THERE ARE MANY OBSTACLES
Canadian Annexation Discussed
by Senator Hoar.

BosToN, July 19.-Before the Massa-
chusetts club. at Points of Pines to-day,
Senator Hoar spoke at length on Cana
dian annexation. He did not think it
wise for us to under take too frequently
or too anxiously public discussion of
the question just now. If the pear be
unripe, 1t must ripen by the processes
of the climate and under the sun where
it grows and not elsewhere.
The senator outlined the differ
ences in the forms of government of
the two countries, in their political sys-
tens, and said that Great Britain is
undertaking to make of Canada great
link in the chain which she is weaving
around the planet of commerce and of
military power.
1t is something more than gathering a
plum or picking up ripe pear that we have
TO do when we annex Canada. There are
obstacles which have been enough to keep
Europe divided into sixty nationalities at
the present time, with which we are to con-
tend and which we must overcome before We
acquire Canada.

VIII Not Have to Wait.
Special to the GLOBE


CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., July ia
number of newspapers are circulating
the statement that the Sioux reserva-
ton cannot be opened until the land has
been surveyed. This is mistaken
idea, as the Sioux bill requires the pres
ident to issue a proclamation declaring
the land open to settlement as soon as
proof is presented to him that the re-
quired number of signatures has been
secured. The Sioux bill is nota law
until such proclamation Is issued, and
the 100000 app opriated by it for sur
veying the land will, of course, not be
such action. A great many townships
in the reservation near Chamberlain are
already surveyed. Settlers locating in
any other portion of the reservation
when thrown open will acquire squat
ters' rights.

An Alabama Outlaw Dies With
His Boots On, as Do Two Sheriffs.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, July 19.-For
several years a teud has existed be-
tween the families of Simpson and
Howton, in the extreme western por-
ton OF this county. 1t began by Tom
Simpson killing one of the Howton's,
for which he was tried in tine criminal
court here. A mis-trial resulted and
Simpson was released on bail, which he
subsequently forfeited. and reward
OF 500 was offered for his arrest.
The next tragedy was the death of an
other Howton by shot from ambush as
he was riding along the road. Recently
the officers of the law have been trying
to arrest Tom Simpson, who was known
to be in the vicinity of Mud creek.
Yesterday Sheriffs Glenn, Scroggins
and w. B. Morgan went down to Mud
creek and secured the assistance of two
Howtons, and last night surrounded
Simpson in gin house where he was
sleeping in company with another man
and a negro. At daylight Tom
came out looking around and was
promptly ordered by Deputy Seroggins
to throw up his hands and surrender.
Instead of doing so he rushed around the
house with bullet from Seroggins' pis-
toll whistling after him, and was met by
bullet from J. B. Howton'S gun and
fell dead. Almost at the same instant
two guns were fired from the gin house,
killing Deputy Morgan and fatally

THE WHEAT CROP.

There is rather too much Simultane-
BUSINESS in the reports of extreme short
age of the wheat crop in Dakota and
Canada with the kindred accounts from
the British grain dealers in regard to
the product in Russia and India. The
situation is evidently overdone in Da-
kota. The most recent reports of the
local papers all over the wheat district
fail to indicate such sweeping reduction
as the publications of the bulls would
have accepted. Two years ago the care
full compilations of the reports of local
agents by the commissioner of immigra-
ton gave total exceeding 62,O00, 900
bushels. Last year this was reduced
below 4O,000,000. There are some very
fine fields of wheat, but in no consider
able area is there such promise as two
wears ago. The districts where there is
entire widespread ruin to the crop are
generally in the newer and sparsely
settled regions where there has never
been large production. In most parts
of the Red river country the most relia-
BILE indications are that there will be
more wheat harvested than last year.
With the increased area. half crop
would give nearly 40,O00,0OO bushels.
There may be little wheat to export
from India and Russia, but Great
Britain and France, which are the
chief customers, are reported likely to
have 4O,OO0, 900 more bushels than last
wear, and there is considerable increase
in the winter wheat districts of this
country. There is no doubt shortage
in the wheat production of the world,
but if its proportions are so alarming as
the recent accounts indicate, the per-
sistent low figures of the market indi-
cate remarkable incrFdulity. Still. the
farmers who are able to retain their
wheat for time can have reasonable
assurance of more remunerative prices.

PARDON OF THE YoUNGERs.

The following are two out of nearly
200 letters from prominent citizens OF
Minnesota which have been sent to Gov.
Merriam in favor of pardOning one or all
of the Younger brothers,:
From Hon, Ignatius Donnelly, lex
member of cOngress)-To HiSExcellency,
Gov. Merriam-Dear Sir: l remember
an incident which occurred when the
Mortified robbers were seeking to eS-
cape from this state. In the woods, not
far from Mankato, they were encoun-
tered by citiZen-a German, think
who was looking for his cattle. The
them. The two associates of the Young
ers. who afterward escaped from the
state, proposed that, for their own
safety, they should kill the man. To
this the YoungerS strenuously objected.
1t was then suggested that he be gagged
and tied to tree in the depths of the
forest, and left there. The Youngers
replied that this would be more cruel
than to kill him outright, as
he might starve to death before
he was discovered by those who
might save him. Upon this question
the Youngers qnarreled with their two
associates in crime and separated. The
YOungers gave the man his life, but
swore him not to reveal the fact that he
had met them. He did not keep mis-
oath. always thought there was some
thing heroic in this action of these
fugitives from justice. AT a time when
the woods swarmed with their pursuers,
they were ready to risk their own lives
rather than take the life of that stran-
ger. 1t manifested noble humanity
when every circumstance Of their des-
perate situation melted them to cruelty
and bloodshed. Now, | am told the
youngest of these brothers, then a mere
boy in years, lies at the point Of death.
1t seems to me that you can now justly
remember that act of humanity per-
formed years ago in the woods of Blue
Earth county, and permit this poor
criminal to die outside the shadows of
the penitentiary, and in the midst of
those who love him. believe that such
an exercise of your executive clemency
will be justified by every humane heart
in the state. have the honor to be,

CHICAGO, July 19.-Chairman Walker
of the Interstate Commerce Railway
association, rendered decision to-day
in regard to the relative adjustment of
rates on bullion and ore from Colorado
points to the Missouri river. He ad-
vises the restoration of the bullion rate
to So per ton, it having lately been re-
duced to 81. and decides that with SUCH
a basis in effect on bullion, the rate on
ore should be So per ton. The Eastern
roads have agreed to advance the rate
on grain to the basis of 25 cents per 100
pounds, Chicago to New York, taking
effect Aug. 1. This does not include
corn, which. owing to the attitude OF
the Baltimore 4 Ohio, will remain on
the 20-cent basis until further notice by
all lines except the Chicago q Grand
Trunk. The latter road agrees to re-
store the rates on the date named, but
announces that it will apply the 25-cent
to all grain, corn included. The board
of directors of the Pullman Palace Car
company to-day declared the usual
