IN commenting upon the spread of
cholera in Europe, the Minneapolis
Times saws:
There is no question whatever but
the outbreak in the continental cities
is primarily due to neglect upon the
part of authorities and individuals to
observe such methods of cleanliness
and rules for sanitary wholesomenesS
as would have given the disease no
food to feed upon, and for this remiSS-
ness the penalty must be paid by loss
of human live equalling the slaughter
of many battles.
1t then urges that everywhere a
thorough cleaning up be instituted at
once. That the citizens take hold
with the public authorities and see
that every nook and corner is cleared
of decaying vegetation and filth, as in
no other way can security from the
cholera be had, should it reach this
country. Ex-Surgeon General Hamil-
ton says that while there is no reason
for getting alarmed about the cholera,
there is reason for using every posi-
BILE precaution to prevent its appear
ance, chief among which is the re-
moval of everything that would tend
to breed the disease, and thorough
examination as to the purity of drink
ing water. These precautions taken,
he thinks there is no danger from
cholera in epidemic form whatever.

SOME one has been making an in
vestigation into what it would cost
the various states if direct taxation
should be resorted to in raising the
vast sum of money to pay the expenses
of the federal government, and has
found that Minnesota's share would
be about SIS, 100000. This would be in
addition to the taxes now levied This
would fall heavily upon the taxpayers
of this state if Senator Vests war to
the determination of the protection
system were successful, and direct
free trade adopted. If the free trad
er's theory is correct it would simply
mean that Minnesota would get her
manufactures for IS, 100000 less than
they are now furnished. But every
one knows that such would not be the
case, as many articles now cost but
little if any more than the amount of
the tariff imposed upon them. The
adoption of the free traders theory
would simply mean heavier taxation
of what belongs to the common people
while the rich would benefit from the
change, if the burdens were in any
way lightened, because they are the
ones who the most largely buy the i'm
ported article.

THE CHOLERA IN GERMANY.
No New Cases at Berlin-Reports from
Hamburg.

No New Cases at Berlin-RepOrts from
Hamburg.
BERLIN, Aug. 29.-At conference of
the ministry Of the interior it was de-
cided to publish daily the number of
cases of cholera reported throughout
Germany. The ministry of the interior
took this action at the suggestion of the
emperor, who believes that tne plague
can be fought more advantageously if
the people understand the exact nature
of the peril to which they are exposed.
In Berlin especially such course is re-
garded as advisable, because panic can
be averted by the publication of all the
facts. The city was never cleaner or
healthier and with proper preventive
measures it probably can be kept COM
paratively free from the infection. Fol
the last thirty-six hours no fresh cases
have been discovered.
Reports from Hamburg show that the
uneasiness in that city is increasing.
The people place little confidence in the
reports now given out, believing that
the number of victims is purposely mis-
represented and that the mortality is in
creasing rapidly. In the absence of
record which the people trust, exagger-
ated reports have been circulated, and
many who had resolved to stay at home
have suddenly moved out with their
families. The principal cause of appre
hension now is that panic may develop
in Hamburg and the partial scattering
of the city's population may produce in
lection in districts hitherto untouched

BUFFALO, Aug. 20. - sensation,
second only to that caused by the failure
OF he National Savings Bank, was
caused by the announcement that State
Bank Examiner W hilton had found two
savings banks and loan associations
practically insolvent and that many
others are in an unsafe condition. The
associations reported as insolvent are the
Third Ward Permanent Savings and
Loan ASSOCIATION and the Erie County
Permanent Savings and Loan associa-
ton: Examiner Whitton has been
giving his attention to the savings,
building and loan associations since the
books of the National Bank were
Strengthened out. Up to the present
time he has examined six of these
soclties, among them being two known
as Dime Associations, where dues are
paid in at the rate of 10 cents week on
each share, and which are run upon
what is known as the permanent plan.

bad shape and has so reported to the
banking department.
"These associations" Mr.. Wilton
says, "have been doing an entirely
illegal business. Their system is merely
making false entries on somebody's
books. They have been dividing and
paying money representing a premium,
which could only be earned so much per
annum during the life of a loan. The
loan usually ran from ten to twelve
years. Profits were declared the very
night money was sold. They We're
anticipating profits by twelve years and
these concerns should be wound up at
once. There are probably eighty of
these permanent dime associations, and
shall not be surprised to find most of
them in pretty bad shape"
Mr.. Wilton is awaiting the action of
the banking department in regard to
these two associations and is continuing
his examination of other such concerns
doing business in a smaller way.

Strong Case Made by the State Against

FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. 80. The
hearing in the Borden case will be re-
sumed at 10:45 a. IN. The defense has
been actively engaged in Newport dur
ing the day learning something regard
ing Bridget Sullivan's career in that
city. Her past employers speak very
highly of her and say she was devoted
church member. Her mistaken testi-
mony has done much to establish the
strength of the case of the government
Enough evidence has now been intro
duced to warrant binding over Miss Liz
zie until the grand jury. The hearing
has been by no means ended as Professor
Wood is yet to be heard on the charac-
ter of the blood spots ON the linen, axe
and other articles taken from the Bor-
den house. The defense now propose to
call witnesses who will show that much
of DR.. Dolan's testimony is unreliable.
Ex-Medical Examiner D. w. Ely has
been all active listener to the trial and it
is understood that he will be called as
an expert on the part of the defense to
disprove much of the testimony that has
been given. Marshal Hillard will not

AFTER HIDDEN TREASURE.
Years ago the story of the buri

Years ago the story of the buried
treasures of Captain Kidd, along the
Atlantic coast caused many man to
dream of becoming suddenly rich by
finding them, and many were the
hours spent in hunting for the place
where they were said to be secreted.
This hunt for lost treasures seems to
have partial revival in the search Of
Capt. Symonds, who is at the head of
diving expedition at the mouth of
Long Island Sound, looking for the
treasure of the British warship, Hus-
Sar, lost there over a century ago
From the Investigations he has made,
Capt. Symonds thinks he has found
the spot where the warship went
down. 1t is known that there was a
large amount of treasure on board the
Hussar, and it is variously estimated
at from one million to about four mill
lion dollars. The Captain claims to
have found some coins and gold bars
that were on board the Hussar, and
this seems to be the foundation for
the belief that he has located the
treasure. However, there seems to
be general opinion that the action
of the waves has diSintegrated the
mass Of treasure, and that if it is
found at all, it will only be in drib-
lets. The story of the ,Hussar is an
interesting one and now that search
has been instituted and the claim
made that coins from the Inflated
vessel have been found. an interest
will undoubtedly be kept up for years
to come.
The HuSSar was sent to the colonies
during the Revolutionary war loaded
with bullion for the payment of the
British troops. Her commander, being
in haste to reach New York harbor,
took the short cut by way of Long
Island sound, and sought entrance
through the rocks and shoals of He'll
Gate. Expert pilots have succeeded
in steering through the rocks and rap
ids at this point, and the commander
of the Hussar supposed he could do
likewise. But his calculations were
amiss. He stove a hole in the bottom
of his vessel, and in his extremity set
her nose for the Long Island shore
There she sank, only to be buffeted
and swallowed up for a century by the
waves of the Atlantic.

THE London Times is of the opinion
that the British representatives to
the international monetary confer
ence are opposed to the use of silver,
and will oppose any measure looking
to its adoption by the various nations
which will be represented at the con-
ference. This has always been the
position maintained by England, but
from the expressions of some of the
leading public men of that country
during the past six months, there has
been feeling that change of heart
had been experienced and that some
understanding could be arrived at
whereby final settlement of the
troublesome question might be arriv-
ed at.

Chiliaps Prohibit Sealing,

NEW YORK. Aug. 80. "A cablegram
to The Herald, from Valparaiso says the
Gillian government asks that publicity
be given to the prohibition of sealing in
the Straits of Magellan, the Chilio
islands and Juan Fernandez, in order to
prevent sealers from fitting out in New
London for the coming season. Notice
will soon be issued by Argentina of a
similar restriction of sealing. The
foreign Office is preparing circular for
Gillian ministers abroad, setting forth
the terms of the negotiations pursued
by Minister Errazuriz relative to the
claims of Peruvian bondholders and the
French credit of Peru.

Hundreds of Creditors.

JACKSON, Mich, Aug. 29.-The w. F.
Cowan failure has developed into the
most complicated and serious business
wreck that has ever occurred in this
city. Creditors are still arriving from
various parts of the country and there
are now representatives of 100 of them
in the city. Their claims will fully
reach the first estimate of $3.50, 900. The
creditors have made every effort to get
track of the goods, but in every instance
a large share of stock has been disposed
of. 1t is believed they will be able to
show fraud.

caused $4,000 pensioners to be dropped
from the roll last year, that next year
the number will be swelled to 10000
and in 1894 it will reach $4,000 Pos
sibly this fact will so please some of

takes to maintain some European

VARIOUS OPINIONS.

Albert Lea Enterprise: The idea
that the old Globe should lend it's aid
to assist in furthering the interests
of decency is so ridiculous that no one
will think seriously of it for any
length of time. The fund to be raised
in each case is for currupt uses and
the boldness with which the scheme
is placed before the people illustrates
the depravity to which the instigators
have sunk.
Anoka Union: Minnesota is one of
the most prosperous states in the
Union, and it's all on account of hav-
ing Republican administrations. Re-
publicanism and prosperity go hand
in hand.
Window Reporter: The Democratic
party has always been an enemy to
wool and the wool grower. The fact
that the wool industry is growing I'M
der protection and rapidly developing
in all parts Of the Union is an insur-
mountable obstacle in the path of the
free trader who seeks to bring the for
sign article here for Americans to use
and to convey our money to some one
in foreign lands.
Minneapolis Journal: The failure
of the switchmen is complete. 1t is a
CONSPICUOUS instance where not IN
reasonable demand as to time and
wages were brought to naught by the
fatal resort to violence at the very
outset. After the business of derail-
ing and burning trains and hurting
coupling pins at non-union men be-
gan, public sympathy was withdrawn
and the law abiding citizens saw that
the supreme duty of local and state
authorities was to subdue the rioters
as promptly as possible ana maintain
authority.

HOT ON THE TRAIL.
Troops Take the Field i'm Pursuit of
the Bandits.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. IA special TO
the Times-D Democrat from San Antouio
says: A dispatch from CarriZo states that
two companies of the United States Third
Cavalry had arrived there from Fort Nc
lntosh under command of Lieutenant Het-
tinCton in search of the Mexican bandits
who committed the bloody onslaught on
Mexican troops at San Ygnacie last Satur-
day. There is also large force of United
States Deputy Marshals in the field search
ing for the maTaudeTs.
The dispatch states that the revolution
lists were under the command of Eustagardo
Ramon, known as n notorious outlaw on
the lower Rio Grande. In an attempt to
arrest him for the murder of another Mexi-
can at Carmegeo, eight years ago. he killed
the Sheriff and escaped to the Texas side
OF the river, taking up residence in Starr
County. In the battle at San Ygnacio, on
Saturday Captain Seegar and Lieutenant
Lopez. with four Mexican soldiers. sought
refuge in jacket from the fury of the in
surgents.
The place was surrounded and Ramon
set fire to the structure, roasting six men
alive. In addition to this it is stated that
he killed four other Mexieans in the fight
with his own hand. The Mexican scouts
in attendance at the United States court In
San Antonio have been summarily ordered
TO the front to aid in locating the bandits.
