RUDINI STEPS DOWN.
He and His Entire Ministry Announce
Their Resignation.

The Marquis di Rudini has announced
the resignation of the ministry, In conse-
quence OF the vote Of want OF confidence
in the Italian Chamber OF. Deputies. Great
political excitement continues to prevail
and all parties are discussing the future.
While it has been asserted. seml-officlally,
that the foreign policy of the government
will not be affected, the general I'M
preston Is that 1t will inevitably be
affected, as the troubles that have led
to the resignation are entirely due to finan-
cial distress caused by the maintenance of
Italy's place in the triple alliance. The
Austrian and German representatives are
In constant communication with their gov
ernments as TO the crisis, and 1t is reported
that the utmost anxiety is felt both In Ber-
lin and Vienna. At the French embassy
there Is little concealment of the JOY felt
over the downfall Of the Rudini Ministry
and the causes leading TO IL, which French
men unofficially declare insure the sever
ance OF Italy from the triple alliance

Minnesota Wheat All Right.

The Minneapolis elevator companies OPP
Grating in Northern Minnesota and North
Dakota have received reports from nearly
100 stations giving the present condition of
seeding operations. The condition In North
ern Minnesota IS, on the whole, very
favorable. The work has been little
delayed, but favorable weather this
week will bring it out all right with the ex-
ception Of few points on low areas. In
North Dakota the situation is less favora-
BILE. AT some places no seeding has boon
done, and farmers are a good deal discour-
aged. The delay is caused by great sur
plus OF rain, which has left the ground too
wet for work. Favorable weather this
week would do much TO help the work out,
but the prospect is for decreased acreage.
In Minnesota there will be an increased
acreage.

The Exclusion Bill Declared TO BE Fla
grant Violation of Treaty Stipuiations.
An emphatic protest by the Chinese
Minister has been filed at the State De-
partment against the Chinese exclusion
act, which has just become law. The
protest indeed was filed before President
Harrison had attached his signature to the
bill in the hope that he might veto Ii. The
protest goes over the history OF American
legislation and the treaties by which
China and the United States have
bound themselves and declares this par
ticular bill to be the most fragrant and d.
rect violation of treaty stipulations which
has ever passed Congress. The scathing
denunciations of the measure which were
uttered on the floor of the two houses by
Senator Sherman, Congressman Hit, and
other opponents OF the bill are turned to
good account In the prot ssh as descriptions
OF the real character OF the measure by
American statesmen. There is IL fine vein
OF irony running through some OF these
citations although it is carefully yelled in
diplomatic language.

Business Retarded in Most of the Western

r. G. Dun & Co. IS weekly review OF trade
says:
Business has been much retarded
throughout most OF the Western States by
unusual and continued rain. The move
ment of products Is thus delayed, though
IL is believed temporarily; collections are
retarded; seeding in many quarters is in
terrupted, though on the whole fairly
advanced for the season; and distribution
of goods is checked. A somewhat better
tone appears at the South, and business
at the East Is fairly active for the season,
although in some lines dull and depressed.
Money is everywhere abundant, In part be-
cause the demand is smaller than usual,
but this is in a measure due to the unusual
conservatism of the trade, buyers making
many small purchases instead Of larger
purchases and waiting more carefully for

ALEX ANDRIA is INUNDATED.
The Dcs MoInes River Breaks the Levees
and Sweeps Through the Town.

Alexandria, Mo-, is under water.
The levees which protected the town
ordinarily from the waters Of the Des
Moines River succumbed on Thursday
night, and as result the town is a lake,
dotted here and there by houses in
which the water is standing from two to
six feet deep. The disaster was antici-
pated. All the prior day tho Dcs Moines
was booming, the result of heavy rains
along its course through Iowa. The
advfces from above showed that il would
reach high-water mark. Those residents
who had upper stories to their buildings
moved their household goods there, and
extended the courtesies of storage to
those not similarly favored. When the
water broke it found tenantless floors
over which TO splash. {
The town was Venice. All commu-
nication was by boat. The waters Of
the Des Moines leave that river above
town, and, flowing through Alexandria,
join the Mississippi below. 1t will be
impossible to transact any business
whatever until the floods go down and
the levees can be repaired. The tracks
of the st. Louis, Keokuk and Northwest
ern and the Keokuk and Northwestern
have been~washed out, and traffic is at
standStill.
