MORTON CONSIDERING RECOMMENDATIONS
Ho I.nj-n Donrn the Oplnloi that If Moro
Accuracy Is Ur.ilred 1'nlit Agents Mast
lie Uinploroil to Furnish
Information ,
WASHINGTON , April 18. Secretary Mor
on and Statistician Ilobertson have not yet
iad an opportunity to consider the recom
mendations made by the various rcprescnta-
Ives of the committee organization wlilcli
recently presented plans looking to more
accurate crop reports by the Department of
Agriculture. Secretary Morton says that It
s a fact tbat cannot bo controverted that
neither the government nor an Individual
can get something for nothing , and the
primary reports upon which the published re
ports of the department are based , are fur
nished by persons who get their pay In agri
cultural publication , seeds , and a few franks.
The secrelary doei nol expect that accurate
reports can bo obtained In this manner , and
akcs the ground that If crop reports of the
department are to be made valuable In the
'uture , money must be expended In securing
: ho Information upon which the statistics are
jased. He advocated before the conference
an annual census of acreage planted , and
says that If the department has Information
us to the amount of grain sown In a county
t can , on a report In June showing climatic
conditions and as to whether or not It has
suffered from Insects or other causes , make
a very close estimate as to the probable
crop. The lecretary says that reports from
the men who own and operate threshers
would furnish the best Information as to the
yields of grain.
While the suggestions of the commercial
men may bo ta' ' : n Into consideration and
BO me of them adopts , the department has
already considered "clans for improving the
service and nSa round that the trouble lies
n the fact that there Is not suOlcient money
to carry out any method of reform that
would greatly Improve the service.
Statistician Robertson listened lo all the
arguments presented at the recent confer
ence and says that some of the suggestions
are good and others are Impracticable. He
says that It would not bo best to abolish the
nlatc agents , while there are still but a
limited number of reporters In each county.
He thinks It well to Increase the number
of reporters , but this Is something that the
department has under consideration. The
recommendation that Apt II bulletins on the
condition of winter wheat be discontinued Is
not wise , and If It wore done It would apply
equally well to the bulletins on the condi
tions of other crops while growing.
Sir. Ilobertson saya that under presenl
conditions the recommendations offered couli
not bo adopted even If all were for the Im
provement ot reports , because of legislation
and more money Is necessary for carrying
them out.

WASHINGTON , April 18. Diplomatic cor
respondence between Russia and the Unltcc
States for the past two years , just published
refers particularly to the condition ot the
Israelites In Russia and their Immigration to
the United Slates. This began In May , 1893
when Secretary Gresham telegraphed Minis
ter White as to the edict against Jews ant
which It was supposed would result In a
largo emigration of thai people lo the United
States. Minister White , In reply , state :
there was n tendency to a greater rigor on
the part of the government In Its Ireatmenl
of the Jews. As to the laws or orders re
garding this people , ho said : "The treal-
menl of Ihe Israelites , whether good or evil
Is not based entirely upon any one ukase or
statute ; there are said to be In the vas
jungle of the lawy of this empire more lhan
1,000 decrees and slalulcs relating to them
besides hundreds of circulars and secret regu
latlons , restrictions , extensions and tempo
rary arrangements , general , special and local
forming such a tangled growth that probablj
no human being can say what the law as a
whole Is least of all can a Jew In any
province have any certain knowledge of his
rights. "
Ho discusses al some length the condition
of the Jews In Russia and the contempt It
which Ihey are held by Ihe masses of Rus
slans. Very small opportunities are affordec
for educating the Jews and even where
they form the great bulk of the populalloi
only one-third are allowed to hold munlclpa
odlccs. lie says the religious restrictions
are most Illegal and Incomprehensible. The
Russians charge the Jews with fanaticism
but Mr. White says they cannot bo renderei
less so by the treatment Ihey receive.
The Jews are more kindly treated bj
Alexander II , and Mr. White attributes the
reaction against them to the assassination o
thai monarch.
After this dispatch Mr. Gresham wriles lo
Mr. Webb , secrelary of Ihe legallon , saying
"The conllnued enforcement of such harsl
measures , necessarily forcing upon us large
numbers of degraded and undesirable per
sons , who must , In great measures , ba sup
ported , cannot ba regarded as consistent
with the friendship \vhlch the Russian gov
ernment has long professed for the United
States. " '
Some further correspondence ensued and In
January Mr. Webb Informed Mr. Greiham
thai final expulsion of Jews from Ihe pro
vlnce of St. Petersburg was extended unll
June , 1S95. Mr. While soon afier Informed
Ihe department that the Russian govern
ment absolutely denied thai It was assisting
Jewish emigration to the United Staes. An
olher letter quotes from a German paper , say
Ing that 11 was determined lo send Ihens \ \
Jewish emigrants lo Argentines and Ihe help
less wcro to be assisted to the United Stales
Another question \\na the right of a natu
rallzed citizen ot the United States to rclln
finish his citizenship and become a Russian
citizen. Mr. Gresham says this right Is un
questonablo.
A diplomatic question was raised ovei
Joseph Wing Field , an American citizen o
African descent , 14 years of age , who was
going lo St. Petersburg as a servanl of a
resident of tbat city. He was stopped at Ihe
frmillor. but through the Interven
tion ot Mr. White was allowet
to proceed , but the Russian gov
ernment refuses lo allow him lo remain nn
less he has a passport. The objectloi
to Issuing him a passport was nol that It
was under age , bul that he wont to St
Petersburg with the Intention of remaining
five years. Assistant Secrelary Uhl said tha
a passport might Issue to a minor upon ( alls
faclory proof that ho Intended to return I
the United Slates by attaining to his major
ity.

puUIon from Ihe Caroline Island ] by Spain
of Iho American missionaries. It appears
also , that Immediately upon receiving the In

United States Minister Tyler at Teheran
Persia , appears to have had a great deal o
trouble last year In securing adequate protec
ton ! for American missionaries who wer
striving to establish a Jewish mission schoo
In tbat country. Tha missionaries wer
rudely trealed by the Inferior Persian of
flclali and had difficulty In protecting thtl
pupils. Owing to the energetic efforts o
tba minister , which found a ready rupons
'rom the shah , the school was finally put
upon t firm bails , although It was found ncc-
esiary to caution all the mission stations to
observe very carefully the treaty stipulations
and refrain Irom extending retugo to Persian
subjects.

the United States against. Newman and
others. ThU case Is better known as Kit
Carter Cattle company case. The catlle
company Is mortgagee ot the first entry-
men , and asked to have entries reinstated

WASHINGTON , April IS. Dr. Guzman , the
Nlcaraguan minister , was asked loday con
cerning a reporl that Nicaragua desired that
the present NIcaraguan Canal company
should surrender the concession under which
work has been done thus far and that the
Untied States and Nicaragua should jointly
undertake the future work as a government
enterprise. The minister explained the re
port was duo to a misapprehension. The
NIcaraguan government had no wish , ho
&ald , that the company should surrender Us
concession. It had every confidence that the
company would push the enterprise with all
possible dispatch. Under these circumstances ,
Dr. Guzman said , the plan of joint govern
mental action was not a live one and it was
not regarded as a remote possibility. The
government wanted to give every facility and
encouragement to the company and did nol
want the Impression to get abroad that It
considered a forfeiture likely or even possi
ble. Dr. Guzman says Iho misapprehension
arose through crediting to him a statement
which he had communicated to the State
department as an enclosure. The statement
had been made during an Interview between
the United States minister at Nicaragua
and the government authorities. It was for
warded to Dr. Ouzman and by him sent to
the State department without any purpose
to endorse the views. It has since been
found that thu report of the Interview at
Managua was very defective. Minister Daker
was talking In English and understood no
Spanish. The NIcaraguan minister was talkIng -
Ing In Spanish and understood no English.
There was naturally some misunderstanding ,
from which the recent reports have arisen.

WASHINGTON , April 18. Secretary Car
lisle and Assistant Secretary Hamlln are In
teresting Ihemselves In behalf of the Califor
nia small fruit growers , to prevent. If possi
ble , the frco Importation of currants Into
Ihls counlry. The Now York board of general
oral appraisers recently decided that under
the new tariff law all currants save Xante
currants could bo admitted free , and for
several days past the Treasury department
has received a large number of protests
against allowing this decision to stand. It
U learned that yesterday Collector Kllbralth
at New York heard arguments on both sides
of the question and concluded lhat the law
was too plain to ndmlt of any olher con
Blructfon than that given It by the board.
The action ot congress in striking all cur-
ranis from the dutiable Hat save Xante cur
rants was a blunder , and yet the amend
ments made from time to the particular
section plainly show nn Interested purpose
on the part of some one to remove the duty
from currants. The Treasury officials though
having little faith In a favorable result , wll
very likely appeal to the courts from the
decision of the Now York board on bolml !
of the small fruit growers of the country.

at the close of the volume , strong Instruc

The meeting of the Current Topic club nt
tlio Young Men's Christian association rooms
ast evening was enlivened by the conducting
of a question and answer school on the
Platte canal scheme. Citizens Interested In
Boeing tlio undertaking go through talked
Interestingly of Its various phases , legal and
commercial.
Mr. Loblngtcr presided and announced as
the subject of the evening "The Platte
Illver ; or , as It Should Ue Called Now , the
Douglas County Canal. "
I ) . C. Patterson reviewed the details of the
undertaking. "Tho engineers tell us , " Bald
Mr. Patterson , "that wo can produce power
cheaper than If wo had coal mines at our
doors. " The Impracticability of constructing
a canal from Florence on the Missouri river
was pointed out , both on account of the
lack ot an adequate fall and the sand-charged
condition of the water.
In refereuco to the canal law the speaker
said ho was assured that Its provisions were
legal and the bill would hold water. An
attempt had been made In certain quarters
to represent the county commissioners as
worried over the danger which might como
from parties speculating In land located nt
the terminus of the canal , but this was un
called for , as the bill spoke for Itself on the
subject , clearly prescribing the duties of the
trustees.
Nothing could happen to the young men
of the city so good , Oeorgo N. Hicks dc-
clarpd , as a general revival In Omaha , not
of boom times , but of some substantial bus-
Incss nature such ns the canal would bring
An enterprise ot such magnitude would Itsell
bo a standing advertisement. Eastern cotto
manufacturers were looking tenth for new
locations. Cheaper coal and cheaper power
were the attractions. Cheap power wouli
solve the whole problem of getting manu
facturers to locate In Omaha. The feasibility
of giving away power to get manufacturers to
come hero was shown by calling attention
to South Omaha's success In getting tlio
packers to locate there. They were given
hundreds of thousands of dollars ot stocli
In the South Omaha Block yards to secure
their location.
Doth gentlemen answered many questions ,
The superiority of a public control of sucl
an enterprise was pointed out by Mr. Patter
son , who stated that Chicago by Its owner
ship of the water works system cleared $2-
300,000 last year over the necessary expenses
The Thomson-Houston company , he stated ,
sold annually twice as much power In Omalu
as It made. In other words , a party boughi
power by the year and only used It part o
the time. The county had the same oppor
tunity. The canal could < bo built of such sko
as the bonds Issued , would warrant and coulc
be easily enlarged.
The Kearney canttl , Mr. Patterson In replj
to a question stated , was a falluro because
of Its small slzo and a neglect to provide
against sand. Yet It 'whs ' full of water and
running Kearney's , electric plant , Omaha
should not make th ? mUtako of only putting
$500,000 Into the entcrprfse , but build a cana
of adequate capacity.

terest to Army anil Nnvy ,
WASHINGTON. April 18. Tlio United
States supreme court today heard arguments
In the case of M. li.'JBlmson , a captain In
the United Stateb navy , vs David n
Sayre , appealed from the circuit court of the
United States for tha eastern district ol
Virginia. The case Is one which has cxcltei
considerable Interest In naval and army
cl'cles , involving as it does the validity of
trials by court-martial and the right of the
civil courts to set aside the verdicts of the
at my and navy courts wherever crimlna
punishment is involved.
Sayro was a clerk lo a paymaster In tlio
United Stales navy , on duty on the receiving
ship Franklin at the Norfolk navy yard.
Ho was accused of embezzling ? 2.000 In
money and sentenced by court-martial to two
years' Imprisonment , to a heavy flno and to
dishonorable dismissal from the service.
Sayrc sued out a writ of habeas corpus ani
Judge Hughes ordered his discharge from
imprisonment on the grounds that , although
Sayro was In active service , ho could not In
time of peace be punished for the offense
which he committed by court-martial or
otherwise than on Indictment by a grand
Jury under the Fifth amendment to the
constitution , and also on the ground thai
the sentence of the court-martial was "cruel
and unusual , " and prohlblleU by the Eighth
amendment.
I' was claimed on bshalf of the navy that
the court had no jurisdiction and erred in
granting the application for habeas corpus.
The case Is regarded as a test suit and the
Nnvy department appealed In order to get a
ruling of the question from the United States
supreme court.
Littleton Walker , a lieutenant , who acted
as judge advocate of the court-martial ,
though not a lawyer , was permitted by the
supreme court to make an argument In the
case.
