Wessington Springs herald. (Wessington Springs, Aurora County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-1891, 1889-02-01

LIEUT.. WIssa1AN, the eminent Ger
man traveller, says that Of late years a
great change has taken place in the
attitude of the Arabs of Africa toward
Europeans. The danger Of European
ascendency has made them very hos
tile, defiant and relentless. They no
longer hesitate to show that the right
belongs to them of carrying on the
slave trade, and that they mean to
exercise it. The slave dealers charged
Lieutenant Wissman to inform the
English on Lake Tanganyika that any
attempt on their part to interfere with
the traffic would bring war upon them,
The traveller is convinced that warlike
measures against the Arabs must be
resorted to if q secure foundation is
sought for the establishment of Euro
pean civilization in Africa.
Iris no light thing to disturb re-
ligious meeting in Georgia. The other
evening while prayer was being offered
in the Oconee Church the sharp snap
of an igniting match disturbed the
congregation. Just before the bene-
diction was pronounced the preacher
said: IF the young man who struck
that match will come forward after
services and acknowledge it, or say it
was accidental, we will excuse him:
but If he does not there is man in
this house who will sift it out. and il
will cost him more than one thousand
boxes of matches at wholesale" After
the benediction young man and
young woman walked forward, and the
youth said it was the young woman
who had done the awful deed. GLOW
did it happen, my sister," asked the
parson. She said: "Well, sir, I had
the match in my hand and was rubbing
it on the bench, not thinking of what I
was doing, and before I knew it the
thing went off. She was excused. IT.
is said that several years ago in a
church in Athens, Ca, a young man
was fined $500 for doing just what the
sister did.

Relieved at San Francis co.

SAN FRANCISCO, March a. Despite
the denials of the report which appeared
in the papers to the effect that an Amer
lean war vessel had been blown up with
a torpedo during a fight with the Ger
man corvette Olga at Samoa, opinion
here is strongly inclined to place reli-
ance in the rumor, and people ara great
ly excited. Private advices received
here furnish strong grounds for belief
in the truth of the report. These ad-
vices are that the New York Herald is
in receipt OF a telegram from James
Gordon Bennett, at Paris, confirming
the cablegram. 1t is currently reported
here that a naval officer at Washington
telegraphed to al officer at the Mare ISL
and navy yard here, confirming the dis
patch. Naval officers at this port say
the German gunboats did carry torpe-
does. None of the American vessels
now on the way to Samoa are supplied
with these missiles.

Destructive Fire at Louisvtne.

LOUISVILLE, KY, March 9.-The most
disastrous fire in loss Of property that
has occurred here in seven years, broke
out in the basement of Kleinhans d 81
monson's clothing house on West Mar
ket street. In fifteen minutes the blaze
had spread through three large stores
and was leaping through the roof. Soon
after the roof fell and a little later tive
large sections of the side walls. With
mi of these the real of Strauss dry
goods house went down. A strong west
wind was blowing, and when the rear
of the Strauss store fell in, sending a
q OF flames upon the loose structures
in the center of the block, it seemed in
evitable that the block should all burn.
After a hard fight, however, the firemen
gained control and confaed the flames
to the Strauss place. One fireman was
painfully and another slightly hurt.
Kleinhans q Simonson's loss on stock
is $685., 900; buildings, $67, 900; Newcomb
building, S25, 600; Strauss stock, $40, 600;
Churchill building, $4,000. The insur-
ance amounts to about S255, GIT.

startling Developments Looked For.


MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, March 9.-The
Chicago Milwaukee and st. Paul officials
issued a secret order reducing the wages
OF a large number of employees 33h per
cent. The exact number affected is not
known, but it is understood the rsduc-
ton is confined principally to agents
and clerks. There is also q feeling that
other employees of the road will soon be
called tc share in the entrenchmsnt.
Coming as it does just after the prelim-
mary announcement of the bad finan-
cial condition of the road, the cut has
an especial Significance. 1t will be re-
membered the Milwaukee passed its
dividend last October for the first time
IN years, the action creating no end OF
excitement in financial circles through
out this country and England. Some
OF the English stockholders have been
stirring up the matter Of late with an
energy that oven President Miller's visit
to England failed to pacify. Another
significant fact is that a special meeting
OF the board of directors of the company
has been called for next Tuesday in Mil
waukee. Such a call is quite unprece.
denied in the history Of the road and
developments Of a startling nature are
looked for.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. s~ersnaded

WASHINGTON, March 9.--The routine
ofthe reception which Gen. Noble, Sec
rotary Of the interior, continues to hold,
was broken. or rather the seat of opera
tions was changed, as he went to the
pension Office and was introduced to the
1900 employees there. He makes a good
impression on everybody whom he
meets. He has a kindly face and a
courteous manner, and is disposed to
hear everything a visitor wishes to say.
The line of callers becomes. therefore,
a rather slow one, and his waiting room
is generally crowded. He had no time
yesterday to attend to department bust
ness, but he is getting ready to make
some appointments, which will be an
nounced in q day or two. The large
number of important bureaus in the in
terror department offer some attractive
places to off~ice-seekers, and Secretary
Noble has been interviewed exhaustive
~ by the candidates and their friends.
The head of the general land Office is an
office of considerable Importance and
there is a small army Of applicants.
Gen. Stone Of Iowa and ex-senator Chill
colt of Colorado are among those men
toned for the place.
A strong effort is being made for the
retention Of Indian Commissioners Ober-
ly. The Indian Rights association, the
Quakers. and other philanthropically in
terested in the Indians, are said to be
strongly backing Mr.. Oberly.

early date he requested the people Of

quite late, and finally when they did
present some names they stated spe-
officially that no other position in the
cabinet would be acceptable to them
but the secretary of the interior or at
torney -~generalship. These offices Pres
ident Harrison had decided upon. This.
he says, is the reason why the Pacific
slope did not have a representative in

position taken by the counsel of Gov

clare him governors; that the whole

The Republican side insists chat the
