OUR SUPPLEMENT.

By the Oceanic Company's steamship
Australia we had later news from all
parts of the world, which we issue this
morning as a supplement. Contrary to
expectation, the Greek affair ended in
fiasco King George became frightened
at the naval demonstration and cOerced
his War Ministry into resignation. A
transition Ministry has been formed and
Parliament convened. The programme
of the new Administration is the
disarmament of Greece. Ii this
alternative be accepted there Is an
end of Greek national pretense.
When the allied powers sent their fleet
to the Adriatic to coerce Montenegro,
the little mountain State did not pay the
slightest attention to the ships, but kept
on whipping the Turk and enlarging its
borders; so it would have been with
Greece in the end if its lenders had had
the courage of their opinions. Greece is
now on a lower plane than any OF the
Balkan principalities. She wants mer
of action to raise her.
The Home Rule crisis is a serious one
British politics. Ulster is reported to
be arming to resist Home Rule, and the
Conservatives AMI Wings are counting
upon local instruction to strengthen
their han Is and defeat Gladstone.
There is really no serious news regard
ing the Reciprocity Treaty, although, a
we supposed would be the case, the New
York refiners induced the Chicag
wholesale grocers to petition Congress
against it.
We continue the news from the sup
plement in our regular paper.

L. ID. Saylor, Esq, had the contract
for grading the Pleasant Grove School
grounds, and that he did first-class job
is apparent to all who examined the
work. The Pleasant Grove School now
has grounds second to none in the city,
and the improvements just completed
add very materially to the surroundings
i'm that locality.
-Olof Londeen, Esq, while engaged
at work on his house III North Mankato,
fell distance of sixteen feet on Friday
last. He struck squarely upon his feet,
but the shock was so severe as to cause
conclusion of the spine resulting in
paralysis of the lower limbs. He is ly-
ing i'm critical condition, and there is
fear that he may have received internal
injuries.
In answer to the Sleepy Eye Herald
we would state the reason TIE FREE
Press did not publish "full and truth
fully" the resolutions passed by the re-
cent Republican Congressional conven-
ton, was because the original copy could
not be secured, and the only alternative
left was the reproduction of the matter
as published in the metropolitan papers.
Those papers got the "scoop" on the
platform.
Last weeks FREE PRESS contained,
among other illustrations, the houses OF
parliament at Ottawa. Mr.. VIM. Pear.
son, of this city, informs us that he
sawed most of the pine lumber that went
into the interior of these buildings in
1861, and remarked that board con-
tanning a knot larger than the end OF
ones thumb was rejected. The build.
ing is said to be a fine structure, and
built i'm the most substantial manner.

There is some talk, or rather it is
minated, that it would be wise move
for the city council to purchase the
grounds now used for fair purposes by
the Southern Minnesota Live Stock and
Fair Association, and convert the same
into city park. 1t would seem more
to the point if these grounds were pur-
chased and used for the same purposes
as Mt present. The distance from the
center Of the city is altogether too great
to talk about establishing park there.
Besides, the importance of permanent
fair grounds i'm Mankato is of too much

POSTMASTER CANNON.

| The daily papers Wednesday contain
ed the announcement that the name OF
Capt. James Cannon had been sent tC
the senate by President Cleveland foi
the office of postmaster at Mankato
The news of course spread through the
city with lightning speed, and the APP
pointment was received with satisfac-
ton by all-unless the exception is
made to handful of men who had been
induced to believe that Wise would
hold on until after the adjournment of
congress and then be re-appointed.
Soon after the unanimous rejection by
the United States senate of Wise's APP
pointment, Mr.. Cannon's friends, and
especially those who fought by his side
in the cause of liberty, prevailed upon
him TO petition the President for his
appointment. Papers were circulated
for signatures and strong home en-
dorsement of ex-sOldeirs and citizens
easily secured and forwarded. AS soon
aus it was generally known that he was
an applicant for the position, strong per-
sonal letters were sent to the president
by old army officers who knew Capt.
Cannon, when In the service, asking
his appointment. The First Minnesota
which recently held Il reunion at Wi
mona joined in petition, to man,
soliciting Cleveland to recognize the
claims of the old soldiers and reward II
lifelong Democrat and brave soldier by
sending Mr.. Cannon's name to the SEN
ate for the position of postmaster. No
man in Minnesota has ever applied for
Il position who was backed by stronger
or more earnest adherents than Mr..
Cannon, and in one instance nj least,
President Cleveland, by making this
appointment, has needed the wishes of
the people. lie has done well.
Mr.. Cannon will make good officer
as he has made II worthy citizen, and no
one will regret the choice that has been
made.

STOLEN AND RECOVER ED.

On Sunday afternoon last horse and
carriage was found in the road near
Whittaker's crossing, about two miles
south of Mankate, without driver or oc.
cupant. One of the men in the employ
of q. NJ. Phillips livery stable was al
the crossing at the time, and the outfit
was brought to the city and cared for In
Mr.. Phillips stable. The horse was
about used up when found. He showed
large ridges upon the right side, proving
conclusivelv that he had seen hard u.s.
age. The top of the carriage was badly
twisted out of shape, and indicated that
it had come in contact with the limb OF
81 tree. Otherwise the buggy was un-
injured.

Decision of the United States Supreme
Court.

washington, d. c., November 8.-Thes So.
preme court to-day granted the motion
made last week to advance and hear togeth-
the the telephone cases, six in number. now
on the docket, and ordered that they be set
for argument as one case Jrnuary oath next
at the head of the calender.
The decision in the case of the Kansas
City, Lawrence & Southern Kansas railroad
company, appellent against BENJAMIN Brew
ster, attorney general, in behalf of the
United States, was delivered. The original
suit brought by Attorney General Brewster
was to set aside certain instruments in writ
ing which convey titles from the United
States to quantity of land in southeastern
Kansas. Congress had granted lands in 1866
to the state of Kansas to aid in the cOnstruc-
ton of railroad through the Ne1sho Valley
from Fort Riley to the southern state line
q I'D the act conts ined the usual Indemnity
provision to the effect that lands other than
those epecified in the grant should be given
to the company in the place of any specified
lands which might then be taken under the
homestead and pre- emption laws prior to
the location of the road. UEder this act the
road ives built, and in due time claim was
made for idemnity lands which claim was
recognized by the interior department and
lands certified to the state for the company.
TIE validity of the certification by the inte-
rior department and patented by the state
to the company was attacked on the ground
that by the act Of March 8, 1863, and the sup
set of July /, 1864, the lands be-
came appropriated to building another road
through the same region. and maintained
that these grants prevented the company
from realizing the bounty 0f congress- be-
cause there is in the act of 1866 an express
reservation of any lands granted previously
for railroad purposes. This view was sus-
tanned by the circuit court. Now the eu-
preme court finds that congress intended BY
he set of 1866 to unity all acts On the sub
iect into one grant. The decree of the cir
suit court il reversed and the case remandei
