PROTECTION OF SEALS.
All Maritime Powers Asked to JON II
an Agreement.

All Maritime Powers Asked to JON III
an Agreement
WASHINGTON, August 25.-The State
Department has initiated the next phase
of the sealing question by addressing
similar notes to all maritime powers IN
viting them to agree to an agreement
reached by the United States and 1reat
Britain relative to the protection oil seal
fisheries. This was made necessary by
the award of the Paris arbitration, when
fonnd the United States have no exclu-
sive Jurisdiction over the seal waters
and that these could be protected only
by mutual agreement. By the terms OF
the treaty submitting her case to arDl-
tration Great Britain was bouna 10
agree to the arrangement as 10 closeu
seasons and closed seas imposed by the
arbitration tribunal. This, OF course,
could have no effect upon other nations,
and ships sailing under the flags OF Ger
many. France, Russia, Sweden or even
Hawaii we're lett by the award Tree 10
prev upon the seals anywhere outside
The three-mile limit from Alaskan shores
and islands. To meet this the tribunal
recommended that an effort be made to
secure the adhesion OF other powers ia
the same arrangements that bound Great
Britain and the United States. There
we're indications that certain enterprls'
ing merchants were making ready tc
conduct raid on seals under other flags
than our own and Great Britain's, prob
ably the Hawaiian and German flags
and it was felt to be the only prudent
course to avoid any disagreeable in
cidents in the future by securing the ad
hesion of the maritime nations to tht

LONDON, August 20.-Advices received
from the Congo State show that further
troubles have occurred with the natives,
arising from the impressments OF Portu.
guese-Congo natives into military service
by Congo State officials. The natives
were highly incensed at the summary
manner in which their relatives and
friends had been dragged into service
that was repugnant TO them, and de-
termined to avenge their wrongs. A
strong native force gathered, and an at
tack was made upon Loba, Congo
State post. In the fighting that ensued
two soldiers defending the post were
Killed and three taken prisoners.

The Dude and the Tramp Product of
Our Civilization.

Inc Duue ana the Tramp Product of
Our Civilization.
BALTIMORE, August 25.-Grand Master
Workman Sovereign addressed large
meeting of workingmen last night, in
the course Of which he said:
I" In America to-day there are 1000 900
men willing to work who are idle for
want OF work to do, molding themselves
or rather being nodded into fe.ons and
lbeggars. Charity has been strained as
1t was never strained before, but still the
cry for bread from starving throats is
heard all over the land. These men are
being turned into tramps. The tramp
has been described as a cross between
poverty and crime, but | think the dude,
a product OF our civilization, can Justly
be described as a cross between nobody
and nothing. Both are the results. the
outcome, OF monopoly-the monopoly
that, unless it is throttled, will cause the
death OF the Republic"

COLORADO SPRINGS, August 2l.-The
Tarsney outrage case ended in farce in
Justice McCoache's court this afternoon.
District Attorney Cochran appeared be-
fore the court, and asked that the cases
against the defendants be dismissed
The District Attorney stated that he
made this motion for the reason that the
evidence had been received by the grand
Jury, who had failed TO find true bills
against any of the defendants. The
court granted the motion. Not one OF
the persons from Denver who had been
interesting themselves in the prosecu-
ton was present. The people here are
disgusted with the affair.

HOPS IN EUROPE.
Germany VIII Not Require Any From

WASHINGTON, August 24.-The Ameri-
can Consul at Hamburg, Germany, re-
ports to the State Department that the
hop harvest, which is but few weeks
off, will equal the yield of the most
favorable years in the past, and in conse-
quence American hops, which have been
extensively used in Germany during the
last year owing to the small local yield,
will find few, il any, buyers in the Ger
man market. Reports from England are
of similar tenor, and it is thought likely
that Europe will raise more hops this
year than will be required for home con-
sumption,

Trade Prospects.

New YORK, August 20.-R. G. Dun & Co. S
Weekly Review of Trade says:
The new tariff bill, if signed by the presi
Gent as expected, provides definite basis
for business. No supplemental legislation
is thought possible until next year at least.
Large improvement has been expected from
any kind of settlement, the more because of a
vast amount of business deferred from week
to week in the hope of more definite condi-
tions. The rush of such business, or even
a part of it, might easily have doubled
transactions for a time. 1t is not to be
overlooked that the effect of new duties
upon many branches of industry and trade
is probiematical and may be determined
only after some months of experience, and
meanwhile the serious injury to corn and
some conditions exercise a restraining in
fluence.
Resumption by iron and steel works which
are stopped by the strikes, continues to de-
press prices of some finished products. but
with more furnaces operating prices of pig
iron are not lower. Comparisons given
Ihow fall in prices ranging from 20 to Al
per cent in iron and its products since Octo-
Der, 1890, which sufficiently accounts for the
idleness of more than third of the works.
Liabilities of firms failing in the week
ending August are little larger than of
late. So, ,294,689. of which 81 ,041, ,491 were of
manufacturing and $I.609, 1913 of trading

From reports received August 16 at the
Santa Fe general telegraph offices at Topeka
it is learned that there we're numerous rains
in portions of the state Wednesday night.
There was a heavy ra in along the line oil
the Howard Branch railway from Howard
to Hamilton. This includes Eureka Severy
and other points.
There was a rain from Nickerson to Dodge
City, along the main line of the road. Tha;
country has been very dry. There was alsI
a light rain over the extension from Strong
City to Superior, Neb. The southern Kan
sas division was visited by good rain, ex-
tending from Chanute to Wellington. There
is reported a fair rain from Arkansas City
to Pouca, /. /. There was light rain from
Emporia to Nickerson. The reports received
from places in the western part of the state,
also in the central western portion, said
very cloudy and good prospects for rain y
Camp Reno, at Hutchinson, was soaked.
Where had been fathomless dust small ponds
formed in a short time. The annual G. A..

Happily the tents were all in good condi-
tion and of sufficient capacity to shelter the
crowd. 1t was the big day of the reunion
and there were acres of vehicles in the grove
and the camp fairly swarned. The mud
prevented the grand parade which was on
the bills for that day.

KANSAS RAILRoADING.

Council Grove is counting on having
fine new NJ, K. & T. depot soon.
Four boys were wanted as appren-
tices at the Central Branch shops at
Atchison lately, and there we're 40 appli-
cants for the places.
The Santa Fe has been chosen as the
official route to be used by the Grand
Army of the Republic of Kansas to the
national encampment at Plttsburg.
Topeka Capital: Notwithstanding the
seeming unusually hot weather there
has not been single case of sunstroke
reported this season at the Santa Fe dis
pensary.
The Santa Fe system is the biggest
in the world, having some 9,344 miles Oh
railroad 1t has capitalization of BAG
millions dollars. No other railway has
half as much. The Santa Fe was com
paratively a small system in 1885, hav-
ing only 1896 miles.
Fred Close says that he has received
word from the London agent of the pro-
posed North & South road, that he has
disposed of bonds amounting to $2,000,-

pletion of the road, as sixty-five miles OF
it is already graded and bridged.
Topeka Journal: In the car depart
ment of the Santa Fe shops, way-car
fell from it's elevation and broke one of
the large fiat stones that constitute the
floor The workmen were surprised to
! find that the stone covered a well that
nobody seen to know anything about.
There is several feet of water in it.
Argentine item: Many inquiries have
been made lately as to the number of
railroad men who struck at this place;
also the number that have gone back to
work or sought work at other places.
The following information is given by
the secretary of the American Railway
union: 1.-THE total number who went
! out at first was something over 400, and
of these not over fifteen have returned
to work on the Santa Fe, and about the
same number have left town to seek en-
ployment at other places, and some
have gone to work in the smelter."

Our Trade with the Ce1estials.

WASHINGTON, D. c., August 21.-Members
of the senate committee on foreign relations
express the belief that the new treaty with
China, just approved by the senate, will
prove most beneficial to our commercial in
terests.
Chinese immigration is now made unlaw-
full by both countries Owing to this and
other disputes, other countries have dstanced
US in the race for China's trade, which they
considered valuable e-S1ngh to fight for, as
shown by the action of England and France.
China uses silver in trade, but produces
little of it. This should give our silver
mines market and go far to make bi-met-
allism practical BILE. In 1892 Chna's imports
were S135, 100000 and her exports S102, ,O0O,-
0C0. Great Britain furnished S110.0O0,O0O of
the imports and took $50 100000 of the ex-
ports. giving a balance on her favor of $780,
100000. The United States share of the
imports was but $6,O0O,O0O, and she took
$10,000,000 of exports. Now our access to
the twenty-three ports is as free as that of
any other nation
