to Tun HBB.I Ctmgressman Jerry Simpson
of Medicine r dgo , Kan. , has declared his
Intention to Introduce during the coming ses
sion of congress a resolution that will
probably cause qullo a sensation.
Mr , Simpson's resolution will propose thai
the United States acquire bv purchase all
the British possessions in America , including
the Hudson Bay territory. Ho argues that
the Canadians are so anxious to become eltl-
? ons of the United Slates thai they would
willingly contribute a portion of the pur
chase money.
Representative Simpson holdi that If It
was good policy on the part of the govern
ment to purchase Alaska , the arguments in
favor of obtaining British America arc
stronger In a ten-fold degree.

of making thunderstorm forecasts and ti :

of that year for systematic work in this line
by issuing a circular to selected stations
together with a supply of record cards
upon which rororts of storms Ii
tlio respective localities .should bo made
Tin1 data has been compiled from a largt
nuinbor of these repoilsand has been con
denned from separate stale charts Into out
general chart , and a bulletin based theivoi
has been published. In regard to heat am
thunder storms the bulletin says : H i1
found that two distinct thunder storm belt !

the second storm does not appear to hold it :
force lo Ihe same extent after 11 reaches lh <
territory which has been covered by a pro

the development of a thunder storm belt
gcnorally follow. During the season nearl ;

"A naval oftlcor of lihth rank whom I saw ,
says that both Kngland and France are , to a
certain extent , out of handas regarding
their nominal ruling authorities , and there
Is no knowing what circumstances may re
sult from apparently inadequate causes.
"The Kngllsh naval position In the cast
does not appear of a nature to Inspire eon-
deuce. On the China slatton there are
twenty ships , headed by the Imperius , which
Is the only armored vessel among Ihetn. On
the ICast indies station there are ten vessels ,
headed by the Bodice. Francois not so well
leprescnted as Kmrland on either station.
* lt Is understood that the admiralty has
decided that , If necessary , at least two war
ships could bo sent to Bangkok. The foreign
ofllcc has received intlmullons thai all possi
ble precautions have been taken for the
protection of British interesls in Slain.
Communications have passed between Lord
Uosubcrry mid Lord Klpon.
Til Ik with u Nn vn 1 Ofr.cor.
" 1 saw a naval ofllecrof rank who talked
as to the strenglh of the licet which could
bo senl lo Siamese walers. With one or two
exceptions , said he , there is hardly an avail
able vessel which could be placed in active
service. The naval authorities , I believe , arc
convinced thai some vessels of size am !
speed should Immediately bo dbpalchud Ic
BaiiL-kok lo give effective protection to Brit ,
ish interests. The only vessels , however ,
which could ho called Into service would con.
slst of a number of small gunboats and cruis
ers , most of which are of an ousoleto type
and which are serving on the China squad
ron. and some oven smaller vessels torpedc
boats , gunboats and third-class cruisers
which are in the Kast India squadron.
"Some of the hitter , though comparatively
new built and newly commUsioned boatsart
regarded now as of little use in actual war
faro. The Lapwing , Pigeon and Uedbroasl
are vessels of the latest typo commhsionoi
upon the station. They are all classed as
tirst-rate gunboats , with an average speed o
thirteen knots. The Plover , also , is rcgardei
ns a gunboat of the llrst class , but it i ;
known in naval circles that her speed doe ;
not come up to anything like thirteen knots
although she is so rated.
' There are the now Australian cruiser :
which could bo called upon in ease of gravi
necessity , munely , the Boomerang , Ka
toomba. Mildura , Kcnguroo and Tauramio
II is not thought , however , that these ves
sels , which were especially designed undei
an arrangement with the Australian govern
meiit for the protection of these colonies
could bo removed from their prcsani sci'vici
unless .mder the most stringent necessity.

roughly , I should say thai Kngland is s
vastly superior in the number and streugl
of her vessels as to render a close coinpat *
son almost unnecessary. We would call , c
course , upon the China and Kast Indie
squadrons , and it Is a simple matter of ca
filiation with a map and a pairof compasses
reckoning with an average speed of te
knots in an hour , as a basis to dctermin
how long it would take to mass these at an

New YOUK , July 23. The Herald's Hoston
correspondent says : ' A review of the situa
tion among the cotton factories of New
Mngland Is not assuring , but there Is noth
ing to occasion alarm. M miner * of com
panies think they are In a porploxin ? posi
tion , sueh as has never been forced upon
them at any former period In a quarter nf a
century. Ordinarily , at this season of the
year , U is nothing strange for some ot
the factories to shut down , but the
shutting down now has much sicnlllc.inco ,
'ar more than common. There Is an uncer
tainty lu the air which may swell into mo-
nentous proportions or dwindle into nothing
ness , Just as the wind wafts , and n canvass
of some of the leading cities indicates that
"
silver has much to do "with the situation.
Many of the manufacturers say they await
the decision of congress on the question ,
whether the the silver law shall bo repealed ,
with fear and trepidity , and the companies
and industries , which are more or less allied
to cotton , maintain n similar view.
At Fall River a shut down will bo enforced -
forced unless the demand for cloth picks up ,
for of course the mills cannot keap on spend'
Ing money with none coming in to replace it ,
lu tlio present state of the money market
the print cloth brokers cannot got money ti
buy cloth or do not dare to risk a possible
panic by doing so , and so cannot buy ,
Neither can the manufacturers borrow tc
carry on their business and so a shut down
is inevitable , unless the business of tin
whole country improves before the summci
is over.
DoiircsshiK Outlook.
In Lowell a lack of orders is troubling
mill men and ono concern has but half of it :
looms running. The outlook is very depress
ing , and if the present condition of tiling ;
continues , there is every possibility that sev
eral industries will have to shut down
I/well ncoploarc absolutely dependent 01
the mills , and a shut down would meat
great hardship and suffering to the workliu
classes. There is absolutely no new bust
ness there at present. All the mills are run
ning on old orders , and when these give oul
there is no knowing what may happen. II
no new orders come in , there must be a shu
down. At present there seems very littli
prospect of new orders and , to make matter !
worse , a large number ot orders have beei
cancelled. As things look now , there i !
every indication that unless the condition !
change , the machinery will ba idle withii
thirty or sixty days. This means no worl
for more than U.OOU persons , but it all dc
ponds upon the attitude of congress on tin
Sherman Hw.
Lawrence is feeling tlio effects oljho depression
pression and there are diverging opinions n
to whether the repeal of tho. Sherman lav
will bu benelieial to the trade. It Is ccrtaii
if the grout amount of overproduction con
tiuues , which must be the case with al
hands employed , then a shut down must fol
low in the halt dozen mills whleh are con
eerned , with their 8,000 hands. The owner
hope to lidc against this alternative am
await anxiously the attitude of congress 01
the silver question.
TiiUllu Inililltrhvi Dull.
Ill Now Hedford for tlio past six month
business in the textile industries has bee :
extremely dull , so much so , in fact , in several
eral instances the mills have not received a :
oracr since the tirst of the year. This i
duo largely to the uncertainty as to the in
lion to bu taken by congress regarding th
currency problem. Just at present the ac
lion , with relation to silver , is giving th
m inufaeturers more concern than the tarifl
inasmuch with a favorable money marke
the goods manufactured in New itedford ar
of such quality Unit the null men will b
able to stand considerable tariff tlnkerin
without fear as to the competition which
reduced tax on cotton goods will engender.
One establishment in Taunton has di ;
charged 1,10 hands , but the leading concern
anticipate no serious trouble. There , ha
been a cancellation of orders caused by th
uneasiness of the money market.
At the Uroinpton loom works , \Vorcestei
UK ) men have been idle during the summc
and thoKnowles loom has lot as-many go I
the same timo.
In New Hampshire the condition of affair
caused by the Amoskoag nulls shuttin
down is shaky. In Bradford , Mo. , the 1'ei
perill and Laconla mills have n.OOO hand :
and they view the outlook by no mean
kindly. The York mills in Saco liav
l..ViO employes and the idea is that they ma
bo obliged to close up. In Lewiston , Aubur
and Watcrville , Me. , the same unoasj feeing
-ing prevails.

Wcia Cur , Kan. , July SH. Tlio .Sabbath
has passed quietly tit Kits dtsirlct. The
mines were , of course , all Idle , and working
miners kept strictly out of the way of the
strikers. '
- The inliio owners have decided to not ac
cept the protection of the deputy sheriffs ,
offered by Sheriff Arnold. They say the
deputies are all appointed from the ranks of
the strikers and their sympathizers and that
tlio protection they Afford would not meet
the occasion. The owners are arming all
their men and the latter are under orders to
guard their lives anil tha properties upon
which they are at work at all hazards.
The sensation of the day is tho-speech
made last night by President Walters of the
United Mine Workers Western association.
Ho had Just rntiirno.l from Missouri , where
hu has been working for the cause of Iho
slrlkers. Ho addressc-d a blsr mass meeting
of the strikers and in the cdurso of his re
marks he praised the minors for Iho work
they had done at the Clemens Strip pit when
they were iired upon by the men at work.
He regretted thai he vras absent at llio time ,
for ho would have been glad to have led the
men to the conflict. Continuing ho said :
"Keep up the good work. March to the
pits and talk to the men. If they won't
come out to aid you in the strike , then per
suade them. ( Cheers' . ] Homotnbrr I do not
urge violence. { Luutrhter.J Let tbo women
go llrst , bul lei iho'hnsn follow to see that
their wives and mothers and sisters are not
insulted by the scabs ilind blacklegs. Don't
bo afraid to go to tlio mines. The only
charge upon/which yoil can bo arrested is
thai of trespass , and .thai docs not amount
to anything. The only * way to win this strike
is to win it , and you Itijow what thai means.
If we ealeh scabs outonlter darlc and give
them a good thrashing , what can bo done ?
They can't call out the Iroops for that , can
they ? " [ Cheers , ]
These remarks by the president of the
miners association have caused a sensation
among all classes. The 'mino ' owners fear
that violence will grow from now on , and tbo
men believe they have the support of their
union's olllcers In whutovur steps they may
take , however violent , to wlu.
The construction of the'stoekntles about
the larger mines is almost completed. Liv
ing tuiarters for miners are helm * built
within thorn and by tho.middle of thocoming
week it is believed everything will be read }
to accommodate the ne\v men. It Is under
stood that hundreds of miners have been en
gaged in Colorado lo pojo'work. The now
men are Ihoso miners w id have boon Ihrown
out of work by the elosiig of mines in Cole
rado. Most of them an siiigle men and the
mine owners believe they can be relied upon
to carry on the work "of .ho'coal mines in the

with his sister. In an interview ho dis
cussed the coal minors strike. He said ho
presumed tlio United Stales deputy mar
shals who had been sent to Weir City were
under orders merely to servo the papers of
tlio federal court in tile eases bronchi by the
mine owners lo prevent trespass. If they
had been sent to guard the mines , or the
miners at work in them , their presence was
entirely unwarranted : The stale of Kansas
was fully able lo handle the matter of the
strike and had not'called for federal aid.
The deputy marshals had no more business
interfering in the matter than so many citi
zens of Honolulu.
Continuing , the governor said that it was
unfortunate that the necessity for a strike
arose at this time. These were times when
men who were willing t6 work could llnd
nothing to ijp and were suffering for tbo
necessities of life. ICvery laborer ought now
to seek to retain employment. Thousands
of miners had bean thrown out of employ
ment m Colorado , and they , vould doubtless
seek work and 11 nil it In the Kansas mines ,
Thus t ho strike would bo bro.tea and the
mine owners , taking advantage of the iinfoi' .
Innate condition of the men , would put down
wages to their own lignres.
