Our reports Of last week fail to show any

verify Of the winter aud the long period Of
spring freezing and thaW.ng The country
Is nearly bare Of forage from last years

been barely able 10 carry their stock
through the gu,ss. The prospects for
fruit, especially small fruits, is reported

more proptious there II yet chance for
the making Of n iull crop In all farm
products, winter wheat alone excepted.
which must fall considerably below an ay.

jagged pieces OF crumbling walls, all scared
and cracked with heat The fire ragged
during all of yesterday, and although con!

destroyed, continued TO burn during last
night and this morning.
A strict watch was kept over the ilamcs
to prevent their doing further damage, and
with the exception Of the guards no ond
stirred upon the streets OF Winona this
evening all being worn out with the ex.
element, work and misfortunes Of thu
day. The fine was ilrst discovered by tha
night operator at the depot, and appeared
TO bc raging on the poitico OF the old City
hotel. by the time assistance could ba
summoned the entire building was in
flames. As no fire had been used in the
old hotel for many days and as the portico
appeared to have burned first, it is gen.
orally thought to have been the deed Of an
inccndiary. But for the heroic work Of
both men and women many dwellings

Some sound Talk About uis Chances
for the Presidency

Special Dispatch 10 The Appeal
wAsmNoToS, April 22.-Accompanying
the estimate Of Mr.. Sherman's strength ~
n candidate for the Republican nomination
for President, printed this morning, is the
announcement that tho senator's following
Is loyal rs well rs large, and can he relied
upon 10 stand by him through all the
storms and stress OF National convention.
The idea sought TO be conveyed is, tnat
the Sherman men at Chicago this year arc
10 form an "old guard, ready for any and
all emergencies, and be prepared 10 take
all risks in support Of their candidate.
Their claim a. TO numbers II that Mr..
Sherman already has 32l votes out Of the
al necessary for a choice, and that his
column Is growing daily.
The whole story proyokes the smiles Of
the best posted Republican politicians here.
They regard Il as a broad but an inefficient
bluff and fancy they see into the real dis
couaging size Of the Sherman campaign.
The situation has never been assuring for
Mr. Sherman and II Is less ~ today than
ever before In the whole history Of his
candidacy. la the estimate put forth the
whole south is counted for him, when, ~
a matter of fact, divisions have afison In

Special Dispatch TO The Appeal,
WASHINGTON, April 22.-Represen,ative
Enloe, OH the invitation OF Mr. Hatch,
chairman Of the committee on agriculture,
Saturday made a constitutional argument
before that committee to snow that il was
in the power of Congress TO control and
prevent dealing in futures Of agricultural
products. His argument was that buying
and selling were the proper subjects of
regulation under that clause Of the consti-
tuition which gives Congress power to reg
ulate commerce among the States and with
foreign nations. Nearly every decision un-
der this clause ailirms the only part Of the
power deemed questionable, the power to
regulate transportation and navigation, and
70 this time the question as to the power
to regulate buying and selling has never
been reached, though positively as.
serted by eminent authorities cited,
that Congress has full, complete
and exclusive power TO regulate
commerce between the States has been re-
peatedly affirmed by the supreme court Of
the United States. He maintained that
buying and selling constitutes the very cs-
sence of commerce, while transportation IL
only incidental TO commerce. He insisted
that II Congress had power 10 regulate in
cidept, one OF the means or agencies used
in promoting commerce, II must have the
power 10 regulate the very thing itself.
To deny that would be 10 deny the plain.
est import Of the language OF the constitu-
ton. lie maintained that the making OF
these contracts enabled spectators 20 die
tate the prices OF products, inst Ia the pro-
ducer and then 10 the consumer, 10 the
detriment Of the south, and that in the
combination made in order to effect these
purposes the products Of the soil were
often locked up and withheld from the
regular channels Of trade for an indefinite
period, subject 10 the viii ofconscienceless
trusts and combines, thereby obstructing
and interfering with the freedom
Of commerce among the States and with
foreign nations. lie insists that II tho
power could not be found in the constitu.
ton 10 deal with great tr,e's ON the one
hand that are formed 90 ltnit all produc
ton and 10 enhance the pI .ce Of everythin,
the farmer has 10 buy, AMI the cliqucs m,

then no time should be lost in amending

Mr.. Enloc asyery highly complimentod
on his speech at itsconclusion. Chairman
Hatch said that his argument was very
strong one and he had presented II In q
manner botter than any hc had ever lis.

CONVENTIONAL Program.

WASHINGTON, April 22.--A caucus TO ar
range an order Of business for the House
will probably be held early in the week.
Pending It's action II is hardly possible 10
predict the course OF business during the
week further than IL will probably consist
Of debate on the tariff bill with night ses-
sions and occasional gaps which will bc
filled in with action ON appropriations bill.
II is likely that the district committee
will be allowed Monday for the transaction
of local legislation, and the river and har-
Dor bill, left unfinished.
The animal industry bill il the unflnish-
cd business OF the Senate. When IL IN dis
posed OF, Senator Platt will seek TO bring
forward the North Dakota bill, and Sena-
tor Chaco will try 10 get hearing for his
international copyright hill. Senator
Plumb will endcayor 10 have the bill to
forfeit unearncd land grants brought up
in the morning hous, II no better oppor-
tunity offers
II Is expected that debate on the fisheries
treaty will begin before the end Of the
week
