to the bill of complaint of FL. Rider Hag-
gard, the novelist, and the publishing
firm of Longmans, Green & Co. of New
York against the Waverly Co. of New
York for alleged infringement of thecopy-
right of Haggard's novel "Nada the Lily"
This is the first case arising under the
new international copyright law passed
in 1890, and involves the constitutional
ity of the act. Joseph A. Arnold of New
York, counsel for the defendant. urged
that the right of the President to declare
copyright treaties with the various
foreign countries under the copyright
law delegation of legislative and judic-
ial power, in violation of the constitu-
ton. If this view is sustained it will
render invalid every copyright granted
to foreigners since the new law went in
to effect.

THE crisis of the China-J Japan war is
looked for within the next ten days or
two weeks by those most interested and
best informed on the contest.
The legations of the two countries are
expecting daily to hear that the decisive
battle has been fought. This is based
on the fact that the Japanese have been
gradually closing in around Pekin and
the invading army is compelled by force
of circumstances to strike the blow at
once or not at all. The intense cold
which comes on or about the middle of
October makes this imperative. The
Japanese climate is very mild even in
winter and the Japanese troops are
wholly unprepared for the rigorous eli
mate about Pekin. The Chinese look
upon this as one of their defenses and
the Japanese fully appreciate that it
cornpels them to concentrate their cam.
paign for this year into the next few
weeks.
They are expected to make heroic
efforts to decide the contest at once
They are without the heavy clothing
camp equipments, ETC., for campaign
in the bitter cold.

THE remarkable outcome of the State
elections in Georgia on Thursday of last
week affords another indication of the
growing power of the populist party in
the South. AS in Alabama some weeks
ago, the populists of Georgia, reinforced
by the Republicans, showed unexpected
gains and succeeded in reducing the
Democratic majority of 1892-about
10000, to less than sixth of that mum.
Der. The vote in Watson's district re.
vealed a populist majority which may
elect him to Congress again. In several
other districts the result is SO close as
to give grounds for a contest,

A TERRIBLE cyclone struck Little Rock
Ark, the evening of Oct. 2, and almost
devastated the business portion of the
city. Several persons we're killed, scores
of others have been wounded. The main
portion of the business center, bounded
on the south by Sd street, on the north
by river front, Cd the west by Center
street and on the east by Commerce
street, is practically in ruins and the
amount of damage is incalculable. The
total property loss will probably approx
mate 100000. The cyclone was accom-
panied by terrific storm and the stocks
of goods in those business houses which
we're unroofed, though not otherwise
wrecked, are destroyed by water.

THE Illinois Wholesale Grocers' asso-
citation is made up of many wholesalers
throughout the State and includes all
but one or two in Chicago. 1t was
formed some months ago with the aid of
the trusts, each member agreeing to sell
his sugar at price that would net him
three -sixteenths of a cent per pound.
He would buy at the card prices in New
York A forfeit of $500 was pledged in
case of default. This agreement grew
out of the fact that in the past the man.
ipulations of the sugar prices have
caused such wide fluctuations that
wholesalers we're unable to make any
thing.

SUGAR will probably go down several
points in price this week. War has
broken out between the trust and the
local wholesale dealers and lively COM
petition, accompanied by rapid drop in
prices, is expected to begin at once.
This, it is said, will profit the small con-
sumner to a considerable extent, but will
entail considerable loss upon both of the
contestants.
The fight began last week with the
sending out of the following notice:
CHICAGO. ILL.,. Oct. 5.-You are here
by notified by the Executive Committee
that all the rules of practice of the Illi-
nois Wholesale Grocers' association are
hereby indefinitely suspended from and

GREAT excitement was occasioned
throughout Europe by report last week
that the car of Russia was dead. The
speculative markets in the principal
cities felt the effects of the report and
there was general decline. In London
every effort was made to ascertain the
truth, but for some reason the foreign
office refused to confirm or deny the re-
port. Later in the day the officials at
the Russian embassy said that the ru-
NOR was without foundation. 1t is evil
dent, however, from the tenor of dis
patches received from st. Petersburg
that alarming reports are current in the
Russian capital in regard to the czar's
health.

TAIL The general funds at the disposal
In the evening the principal feature of
the meeting was an address by Rev. A. b.
Kingsloving of Brooklyn on the general
subject of the necessity of the reforma ton
to the development of modern Christianity.
The larger part of his talk was taken up
with consideration of the religious con-
dtion of Brazil, which he pictured as at
very low ebb. According to Mr.. Kingslov-
ing the work of the Episcopal Church In
Brazil has been eninently successful. There
are now four missionaries in the field, and
there have been ia converts made in four
years. More are being made each month.
There were 100 souls baptized last year.
and $1,000 collected to aid the work from
the native population alone. The outside
contributions. however fell last year $lO-
600 below what they were In previous years
and 1t was hoped that this year there
would be a rally.

Henry l.. Jones spoke of the philosophy of
missionary work, and the evening was
