A Batter Keeping Secret.

Among other appurtenances whlcn the honorable William. l. Buchanan takes with him to the Argentine ke- public isa can of butterchurned ID the state of Iowa about two years ago, and it has made a Journey around the world before it passed into his hands. The man who made the butter and put it in the can presented it to MT. Bu- chanan as memento of friendship and d proof Of his confidence in the ludg- ment of the late chief of the agrlcul- tural department as q judge of butter, requesting him to give a picnic on the Fourth of July next and spread that particular butter on his sandwiches. This Iowa friend of MT. Buchanan thinks he has solved the problem that has been yexing all dairymen. which IS is the sealing of butter dramatically m cans or jars SO that 1t will endure 2 voyage through the tropics. You can- not expel the air by putting 1t in the can when it is hot, as they do with fruit. for that ruins the butter: and you cannot get ayacnum when youpui in cold; but this Iowa man thinks he has a successful process. and has been testing 1t on the naval vessels Of tLe United States. The can Buchanan has took cruise around the world In the stewards pantry of man-of-war, and now 1t is going to the antipodes.
 II this gentleman has found satis- factory process he has q fortune in his grasp. for rich people pay sl q pound for good butter down in the tropics, and lt is so expensive that the poor do not eat it at all Most of the butter consumed In Central and South Ani- erica aud th9 West Indies is shipped frome Holland in pound cans, and the Dutchmen have succeeded q great deal better in preparing 1t for that eli

 In the April number of the Forum, Col. .AIdace r. Walker points out the significant extent to which the gov ernment has already got control of many of our most important railroads. '.The railroads of the United States in many respects are helpless crea- lures. Their natural tendency appears to be run down the hlll into the sea. Their competitors on every side are wont to pick md plunder and pollute them. Their only weapon Of retalia- tion or defence k the reduction of their earnings. in tho hope that Il may jniure the others more. They are ire Quently passing from view as business entities: and let Us hope that the United States courts will be able to manage them with universal satisfac- tlnn. Unless the lines that remain are taken ia hand by some wis major and new conditions soon applied, they will presently see their net earnings vanish; anl the iini' d states govern ment will be managing the cunsolida;- ed system of American railroads.

PRINCETON, Ky, Nov. News has
reached here of the lynching of Eddy Mar

Ously estimated at from fifty to 100 men.
The scene of the lynching is a remote part
of the county, and the details of the crime
are hard to get. The best obtainable in
formation is that Martin was called upon
at his home after midnight and asked to
get up and help put out fire that was
raging in the neighborhood. Opening the
door he was seized by dozen or more
men, who asked for Information of Bill
GOOde, the lawlcss pauper commissioner
Of Crittenden county.
He was also asked about the latter's
crimes, and especially that Of horse steal-

hang him, but if he would turn states

SHANGHAI. Nov The announce
ment of the death of the empress of China
has thrown u cloud OF gloom over the en-
tire nation. The report that she took her
own life to escape the cruelties to which
the emperor had subjected hcris generally
believed, and although every effort is be-
ing made by the court officials to keep the
facts from reaching the public there is no
room for doubt that either the empress
committed suicide by taking poison or
else her death was the result OF designs
not of her own making.
One story is that the empress had in
Cured the displeasure of the emperor and
that he slapped her face, whereupon she
took poison. Another story is that the
emperor became enraged and encompassed
the empress death either by the use OF
poison or by strangling. The various sto-
ries are very conflicting save that all agree
that she young wife of the emperor had
little to live for so far as domestic happi-
ness was concerned.

TANNER ARRESTED.
ohicaGo1 Mayor. Feeling Outraged by a

Warrant

Chicago,s Mayor, Feeling Outraged bv n
Statement in Circulpr Swears Ont .
Warrant
CHICAGO. Nov. John r. Tanner, chair
man OF the Republican state central com-
mittee, was arrested yesterday afternoon
at $40 o'clock. Tho warrant for his arrest
was issued by Justice Prindivillc and YVES
served by Constable McInerncy, who found
Tanner ut Republican headquarters, room
l3i, Grand Pacific hotel. Tanner at the
time the warrant was served was
talking TO n few of his leading political
associates, and was not in the least dis
turbca by the proceedings. The informa-
ton on which the warrant was issued was
sworn out by Mayor John P. Hopkins.
and charges Tanner with criminal libel.
Tanner at once started with the officer to
the Justices Office to give bail.
History of the Difficulty.
This was the sequel of an interview Hop
kins had with Tanner twenty four hours
previous IN which he asked Tanner il he
sanctioned and was responsible for
clause in circular issued from Repub-
lican headquarters at this city and signed
by a fac simile of Tanners signature. The
clause that raised the trouble declared that
the Republicans would win the coming
election in spite Of number of things,
among which was the blactlmail levied
by Hopkins upon the vices of the city OF
Chicago This charge had been made by
the Republican press over and over again,
but Hopkins said he had waited until it
WIS made by somebody who was response
BILE.
Had Nothing TO Take Rack.
When Hopkins, in the presence of wit
n.sse-. called Tanners attention 20 thu
clause Tanner said he sanctioned it and
was responsible for its distribution.
Thereupon Hopkins told him he would
prosecute him for criminal libel and that
| the prosecution would not be for political
purposes, but for personal satisfaction and
would be pushed. Tanner made re-
mark which may be interpreted that to
sue and push the suit was Hopkins right
and ''let her push" 1t was expected that
the warrant would be sworn out and
Tanner arrested yesterday morning, but
Hopkins concluded that he would first
try the grand jury.
Graud Jury Not Quick Enough.
But for some reason the grand jury took
no action, although Hopkins went before
it. Assistant States Attorney Knight is
quoted rs saying that he advised both
Hopkins and the jury that it was not an
opportune time to take mp such a matter
When seen by u reporter Hopkins is re
ported thus: THE question is purely n lie
gal one. Mr.. Tanner admits the author
ship of the circular, and if l am unable to
reach him through the grand jury / will
do so through the court of record. There
| is nothing more to bs said, but you car
safely say that l will nail Mr.. Tanner il
there is any law under which it is possible
so to do"
So. the grand jury having failed to act
| the warrant was sworn out and served
| OF course Tanner had no trouble in giving
| bail. He does not talk much, and says h,
| is too busy with preparations for the bat
tie of ballots next Tuesday to give an,
time TO the mayors charge.
