New York, Oct. "a dispatch from
London says:
England is likely to be in the throes
of pretty bad war scare within the
next few days, unless undoubted facts
lprove unprecedently defective. The
facts are that the ministers had de-
lcided that there was no occasion for
them to meet at the council board be-
fore the end of the first week of No
vember, when it is customary to hold
a cabinet council and decide what an
lnouncement of policy shall be made
at the lord mayors banquet Lord
Kimberly, foreign secretary, has been
in London occasionally since then and
has been much worried with. work, but
the other ministers have been scat
tered all over England and the CONT
nent of Europe on a long desired holi-
day Sir William Harcourt came to
London yesterday morning, found
everything quiet and departed on the

his departure urgent dispatches reach

graphed on to Lord Kimberly. Later

Strange to say, the addresses of sever

London and Balmoral
There is no reasonable doubt that
another and very serious hitch has oc-
Cured in the diplomatic negotiations
with France relative to Egypt and
West and Centred Africa. Possibly
fresh trouble has arisen in connection
with Madagascar.
The current talk in official circles to-
night is of sensational developments
in the French-Russian policy in the
east, but this appears to be coniec-
tural rather than solidly based.
It is most probable that France. en-
couraged by the recent apparent
weakness of the British foreign office
has suddenly sprung demand upon
the government, which has staggered
even Kimberly, and which, if persisted
in, will bring about a crisis. which
may result in war, because Rosebery
and his colleagues have almost reach

a Body Found BY Mcxicans Below

San Diego, Cal, Oct. 3.-Jose Garcia,
a peddler, who has just returned from
the Cocopah country, with Quirino Co
silio, a half-breed, and Frank Gotta, a
Mexican, tells Of the finding on the
desert, below the national boundary, of
the body of an American who had died

Angulo was insane from thirst, but all
recovered. But on the return trip the
trail of another wanderer was discov-

party to believe that he had fallen a
victim to the desert, as the lowering
vultures and coyotes bowling I'D the
canyon among the hills afforded good
ground for the suspicion.
Much suffering is reported on the

A source of Contention.

Washington, Oct 3.-The Madagascar
issue has been an endless source of con-
tention to the United States ever since
the protectorate over Madagascar in 1885,
The first American consul after that
was Mr. Campbell, who was in centre
of contention between the native govern
ment and the French consul general rep
resenting the protectorate. He was sue
ceeded by d colored man of Nebraska
Mr.. Walker, whose sympathies appeared
to have been with the native government
although the state department here wish
ed him to accede to the French claims
and take his exequator from the French
consul-general. The American consul
could not be located, however until he
had treated with the Hovas government,
when ii was too late to recognize the
French claim. The present United States
consul is an ex-governor OF Alabama
He was appointed a year ago, but up to
the present time his consular Office has
not been recognized, owing to the conflict
between the Hovas and the French gov
ernments. 1t has brought about endless
correspondence between the French gov
eminent and the state department. The
present move of France is taken to in
6icate that she is, too, tired of the tenn
porizng and intends to force her con-
tention to a final settlement.
Private advices received here are to the
effect that the closing of the Madagas-
car ports will be followed by the landing
of 1000 French soldiers in Madagascar.

Billy and His Boom.

Hutchinson, Kan, Oct. 3.-After speak
ing to large crowd that gathered at
Peabody, Strong City and Newton, Gov
ernor Mckinley arrived here at o'clock.
Hon. E. N. MorrelI, Republican candidate
for governor, Joined the party at Topeka
and at several places introduced McKIn-
ley. Major MorrelI is native of Maine,
and handed to Thomas B. Reed his first
certificate emitting him TO teach school.
but at Strong City he took occasion to
announce Governor Mckinley as the man
to be given the presidential nomination
place, the governor gave utterance to
some significant words. He said:
II see before me many old soldiers,
members of the G. A. r. / am glad to
welcome them here today. We are not
only in favor of prosperity, but the Re-
publican party is in favor of patriotism
What we want here is a little more pat
riotism and a little less anarchy. We
want to remember that the freedom to
make laws does not give the freedom to
break them. Williams, one of the sign
has said: Our blood can better be spar
ed than our principles and a great New
York merchant SAID, Our goods are for
sale, but not our principles. What we
want is a revival of patriotism in the
United States and protection is a part
of patriotism, for protection stands for
our country and our flag"
Here at Hutchinson, Governor McKin-
ley was given the greatest popular ova-
ton he has yet had. Thousands followed
him from the depot to the place of
speaking, yelling frantically, and climb
ing into his carriage and demanding a
grasp of his hand. Oklahoma, Nebraska,
and even Texas have contributed to the
enormous crowd whose number is vari-
ously estimated at from 10000 to 10000.
One railroad alone brought in fifty car
loads of people.
Governor Mckinley made two speeches
here, one Immediately on his arrival and
q second one in the evening.
A special train on the Chicago, Rock
Island & Pacific railroad took him to-
night to Lincoln, Neb.

Tucson, Ariz, Oct. S.-As far as could
be learned, at a late hour this evening,

GRAVELY DISCUSS.
Newspapers Relieve There VIII BE-
Trouble With France.

London, Oct. 3.-All the afternoon pa
pers gravely discuss the hasty sum-
mornings of the cabinet council. 1t is
generally accepted as being connected
with some serious difficulty with
France.
The Liberal organ, the Westminster
Gazette, handles the subject tenderly,
evidently anxious not to excite
public opinion and thereby embarra SIS
the government. On the other hand.
the Conservative mouthpieces discuss
the matter more fearlessly and warn
France against encroaching upon
British rights.
The Pail Mall Gazette says: "The
Icrisis, which necessitates the conven-
ing of the cabinet council, must be
very sudden, as the ministers were dis
persed on their holidays 1t is quite
possible, however, that propositions
have been made to settle the various
differences" The Pail Mall Gazette
refers to an article printed today in
the Politique Coloniale, of Paris, which
reflects the views of Minister of Colo
mics NJ. Delicasse, and which gives, ex-
elusive Of the questions of Egypt and
Madagascar, list of eleven outstand-
ing difficulties between France and
England, connected with the frontier.
and similar disputes in the American
colonies. The Politique Coloniale.
however, says that many of these have
practically been settled and none of
them would justify rupture, unless one
country was bent upon picking quar-
rel with the other, which the paper
adds, is not the case. The Pail Mall
Gazette, in spite of this, says the arti-
Gle in the Politique Conoliale is friend

We do not wish to quarrel with
France, but, on the other hand. we are
indisposed to permit trespa ssing upon
our unquestioned rights. The bullying
spirit which tells the Frenchman that
they have only to brag and bluff
enough to force England to surrender.
may easily lead to that belief" The
Pail Mall Gazette then continues: THE
Daily Chronicle says war between
France and England must be regarded
as inconceivable madness. 1t may be
madness, but it is not uncomfortable.
France must be told courteously, but
firmly, that we have not the slightest
desire to attack or provoke her, but
if attacked, we shall defend ourselves
to the last extremity"
The Globe also expresses the belief
that the hurried calling of the cabinet
council is due to the disputes with
France, adding I'VE believe there is no
ground for public alarm or SUSPICION.
But we cannot surrender any part OF
England's rights or shirl1 any part Of
her duties. Our strained rela tions

present at length. On his right was
General Howard and on his left General

which were of congratulatory charac-
ter, General Howard addressed the meet

Kansas City, Mo-, Oct. s.-The state
federation today adopted resolutions Sc
verely condemning the American Protec-
tive association, and calling on all true
union men to wage war upon religious
intolerance from whatever source it may
spring." There was a spirited discussion
over the adoption of the Chicago Fedora
ton of Labor platform, which Delegate
Duffy said was equivalent to adopting
the Jackson county Populist platform,
which he objected to on the ground that
the A. P. A controlled the convention
that formed 1t. The platform was finally
adopted, however.
