The Insurgent Cruiser Itata Sur
renders to Admiral McCann,
HER CARGO OF RIFLES INCLUDED.

The Report Confirmed by a Dispatch
from the Admiral to the Navy De-
partment-WiIl Be Sent Back Un-
der Convoy-Her Escape Disap-
proved by the Insurgents.
IQUIQUE, Chile, June 5.--The steam
ship Itata arrived here yesterday from
Tocopilla, and has been delivered over
TO the American war ships now here.
The Itata has also handed over all
the arms she took on board off San
Diego. These consist Of 5000 rifles.
The commander of the Itata states
that the arms were not embarked atSan
Diego, but many miles out to sea. The
insurgent government at Iquique claims
chat this modifies the situation, and will
probably result in speedy solution of
the difficulties.
The News Confirmed.
WASHINGTON, June 8. - Secretary
Tracy last night received the following
dispatch from Admiral McCann: The
Itata arrived at Iquique, Chile, from
Tocopilla Wednesday night, and was
placed at the disposition Of Admiral
McCann yesterday morning. She had
On board 5000 rifles and ammunition
taken from the Robert and Minnie off
the port Of San Diego, Cal. She has no
other munitions Of war than those be-
longing to the ship, and transferred to
the Esmeralda, with whom she commu-
iiicated off Acapulco, Mexico. She then
vent direct to Tocopilla. The Charles
ton has arrived at Iquique.
The Insurgents Disapproved.
AS soon as the Itata takes on coal and
prepares for the return trip, Admiral Nc
Cam will send her back to San Diego,
probably under convoy of one Of his
cruisers. She will be delivered to the
United States court officers at San Diego,
and the proceedings against her for vio-
lating the neutrality laws will be re-
Humed where they were interrupted by
the unlawful departure of the steamer,
and the responsible parties will likely be
called upon to answer the additional
charge, contempt of court for running
away while under injunction.
The Chilean insurgents, it seems, upon
hearing of the escape of the Itata while
1inder injunction, disapproved this ac-
tion and at once determined to surrender
The vessel and the proposition was made
by the insurgents through Admiral Nc
Cam to surrender the vessel as soon as
ahe reached South American port.

LISBON, N. D., Nov. 6-The News OF
yesterday says:
Shortly after half past three O'Clock,
last Tuesday morning, fire we'll under
Roadway was discovered in the unoccu-
pied two.story frame building on the
south side of the Headquarters hotel.
The entire fire department. responded
promptly to the alarm and although the
hotel was some five feet from the burn
ing building the boys protected it by
means of the chemical engines and a
goodly supply of water from neighbor-
ing wells, until the fury of the flames
was exhausted. The one story building
further south also took fire but the hook
and ladder company quickly tore it
down. During the hottest part of the
fire linen closet in the center of the
hotel and we'll away from the burning
building, being separated by row OF
bedrooms, was found to be full of
flames. These were promptly ex-
tinguished, but shortly afterwards fire
started in the barn situated in the rear,
and where it was impossible for it to
catch from flying sparks. This also was
fortunately put out in good time or the
destruction of property must have been
very great. All the fires were evidently
of incendiary origin as evidences were
afterwards found of plentiful use of
kerosene

Tho ParochiaI Pubic school Question in
Minnesota.
MINNEAPOLIS, Nov, 5.-The great
quarrel between the Catholics and Prot.
estants regarding the public schools is
DO ut to come to a head. The Mime
sofa Division Of the Patriotic Sons of
America met in secret recently, three
hundred delegates being present from
all parts of the state, and resolved to
call in the aid of the courts to stop the
turning over of parochial schools to
public school boards.
Those of Faribault and Saltwater and
part Of those of st. Psul had already
become part Of the public school sys-
tenn. Eugene Rocks, the attorney Of
the order, was instructed to begin legal
proceedings with the service of an in
junction upon the financial officials of
the state, county and city, restraining
the payment of any money to the school
boards of Saltwater or Faribault.
A subscription of 81, 900 was raised to
carry on the work. This action was
taken on the report of Rev. G. L. Nor
rill that the Catholic religion was still
part of the curriculum in the old pa
rochials.

ST.. Paul, Nov. 5.-W. Fl. Donaldson,
postmaster Of Watertown, s. D., says in
an interview here: The result IN South
Dakota yesterday removes all doubt as
to that states being safely repIb lican
next year. Jolley's majority surprised
even the most enthusiastic republicans.
The friends Of both Smith and JolleyI
put forth every effort to poll full vote
for the candidates, and the result shows
the strength Of the alliance and demo-
Gratis combined is not equal to that Of
the republicans alone. Itshows farther
that the alliance as political factor is
on the decline. South Dakota is safely
republican and Blaine will undoubtedly
be her choice for president. Oar 900

Additions to North DAKOTA.

ST. PAUL, Nov. Give have now
secured 25O!O0O acres of land in North
Dakota for barley farms, and next
spring we will send thousands Of Ger.
man emigrants to that state from Ohio,
West Virginia and Indiana" said Col.
o. M. Towner, general manager of the
Edgmoor Land Syndicate, this evening
to q Pioneer Press reporter, as he dis
cussed the future of the great northern
state. Colonel Towner is manager OF
what is best known as the Barley Syndi-
cate of Chicago. During the last two OF
three months the company has sue
ceeded in securing $50, 600 acres of land
in North Dakota, on which it is pro-
posed to place German farmers to raise
barley for malt purposes. These lands
have been purchased in Nelson, Nor
man, Towner, Ramsey, Steele and Bot.
tineau counties. The opinion of the
managers Of this company is that bar
ley can be most successfully grown in
that state and they have q conviction OF
their belief sufficiently to purchase
these lands and to send out emigrante
from other states. Germans are chosen
on account of their knowledge of barley
culture for this purpose. These emf.
grants will not be tenants but owners Of
land, it being sold to them on easy terms.
Crops will be bought by the company
and shipped to all points where there Il
q demand for barley for brewing pnr.
poses. The colonel goes west tomorrow
in company with another party Of east
ern capitalists who think of investing
in the new enterprise.

Reciprocity,s Great Field.

WASHINGTON, D. O., Nov. S.-What
will the tariff reform issue have to feed
upon when the present administration
completes the reciprocity work now
laid out? The reciprocity policy has q
great field before il. It's scope is not
yet appreciated. Even the West Indian
and Central American colonies of Great
Britain have the power, with the ap.
proval of the colonial governors, to reg
ulate duties on imports. and it is under.
stood that most of them desire to enter
into reciprocal arrangements with the
United States. The provisions of the
third section of the tariff act will soon
be il full operation. The President will
be free to exercise at his discretion the
authority with which he was clothed by
the last congress in respect to the fur

reason to believe that arrangements will
be concluded and proclaimed with
several countries, negotiations with
which have been pending for some time
past, and also that Germany will soon
be able to give public notice of her
agreement with the United States. No
time has been lost or effort spared by
the administration since the law was
enacted, to execute it's provisions by
such negotiations as have appeared to
be practicable, and large measure Of
success has already crowned those
efforts. Few persons probably are
sware that more than one fourth of all
the importations into the United States
consist of coffee. sugar and hides, which
are conditionally placed or continued
on the free list by the last congress- To
be exact the total June 80, 1890,
amounted to $789, $40, 400; and the total
value of coffee, hides, molasses. aad
sugar not above No. 10, amounted to
1901, 404 OS4.

grains. I will today attend to selling
the last Of it here. Ihave sold my wheat

weeks of good weather has put
farmers in excellent shape again. and
we are all right. The much talked of
snow storms that we're said to have
stopped threshing, didn't affect tenth
part OF the wheat area and amounted to
nothing. There are great many small
farmers who stack their wheat and com
bine in threshing. These have not
done much yet, but as say, the bulk
of the work is done and all wheat is out

This difference, and little more of No.

No, we have abundant moisture, and
farmers are much further along with

One or two more weeks of good weather

there was great deal Of late blowing,
