THE REASON WHY

War Feeling in Europe.

LONDON, August 7.-The report that France
and Russia had virtually agreed that in the
event of q victory over Germany they would
have Schleswig conveyed to Denmark, has
caused considerable comment IN Berlin,
where the war feeling has been mounting
high for sone time. The rumor. however,
called to public attention other rumors OF a
similar nature regarding the triple alliance.
1t was stated recently at Vienna that one
of the unwritten agreements OF the triple
alliance was. in the event of continental war
to disable Russia forever by divesting the
empire of Poland, Finland. and the Baltic
provinces, and compelling the car to aban-
don st. Petersburg for Moscow, France at
the same time to give up Nice and Corsica to
Italy. These arrangements are understood
to be merely provisional, but the fact that
they are talked of shows the deliberate way
in which European nations are preparing
for the great struggle.
The Russian rifle factories are running
night and day on the new repeating rifles
with which it il proposed to arm the infantry
and reserve. While the greatest diligence is
shown IN the making, it is believed that two
years will elapse before the military force
will be provided with the gun. This would
not prevent Russia going to war in the mean
time. as 100000 men will have the rife with
in q year.

Will Declare Duties Suspended.

Will Declare Duties Suspended.
BERLIN, September Tho suspension Of
import duties on grain is becoming recog-
nized necessity. The ministers will not sub
NIT the question to the reichstag, but will
declare duties suspended Immediately upon
gathering and digesting these statistics. Tho
North German Gazette recently said the rea-
son why the government refused to suspend
the duties was because when once suspended
the reichstag would never allow them to be
restored or raised again. This statement
raised a storm of protests. A motion that
temporary suspension of duties meant perms-
nent abolitlon was denounced as absurd. be-
cause the reichstag. which has still three
years to live, has q clear protectlonist major.
ity and would impose duties at the beck OF
the government In the meantime all posi-
bic measures will be taken to tighten the
hardships resulting through the dearness OF
rye. The Reichs bank has been authorized
to make advances up to two thirds of the
value of grain situated in the department..
Mixing of rye with wheat has been largely
resorted to and only this mixture is now used
in making bread for the army.

HALL HOISTED.
Missouri Has a Third or Alli-
ance Party.


WAHa1xsBURe, No., August 2s.-The state
farmers alliance convention, in session 1t
Pertle Springs, has finished its work.
Missouri will have a third party. That
was settled when the farmers alliance state
convention deposed M. S. Hall from the
presidency and elected Leverett Leonard a.
his successor.
President Hall represented the conservative
element of the alliance, which opposed the
third party and the Ocala platform, the cub
treasury scheme included.
Leonard represents that radical element of
the alliance which holds that little can DO
accomplished for the agriculturist and indus
trialist within the lines of the old parties,
and which favors the Ocala platform and
sub-treasury scheme.
The fight between the opposing factions
has been brewing ever since the last conven-
ton, and each has been preparing for the
final contest, which all knew would occur.
President Hall was hopeful of victory, and
went into the convention confident of carry
ing the day.
Leonard was elected by a vote of 81 to 50.
The demands adopted are:
We demand the abolition of national banks;
we demand that the government shall estab-
lish sub-treasuries or repositories in the sew
eral states, which shall loan money direct to
the people at low rate of interest, not to
exceed 2 per cent. per annum, ON non-per-
isfabl products, and also on real estate,
with proper limitations upon the quality of
land and amount of money; we demand that
the amount Of the circulating medium be
speedily increased, not less than $50 per
capita.

From the Presidents Speech at Rutland.
RUTLAND, W., September 1.-The presi-
dents speech here had these passages:
He said it was pleasant to stand on the
steps of Memorial hall, erected as place of
deposit for the trophies of the great civil
war and a. q monument of honor to Yer
mont soldiers. No one could tell how much
hung upon that contest. No orator had ever
been inspired to describe adequately the
gravity of that issue. 1t was Q contest to
preserve the unity of the republic. How
much memberment would have meant,
how greatly it would have increased the cost
OF the government. how sadly it would have
disturbed the plan of border communities,
how it would have degraded this great people
in the eyes of the world, how it would have
rejoiced the eneIpies Of q popular govern
ment no tongue had ever described. 1t was
not to be 50. God had desired that this ex-
pertinent of free government should have a
more perfect trial.
1--WE were very patient" continued the
president. during the early contest. 80
patient that our southern brethren misjudged
the temper of the people when the eouth con-
clu6ed they might support the idea of dis
union, which had so long rung in congress
and had SO long filled their Boosting press.
When the first shot was fred on Sumpter a
great wave of patriotism swept over the
country, higher than any tidal wave ever
lifted itself upon a devastated coast. APP
plause. And it was not to be stayed in its
progress until the last vestige of the rebel
lion had been swept from the face of our be-
loved land"

After Buried Treasure.

HALIFAX, N. S., September LA party of
fifteen men from Colchester county have
leased the late Anthony Groves property on

to dig for the great load of gold which tradi-
ton says was buried there by Captain Kidd.
Il il said they have considerable capital be-
hind them and are determined to pursue the
work until they discover the treasure or have
every shovelful of Garth on the island over
hauled.
THIS is the same spot where several CON-
panles spent many thousands of dollars some
years ago in prosecuting fruitless search.
There arc now seven pits dug. Some of
them are - deep - 40 feet. and despite the
failure of former diggers. the party who now
have tho work in hand are sanguine OF sue.

leo on Wheat Heads.

ST.. PAUL, MINI, August 29.-Reports
from various points in North Dakota state
that killing frosts did much damage to uncut
and freshly cut wheat. At Church's Ferry
the thermometer registered % degrees. Ice
formed ON many heads of wheat in many
fields. Many farmers saved their fields by
lighting smudge fires. At Rollo frost was also
very severe. At st. Vincent the thermometer
registered 30 degrees. and frost was heavy. In
the vicinity of that place, however, 70 per
cent. of the crops are already harvested. At
Pembina the thermometer was degrees
below freezing and wheat was injured con-
siderably. At Bismarck the frost was too
light to do much damage.
