among American citizens of Jewish

regulations, as part of the domestic
policy for the government of Russian
Jews, we cannot tolerate their applica

Resolution Fi
&bJln-Hlers to Abrogate
aTretT.
Washington, Aprift-Senator Mc Mil
Ian, of Michigan, preheated a resolution
from the ship buildeis1: along the great
lakes asking congress to abrogate the
treaty of 1817 with GreBritain limit
ing the number of armed 'vessels to be
maintained on the latfcs,bv both na
tions, and to take the ifceessary action
to secure a twenty-foot Waterway from
the great lakes to the 'tbin tic ocean
entirely within AmericaJBurisiu'etion.
In a diplomatic sense tsgiwell as
from a commercial poik'jof view
mh3 resolution is one'ot more
than passing importance. In 1S17, fol
lowing the war of 1812, leKUnited
States made a treaty with Groat Britain,
by which it was mutually agreed that
each of these nations should oc ca titled
to maintain on the great lakes'ormiug
a part of the boundary betwfcen; the
United States and the British provinces
and dependencies, four armed scsVosWra
and no more. Tho treaty wasvubse
quently modified so as to make thtli'in
itationone steamer of specified )naa
ment The marvelous growth ofV.T&e
country and building up of popuTCta
cities on this side of the boundary iiafc
been far in excess of the growth, of tTfcj
cities on the Canadian side. '
Congress by an enactment of 'Febrn
ary 9, 1805, declared the treaty, so fa
as it applied to the limitation of the
number of war vessels on the irreat
lakes, to be abrogated and thenceforth
null and void. Secretary of State W. II,
Seward, however, agreed with the En
glish minister at Washington to rehab
ilitate the abrogated treaty and re-establish
it in full force. Bv reason of
this agreement it was recently ruled by
the department in Washington that it
was illegal for the great ship-building
interests on the lakes to submit proposi
tions for the construction of war ships
for the United States navy, even though
they were to be used on the high seas.
The solicitor-general l-ulcd that the
treaty of 1817, limiting the naval arma
ment to be maintained on the great
lakes does not now exist, which makes
a conflict of ruling in the administrative
departments of the government.
The ship-builders represent that the
iron and steel ship-building plants
along the lakes of the northwest ex
ceed in combined facilities, in magni
tude and capital the interests of all
other ship-building plants combined.
They ask that the treatj be abrogated;
that the canal be built as described.
and that section 4180 of United States
ia" oe
repealed. This section
Igives the secretary of the treasury the

The locomotive was completely wrecked

injured were struck by these flying

The civil governor and the police are
highly complimented on the neat and
effective manner in which they frus
trated the designs of the prisoners and
comparisons are made with the Paris
police who, it is said here, onlj arrest
ed the anarchists after they had caused
considerable damage.
It was thought that after the execu
tion of the four anarchists at Xeres the
members of that party would see that
the Spanish government was not in
clined to deal with people of that class
with half measures. It is believed that
I these executions did have the desired
effect as far as Spanish anarchists are
concerned and that the subsequent
troubles were due to agitators from for
eign countries. This idea is borne out
by the fact that both men arrested
Monday in the act of attempting to
blow up the parliamentary buildings
were foreigners, one a Frenchman and
the other a Portuguese.

of tho Funnel-Shaped Demon.
Chekhwale, Kan., April 5. Storm
stricken southern Kansas received an
other visitation of the dread monster
Sunday afternoon. This time the in
strument of destruction was the genu
ine eyejone, a funnel-shaped cloud,
which whirling and twisting carried
everything before it on its journey from
southwest to northeast.
This is the list of casualties: Mrs.
John Reeves, killed instantly; John
Reeves, fatally injured; Mr. Pcrry
Nixon, seriously injured; Mrs. E. E.
Lawson, struck by lightning.
The storm made its first manifesta
tion at Liberty, eight miles south of
this city, where it carried away part of
the Southern Kansas depot, scattered
the contents of S. A. B.-own & Co.'s
lumber yard and overturned several
small houses.
Three miles further to the northeast
if. sKimk tin? farm house of Dr. J. F-
Gard of this city, occupied by John
Reeves, carried away the house, barn
and outbuilding, killed Mrs. Reeves
outright and fatally injured Mr. Reeves.
From this point the cyclone contin
ued the destruction of fences, hay
stacks, orchards and small buildings
until it came tc a farm house, three
miles southeast of this town, occupied
by J. J. Emraerson, who until a short
time since resided in Cherry vale. It
blew the house and barn away and car
ried Mr. and Mrs. Emmerson several
hundred feet seriously injuring them.
One-half mile further on it struck tho
house of L. Baker, scattering it over
adjacent fields, leaving Mr. linker and
his three daughters huddled in a heap
on the floor, which alone remained on
the foundation.
Among other places still further
north and east which were damaged
were those of Perry Nixon, Nelson War
ner and Fred Wagoner. Mrs. NLxon
was the only one in that neighborhood
who sustained serious injury, although
the houses and barns in the path of tho
j storm in that locality were completely
I uemoiisneu.

this vicinity is one killed, three
and sixty slightly injured. The
imaire done in this city was a
number of window lights broken by the
hail. The destruction of property in
the country was terrible.

places the loss is serious. Five build
ings were unroofed in the northern
part of this city, but the worst part of
the storm fortunately pushed half a
mile to the north. The hills north of
the city are white with hailstones.
Late reports from the territory cov
ered by the storm make the damage
much more serious. One life is reported
lost, at Glenn's Run, three miles north
of Wheeling. At Martin Ferry 19,000
lights of glass were broken, and at
St Clairsville 5,000. The market gar
deners north of this city alone sustain a

DEMONETIZATION OF SILVER.
The Depression In Its Value Causes a Lon
don Paper to lllarae America. Therefor.
London, April 5. In a long article on
the situation in India growing out of
the fall in the price of the rupee,
tlie Times says: "From the
time of the demonetization of sil
ver in 1873 to the passage of the.
liland bill India has been help
less. She sees her currency the
plaything of foreign legislation. The
present rates of exchange are an intima
tion to everybody and to every firm
with money invested in India that they
may soon have to write off Jts value
one-half of what it was valued at
twenty-five years ago. As far as can bo
seen the rupee has not yet reached its
lowest value, and that it will scarcely
reach its lowest point while the Amer
ican treasury continues to maka en
forced purchases of silTer."
