men to the coast, they would be useless with out appliances to cope with the mod ern engines of war, and with all our intelligence, pride, inventive genius and enterprise, we are as far behind in the modern appliances oi war as China or Japan. Such were the conditions six years ago, says General Miles, and such are the conditions to-day, with the exception of the slight progress made at San Francisco. The entire Gulf coast and all the great cities of the Atlantic coast northward to Phila delphia are entirely without modern guns. Therefore, he strongly recommends the construction of all the high power guns and system of defenses called for in the general plan of the board of ordnance and fortifications and other boards, and to meet in part the ex pense of this costly undertaking he suggests the application of the funds that might be derived from the sale of abandoned military reservations. To man these guns he asks an increase of the artillery arm, with the provision of barracks at Fort Hancock, N. Y., for the accommodation of the troops, and the systematic detail of subaltern officers for instruction in rotation in this place. General Miles argues for an increase in the strength of the army, saying that there is no reason why it should become crystallized and kept at one strength, as it has been for years. It should increase with the growth of the country and be determined by the census at a minimum of one sol dier for every 2,000 population and a maximum of one in 1,000. THE CUBAN ISSUE. Belief That the President Will Recom mend Recognition of Belligerency. Washington, Nov. 13. Secretary Olney is said to feel more encouraged than at any time since he began to talk to the President about the justice and desirability of some interference in Cuban affairs. For quite a time the President has been in a hesitating mood. He thought of sending some body to make an investigation, just as he did regarding Hawaiian affairs, but Mr. Olney pointed out that such a step would be in an indirect way a recognition of the revolution ists, and that the United States might as well act directly and promptly. The representatives of the revolution ists are elated over the information that the President is inclined to do something. They are very confident that his message to Congress will be much more radical than his recent apparent indifference would indicate. Recognition of the insurgents' gov ernment will be recommended, they think. ANTI-TOXIN FOR MISSOURI The State University Begins the Culti vation of the Needed Germs. Columbia, Mo., Nov. IS. The bac teriological labratory apparatus of the State University is nearly all in place and is the best in the West. It is in the museum building and cost 2,000. Dr. Graham, who is professor of bac teriology and in charge of the labra tory, has already begun the work of growing toxin. He will be ready to innoculate five young horses within a few days, and as that requires close to live months to immunize the horse, he will be ready to supply the remedy about the middle of February. Waller's Pardon Proposed. Washington, Nov. 13. There is a finite understanding among the at taches at the French legation that ex Consul Waller will be released before New Year's day. This, it is said, is part of the program of the new Rad ical ministry in France, to extend am nesty to all political offenders. Wal ler's release will come, it is understood, as part of a general scheme of forgive ness and will be in no sense the result of any representations by the United States authorities. t'aml date for House Offices. Washington, Nov. 13. Republican members elect to the new congress have icceived circulars notifying them that McDowell ot Pennsylvania, Glenn of N'.'W York and Russell of Missouri will open headquarters at Willard's about the lth of this month. Mc Dowell. Glenn and Russell are Candi da' es for the offices of clerk, door keeper and sergeant-at-arms. Ex Congressman Thomas H. Henderson of Illinois is a candidate for clerk, and Thomas II. McKee, who was secretary of the Republican congressional com mittee on the campaign last year, is a candidate for sergeant-at-arms. ALLISON AND M'ALPIN. The Ticket that Iowa Republicans Are Working For. Chicago, Nov. 13. The Timev Herald to-day prints the following: Senator William B. Allison, candi date for the Republican nomination for President of the United States, will start his boom in Chicago to-day. He enters the field aggressively, ask ing the support of Western men, while his friend and fellow statesman, James S. Clarkson, is working for his interests ' in the East. Mr. Allison comes to Chicago in company with General Henderson of Dubuque, a leader in the House of - Representa tives and one of the foremost Repub licans in the country. General Hen derson's appearance in Chicago with Allison is significant. It may be taken to mean that the distinguished lowans are here to receive callers.1 Senator Allison's lieutenants are en deavoring to perfect a combination in which the details are all planned and which may meet the favorable atten tion of Republican leaders in the east ern states now supposedly committed to the candidacy of Thomas B. Reed, in the event that Reed fails to get the nomination. This plan, which is said upon good authority Clarkson is en gineering, has for its object the nomi nation of Allison for president and of General McAlpin of New York for second place on the ticket. BAPTISTS IN CONGRESS. The National Convention Opened Impor tant Matters to lie Considered. Providznck, R. I., Nov. 13. The national convention of Baptists opened here to-day with a great attendance. Among the delegates is John D. Rocke feller, who is very prominent in the church on account of his liberal en dowment of its educational and elee mosynary institutions. The clerical representation is also imposing. Every prominent Baptist interest in the United States is represented. Home missions have assumed great importance. Dr. Thomas J. Morgan, who is secretary of the society in charge of this work, has prepared a report of unusual interest upon which the congress will take action. In the West and Northwest the Baptist church is making giant strides, but the lack of funds and men is a source of embarrassment. Dr. Mor gan is the leader of this mis sion work, and what he has to say on the subject will receive great attention. The missionaries through out the country have, in not a few cases, attained unusual eminence for denominational workers. Among these are the Rev. N. B. Rairden, who labors in Missouri; the Rev. C E. Con ley, stationed in Michigan; the Rev. E. II. Meredith of Kansas, and the Rev. A. W. Clark of Nebraska. It is very likely that the congress will take some action with reference to the University of Chicago. A very general impression exists in the public mind that the university is in some manner or other an official exponent of Baptist ideas. This influence has been very disagreeable to Baptists everywhere. The question of the missions in China will receive special attention, with a view to joining with other de nominations for the protection of mis sionaries. Chicago Papers Cut Prices. Chicago, Nov. 13. The Tribune, in its issue Sunday, announced that the price of the paper on week days, in side the city, hereafter would be one cent This morning the Times-Herald and the Inter-Ocean, the only other two cent morning papers, announced a similar reduction in their price to meet the cut made by the Tribune. The action of these two morning papers places each of the morning papers in Chicago at one cent a copy. Not a Pressing Issue. Washington, Nov. 13. Lord Salis bury's failure to mention the Venezue lan question, in his Guild haU speech, j is regarded as a most significant omis- sion. The speech summed np the premier's position on all the foreign questions regarded as of pressing im portance, so that this avoidance of all mention of Venezuela is construed to mean that he attaches less importance to it, and to the controversy over the Monroe doctrine than had been sup posed. A St. Louis Minister Disgraced. St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 13. The Rev. Dr. William T. Lee of Benton, a suburb, has been found guilty of un due familiarity with female members of his flock and has been formally sus pended from the Presbyterian church. Some time ago he deserted his invalid wife and children for a woman of his church. China to Pay Additional Indemnity. Washington, Nov. 13. The Japa nese minister has received a telegram to the effect that a' convention has been signed at Pekin providing for the payment of an additional indemnity j by China for the evacuation of the Liao-Tung peninsula. The amount is 30,000,000 taels, and is to be paid No vember 10, 19.. T. W. Palmer's Home Burned. Detroit, Mich., Nov. 13. Ex-Senator Thomas W. Palmer's residence on Woodward avenue was destroyed by fire this morning with valuable brie a brac, paintings and furniture valuable as mementoes and which cannot be re placed. The loss includes a complete World's fair record, the only one in existence, and scores of tokens col lected during the Senator's residence in Washington and Spain. The insur ance aggregates about $35,000. CONDENSED DISPATCHES The A. R. U. -strike on the Great Northern railroad has been declared off. The United States Supreme Court I has hanrled down a decision holding'! that beans are- vegetables. ' Senor Moreno was found guilty of libeling Baron Fava, the Italian am bassador, and given a jail sentence. It is said that Presiaent Cleveland has decided to appoint Judge Rufus Peckham of New York to the Supreme eourt vacancy. NC HEADY AS YET. FOREIGN AMBASSADORS REST ING ON THEIR OARS. United States Minister Terrell Warns the ' Turkish Government that No Harm 1 Must Befall American Missionaries ; Towflk Pasha Says Everything Possible j Will be Done for Them Rioting Near Jerusalem. Waiting for Warships. Constantinople, Nov. 14. It is now believed that the powers will not take definite action against the porte until aU the naval squadrons shall have as sembled in Turkish waters, which will be about the time that the British am bassador, Sir Philip Currie, returns after consulting with his government as to the future action of Qreat Bri tain. In the meanwhile the state of suspense is decidedly wearying, and the ambassadors themselves will be greatly relieved when the hour for ac tion on the part of Europe arrives. That this time is coming now seems to be only a question of days. There seems to be no doubt that the spirit of revolution is spreading even among the old Turks, and the yonng Turkish party is said to be ripe for re volt. The army needs money for pay, equipment and provisions, and the same state of affairs prevails in the navy. But the arrears of pay are not forthcoming, and there is much grum bling in consequence, except among the palace troops, which are kept well fed, well paid and comfortably idle, for upon them depends the safety of the Sultan, who is in hourly dread of assassination. Under these circum stances it is not astonishing that the army and navy are becoming disaf fected, and nobody would be as tonished to hear that they had sided with the revolutionists, should the uprising take place. Replying to the inquiry of United States Minister Alexander W. Terrell, as to the safety of the American mis sionaries, Commissioner Darnhamhas telegraphed from Harput saying that the missionaries are alive but in ex treme danger. Mr. Terrell has in formed Tewfik Pasha that the govern ment will be held responsible for the safety of the Americans. The Turk ish minister for foreign affairs has as sured Mr. Terrell that everything pos sible will be done for their protection. As Mr. Terrell has great influence with the palace authorities, it may be presumed that Tewfik Pasha will keep his word. Fresh disturbances are reported from Malatiah, where a number of persons have been killed, including four priests of the Society of Jesus, who were under French protection. The French ambassador, M. Cambon, has been appealed to. and is preparing a very strong representation on the subject to the porte. A squadron of five French warships has sailed from the Piraeus for Turk ish waters, and it is stated that an Italian fleet will rendezvous with the British fleet within a few days. There has been serious trouble at Caesarea, not far from Jerusalem, but no details of the rioting there have yet reached this city. CARLISLE FOR JUDGE. Said to Have Been Selected for the Su preme Bench to Succet-d Jackson. Washington, Nov. 14. It is rumored in well informed administration cir cles that Secretary Carlisle is to be appointed to the supreme bench to succeed Justice Jackson. The plan to name Judge Peckhamof New York has been changed by the recent elections. Had Kentucky elected a Democratic legislature, it was confidently expect ed that Mr. Carlisle would, on the fourth of March, 1S97, step from the Cabinet into the Senate. This anticipation can not now be realized. The political revolu tion in Kentucky has also ma terially affected Mr. Carlisle's chances for the presidential nomination, as well as greatly reduced the advisabil ity of being a candidate with the odds so largely against the Democrats. Under these circumstances the politi cal future has little attraction for Mr. Carlisle, besides which his tastes and desires lead him naturally to a judicial position. He has been so loyal to the President, even to the extent of sacri ficing to some extent his prestige in his own State, that his appointment to the Supreme court would not be ques tioned. . Curtis of Kansas for Reed. Washington, Nov. 14. Congressman Curtis of Kansas, has taken a position well np in the front ranks of the Reed rooters. He diplomatically said to day: ''Just now Messrs. Reed and McKinley seem to be in the minds of the people most prominently. Reed is gaining strength all the time. If he wasn't so far East he should begin to prepare for a four years sojourn in the White house right now. My be lief is that the Kansas delegation will go to the National convention unin strncted, but there will certainly be among onr delegates some men who will fight hard for the man from Maine.' 'Wants Byrnes Indicted. New Yobk, Nov. 14. Lawyer Frank Moss, representing the Parkhurst So cioty, who was associate counsel to the Lexow Committee, which tried hard to prove ex-Superintendent Byrnes guilty of malfeasance in office, said to-day in reference to the charge made by Gambler Schaeffer that Byrnes had accepted a bribe: "The Grand Jury should indict Byrnes, if corroborative evidence can be found, providing the statute of limitation does not interfere." Uaher Issues a Challenge. New York, Nov. 14. Peter Maher, who knocked out Steve O'Don nell so handily challenges any man in the world to fight for the championship and he will not put the stakes so high that no one except a man with 3,000.000 acres behind him can accept. Maher will fight for $5,000 a side, in public or private, and will go any place to do battle, South Africa not barred. Brady, Corbett's manager, says the champion has surrendered the belt Vy Maher and will back him for HO.OOO against Fitzsimmons. CANAL scheme indorsed. The United State Commission's Bepovt n the Nicaragua Project Favorable. Washington, Nov. 14. Trustworthy information has been received as to the contents of the report of the com mission which examined into the feas ibility and cost and recommended a route for the Nicaragua canal. It is in the hands of the President, who is using it in connection with his work on his annual message to Congress. It indicates that a canal across the Isthmus via the Nicaraguan route is entirely feasible from an engineering point of view. The cost of the pro ject as estimated was $1 10,000,000, but it is stated that this sum is too small by some millions. The route as proposed by the com mission is 173 miles long, or three or four miles longer than that which the canal company propsed. The com mission made surveys to the right and left of the company's route and has suggested some changes which it be lieves will be advantageous. The commissioners' waterway will be supplied with locks The San Juan river and Lake Nicaragua will be employed, but the former will require considerable dredging. The lake is fifty-six and one-half miles across from the San Juan to the mouth of the Lajas. Some dredging will be required on the west coast of the lake, which is shoal for a distance of something like 1,950 feet. Brito will be the western terminus of the canal and the distance from this port is a little more than seventeen miles. The estimate has been made that, in order to complete the canal which the commission proposes, six years will ba required with a force of 20,000 men constantly empiorerl MRS- CLEVELAND. The President's Wife Makes Garments for the Poor. Washington, Nov. 14. The Needle work guild of Washington is an organization of ladies formed for the purpose of supplying articles of cloth ing to the poor. It embraces 58a members, and has no church connec tion. The president is Mrs. Harlan, wife of Mr. Justice Harlan of the United States Supreme court. At the annual meeting yesterday Mrs. Robert Craig, president of the board of directors, said that Mrs. Cleveland was one of the most earnest workers in the guild, and that she had made thirty-eight pieces, and had lately sent five to headquarters. Mrs. Craig said that if every member of the society would be likewise charit able and industrious, there would be little suffering for clothing this winter. Governor and Clerk Clash. Louisville, Ky., Nov. 14. A special to the Post from Frankfort says: Governor Brown and W. H. Newhail, a clerk in the auditor's office, quar reled in the state house yesterday, passed the lie, and would have come to blows had not bystanders inter fered. Newhail had accused the gov ernor of voting the Republican tioket and acting the part of a traitor. The executive responded with an emphatic denial, and one of the men struck at the other, when friends of the two separated them. It was claimed that Governor Brown attempted to draw his revolver, but he denies that he was armed.' Minister Hatch Arrives. Bait Fbancisco, Nov. 14. The Occi dental and Oriental Steamship Coptic arrived last night from the Orient and Hawaii Among her passengers was A. T. Hatch, late minister of foreign affairs of Hawaii, recently appointed Hawaiian minister to the United States to succeed Minister Thurston.
