WASHINGTON. Aug. 21.-SenOr LaZzOano
the ChlLdn minister, wore a Coutented eN-
preston and was in an enthusiastic frame
of mind to-day. Il think the war is over.
Had We had ships said Senior LazzcauO,
tracing the positions of the government aud
insurgents on rough map he had drawn
so - 70 more EXPLICITLY explain himself,
we would have succeeded long ago.
As Senior Lazzcau0, III an otf-haud man
ner, described how the war was brought -
close, he was naturally eNuberanr wila
joy. The minister sent number OF trlr-
grams this morning, spreading far and VIE
this news Of the victory vi the Gillian gov
eminent.
During the afternoon Mr.. Foster. Secre-
tary Of the congressional ENJOYS. had three
or four dispatches dated TO-DAY from Minis
ter t.rrdlurlz n lQuIque, which he thinks
throw considerable doubt on the accuracy
of the report of the surrender. These dis
patches are addressed 10 Mr. Mont. princi-
pal Gillian envoy. amt say that the news IS
favorable that the constitutional army
forces are still advancing. and that the con-
tending party Is still confident OF the defeat
of Balmaceda's army. Mr.. Errazuril asks
that the report given out by agents of 10
DICTATOR be denied. The news impaired by
Balmacedas agent n BucnOs AyreS,
ne also says. Is correct, IS
IS also that given 70 the public

news referred to As being given oup at
Buenos Ayrcs is supposed to bc similar 10
that. The report received here by tue
agent of the government shows 4 dis
crepancy in the dates and of the nature u
the contents Of the dispatch received ty
the Gillian minister ;slG those received 10y
Mr. Foster. and this, coupled with
the fact that the United States
government has received no official
news of the reported surrender,
although il has its representa-
tives in the vicinity, Mr.. Foster thinks IS
omiuous. and tends to Yet make the issue
one Of uncertainty.

STOCK AND FARM,

Arkansas City Traveller: J. W. James,
Of Maple City, has been buying up
stock hogs in Rock Creek valley, pay.
ing from 81 to $3.50 per head. and
shipping them to Barre county, Mis-
souri,, where the market is unusually
good this season.
Olathe Patron: The high price of
corn and oats and the low price Of
hogs and beef cattle has made it I'M
profitable to feed hogs or cattle this
fall. Many farmers are holding their
corn and sending their stock to Kansas
City, where. on account of the large
supply and the light weights, prices
have ruled low. For this reason two
results may be expected. Corn will not
be so high as many expect. and those
who hold too long will lose money.
And after the rush of stock is over
cattle and hogs may be expected to go
up IN price and bring good returns to
those who are able to hold them. On
account Of the late fall pasture and
pleasant weather in this part of the
state, and the large amount of corn
fodder taken care of, hay will not rule
as high as expected.

Leavenworth Times: The Shaw
spring motor, one OF the inventions of
the age lately gotten up at Olsburg.
Kan, and patented at Washington, was
again tested on the Shawnee street car
line, yesterday afternoon, in the pres
ence of a good many people. 1t worked
splendidly for model, and bids fair to
be great revelutionizer when thor
oughly perfected. The object OF the
inventor is to have this motor take tha
place of horses on street car lines 1t
runs by means of coil springs and is
capable of being wound up to run one,
two, or three, and perhaps more miles,
The speed is regulated by means OF
levers, and in going down hill no power
is lost, as the spring winds automatic-
ally. A Times reporter, with five other
men, took ride on the motor over the
street car line. 1t drew all with perfect
ease. The springs used at present are
merely clock springs.
