great stores of coal, ammunition and
provisions have been forwarded on
both the Atlantic and Pacific coasts. so
that the fleet should be amply supplied
III case foreign ports should be closed 10
them. Arrangements had been made
Tor the immediate use of number of
transports and auxiliary cruisers, and
the steamship Ohio was to be fitted out
at Boston as repair ship. Four steam
SHIPS were chartered from the Earn
Line Steamship company, laden with
coal and sent to MontevideO. 1t Is be-
lleVed that one of them has already
reached MOntevideO, and that the others
VIII arrive there in a short time. These
vessels were TO be used as golfers
and would ply between the naval fleet
and home ports. The steamer Benito
had been chartered for similar service
on the Pacific coast and other arrange
mentS made so as 10 secure delivery of
10000 tons of coal a month at point
convenient for the naval vessel. 1t was
contemplated to make an early seizure
OF Gillian port for use as base of
supplies. These preparations entailed
great expense, roughly estimated at
about S2,000.000. The foregoing esti-
mate includes coal. the additional eX-
penSe attending the pushing of work on
vessels now under contract and the
extra work at the different yards and
shops. The order of officers and men
TO the ONO has been revoked and the
work OF fitting her out suspended. The
department will now be busy for a long
time undoing many Of its preparations
and restoring the naval establishment
to its usual basis.

JUMP ON wAsHBURN's BILL.
The Measure Distasteful to the
Duluth Board of Trade.

Special to the Globe.
DULUTH, Jan. 2S.-The directors of
the Duluth board of ts.de adopted the
following resolution today:
That the abo ton of dealing in futures of
sarm products would result in narrow mar
kets, confined to few traders AS rule
board and general markets while narrowing
the range of fluctuations, tend to higher
level OF price Of ali products. Producers are
compelled to seek purchasers. Any
cause tending to lessen the number
range of prices, allowing the buyers wider
margin of profits, especially where they must
provide for possible deliveries, which cannot
be guarded against by sales of futures AS a
rule speculative traders buy futures and not
the cash product and these purchasers con-
stitute the main support of the market at all
times. The prosperity of members of all
commercial bodies, and of the whole
OF the producer and we believe
the abolition of dealing in futures would re-
suit III immense injury to all commercial in
terests and a financial panic, while trade
the entire purchasing interests would be
placed i'll the power of comparatively few
miEers, who would fix prices to allow them
sure margin-no matter how great decline
might occur. We also believe the deal
ing in futures would only be trans
ferred from the United States to for
eign countries. The countries, being con
sumers, are naturally interested in lower
prices. AS the price Of futures sets a value
on cash products, the foreigners would fix
much lower range of prices for all farm prod
ucts. 49,
Basing our requests upon the foregoing
reasons we respectfully ask the United States
senate aud house of representatives to defeat
any bin having in view the suppression of
dealing in futures OF farm products

The North Star Clubs Are for the

Special to the Globe
SAUK RAPIDS, Mimi. Jan. 2S.-YOur
correspondent interviewed r. j. Bell,
president of the North Star Association
of Clubs, i'll this village. in regard to
the Kallstead article which appeared in
the GLOBE on the 23d, regarding the
working of that party in the interests
of d. b. Hill, and he informed him that
he was in close intimacy with leading
members of that association, and he had
as yet heard no talk in that regard. He
stated that he was Cleveland man, and
that so was the gentleman from Owa-
tonna; that the objects and principles
of the association have been set down
in the circulars issued tosthe Democ-
racy of the state, and should receive
some weight in the mind of Kallstead,
as against the opinion Of his
informant, whom he claims is
an active and leading politician.
He says the North Star association does
not believe in bosslsm, and that who
ever is nominated on the Democratic
ticket can expect the support of that as
ISOLATION, though it must be conceded.
he says. that Hill is a growing factor
and possible presidential nominee by
the party, and the democratic party of
this country must be prepared to ac-
cept the nominee, whoever he may be,
with the best possible grace.

CRUEL PERSECUTION.
The Warden Family Pestered by
ScoundreI.

SCOunurei.
HANOVER, n. H., Jan. 2S.-The IA
nous Warden barns at the home of
Frank Almy's victim have been
thoroughly searched this after
noon by about forty college stu
dents under the direction of Prof.
G. Ii. Pettee, with some expectation
of finding a man believed by the War
dens to be lurking Whereabouts with in
tent to do them harm. The family has
received several anonymous letters de-
claring the intention of the man to take
the lives of members of the family; I'M
accountable noises at night have been
heard around the barn; COWS have been
MIXED and strange tracks have been
seen in the snow around the buildings.
These facts led to the belief in an
intruder, and this belief was strength
ened about two weeks ago when a
strange man was discovered in dark
paSsageWay of the barn. He dashed
quickly out of doors, and next morning
his tracks were followed some distance,
but were lost in the highway. That
there was some one there that night
there could be no doubt. Opinions DIFF
fer as to whether it was a tramp or an
old pal of Almy's who was waiting fa-
vorable opportunity to carry out the
threats made in the letters. In the hunt
that was made today every possible
hiding place was gone into, and sharply
pointed iron rods fifteen or twenty feet
long were repeatedly thurst into the
big hay moWS, but nothing was found.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Jan. %. - Alice
Mitchell and Lille Johnson spent last
night together in their room at the jail.
The father of Lille also remained in
the office of the jail. He is fearful that
Alice will do his daughter some bodily
harm, and this fear is shared by most of
his family. All efforts to interview
Miss Mitchell have failed. but this
morning a reporter learned from good
authority what passed between her and
her counsel. On other subjects she,
seemed to be perfectly rational, and did
not realize the enormity of the deed.
Il killed Freda," said she, "because
l loved her and she refused to marry
me. l asked her to marry me three
times, and at last she consented. We
were going to marry when we got to ST,

and she wore it time, but when it was
returned to me l was miserable l
could not bear to be separated from her
and resolved to kill her. | would
rather she were dead than away from
me-"
The girl then asked one of the law
yers where Freda was. She was told
that the body was at the undertaker's.
''Oh, mamma" she said, "if l could
only see Der. Please let me go to see
her. If l could only lie down by her
side L would be so happy"
When the permission was refused
she broke into torrent of tears, not for
having killed Freda, but for the separa-
ton.
The letters that she wrote to Freda
are full of the most endearing terms,
and go to show that the girl eagerly
looked forward to the time when she
could make Freda her wife. Strange TO
say, from what can be learned,
Freda herself seemed TO be infat-
uated with Alice, and willingly
assented to the proposed marriage.
The time had been fixed and the affair
was in the nature of an elopement.
Miss Mitchell doesn't feel the confne-
ment in jail, but regards it as a school
girl would a slight punishment. On
other subjects she talks nationally, as
She does on the killing, but for the
peculiar views she entertains of the
proposed marriage. The grand jury will

WATTERSON IN LINE.
He Will Support Any Ticket Nom
mated

JACKSON, Miss, Jan. 2S.-The pres
ence of Hon. Henry Watterson in the
city today was signalized by the passage
of the highly eulOgiStic joint resolution
of the two houses of the Mississippi legis-
lature inviting Mr.. Waterson to address
the legislature in the representatives
hall. A joint committee waited upon
Mr.. WatterrOn at the hotel and con
Quoted HIM to the capitol, where he was
received with great enthusiasm by the
legislature and many citizens.
In his remarks Nj. Watterson said
that the Democratic party in congress is
practically united upon the issue of
tariff reform, and that would undoubt-
edly be the keynote to the
present situation of congress and
the leading issue of the coming
presidential campaign. He expressed
no preferences as between individual
Democrats, but declared that whatever
ticket the coming national Democratic
convention dominates will receive his
hearty support. Mr.. Watterson lectured
tonight before a large and brilliant
audience.
Gov. Stone has received a telegram
from Hon. Grover Cleveland dated New
Iberia. La, Jan. %, in response to his
telegram of Jan. 27. conveying the in
telligence that the legislature had by
joint resolution invited him to visit the
capitol as the guest of Mississippi. Mr..
Cleveland regrets exceedingly that it
is impossible for him to accept the
courteous invitation.
