Opposed to the Third Party Move.

PRINCETON, KY. September 2S.-
The alliance of Trigg county, becoming
alarmed at the political status that their
order is assuming in this district, have
just held a meeting denouncing the peo-
Piles party movement and decrying any
attempt on the part of the order to en-
ter politics. The sub-treasury and
land loan scheme is opposed. as well as
any change in the present constitution
that would admit of a political party
being organized. This movement is.
headed by old-line democrats who are
trying to stop the inroads upon their
party made through the third party
movement. The alliance is quite strong
in that country and succeeded in elect
ing a delegate to the constitutional con-
vention last year. and is now in pO-
sition to dictate terms to the democratic
party. Grave fears are entertained by
the leaders of the alliance in this dis
trio that this movement will be the
rock upon which the alliance will split
The sub-treasuryites and third partyre
formers, however, are in the majority
now.

Jews for America.

LONDON, September 2S.-The Jewish
Colonization association, although
formed but a few days, has already
taken hold vigorously, and the project
of settling the poor Russian Jews in the
United States is to be pursued as rapid
ly as possible. The association has
come to the conclusion to send nearly
all the Jewish exiles 10 the United
States, and to secure their landing by
all lawful means. The Jews will be
settled as far as possible in agricultural
colonies, but it is not expected that
they will confine themselves TO the
country Their right to go into any
lawful business will be vindicated, II
necessary, through legal proceedings.
It is claimed that the United States has
room enough for all the Jews that will
emigrate from Russia, and tho oppor-
tunities for profitable business are not
equaled in any country. The associa-
ton will, therefore, for the present
wholly confne its attention to sending
Russian Jews to the United States and
supporting them there. A st. Peters
burg dispatch says the car seriously
thinks Of sending the Jews in large
numbers to SIBERIA They will not be
deported as convicts. but are to be pre-
sented with land and forbidden to re-
turn to Russia.

MADE TEN OUT OF ONE.
Exrmple of Expert Note Raising Received
at the Treasury Department from
Denver.

Denver.
WASHINGTON, September 29.-Prob-
ably the most expert piece of note-rais-
ing ever attempted has been received
at the treasury department from Den
YER, Col. 1t is in the form of 81 silver
certificate with the Martha Washing
ton head raised to a $40 national bank
note. When the great difference in the
designs on The two notes is taken into
consideration the work of the note
raiser is indeed remarkable and cannot
be detected without close scrutiny.
The vignette of Martha Washington on
the face of the certificate has been SO
reduced in shape that it is not visible
except on close inspection and over that
the picture of Benjamin Franklin has
been painted. All the heavy, dark
background of the vignette has been
erased and above the vignette has been
reproduced the counter, on which is
written the word ten On the right
hand side of the face of the note the
treasury Number has been transferred
into die bearing the figure ten.
The geometrical late work on the
right hand side of the face of the note
has been transformed into the figure Of
a woman resting on the back OF the
eagle soaring above the clouds. The
words lone silver dollar" on the geo.
metrical die in the center of the face
have been changed to "ten dollars" on
the back of the note.
The large figure 81" on either end
has been removed by the skillfnl use OF
chemicals and ink. The nOte-raiser
has on the left hand produced and al
most exact copy of the coat OF arms OF
one of the western states, and on the
right hand the eagle and flag enclosed
in an oval, which appears on this part
OF every national bank note.

found shelter IN boarding house.
Late tonight Thornton was seen by
Globe-Democrat reporter and inter-
viewed. He is OF short, stout build, of
200 pounds, open face, reddish hair
light reddish mustache, light gray eyes:
the left one being defective slightly,
and when speaking he has
habit of closing one eye. He
told your reporter the above story,
with variations. in his own way, OF the
terror they experienced in Gnd-
ing themselves in the huge waves off
COney Island. He said that on ltrda
the vessels they treated them well, but
to his appeal to 60 to New York they
shrugged their shoulders. They tried
to signal passing vessels after the first
five days, the girl being to i'll to be re-
moved before that time, but for some
reason or other they could not attract
attention, or else they would not stop.
Thornton can't tell the names of either
of the vessels, strange to say. and his
story in some other ways is very queer.
The girl tells the same tale
and sticks to it that it is all
true. She is OF slight build,
progressing, with black hair
banged in front, dark brown eyes, good
features. Two of her upper teeth are
filed. in her ears are Rhinestone ear
rings, on her hand two rings, one with
a ruby belonging a to friend OF hers in
Brooklyn, Mrs. Stokum. Of l04 Wander
bilt avenue. She was dressed in appar-
ell furnished by the wife of the Spanish
captain of the first vessel and Of very
foreign appearance and material
Thornton appears to be OF rational
mind and don't seem disturbed very
greatly in his mishap.

WHY BALMACEDA TOOK HIS LIFE.
The Argentine Minister Impressed Him
With the Danger of Mob Violence.

With the Danger of Mob Violence.
SANTIAGO, Chilli, Sept. 29.-The SEN
sational suicide of ex-President Balma-
ceda in the Argentine legation here,
last Saturday morning, has so worked
up the masses that an emeute broke
out among the troops of the junta yes
terday. They had been excited by a
too liberal indulgence in the pOtatiOns
that were given out during the last few
DAYS in the celebration OF the national
independence holidays. The trouble,
however, did not assume alarming pro-
portions and was put down speedily.
One of the causes which contributed
to the suicide of the hunted dictator
was the fear expressed by Senior Urri-
buria, The Argentine minister, that
the people would attack the legation If
they discovered that Balmaceda was
sheltered there. This nervousness OF
senior Urriburia seems to have been i'm
pressed upon the ex-presi6ent's mind
in many OF the talks they had while
Balmaceda was hidden in the legation.
1t apparently formed subject OF their
animated conversation last Friday
night, after the Argentine minister
had returned from the theater. With
this idea uppermost in his mind the I'M
fortunate dictator retired for the night.
He must Lave carefully considered the
subject before arriving at the grim de-
termination TO put an end to his mis-
cry by self-destruction.
Except for the outbreak among the
troops. Santiago is In much quieter
mood than any time since the war
ended.

AUSTRIA AND OUR PORK.

view the other day with the U. S.
Minister to Austria, Colonel Fred
Grant, in regard to the reported inten-
ton of the Austrian government to re-
move the prohibition placed upon the
importation of American pork, Colonel
Grant said;
II have great hopes that American
pork products will soon be admitted in
to Austria-Hungary, but no definite act
ion can be taken until parliament meets
later in the season. There has been
much official correspondence on the
subject, resulting in position which
leads the United States to expect an
early and satisfactory settlement of the
question"

The New Tower.

The work of replacing the high tower
oyer the draw of Rock Island bridge with
shorter and stronger one has been COM
menced by the Western Union Telegraph
company. Four large poles have been
erected, one at each corner of the draw,
opening on the stationary portion of the
bridge. The so telegraph and telephone
wires now running across the bridge will
be temporarily and perhaps permanently
cabled and for the time being will be sus-
pended from these poles. where they will
be high enough to permit the passage of
boats through the draw and at the same
time be out of line with the work of erect
ing the new tower. There are four elecs
trio light and power wires now crossing
the bridge which will also have to be dis
posed of some way, but without cabling.
Twenty-six OF the smaller wires belon 9
to the Western Union company and "a to
the telephone company. They will be
twined into four cables, two for the wires
Of each company.
The necessity for the new tower arose
from the fact that the Old one was too
weak to hold more wires, and it is de-
sired to swing % more wires across the
bridge to accommodate the power and
light currents of the street car syndicate.
The new tower will be IS feet shorter
than the old one and will be stronger
every way. 1t will be little higher than
the other two towers on the bridge and
thus the strain from the wires will be
more uniform. whereas its height has
made it to bear the heaviest burden here
tofore.
The work also contemplates the re.
moval of the fixtures from the other two
towers on the bridge and their enlarge
ment to accommodate the additional
number of wires that have been men,
toned.
