Socialist Congress at Calais.

CALAIS, Oct. IA large Socialist con-
gress of Collectiveists is in session here to
consider the question cooperative organi-
zation.
The congress agreed to appoint commit
tee to inquire into the disputes between the
Socialists parliamentary leaders and the
Berlin opposition. Resolutions were
adopted declaring the Socialist deputies in
the reichstag should continue to urge the
demands of the Social Democrats against
ruling middle classes; their legislative ac-
tivity should be directed toward the i'm
provement of the position of the working
classes both politically aud economically.
The party should also maintain the exist
ing right of coalition until full liberty of
meeting and association has been reached.
Leibnecht attributed the onslaught
against parliamentism in the press to
misunderstanding. The nation found
fault with parliament not because the peo-
pies rights were not better studied by that
body, but because of the stupidity of it's
indifference to the subject.
Several foreign delegates made their first
appearance to-day and were received with
enthusiasm. An especially warm welcome
was given to Frau Marx, daughter of Karl
Marx, and Nine. Guesde and Ferroul, who
represent the French Socialist congress.

A NEAT CASE OF SAFEGUARDING.
A Young Man by Making His Index Finger


CHICAGO, Oct IA safe opening test
which in sensational accompaniment dis
counts the wonderful feats of Johnston,
the mind-reader, took place in Hotel
Wayne early this morning The operator
was Henry E. Adams, a young man from
Minneapolis, who came to Chicago some
weeks ago and took rooms at the Wayne,
where he became acquaited with a young
man who, although Adams did not know
this, was cousin of the proprietor. Within
the past few days Adams proposed to him
to rob the hotel safe. He was to get up
at o'clock in the morning and do this.
The hotel proprietor was advised by his
cousin, who at the same time pretended to
be an accomplice to Adams plot. Two de-
tectives were hidden in the office last night
and this morning at the appointed time
Adams came in. The wondering officers
watched him without tools or explosives
prepare to open the massive safe. Although
it was evident he did not know the combi-
nation, he pared the nail of his index finger
on the right hand until the blood vessels
were exposed. Then by placing the sens1-
tive wound on the knob Of the combination
lock he could distinguish the movement of
the tumblers as they fell. For an hour he
worked, while the detectives scarcely dared
breathe. AT last there was sharp click
and Adams swung back the door. With a
sigh of relief he reached into the safe and
laid his hands on package of bills, but
much to his discontinue the officers stepped
forward and placed him under arrest.

Destructive Prairie Fires in North Dakota.

FARGO, N. D., Oct. AT. S. Sander
hill, one of the railroad commissioners for
North Dakota, resides at Antelope, west OF
the Missouri river. He reports deplor-
able condition of affairs among ranchmen
in his district resulting from the recent al
most unprecedented prairie fires between
the Hart and Cannonball rivers and in the
valleys of both the destruction has been
almost complete, while about Kill Deer
mountain and east of there nothing is left
for the stock to live upon. At Riverside
ranch at the mouth of Little Hart river
500 tons of hay and 300 head of cattle were
burned. At Parkin's ranch on the Cannon
ball river the loss was the heaviest. Wlcke's
ranch lost everything except the buildings.
In all the settlements and valleys OF the
Hart, Cannonball and Knife rivers the loss
has been heavy, the fire travelling with
such fury as to go completely through the
villages. In almost every instance in the
valleys small farmers have lost their crops
and feed for the winter The wind blew
hurricane at Riverside ranch. There were
fire breaks 500 feet in width, and it made
the flames leap over them. Ranchmen are
inclined to lay these fires to Indians from
Fort Yates reservation who come up into
the valleys and drive the game south and
burn the pralries behind them to prevent
the game from going back. The ranchmen
propose to take the matter before the au-
thorities to prevent REPETITION.

TWO OFFICIAL VIEWS
On the Mormon Manifesto Re-
nouncing Polygamy
BY WOODRUFF AND THOMAS.
Both are Mild and Conservative Statements
The New West Educational Commission
and the Utah Question.

New YORK, Oct. 1.-THE Independent
will publish tomorrow articles received by
telegraph from President Woodruff, of the
Mormon church, and Governor Thomas of
Utah, concerning the action of the Nor
mon conference October 6, forbidding poly
gamy. President Woodruff says: 1.-THE
action of Congress is conclusive. The
church has no disposition to violate the
laws or defy the government. The revela-
ton of God requires US to obey the consti-
tutional laws Of the land Judge Zane
has recognized the action of the church as
sincere and final, and has rescinded the
rule excluding Mormon. aliens from
naturalization.
Governor Thomas says: tsThe manifesto
of the president of the church has now
been confirmed by the conference. 1t
comes with the force of a new
revelation and whatever doubt may
have existed as to the purpose
and effect of the manifesto as first sent out,
they now seem removed. The gentiles re-
loice that the contest begun so many years
ago against polygamy has finally trium-
phed, for they believe that never again will
poIygamy flourish on American soil.
''This is the most important event that
has occurred in the Mormon church in
years. And it is believed it will result in
greatly advancing the material interests
and prosperity of the territory"

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch
BosToN, Oct. 1.-THE Traveller tells this
story: Senator Stanford leases from Pro
fessor A Graham Bell the house in which
he resides at Washington, but he owns the
stable connected Herewith. He leased the
house and wanted stable AS the owner
had no use for one he decided to build it.
The Senator thereupon bought the land
and built one himself The Senator does
his banking business with the Corcorans
and generally has on deposit there sums
that vary anywhere from SO, 900 to s4O0. 600.
The parties who owned the land he desired
for his stable took the deeds to John Nc
earthly, who wired the Senator, then in
California, to send a check in payment.
When the check arrived it bore on its face
these words: Payable in case the deeds
are found to be all right When the check
was presented to the Corcorans it was re-
fused upon the ground that IF we accept
that check we guarantee the deeds to be all
right, and we are not doing business that
way" and the check went back and an
other was substituted before the transfer
was made.

ConstruIng the "Fayored Nation y poctrin,

WASHINGTON, Oct. IA dispatch from
London asserts that Spain cannot negotiate
a reciprocity treaty with the United States
for the cotton trade without violating the
favored nation clause'' in existing treaties
with other nations. 1t is said at
the department of state that this point
was finally decided in 1884, when
Minister Foster negotiated reciprocity
treaty and is now revived, not by Spain,
but by the commercial interests of Great
Britain for obvious purposes. The United
States also has favored nation clause''
in most of her commercial treaties, but
this will not embarrass the government
in the negotiation of reciprocity
treaties or arrangements with other
nations, because the department of state
uniformly held favored the nations
clanse applies only where the privileges
are granted fully and without considera-
ton; but wherever special consideration is
made the condition of the favor granted or
received, the favored nation clause does
not apply.
