REFUSED TO RECOGNIZE.
WASHINGTON, December 1.-THE state
department has been informed that the
Mexican government has refused to grant
an exequatur to Eugene 0. Frehtel, of
Michigan, as United States CONSUL at
Piedras Negras. No reason was assigned,
but it is understood that the refusal to
recognize Mr.. Frehtel is owing to some
trouble ne was involved in with citizens of
Paso Del Norte when he was consul under
the last administration. The department
recognizes the right of the Mexican govern
ment to take this course, as it is entirely
within diplomatic practice for a govern
ment to decline to receive consuls who are
not acceptable.

AFRICAN RUNNERS,
Messengers Whose Powers OF Endurance
Are Simply Marvellous.

Messengers Whose Powers OF Endurance @
| Are Simply Marvellous.
| The Arab couriers of the Sultan of
Morocco are required to make on foot
the distance between Tangier and Fee,
about one hundred and fifty miles by
turtuous roads, climbing big mount
| aims and swimming bridgeless rivers,
in three and one-half days. They
would be apt to regard the tanbark in
Madison Square Garden as a regular
picnic, and they would not require any
rubbing down or other attention. Their
little doura cakes would suffice for
nutriment, and when they retired for a
three hours snooze a cord tied to
foot and set on fire at the other end
would wake them at the proper time.
Then there are King Khama's postal
runners in Bechuanaland. They are
short-distance pedestrians, but they
are rafting travellers oyer the rough
est of roads, and, toughened by long
experience, they would probably do well
in q six-days' burst of speed. They
afeplaced fifteen miles apart between
sfnosapass His Majesty's capital. and
Kimberly, and they get the royal mail
over 80 ground at the rate of 1870
milesa day, without any star-route ex-
pediting.
But human endurance is seldom test
ed so severely .as among the postal
of the Chinese Government
between Pekin and Lhassa. These
are picked and trained
men, who in times of great urgency
are required to cover the $500 miles
between the two capitals on horseback
N thirty-six days, OR 125 miles day.
The messengers letters, inclosed in a
yellow bag, are never taken off his
pack except when he changes his dress,
'nce week. He changes horses every
ew miles, eats and sleeps in postal
stations, is under the most rigid re-
trictions as to articles of diet and Ia
'ermitted to sleep only four hours a
lay. This remarkable feat is said to
'e accomplished whenever there is need
# special dispatch, but on ordinary oc-
asions just double the time is given
o the journey.-Detrot Free Press.

LECTURE FORBIDDEN.
Chicago Police Forbid n Lecture By Mrs
Lucy Parsons,


Lucy Parsons.
CHICAGO, Dec. 2T.-Handbills were wide-
ly distributed yesterday, announcing that
Mrs. Lucy Parsons the wife of the execu-
ted anarchist, would lecture in Waverly
Hall last night. One of the bills was
handed to Chief of Police Hubbard, who
sent Lieutenant Laughlin to Mr.. Laurie
the proprietor of the hall, with instructions a
to order him not to open the place. Mr..
Laurie was not satisfied with the message
and called Immediately upon the chief. "T
shall send an officer to you to- night" said
the chief to Mr.. Laurie, "who will demand
the key of the hall from you. He willthen
station policeman at the door, who will
forbid admission to the hall. You are per-
iectly helpless in the matter and any re-
sponsibility there is will be upon the
police"
The wording of the subject of the lecture
was trifie ambiguous, in that it mightin-
ciude any Or all phases of Anarchy and
Socialism. There was no doubt in the
minds of the police that Mrs. Parsons in
tended to say something to cause her ar
rest.
Said Chief Hubbard: "Mrs. Parsons can
advertise herself all she pleases, but we
VIII not help her to do it. We have
private information that she intended
to make violent Anarchistic harangue,
Then we would have been compelled
to arrest her, and you can be sure
that it would have been magnified in
every way by the Anarchists in the argu-
nent of their injunction suit to-day. The
attempted lecture was simply for effect.
1t is we'll known that Mrs. Parsons can not |
'efrain from talking of Anarchy if she |
gets chance, and we will not experiments
With her further. She simply can not

Inc Congressman Not Discouraged Over
! Oklahoma Prospects.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-The story now
oeing extensively published in Western
papers that Mr.. Springer had abandoned
Inc nope OF securing the passage of the
okiahoma bill at the present session is en-
tlrely without foundation. On the con-
trary, the prospects for the early passage
OF that measure seem never so favorable
as now. The bill is the first business in
order on ne1tsuspension day-January =
ana also IN Committee of the Whole and
notices were mailed yesterday to all the
members, requesting their presence imme-
diately after the recess in order to insure
luli House and favorable action on the
BILL
1t is the universal opinion here that the
bill has gained in strength, because of the
filibustering tactics of the small minority.
which have thus far prevented final vote.
and it is estimated that under the worst
circumstances not more than 40 votes
can be mustered in the House against the
Dill. with the probability that the oppo-
sitlon vote will be much less than that
number.
In regard to the prospects of the bill Mr..
Springer said yesterday: 81 can not con-
celve how this report originated that I
expressed an opinion that the Oklahoma
Dill was not likely to pass. No such opin-
Ion was ever entertained by me- was
never more confident than now that the |
Dill will pass and by majority that |
VIII astonish the special interests which
are the chief source of opposition.
The bill has the advantage both
in Committee of the Whole and on
su uspension day and its friends, consisting
OF at least three-quarters of tue House, will
push it to final vote in spite of the fill
buster. Ii it has come to this that less
tnan half dozen members can prevent, by
ABUSE OF the rules of the House, the passage
Of bill of National Importance ia which
millions of people are deeply interested
then the rules must be and will be changed.
The Oklahoma bill will he pressed to a
inal vote, and, in my Judgment, at an
early day.

and rescued her at the peril of his life.
