participated IN by the highest Prutestaut
clergy OF the empire, generals of thu army,
ministers OF state and officials from the MIL
itary, naval and civil departments. Then fol-
lowed the Protestant princes of Germany,
with resinue, and representatives of the
Protestant foreign sovereigns. The cmper.
or and suite brought up the rear. under es-
cort of squadron of cavalry. The process
sion moved from the town hall to the church
at the door of which the emperor received
the key from the architect. The emperor
presented it to the church council, who in
turn handed it to DR.. Quandt, the pastor.
The imperial party and guests then passed
into the church, where appropriate services
were held, at the conclusion of which the
emperor signed the decd of dedication.
The procession then reformed, moved to
Luther's house and there reviewed the grand
historical pageant illustration Of the founda-
ton and Developments of Wittenberg and
of the reformation.
The party then repaired to the refectory,
where banquet was awaiting them. At it's
conclusion Emperor William arose and de-
llvered speech. He concluded by raising
the cup which Wittenberg had presented to
Luther on the occasion of his wedding.
This cup" he said, ''once touched Luther's
lips. 1t shall serve me to drink to the well
fare of my llustrious guests. Long life to
the Protestant princes of Germany and the
governments of the German free towns"

Interview With Attorney General Miller.
INDIANAPOLIS, November 5.-The attention
of Attorney General Miller was called to
circular sent out from democratic headquar-
tiers in New York, urging resistance to the
use of arms by United States marshals with
in $50 feet of the polls, and he was asked
what would be the action of the federal au-
thoritles. Mr.. Miller was inclined to be
reticent. He said the matter YVES one that
was in the hands of the acting attorney gen.
eral at Washington.
He did not think democrats really meant
to advise armed resistance to the United
States authorities, but was inclined to regard
the circular as being simply in line with the
campaign literature that is always sent out
for effect at this stage of great campaign.
Mr.. Miller thought that there would be no
federal marshals except where they were
needed and where they had been regularly
applied for and appointed. and he was con-
WINGED that where they were properly author
lied democrats and republicans alike would
respect their authority.

It Comes High, But :

GUTHRIE, U. T., November although
negligence and ignorance on the part of the
officials a serious complication has arisen in
this territory, and it is questionable whether
more than half of the counties in the terrific
~ can hold legal election.
The Australian system, as adopted here,
provides that IN every county the entire tick
ct territorial, congressional and local) must
be officially printed in two newspapers for
two weeks preceding the election. In fully
half the counties this has not been complied
with and it is feared their vote cannot be
counted.
The printing of the tickets is expensive
and added to it the other costly and useless
machinery of the system, will make the ex-
pense of holding an election run up in the
thousands Tor each county. In number of
counties holding this election will cost more
than the entire expenditures for all other Of
fetal business during the year past.

WRECKS ON THE LAKES.
A Terrible Wind Did a Great
Deal of Damage.
Wrecks and Mishaps to shipping Reported
Many Vessels Blown Ashore. Yet
Loss of Life is Small, ~ Yet
Exported.

The most severe gale that has ever been
known on Lake Erie at this season OF tho
year blew all Sunday night, and the result u
that half dozen vessels arc now aground in
Cleveland harbor, and along the shore near
the city. Thus far no lives are reported lost.
Reports come in at Detroit of wrecks and
other mishaps to shipping, caused by the
terrific wind storm, from different points on
the lakes. Considering the number of YES
sells blown ashore and wrecked, tho loss of
life is very light. emily two drownings being
reported thus far. Many people are reported
missing and their fate is not yet known.
At Manistee, Mich, the schooner Nellie
Hammond was sunk by striking a pier while
Dntering the harbor. Her captain, Louis
Michallson, was washed overheard and
drowned, the remainder of the crew escap-
ing. This boat carried load of grain from
Milwaukee to Manistee.
The life saving. crew returned to Manistee
from Free Soil, ten miles south of there,
where they took off the crew of the steamer
Mishicot, which is ashore. The vessel ID
sound and right side up. The captain says
that after the storm goes down she will be
EASILY pulled off.
The schooner Lilly Pratt is on the beach
near Frankfort, scuttled. Another schooner
st anchor is likely to 60 ashore, and the scow
Mozart, of Onekama, lies side on, about 100
rods from shore. Thewind at one time reached
sixty miles an hour. The average velocity
was forty five.

Wholesalers vs.. the Sugar Trust.

Wholesalers Va. tho Sugar Trust.
CHICAGO, November LA meeting of the
Wholesale grocers of this city was held at the
request of w. F. Osborne, the New York rep.
fesentative of the Sugar trust, who present
ed to them what is known az the Equality
and reb te plan," but after half hours de-
liberation it was unanimously rejected. This
means that Chicsgo's wholesale grocers de-
cline to be dictated to by the trust. If they
want to buy sugar for five cents and sell for
four cents it is their business and no concern
OF the Sugar trust.
The equality and rebate plan" was pro-
posed at the national meeting of the whole
sale grocers in New York last June, and
would have been adopted had 1t not been
for the active oppo ition of Chicago supple
mented by nearly all the leading houses 10
Milwaukee, Detroit, Indianapolis and st.
Joseph.
The meeting had no sooner adjourned than
sly work was begun by the trust and its
friends to work the opposition over to the
scheme. and few weeks ago an ingenious
circular was sent out con6dentially to the
wholesale grocers 1t IS in INGENIOUS because
it seeks to evdde the trust law of Missouri,
by claiming that it would promote competi-
ton, and at the same time contains the out
line of plan that would totally destroy all
competition and put the sugar trade entirely
into the hands of the trust with power to
dictate prices and limit the output.

In reply will say that have appointed dep

with positive written instructions to arrest
all violators of the election laws and to keep
peace and order, and l am quite sure they
will do their duty. As to any threats being
made, / have not heard of them. And if
any attempts are made have plenty of men
to support the law. l understand that they
have made their brags that they would take
charge of the elections; tina. they would go
inside the room and inside the ropes if they
wanted to and were gong to. Now, if they
attempS anything of the kind l will Ger
tainly have them arrested if can deputize
determined that there shall be no disturb
snces or fuss on the day of the election and
don't apprehend any, only at Notasulgo,
and really not there, for think it is all talk
and a bluff. I don't know that they have
said ANYTHING there of my knowledge. Re-

There may be men enough to kill me, but
