WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-Miss Mary
Butterworth, daughter of Representa-
tive Butterworth, of Ohio, was married
Wednesday to Mr.. Hugh Howe, an
agent of the state department, at the
Friends Meeting house in this city.
The ceremony had been set originally
for Thursday and preparations had been
made to make it a social event. Mr..
Howe, however, was taken seriously Ill
last Friday. and rather than have a
postponement of the marriage, Miss
Butterworth decided to have it take
place quietly. All formalities were dis
pensed with and the ceremony took
place in the sick room in the presence of
a few immediate relatives of the con-
tracing parties.

States.

Reference to the American
Tariff

MILWAUKEE. Wis, Oct. 30.-Secretary
Rusk, who stopped in the city short
time Wednesday, in answer to a ques-
ton said:
I'VE shall have all the restrictions res
moved by the English government from
our cattle before long. Our veterinar-
ians, who are over on the other side, in
form me they have not found the slight
est trace of pleuro pneumonia, since
they arrived. in any cargo of cattle ex-
ported from this country. They say
further that the English veterinarians
tell them the last trace of the disease
found was last March. l shall be able
to issue notice soon after go back,
That the Disease Is Stamped Out
in this country. The only traces of it
remaining are in herd down In Long
Island and we have that closely quaran-
tined. l feel certain the restrictions
placed on our cattle will be removed
very soon now. That will mean differ
ence of from So to $12 q head to our
people.
How about the American hog?"
"Oh. he's all right. Just before left
Washington, received a telegram from
France saying that things there looked
favorable for a revival of the laws res
pecting our pork and beef"
The Beet Sugar Question.
Have the experiments with the sugar
beet resulted to your satisfaction"
Entirely. There is no manner of
doubt now that the beet sugar industry
is beyond the experimental stage. The
Nebraska factory when left was pro-
ducing l2f per cent. of sugar or about
twenty tons day. Our experiments
made for the purpose of finding out the
best section for this industry have
proven that the beet needs rather cold
climate. They cannot be grown sue
cessfully in climate that produces the
sugar cane, but In colder climates they
do well. Wisconsin is one of the best
states for successful prosecution OF
that industry, even better than Ne
braska, 1 think. 1t will be a great In
dustry In time"

The Rumor Was Correct.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 30.-Tele-
grams were received at the stock yards
during the day from agents on the line
of the Mexican border stating that the
rumors circulated Tuesday regarding
the import duty of $500 car for cattle
imposed by the Mexican government
were well founded and that in addition
to this duty the grain which it has been
the custom TO ship in with the cattle
was also taxed 80 cents bushel. This
action has almost paralyzed the cattle
trade of certain portions of Kansas and
will do great injury TO Kansas City, as
this city has been doing large business
with Mexico.

GlADSTONE'S TARIFF TALK.
Mckinley Bill Would Only Divert En-
siish Goods to Other Markets.

DUNDEE, Oct. 30.-Mr. Gladstone
speaking at this place declared
the effect of tariff legislation of the
United States would be TO raise prices
generally in the United States, thus di-
minishing the national power of export
alton. The new American tariff law
meant also that while Great Britain was
drived from one market out of twenty,
it derived the benefit of the other nine
teen, which II would control by reason
of the diminished power of America to
compete therein. This inability would
be due 70 the increased prices and in
creased restraints under which the
Americans would have to work.
