The question of rapid transit by underground

The question of rapid transit by underground
roads will begin to fake on a practical form
with the publication, tomorrow, of the an
nouncement that the franchise will be duly
offered at auction TO the highest bidder early
in the new year. That there will be an eager
competition to secure it can scarcely be ez-
pectd. The sum Of money involved in the
construction of the roads is too great TO make
this probable The passage of the Rapid
Transit Act year ago last January was hailed
as the beginning of the end of the city'S per-
plexities regarding transportation. We shall
soon know whether the labors of the last two
years have been in vain.

THE QUEEN AND PARLIAMENT.

A curious paragraph has been going the round Of
the papers about the desire Of the Cabinet that the
Queen shall open Parliament / suspect this desire
Is purely ina gnary, for Her Majesty has not opened
Parliament since 1886, and | quite certain that
there y not the very slightest prospect Of her being
seen at Westminster in January next. There is no
reason whatever why the Queen should put herself
TO much inconvenience In order to open Parliament,
and her strength really is not equal TO the cere
monial which Is OF exceptionally prolonged and
fatig,ing nature II is well known that In 1855
Her Majesty found 1t very trying. indeed. and was
unwell for several days afterward

BRIEFLY TOLD.

The assassination of Lightfoot, Jack
son county, Ark, negro preacher and
agent of the Liberian Emigration Socie
ty of New York, has created great ex.
element among the pegroes who declare
that emigration is the only thing left fol
them.
A Valparaiso special says the press OF
Valparaiso and Santiago contain bitter
comments ON the return of Minister
Egan. They say his coming back after
the expose of his character during the
recent campaign shows that he is devoid
of shame. They call on the government
to show him scant courtesy.
A Berlin special says grave crisis
may occur at any moment in consequence
of the rebuff suffered by Chancellor Won
Caprivi over the army bill, owing to the
attitude of the Centre party. His re-
tirement is loudly talked of. 1t is re-
garded as necessity, as the chancellor
is entirely out of touch with the people.
1t is now stated that when the Califor-
MIA legislature meets in January the
eight Peoples party members will vote
as unit for their party candidate fol
Senator. Owing to the closeness of the
two big parties this course of the Popu-
lists will prevent the election of Sena-
tor by the legislature and consequently
Governor Markham, Republican, will
name Senator Felton's successor to hold
the Office until the legislature meet
again in 1898.

THE FAYERWEATHER WILL CASE.
Bowdoin College Among the Beneficiaries
Called Into Court.

NEW YORK, December 12.-Papers
have been prepared which promise to
take into the courts again the contest
over the will of Daniel B. Fayerweather.
The present proceeding is brought by
John B. Reynolds and Morris B. Boards.
ley, as executors of the will of Mrs.
Fayerweather.
Mrs. Fayerweather died last summer.
After her death her executors decided to
press the case, and the complaint they
now serve upon the various beneticiaries
of Mrs. Fayerweather's will, and upon
Thomas G. Riteh, Justus l.. Buckley and
Henry B. Vaughan, individually and as
executors OF Mr.. Fayerweather's will, is
alleged by them to represent the wishes
which Mrs Fayerweather had expressed
before her death. They intend by this
proceeding to try to set aside the be-
quests made by Mr.. Fayerweather, and
say that they expect to do SO by proving
fraud and undue influence on the part OF
his executors.
Very few cases that have appeared in
the New York courts of late years have
cited so many defendants as this one.
The charges of fraud are made against
the executors of Mr.. Fayerweather, but
all the benefciaries of the will, whether
by his direct bequest or by deed of gift
through these executors, are cited to APP
pear as defendants at the trial. Among
these beneficiaries are the trustees OF
Bowdoin College, to whom the will left
100000.

OF COURSE, CERTAINLY.
Dunraven's Answer Which Ciinched the
Race Arrangements.

New YORK, December 12.-The Her
aid says that the messages to Lord Dun
raven following the meeting of the cup
committee last week to the effect that if
the challenger of the r. Y. S. covered all
the points agreed upon a recommends
ton to the N. Y. Y. c. to accept would
be made, was not understood by him,
and Lord Dunraven was prompt in tell
ing the committee SO. The cup commit
tee then proceeded to make clearer the
information desired, although the re-
quest embodied in the next cable to Lord
Dunraven seemed somewhat superflu-
Gus. 1t was whether his letters could
be used in explanation Of the challenge,
to which there has beeu received the an
swer, 'of course, certainly"
Straight was the road to the committee
after Lord Dunraven's last named cable.
If there had been any fears that every
thing was not just as it seemed and in
strict accordance with the lines laid
down, they were now allayed, and rumor
has it that the conclusion is, or will be,
that the committee would recommend
the New York Yacht Club to accept the
challenge.
1.-The club" the Herald adds, twill
sustain the cup committee, whatever its
action. as will be shown at the special
meet G of Tuesday night. AT that
meeting there will be large turnout of
| representative owners, as the interest in
| the challenge is very great. There may
also be provisions made or limited at
during the special meeting regarding the
better way to arrange for the coming of
the Valkyrie. Ten months will be had

Especial to the Press


In an experiment at the Utah station,
in which whole tubers, halves, quarters
and one eye and two eye cuttings were
planted, the yield increased with the
amountsof seed used, but it is reported
doubtful whether pieces larger than
three-quarters "wil yield enough more
to pay for the extra amount of seed re-
CURED" Pieces cut from the stem end
of potatoes gave larger yields than those
cut from the seed end. Experiments
with large and small potatoes for seed
during two years have given inconclu-
sive results. Flat culture of potatoes
gave much better results than ridge Gull
ture. The newer varieties most promis-
ing are Hoffman, Governor Rusk and
Rural New Yorker No. 2.
At the Maryland station varieties used
in an experiment, in which large and
small whole potatoes, two or three eye
pieces and one eye pieces were planted,
were Early Rose, New Queen, Dakota
Red and Early Harbinger. The results
of this and of two previous experiments
indicated that the yield increases with
the amount of seed, but that when large
whole potatoes are used for seed there
are very many small potatoes in the
crop. The most profitable results were
obtained when small whole potatoes were
planted. n s-s.4ls

Knox County Court Matters.
Especial to the Press.l
RocKLAND, December 12.-The De-
cember term of the Supreme Court of
Knox county begins tomorrow, Judge
Foster of Bethel, presiding. There will
be large list of civil cases to come up
none being of neutrality-suspicious. unless
perhaps the Grand Trunk railroad case.
The amount of criminal business will be
correspondingly small 1t is thought
that in less than half the cases, indict-
ments will be found inasmueh as the
present grand jury failed to indict hold
ers of United States licenses at the last
term. The attempt will not be repeated.

Hunting for Big Game.

EAST HEBRON, December 12.-Some
of the boys of this place had narrow
escape from serious accident Saturday.
James Fogg had two-year-old bull that
had been left alone for about a month in
his back pasture, and on Saturday sew
eral young men with their dogs started
out to capture the bull. They put the
dogs on the animal and the bull retaliated
by turning on the men. He knocked A.
M. Fogg down twice and then chased
Fogg and the Keene boys across lots and
over fence. The men very likely owe
their lives to the dogs, while so worried
the bull that the men had a chance to
get out of the way. They finally cap
tured the bull, but it was not until after
they had killed him with rifles.

Women in the Ranks in a County Seat
War.

TOPEKA, Kan, December IA dis
patch has been received from West
Plains stating that the people in and
around Springfield, Seward county, were
arming themselves with Winchesters and
revolyers, ready to defend themselves
and hold the county records against the
armed mob marching to that place from
Liberal.
A passenger who arrived on the Rock
Island train said the Liberal men, to the
number of 75, who marched toward
Springfield yesterday, did not make an
attack because they had learned that the
county records had been moved to Arka-
lon, five miles distant, and that an armed
posse of Springfield men was in posses
sion of and guarding them. He said the
plans were to keep out spies, and. when
I le Springfield men started back with
the records to attack them on the prairie
and capture them.
Such an alta k would mean massacre,
as tue people of the county are about
evenly divided ON the location of the
county seat.
Several resolute women have Joined
their husbands in both posses and are
carrying revolvers, declaring they will
use them if necessary. 1t is believed
that the Springfield men will endeavor to
spirit the records back to Springfield to-
night, but they cannot enter the town
without the Liberal forces knowing it,
and fight will ensue.
Should they wait until tomorrow they
may run into the entire Liberal posse
and in that event blood will flow freely.
Judge Botkin, one of the causes of the
trouble in the county, has resigned and
moved to Hutchinson, but it is known
he is in sympathy with the Liberal men,
and this fact makes the Springfield advo-
Gates the more desperate and determined.
