Too Much Sugar.

Reports of the over-productlon OF
sugar in Europe continue to reach
us here. The State Department al
Washington has late reports from
quite number OF its representatives
abroad, which confirm a statement
made in dispatches some days
ago, to the effect that beet sugar
was being placed on the markets OF
London and New York at ruinously
low prices.
Consul Mason, of Marseilles,
writes: "The system of bouDties to
the sugar-refning industry inaugu-
rated in Central Europe, and partic.
ularlv in Germany, while it created
in ii ese countries new and i'm
portant branch of industry, led to
an excess of production, which, be
ing far in excess of the wants of
consumption, had the unavoidable
result of subjecting the prices to a
constant depression"
Commercial Agent Smith writes
from Mayence, in general letter,
on the commercial and industrial
condition of Germany: Sugar is
falling very much in price. A great
deal of money having been made in
the sugar industry by the pioneer
manufacturers, sugar factories have
sprung up rapidly all over the en-
pire, aud too many persons are now
engaged both as manufacturers Of
sugar and cultivators of it. The re.
suit is that sugar is being sold at re-
low figures, aud a general
break will doubtless soon take place
among the youngest and weakest
Consul Keifer writes
from Settin: "The considerable
overproduction of beet sugar has
prices so much that many
are in precarious
state if they do not succeed in buy
ing the beet roots at a cheaper price
or making more favorable contracts
with the farmers"
With fine sugar selling in London
1t 3 cents per pound, the President
recommending the renewal of the
Hawaiian treaty which admits sugar
free, the Mexican treaty admitting
sugar without duty likely tc be con
irmed, and another treaty admitting
Cuban sugar unmolested with tariff,
.he sugar growers Of the south will
feel that there is no hope for them
save to turn their sugar plantations
INTO orange groves or Gotten fields.

In this state man may marry
his aunt. He may marry his moth
er-in-law. There is the utmost per-
sonal freedom allowed to anybody
who wants to enter upon career
full of danger. This fact excites
the interest of journals in other
states where the restrictions upon
marriage are numerous and upon
divorces few. The Detroit Free
Press lifts up a warning voice a.
gainst the consequences of the Wis
consin liberality. 1t comments on
the case of the young man who
came from England to Milwaukee
to marry his aunt, and says:
He will be compelled, for his own
safety, to make hishome in Wiscon-
sin. So will all of his imitators, If
any there shall be, who go from
other countries or states to Wiscon-
sin to marry their aunts, uncles, neph.
ews or nieces. And what will Wis
consin do then poor thing? Desir-
able rs an increase of population
may be, no state would care for any
great increase upon such terms. AS
a rule, the man who wants to marry
his aunt cannot be regarded as a
good or valuable citizeu-especially
when he is an outlaw from his coun
try on that account. A state largely
peopled by such outlaws would in
fallibly be lowered in the estimation
of the world and in its own self-re
spect--if it had any. Can the Bad
ger state afford such a sacrifice
If the people of Wisconsin will look
calmy at all the consequences of the
experiment this auntmarrying En-
! ghshman has made, and to which
he has invited the attention of the
world, they will cease to exult. In
stead of looking hopefully forward
to fees and prosperity, the railroad
men, the hackmen, the ministers
and even the Justices of the peace
Will join in petition to the legisla
ture to repeal the law which permit
man TO marry his aunt, And thu
legislature will repeal it.
This is a narrow and prejudiceC
view of the case. There is no wan
rant for the statement that a ma,
who has the moral and physica
courage to marry his aunt has no
the material for good citizenship il
a state where courage is essential tc

Yesterday n complaint was made before
Judge Fisher, by one of the restaurant
keepers in this city, against Ira Hicks and
a woman by the name Of Jennie 0'Brien
for a disturbance and breach of the peace.
1t appears that night before last Hicks,
who occasionally gets his meals at the
restaurant alluded to, and also rents a
room which the gentleman who has charge
of the has control of, met the
woman somewhere on the streets of the
city and took her to the afore-
said for the purpose of having some sup
per with him. While here their conduct
became a little 20 outrageous for
anybody to put up with. Remon-
strances against this on the part
Of the proprietor only made matters
worse, until at last a good sized row was
the result. The trouble, however, was
not entirely confined to the place where
they got their meals, but the room which
the party had rented came in for a share
of the difficulty which they both were
disposed to make. After the complaint
was made yesterday the W would-be
belligerents concluded that it would be
better to put a stop to all further pro-
ceedings by pleading guilty, which they
did. 1t took $l3 each to square the ac-
count with Judge Fisher for their little
episode.

Night before last Pat Mccain, who is
generally quiet and well disposed, got
drunk and went on the bigges St and Wild
est warpath he could find. Officer Sulli-
van ~endeayored to persuade him to go
home, but it was no use. Pat said he
felt pretty good over the nomination of
Jimmie Blaine and ne proposed TO
celebrate a little. At last the officer had
to take him into custody and in SO doing
he had u terrible russell with Pat, but
succeeded in lodging him in the calaboose.
But this did not settle it with Pat, who
screeched and yelled for the balance of
the night. to such an extent that nearly
everybody in the vicinity of the City Hall
was kept awake until near daylight. Yes
terday afternoon he was brought before
Judge Lee on the charge of being drunk,
and a most comical time of it ensued.
Pat acknowledged that he had been
drunk, but as he had passed one night in
the calaboose he contended that his fine
ought to be RENTED on that account.
Some Of the arguments which he brought
to bear were amusing and witty to the
last degree, and he finally succeeded in
getting the officers to remit their tees in
part and Pat was released on what he
termed half fare"

GENERAL GIBBON.
He Passes Through Cheyenne and Is
rendered an Informal Reception.


Yesterday forenoon, at about Q O'Clock,
a telegram was received at Fort Russell
informing the authorities that General
Gibbon was aboard the Eastern bound
passenger train. As General GibbOn is
pretty well known here, his headquarters
being at Fort Laramie, where a portion of
his regiment (the It'll Infantry is station
ed, it was determined at once
by the military authorities to
come down and give the General
a little reception. In pursuance of this
plan the band was soon in readiness and
came down in full uniform, being followed
by several ambulances containing officers,
with their wives, daughters and friends.
Colonel Mason was among the number.
Quite a large crowd of citizens also
gathered at the depot, so that when the
train arrived and General Gibbon alighted
he found that he was receiving quite q
nice little impromptu reception. The
General was accompanied by his family
and two or three military gentlemen from
the Pacific coast, among whom was Major
I. II. Stanton, formerly of Cheyenne,
but now of San Francisco, he being the
paymaster for the Pacific military division.
The entire party were on their way East
not exactly a party, perhaps, for each
was going his own way independent of the
other-Major Stanton being bound for
Cheyenne.
General Gibbon has recently been on
duty as a special Inspector General for
the Pacific division, but his present trip
does not seem to have any official signif-
canoe. Gibbon was a Major General of
volunteers during the war, and for a long
time commanded a division in the 9Th
army corps. In the great battles which
resulted in the downfall of Petersburg
and Richmond, General Gibbon com
manded the oath corps and at which time.
the writer well remembers, he was cheered
by the troops all along the line as loudly
and long as was either Grant or Lincoln,
who were also present,

Mr.. ADAMS IN TOWN.
he Is Accompanied BY Several
Other Railroad Magnates
Who Spend Three Hours Last
Night in the City.

Entirely unannouneed there bowled into
the Union Pacific depot last evening,
about s o'clock, q special train consisting
OF four elegant coaches. These contained
a party of railroad magnates who have
been for a long time expected to pass
through Cheyenne. At the head of the
party was Charles Francis Adams, Jr., OF
Boston, the recently elected President of
the road. He was accompanied by S. r.
Galloway, Of Chicago, Assistant President;
Frederick L. Ames, OF Boston, aud Hugh
Riddle, of Chicago, Directors; S. II. II.
Clark, General Manager, and T. L. Kim
ball, Assistant General Manager, of
Omaha s. L. Smith, of Kansas City,
General Superintendent of the
Kansas division; j. H. Garfield
Private Secretary to Mr.. Adams,
and Fred Ames, Jr., who has
recently been graduated from Harvard
and is a relative Of Mr.. Adams. There
was but very little in the way of informa-
ton to be secured from any member of
the party. The nominal object of the
IMP is to secure information.
"As the newly elected President of the
read said Mr.. Adams, when approached
on the subject, 4 am naturally DESTROYS
of becoming thoroughly acquainted not
only with its practical workings but all
the facilities and possibilities which it
may afford. Practical information is
what l wish to obtain, and to secure this
l must naturally visit the ground. | in
tend to go over every foot of the road
and then | will be better prepared to ac-
complsh that which / have laid down to
perform"
1t is supposed hat one OF the objects of
the visit West is to see what can be done
with the Denver Il Rio Grande, for it is
thought that the Union Pacific would not
object to either owning or controlling this
line of travel. However, if such is the
case it certainly did not develop from any
thing let drop by any member of the
party. The special train did not pull out
westward until about IL o'clock. The
party will in a rather l%eisurelY way con
tinue their trip until they reach San Fran
cisco.

A FINE PERFORMANCES.
Canender's Minstrels Capture a Large
Audience.

"
The Calender Minstrels gave a decided
ly good entertainment at the Opera
House last night, and sustained the repu-
tation they long ago gained among Chey-
enne amusement seekers, of being in the
first rank of minstrel companies. Their
very elaborate programme was fully car
ried out and all of their selections were
well received.
OF the first part Billy Kersand's song,
Come Along Sinners and Lewis
Browns "Sweet Sixteen" deserve special
mention. Billy WAS in the height of his
fun loving profession, and Mr.. Brown has
a wonderfully strong and melodious voice
and his singing is a treat to the lover of
fine music.
Armstrong; surprising feats ofstrength
and skill, which he modestly classes as
limitations, are wonderful in the extreme.
One of the best features of the Cal
lenders entertainments is The music, and
the vocal selections of the double quartette
were highly enjoyable. There is an in
d~escribablc richness of melody in the
voices of eolored people which makes their
singing at once peculiar and inimitable
and highly enjoyable, and the vocalists of
the Calender company are worthy Of
unstinted praise.
The company gives a matinee this
afternoon and an entire change of pro-
gramme this evening. They should be
greeted on both occasions with full houses.

\ quiet glance around yesterday among
those who are believers in prohibition re-
vealed the fact that the nomination of
Governor St. John as the National Pro-
hibition candidate for President is not re-
garded as the best thing which the Pro-
hibition party could have done in the way
ofmaking a selection, and there are many
firm believers in the prohibition cause in
this city who think that, under the cir
cumstances, it would have been better not
to have made any nomination at all. As
it is, the vote which this candidate will re-
ceive will draw largely from the Republi-
can party, it is claimed.

wAHULA,s WOE.
He imagines That He Ought to go 70
the Hospital.

Wahula, the half-breed, who is in jail
on the charge of stealing a horse, has Of
late been very restless, and finally he has
made up his mind that he was very sick.
Within the past two or three days he has
had several talks with Sheriff Sharpless
and has been trying to convince him that
he ought TO be taken from the Jail and
consigned to the hospital. OF course
Wahula didn't var to get up there for
the purpose of getting a good chance to
escape, and yet there was a lurking sus-
picion in the mind of the Sheriff that
this was the reason hat he wanted to get
transferred to the hospital. On yester-
day morning Wahula insisted that he
was very sick and wanted to have DR..
Marsten sent for at once. Complying
with his wishes Sheriff Sharpless in the
afternoon sent for the doctor, who soon
put in an appearance at the Court House.
On entering the Jail DIR. Marstin asked the
half-breed what was the matter with him,
but, although Wahula is pretty smart, he
was not quite equal to this emergency.
He could not tell what was the matter,
and as the final summing up of the whole
matter, he made up his mind that if he
could get just a little more sugar in his
coffee he would soon be all right. This
attempt on the part of Wahula to get out
of Jail came to an inglorious end, and
the noble brave still languishes in durance

Living up on - street is a young
lady, who we will call Mabel Hamilton,
who has for a long time been very temper
ate in her habits, a ~teetotaler in fact,
although formerly she used to imbibe very
freely. She for some reason got to be 4
great admirer of Governor St. John,
whose lecture she listen to when he was
here last Winter, and it is said that since
that time she has not drank a drop of
liquor of any kind. How she heard ofthe
fact that st. John had been nominated
for President by the Prohibitionists does
not very clerely appear, for the Associated
Press dispatches-announcing that fact did
not reach Cheyenne until after midnight,
but she heard off in some way and felt
much rejoiced. What should have Undue
ed the unfortunately inclined woman to
do what she did no one knows, certain it
IL, however, that she came down town
aud took a big drink Of whisky. Having
taken n drink it was perhaps impossible,
as she thought, to keep from taking
another, and in a short time she was
found in the streets by Officer Nolan,
dancing wildly about and hurrahing for
Governor st. John. In spite Of all the
efforts made by Nolan she could not be
quoted and had to be taken into custody.
She was confined in the calaboose until
she got pretty well sobered, when she was
released, but was brought before Judge
Lee yesterday afternoon, where she plead
cd guilty to being drunk, and was fined
$40. which she promptly paid.

1t having been suspected that there
were some Of the Cinnamon in this city
engaged in the not very laudable enter
prise of running opium dens, aquiet little
round up of the city was recently made to
see what the facts were regarding this
reported state of affairs. The result of
the investigation was hat no opium dens
are found anywhere in Cheyenne, at all
events, zone among the Cinnamon. That
there are parties in this city addicted to
the habit of smoking opium there is but
little doubt. but there appears to be no
regular resort for purposes of this kind.
