Ambrose knew that this was only a
polite way of getting rid of him, but he
asked . policeman to show him Trinity
church, and he went up in the spire
alone. He cried little up there, for as
he looked out over the big, smoky city
he thought that in that great swarming
'human hive" as he had called it at
home in The Advance, he had no friend.
Here, even under the golden cross Of
the church, he was alone. It was a pitt

his home away In Ohio; but with big
sob in his throat he sharpened his pencil
and looked about him, for he had keen

IRREGULAR MILEAGE.
The Hearing on the Atoms
Application Brings Out
Some Facts.
Rates Were and Are Cut by
Sales Through the
Brokers.
The Alton Will Not Reduce
Rates Until Finley
Decides.
What Is Happening in Other
Quarters Of the Railroad
World.

CHICAGO, June 23-Chairman Finley
heard arguments this morning for and
against the application of the Chicago
e. Alton railroad for authority to make
passenger rate of $40 from Chicago
to Kansas City, and Sc from Chicago to
st. Louis. The Alton representative
claimed the regular rates of $3.50 and
$3.50 respectively were being cut daily
by the sale of tickets through brokers'
offices, and the evidence seemed to bear
him out in this statement. One general
passenger agent admitted that his road
was not carrying out the agreement as
10 mileage tickets, and testified that
that these tickets were practically good
10 bearer in majority of cases. The
chairman named two lines on
which the use of mileage tick
ets was not satisfactory to him,
and gave details respecting the
tests of brokers' offices and train con-
auctors submitted to the chairman by
members and obtained by him direct
showed conclusively that rates were
demoraliZed through irregular practices.
These tests left no doubt that Wabash
mileage is being extensively used be-
tween Chicago and st. Louis and is
practically good to bearer. After full
hearing of the question Chairman Fin
ley took the matter under advisement
and was urged by the Alton to make a
prompt decision. The Alton will wait
few days before putting into effect the
reduced rates. If Finley decides to
allow the reduction the Alton will have
justified its refusal to withdraw the $50
round trip excursion rate between Kan
baS City and Chicago.

MORE OF RECIPROCITY.
Blaine Wants 1t Understood He
Was Not the InitiatOr.

OTTAWA, Ont, June 23.-Premier
Abbott yesterday presented a message
to the senate from the governor general,
transmitting further correspondence
relating to the bond convention ana ne
gotiations for reciprocity. 1t shows
that the government of Sir John Mac
donald first asked to be included in the
bond convention in the shape of joint
commission. Mr.. Blaine, however, dis
tinctly refused to agree to anything but
a merely private conference, and ex-
pressly OH condition that it should not
officially be made public unless an ar
rangement was made. After many dis
patches from Ottawa to Sir Julian
Pauncefote, Mr.. Blaine privately sent
Sir Julian letter, i'll the course of
which he says it was surprise to him,
after the notes were exchanged. when
Sir John Macdonald and Sir Charles
Upper both stated before public as
semblies that an informal discussion of
a reciprocity treaty would take place at
Washington after the 4th of March by
the invitation of the secretary OF state.
Mr.. Blaine adds that he deems it i'm
pOrtant to have it settled that the con-
ference was not initiated" by him, but,
on the contrary, that the private ar
rangement was but a modification of
Sir Julian's proposal, and in no sense
an original suggestion from the govern
ment of the United States.

The Kansas Alliance Said to Be
Ridden.
LEAVENwoRTE, Kan, June 23.-In
every county where the Alliance has
nominated candidates for Office thus far
there has been a wrangle, with the in
variable result Of split. The defeated
factions Immediately withdraw from
the party and declare their Intention of
returning to the old parties. Many
reasons are assigned for this unhar-
monious sentiment, chief of which
seems to be lack of good leadership.
The Alliance is in a sorry plight, and
its days in Kansas as political party
are numbered.
Topeka, Kan, June 23.-Arrange-
ments are being perfected for the hold
Ing of Alliance picnics all over the state
Oh the Fourth of July. All the Ali
ance congressmen-elect and Senator
PETER will address the Alliance meet
ings. The picnics will be political
rather than patriotic. Ratification of
the work CT the Cincinnati convention
will be part of the Fourth of July
work. After Kansas has been thor
oughly canvassed by the Alliance ora
tors the South, and especially Georgia,
will be invaded.

WINTER WHEAT.
Outlook for Il Crop Where Har-
vest Is Begun.

CHICAGO. June 23.-The Farmers Review
will say tomorrow: Harvesting of winter
wheat has already begun in half of the
counties of Illinois and Indiana, and about
onethird of Ohio. The yield is generally
estimated in these states at fifteen to twenty
bushels to the acre. few counties report
as high as twenty-five bushels, and others as
low as ten bushels. In Kentucky harvesting
is in full blast. The yield is poor. cor
respondents generally estimating it from ten
to fifteen bushels to the acre, three counties
being put as low as seven to eight bushels.
In Kansas harvesting is we'll under way.
The estimates give the yield at about 20 bu
TO the acre. Harvesting has not yet com
menced in Michigan, Wisconsin. Iowa or
Nebraska. The yield in the latter will I'M
doubtedly be very large. i'll the other states
fairly good. Spring wheat in all the North
western states is reported as doing we'll
Corn is generally reported improving in con-
dition and promising from fair to average
crop. Oats prospects are reported poor i'll
Ohio, Illinois, Kentucky and only fair in In
diana. In the other states an average yield
is repOrted

THE ALLIANCE PLAN.
Cooperation Is to BE the Pana-
Cea for Farmers Ills

TOPEKA. Kan, June 23.-Van Buren,
Prather, state lecturer of the Kansas
Alliance, has addressed communica-
ton to the Congressional Alliance, stat
ing the plan for organization IN COM
pliance with the plans the national
council formulated at Washington last
February. The address is important in
that it gives the first official declaration
showing that the system of cooperation
is to hereafter form the substructure of
the Alliance movement. On this point
the address says: I'VE have been work
ing upon the competitive plan until we
are nearly a nation of wealth-producing
paupers. Others have been working
upon the cooperative plan and are
wealthy. Show the difference to our
people. We are the masters of the sit
uation, not only politically. but from
business standpoint, both IN buying and
selling, if we will only learn the great
lesson of cooperation. l would advise
not less than two days for lecturers
meeting and schooling upon the differ
ent topics for discussion. Present an
unbroKen front and march on to VIC
tory by following the principles of CO.
operation. The millions of wage slaves
will soon be emancipated, and happi-
ness and prosperity will be our reward.
The labOrer is worthy of his hire, and
by the Eternal he shall have it,"
