a TURKISH KICK.

CHICAGO, Nov 15--The following letter,
which is self-explanatory, was received by
the city officials yesterday. from Secretary
of State Foster:
IMPERIAL LEGATION OF TURKEY,
"WASHINGToN, ID. c.. Nov. IA
.Mr Secretary OF state.
MIR. Robert Levy, Ottoman concession
airy for the Chicago exposition, informed
me during his recent visit to that city that
certain Syrian Christians. aided by certain
American missionaries, propose to have a
mosque built outside of the exposition
grounds in order 10 show the Americ4 ans,
for money, what n Mussulmans religious
e,ifice is. This is the same rs if in an
Asiatic city inhabited by Mussulmen a
number of persons among them should
erect a church for the purpose of showing
Mnssulmen what a Christian religious
ediiice is.
Your excellency Will, think. readily
see that such thing cannot be tolerated
in the United States. where all religions,
according TO the constitution, are res
pected and liouored. / therefore beg you
20 send copy of this note TO the authori-
ties of the city of Chicago, in order thus
TO prevent the erection OF any mosque
outside of the exposition grounds, es-
pecially by persons who profess a religion
which is not the Mussulman's religion
aud who are simply actuated by desire for
gain without any regard for the religious
feelings of = friendly government
''Be pleased. meantime. Mr.. Secretary
of State TO accept the assurance of my
very high considera tion.

TOPEKA, Kan, Nov. 15-There will be
more candidates before the Peoples party
caucus for United States senator this
winter than there were two years since.
Every hour since it has become definitely
known that the fusionists had elected a
majority on joint ballot some new candi-
date has entered the race. The avowcd
candidates now number eight. Mrs. Mary
i. Lease heads the list, and, though this
announcement is regarded as joke, those
who know her best think that she is in the
contest to stay, and that the little matter
of disqualification will cut no figure. Fol-
lowing is complete list of the candidates:
John L. Willis of Oskaloosa. Frank
Doster of Marion, John w. Breidenthal of
Dickinson. John Martin of Topeka, Fred
Close of Doniphan county. s. S. King of
Kansas City, Kan; A. G. Shinn of Ottawa.
and =. =. Elder of Ottawa. The names OF
David Overmyer and Ex-Governor Rob-
inson have also been discussed in the
event of the fusion Democrats holding the
balance of power.
A dispatch from ST. Francis this morn
ing states that Wilcox, Republican, has
been defeated by Griebel, populist. for the
senate in the Thirty y-ninth district. This
reduces the number of Republican sena-
tors to fifteen and gives the fusionists ten
majority in that body instead of eight.

UTAH AND STATEHOOD.

SALT LAKE CITA, Utah, Nov. 15-Tbe
Liberals of Utah are greatly depressed
over the victory of the Democrats. 1t is
generally conceded that one of the first
acts of the Democratic senate will be to
rush through bills for the admission of
Utah, Arizona and New Mexico, by which
six votes will be added to its Democratic
strength. IL is believed that if an extra
session of the Fifty-third congress shall be
called the senate will doubtless take up
this work first while the house is engaged
on other matters. The house at the last
session put itself on record as being in
favor of all three territories being admit
ed as states. The senate committee
favored the admission OF New Mexico and
Arizona, but halted on Utah. 1t is possible
that some or all Of these territories
may be allowed statehood before the pres
ent congress closes. 1t is argued here that
statehood fer u tab means the return Of
the Mormons 10 power. Women would
undou btedly be eufranchlzed, as they
were before the passage of the Edmunds-
Tucker law, aud thus 1000 Gentlles would
be pitted against 2S, 600 Mormons. The
church preteuds not TO take any part in
politics, its members having left the old
Liberal party and divided on national
party lines, but ii is nevertheless ohserya-
bic that hint from the tabernacle has a
mighty influence on the brethren. j. W.
Rswiius, Democrat, was last week
elected delegate to congress as the result
of a contract entered into more than Il
year ago between the Mormon church and
the local Democratic party.

THE HAWAIIAN s,JcAR RING

San FRANCISCO, Nov. 15-Tbe annual
meeting of the stockholders of the Hawaii
an Consolidated Sugar company was held
today. President John d. Spieckels made
report, showing that the drought In the
Hawaiian islands had reduced last years
sugar crop to less than s, 900 tons, and that
owing to the tariff on sugar low range of
prices prevailed. 1t had not only been i'm
possible TO pay dividends, but the company
had been compelled TO borrow 500, 600
to carry on the work Of saving the
growing crops The bondholders, he
stated, would serve notice of foreclosure,
and, as he could see no way of meeting
their demands and ofputting the company
on firm basis in the future, ne could only
recommend a surrender 20 them OF the
company's property.
The report OF the treasurer was read,
showing assets OF the company aggregat-
ing S. 932 600, with Liabilities of 81, ,20o, 900.
Since the organization of the company
$40. 600 had been paid as dividends
The stock holders decided to pay the
companys Indebtedness as far as possible
and 10 continue operations. They will
look 10 congress to adopt more favorable
tariff legislation

A coNeeDFRaTE HOME.

HIGGINsyILLE. Mo-, Nov l5.-The laying
of the corner stone aud the dedics tion OF
the main building of the ex Confederate
home took place today with impressive
ceremonies, under the auspices OF the Ma
sonic fraternity. The Rev. John Devincal
of St. Louis was the speaker of the day.
Uniformed lodges OF the knights OF
Pythias were present from all parts of the
state. Addresses were also made by Rev.
G. G. Woods of ST. Louis. Senator Geores
O. Vest and James Zimmerman, president
OF the state ex Confederate association. II
is to this association, aud largely to the
efforts of President Bannerman, that the
ex-Confederaies owe the erection OF the
home. 1t Is situated on pretty tract OF
land, and many cottages have been built
on the grounds and are ready for occu-
pancy. There is enough mouey on hand

THE FRENCH MINISTRY.

PARIS, Nov. 15.-The present week is
liklv to be momentous one for the French
cabinet. There is a growing opinion that
the ministry is only waiting chance to
go out gracefully. The chamber. of
deputies has already abolished the duties
on certain drinkables against the advice
of the ministers thus diminishing the
revenues by S. 900 0UV francs and upseJting
the finance minister's budget schemes.
On "Wednesday the government will press
It's bill asking for power TO suppress vio-
lent anarchist papers. II is. believed that
the chamber will reject the bi as mole
of censuring the prime minister's weak
ness in dealing with anarchists. On
Thursday the Panama canal question will
b. debated. and this is likely 10 bring on n
crisis. The government may elect TO fall
either Of these questions or on the
Franco Swiss convention. Should The
ministry be overthrown il is likely that
NJ Ribot, the present minister of foreign
affsiss and NJ de Freyciaet, the present
minister of war, Will O1 retained IN the
remodeled cabinet. The outcome OF the
weeks events is watched with great inter-
est in political circles The Radicals will
not lose an opportunity 10 overthrow the
present government
PARIS Nov. l5-The cabinet has decided
to make the bill giving TIE government
power to suppress violent snarchistic
newspapers question of confidence. The
debate on The bill comes up tomorrow,
and u crisis is Imminent.

NEW NAVAL VESSELS.

NEW YORK. Nov. l5.-The navy depart
ment has decided to place six new vessels
OF the navy in commission. Orders to this
effect have just been received at the vari-
Gus naval stations. and early In December
will see the first Of them flying commits
sion pennant. The six vessels are the
gunboat Machias, the Naval academy
practice ship Bancroft. the sister cruise rs
Detroit and Montgomery, the coast defense
battle ship Monterey and the big armed
cruiser New York. The gun boat Machias
Is at present at the yards OF her builders,
the Bath Iron works, Bath, Me. TIE Ban
croft is still at the SiiIlmore s. johnson
yards, Elizabeth, n. j. The sister cruisers
Detroit and Montgomery are at the CO.
iumoIan Iron works, Baltimore. The
Francisco, aud the New York is at the
Cramps establishment at Philadelphia.
An effort VIII be made to commission the
gunboat Castine, a sister to the Machias,
Oh Jan. 10, but as yet her orders are not
positive.
To put some of these ships in immediate
commission will involve an immense
amount OF labor, yet the navy deparsment
has not only ordered it done bnt has
specified the dates of commissioning OF all
the vessels but the Bancroft. The naval
academy vessel will fly the pennant some
time IN the early part of December, just as
soon AS she can he made ready. The
Monterey and Machias will both go in
commission on Jan. 10 next. The cruisers
New York and Detroit viii! be COM
missioned on Feb. %. The particular OBJ
Ject, as expressed al the navy department,
Tor commissioning these ships at so early
a date Is to have them in thorough state
Of readiness for the great Columbian naval
review TO De held in April of next year.
As none Of the above ships have had their
government trials they will practically be
commis sloned and accepted. As to the
ability of the various vessels to come up
TO contract very little doubt is enter
taIneo. With the exception of the New
ork, there Is no reason why the other
vessels cannot be tried officially prior to
the April rendezvous, aud they very likely
Will he tried.
just where the crews are to come from
to man the above six vessels no one, not
even the bureau of navigation people of
the navy department, seems to know, and
who have the entire control of such mat
ter. The present number of men allowed
the navy by law is $3.50 OF this number
100 are apprentice boys. The vessels of
the navy now In commisson not only have
II absOrbed all the available men of the
stipulated :, SoO, but are actually short
handed. Ii the six new warships are to
have full crews. either the crews of the
present cruising ships will have to be
stripped down to about working force or
during the coming session OF congress will
OF necessity nave 10 authorize either
temporary or permanent Increase iu the
navy. Among naval officers in prominent
positions, it is believed that au Increase ia
number TO z, 900 will enable all the ships
likely 10 be commissioned during the next
TWO years to be given at least three-Quar-
ters compliments.

| may not soon meet you again on an oc-
casion like this. l shall remember with
peculiar pleasure the friends made among
your membership, and shall never allow

Mr.. Cleveland was followed by White

ing that speechmak;ng ought to be left to

three or four weeks, and was not pleased

he continued, will put no obstacle in the
way. ICheers.l will pay my respects as
%, 600, 600 of American people"
After Mr.. Reid had spoken there were
loud cheers. He was followed by Mr..
Depew, who WAS the last speaker. He
said that it was difficult tor him to follow
the trend Of current events. Il expected,
he said, ito be here tonight attending the
obsequies of distinguished friend OF
mine, (laughter] and had prepared an
eulogy which would be satisfactory to the
deceased. | discover. however, that | have

meeting. | find that the places are

Continuing, he said that he believed
that as the Democratic party had had
thirty years in which TO study the political
history of the country, they should be
ready TO present their program at the first
opportunity and without delay The peo-
pie had decided in favor of change. lie
hoped that there would be no delays OF
legislation.
IF we are to be debating" he said, "for
the next year what is to be the policy of
the country, we will have year of stag
nation. There must be no delay. AIR.
Cleveland understands the gravity of the
situation, and has got grand oppor-
tunity. Ii he succeeds he will be the mag
net OF the political history Of his time,
who. will have given the country the
policy it sought-the creed for which it
clamored." Loud applause.l
