keeps hogs and milch cows.
Any good compost is proper to apply to

partment OF Agriculture.
Green manuring, or plowing under
green crops raised for that purpose, is
one of the Oldest means of improving the
fertility of the soil. IL was advocated by
Roman writers more than 1000 years ago,
and from that time until now il has
formed a most important resource Of the
farmer, especially where the supply OF
barnyard manure is insufficient Its ad-
vantages are many. The more striking
are that it furnishes the surface soil with
a supply of the fertilbing materials
needed by crops, increases the humus,
and improves the physical qualities and
the tilth Of the soil. As former
green manuring stands next 70 barnyard
manure.
By means Of green manuring, land
which Is practically barren may be
brought up 10 a state Of fertility where IL

BY The Associated Press.

New ORLEANS, Sept pi.-Steamer John
Wilson brought the following letter from
Bluefelds under date Of Sept. 10; Nicar-
aguans have elected Americans TO Office
without taking the trouble TO consult the
gentlemen nominated. Two of those
named refused TO serve.
Madriz was equal to the emergency and
announced that any successful candidate
who refused TO serve when elected 20 office
would be fned $50 n day throughout the
entire term of Office. Eugene Landrio
and DIR. Paul Austerhouse, the Americans
who rejected the honor, appealed to Cap
tain O'Neill for protection, and induced
him TO make Minister Madriz withdraw
his decree
Sept. 10 the English cruiser Mohawk ar
rived. Captain O'Neill was notified of the
presence on board OF the two American
exiles, Sim hampton OF New Orleans and
Captain w. X. Willbanks OF Philadel-
phia Mr. hampton, one of the banished
Bluefelds residents, gives an account OF
the brutal manner in which they were
treated by their oaptors.
While they were prisoners at Blueflclds
they were quartered in small building
behind the custom house. During the
forenoon of Aug. IS several soldiers were
seen to lash
Two Ons-Pound Cans Of Gunpowder
together and fit out fuse. This deadly
instrument was then taken TO the build
ing where the prisoners were quartered
and placed In the center OF the room. A
soldier was stationed by the powder with
instructions to set fire to the fuse when
fight began.
Ono of the officers told Hampton TO
watch close, and at the first sign OF fight
TO run for his life. 1t would be better 10
stand the chance OF escaping bad marks
manship than being blown to atoms
When they boarded the Yulu the evening
of Aug. 10, the powder was carried along
and placed near where the prisoners were
stationed. Again they were taken to the
old Spanish town of San Juan del Norte.
The powder enjoyed prominent position
In the hotel and even on the river.

TIE-UP is COMPLETE.
Not Clothing Contractor in Boston
Can Get Men 10 Work.

BosToS. Sept. 81. - The ready made
clothing industry Of this city is completely
paralyzed by the strike Of the operatives,
and it is safe to say that not single con-
tractor within a radius OF FIVE miles of
this city can obtain "a single operator. A
committee from the United Garment
Workers union commenced the war by
calling ont every operator, pressman and
baster employed i'm 250 shops here, and by
noon yesterday fully 1000 were on strike,
and at the close of the day fully $500 cloth
ing workers were out.
IL was expected that there would be
some difficulty in getting foreign elements
OF the craft 20 join In the strike, but to
the surprise OF the committee these peo-
pie We're among the first TO quit when re-
qucsted TO do so. So complete was the
strike that 1t surprised the contractors
and manufacturers, who thought that
there would be several in each est N.

APPEAL FOR AID.
spinners Want Aid From the
Federation of Labor.
Garment Workers Strike ParaIy,ed
Shops in Boston and Vicinity.

BosToN, Sept. 2i The position Of the
men on strike at Fall River and New Bed
ford now assumes = stronger aspect, since
the prospects are t'sst the powerful Amer
lean Federation Of Labor, comprising 7oo,-
600 mon. will take a hand in tho fight. AT
the mule splnners' convention yesterday
afternoon a. was decided 20 send a delega-
ton 20 samuel Gompers, president Of the
American Federation Of Labor, asking for
assistance from that body.
Ex-senator Howard and Secretary Ross
were appointed as the delegation TO pro
coed on this mission at once. They tele-
graphed 90 Mr. Gompers after the meet
ing asking for an arrangement as TO the
Interview.
III the spinners are successful I'm this di-
rection--and IL Is confidently expected
that they win be-the enormous moral
and financial support OF the Federation OF
Labor will have TO be reckoned with by
the manufacturers, who, It Is thought, re-
gard the situation even now as
A Very Serious One.
Ex-senator Howard, who was for four
years treasurer OF the national union,
says that he has every hope that the
federation will respond heartily to the
appeal OF the mule spinners. This con-
fidence is shared by other prominent spin
ners.
Other decisive action has been taken, 10
having been resolved to assess the mem
bers 90 cents week, TO be devoted TO the
support OF the men who are on strike. IL
at the end of three weeks the strike still
continues, the assessment will be increased
20 81 a week. 1t was also decided TO send
delegates 70 New York for the purpose of
soliciting subscriptions for the
Carrying on OF the Struggle.
Mr. Howard thought, from what he had
observed in Oldham, Eng, recently, that
the textile workers of that place might be
counted an to furnish assistance IL it were
asked for.
IL was found that there IL at present
about sec, 900 IN the hands of the local
treasurers, and at the rate of 90 cents a
week the levy on the members will
amount to about $1,000 week
The purpose Of the national union is TO
put the money thus collected into the ma
tienl treasury. and allow the local unions |
where strikes arc now In progress TO use |
up thefunds which they have on hand on |
their own account.
