this blow deult at the Invaders is not
enough , cither to quench their thirst or stop
the advance. Thcro will bo severe fighting.
July and August nro pretty hot months for
white men to engage in battle with the wiry ,
Bunkc-liko Soudimcs'o. Such Is the military
aspect of the case. For seven ye\rs : England -
land has militarily occupied Egypt. It Is an
uxlom familiar to every well Instructed or
floor In Europe -that the key to Egypt
Is Khartoum. There can bo no
permanent "pcuco until England holds
Khartoum. England might have done this
over nnd over again. Mchcmct All captured
Khartoum with Egyptian soldiers , nnd Egyp

Suahim to Berber , then to Khartoum , lu the

with Egyptian soldiers and Stephcnson nnd

Sir Frederick Roberts , Sir Archibald Alison ,
Sir Evelyn Wood , Sir Gerard Graham , the
Duke of Connaught , General Stcphenson or
any other general able to draw a sabre , who
would not turn scarlet with shame to confess
that these cnfo a1 lait Egyptians could go
where the Britons dared not tread. But
this fact , nevertheless , must go down
into history. Diplomacy says that

already been pretty well exploited.
If Eng'aud has the courage of her
opinions then lot her capture Khartoum one

Millet's Celebrated Picture Will Prob

Angelus1 will go to America , " said James F.
Button to-day. Next to the Frcncl. govern
ment Sutton was the highest bidder. His
etory of the sale , non-compliance'with the
terms , and his fixed success is as follows :
"Tho blddlng-ln of the picture for the gov
ernment ana the subsequent refusal of the
deputies to confirm the purchase , which is
now next to f n assured fact , huvo been polit
leal nets. Many Frenchmen dssiro to keep
the picture in France simply because it is
great work ( it art. Others have different
motives. T think , no doubt , that Proust
wanted to make political capital , from having
led a successful attempt to retain the picture.
On thu other hand , tome are trying to make
politic A ! cuiiitol by urging that the cost

bettor n BO the tonoy in aiding starving
citizens , uml in keeping with this claim be
gan to decry the merits of the picture. To
say tlml Iho picture was worth only COO , or
that It was a Bchomo on the part of the gov
ernment , or any onn aotin * for it , to fnroo
aome American to pay an enormous price , Is
Bimply nonsense. I law tbo picture years
go and ha'vo had my eyes on it since , with
the dotormii.atiou of buying It li a chance
offered. I know Seuretan was offuied and
refused 20,000. I catna prepared to pay
20,200. The picture had two competitors
besides Iho French coveininent wlio were
willing to pay 20,000. These are facts
enough to render ridiculous the claim that
the picture is woith only MO , At the sale
the picture was knocked down to tlio gov
ernment without warning. The bid
ders created comothlng of a row
immediately and finally compelled
them to put It up againnnd
the bid * run ufi to 20,200 before
Proust got it. The coadltls-n - was that the
money was to bo | > ald lUst Friday. Thurs
day Proust came to ma and asked if I was
willing to tcko the picture if ho failed to gut
the money. I bald yes. I had'been follow
ing the matter , as I had doubts of lus/eoulng
the money. Ho borrowed the money from
Uothnchllds. When It won found that the
deputies would cot vote It In time the pic
ture was , put on exhibition , over 125 being
taken In the first day. Then 1 put a atop to
the exhibition , having bcourcd a contract to
take the picture. I signed tha contract last
Thursday. I found that there was no chance
of the ( lu.mtlea confirming the purchase.
1'rouit came to mo and said be would cer
tainly be defeated. Then 1 had a talk with
him and * representative of the Corcoran al-
leryvlio WM ono of the highest bidder * .
Tliev nsrrcd that tha oulv riuUt I
hould have was the first chance to take
the picture. I accordingly entered Into a
contract to tnko It off Proust's hands for
lust what ho had paid in case tlio deputies
refused to confirm the purchase. liroust
expected the picture for 3,000. Ho had se
cured subscriptions to the amount of 2,000 ,
jut the excitement ( it the snlo was very
great nnd many shouted to him to go on
.lidding and they would furnish the money.
This was mcro talk , as events have shown.
Ono man , n , stranger to mo , told mo to go
ahead , for ho would give 10,000 to hnvo the
picture go to America. When Proustjouml
that the government would almost cer
tainly refuse to take the plcturo ho
came to mo naturally , for lie
did not care to shoulder his obligations to
Rothschilds. Thcro is aura to bo n great
stir over the matter In France , for the gov
ernment will bo severely criticised whether
it takes the picture or not. Fooling Is di
vided and Intense , The matter will bo set
tled to-day or to-morrow. I have n repre
sentative liero who will watch matters. I
hope nnd expect that the picture will bo
shipped to America within two weeks. It Is
possible that it will first bo put on exhibi
tion for two weeks in Paris for Mme. Mil-
lot's benefit.11

turod by that gentleman , was yesterday
tried and convicted nt Versailles. Under
advlco of counsel ho made no personal do

for him , declaring that he had certainly been
drinking that day , and asking leniency on the
moral ground that this was his first criminal
conviction , nnd on the physical point that ho
had already received severe punishment dur
ing his cup t uro. In view of his pleading
guilty the court dealt mercifully with him ,
sentencing him to two months' imprisonment
and 1,009 , francs fine. Ho will remain in jail
until the sum Is paid. As John Sargent's
prospects of raising 1,000 francs nro not visible -

Sir Charles Russell demanded the produc

Short nnd Hllmly Attended.
Sioux FALLS , S.D. , July li. [ Special Tolo-
gratn to TUB BEE.I To-day's session of the
constitutional convention occupied but thirty
minutes. Only two-thirds of the delegates
wcro present. The special commission
which loft for Blsmnrok this morning to de
termine upon n division of the Indebtedness
and records of the territory , took away suven
members. The others were absent on leave.
President Edgorton goes to his homo at
Mitchell ' to-morrow morning to spen3 Sun
day. Others have loft for tholr homos , or
will leave in the morning , to spend the second
end Sundny since the convention convened ,
A quorum will not bo present to-morrow.
There need bo no hurry , for the deliberate
way in which the North DaUota convention
Is proceeding warranted President Edgorton
In saying to your correspondent this evening
that the commission will not return from
Bismarck earlier than the 2iHh Inst. , that the
report would not bo finally adopted under n
week thereafter , aud that the convention
will not adjourn , In all probability , under tlio
second week in August.
With those facts in view nnd with the in
tention of not permitting delegates to work
for amusement atone , the chulrman of the
committee on expenses of tbo convention ,
during the session to-day , requested dele
gates to band In u computation of tholr mileage -
ago (15 ( cents a mlle ) , so that the expenses of
the convention may bo kept in hand. There
is $20,000 to bo expended , If need b"o , under
thr net of congress , nnd it Is safe to wager
thai none of it will revert back to swell the
surplus in the treasury.
Tlio committee on legislative appointments
was expected to report that the legislature
shall consist of 44 senators and 120 represen
tatives , as stated in thcso dispatchus lust
night , but it did not report and will not till
Into next week. The committee consists of
twenty-five members , and a linat agreement
is difficult to secure. There is plenty of
vocal music at its meetings.
The committee on judiciary Is also having
some lively sessions. It is tryinjr to * deter
mine whether the number of Judicial dis
tricts shall bo Increased. The constitution
nt present provides for six ono west and
five east of the Missouri river. The Black
Hills people want two districts west of the
rivQr and some who have their eyes on the
oftlccs want six districts case of the river.
The committee on Judiciary is composed of
thirteen delegates , nil lawyers , most of
.vhnm , as ono put it this afternoon , "would
not sneeze at the office of district judce. "
A lively committee meeting in a Dakota
convention means something , and this nuiuso-
menr. may continue a weak ere It Is trans
ferred to the Hoer of the convention. There
are very few politicians hanging around the
convention and the work Is not being influ
enced by outside interests. Less than n
dozen persons not directly connected with
the proceedings wcro present at the session
to-day.
The incident which occurred nt the mass-
meeting of prohibitionists in iho Grand oprra
house last night may lead to an open rupture
Involving the prohibitionists of South Dakota
on ono nnd the friends of Sioux Falls on the
other side. I refer to the denunciation of
the citizens of Sioux Falls by the Uev. E. E.
Clough , of Watcrtown , as related in a BBB
special this morning. Ho stated that be
cause Sioux Fulls was saloon-domineered was
no reason why the law could not bo inforcod
in other places. He referred to the egg-
throwing episode of last week , < ; hnrging
Sioux Falls with insincerity In her efforts to
capture the man who did the act , and said
that ho proposca to devote his time for tlio
next sjxty days to advocating the cauio of
prohibition , and if Sioux Falls declared
against it ho would taka 5,000 votes from
her for the capital. The meeting
was a very largo and rcsucctablo ono. It
was presided over by Juugo Edgerton , who
Is president of the constitutional convention.
Elder Clough is ono of tlio most inliuuntlal
delegates to the convention and in the pres
ence of hundreds of the leading citizens of
Sioux Falls it is no wonder his words
created a profound sensation and that the
people hero uro up in arms. Besides thin ,
Watortown , the homo of Elder dough , is a
very formidable and promising candidate for
the capital , and it is held by many that his
sweeping charges of bad faith against' the
citizens of this place are in the interests of
liis favorite for tbo capital , but this is not
true.
true.This
This morning the Sioux Falls Press has a
lengthy editorial on the subject , under the
caption : "A Sweeping Charge , " in the
course of which it says ; "It Is charitable to
suppose that Rev. and Colonel Clough said
moro than be fecla now ougnt to have boon
said. It is scarcely HUely that in cool blood
ho would Justify a public and
sweeping charge that every citizen
in Sioux Falls Is responsible for the outrage
recently perpetrated upon the orohlbltion
mass meeting hero by the throwing of eggs
Into tbo uudlunco. A charge like this puts
some of the most ardent prohibitionists of
this territory , who are residents of Sioux
Fnlls , in the aamo category witti a miserable
reprobate who thus disturbed a public meet-
Ing. Such a charge Colonel Clough would
not candidly reiterate to such people person
ally. Furthermore , Colonel Clough proba
bly appreciates now , oven if ho did not do BO
nt the time of his Inflated assertions , that he
was addressing n meeting of the citizens of
Sioux Fulls In the Interest of prohibition nnd
that the duty \vaa incumbent upon him while
occupying such a position to do whatever ho
could to Induce that special nnd particular
audience to Mipport the movement for which ,
ho stood as a champion , and If this bo
trno , it is likewisu probable that ho
feels inwardly chagrined that ho so far
allowed his Interest in ono of Sioux Falls'
capital rivals to overstep for the moment his
concern for prohibition. "
In any event , the utterances of Delegate
Clough will precipitate the capital location
fight in its most violent form. It would now
Beein that th ro was design in the movement
of the Ministers' Association of South Da
kota in presenting to the convention the
other day , through Delegate Clough , a me
mo rial requesting that there bo a special
election day for the selection of the canltal
site , and that this question be notconfounilcd
with other questions which will como up at
the election when the constitution Is ratified
and stuto officers aud congressmen are
chosen. ,
The capital campaign will begin In
dead earnest the first of next month
and will bo at fever heat
shortly after. The republican nomination
convention will bo hold at Huron , on August
23. Watertown Is negotiating for some of
the greatest adjuncts to success at popular
elections that can bo fourd in the country ,
and will Introduce some features Into its cam
paign which will bo so novel and effective
that they will crcato a sensation , not only lu
South Dakota , but the cntlro northwest.
Some Watortown citizens go to Washington
and Now York for this purpose this or next
week. Meanwhile , Sioux Fulls is a very
strong candidate.
Delegate Clough aald to TUB BBB corrn-
npondcnt this evening of his utterance at thu
opera housa last night : "I did not say the
prohibitionists would hold all of the citizens
of Sioux Falls responsible for tbo ctrg-tbroW'
ing indignity. Whut I did say was that the
authorities were responsible and would bo
bold responsible. ' !
Howbelt , the og-tbrowlng incident and
the words of tbo elder lust night are to figure
prominently in the capital campaign.

BIBMAHCK , N. D. , July W. ' [ Special Tele
gram to TUB BBB.J It is a significant fact
that the first article proposed for the consti
tution was presented to-day by M. N. John
son , chairman of the commlUcco on corpora-
Lions , nnd Is the first whaclc at the railroads.
This article provides that the railroads must
carry all state mllltlit or members of the leg
islative or Judicial departments of the state
at n uniform rate of I cent per mile. There
nro many of the delegates who look upon the
article as unconstitutional , but the fant re
mains that the chairman of the corporations
has started out on the anti-railroad lino.
A scheme Is said to bo bn foot among the
democrats to bring about the adoption of
minority representation ) ana the untorrltlcd
nro holding secret meetings nightly looking
to that end.
A lively squabble will also bo stirred up
when the rooort of the committee on public
institutions Is submitted , us It is already ap
parent that the capital question will cut a
prominent figure in the convention's ' delibera
tions. The Dovil's ' Luku people have lobby
ists on the ground working in the interest of
Unit point , nnd Jamestown has endeavored to
gain i opularlty-m the rhnveutlon by extend
ing an invitation to tlio delegates to adjourn
to Unit point imd accept f roe board during
tbo session. Bl.smarckors nro saying nothing
on this question , believing the capital will
remain hero and that nothing is to bo gained
by unnecessary warfare.
IJ. C. Wiloy , of the National Reform asso
ciation , who nddrcsscd the convention yes
terday in the interests of Sunday laws , will
remain some time to convert the delegates to
prohibition , woman suffrage and blue laws.
The committee has already n number of pro
posed articles before it , mid the proceedings
will soon bo interesting.
The republican candidates for governor
and United States senators nro getting into
a pretty mess. General Alien , who has been
considered the lending republican candidate
for governor , is accusing prominent candi
dates for the senate of treachery and du
plicity , and Allen's enemies are taking ad
vantage of his anxiety to embarrass and
weaken him. The slate for the United States
senate seems to bo ox-Governors Ordway
and Pierce , but F. B. Fanchor , the republi
can president of the convention , is beginning
to crowd into the race. * '
The meeting of the committee on Judiciary
dovolpod the fact that tuoru will bo consider
able ilillleulty in sotthjig the work of this
committee. There is no < aucstion ns to the
supreme court , bnt the tnjublo lies between
the county and district courts and resolves
itself into a fight on tuo part of would-bo

Thcro Is likely to bo n general shaking up
In the land ofllco pretty soon , as the now
special agents who have been looking into
nffnlrs out west hnvo mode some rather nasty
discoveries. It appears that during- the re
form administration of General Sparks the
latter was se much occupied In seeking1
reasons for refusing homesteads that ho en
tirely overlooked the frauds that were per
petrated In his name. The officers of the
Interior department decline to show the reports -
ports or to gtvo any details as to their con
tents , but the president and Secretary
Noble have had two or thrco earnest inter1-
views over the matter , nnd hnvo abnut do-
cldod that It is useless to go on with the In
vestigation until a good many changes hnvo
been made In the list of registers and re
ceivers.
rAnnocK nusr.
Senator Paddock put in another busy day
to-dav In splto of the fact that the whlto
nouso was closed to visitors owing to the In
tended departure of the president for Deer
Park. The senator by socclal arrangement
had n long and satisfactory 'conversation
with the president relative to western mat
ters , particularly these relating to tub state ,
of Nebraska. M ho development of the policy
of the administration In laud matters was
discussed nnd Intimation given that u
broader policy than had characterized the
last udmlnistration would bo carried out In
the development of the west. The president
Intimated to Senator Paddock that there
would bo an attempt to extend the patronage
of the government , in respect to Nebraska
matters ns soon ns it could bo conveniently
arranged , nnd the senator left the whito1
house feeling much pleased with the result
of the interview. Senator Paddock also put
in n largo portion of the morning at
the Interior department with Secretary
Noble where the various land ofllccs in tbo
stale wcro canvassed nnd the necessity for
changes In several discussed. Within a short
time it Is to bo expected that several appoint
ments will bo made , the llrst of which wilt
probably bo in the northern part of thostato.
After visiting Secretary Noble , the senator
called upon the chief signal ofllcor and ob
tained the revocation of an order for the dis
continuance of the weather report bulletin
nnd signals at Beatrice , which ho secured a
year ago , nnd which through a misunder
standing had been ordered discontinued.
Later in tlio day ho called upon Secretary
Windoin and strongly urged lit ) extension of
the facilities for the collection of internal
revenue at Omaha and throughout the stuto
of Nebraska and recommended an Increasa
in the number of deputy coltcctorshlps for
the Nebraska and Dakota collection district.
TLo secretary has taken the request under
advisement and there are good reasons to ex
pect a favorable retort. , The forgo , consider- ,
Intr tfto nmotmVof revenue collected , Is con-
sido/ably smaller in Nebraska than in any
other district In the country'Tho senator
also secured from the public printer a nronl-
iso of the appointment of a prominent No-
Jiraska editor to n position in the government
printing ofllco , which appointment will bo
made early In September.
