the operation of that act at the tlmo when
the crops were being marketed to Illustrate
the benefit. , to the country at largo from
home competition.
STIMULATES OTHER INDUSTRIES.
Colonel Hill laid epeclal gtrem on the
dangers arlolng from the disposition of all
continental countries producing stiKar to give
bounties. He Bald that no Industry offered
no wide and no dhitrlhutlvo results ag the
nugar industry , and ho gave .many figures
to show the wldeepread stimulus It gnvo to
other Industrie * .
In reply to a question tiy Mr. Johnson of
North Dakota , Colonel Hill expressed the
opinion that with the protection asked the
rano and beet nugnr Industrie * of the United
Statca could produce cnotign nugar to sup
ply the consumption of this country. Ho
further declared that he had not the slight
est doubt but that If the bounty of 1600 had
been continued during the term of yea HI pro
vided for , the RUgor growers would have HUP
piled the consumption by the tlmo the bounty
period expired. The cane growers ojked :
1. That specific duties dependent on boll
polarlscopo test and color standard bo Im
posed In lieu of ad valorem dutlr-a.
2. That commencing with 1.10 cent ! for
cugar testing 75 nnd under , K Dutch stand
aril , the rate be proportionately Increased.
3. That duties crtcl | to export bounties
bo Imposed to offset them.
4. A proportionate duty on molaoscs.
fi. That the now law have effect from the
passage of thu act.
C. That reciprocity treaties , If adopted , ho
without Injury to the domestic sugar In
dustry on llncw which rccognlzo the over
nlmdowlng Importance of developing nugar
production In the United States , and by sucl
methods as Inauro a protection equivalent to
that suggested.
J. II. Sypher of this city was called by
Chairman Dlngley and gave It ca lib opin
ion that the coet of refining by the Sugar
truot was not to exceed one-fourth nf 1
cent , while the coet refining In Louisiana
would , perhaps , reach threo-olghtha of 1
cent.
cent.Mr.
Mr. Humphreys was recalled and asked the
coat of refining sugar , but ho said he did not
care to net Ma opinion against actual rcfiuofs
Ho thought that , however , In a genera
way , the cost of refining sugar , tenting 96
degrees , was about as stated by Mr. Sypher
but BUgars of lower grade * with imoro Im
purities would , of course , be much more , for
Instance , It would ccst one-half of 1 cent to
rcflno nugar of 85 degrees.
In reply to a question by Mr. Mc.MlllIn
Mr. Humphreys said that Sugar tiuit wan
n combination of the sugar rcflnerlM , exist
ing at the tlmo (1SS7) ( ) It was organized ; there
were several refineries outalJe the trust , and
he livid read of others In contemplation , which
led him to believe that the number would be
Increased In tno next few ycara.
HENRY T. OXNARD'S VIEWS.
Sir. Henry T. Oxnard of Grand Island , Neb. ,
president of the American licet Sugar so
ciety , In behalf of the beet sugar Industry
charged that thu present tariff not only-
failed to give protection to the sugar rais
ers , hut discouraged the Investment of addi
tional capital. It had been predicted that
under the McKlnlcy law the beet sugar
IndUAtry would grow rapidly and three ro-
flnerlcs had been built during the life
of that law , but since then fear ol
change had deterred new Investors. Any
fichedulc on sugar which had been In force
nlnco 1SCO , except that of the Wilson law.
would permit the spread of beet sugar
crowing. Beet sugar could bo produced In
twenty states and under a proper tariff
the United States could In good ytprs ralac
the sugar necessary for consumption. The
beet ImliMtry protested against ratca which
favor the single state of Louisiana. No
patty except that which framed the Wilson
bill had procured any sugar rates lower
than 194 to 3' ' * cents per pound. Mr. Ox
nard delivered an argument In favor of
a bounty and proceeded to quote depart-
IW/ metal reports and other authorities to show
that this country had sulficlvnt climate nnd
capital rcQiilxIto to the production of all
Its own sugar. Every other nation , even
Sweden , which could supply HuoVf with
sugar , had taken every measure to do o.
REASONS FOR A BOUNTY.
Even llttlo Bulgaria had liberal duties and
bo nut lea enforced for thin purpose. Cost of
labor , uncertainty as to legislation , export
bounties In othir countries and decline In
prices were all operating to keep capital out
of Investment In beet sugar. Germany now
pays 27.32V4 and 383-10 cents per 100 pounds
export bounties , according the quality of the
sugar , and could afford to sell sugar In New
York at 13V4 cents per 100 pounds less than
American produce , and occasionally eel :
surplus products below the costs. Give Amer
icans a reasonable bounty , guaranteed tc
continue for a reasonable time , and they
would work wonders. The American was
now obliged to comp to with African cheap
labor , as Egypt In the last fiscal year hai'
sent $3,257,000 worth of sugar to the United
Stntcs In British bottoms , which carried no
return cargo. With war In Cuba and thu
Philippines cutting elf supplies from those
islands , Germany was endeavoring to cap
ture the American market. For reasons sup
posedly commercial , congress had In 1S7C
legislated for frco entry ot sugar from Ha
waii , This treaty had never met favor with
the people , had cost $43,000,000 and had not
greatly Increased our exports to that coun
try. Thu estimated duties remitted by the
United States on Hawaiian migar are $10-
000,000. Ho thought It unjust to encourage
those Importations at the expense of revenue
and our homo producers. Ho urged the ab
rogation of the agreement.
Speaking of conlllcl'lng Interests Involved
In giving adequate protection to the sugar
growers , ha pointed to the efforts of sugar
refiners who bought and refined the foreign
product , and to the millers of flour and others
who desired to use sugar In reciprocity agree
ments , to obtain concessions for themselves.
The tenners wanted the lowest possible duty
on raw and the highest on rcllned. While ,
owing to the condition of the treasury , It
might not bu feasible to ro-cnact the bounty
BChcmo of ISflO , he thought the dual sytitem
proposed fey the senate amendments to the
Mills bill In 1SS8. which Imposed i\ duty and
also gave a bounty , was now entirely prac
ticable.
ADVOCATES DUTY AND BOUNTY.
Mr. Oxnard took strong grounds ozalnst
any reciprocity. He thought a dual policy
( both duty and bounty ) would be fair to all
Interests and Jeopardize none. Such a policy ,
ho said , would -Increase the revenue , out of
which the bounty could bu paid , and would
encourage the sugar Industry , The schedule
ho proposed was n duly of I cent per pound
on all sugars testing 75 degrees or leoa ; -
cents per 100 pounds additional for each do-
prco b twccn 75 and 96 degrees , and J ccnU
jmr 100 pounds for every additional degree
between DC and 100 , with one-fourth of 1 per
cent differentia ! on sugars nbovo 1C Dutch
standard. Ho asked for the McKlnloy duty
on molasses and contravalllng duties against
bounty-paying countries on both raw and re
fined augars. The bounty ho proposed was
thrco-four'hs ot I per cent per pound , ono-
fourth to go off at the end of each four years ,
the \vhole bounty to cease -in twelve years.
"Do you believe that a bounty would be
permanent ? " asked Mr. Payne. "You re
member In 1S94 you opposed It on the ground
that It would not bo made permanent. "
"Yes. " replied Mr. Oxnard. "I think It
would bo permanent because I believe the
republican party will continue In power. "
"Why ? " asked Mr. Wheeler. "Because It
has restored prosperity ? "
Mr. Oxnard did not reply to this nor to
Mr. Pay no when ho asked facetiously If he
believed this because of the encouragement
the republican party had given thu sugar
beet states and the close shavu In the sen
ate.
ate.Mr. . Oxnard , in answer to questions from
Pousse Patd.
And why not a pie-pusher
as well ns fi coffec-pushcr ? It's
far more necessary. Do you
suffer with dyspepsia ? Ayer's
Cathartic Tills will cure you.

Mc.MlllIn , said the eastern nnd western re-
flnr-rlcs hnd divided the American markets
between then and agreed not to Infringe on
each other's territory , the Hawaiian treaty
helping that agreement.
SPEAKS FOR T11K FARMERS.
Herbert Myrlck , president of the Orange
Judd company , spoke In the Interests of the
farmer. Ills argument was cxh.tustlvo and
was larccly ilovoted to showing the advan
tages of production In this country of the
sugar consumed here , tt was an economic
crime , ho said , to compel American farmers
to raise staples In competition with the
cheap land and lubor countries with which
to pay for Imported Rugnr , besides standing
the freight and commission both ways. They
have found by experience and scientific tests
that from the Hudson river to the 1'aclflc ,
from the Carolines to the lakes , they can
grow sugar heels os rich or richer In sacch
arine contents than those of Europe.
They want factories established to afford
a market for these sugar beets , which they
are willing to furnish at from $1 to ? 5 per
ton. At these prices the crop Is a profitable
one. Every aero devoted to It will by so
much rcduco the competition In other
branches In farming. What stands In the
way of the American beet sugar Industry
ho said , was mainly Kuropcn competition
What Is needed , he said. Is a reasonable spe
clflc duty on all Imported sugar , with at
additional discriminating duty for countries
paying an export bounty , equal to tha
bounty. Then , with such aid as the various
states ami territories Interested may offer
to secure sugar factories , the beet sugar
Industry could bo put on Ita feet In this
country within a very few years. The sugar
beet Industry , ho said , was on the high road
to success under the .McKlnlcy law. Its re
peal had brought It to a standstill. Farmers
realized that the tlmo had rome to look out
for No. 1 and they propose to do It , They
will reward the parly that stands by them
and punish the party that goes hack on the
farmers. They cared more for their brcai
and butter , said the speaker , than for any
party nnd are disposed to act accordingly.
In reply to Mr. Wheeler's questions Mr
Myrlck said the factory further south had
been conducted at Staunton , Va. , by Mr. 0
K. I/ipham , who had become convinced thai
the beet sugar was the best crop for the
middle south.
Thomas H. Cutler of Utah , a bishop of
the Mormon church , read statistics ot Im
ports nnd exports between the United
States and Hawaii , showing that the
exports from the United States are but
1194 per cent as compared with Im
ports and that $1.057.000 of duties nro re-
hated to the Hawaiian producers. The sugar
Imported from Hawaii would glvo employ
ment In the United States to 248,000 men
continuously throughout the year. While
much of the work In connection with the
raising of beets was being done by ma
chinery , the weeding had tn ho done by
hand , but the laborers of California would
bo glad of a chance to got down on their
knees In the fields.
"Utah has felt the hand of the Sugar
trust , " ho said. "The moment Utah tries
to get Into Its own market the American
Sugar company of San Francisco reduces the
price In Utah so that wo have to accept less
than the price sugar Is selling for In San
Francisco. "
Mr. H. M. Allen of Ames , Neb. , spoke In
behalf of the farmers ot the tronsmlsslsslppl
country. Low prices of wheat for years and
corn nt 11 cents , Mr. Allen said , had turned
the thoughts of the western farmers to
beets. Ileets were almost as desirable for
cattle feeding as for sugar.
During the morning session Francis B.
Thurbcr of New York nndV. . J. McCann of
Philadelphia also spoke. Iloth were sub
jected to vigorous cross-questioning by Mr.
McMllllu on the operations of the Sugar
trust.
The committee adjourned until 10 a. m.
tomorrow.
The commltteo appointed at the convention
of lumbermen held In Cincinnati on the 5lh

W VSHLNGTON , Uec , 30. The republican
caucus commltteo today considered legisla
tion providing for nn ntcrnatlonal confer
ence for the establishment of bimetallism
and agreed upon , a bill \\lilch It referred to
the republican caucus to bo held soon after
the reassembling of congress next Tuesday.
The hill agreed upon Is very brief nnd
merely confers upon the president tha right
to appoint delegates "to any conference that
may bo called which has for Its object the
establishment of bimetallism. " It does not
distribute the selection of delegates , as did
the legislation of the Fifty-third congress ,
between the president and the two houses
of congress , and , moreover , leaves the num
ber to bo selected only to the discretion of
the president. Senator Wolcott gave tha
committee a full account of his conference
with McKlnley , from which ho had Just re
turned , assuring them of Mr. McKlnlcy's
hearty Intercut In the committee's proceed
ings and his earnest Jcnlru to do nil In his
power to carry Into execution the promise of
the St. Louis convention to secure Intcrna.
llonal bimetallism If passible.
It was announced after the closa of the
conference today that the commltteo would
press for early consideration of Us bill with
the hope of securing all the legislation
needed at this session , so that Mr. McKlnley
could take whatever steps ho might deem
proper to carry It Into effect Immediately
upon entering upon his duties as president.
It was Intimated that ho was anxious to
have a conference next spring and have It
under way by the. tlmo the tariff should be
up for consideration. It as also stated by
members of the commltteo that they were
very hopeful of securing a conference , -and
also that they were "by no means hopeless
as to the results of such a conference when
once secured. " All members of the commit-

AMUSEMENTS.
Last evening nt the Crclghton theater n
large audience assembled to witness the
first performance In this city this season of
the Delia Fox Comic Opera company In an
aggregation of wit , wisdom , music and cos
tumes , cnnoiinccd as "Tho Llttlo Trooper. "
The modern comic opera does not pretend
to bo consistent , and often Is ncl'hrr upcia
nor comic. This one has a plot which af
fords many Interesting situations , ind Ka
matrimonial complications much real nnd not
particularly Improper fun. The music Is
tuneful end full of vim so are the con
ductor and singers. Everything goes with
a dash that decs not allow one to lose In
terest.
Miss Delia Is as full of life as ever , and ,
having dispensed with .1 slight superfluity of
adipose tissue , Is .gay nnd petlto to perfec
tion. She has somewhat of a voice , too. It
Is hard to say whether In her pronuncia
tion she depends upon the authority of Dr.
Johnson , or Mr. Webster , or the town of
Worcester. There is an occasional hint at
the Imperial , but the most of It seems to
belong to the next Century. Still she makes
herself understood.
Mr. Hugh Chllvers Is the possessor of ono
of the finest voices over heard In this city.
It Is said that ho came to this country from
Covent Garden theater , London , with the
rather late and much to bo lamented Colonel
Maplcson , whose Imperial Opera company
went to pieces In Hoston some tlmo ago. Mr.
Chllvers sings well and In the duet with
Nellie Uragglns aroused decided operatic en
thusiasm.
Speaking of legs , Mr. Harry Mac-
donough should be mentioned without delay.
Ono with Joints and ono without form a
novel combination , and last evening afforded
no end of amusement. As a comedian Mr.
Macdonotigh proved that by legitimate means
and without an eternal gagging a part can
bo made entirely satisfactory.
Mr. Frank Illnlr , seen but seldom , yet
never to bo forgotten , has a face that needs
not the protection of n copyright. Nobody
would Etcal It and nobody could make an
other such.
Miss Nellie Dragglns has a good soprano
voice and sings well. Trlxlo Frlganza looks
well and accepts the attentions of her ad
mirers with a Koncroslty that might be
contagious. The rest of the cast Is satis
factory. The male chorus Is especially good
and scenery and costumes are better than
generally get fifteen hundred miles from
New York. This evening the same company
will present "Flour do Lls. "
Piiild'nlicail Wilson and his fellow denizens
of Dawson's Landing will bo seen at the
Crelghton for three nights , commencing
Thursday. January 7 , when admirers of that
charming play will again have the opportun
ity c/f seeing the same excellent company portray
tray the familiar characlcin which Mark
Twain conrelved and the late Frank Mayo
mndo doubly Interesting. J. II. Martin , busi
ness manager for. this attraction , arrived In
the city yesterday.
For ono week , commencing with a matlnco
Sunday. January 3 , patrons of Boyd's will
hnvo an opportunity to pass Judgment on the
artistic ability of the Newell -brothers , the
only twin stars now before the public. The
opening bill will bo "The Cor.slc.in Brothers , "
a play which the Nr.vclls are said to be
pccullaily filled for. "Tho Lyons Mall. "
"Tho Clemeneenu Case" nnd "The Operator"
will also receive elaborate production. In
conjunction with these plays Lumlbre's olne-
matographesald to bo the most perfect of
all machine- } for the reproduction of moving
pictures , will' be exhibited.
That sterling melodrama , "Saved from the
Sea , " Is the' ' attraction at DoytVa every nlghr
Hill week , -with extra New Year's day and
Saturday matinees. The company ontalns
some exceedingly clever people nnd lovers
of honest melodrama will find entertainment
to their liking in "Saved from the Sea. "
Seats will be placed on sale Saturday morn
ing for the coming concert of the University
of Chicago Glee and Mandolin club , which
Is announced for Monday , January 4 , at the
Crolghlon. The program to be presented , U
Is said , will appeal equally to admirers of
popular as well as classical music.

A meeting of Cuban sympathizers was
held at Washington hall last night to re
ceive the report of the committee appointed
at a meeting held ono week previous. There
wcro fully 500 people present when the meet
ing was called to order by Ucccher Hlgby ,
who made a short talk.
Senator John M. Thurston was the prin
cipal speaker of the evening and he made
a short but stirring address upon the Cuban
question. After reviewing the history of
congressional action one year ago , when
the resolution was passed by both houses
favoring the recognition of belligerent rights
of the Cubans , the senator said the time
hnd now passed for recognizing their bel
ligerency and said ho was In favor of this
country recognizing the Independence of the
Cubans. He expressed thb opinion that pos
sibly action In this matter might be delayed
by the president , but predicted that the two-
thirds majority In both houses of congress
would keep up the fight until a law Is on the
statute books , with or without the signature
of the president , that will solve the Cuban
question. In closing the senator said U
was the duty of this country to wlpo out of
the civilization of the western hemisphere
the one foul , despotic blot which defaces It.
Following the address of Senator Thursun ,
C. It. Scott lead the report which had been
formulptsil bv the commltteo nDnolu'cd n
the last meeting. The report was n vo-y :
lengthy document and reviewed the causes
leading up to the present condition in Cuba.
The report censured the president for 'ho '
course taken heretofore and for the action to
bo taken by him aa Indicated by Secretary
Olnoy. It also gave a severe dig to the
stock exchanges , which have passed resolu
tions condemning the s.ntlmcnt expressed
In congress. The report concluded with a
declaration' of sympathy for the "Cubans and
memorialized conaress to recognize the In-
dencndonco of the Islanders. Senator Cam
eron waa commended for his course In the
matter and the several Nebraska representa
tives In conercss were requested to support
the Cameron resolution or ono similar to It.
Atler the reading of the report Congress
man D. H. Mercer was Introduced and made
a abort , characteristic speech , which pleased
the audience Immensely , declaring himself
firmly In favor of the recognition ef the In
dependence of the h.ndtul of Island > rsvlin ,
have held the Spaiilbh power at bay for
nearly two years. , ,
C. E. Winter made a short speech In sup
port of the report nnd then the matter was
put to a'vote and adopted unanimously.

this evening. fii the absence of Chancellor

the Invocation. .President Maynard Smith
of Grand Island Introduced Dr. W. O. Krohn
of the University of Illinois , who delivered
a lecture on "Chlld'Study ; Its Relation to the
Homo and School. ' '
KROHN ON CHILD STUDY.
Dr. Krohn showed great familiarity with
his subject , and his ideas were original and
Illustrations Striking. He said that the ob
ject of education Whs , as ho understood It ,
to produce thebest typo of cit
izenship possible. Ho did not
think that educational methods
In general gained .much profit from dl3cun-
slon. hut that discussion , to bo profitable ,
should bo confined to specific methods. Child
study was one ofthem , an Important one ,
and one thai had been lost sight of. What
would bo thought bf a manufacturer who
knew all about the working machinery of
his mills , and the quality and fibre of the
goods ho turned out , but nothing at all or
the raw material ? Man did not grow In a
masd , but by dcgrei-s , and growth always fo-
cussed upon one member at a time. Natu
rally , the child had a good memory , which
could be Improved. The child was for
largo action and full arm sweeps which
should be encouraged. But the comir.on
method was to cramp the natural instincts
of the child , and dwarf rfnd ImnJIcip Us
faculties. Therefore , the student came to
the university , de.'leu'nt in obsi'rvtulon. 'm '
agination and memory , all of which facul' '
tics should have bi n broad niM nnd > . de
veloped In youth , Insten.l of strangle 1. Even
lying In children , Instead of being a
downright vice , ho thought , was more
In the nature of Incipient research and
experiment. The entire lecture was on now
lines of thought regarding the culture of the
minds of childhood.
The program for tomorrow , as prepared

Last evening' ' ( MUlio chapel COO people lis
tened to the minrjaddrcsst's of welcome and
responses ilclmireu \ > y representative speak
ers from the city university , city schools and
the county schools and the association.
After Invocation by Ilev. II. N. Van Dorcn of
the Baptist church of this city , Hon. A. L' .
Leo was Introduced' as the bearer of the
city's welcome to the teachers of South
Dakota. It wag Mr , Leo's pleasure Inat Jan
uary to extend an Invitation to thu conven
tion to hold their next meeting In this city.
It gave him great pleasure to bo In their
midst , "Unfortunately , I am not an orator
aa U very generally known throughout the
atato. I have not the power to give the kcya
of the city , hut that docs not prevent you
from going at your will. No person can ap
preciate an education as well ag ho who
hasn't ono , I , mjself , feel the loin of an
education , but now it Is too late. " The
many visitors wcro heartily welcomed to the
city by thu next governor of the ntsto.
President Mauck , in behalf of the unlvcr-
alty , iiald : "In response to an invitation
from the trustees , the faculty , teachers and
citizens of the city , this association has met
hero for the fourteenth BOJIOJI. U U uu-
llko all other sessions la that U meets 1m
n town of one of the state Institutions. The
committee of citizens Is to bo thanked for
Uio funds raised for the light * , for the so
cial part of the session , 1 welcome you not
with ono hand or with two , hut with a warm
heart. I might turn over to you the keys
of the1 building , but wo would rather not put
jou to the bother of opening the doors , but
will open them for you. Go at your will. "
Prof. Townsley was Introduced as repre
sentative of the city schools , "Friends of
South Dakota , welcome. Being the third
speaker on the program I Rive you thrlco
\\elconic. " The member * of the rtisoclatlou
wcro all Invited to Inspect the new school
building Jnst completed. The work of the
school spoke for Itself.
County Superintendent Collins spoke In be
half of the county schools. Mr. Collins snld
that ho had been wondering what to say for
some time. Ho had been busy for some tlmo
carrying pillows nnd bedding over to West
hall for thn men of the asoclatlon. That was
welcome of ono kind. Action speaks louder
than words. Ho would IIho to give the asso
ciation such a welcome ns ho always got at
his mother's house on Christmas time , a wel
come from the heart. Clay county , with
fifty-six districts , welcomed them. Two
thousand parents and 3,000 scholars wel
comed them. It would bo foolish to try
and paint the town red , because It Is already
Vermllllon.
13. J. Qulglcy of Mitchell , In response ,
said : "Tho teachers of South Dakota hero
assembled , thank you for your royal wel
come. It Is an unusual tlmo for pleasure ,
nnd wo already feel at home. I feel almost
snowed under , overwhelmed on this occa
sion. Wo are hero because wo must be hereto
to maintain the prosperity of the state. Wo
are hero to hnvo n good time. Wo are here
to catch n word now and then that will help
In our work nt home. "
The president's annual address was de
livered by W. W. Gil-ten of Madison ,
In part he said : "While there are many
things that might ho said In commendation
of the growth and development of our
schools , I feel that the true purpose of this
meetln'g Is not so much for self congratula
tion as to confer and plan for the letter
things to which wo look forward In the days
to come. I believe that this organization
should direct and control the system of edu
cation of the state. Much good has been
done by the excellent papers and discus
sions In the organization. It ought to have
a membership of 2,000 Instead of 200.
"Those scientific conclusions that were
crystallized Into epigrams and Bounded to
you as oracles from the hearthstone of your
grandmother , 'Hnsto makes waste , ' 'The
early bird catches the worm , ' 'A bird In the
hand Is worth two In the bush. ' as they ap
peal to your reason rather than to your feel
ings , often caused a reaction of your feel
ings , until you censured the worm for early
rising and longed for the excitement of get
ting after the birds In the bush. "
The program was Interspersed with Instru
mental music and choruses under the direc
tion of Prof. Rallascyus. It was moved by
the assembly that greetings bo sent by wire
to all other associations then assembled.

DES MOINES. Dec. 30. ( Special Tele
gram. ) The meeting of the State Teachero'
association adopted a new constitution today.
\ few Important changes were made. The
L'tlucatlonal council Is made to consist of
'orty-two members , nix from the general as
sociation , six from the college department ,
six from the county superintendent * ' de
partment , six from the Normal and secondary
school department , twelve from the demon
tary and graded department and six by the
educational council. This was adopted and
then there was a fight over the propcaltlon
'o allow the council to fill vacancies In Its
own membership. The provision was finally
accepted. There are four district associa
tions , subsidiary to the state organlratlcm :
The northeastern * , northwestern , southeast
ern and southwestern. Each shall select two
representatives from each of Its counties ,
who shall constitute a representative asso
ciation , to meet the finU day of the general
convention and report on all rcconimenxla-
Ions from the district associations to the
icneral associations. Thla also was adopted.
The enrollment reached over 1,000 today ,

Yesterday afternoon about 2 o'clock a fish
erman named Dillon , who lives near Bcllc-
vup , saw a floater In the Mlrsourl river. He
towed It ashore. Upon examination It was
found to bo the remains of an old man
named August Diem. Dlcm was about CO
years of age. He has been supposed to bo
In destitute circumstances for several years
past and a short time ago was an Inmate of
the county hospital. Ho was mlsred from
there three days ago , but as ho Is not known
to have any relatives living in this city , no
search was inado for him. On his person
several letters were found and among the
papers a deed to several lots In Albright's
addition near South Omaha. One of the
letters was addressed to II. J. Wuethrlck of
this city. Diem was at ono tlmo a hot lunch
vender and had a stand near the old Far-
nam street theater. Ho was of Swiss pa
rentage. It Is not known whether he com
mitted gulcldo or not , but It Is extremely
probable , ns ho has been known to bo very
dcspondant at tlmea and was In a crippled
condition and without ready money.

WASHINGTON , Dec. 30. Half of the In
ternational six-daa' eight hour per day blcy-
clo contest In progress at the Convention
hall was completed at 10:14 : tonight. Thu
leaders had made over 43T miles , and If this
epced Is maintained until the end of the
contest It will far eclipse the previous rec
ord , which for six days Is "r > - miles and
thirteen laps , made by Ashlngcr , ono of
the contestants In the present race , at Bos
ton In 1891. Waller , the "Flying Dutchman , "
continued to keep the lead of two laps
which ho had when tlmo was called last
night. Maddox made a plucky but Ineffectual
attempt to close the gap between him and
the leaders , which was caused yesterday by
Maddox puncturing his tire. During today
the men kept well together , except that Wnl-
icr and Maddox made n lap on the bunch ,
and that Foster , during the latter part of
the evening , lagged behind the others. All
are keeping up fairly well and do not seem
unusually weary by the exertions of the past
three days. Waller Is having considerable
trouble with his eyes , and his friends fear
they may yet operate to his disadvantage
during the latter days of the riding. They
appeared to be almost closed tonight as he
shot around the ellipse. He Is looked upon
as the probable winner If his eyes do not
fall him. Eddie Bald paced the men fern
n short tlmo this afternoon. George S. Ball ,
the local rider , who entered Monday under
a disadvantage , nnd who was suffering from
a severe cold , withdrew today. Ills sick
ness on the wheel yesterday caused him to
lose much time and ho sow there was no
chance to catch up. Albert , one of the con
testants who dropped out , has appeared In
the role of trainer and will care for Lawson -
son and Ashlngcr for the remaining days.
In the exhibitions tonight Edillo Bald low
ered his three-fourths inllo Indoor record

CITY OF MEXICO , Dec. 30 The Mis
souri State University team played a game
of foot ball Tuesday nt the Indl.inoln
grounds , tholr contestants being the Texas
State University team. Neither side scored
In either the first or the second half. Ono
player , mimed Tucker , was seriously In
jured in the back of the neelc by n kick
It Is not known how badly he Is hurt
The great elevation wan seriously fell by
the players , who early lost tholr wind.
The spectators were mainly American and
English residents and a sprinkling of Mex
ican clubmen. There Is still talk of getting
up a local team to content with the Mis
souri team on New Year's d.iy. The Mex
ican dallies generally condemn the game
as brutal , nnd express the opinion that
the Litln : race Is to hot hlondcd to play
the game without losing temper. Foot ball
Is a'great novelty hero , and has aroused
public interest , but It Is not likely that
It can bo acclimated In Mexico.
