The John D. Knox Matter.

TOPEKA, September 3O.-A warrant was
issued for the arrest of John d. Knox for
embezzlement. The complaint was brought
by L. A. Steobens in behalf of Everett O.
Fisk. of Boston, and charges that Knox, as
agent for Fisk, collected 500 in October,
1880, and has refused to pay the money over
to the proper party. Fisk and his mother
purchased number of mortgages, negoti-
ated by Knox, on Kansas real estate. The
coupons were left for Knox to collect as
agent for them.
The mortgage which brought about the
arrest was made to secure a loan of $4,000 on
Q business block at Ellsworth, Kansas. It
draws 10 per cent. interest payable semi.an-
nually. Fisk says that Knox collected the
second payment for last year on the Sd of
October, but never reported or forwarded
any part of the money to him. He also SAYS
that Knox collected $500 on q mortgage be-
longing to his mother, Mrs. Chloe c. Fisk,
also OF Boston, and has never reported on
the collection. They at first intended to
prosecute on this case, but Mrs. Fisk is i'll
and could not be hero to attend tho trial.
When Mr.. Knox make an assignment last
winter the Fisks were scheduled among his
creditors, and the amount collected and re-
tanned by him was placed among the liablli-
ties. The Fisks, however, say they are not
creditors, and that Knox was only actang a.
their agent

Control of Public Schools.

Control of Public Schools.
JOLIET, III, October 1.-The Rock River
conference of the Methodist Episcopal church,
comprising the northern and southern por-
tions of Illinois, including Chicago. adopted
Q report on public questions which contained
the following utterances:
Our public schools are the conservators and
safeguards of the nation. No system of
parochial or church schools meet the de-
mand of the general public school instruc-
ton. The principles upon which our public
in harmony with the principles and progress
ave interests of our government.
We declare entirely for American home
rule in all matters of public education and
sustaining our public school system; that
home rule in our state and national affairs
f0rbids the interference of any foreign pope,
priest, potentate or prince in our domestic
affairs, or to further any foreign scheme for
disintegration of our national unity, language
or educational interests; that home rule in
matters of public education shall mean no
interference by any realistlcal, sectarian or
sectional organization IN the administration
OF our educational affairs, and no appropria-
ton of public moneys to sustain schools
controlled for ecclesiastical or sectarian pur-
poses, that we seek to secure such entirely
by such constitutional and legislative provi-
sions as shall strengthen our entire public
school system and make it more than ever
worthy of the support of the earnest, loyal,
moral, patriotic and Christian citizen, who
wishes to see free ballot in the hands Of an
intelligent, free, pure, patriotic and prosper
GUS people.

The Law lnterferea-

TOPEKA, KAN, October 1.-THE statute of
1891 concerning the issuing of city. school
district and other bonds has already inter-
fered with the improvement by bond bust
ness in Kansas. The former law restricted
the issuance of bonds to 10 per cent. of the
valuation of property. but the last Legislature
reduced the limit to per cent. thereof.
Arkansas City is the first corporation to
run against the new statute. Before the law
was passed it had issued in bonds more than
6 per cent. of its property valuation, and
now it sends to the auditor of state for regis
tration $4,000 in waterworks bonds. They
cannot be registered. of course. The bonds
were carefully prepared by attorneys of rep
utation, but there 10 one phase of the law on
which they were not up"
The statute also directs that refundng
bonds of school districts, and those of all
other classes, shall b registered by the audi
tor Of state.

A Bull Dispatch,

CHICAGO, LII, October The Tribune
says: It has been learned that for The Last
three weeks agents for the French govern
ment have been quietly picking up an enor-
nous amount of grain and meats for the
French government. In meats they have
been buying in Virginia, southern Ohio,
Kentucky, st. Louis and points along the
the border the smoked hog products, ss the
salted products of Chicago are but little
known abroad.
But it Is for -four and wheat that they have
given their largest orders, amounting to
1000, 600 barrels of flour and q, 000, 600 bush
els of grain.
An inquiry as to why the French govern
ment should be secretly such a buyer,
brought out this explanation: The govern
ment is in delicate position in regard both
to grain and meat in France. Prices are high,
and the demand for a removal of tariffs is
pressing, yet the government does not like
to directly let down tho basis.
The threatening attitude of European af-
fairs gives 1t good excuse to provision
itself in advance-preparing for war in time
of peace-and it knows, rs matter of fact,
that those who buy later must pay higher
prices for American products.

Russian Woes.

LONDON, October 1.-The TeIegraph's st.
Petersburg correspondent says:
Dispatches from the interior are more
alarming. The August frosts destroyed the
barley crop, the staple food in Archangel.
In the extreme north the crops have been
spoiled by rains. Straw from matched roofs
is utilized for fodder. Cattle are dying by
wholesale on the roadsides.
Various ministers have issued conflicting
orders, resulting in utter chaos. The grants
of seed corn have been stopped. Immense
tracts of land are lying waste and scarcity
of corn is threatened in 1892.
The cattle plague has broken out in many
places.
Peasants in Sogowsky attacked some vet
Urinary surgeons who had been sent to de-
stroy infected cattle, and several were
wounded in the skirmish.
Clergymen are becoming begQars and
women are selling themselves to support
their children. No work can be procured by
the starving persons even on the VoIga. The
shares of the Steam Navigation company
have fallen heavily.
The new loan will only be as a drop in the
ocean. The large budget deficit IS certain to
make matters worse; 1000, 600 pools of rye
promised by the governor of neighboring
province, and on which the ministry has re-
lied, has failed. This discovery has caused
CONSERVATION.
The famine is expected to reach its acme
in November. The peasants threaten q revo-
luton unless the car gives them relief from
private sources. Partial risings are already
reported.

The Denver g. Rio Grande.
CHICAGO, October 3.-E. T. Jeffrey has as
sumed the duties of the combined position of
president and general manager of the Den
YER & Rio Grande railway, with offices at
Denver, where he now is.
It is generally understood his election is
due to the influence of President Marvel, of

road the Rio Grand has recently made close
traffic alliance.

and one of the stipulations of the agreement
is that no president or general manager shall

A County Eurned Over.

A County Burned over.
ELLENDALI, N. D., September 30.-Word
comes from Emmons county that the whole
east portion of the county has been swept by
a terrible fire, in which three men lost their
lives. Many families are rendered homeless
Whole herds of cattle persisted in the flames
One herder lost forty five head of stock out
of herd of fitty-three. Emmons county ID
seventy five miles west of this point aud re-
ports are meager. The fire originated from
q threshing machine.
The loss will reach fully $4,000. The
lives lost were q man, his wife and his son,
who were trying to save their farm property.
Several hundred men managed to stop the
progress of the flames just as they reached
tho boundary of Mcintosh county. where the
fires would have had a clean sweep. The
people in the district burned over in EN-
mons county are in pitiable plight, with
out feed or shelter.

An improbable Story.

An improbable Story.
NxNToN, GUATEMALA, October IA retired
American officer residing here says that three
Americans, supplied with abundance Of
money, had been here two months and had
told him that they were agents of combine
ton in New York to effect revolution in
Guatemala; that during that time many ex-
perienced military men had arrived IN that
country. in small squads, and been distrib-
uted to vanous points, where they were ready
to take command when the rising should
occur. The inference Is that the troubles
now occurring there have their origin and
support from this scheme.
