and are 10 longer legitimate subjects for
public experiment The great problem in
this country is the agricultural one-the
selection of suitable soil, the hnding OF
proper climatic condition and instruction
in the method of planting. The cultivation
and harvesting of bets are all matters OF
vital impor Without careful study
of these subjects, and without proper
knowledge thereof, it will be hopeless
task to introduce successful beet sugar in
dustry into this country.
One of the great dangers to se avoided IS
the formation of hasty conclusions in re-
gard to the proper localities for the produc-
tion of the sugar beet. 1t has been found
in general that the coast valleys of Caiifor-
mia, and probably large area near the
coast in Oregon and Washington, certain
parts of the Dakotas and Nebraska, locali-
ties in Minnesota, Iowa. Wisconsin and
Michigan, and parts of Northern Illinois,
Indians, Ohio and New York, present fa.
vorable conditions for sugar beet culture
But in localities thus broadly intimated
there are certain restricted areas most suita-
bic to the sugar beet, and it is only these
restricted areas 10 which we mus. look for
success.
The fact in one locality, for instance, in
Nebraska good sugar beets can be produced
would be no warrant whatever for assum-
ing that all parts of the State were equally
suitable for this purpose, and this remark
may be applied to every one of the States
mentioned above. II the sugar beet is to
succeed in this country, this success must
come from sharp competition with the
same industry in older countries, where the
conditions are better understood and where
the localities have been selected by long and
often costly experience.
1t must also compete with the sugar cane
industry, beth of this country and of the
tropical countries, ard for this reason we
can only expect it to survive in those local
tiles where soil and climatic conditions,
proximity Of fuel, cheapness Of labor and
other favorable environments are found.

The weight was cut loose at SO O'Clock;

AMERICAN TARIFF.
An EngIishman's Opinion of It's Eject on
Commerce.

LONDON, November 14th.-Sir Lyon
Playfair, in a speech at Leeds last night,
dwelt at great length on the tariff policy Of
the United States He cited host of sta
tistics to show that the consumers always
paid the extra duty. The effects of the tar
i'll will be disastrous to American agricult-
ure.
He declared that Canada will be able to
supply Great Britain with all the food she
now gets from the United States. If Can
ada would reconstruct her tariff on revenue
principles, Europe and Asia would con-
tribute to her future commercial prosper
ity.
Referring to the meat inspection bill of
America, he declared that the empowering
of the President to boycott nations was an
act unworthy of great nation. The boy
colt has never hitherto been recognized by
international law. He considered the reci-
procity clause in the Mckinley bill safety
valve to prevent the high pressure from
doing up protection. Already there were
signs in Germany, Italy and elsewhere of
flames of distress in the protection camps.
Though England might be injured for
year or two by the United States tariff leg
islation, he hoped she would not dream Of
reprisals.
- The Times, is long editorial, says that
Sir Lyons speech is the most complete ex-
posure yet published on either side of the
Atlantic Of the absurdity of the Mckinley
tariff. The opponents of high protective
duties, it says, could hardly do better than
to circulate his dispassionate argument
among the American electorate before the
next contest for control of the Executive
power.

CAUSE OF TEMPERANCE.
Annual Convention of the National W.
G., T. u.

G. T. u.
ATLANTA tGa). November 14th.-The
National Convention OF the Women's
Christian Temperance Union began here
this afternoon, President Frances E. Will
lard presiding. A public meeting was held
to night, at which Miss Willard delivered
the annual address. 1t is lengthy, covering
107 pages. 1t dealt with the years work,
and declared the Women's Christian Tenn
perance Union to be now closing its best
years and one of its largest increase ia
membership. 1t asserted that the original
package decision resulted il the most help
ful temperance agitation of the year. 1t
declared against high license, and for pro-
hibition by law, by politics and by the
womens ballot.
Miss Willard said I'VE women want
one half of the world-an undivided half" !"
She advised the organization of Wom-
ems Council in every town, to be COM
posed of the Presidents of the various So
cieties engaged in women's work, this to be
sort of clearing. house Of their work. By
such uni6cation of the women's enterprise
it will be practicable to build q women 8
temple in every town to serve as rendez-
vous for their varied philanthropic work,
and by its rental to help carry that work
forward.
February 18th to 18th next has been set
for the first regular meeting Of the Women s
National Council at Cincinnati, and the
National ". G. I. U. is invited to send rep
resentative women who shall speak in Its
behalf. Let US name a day for general
movement all over the land for member
ship crusade. Let the local Unions divide
in twos and threes, starting out early in the
morning and continuing until evening,
canvassiug for new members and leaving
literature in each home: The thought that
hundreds of thousands of women the
world over are doing missionary work the
same day will give faith, courage and sue
cess."
Misc Willard asked that the Convention
vote on such day for next year, also on
the question OF a petition from women of
the civilized world to the Car against po-
litical prisoners being classed with those
guilty of crimes, aud against their being
treated with so much harshness.
The business Of the Convention begins
tomorrow.

THE BARTTELOT SCANDAL.
Mrs. Jameson and Bonny Throw More
Light on the Subject.

LONDON November 14th.-Mrs. Jameson
writes to the papers the following letter,
written by her husband to Sir William Nc
Kennon, after Assad FsrIan's story had
been told, entering vigorous denial of its
truth: In the letter Jameson says he was
deceived. He saw curious native dance,
which Tippo Tib told him was usually fol-
lowed by cannibal feast.
He was skeptical, whereupon another
Arab told him (Jameson) to give him bit
of cloth and he would see. Jameson
thought this trick to obtain the gift, but
gave the Arabs six handkerchiefs. A girl
was dragged out and murdered before he
knew what was going on. He made no
sketches at the time, but made them that
evening in his tent.
Jameson goes on to tell OF the disreput-
able character of Assad, and incloses re-
traction from that chief, in which he says
the story about buying the girl was misun.
derstood.
Mrs. Jameson adds that her husband was
about to take further steps to clear himself,
when stricken by fatal fever.
Bonny's official report is also printed.
In the course of it he severely criticizes the
management of Jameson and Barttelot.
They endeavored to hamper him lBonny)
in various ways. He says the march from
Yambuya to Unaria was delayed con-
stantly by bluster. swagger and bad man.
agement.
Speaking of the serious losses of arms
and stores, he says: During the twenty
four days of Barttelots absence, when he
(Bonny) was in charge, they never lost a
man or load, and travelled quicker. By
Barttelots bad management the loads were
afterward scattered all over the district and
many of them looted.
In Bonny's letter to Barttelot's father,
telling of the Major bringing chains from
Stanley Falls for the slaves, he says:
You may not like to hear this, but the
facts are in possession of the Congo State
authorities, and you had best be prepared
to meet any statement"
In concluding his letter to Stanley, Bon
ny says that, reviewing all events, he be-
lieves Bsrttelot was insane.

NEW YORK, November 14th.-In the Sun
tomorrow will appear letter addressed
to the editor from Jay Gould, in which the
writer says there are groups of roads
known as the Western and Southern sys-
TENS, traversing the most fertile and rap.
idly-developing territory of the United
States, and that the stock and bonds of
these properties is held by thousands of
investors in the East, and upon the pros
perity of these roads many small investors
depend for their dividends upon which to
live.
Something over ten months ago, writes
Gould, during a period of great depres.
sion, three great banking houses invited
the Presidents of these roads to meet. The
result of that meeting was the formation
of 8 so-called Presidents agreement, and
il may interest you TO know what the diff
ference in the net earnings of this group
of roads was between the rates which were
established and maintained for several
months after that agreement. and the rates
that prevailed under the loose and disOr-
ganiZed state of affairs ihst existed since
the agreement was broken.

"AUTHRoPOPLAsrIC."
DR.. variot Discovers New Process OF
EmbaIming the Dead.

PARIS, November 14.h.-Dr. Variot has
discovered a new and startling way of en-
balming the dead. He plates the corpse
with gold, silver or nickel. The body is
immersed in a chemical bath containing
metal salts. An electric current is then
applied. and the subject becomes encased
in hard and resisting crust of metal,
which adheres so closely to the form that
it shows the slightest wrinkle. The pro-
cess is called "authropoplastic." The
doctor now has in his laboratory metal
lied baby which is truly masterpiece of
art applied TO nature. The infant, incased
in the purest silver, seems sunk in the
deepest and calmest sleep. The little hands
are folded and the tiny leet are in a natural
position, presenting tout ensemble remind
ing one of Murillos cherubs.
