The Concatenated Order of Hoo
Hoos, in solemn conclave assem-
bled, managed to turn the booming
Texas city, ofDallas upside down,
last week. The order was ably as
sisted in this laudable undertaking
by Messrs. 7. L. L. Temple, ]. c.
Fontaine, E. F. Kane, c. W. Good
lander, ]. W. zimmerman and Capt.
Geo. W. Fouke, all prominent Hoo
Hoos, and extensive lumber and
mill men of this city.
Rev. o. P. Thomas, an able and
earnest Texas minister, of the
Methodist faith, occupied the pull
pit at the State Line NJ. E. church
South, in this city yesterday. His
sermon was both interesting and in
structive, possessing the dual quail
ty of force and logic. Before TAX
ing his departure from our city to-
day, Brother Thomas honored our
Office with pleasant call, in COM
pany with Revs. Moore and Fowler
of this city.
Up to date we have heard of no
casualties from the threatened cy-
clone at this place. Indeed, it even
seems that our Shreveport friends
have escaped also, as no report has
been received of any deaths at that
place from "cyclonic" effects 1t
would appear that Prof. (?) Fow-
ler's threat was not strong enough
to kill cat, We would suggest
that he peruse more carefully the
columns of the ARIZONA Kicker"
and be cured of his propensity to
monkey with the weather or
earn greatness as a weather pro-
phet."

Admiral Benham Trying to Mediate
Between Them.
BUENos AYREs, Jan. 27.-Advices from
the Associated Press correspondent at
Rio de Janeiro announce that in all
probability Resr-Admiral Benham, in
command of the United States war YES
sells there, has, after communicating
with the home government, succeeded
in arranging peace between the govern
ment and the insurgents, and that the
rebellion is likely to end soon.
It is reported that at the close of the
interview between De Cana and Adj
miral Ben ham, the latter gave the as
surance that he would ask from Wash
ington the necessary authority to act
as mediator. Benham communicated DE
Gsma's request to Peixoto, who expressed
his Willingness to promote efforts to-
ward peace. Benham is said to have
received from Washington authority to
act as mediator, and 30 notified Cana
and Peixoto accordingly. Peixoto sent
Ills secretary on board the United
States flagship, where he met
CANA, and the situation was
discussed in the presence OF Ben
ham. The result of the conference is
not known. but it is believed the ex-
changes will lead to the restoration of
peace. CANA is said to have made pro-
posals favorable to the insurgents, and
the secretary said he did not believe
Peixoto would be able to accept them.
1t is believed Benham will be able
to obtain concessions which will re-
suit in an early settlement. Benham
has cabled the substance of the confer
ence to Washington and awaits addi-
tional advices.
Later-It is rumored here that ship
from New York loaded with ammunition
for Peixoto has been wrecked. The ne
gotiations for peace between the insur-
geants and the government have failed,
and hostilitien at Rio have been re-
newed.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The informs-
ton in an Associated Press cable that
Admiral Benham of the United States
navy had acted az mediator between the
Brazilian government and the insur-
gents cannot be officially confirmed
here, no advices on the subject having
been received.

he fell into a crowd OF 5000 people on the
New York shore, who gave him rousing
cheers. He was taken in charge by a
committee of prominent sports and hur-
ried away.

Exposition Relics.

A curious illustration of woman's
tendency to lose things is furnished by
the collection in the lost and found bu-
reau of the Columbian exposition. There
remain in it 600 women's wraps, 520
gloves, 20 wells, a score of portmanteaux
and handbags, to say nothing of 800 nm
brellas, good share of which were left
by women, and 200 pairs of spectacles,
most of which no doubt belonged to wo-
men. They lose things when away from
home because they are more likely than
men to be carried away by new scenes
and to forget everything except what in
terests them for the moment. -Pittsburg

Sensational Disclosures by the Kansas

Sensational Disclosures by the Kansas
City Grand Jury.
KANSAS CITY, Jan. 27.-The grand
jury here has been investigating de-
liberate scheme to defraud the National
Bank OF Commerce out of $50, 900, and
it is known that two indictments have
been returned. The fraud, which has
caught banks in several commercial
centers OF the United States, was
brought to light by its Kansas City
ramifcstions. Its extent, SO far as
ascertained. is between $l50,000 and
100000, with all the details not yet
ascertained.
The persons against whom indict-
ments were found are ]. H. Bemis and
one of his sons, both of the lumber firm
of J.. II. Bemis & Co.. Jefferson, Tex.
The Jefferson City firm would draw
drafts on other business concerns which
Bemis controlled, but which it was not
known he controlled. In other words,
Bemis and his con would draw drafts on
themselves, due principally in 80, go
and 80 days, respectively. The firm on
which the draft was drawn would &C
cept it. The draft was drawn 30 IS to
make the amount in odd dollars and
cents for the purpose of giving it the APP
pearance of a draft drawn for the sale
or purchase of lumber, in the ordinary
course of business, and not for an &C.
commodation draft. These drafts were
issued several months ago when the
firms had good credit, but were really
in failing circumstances. The next step
was to 60 to banks and, under false rep
reservations, get the drafts cashed.
About the time the drafts became due
the firms failed. The fact that the
drafts were time drafts, and not sight
drafts, prevented attaching bills of lad
ing to the drafts, as is usually done in
sight drafts.
Among the banks which got some OF
this bad paper were those in Dallas,
Galveston and Houston, Texas; Mem
phis, Tenn. Chicago, Atchison, Kan.
st. Louis, Omaha and some in Connecti-
cut, by rediscounting western banks
paper. It is also stated some found its
way to Boston.
At a late hour this evening the attor-
ney for the Bank of Commerce stated the
frauds committed by Bemis and Howell
will reach $450,000. 1t is now known
that several other bsgks in this city, in
Guiding the First National, were caught,
but to what extent is not known.
