is put in the new title because since the
original charter was granted the Leglsla-
ture has made an enactment requiring
that word to be prefix in the titles of all
corporations. 1t is not given out either
officially or unofficially what amount the
capital stock will be fixed at.
Before the owners of the property could
agree on the title of the new organization
there was heated discussion. Some
wanted to drop any semblance of the old
name and accept something new, but this
was opposed for business reasons. They
could not afford to drop the word "Atchi-
son." for by that name the company
stocks and bonds were known in the mar
ket. To drop the words santa Fe'' was
equally Objectionable, as that had become
the company's trademark the world over.
To drop Topeka" would have been often
sive to the people of the Kansas capital
and might have caused political trouble
for the company, SO it was decided to &C.
cept George Peck's suggestion, and the
name, ''The Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe Railway Company" was adopted.

ATTACKED THE BUDGET,
Herr Richter Created Quite a
Furor in the German
ReichStag.
Afraid That America Will Retaliate
if the Bounty on Sugar Is
Increased.

BERLIN, GERMANY, Dec. 10.-Herr
Richter, Radical, made violent attack on
the bud get in the Reichstag to-day, and
was especially severe In his criticisms of
the demands Of the Government for colo
NAL purposes and the frequency with
which expeditions for colonial aggrandize-
ment, costing large sums of money, were
organized.
He then called attention to the new
sugar law, which, he said, meant SO, 900 900
marks increased burden to the German ma
ton. He felt convinced that the Govern
ment sugar measures were not directed
against America, and expressed his ap-
prevail of the statement made By Baron
Marshall Won Bieberstein, Minister Of
Foreign Affairs, yesterday, concerning the
tariff situation between Germany and the
United States.
"But," he said, "if Germany should in
crease the bounty on sugar America may
increase the surtax. Therefore abolish
the bounty, avoid the surtax and give the
nation cheaper sugar"
Enneccerus, National Liberal, who sits
for Oldenburg, demanded that care be
taken that the friendly relations with the
United States be maintained.

BOSTON, MASS, Dec. 10.-Eleven NUM-

the State to-day. In nearly all instances
a heavy vote was cast.
In Boston hot contest had been waged
between partisans of JOSIAH Quincy, the
Democratic nominee for Mayor, and
Edwin U. Curtis, the Republican incum-
bent, and the result is that Boston again
falls back into the line of Democratic
cities by a plurality of about 45OO for
Quincy, against plurality of 2557 for
Curtis in 1894.
The following towns voted no license !:
Cambridge, Salem, Lynn, Medford, Bev-

8 O'Clock on the evening of November 81

sweetly and calmly to-day as when she
was first called on the morning of Novem-

the attack of insomnia she is in the best
OF health. Her pulse is below the normal,
but STEADY and strong. Her color remains
good, and she shows no sign OF Ill health.
The nourishment, taken twice day. is
poured into her mouth a spoonful at q

other LIQUID foods. She has become some
what thinner, and this is causing her par

LONDON, ENG, Dec. 1O.-The Times
will tomorrow publish a dispatch from
Caracas saying that in an interview Presi-

sent to the Venezuelan Government by
Lord Salisbury.
The President did say, however, that he
understood that the demand made by
Great Britain in connection with the at
tack made upon the British police was dis
tin ct from the boundary question.
BILE for the attack would be punished for
exec eding his duty, and the Englishmen
would be pensated. He could see no
reason that Great Britain should intervene
in matter that concerned Venezuela and
British Guiana alone.

Kate Field Had a Rough Experience
During the TOyage.
HONOLULU, HAWAII, Dec. 2 (via Vic
toria, B. c., Dec. 10).-Miss Kate Field
had severe experience in visiting the
leper settlement on the 30th, in company
with the Board of Health and guests. The
steamer Kinau landed them early, but
in the afternoon was unable to take them
on account of an unusual sea breaking in.
The sea continued the next morning. The
party crossed the island twelve miles, he
steamer going around fifty miles to meet
them. Through anxiety at their prolonged
absence the steamer Mikahala was sent in
search OF them. The two boats reached
Honolulu in company Sunday evening.
On Thanksgiving day the Government
released seven political prisoners, five ma
tives and two whites-Walker and Rick
ard. Those remaining in prison are: Gu
lick, Seward, Bowler, Bob Wilcox, Bipi-
kane and John Wise. Public sentiment
appears to favor an early release of all.
Thanksgiving morning witnessed the
largest and best-drilled military display
ever seen in Honolulu, over five hundred
volunteers parading.

but he congratulated himself on knowing
that it was based on the newspaper report
of speech; that it was brought before the
House by the editor of a newspaper, was
backed by the editor of another news
paper printed in Boston, and that it was
backed up second time by the editor of
the Lewiston Journal. 1t therefore seemed
manifestly fitting that a newspaper writer
on the Democratic side of the House
(meaning himself) ought to have some
thing to say on the subject. He congratu-
lated the correspondents in the gallery that
the press was at last speaking for itself
on the floor of the House. Laughter
He had no particular liking for the United
States ambassador to England. He had
not forgotten that Bayard had not done
what he should have done toward the re-
lease of Irish prisoners, citizens of the
United States who were uniustly incarcer-
ated in English prisons. He had not for
gotten that Bayard was welcome guest in
the house of the English aristocracy, and
was but rarely invited to Liberal ban
quet, but at the same time he should be
treated with justice by even the RepublI-
can members of the House. What had
been read from Bayard's remarks resem-
bled very much what had been read from
executive documents, and Bayard had
only been reiterating that which the Presi-
dent of the United States had repeatedly
declared in his messages and in his letters
to Congress. If the United States Embas-
sador at London ought to lie impeached
for expressing such sentiments, then the
President of the United States ought to be
impeached. If the resolution was not
offered under false pretenses, why did not
