The Texas Alliance Order the Amendment
of an Impounding Ordinance.
GILLIAN, TEX, Oct. 13.-One of the latest
moves of the Farmers Alliance is the boy
cotting of the town of Ladonia. The boy
colt was declared because the Town Council
enacted a law prohibiting the running at
large of stock in the corporate limits. The
boycott was brought about by impounding
the three head of horses belonging to G. w.
Magee, member of the Alliance. Prang
Gap Alliance is the first to open war, and
their resolutions are as follows:
Resolved-First-That we forever sever
our commercial relations with the town of
Ladonia, and use our influence in behalf of
other towns, unless said town of Ladonia
shall amend its stock law and return Ma
gees stock or the equivalent.
Second-That we petition all Alliance
and good people in Delta, Vannin and Hunt
counties to take some action to secure the
return of said stock and an amendment to
the Ladonia stock law

A NEW TRAINMEN's FEDERATION.
The Consolidation of the Two Conductors
Organizations Makes It Necessary.


GALEsBURG, ILL, Oct. 13.-Grand Chief
Clark, of the new Consolidated Order OF
Railway Conductors, is here in consultation
with the trainmen now in session in this
city. The matter under consideration is
the proposed federation of the various asso-
Citations of railway employees. Last week
Mr.. Clark effected a consolidation of the
Order If Railway Conductors and Brother
hood of Railway Conductors, the name and
officers of the former to be retained.
The ostensible object of his call on the
Trainmen Brotherhood officials here was to
present plan providing for closer rela-
tions; but the movement means much more
than this. The Brotherhood of Railway
Conductors was member of the Supreme
Council. The Order of Railway Conductors
was not The absorption of the former by
the latter deprives the council of a mem
Der, so that now the council comprises only
the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and the Switchmen. 1t is deemed signifi-
cant that Mr.. Clark came here from Terre
Haute, where he had a conference with
Grand Master Sargent, of the Firemen's
Brotherhood. 1t is believed that Mr..
Clark and he have an understanding in re-
gard to new federation.

GENERAL HALDEMAF's TROUBLES.
His Wife Sues for Divorce and the CUSTODY
of the Children.

of the Children.
LEAvENwoRTH, Oct. 13.-[Special IA
petition for divorce was filed in the District
Court at this place to-day which
created stir in society circles
on its becoming known this evening.
The petition was filed by Mrs.
Anna B. Haldeman, asking for an absolute
divorce from General John Haldeman. In
the petition Mrs. Haldeman alleges failure
to support, gross neglect, and some other
things of minor importance. Mrs. Halde-
man asks for the custody of their chill
dren and the right to control their
property, all of which she claims belongs
to her by inheritance. The parties to the
suit are of the highest standing, and Gen.
eral Haldeman is well-known throughout
the country. He was Mayor of Leaven-
worth at one time. He was Probate Judge
and State Senator, and finally Minister to
Siam under the Republican administration
preceding Cleveland's.
At present the General is either in Wash
ington or the West Indies. Mrs Haldeman
was formally Miss Anna B. Doris, of st.
Louis, the descendant of an aristOcratic and
wealthy family. Her married life for the
last six or eight years has not been happy.
She and the General have been living apart
most of the time, but they have never had
an open rupture. The trouble leading to the
beginning of divorce proceedings is said to
have been brought on by General Halde-
man refusing to sign deeds for the sale of
some st. Louis property Mrs Haldeman in
herited and wished to dispose Of Friends
of the General here say that he will fight
the divorce charge, and lively time is
looked for Mrs. Haldeman left for two
months trip to France tonight. 81

Some people, for the sake of feS cents
difference in price, buy Whiskies that they
know nothing about. Isn't it worth the
difference to get Whisky sold under sworn
guarantee of purity? Klein's celebrated
"Silver Age" and ''Duquesne" are both ac-
companied with the distiller's affidavit
certifying that they are unadulterated.

brands, and leading hospitals use them ex-
