SANTIAGO. Chill, Nov. THE news
papers here have for several days been
publishing wild stories about con-
spiracy formed among the refugees at
the American legation to kill Gen.
Canto A notice was circulated yester-
day calling for a meeting of people in
the plaza to denounce the conspiracy.
Mr.. Egan, the United States minister.
informed the junta that threats had
been made to attack the United States
legation and to capture the refugees
and he warned the junta that it would
be held responsible for such action.
Later in the day several thousand
men assembled in the plaza and ap-
plauded several incendiary speeches in
which the supposed conspiracy and tho
United States legation were denounced
The junta upon receiving Mr. Egan's
letter sent troop of cavalry to guard
the United States legation and as the
meeting in the plaza closed the intend
ente published a notice saying that the
stories of conspiracy were devoid of
foundation. Serious trouble was doubt
less averted by this notice, although
the government did nothing to prevent
trouble until receiving Mr.. Egan's pro.

TOPEKA, November 10, 1891
10 the People of Kansas.
A meeting called by the State Board of Ag.
riculture, convened and was held In the city
OF Topeka on the I'D and oath days of April,
1891, for the purpose of devlsing plans to
have Kansas properly represented at the
Worlds Columbian Exposition at Chicago
in 1893. 1t was large and enthusiastic COZ
vention, composed of prominent farmers
hortculturists. stock-grOwers, manufacture
ers, railroad officials, scientists and educators
from every part of the state.
This convention decided that a creditable
exhibit of the products, industries and re-
sources of Kansas would require the expendi-
fure of One Hundred Thousand Dollars. A
committee. consisting of twenty-one men,
Ders was elected and organized as Bureau
of Promotion, and vested with general
authority to perform every service necessary
to accomplish the purpose for which this
movement was inaugurated. April 80 the
Bureau of Promotion issued an address to
''The People Of the State" which called upon
each county and each railroad company OPP
Grating lines within the state to contribute
much portion of the sum of One Hundred
Thousand Dollars as the assessed value OF
their property for the year 1880 bears to the
total assessed value of the property OF the
state for that year.
The sum allotted to each county, based on
county valuations less railroad property, Is

Perhaps our correspondent had in
mind another theory about opening for
eign markets by first opening our own.
Perhaps he did not base it on mere SEN
timent, but on what he believed to be
sound economic law. He may have rea-
soned with himself thus: The trouble
with American agriculture is that the
demand for its products does not come
up to the supply. The way out is to in
crease the demand. Therefore, put
more men and women to work in
Europe making goods for US, and they
will be able to buy more of our agricul-
tural products" His expression, "On
account of buying in Europe we could
ship an equivalence in farm produce. :"
can mean nothing else
The European workmen so set 70 work
would undoubtedly buy more literally
of farm products Thus far our CORE
spondent's theory is sound But what
farms would supply them?
Every European country raises nearly
all the food its own people consume.
Workmen there draw comparatively
small portion of what they eat from
other countries. and only a small part
of that fraction from the United States.
The vast majority of the working peo-
ple outside of Great Britain never see
an American product So when you set
your European labor at work. thus
enabling it to buy food more literally,
you simply increase consumption. for
the most part. of European, not Ameri-
can. food products
In the meantime. what about the con-
sumption of food in this country? The
increase in consumption abroad is based
on the assumption that Europe is supply
ing us with cheap manufactured prod
ucts.
What has become of the people who
used to make similar goods in this
country to supply the demand now con-
trolled by Europe? Will no. they be
thrown out of employment since the
things they made now come from
abroad? Is it not likely that many OF
them will be driven on 70 the land for
living and transformed from consumers
20 producers of agricultural products?
While the workman you Sc. 20 work
In Europe to make goods for America
will draw 80 per cent OF what he con-
sumes from the soil Of his own country.

I'm addition to this, the working
mans clothing is nearly as cheap as IN
England. and plain food is, on the
whole cheaper. Even 'ururies of a GER
tain kind are within the la50riHg mans
easy reach And who does Economist
suppose is the author OF this fiat contra
diction of his theoretical vaporings of
last week? None other than Matthew
Arnold, free trader to the back bone,
but man who did not allow a sense
less bigotry TO blind him to facts. nor
truth to become su bservient 10 the exig-
encies of party warfare.
yet another nut to crack. The debt
per head of the population in the United
States has decreased from 10 to . dol
lars in twenty years. and is now less
than that of any other nation. Taxa
ton in the United States in ten years
decreased by 10 per cent. while that of
England increased in the same period
by over "a per cent.
.And to show the folly of the asser-
ton that the Mckinley bill would kill
the foreign commerce of the United
States, her imports for the nine months
the bill has been in operation. have
been 81, 1876 100 dollars more than for
the corresponding nine months last
year, under the old law, and her inn
ports have exceeded by 55.59S, oS2 dol
lars. and her exports by 39,579,9l4 dol
lars those of the previous year.
''In contrast TO this. look at our board
of trade returns, and we find for the six
months ending June 3Oth, 1891, a total
decrease in our exports to the tune OF
e3H millions. Why should this be? We
defy Economist or any one else to
controvert the figures we have given.
Admitting then their accuracy. why on
earth, for the sake of senile worship
of lunatical craze. should it longer
continue?

eUssErs PENSION REPORT.

The Assistant Secretary q the IoteFioe
Files His Annual Rep09t.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 7.-Assistsnt Sec
rotary Bussey, Of the interior depart
ment has fled with Secretary Noble
his annual report for the last fiscal
year. The assistant secretary has ap-
pellate jurisdiction of all Eases arising
under the pension laws, and his report
is confined to . review, of tho work OF
the board of pension appeals under his
supervision. The report shOws that on
January 1. 1891, there were a02s APP
peals pending before the board. -
against 5000 on July 1, 1871 In tho
interim, however, there were 1885 new
appeals fled, and therefore, I. S94 were
disposed of. OF the cases disposed OF in
only 210.were the decisions of the PEN
sion Office reversed Mr. Bussey points
out several defects as he regards
them, in pension legislatio1sa and makes
a numbes of recommendations looking
to their correction. He asks that con-
gress be requested to enact a law that
shall expressly authorizeafhe depart
ment to treatall improper, Illegal and
excessive payments ofpensions,
whether caused by fraud or BY mistake,
as prepaymeSN to be charged against
thescurrent pension, with a view to re-
adjust or equalize current pension pay
ments within the discretion of the Sec
rotary. Heretofore. he explains, in the
absence of a clear legal provision on
the subject, the government having no
authority to plead a past overpayment
as az offset to current payments of
pensions. has been compelled to submit
to serious losses of money, which hav-
ing been once improperly paid either
to claimants or to pensioners, were ir.
recoverable under any esta blished rule
of departmental practice.
Mr.. Bussey calls attention to the first
clause of section 8, of the act of June
%, 1890. and says that his attention has
been drawn to number of cases
wherein, according to the law, the
claimant has been necessarily denied
pension because the soldier on whose
death the claim was based, although
serving ninety days or more in the
army or navy" as shown by the evil
dence, had not been 'honorably dis
charged" prior to death, but had died,
while for instance on individual fur
Tough and absent from the technical
line Of duty in the service. 1t seems,
he says, that both the spirit and the
object of the act of June %, 1890, would
be emphasized and subserved by an
amendment of this section that would
be applicable to such cases of depend
ence and distress
He also suggests that in cases of lin
sane, idiotic or otherwise helpless chill
dren' of deceased pensioners, the pen
sionable age limit to be abolished, so
as to admit such children at any date
on the pension roll The assistant
secretary also recommends that per-
sons who served in the confederate
army, and afterwards enlisted in the
navy of the United States, be given the
same pensionable rights as are accorded
those who served the confederate cause
and then enlisted in the army of the
United States.

SHERMAN ON, THE ELECTION.

He Believes That the Financial Question 10
More Important Than the Tariff:
CLEVELAND, O., Nov. IA corr }
spondeot of the Leader (rep.) at Mans
field sends the following interview
with Senator Sherman on the recent
election:
Il believe" said the senator, that
we have won q great victory. In
many respects it is but an indorse-
ment or re-echo, of the fight of 1875
upon the financial question. Presi-
dent Hayes and myself then made
an issue for the honest dol
lar, and this election in our COM
monwealth only shows that the people
of this state are true to the best ele-
ments of all life. Greenbacks and free
silver mean che same thing, and for the
second time in our political history the
state of Ohio has spoken and decided
that question as far as it can. / do not
mean to say that the tariff has not
played part in the game"
what effect will this have upon the
election next year?"
"A very favorable one. This cam
paign teaches many useful lessons
which will -ndeavor to point out In
the first place, so far as the republican
party is concerned, this result in Ohio
fixes the silver question as one of the
issues of the aext presidential contest,
and decides it so far as this state
is concerned. I am convinced that
a free coinage bill will be passed
by the congress which assemblies in
December. also believe that such a
bill as will be framed will be vetoed by
President Harrison. That will natural
IL make free silver the feature of the
next presidential fight In fact, it will
be the leading issue, upon which there
are vast differences of opinion in both
parties. 1t is exactly like the tariff

doubt very much whether
the democracy in national conven-
ton will proclaim for free coinage. If
they should. there would be no other
issue of significance in the next cam
paign. The financial battle that we
have fought in Ohio will then be trans
ferred to the nation, and a contest such
rs we have never seen will be the re-
suit. The tariff will be prominent but
not the vital point of the contest"

MINE DISASTER.

Another Fatal Explosion In Pennsylvania
Coal Iine-The Terrible Mistake of .
Miner.
NANTIcoKE, Pa. Nov. 9.-The usual
quiet Sunday of this mining village wa3
disturbed about 4:3o p. m. by the an
nouncement that a terrible explosion
of gas had occurred in No. shaft Of
the Susquehana Coal Co., by which a
number of men had been killed and
others terribly injured. But a short
time elapsed before the news spre ad
through the town and large crowd
gathered at the scene, including rela-
tives and friends of the miners employed
in the mine, and while they waited
for news from the shaft the scene was
narrowing in the extreme. 1t was soon
learned, however, that owing to the
fact that it was Sunday, there were but
fourteen men at work in the mine. OF
this number six were instantly killed
and several others so badly burned and
injured that they cannot survive.
