A Truce Called.

WASHINGTON, d. c., August 9.-The enc
mics OF reciprocity have put out the white
flag. They want a truce called until an un-
oerstanding can be reached. Speaker Reed
may still be defiant, but his following in the
house isn't. Minnesota, Nebraska, North
Dakota, California. Illinois and Kansas,
through state or congressional conventions.
have declared in favor of Mr.. Blaine's ideas,
and western members are beginning to see
the light and follow after it. One PROPOSE
ton, which Is said to meet Major MeKlnley's
view, is that instead of making sugar free
for year on condition of reimposing the
duty against non-reciprocity countries the
cut should be simply one-half OF the present
rate. This, it is declared, would cheaper
sugar to consumers, and at the same time
would encourage the sugar producing coun-
cessions in favor of American breadstutfs.
more strongly against half way arrangements
good sized party is forming in the house,
which will insist on having direct express
sion. 1t is possible that Speaker Reed and
the majority of the committee on rules may
yet be forced to give the foreign affairs COM.

the resolution of Mr.. Hitt-that the house
would view with favor reciprocity treaties

A Royal Visit,

LONDON, August 6.-The German imperial
yacht, Hohenzollern, with Emperor William
and his brother, Prince Henry, on board,
arrived at Osborne and the queen signaled
''Welcome'' to his majesty from Osborne
house, her palace on the Isle of Wight, as
the yacht entered Cowes roads. The Prince
of Wales and Duke of Connaught, on board
the royal yacht Albert, went out to meet the
emperor. A number of other members of
the royal family awaited his arrival on the
private landing stage. One German IRON
clad accompanied the Hohenzollern. She
was accompanied into the harbor by five
British torpedo boats. As the emporer landed
a salute was fired. Entering a carriage his
majesty drove to Osborne house. where the
queen, the princess of Wales and the duch-
ess of Edinburg received him at the entrance.
As he entered the band played the German
and English national anthems. The en-
peror wore his British admiral's uniform.

The first and last days of - week vcre
characterized by hot days and some hot
winds, while the central days were cool.
Much sunshine has prevailed.
Though the rains this week are too late To
affect corn materially, except to help ELL out
where not too ripe, they have put the ground
into shape for fall plowing over q large part
of the state, advantage of which has promptly
been taken, and the farmers are working
full.force, preparing the ground for sowing
wheat and rye for fall pasture, and the haf-
vest of 1891.
Haying is in progress. but tho hay is light,
and in some sections failure.
The drouth in the southeastern counties is
seriously affecting the fruit trees, and in
Cowley, Sumner and Kln9man the first crop
is now much injured from this cause. In
Coffey, the threshing machine gives wheat 10
to 25 bushels per acre, oats 25 to A, and fax
8 to 16; in this county corn gives fair PROM
ise, and farmers are purchasing hogs to feed.

INCREASE OF PENSIONERS.
Two Hundred and Eighty Thousand
Applications Under the New Act.

Two Hundred and Eighty Thousand
Applications Under the New Act.
WASHINGTON, d. c., August 6.-The new
dependent pension law has been in force but
a little over a month and already about $780,
900 applications for pensions have been filed
under it. One third OF these, a pension ex-
pert said, were cases that were already on
file in the pension Office, but had to be filed
again in accordance with the provisions of
the law. One-half of the other two thirds
will probably be rejected. Before the end
of the year." the expert continued, 81 ex-
pect to see 100000 applications for pensions
filed under the new law, and by the end OF
eighteen months there will be half a million
cases. OF the cases that are filed earliest a
large proportion are likely to be more sue
cessful than those filed later on. As far as
we can get at it there are now about 100000
men living who enlisted in the union armies
and saw some service. large majority of
these may become entitled to a pension under
the dependent law. but it is not probable.
The average age of the living veterans of the
late war is now about 53 years. i have list
of the survivors of our regiment. You see,
the youngest man in it is 43. He enlisted in
1865, just before the army was disbanded.
The ages range from 43 to 65 and even 20.
We have no data to show the average age at
which the veterans die, but it has been the
experience IN England as well as here that
men who endure the hardshlps of the war
without contracting serious disease or re-
ceiving dangerous wounds became SO tough
ened that they are likely to live to good old
age. The new census will throw great deal
of light on tine question of the number of
veterans living and the dependent widows
and children of those dead. When We get
these figures, better idea may be formed of
the probable amounts that will be needed to
meet the expenditures under the new law"

over to the scheme of reciprocity. Mr.. Nc
kinley has had long interview at the Whits
Aouse. at the invitation of the president, and
i is understood that the matter was fully
discussed. That the president and Mr..
Blains are thoroughly agreed upon the sub
iect there is no doubt, notwithstanding Ger
lain sensational dispatches, to the contrary.
The president has been in accord with Sec
retary Blaine In general way upon the sub
iect from the beginning. and their only diff
ferences have been as to tho desired extent
Of reciprocity, the best plan of procedure
and the consequent details. It is said the
president was at first rather inclined to stop
at the Pierce amendment. which simply pro-
posed that sugar should be put upon the free
list, and that the president should have power

year against such sugar producing countries

ducts, of the United States. Mr.. Blaine was
originally in favor of about the plan after

posed to make the period two years and to
extend the retaliatory power of the president
not only to sugar but to MANILA and sisal
grass, which are placed upon the free list by
the Mckinley bill, and to coffee, rubber,
cocoa and hides, already on the free list un-
der the existing law.
Before message is sent to congress on
the subject, it is probable that Chairman Nc
kinley, Speaker Reed and other republican
leaders Of the house will be invited individ u
ally to a conference with the pres ident, and
it is hoped to win them over. The senate is
believed to be favorable, and if the lead ers
of the house can be secured. reciproc ity
in some shape will go through before the
present session closes.

Making a Flash Light,

DENVER, Col. August 6.-Chemicals ex-
ploded in the Office of the Denver Fire Brick
and Chemical Supply house. The entire
front of the building was blown out and
men passing in front of the store at the time
were hurled across the street and badly in
iured. The building took fire instantly, and
when partly extinguished, a body was found
burned to crisp, and identified a. that of ].
0. Bosworth.
No others were killed. thoagh several had
narrow escapes from being caught in the
flames. Mr.. Bosworth was working in the
center of the room, making flash light, and
the explosion of the chemicals he was using
must have caused instant death, as one arm
was blown off and the skull horribly crushed.

Fusion.

TOPEKA, KAN, August At the annual
meeting of the state organization of the
the Knights of Labor, held at Representative
hall, about seventy-five delegates were pres
ent, principally from Topeka. Kansas City,
Kan, Leavenworth, Atchison, Fort Scott,
Wichita, Emporia, Parsons, Junction City
and Ottawa. The object of the meeting was
to put the Knights of Labor into closer rela-
tions with the Farmers alliance, with which
organization a political alliance has been
effected. r. G. st. Clair, of Atchison, mas
ter workman. presided. w. ID. Anderson,
also of Atchison, acted as secretary. An
open meeting was held in the afternoon, at
which addresses were made by j. F. Willis,
John Davis, w. H. Utley and others.

Negroes Not Voting,

BIRM1NGHAM, Ala, August Returns
from all over the state indicate large dem
ocratic victory. In Jefferson county very
few negroes came to the polls, stating that
they did not care to vote. A special from
Selma says that there was danger of serious
trouble at one time in the afternoon.
The negroes had planned to capture the
ballot box at Suffard, when the polls closed,
and few armed men from Selma, under
orders from the sheriff, went out and dis
persed the mob and brought in the box. The
negroes dispersed quietly.

W.sK1NGTcN. D. c., August 6.-The senate
will continue the consideration of the tariff
bill until Friday, when Mr.. Frye, the
chairman of the commerce committee, has
given notice that he will ask that the river
and harbor bill be taken up and disposed of.
The river and harbor bill will not take less
than two days debate, and the debate may
extend week, particularly if the democratic
policy Of obstruction is carried out. The
consideration of the tariff bill may be inter-
rupted by the presentation of the conference
report on the land grant forfeiture bill, or
the conference report on the original pack
age bill. Either of these may lead to ex-
tended debate; so the prospects of making
much progress with the tariff bill this week
are not very good. II may be that the re-
publican caucus may get together, in view of
the slowness of the debate on the bill thus
far, and agree to put before the senate
proposition for adopting rule under which
the previous question can be called. This Is
not regarded as probable by those-and they
are in the naiority-who think that the fed
eral election bill is to be shelved by agree
ment until the next session or congress.
The business that may be transacted in
the house will depend largely upon the pres
ence and maintenance of quorum. There
are number of matters waiting and claim
ing the attention of the house. but just which
particular matter will receive attention first
it is difficult to predict. There is disposi-
ton on the part of majority to dispose of
the conference report on the ''original pack
age" bill. the compound lard" bill, and
several contested election cases. The gen.
eral deficiency bill and the Indian appropri-
alton bill, with senate amendments are
awaiting action of the house, and some other
matters not likely to arouse party feeling are
likely to be considered, even in the absence
and that the general deficiency bill, which
will be brought before the house, will occupy
its time for several days, and will be dis
posed of during the week.

Sold to Indians.

ToprKA, KAN, August 9.-The United
States of America has interfered with three
of Topeka's original package dealers, but
not in their behalf. Charles Rahrer, Jacob
Leon and Fred Bobecker were arrested upon
warrants issued by United States Commits
sioner E. A. WAGNER, charging them each
with having sold spirituous hquors to Indians
of the Pottawatomie reservation under the
charge of John Blair, Indian Agent.
They were taken before Commissioner
Wagner, at his Office in the government
building, and their bond for appearance was
placed at $500 each.
Leon gave the required bond and his case
is set for hearing September 4, at 10 q. m.
Rahrer also furnished the bond and his case
will be heard September Is. at 10 q. m. Bo-
becker has not Jet given bond, but has noti-
He'd his superion at Kansas City, and b Ox-
pects relief from that source.

Suffering In Oklahoma.

WASHINGTON, d. c., August THE farm
ers in Oklahoma territory must be in very
bad straits indeed. judging by the petitions
that are being daily received by congress-
They pray that congress pass a bill giving
them years rations. They set forth in
their petition that their distress is due to the
fact that last year they did not go into
the territory in time to raise crop, and a
total failure this season. on account of
drouth, places them in position verging on
starvation. As they express it in their appeal
to congress: 'We must have relief or starve."

The Substitute Bill.

WASHINGTON, d. c., August 9.-The SUBJ
stitute for the Lodge election bill, which
Senator Hoar reported to the senate, is sew
enteen pages shorter than the bill which
passed the house. Among the changes which
the senate committee made are the follow
ing:
All reference to the section of the revised
statutes, which, it was claimed, provided for
the presence of troops at the polls was
stricken out, so that there is no change from
the present law in this respect.
The house-to-house canvas, provided for
in the house bill, was stricken out.
The provisions for drawing iuries by COM
missioner was omitted, leaving the law as at
present on the books.
The penal offences were simplihed and
made misdemeanors instead of felonies. The
punishments were modified, the highest pun
ishment imposed being three years impris-
onment and fine Of $1,000. as against i'm
prisonment five years and fine of s., 600 in
house hill.
The Judge of the circuit court before whom
appeal is made for supervision is authorized
to make appointments as supervisors any
persons he may see tit, not being confined in
his selection to the lists furnished by the
chief supervisor.
In cases where ballots were cast in the
wrong box they are not to be counted unless
the tally sheet shows that votes for congress
men do not equal the number of names on
the poll list, then enough of votes so wrongly
cast shall be added to the latter sheet to
make the total equal to the whole number of
votes shown to be cast.
Where the election officers refuse to ad-
minister the oath to voters applying therefor,
it is provided in the bill that the supervisors
shall administer the oath, and keep Q record
thereof. but no effort shall be made to have
the vote thus refused cast. the object being
merely to preserve the testimony of the ap-
plication and refusal.

CHICAGO, August 12.-The saloon keepers
of the city are unhappy because they have
failed to reap the harvest which they had ex-
pected from the cantoament of the Patriarchs
MilitanA They were among the first to
decorate their establishments, and the en-
bellishments of many of the saloons were
among the most elaborate in the city. Just
as soon, however, as the Patriarchs began to
arrive, General Underwood promulgated in
an official order, and also caused to be con-
spicuously printed in the daily papers, q rule
which was adopted at the last cantonment,
and which reads as follows: 'Any Patriarch
Militant who visits asaloon while in uniform,
or any part thereof, will be court martialled
without recourse and without appeal" II
was given out that this order would be rigidly
enforced, and as between degree competition
in the morning, the drills of the afternoon,
and the dress parade of the evening the Pa
triarchs had little or no opportunity to get
into civilian attire. They were compelled to
go dry, and the wet goods houses suffered
accordingly. Many of the saloon keepers in
the central part of the city, who have gone
to scores of dollars of expense in preparing
for the encampment. said that their business
had been poorer during the present week
than for any other week in the present year.
