GUARDS TO DISBAND
South Dakota Governor Gives
Notice of a Lack of
Funds.
10 STATE APPROPRIATION
Is Available This Year-May
Continue at Their Own
Expense.


Sioux FALLS, S. D., April 1.-The
expected has happened. Governor
Sheldon has issued an order to each
company of the national guard in this
state, that after July 1 of this year, all
assistance from the state will be cut off.
He says that the companies have the OPP
ton of actual abandonment or a contin-
uation an the basis of each company pay
ing all of its w expenses, including
armory rent. This action, the COVER
o says, is necessary, in view of the
fact that the last legislature cut the APP
preparation for the guards from SIS, 900
to $500. The appropriation made is sim
ply for the quartermaster generals Of
fee. Inspector General c. T.. LETTERS
says that in his opinion, this order of
the governor is the death blow to the
national guard in this state for at least
two years. He says he has no reason to
hope that in the face of hard times
any Of the companies in the state will
undertake the expense of keeping up
their organization, rs the expense is
considerable. The governor says that
should the companies see fit to retain
their organization the heads Of depart
ments and staff and field officers will
gladly serve without pay.

BELIEVES LEM LIVES.
DE-. NORMAN Thinks He Has Been Held
for Ransom.

for Ransom.
NEW YORK, April 11.-Dr. J. G.
Woman, the editor of Outing, has re.
ceived a cable dispatch that will help to
throw some light on the missing bicy-
clist Frank G.. LEM. The dispatch
a Y that LEM has been traced to a
Kurd village about 8 miles from Ere
roum. He reached there on May 10th
and the villagers say he was murdered.
LEM was known to have reached
Chilgani on May 9th, but after that no
news was re eived until the above men
toned dispatch. According to the dis
patch Lenz arrived at Chilgani a little
after shutdown on May 9. H. was the
guest of a man named Auak Parsagh
and was in good health and spirits.
In the evening IA number OF vii
layers called to see him and
his wonderful machine. He spoke
to them and made them understand
that he had come from Persia and was
going to Erzeroum. He left early the
next morning. About a month later
the villagers heard that he had been
killed in the vicinity of a village named
Kurdali, one of the three villages Lenz
would have to pass in crossing the
mountains. 1t is the first village he
would reach. These Armenian villages
are now in ruins. The Turkish soldiers
massacred the Armenians just about the
time LEM was in that vicinity.
Probably Held for Ransom.
DR.. NORMAN, does not believe the re-
port that Lens is murdered. He said to
a reporter:
~ think Lenz was carried away by
the Kurds into captivity and they are
waiting for him to be ransomed."
Sachtlehin, the 'cyclist who has gone
to find Lenz, reached Constantinople
on March 25. Where he is now, DR..
NORMAN declined to say. He said,
though, that the Turkish authorities
had declined to allow the representative
Of Outing to visit Armenia, and that
the American minister had made a de-
mand upon the Turkish government
that he should be allowed to search for
Lenz, who is an American, and is miss
ing. DIR. Norman is determined that
no effort shall be spared to find the
missing cyclist, aud he believes that
the government here will help in the
recovery of LEM.
LEM is a native of Pittsburg. He is
81 Year. old and started on his trip
around the world on June 4, 1892.

TO CORRECT MORGAN.
Earl Of Kimberly to Elucidate the Behr'

Earl IF to Elucidate the Behr-
ing ga Award Question.
LONDON, April 1.-THE earl of Kim
berly probably will lay before the house
of commons an elaborate reply to Sena-
tor Morgan's speech in the United
States senate on the Behring sea ques-
ton. The reply was prepared by Sir
Julian Pauncefote and is an analysis OF
Mr.. Morgan's statements, showing
them, it is said, to be erroneous III fact
in many particulars and unjust in their
conclusions. The subject is handled IN
the form Of a report from Sir Julian as
to the status of negotiations for paying
claims of masters of Canadian ~sealers,
seized in Behring sea. 1t
shows that Mr.. Morgan erred
in stating that fictitious values
had been put on some of the vessels and
cargoes seized. 1t also appears, 1T is
stated, that Mr.. Morgan's statement
that interest was added was erroneous,
as no interest was included. The total
mount is declared to be only about
half of a just and reasonable allowance,
and to have been agreed to as a compro-
mise against the wish of the Canadian
masters, although they finally agreed to
a reduction of their claims. The sub
iect will be presented to parliament
mainly for the purpose of correcting
alleged misapprehensions created by
Mr.. Morgan's statements in the Ameri-
can congress.

Workman Moore of the A. o. U. w.

the annual session of the A. o. U. w.

This action is taken on account of the

the officers will not contest, as the only
O ,ject in postponing the session was to

FRIENDS OF SILVER
The Senate Committee Will
Continue to Favor the
White Metal.
so SAYS SENATOR VOORHEES,
Republicans Will Probably Or
ganize the Senate, Though
Not in Majority.

WASHINGTON, April 11.-Speaking of
the reorganization of the senate which
is likely to occur, owing to the changes
caused by the last election, Senator
Voorhees, of Indiana said:
Il have no doubt the Republicans
will organize the finance committee. l
for shall make no opposition, and L
do not believe that any other Democrat
will. Thu Republicans, while not pos
sessing a majority over all other par
ties in the senate, will have a plurality,
and it is right that they should take
the lead in shaping legislation. l ex.
pect to surrender the craftsmanship of
of this committee to Senator Morrill, at
the beginning of the next session."
viii Favor silver.
Senator Voorhees, also stated that the
committee would continue to be friend
~ to silver under the organization.
1T is a silver committee now," he
said, land it will continue to be a sill
yer committee, regardless of economic
views of the addition which the Repub-
licans may make to it. MIR. McPher-
son, a Democrat, is the only member OF
the committee as at present organized,
who will not be a member Of the next
congress, and he is the only Democratic
member who is opposed to silver.
The other five Democratic members
will, with Senator Jones of Nevada,
constitute q quorum of the committee,
even if the vacancy shall be filled by
the appointment of an anti-sllver he
publican. I do not, of course, know
what course the Republicans may adopt
in filling the vacancy, as that will de-
pend upon the conclusion of h Re
publican u but if the silver Re
publicans should succeed IN getting
one of their own number on the COM
mittee, the accession will only make
the majority that much more pro-
nounced."
Declined to Discuss Jones.
Senator Voorhees, declined to discuss
the probability of the retirement OF
Senator Jones of Nevada from the COM
mittee, because of his utilization with
the new silver party, further than to
say that he believed that h strong
personal popularity of the Nevada sena-
tor would serve to cause his retention
as a member.
Senator Cockrell also said, in reply to
a question that he had no doubt tina
the Republicans would reorganize next
December, and Senator German ex-
pressed the opinion that they would do
SO in case they were successful in the
Delaware election, upon which con-
tingency might depend their willing
ness to assume this responsibility.

Campos VIII Assume q Conciliatory Air
Toward Cubans.

Toward Cubans.
WASHINGTON, April 1.-THE policy
of General Martinez Campos, SPANS
commander-in-chief, who is now en-
route to Cuba for the decisive stroke
against the revolution, is made known
in copies of the proceedings of the
Spanish congress just received here. On
the night before Campos sailed, both he
and the minister of foreign affairs adj
dressed the cortes.
The significance of General Campos'
speech lay in its conciliatory tone,
showing that his purpose was to avoid
bloodshed. 1t also brought out that
while he would keep free from party
entanglements in Cuba, he would be
strongly inclined toward the autono-
mists or conservative element, and
would depend on them to resist separa-
ton from Spain.
II am in hope" said General Cam
pos, ''that when / arrive in Cuba, the
wal will be over, for l have no wish
for that kind of glory"
He expressed hope that the various
political parties in Cuba would be in
spired to assist him in putting down
the uprising within a short time.

recognition, is received with some
doubt by those in Washington ac-

have a fervid eloquence, heightened by
personal grievances against Spain. He
was arrested in Havana in his youth

session Of '93 there was q vigorous con-
test for the nomination for senator by
the republican caucus. The night
Thurston was nominated 1t was

the committee room Of the Lincoln ho-
tel and while it was in session Mr..
Thurston was walking up and down
in the lobby. He said to me: Il will
be nominated before eleven O'Clock, and
/ expect to be elected by the legisla.
ture. l went into this fight at this
time against my own judgment. but I
am glad now that l allowed my name
to be used. There is a better chance
for a republican to make name in
the senate now than there has been
for years. The old party leaders are,
many of them gone, and the fact that
the democrats are in power is an ad-
ditional reason why / want to be elect
ed now" But fate and Representative
Laidlow willed 1t otherwise. II there
was a chance for an aggressive repub-
ican senator to make a name then
there is a better chance now. Cleve-
land is still president. Pending do
nestle and foreign difficulties afforded
a suitable opportunity for the exploit
