Relations of the Farmers Alliance
With the Scheme.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-An Inter
Ocedn'S Washington special says: Presi-
dent Polk, when interviewed regarding
the Inter Ocean, exposure of the cordage
trust, says that year ago Oswald Wilson
came to him and unfolded the scheme OF
the Alliance entering into business rela-
tons with the National Union Company.
He refused to have anything to do with
it, but later in the season he learned that
his name had been placed on the circular
by the company as Chairman of the COM
mittee of three on the part of the Alliance.
He wrote to the President of the com
pany about it and the latter promised to
rectify the error.
Senator Pfeffer said it is quite possible
some of the Alliance people have been
overreached. He does not think, how
ever that the Alliance is going TO be cap
tured by the cordage trust. The farmer
is in great distress. He sees combines on
every article he raises, and perhaps
naturally supposes the way to help him
self is to combine also. This is probably
one of the reasons why some of the ALI
ance men joined the National Union
DR.. McCune said he went to the New
York meeting last June, determined to
probe the scheme to the bottom. After
bearing the plan he saw no bar in the
way of the Alliance accepting the COM
pany's terms. He thinks the National
Union is all right.
Jerry Simpson says the Alliance had a
narrow escape from getting into the
clutches of gigantic trust, but the
scheme was happily discovered in time,
and when the Alliance met in convention
in indianapolis last November the Ma
tional Union Company went under.

Military Academy Appropriation Bill
Passed In the House.
WASHINGTON, Feb. II. = The House
passed its first regular appropriation bill
to-day, and the Representatives are con-
graduating themselves that at last the
regular work of the session has been en-
tered upon. When the Committee of the
Whole reported the amended military
academy appropriation bill, the Republi-
cans demanded the yeas and nays on one
or two Democratic amendments reducing
various items of appropriations. They
were voted down, however, and the bill
as finally passed contains various reduc-
tions, aggregating in the total about
500, 900.
The House then went into Committee
OF the Whole on the private calendar, the
question of discussion being on the bill
to credit -Aquilla Jones, late Postmaster
at Indianapolis, with S2,43S, the amount
of loss sustained by him by robbery. The
result of a standing vote on the motion to
report the bill without recommendation
was 65 to 70.

lily explained the large scope and i'm
mense Importance of the projected expo
sition. He earnestly solicited the Pope's
adhesion to and active cooperation in
the great movement which would bring
together the products of all the nations
of the world and prove an incalculable
incentive to trade in ali directions.
The Pope listened very attentively. He
said that he would be delighted to take
part in the exposition, and would con-
tribute as far as possible to the success
and eclat of the undertaking. He assured
his hearers that he was moved in the
matter by special love and admiration
for the American people.
Bryan suggested that his holiness issue
a pontitical letter embodying the senti-
ments he had expressed, and said such
document would be powerful aid in en-
listing European cooperation in the fair.
The Pope promised to comply with the
request of Mr.. Bryan. He had made
many inquiries concerning affairs in the
United States, and by his conversation in
regard to current events showed a
thorough and appreciative knowledge of
the country and its people.
Bryan atterward had a conference with
Cardinal Rampoila, Papal Secretary of
State in which arrangements were made
in regard to the details of the exhibits
which the Holy See will send to Chicago.

a hearing to a delegation of citizens from
Oklahoma and Indian Territory on Har-
vey's bill enabling the people of Okla
homa and Indian Territory to form

cipally to the argument in favor OF in
Guiding in the praposed new State all the
old Indian Territory. Clarke earnestly
argued it was the duty of Congress not to
delay the passage of an enabling Act for
Oklahoma beyond this season. ''If you

said he, you will be forced to pass the
bill at the next, for there will be 5O0,0O
people in the two Territories before the

conclusion, that sound public policy de-
manded prompt action on the pending
bill. w. p. Hackney made an earnest
argument in support of the bill.

NEW YORK, Feb. 12.-The typhus
scourge upon which the Board of Health
stumbled yesterday is increasing hour by
hour. No man can tell It's extent at this
writing. Eight additional cases were
discovered last night by the health Off
clals. The patients were all removed to
the hospital on North Brothers Island.
In the early morning hours ten new
cases were found in East Side lodging
houses that shelter the exiled Russians
from the famine districts, making sixty
seven in all up to that time. Atnoon nine
more cases were found. These houses are
in the most densely populated districts
and among the poorest tenants, and that
the plague will spread, despite the des-
perate efforts now making by the health
authorities to suppress it, there can be
little doubt. Houses known to be in
fected are under police surveillance. The
authorities have forbidden all communi-
cation with the rest of the world
The authorities have hunted up the
records of all those immigrants that
Landed on the same day and who came
in contact with the people from the Mas
silica. 1t was found that there were
elghty-two passengers on the Assyria,
from Glasgow: eighty-three on the Wis
consin, from LIVERPOOL; nine on the Po-
laric, from Palermo, and go on the
Irave, from Bremen and Southampton.
There were III on the Masslea. There
are now siXty-nine cases in the city. 1t
is feared more cases will break out.

DETROIT, Feb. 12.-The New York Sun
yesterday contained an editorial discuss
ing the military career ofGeneral Russell
A. Alger, disclosing the existence, among
the official records in the War Depart
ment, of a recommendation of Custer,
dated twenty-three years ago, that Gen
eral Alger be dishonorably discharged
for being absent from his command with
out leave. The editorial says that Alger
was discharged from service September
20, 1864, as the result of this recommended
ton. The text of the editorial was tele-
graphed to Alger last night and he made
an explicit denial of the charges made
against him stating he was honorably
discharged and not dismissed as stated.
Inthe course of his denial, General Alger
said:

at Washington, where l reported and
served little time and resigned, as | was
not able to enter the field, and did not
like the court-martial service. Along in

quested me at several times to have his
brother Thomas appointed as Lieutenant
in my regiment, as he wished to have
him serve on his staff. AS he did not
belong to my regiment declined, and in
hot conversation about it one day he
told me would regret it some day. 1

ment when l had deserving men in the

valet, who was the only person in the
room with him, rushed to his side, and
found him unconscious. DIR. Dudley TAFT
and DIR. n. Rogers were called as quickly
as possible. They gave hypodermic in

source that medical skill could suggest.
but the patient remained unconscious and

Minister of Finance, replying to Lousch-
mers, who had expressed fear that the
sale of such quantity of silver as the
Government would obtain through the
withdrawal would cause a drop in the
price of that metal, stated that the sale
would not commence until Austria had
given due consideration to the proposition
to withdraw. He added that the bill
would not prejudicially affect the selec-
ton of a favorable moment to dispose of

Democrats Unable to Agree on Spring.
er'S Wool Bill.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 12.-The Demo-
cratic members of the Ways and Means
Committee held another conference to-
day on the Springer wool bill, but, like
yesterdays conference, it ended without
an agreement being reached. The mem
bers of the committee now in this city
are nearly evenly divided on the ques-
ton as to whether or not there should be
further reduction made in the duties
than that proposed by the special Demo-
cratic Wool Committee. The arrival of
Shively of Indiana is awaited, and the
members of the committee believe then a
conclusion will be speedily arrived at as
the views Of Whiting, the only other alb
sent member, are known.
There is practical unanimity among
the Democratic members of the Ways
and Means Committee in favor of bill
reducing the duty on barley and hops.
and there is little doubt this measure will
be tavorably reported to the House.
