The Russian Embassy Pushing the Sultan.

Especial TO THE Observation-Disclosures Cable.l
LONDON, Oct. 23.-The Daily Telegraph
publishes to-day friday the following
news from it's correspondent at Vienna:
Intelligence comes from Corstantinople
that the Russian embassy is pushing the
Sultan hard for proofs of his assurance of
neutality; in other words, Russia affects to
believe that the Sultan has taken certain
engagements for the contingency of war
which NJ. de Nelidoff contends are mere
assurances and insufficient He SAYS that
Russia must either obtain substantial
proofs or she must take steps to secure her
own interests.
The Sultan pointed out that Kismel
Pesha, against whom M. de Nelidotf had
made frequent complaints, has been dis
missed, but the Russian ambassador re-
piled: Your majesty assured Sir William
White and NJ. de RzdowitZ that the change
OF ministers meant no change of foreign
policy: and added it was well known that
Kiamel Pasha had strong symp6tnies with
the triple alliance and England. There
fore Russia is entitled to demand tangible
evidence that there is no understanding be-
tween Turkey, England and Germany"
! 1t is hardly necessary to say that this is
merely a fresh device Of the Russian en-
bassy for putting on the screws and compel
! ling the Sultan to ask for recall Of the
British detached squadron in Turkish
waters. The Dardanelles are strewn with
lorpedoes anu several foreign vessels are
/ being sued Tor damages for having dragged
! their cables and injured the wires with
their anchors Eight hundred pounds is
claimed from one ship belonging to IL large
! firm in Hull.

Discussion of the Great Co.

and Other Matters.

SALINA, Kan, Oct 23.-Again this morn
ing gigantic cooperative scheme was be-
fore the Farmers alliance convention here.
The committee appointed to investigate
and report upon the scheme reported yes
terday afternoon unfavorably. The report,
however, was rot accepted by the conven-
ton, so it is probable it will so through all
right.
The secretary of the Alliance Exchange
company, which does s., 0O0, 900 worth of
business a year in this state says it Will be
an easy thing to throw all the business into
the new organization. In addition to this.
the alliance IS in position TO control abso-
luteIy the grain business OF the state. In
every county where the alliance will
pledge Its support TO the stock manager
will be appointed and goods supplied by
the National Union company for share of
the profits. The National Union company
is the outgrowth of the Ocala convention
scheme, sprung then and approved by
President Polk. Three months later a
meeting of capitalists was held in New
York city, company formed and g, 900, 900
capital stock subscribed. Probably the
work of appointing agents will begin i'm
mediately and the first stores be estab-
lishe2 the 1st of next January.
The National Union cooperative scheme
was adopted at this mornings session by
an overwhelming vote. Insurance features
were then taken up, ana in this, too, co.
operation was decided upon.
Every hing was fixed in caucus before
the convention proceeded 10 the election Of
officers. President McGrath stated he

There was no opposition. The sale Will
probably be confirmed and the road turned
over to the purchasers about November l.
1t was understood by them that the pur-
chasers were backed by the Manhattan
Trust company and some OF them expressed
the OPP Mon that j. M. Hill, the Great
Northern man, had a hand in the matter.
The fact that the traffic manager of the

present, added color to the theory and the
road will be under the control of the Great
Northern if it is not owned outright by
that company. Bonds TO the amount of

A Cablegram from Captain sch,ey.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-A cablegram has
been received at the navy department
from Captain Schley, commanding the
United States steamer Baltimore at Val
paraiso, Chilli, giving additional details OF
the fight between American and CHILEAN
sailors, in which one of the former was
killed. He gives the names of the men
hurt in the affair and corroborates the
facts concerning it already printed. He
asserts, briefly, the fight was caused
wholly by the Chilians, who made an at
tack upon the American sailors without
provocation. The boatswein's mate, who
was killed, was dragged from the street
car by members of the mob which num-
bered fully $50. The officials of the navy
department deny the dispatch contained
sensational statements and Secretary
Tracy says phrases quoted as coming from
him on the subject in a morning news
paper are wholly unfounded. The cable
gram may be made public after it has
been submitted to the President.
