/ Fortune Contingently Favors Foster.
All through the vigorous Ohio campaign
that has just expired has run sharp and sub
tie triangular fight for the seat that IS soon
70 be vacant in the United states Senate.
I Whatever might have been che eKigencies
and vicisSi,lldes OF the gu5ernatoria! can
vass il Is quite safe 20 say that object was
never los; sight Of BY Sherman, Foster and
/ Foraker.
/ During q brief soi0urn q Secretary
/ Foster IN Columbus las thursday friends
! Of Senator Sherman are said have held
/ protracted conference with the secretary
with a view 70 adopting some definite
course Of action IN case the republicans
shall secure a majority in the state legis-
lature.
Though the sherman adhsTents claim a
majority Of rhe party nominees in tho
strongly republican and probable counties
they don't seen 10 be by any means sure
about IL since the vigorous fight that
Foraker has been making for a division Of
them. Consequently a reciprocal plan Of
emity and alliance between Sherman and
Foster IS said 70 have been devised for the
purpose Of freezing outn Foraker.
Should there eppenr sitter the election
any indication that Sherman has not a clear
majority the compact is to form combina-
ton against the ex-governor. This is one Of
the precautiOn try measures adopted by the
anti-Foraker contingent % secure his de-
feat at all hazards.
Information from the most reliable
sources sets forth that the situation was
carefully considered il all its aspects aud
an arrangement was eventually reached by
which Senator Sherman is TO rstire i'm
mediRtely after the election and throw his
whole strength. in favor OF Foster, should
such a course be then regarded as essen
tial to defeat Foraker. Presumptively
Secretary Foster is TO hold aloof as a can
didate and sustain Sherman-unless tn &
latter shall deem his retirement from the
contest advisable in view Of the object to be
obtained
Because Of this deal the Foraker men are
with the customary Foraker acrimony
charging Secretary Foster with duplicity Of
the basest character. Breaking out just at
the critical point Of the closing campaign
this fresh and breezy little quarrel has de-
veloped degree of asperity and vindictive-
ness that will probably be found to have
cost the republicans several legislators.
Thus it win relieve the conspirstors of the
labor of carrying out their very neat little
arrangement

Took Advantaxe or Bis location,

Theodore Thomas told me a story OF the Ng
fire day or two ago, and as he related the Incl.
dent to me he laughed the heartiest kind of a
laugh, says a writer in the Chicago Herdld. He
reached Chicago on the morning of oct. 8, 1871,
with mis- orchestra.
The first concert of that years season was to
be given in Crosoy's opera house in the even
ing Of that Gay, His musicians on their ar
rival, were ver1 hungry, and there was no
place for retresbments except a Conveniently
located lager oeer saloon in a basement
He was curious TO know why his men should
all emerge at once, then, after a consultation,
go down the stairs again. This was done two
or three times and he thought that he would
crafty his curiosity.
Mr.. Thomas found that after the players had
taken their first round the saloon proprietor
raised tAe price from cents to 10 cents, then
from 10 cents to is cents. then from Is cents to
20 cents, then from 20 cents to q cents glass
The more the lire spread the higher the price
per glass he charged At each raise there was
Indignation among the musicians, and they
came out on the sidewalk to vent their auEer.
But as there was nothing else TO do the men had
TO submit and pay the price, and the beer
vender, for once in his life, resped a rich
harvest.

Further Tronble Tor die Farm ers.


Apparently the farmers alliance has
either exercised but poor Judgment in the
choice of its business agents or else it has
struck vein Of very hard luck with them.
At all events they seem to average up very
badly in point Of ability or integrity or
bouh-accordiug to the point of view. Most
of these mtsfortunes have been of a cherac~
ter decidedly disastrous to the order.
just now it seems to be the turn OF the
Mississippi alliance TO suffer the disorganiz-
ing effects Of somewhat acrimonious con-
troversy over very broad and rather
startling charges of official malfeasance
that actually amount to embezzlement of
the funds of the organization.
When the stockholders OF the Mississippi
State Alliance Manufacturing Company re-
Gently met at Canton they were wrought up
nation by the allegations that Congressman
Beeman made ON the faith of information
he had obtained since he formerly acted as
chairman of the state alliance executive
committee Furnishing facts in detail ana
figures to support his assertions he boldly
charged that the state alliance exchange
had suffered from the populations Of its off,
cers and managers TO the amount OF not less
than $40, O00.
Some what in the nature of confirmation
Of this serious charge the Hon. b. +. Peass-
more stated that when he was chairman of
the exchange directory a year ago he of
fered to the state alliance a report which
would have fully disclosed what he declared
TO be ''the croolIedness and rottsnness in its
affairs" But he alleges that those who
would have been implicated in the said
"crookedness and rottenness' somehow got
wind of what the report would be and had
things so fixed that he was not permitted
to read it TO the members Consequently
it could not be considered nor acted upon.
Going little further than the others the
Hon. l.. T.. Robb not only denounced the
management Of the state exchange but de
clared that AL the alliance enterprises
from the exchanges down to the co-opera-
tive stores" had proved the most "stu-
pendous frauds and failures"
Before they have lost too heavily By their
apparently blind faith in imaginative and
designing volunteer political leaders it is to
be hoped that the intelligent farmers Of this
country who are certainly level-headed and
discerning enough upon the majority of
subjects may yet penetrate the sopbstries
Of the chimerical schemes presented 30 allur-
ingly to them and perceive that the crafty

Should the Hon. Patsy Egan eventually

probably be because the Harrison a1u1iuis-

Why Chile seems Wicked.

Late London advices state that dispatch
from Valparaiso to a London firm in the
Chilean trade replies to an inquiry by say
ing that the secret Of the junta's refusal to
give satisfaction TO the American govern
ment is that the members of the junta and
their associates in command are divided on
the question Of the presidency, and 90 ch
faction is afraid to make enemies by seem
ing TO yield 70 American demands. But
after the election OF president there will
probably be change for the better in the
situation.
To those who understand the devious
ways Of politics that explanation sounds
reasonable enough. Vet so cheerful a view
is not generally accepted by those hard
headed commercial Englishmsn having
Chilean interests, although even they be-
lieve that rivalry for the presidency is
| causing considerable bitterness among the
chiefs Of the late revolution.
But the failure TO capture Viouna is
deeply regretted. Many even OF the iunta
party consider that Vicuna was the legal
president-elect as his position was different
from that of Balmaceda since he was chosen
by the electoral body in accordance with
constitutional forms.
According to the opinion OF former Bal
macedist official had Vicuna been capt
ured he would probably have been MUIR
dered under the cover of pretended suicide. -"
Then the junta would have had u free field.
As it is, "the fact that Vienna is alive and
SO far as known, willing TO undertake his
presidential duties il permitted to do 80. is
a ranking thorn, aud will remain so for the
five years of what would have been his
term
With significant Spanish shrug the
same Official aided that "Vicuna ght be
invited back 10 Chile yet" In thai event
the most natural question would be whether
he could safely venture to accept the inyi
tation

AFORTUNE FOR a WORD.

Senator Evarts Received $4,000 as
a Fee for Saying dyes"
From the Nelg York Morning Journal.
Fifty-thousand-dolla fees are common.
They are often paid by big corporations for
legal advice, the correctness or faultiness Of
which means a gain or loss of millions. No
lawyer will give his advice in an affair in
volving enormous sums of mouey or the ex-
istence of a great corporation without re-
ceiving remuneration in proportion to the
amount or interest involved.
The personal liberty of wealthy man is
often worth $50, 900 to him, and a first-class
criminal lawyer who succeeds IN securing to
wealthy client his personal liberty or his
acquittal on a grave charge, expects re-
Enumeration in proportion 10 the wealth of
his client. He gets it, too.
There are several instances of $3.50, 900
having been paid to lawyers as a single fee.
The most startling case was that in which
ex-senator w. NJ Evarts, of Evarts, Choate
g. Beaman. received $250, 900 for an opinion
on ticklish legal point A great corpora
ton sought his advice. The lawyer stated
| the case and added that the opinion of
Senator Evarts would be final with them
and that they would adapt their future
course according to his advice. He then
| put a question to which the ex-senator
| answered simply:
Yes"
His bill was s25O,0OO.
Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars
for just one word Yes, and cheap at that
price. Had the corporation gone to a less
reliable lawyer, and received no" for an
answer, it would have cost them many
| millions.
There is another unique feature of this
| instance. II is the only case on record in
which ex-senator Evarts Is said to have
said simply yes" His sentences are usually
long and involved, but in this case one
word sufficed, and he earned his enormous
fee.
Another fee Of $3.50, 900 was that paid by
the sugar trust to John E. Parsons for
drawing up the agreement under which
they reorganized under the laws of the state
of New Jersey. This was also case that
needed lawyer who could not make a mis-
take. The smallest error would have been
fatal to the trust. 1t may have been an easy
matter for Mr.. Parsons to draw up that
agreement or it may not, but supposing it
was, the long years Of tedious study and
training, which were necessary before he
arrived at the state of proficiency which en-
abled him to draw up document that was
| tre-proof IN every way must be taken into
consideration IN computing the value of mis-
| services.
That the agreement was cheap at the
price was abundantly demonstrated by the
| futile efforts Of the Senate investigating
mitte9 to gain any more information
| about the trusts affairs than the officers of
the trust saw tit to give them. An agrees
ment OF that sort is worth paying we'll for.

INCREDIBLE STORIES
Told Concerning South America by
Walter Raleigh and Other Travellers.
Eroin the Chfcnno HernId

Told Concerning South America by
Walter Raleigh and Other Travellers.
From the Chicago Herald.
Ii was in 1850 that Raleigh published the
highly colored story of his Discovery of the
large, rich and beautiful empire of Guiana"
Most writers of the day were led by Indian
reports to affirm that the golden city
Manoa, upon the banks of Lake Parime,
was to be found near the Maroni river in
what is now known as French Guiana.
Wherever it was, Raleigh did not hesitate
to inform Queen Elizabeth that these re-
ports were true. Finally, the Spanard,
Martinez, who had a most brilliant imagi-
nation, declared that he had spent nearly
| year in Manoa, of which he gave an elabor-
| ate description.
| He said the city was of enormous size and
its population almost innumerable. Not
| less than 5000 workmen could be seen at
| their daily toll in the principal street. The
emperor's palace, built OF white marble,
ornamented with gold, occupied beautiful
island. Three artificial mountains envlroned
! the palace. One of them was of solid gold,
another Of silver and the third of salt,
which was protected in some mysterious
| manner from dissolution.
The palace was supported upon columns
of alaoaster and porpbyry. Around it were
galleries Of ebony and cedar, the woodwork
lavishly inlaid with gold and precious
stones. Two towers guarded the entrance,
each twenty-five feet in height, and sur
mounted by immense moons of silver. Two
living lions were attached to the foot of the
columns by chains of gold. In the palace
| was large square, adorned with silver
| fountains and vases, into which water ran
through four gold pipes The king was
called Ell Dorado on account of tue splendor
of his costume.
Among the mountains all around we're
inexhaustible mines, the source of this
| splendor. European credulity was strong
enough to give life for years to such nom
sensical yarns, says the New York Sun, and
probably no traveller in the Maroni valley
| from Crevaux to BRUNETTE has failed to CON
trast the actual poverty of the region with
the glittering descriptions of Raleigh and
| MartinaZ
