Officc at the Hood River Pharmacy,
Neither the farmer nor any other man can
afford to keep slow walking horse. A team
that will plow five rounds while another goes
four, and do it all day and every day, is
worth Il much greater premium over the lat
ter than indicated BY this proposition of
work. The horse is machine to perform
work, the walk is the working gait, and any
improvement in this direction is of Just as
much importance as an improvement that
enables machine OF any kinCR TO do more
work. We labor TO invent such improve
ments in machinery; why shouldn't we labor
to bring about the same with our horses
We can do this by training-breeding TO good
horses, who are good even walkers; and de- /
veloping these traits IN the colts. Heavy
horses need not be slow walkers; many are ex
cellent walkers and proportionately more
than slower ones.

The City of ST. Paul in the Greatest

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Jan. 17-According TO
the Health Department this city had a case
Of genuine Asiatic cholera. Last night the

pearance of the corpse. he called DR.. Hoyt,
Chief Of the Health Department, to assist
him IN the examination, and both physicians
are satisfied that II the case Is not absolutely
one OF cholera it stlll bore such a close re-
sembiance TO it that immediate steps must
be taken looking to the public safety, and
they therefore ordered the immediate disin-
fecilon OF the body and of all the baggage

TROUBLE IN EGYPT
A Spirit of independence Shown
by the Khedive.
England Would Not Stand Ii for a
Moment, and Stern Measures
Were Taken.
Special to THE 1IoRNrNe CALL.

CAIRO. Jan. 1.-THE Khedive has changed
his Ministry without having obtained the
consent of the British authorities, who
therefore decline to recognize the new Cab
met. Tie Khedive's action is believed to
be influenced by Russia and France. The
British authorities await insuu :tions from
London.
LONDON. Jan. IA hastily convened
Cabinet council was held this afternoon.
and the unexpected cali for conference
caused a decided sensation. 1t is con-
jectured that action is to be taken in regard
to the sudden spirit of Independence dis
played by the Khedve of Egypt in chang
ing his Ministry without having first OBJ
tanned the consent of the British Govern
ment. The British representative at Cairo
declines tn recognize the new Ministry, and
the khediye refuses 10 make any changes
in it. A long telegram from Cromer. British
representative at Cairo, was received at the
Foreign Office early this afternoon. Soon
afterward the Russian and French En-
bassadors and the German Charge d 'Affares
called upon Lord Rose berry, the Foreign
Minister, and somewhat heated conversa-
ton took place. M Waddington. the French
Embassador. and NJ. Staal, the Russian
Embassador. were subsequently cl0seted
with the Prime Minister for some time.
At 3:15 O'Clock the summons for Cabi-
net council at 5 o'clock was issued. The
council rose at 6: :35 o'clock after resolving
unanimously 10 treat the Khedive with the
utmost firmness. The Ministers decided to
inform him in distinct manner that his
position as ruler Of Egypt depended upon
the good will! IF Great Britain. and that the
British Government would refuse to recog-
niZe the reactionary Ministry he has ap-
pointed. 1t is believed that behind the
Khedive's action there is a concerted Rus
sian, French and Turkish intrigue.
Official information given out this even
ing confirms the above reported action taken
by the Cabinet
The Cairo correspondent of the Daily
News says; Cromer this afternoon had an
audience with the Khediye and pre-
sented an ultmatum demanding the dis
missal OF the new Ministry within twenty
four hours.
The Khedive convened his council and
presided in person AT the Khedve's re-
quest Fakri Pasha resigned.

FURTHER CONFESSIONS.
Charles de Lesseps duplicates Two
More Deputies.

PARIS, Jan 16.-Interest to-day centered
in the confession of Charles de Lesseps TO
NJ Franquevile. He gave the oral history
Of the Panama bribery. duplicating two
more deputies as receivers of regular SUBJ
sides from the Panama Company. II is
alleged that he also gave dates and amounts,
and that summOnses for the men whom he
names will be issued.
Tie courtroom was not thronged when
the trial of Charles de Lesseps and his as
soeates was resumed to-day. Advocate
General Rau opened the case fer the prose-
cutiOn. He said that out OF 800. .000. .00O
francs first obtained. three-ffths had been
illegally disposed of. The capital Of the
company was so laid open to pIunderers
that 700,o00.000 francs were sauandered, be-
sides the sums expended in actually carry
ing out the legitimate objects OF the COM
pany. The speaker proceeded 10 analyze
and criticize the large sums paid out under
the heading of Remuneration" to the diree-
tors OF the company, to tie American COM
mittee. and to other high officials in the
company. Rau declared that the payments
made on commission were outrageou5ly
high. The books of the company had been
kept in an irregular manner, and the ac-
counts manipulated after the conclusion Of
the contracts. NJ. Rau emphasized the
fact that the newspapers OF all shades OF
opinion-editors, directors and managers
had received money, and all sorts of dis.
graceful transactions had been concealed
under the heading of advertising ex-
penses."

TOO MUCH SILVER.
Writing the Doom of the
Sherman Act.
TWO REPORTS To CONGRESS.
The Friends of the White FIetaf
Fought Hard, but Both Committees
Were Against Them.
Special to The MORNING CALL.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 17.-Perhaps the most
important meeting of the Finance COM
mittee of the Senate held during this Con-
gress was that Of this morning, which re-
suited in decision to favoraby report tha
Sherman bill to repeal the purchase Of
silver act. Subsequently Sherman reported
the bill and it was placed on the calendar.
The meeting was largely attended, every
member being present bat Senator Jones
and Senator Vance, who is i'll. While the
majority are in favor of the action taken.
vigorous opposition was manifested by
Harris Of Tennessee aud VOORHEES, of In
diana. Those who voted to report the bill
favorably were Morrill, Sherman. Allison.
Aldrieb. HiscOck, Mcpherson and Carlisle.
Senators Voorhees, and Harris entered
emphatic protests against the pro-
posed action of the committee, and they
would have been joined by Senators Jones
and Vance had they been present. The
meeting is said to have been exciting.
This is probably referring to the speeches
made by Harris and Voorhees,. They wers
outyoted. however. and the discussion will
now be transferred to the floor of the Sem
ate. Senator Mcpherson said the bill is
satisfactory to him, although lie would
rather have had his resolution reported.
One feature he did not approve was that
which postponed the time to the 1St OF
January, 1894 But still he thought IL
afforded relief, for the people would know
that at that time at least the never-ceasing
initiation Of the currency would end and
the country would return 10 a currency
and money not diseased. Teller and
VOORHEES, do not believe the bill can pass,
and Voorhees, is credited with saying not
ten Democratic Senators will vote for it.
In the House to-day Representative Bro
sius of Pennsylvania introduce a bill to
authorize the refunding Of the per cent
bonds, to increase the circulation OF ma
tional banks and to discontinue the pur-
chase of silver bullion. 1t authorizes the
Secretary of the Treasury to issue sums not
exec eding in the aggregate $500, 600, 600 reg
istered bonds. in the denominations of $50
or multples thereof, redeenable In coin Of
the standard value at the pleasure of the
United States after forty years from the
date of issue and bearing interest at the
rate of per cent, Such bonds shall be ex-
empt from taxation. The Secretary shall
dispose OF these bonds by exchanging them
for the per cent bonds now outstanding.
Every National Banking Association that
shall transfer to the treasury bonds author.
lied under this act shall be entitled TO re-
ceiye circulating notes equal in their face
value 10 the par value OF the bonds so de-
posted, and shall in lieu Of the tax assessed
upon circulating national bank notes under
the existing law pay to the Treasurer of the
United States on January of each year
duty of one-Quarter of l per cent upon the
average amount of its notes in circulation
during the previous year. The law provid-
ing for tlIe purchase Of silver bullion is re-
pealed by thus bill.

HIS HANDS CLEAN.
President Carnot Is an
Honest Man.
FACTS NOW OF RECORD.
By the Handwriting of the Men
Who Oppose Him His Honor
Has Been Proved.
FACTS NOW OF RECORD.
Special to THE MORNING CALL

NEW YORK, Jan. 17.-Smalley cables to
the Tribune from Paris: There is slight
embarrassment in the camp of the anti
CarnOt forces. Both OF the latest stories on
which they had relied to dscredit the Presi-
dent have been not merely denied but dis
proved by documents, and these documents
are contemporary with the incidents to which
they relate. 1t is proved that Carnot told
the committee on the Panama loan in 1856
that he should not advocate the bill and
was opposed to the Government guarantee.
His signature 10 Baihuts bin meant simply
that as Minister of Finance he had ne
financial objection to offer TO the measure.
The Wilson, Dreyfus charge that Carnot
was illegally repaid over 10000 francs is
met with even greater precision. Carnots
refusal to remit or refund the tax against
which Wilson clamored was the immediate
cause OF his resignation. Wilson at that
time had influence enough with GTevy TO
get rid OF Minister who resisted his de-
mands. He got rid of Carnot and the tax
was refunded by NJ. Carnots successor. 1t
was Wilson himself who stated these facts
in letter written and published in 1887.
The good faith of La Lanterne may be
judged by its conduct in this matter. Ii
omits TO publish this refutati0n, or to
notice ii, and it continues to harp on the
signature OF Carnot to the Baihut bill.
though the truth on that matter was told by
Figaro itself. The royalist partner in this
business has a sense of decency and fair
play which the radical partner has yet TO
display.
Such embarrassment as the exposure of
these two calumnies has caused their authors
can only be temporary. Their powers of
invention are not yet exhausted. The gift of
subtle suggestion which Maynard possesses
is not exhausted either. He contin ues to
summarize the opinions of a man in the
street l Imagine this man In the street is
at times surprised at being told what his
opin ions are, but he does not protest He
cannot protest. If hs did be would be told
1t was not his opinion which was summar-
lied, but that of sUme other man in some
other street.
The President" says Maynard, "should
do something 10 reassure public opinion, to
regain public confidence. Why not publish
a message? The effect might be consider
able'
1t might. and the first effect would be to
give his enemies d fresh excuse for an attack
on Carnot's strength.
The very newest Royalist scheme is put
forward in tO-dav'S SOleil Its author is none
other than EdOuard Herve himself, who
has long held the ren for the COmte de
Paris. IF Carnot resigns there ought to

bank where he is employed, as usual this

A MERE FARCE.
Railroads to Have Every Privilege
They Ever Had.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-Mr. Patterson Of
Tennessee in the report of the ma jOrity of
the House Commerce Committee on the bill
allowing railroad pooling, says that the
committee is of the ornion that under the
arrangements provided for pooling no harm
will befall the pubic, and an opportunity
will be given intelligently to solve the much
mooted problem.
Lind of Minnesota and Mallory of Florida
represent the minority, and in their report
they feel duly bound TO protest agains; the
pooling section of the bill and tn call atten-
ton TO some of their objections to it. They
say that the bill takes away the only safe
guard we had heretofore against railroad
extortion. The competition of later routes
Is frustrated and many well-laid schemes to
oppress the public are made possible. In
der this bill the annual S1,000.000 bonus to
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company to
refrain from competition may hereafter be
paid in pursuance of law. In conclusion. it
is said to be unfair 10 the Interstate Com
merce Commission to subject 1t to the inn
portuning and pressure this bill will draw
upon them should 1t become law.
