BELIEVE IN FORCE.
A Branch Of the Alliance That Is Pledged
to Use Bullets If Necessary.

to Use Bullets If Necessary.
KANSAS CRY, Mo-, Aug. 3t-The Star
says: 1t transpired during the recent
state meeting of the Farmers Alliance
at Warrensburg, No., that there was an
organization within the Alliance which
believed in force as a measure to obtain
the objects Of the Alliance. It was the
knowledSe of the existence of this 'sforce
element" that defeated the sub-treasury
resolution which was championed es-
pecially by the latter element. The
force party had forty-eight delegates in
the convention. One Of them, speaking
to reporter about the organization,
said: IF the minority will not
do what the majority wills,
it is high time for the
majority to hang the minority. If bal
lots won't do the business, bullets will,
and there are lot of us pledged to go
that far"
Ex-Presidept Hall, who asserts that
his life has been DECLARED forfeit in the
underground meetings of the people,
was and is keenly alive to this existence.
The secret order calls itself the s.anti-
monopolists," but very few, if any,
farmers belong to it. It's strength lies
mainly in the cities, and the farmers are
its cat-paws to rake its political chest
nuts from the fire.
Hall Issues an Appeal.
ST. LOUIS, NO., Sept. 2.-Ex-Presi-
dent Hall, of the Missouri Alliance, has
issued an appeal in the shape of a circu-
lar letter, addressed to all the sub-treas.
treasury leaders throughout this and
other states, asking them to meet and
select delegates to the national meeting
of the anti-sub-treasury brothers to be
held in this city Sept. Is. Ex-President
Hall is making a hard fight notwith-
standing his defeat at the recent conven-
ton. Halls stand is said to haye
strengthened him considerably. He
declares the sub-treasufy scheme is a
measure to ruin the Alliance and will
use every endeavor to avert the impend-
| ing disaster.

Collector Fassett Refused the Presidents
Son the Use of q Revenue Cutter.
New YORK, Sept. 2.-The Sun says:
Collector Fassett, backed by Secretary
Foster, has refused to let Russell Harri-
son have the United States revenue cut
ter Grant for the purpose of going down
the bay to meet Mrs. Russell Harrison
and Mrs Mckee when they arrive on
the Majestic. Mr.. Harrison is said 10
have been very angry at the refusal.
The reason given for the refusal is that
it is not customary to transfer women
from steamers to small craft. Such
transfers are difficult and dangerous
even for men. In only two instances
has the rule been broken-in the case Of
Nellie Grant Sartoris, when her father
was dying, and of Miss Folsom, when
she was ON her way home to be married
to President Cleveland.
Simply TO Meet the Steamer.
New YORK, Sept. 2.-Collector Fassett
has placed the revenpe cutter Grant at
the disposal of Mrs. President Harrison
to go down the bay and meet her daugh-
ter and daughter-in-law on the Majestic.
The ladies will not be transferred from
the Majectic to the cutter, but the latter
win merely accompany the steamer to
her dock.

steam entered the coach. Many of the
