DAIRYMEN CONVENE.
Butter and Cheese Makers at the

MADISON, Wis. Feb. 16.-Creamery
Buttermakers and the Factory Cheese
makers Association of the United
States began its annual session in the
assembly chamber tonight. At the out
set. the association is confronted by
serious row among the salt men over
rule which has been passed prohibiting
exhibitors from making an exhibit OF
more than one tub of salt. The exhib-
ltors, having sent eight or ten tubs
each, are also naturally indignant. The
dairy salt manufacturers are blamed.
The constitution was amended so as
to allow the admission to mem bership of
persons not necessarily engaged solely
in butter or cheese Making. Gov. Peck
and Gen. Fairchild delivered welcome
addresses. EX-Gov. Hoard. of Wiscon-
sin, and Clinton B. Smith, of the Mime
sofa experiment station, were among
the speakers. The latter, while ex-
tOlling the merits of his commonwealth
as dairy state, paid high compliment
to Wisconsin in the statement that Min
nesota obtained her leading instruction
from the Badger state.

torially comments on the visit of the
Canadian cabinet ministers to Washing
ton, and says: elf it is true that the
Canadian commissioners have failed in
their mission to Washington because
they did not have authority from the
imperial government to negotiate, it
does not say much Tor the knowledge
of diplomacy possessed by Mr.. Abbott
and Sir john Thompson. What sort of
men are they to be trusted with the gov
ernment of country, when they fail
in the first movement for lack of es-
sential authority to act? If they cannot
make trade terms with the United
States which would discriminate against
Great Britain without leave of the inn
perial government being first obtained.
how can they justify before the Caua-
dian parliament the course which they
have pursued? Whatever the cause
may have been Canada is humiliated.

New ORLEANS, Feb. 16.-Andrew
Carnegie, the millionaire iron manu-
facturer of Pittsbulg, arrived in New
Orleans yesterday morning, accompa-
MED by his wife and number of
friends. In an interview Mr.. Carnegie
said: "Relative te the iron industry, l
can say that the Mckinley bill has been
a blessing, not only to manufacturers,
but also to the workingmen. President
Harrison will be the nominee of the
Republican party in the next campaign,
and he will be elected, even if the
whole undivided and solid Democratic
party stands arrayed against him. All
the talk about Mr.. Blaines retirement
from the cabinet is nonsensical. He
will not withdraw. AS TO the silver bill,
| believe that the house will pass it, but
it will fail in the senate. Even if it does
pass the latter body, the president will
veto the bill"

perts in this line. The investigation has con-
sumed considerable time and has been Q thor

the government is defective. Vault No. 1 in
the treasury building is absolutely valueless
as q protection to its contents Other vaults
named in the report are also described 40

The commission recommends that with such
immense values at stake, the government

placing of every vault In the treasury building
with new ones In rebuilding the new ones
