a Steamer Sails for Hayti With
Cargo Of Rifles and Ammunition
Minister Preston's Shrewd
Move.
NEW YORK, Dec. 15.-The Atlas line
steamer Andes sailed to-day from this
port bound for Port au Prince. Rumors
that she carried, besides a general
cargo. several hundred thousand ball
cartridges for the Haytian government
could not be officially verified. 1t was
stated at the Office of the agents of the
line. PIN, Forward q Co., that they
coul | not tell the nature of the Andes
cargo until her sailing papers had been
closed and received. Haytian Minister
Preston also could not say positively
that the steamer carried any ammunition
for his government, but thought it very
likely that she did. From another
source it was learned, however, that the
Andes, in addition to her cargo of car
tridges, carried about 5000 Winchester
and Remington rifles, consigned bya
manufacturing firm in this city to the
Haytien government. Minister Preston
this morning positively refused to affirm
or deny the report telegraphed from
Jamaica last night, to the effect that a
crew under contract with him to take
possession of the seized steamer Hay
tan Republic, had arrived at Kingston.
The report is, however, credited in
shipping circles and is looked upon as a
wise movement of the Haytian minister.
1t is argued that this crew will at once
be sent to Port au Prince aud be placed
Immediately on the Haytian Republic.
The vessels head will then be headed
for New York. where she will arrive,
barring accidents, before the American
vessels, Galena and Yantic, can reach

sUMMARILY BOUNCED.
A Member OF the Iron Hand Ex-
plains the Situation.
nm the Editor OF the Globe.


Dear Sir: VIII you kindly allow me,
through the columns of your paper, to contra
dict few statements that appeared in last
Sundays Pioneer Press regarding the Order
of the Iron Hall? In the first place, Robert
Ross did not resign his position as account
ant although he was requested by major
ity of the members VINO thought it was for
the best interest of the branch for him to do
so; but when he refused he. was
deposed by a two thirds thirds vote OF s,,d the
expelled from the order for non-payment Of
dues and assessments. Since that time he
has openly done his best to bring the order
into disrepute. And for months previous TO
that time he was secretly trying TO discourage
the members and their friends, and doing all
he could to break up the order in ST. Paul.
At the same time in the branch meetings. he
was apparently the most enthusiastic MEM
Der in the branch, urging the members to
be regular in their attendance, to be more
active in bringing in new members, and
Boosting or the number of members he was
the means of bringing into the order and
telling of the great good the order was doing
throughout he country. 1t seems very
strange that as soon as he could not have his
own way in the branch. he then found
the order was not what it was cracked up
TO be- The order is fTdternal and beneyo-
lent organization, composed OF some of the
best men in the country, and not an
insurance company any more than
the odd Fellows, or Kindred societies,
1t has between 10000 and 10000 members,
and no matter if all the members of the
order in St Paul were TO drop out, IL would
not have any perceptible effect on the order
at large. The order throughout the East is
growing very rapidly, and especially in Mas
Sachusetts. One of its most earnest friends
and supporters is Gov. Ames, of Massa-
chusetts, who presided at the open meeting
when the branches in that state were recely-
ing their benefits. Robert Ross, the deposed
accountant of a local branch in
this city, when he found that
his oily tongue had no effect
on the intelligent members Of the order,
thought he would try what effect the press
would have, but he forgot the press is i'm
partial and will give the public both sides of
the question; and we respectfully ask that
the public will patiently await future devel
opments, and watch the courts of this city
in January. for one am proud OF being q
member of the Iron Hall, as no other institu-
ton in the country has done as much for its
members rs the Iron Hall. II has paid over
s., 600, 900 in benefits TO its members, and
has never protested legitimate claim, and
never will as long as the members live up 10
its principles of unity, protection and for
beaTance. Yours respectfully,
JAMES MORROW,

running their through sleepers from st.
Paul and Minneapolis TO st. Joseph,
the train leaving St. Paul at 1888 p. M,
arriving in st. Joseph at l: S5 p. m. the

for all California. West and Southwest
ern points. This train will be made up
of an entire new service, consisting of
Mann boudoir cars, which have been
built expressly for this run. These cars
are furnished with buffet and are made
up entirely of single rooms, which will
make the service complete. This. we
feel assured, will be appreciated by a
grateful public. New dining cars will
be placed upon this run. The Buffet
service attached TO the Mann cars will
supply passengers meals in the mean
time. Passengers taking this train will
be supplied with every comfort neces-
sary to make the journey agreeable,
and as this is decidedly the short line,
we have every reason to feel assured
that it will at once become q most pop
