Chauncey M. Depew once said:
Fifty men in these United States have
1t in their power by reason of the wealth
which they control, to come together
within twentyfour hours and arrive at
an understanding by which every wheel
of trade and commerce may be stopped
from revolving, every avenue of trade
blocked, and every electric key struck
dumb Those fifty men can paralyze
the whole country, for they can control
the circulation of the currency, and Gre
ate panic whenever they will" But
Chauncey, being a Republican, did not
think it worth while to add that the
Republican policy of Capitalization and
class protection gave these fifty men
! their wonderful power Before the
advent of the Republican party, no
number, short of majority, could con-

THE FLANDERS GALLEYs.

Commencing on a comparatively
small scale, the growth of the Flanders
igalleys was steadily progressive. They
were, in fact. the true pioneers of the
great mercantile navies of the present
day. All that reached England from
India was brought to her shores by
these vessels, together with the fash
ions of proud Italy then the centre
of taste and luxury. At home, the
amenities of life were still almost I'M
known. The dress of the people was
as simple as their manners were print

in his 'Crudities," records how much

terest at per cent. The low denom-
nation is to enable persons of limited
means to invest. Applications are al
ready numerous, although the time
flxed for their reception is September
10. Many foreign subscriptions are ex-
pected.
The only loss to the japanese thus
lar, apart from caSulties in battle. is
that of the merchant ship Tenkyui. a
salililg vessel. She carried cargo for
the chinese government from Yezo to
Iaku, and during here voyage war was
oeciared On arriving in ignorance of
the situation, she was seized and her
cargo confiscated. The Japanese COM

rule OF European international law
which forbids capture under similar
circumstances.

tween the Nicaraguans, who are in
possession of the Government, aud
the Americana, who are the dom
mating commercial, financial and
political elements in the country.
An attempt had been made by the
Secretary of Foreign Affairs of
Nicaragua, Jose Matrez, who was
sent 10 BIuefelds for the purpose
of settling the complications there,
to organize provisional govern
ment, but his efforts were opposed
by the Americans, who refused to
take part in the movement, and up
pealed 20 the United States to pro-
tcct their interests and guarantee
their safety. Matrez, after the
refusal of the Americana to Join
in the movement, held conference
with the British Consul, at which
an agreement was reached. This
provided for council for the Gov
eminent of Mesquite, to consist of
seven members, of whom two
were to be Americans, appointed
by the American Consul, two Mica
raguans, one Engliellman, one Mos
quito Indian and orc Creole.
This council was to have contro!
of local affairs, under the presiden
cy of g commission, appointed BY.
the Governor of Nicaragua, the
latter having a right of veto. 1t
was also provided that English was
to be the Official language of the
reservation, instead of Spanish,
which wss substituted for it by
Commissioners Locayo last month.
These terms were accepted unani
muusly by a mass meeting of
American citizens on the ground
that it would place the Govern
ment entirely under the control of
the Nicaraguan Commissioner.
Resolutions were adopted appeal
ing to the United States, and de
nouncing as a renegade any Amer
ican who accepted office under the
provisional Government. The stu
alton was further aggravated by
the murder at Rama { f an Aufef
lean by the name of Flynn by
Aquella, the Njcaraguan Governor,
and by the levying of an export
tax on fruit, the principal product
of the country. This tax and the
unsettled condition of the Govern
mPnt have had a most depressing
effect on commerce. A number Of
American merchants domiciled in
Bluetields announce their intention
of leaving if there is further trou
Bile there.
No news has yet been received
of the United States man of War
San Francisco, which is expected
at Bluefelds TO protect American
interests and residents there, who,.
it is claimed, are grAvely threaten

"WHAT DOES HILL MEAN?'
He Proposes to Antagonize Tariff
Reduction and Income Tax
Doctrines.

w Washington, ID. o., Feb. TO-
The story at the Capitol today is
to the effect that the speech OF
Senator Hill yesterday was inspired
by a deep knowledge of the polll-
ical situation. M. Hill has never
been accused of acting at random
in political advantages is always
looked upon rs acute. In view OF
these facte the interesting question
being talked of today is. "What
does Snator Hill mean and what
does he propose to do by antagoniz
ing the tariff reform and income
tsx doctrines held by large major
ity of his party2"
Congressman Mcdowell of Penn
sylvanis, strong protection Re-
publican, commented on this mat
ter today as follows: at seems to
me that the speech will unquestion

port of the Democracy of New
York State aud call to his banner
in that section of the country a
larger contingent Of voters than
any other man. 1t will give him
Connecticut and the support of the
Democracy of New Endland."
This is the keynote of the situa-
ton in the opinion of many Dem
ocrats and Republicans who are
considering the situation. They
argue that Mr.. Hill evidently

there will be rebound of public
sentiment that will furce them to

who has no tinge of free trade and
wants no income tax. 1t is gen
orally believed that the Senator
that New York and the
North will hold the balance OF
power in the nominating con
venion, notwithstanding the nu-
merical strength OF the West and
South. Making himself solid with
New York interests, they say, will
carry him to the convention as the
only man acceptable TO that section,

THE STANDED ARMY.
West of Utah and the S. P. Com :
pany Obdurate-Kelly's
Army Fed.

Ogden, Utah, April 10 Govern
nor Waite wired General Kelly to-
day at Ogden that his industrial
army could stop and pass through
Colorado, but GovernoE West of
Utah notified Kelly the his men
would be forced to return if they
refused to 90 of their own motion.
Kelly submitted the matter to his
men, who refused with but one dis
senting vote. Kclly's men said
they knew what it would be to
tramp through the mountains and
suffer hardships if they could not
ride. They chsered Governor
Waite and General Kelly, who APP
peared naturally conservative and
is a good speaker.
Encouraging words were receiy-
ed from Kelly's wife. Two thou
sand loaves of bread, 1000 pounds
of beef, potatoes, ETC., were contri-
buted by the Og,len charity society,
and everybody waited to see what
Governor West would do. The
governor and Superintendent
Knapp OF the Southern Pacific had
a series of interviews, ending in
KnapP's refusing to haul the army
back without payment of $50 fol
each person, the regular fare.
Knapp said if he attempted to force
the men back into box cars they
would destroy railroad property,
but West said he would attend to
that. Knapp then sought insp;ra-
ton from General Superintendent
Fillmore at San Francisco and was
told that the road would see what
could be done. Mayor Brough of
Ogden has ordered a carload of pro
visions, enough to last the army to
the Nevada border.
A number of the men are sick
and suffering and one man died.
The later was identified by United
States Marshal Bragliam as a recent
Iy discharged convict. Councils of
war were held at the city hall in
the afternoon and Territorial off =
cials seem to hesitate to enforce the
conrts order. At last accounts the
army was destined to remain all
night in Ogden, as the Southern
Pacific people aver that they can
no. find officials to haul the train
west, but it is believed their com
pany is doing all it can to defeat
Governor West. The men are pro
posing to seize a Union Pacific
train and go East anyhow. Sever
al attempted to escape from camp,
but were corralled by the military
and jailed.

The Ellis Case.

The case OF the people against Attorney
General Ellis ON charge of forgery was
called before Judge Person at Mason on
Monday. A jury was secured Tuesday and
the trial has proceeded since, every point
heing stubOornly contested. The most SCI
w. ). IL. Wood, clerk OF the Statc board of
Auditors in 1891.
His testimony in substance was that Ellis
came 10 his Utlice and called him ont; told
BIN he had better send his assistants Fl, m
the room as there was to be meeting
the canvaS,ing board. lie complied, wht n
Ellis and Eank a Potter came in. and the
Corner Informed him that he was the legal
cl,lk Of the board OF canvassers, which Pot
ter confirmed. He declined to accept tie
statement, however, without statement
from Secretary of State Soper. Soper was
sent for and gave the necessary instruction, S
to that effect. Ellis then said it was maE-
ifest there Was an error in the returns Fl, m
G0gebic, and it was too late to send ty
mail for a correction and too expensive 10
send messenger.
Ellis said it would be the proper thing for
him to change the wording at the bottom Of
the return to conform to the figures above,
which were then 1887. Acting under adj
vice from the attorney general, he changed
the word 'three" to 'thirteen," making the
written portion read thirteen hundrt
eighty-seven" instead of 'three hundred
eighty-seven," as made by the comfy clerk.
That week later Ellis brought on the re-
turns made to the treasurer and he also
changed these to conform. The evidence
created profound sensation in the court
room and had its effect stamped upon the
defense. 1t was conceded to be very dam
aging. but the defense claim they will e
able to wholly impeach the witness.
This afternoon Witness Wood was cross
examined by the defense, conducted by
Associate Counsel T. +. Barkworth, but no
utterly failed to shake his testimony in any
particular, in fact it was strengthened.
