Manager Hart of milwaukee Says the
Western League VIII Disband-Dented.
MILWAUKEE, July 9-It is said that the
Western Base Ball league is about ready to
break up. All clubs except Kansas City are
deeply in debt and are running behind. st.
Paul is $1,000, Chicago could not get even
on less than $4,000, Minneapolis is said to
be between 81 81 and S., 600 out and Omaha
and Des Moines are behind to the extent of
$1,000 or were SO up to July 4th. The Mil
waukee manager, Hart. says he is, $1,000
short of expenses SO far and the outlook all
around is bad.
ST. PAUL, July 9.-Secretary Poupeny
of the st. Paul club was seen respecting
the above dispatch and he declared it to be
false from beginning to end. The dispatch
Is due to despondency in which Manager
Hart of the Milwaukee club has fallen
owing to his losing several games of late.
His talk about the Western league going
to pieces is bOsh. As to the financial con-
dition Of the clubs he was in a position to
state that the st. Paul club is money ahead.
The Chicago club is about even and 60 is
Des MOines and probably Minneapolis.
The Omaha and Milwaukee clubs are each
something less than 81 600 behind.

on cotton thread, yarns and wafps except
in the case of the higher grades, where

advocated by Messrs. Lehlbaoh of New

DIVISION AND STATEHOOD.
A Rather Slim Attendance in the Con
vention at Huron.

A Rather Slim Attendance in the Con-
vention at Huron.
HURON, OAK, July 1O.-The delegates
to the division and statehood convention
were slow and it was 2:O5 before Hon. Hugh
j. Campbell called the convention to order.
Hon. Waldo NJ. Potter of Fargo was chosen
temporary chairman. He made brief but
spirited address. He said that he had been
several years in favor of division and the
admission of the territory as two separate
states. He said that Dakota was altogether
too large for one state. He accounted for
the light attendance of delegates present
at this convention because of the long dis
tances from one point in the territory to
another. This had always been true in
past Dakota conventions. He spoke of the
sectional interests of the territory which
he said demanded division and the incom-
ing of the great territory as separate states.
He had fought for division alone and single
handed in North Dakota. At the compile
tion of the chairman's address, w. 81.
Lyon OF Sioux Falls was elected secretary
and Joseph Allen of Turner county, John
Fogarty of Yankton and H.. H. Sheets Of
Kingsbury were named as the credentials
committee. D. NJ. Groz of Yankton moved
that committee of five on permanent or
ganization be appointed by the chair,
which was carried. The following were
named: D. N. Groz, Yankton; j. A. Owen,
kiiinge;s:bbury; iie;:b w; 3. Lyon. Minnehaha; u. III.
Shutliff and E. II. Withee, Turner. A
recess was then taken to give the creden-
tials committee time to complete the work.
After recess the credentials committee
reported, ten counties presenting creden-
tlals. The committee on permanent organ
ization recommended Hugh j. Campbell
for chairman, E. w. Caldwell for secretary.
Adopted. Judge Campbell spoke briefly
and read telegram Of sympathy from
Colonel Plummer. On motion of Mr. POin-
dexter committee of twenty-one. headed
by Caldwell, was appointed to formulate
a plan of action. A recess was then taken
to 8 p. m. and the committee not yet being
ready to report, adjourned to 10 a. M. to-
morrow. 1t is thought the committee will
not favor the immediate setting Of state
government in operation.

thought that his amendment ought to be
adopted, although he supposed it would
not. Mr.. Dingleys Of Maine. ,ofte.ed an

Payne of Pennsylvania hoped that the
Dingley proposition would prove accepta-
BILE to every republican and democrat on
the floor. The present duty Yves 81 per
cent, the Mills bill proposed 6S per cent.
and the DINGHY amendment Al per cent,
which i2self was high duty on neces-
ssary of life. Mr.. Breckenridge of Arkan-
sas was glad to hear the gentleman on the
other side admit that Al per cent. was
sufficiently high duty on necessary of
life. Mr.. Houk Of Tennessee said it made

Mr.. McC denied to the miners

peared in the Mills bill. Mr.. Cannon's
amendment was rejected. Mr.. Weber of
New York offered an amendmnnt provid-
ing that no drawback shall be allowed on
sugar exported from the United States.
He said the original bill contained this pro-
vision. Mr.. Weber's amendment being
rejected, he offered another requiring
drawbacks to be paid upon the polariscopic
test, saying that this was the resort of the
sugar trusts, and the gentlemen on the
other side now had an opportunity to free
themselves from the suspicious which
would become certainty if they voted
down his proposition. Mr.. Mills replied
that the treasury officials already had the
authority to make polariscopic tests. After
further debate the amendment was rejected.
This concluded the consideration on the
sugar clauses. The next paragraph, relat-
ing to tobacco, was on Mr.. Mills motion
left open for action. Mr.. Nutting of New
York moved to strike out the starch pro-
vision. Pending vote the house ad-

They were presented by Col. L. NJ. Ward,
who was q Michigan delegate to the Chi

short address in reference to Michigan.
General Harrison said: 'This visit, my
friends, is exceptional in many of its fea-
lures. Already in the brief time since my
nomination I have received various dele
cations, but this is the first delegation that
has visited me outside the borders of my
own state. Your visit is also exceptional
and very gratifying in that you have
brought with you the ladies of your fami-
lies to grace the occasion and honor me by
their presence. I am glad to know that
while the result of the convention at Chi
cago brought disappointment to you it has
left no sores that need the ointment of
time for healing. Your own favored citi-
zen, distinguished civilian and brave
soldier, General Alger, was among the

to me his congratulations and the assur-
ance Of his earnest support in the cam

OF the republican party has always been

Firemen's Brotherhood, were arrested at
their rooms in the National hotel this
morning. The prisoners were taken COM
pletely by surprise. Both men were taken
to police headquarters and locked up. The
two chiefs are charged with conspiracy.
The much talked of circular, in which
Hoge is alleged to have urged Brotherhood

the basis Of the charge against Hoge.

The Hearing Postponed.
ST. LOUIS, July 11.-Dispatches from
Topeka say that the hearing on the appli-
cation for writ of habeas corpus in behalf
of Moore and Mrs. Norton has been post
poned by Judge Guthrie till tomorrow.
Mrs. Norton is said to be very nervous to-
day and still clings closer to Moore and
most fervently AYERS that she will not be
separated from him. Mrs. Caswell had an
other interview with her this forenoon, but
her pleadings to the erring woman were of
no avail. She is determined to stand by
her love. Both she and Moore vehemently
deny reports in circulation about the
amount of money and valuables taken by
them from st. Louis. Mrs. Norton says the
money she has is her own, but she is will
ing to give up certain deeds to property
given her by her husband. Moore and

the officers that complaint was filed BY
County Attorney Curtis late last evening

penalty at not less than $500 or not more

DAKOTA DEMOcRArs.
John J. Hardin of Jersuld County Nom
mated for Delegate.


mated for Delegate.
JAMESTOWN, OAK, July 11.-There is q
good attendance at the democratic terri
torial convention, a large number arriving
from South Dakota last:night. Good feel.
ing prevails and but two contests have
yet been developed from Traill coun-
ty headed by Bud Reeves and DR.. Faulk,
and the other from Douglas county. Judge
Beaker of Fargo opened headquarters yes
terday as candidate for delegate to con-
gress, but is making slow headway. There
is strong sentiment for Hardin of Jer-
auld county, and indications point to his
nomination on the first ballot. The plat
form will endorse the national platform
with perhaps one-state plank, though the
sentiment of the delegates is about equally
divided on this point. The proposition to
leave the selection of chairman of the new
territorial committee to the central COM
mittee itself is received favorably. There
is general disposition to let the dead past
of the Watertown convention bury its
dead and both sides are conciliatory. j.
M. Quinn of Bismarck, Abe BOyntOn of
Canton, Major Barrett of Aberdeen, Mar
tin Ryan OF Fargo, Sheafe of Watertown,
Arnold of Gettysburg, Bangs of Grand
Forks and Judge Bennett of Baltimore are
among the old war houses present. Ow-
ing to the late arrival of Chairman Bangs
the central committee had no meeting this
forenoon and will not hold one before the
convention meets. The following are rea-
sOnable predictions as to the action of the
convention: Martin Ryan, Fargo, tempor-
ary secretary. Hardin is still in the lead
for the nomination for congress and efforts
are being made to ha1mOnize his division
sentiments with the proposed platform,
which will probably contain plank favor
ing one state with conditional act em.
pOWering the people to vote on division
of the state after admission as whole.
HARDIN NOMINATED.
The committee on resolutions reported a
long platform indorsing the action of the
st. Louis convention and the action of
Church in refusing to allow expenditures
in excess of appropriations for the main
tenance of public institutions, and in his
efforts to make railroads pay taxes on
lands hitherto exempt. Also declaring for
admission as one state, but submitting the
question of division to a vote of the people.
A resolution presented by Peemiller of
YanktOn, in favor of high license, was
promptly tabled. Handley of Beadle NOM
mated John j. Hardin of Jerauld county
for delegate, and there being no other
nomination he got it by reclamation, Mar
tin Ryan of Fargo was made chairman of
the territorial committee.

of associations of teachers for mutual i'm
provement, and to hold annually in each
county, for term of not less than four
weeks, a Normal Institute for the instruc-
ton of teachers and those desiring to
teach. No person is permitted to give in
ers of certificates from the State Board
of Education, given especially for this
work The intention of the law being
to make the Normal Institute a model
school. To meet the expense of these
institutes, the State makes an annual ap-
preparation of fifty dollars to each cOun-
ty. and each county is authorized to APP
propriate not to exceed one hundred dol
lars; each person attending is charged
one dollar as an enrolment fee, and every
applicant for teachers certificate pays
one dollar. These make up the fund for
Normal Institutes, which have been of the
greatest assistance in elevating the
schools of the state.
In each county there is board of ex-
aminers, composed of the County Super
intendcnt aud two associates, holders
of first grade certificates. whose duty it
is to examine all applicants for certifi-
Gates to teach in the common schools.
There are four examinations each year,
