Chairman Wilkinson OF the

for October %. After this meet
ing political matters will assume
lively shape and the pot set

of two parish committees, each
claiming to be the legal one. A
struggle will no doubt be made by
each faction to capture the dele

convention. After all, who are the
candidates for Governor Foster
is the only one spoken of thus
far, and he is no good. Is there
is any stuff in the state to make a
good" governor, we know OF none
if our brethren of the state know OF
some let them come out with it.
But we mean one who will moi
change color after he is elected
and turn his back to his friends
as did Foster. Give us the genu.

THE MORA CLAIM.
\ Diplomatic Scandal Said tn Exist in
Connection with II.

New York, July IA special to
the World from Washington says;
Spain ; payment of the Mora claim,
as Indicated by cable, will at least de-
feat the intrigues of American and for
eign claim sharps For years a coterie
of diplomats at Washington and Mad
rid have sought to make the sentiment
of this historic award conditional on
the acknowledgement of counter claims
by the United States.
THE story of all tins plotting to
mulct the government brings to light a
serious diplomatic scandal and shows
how the Mora claim has secretly been
made to figure as an important Incl
dent III scheme for securing the
transfer of Cuba to the United States.
Nathaniel Page, the wcll-known inter
national lawyer, who for years has rep
resented the Mora family, furnishes
documents and letters which seem to
throw a flood of light on the obstruc'
tons interpOsed to prevent the payment
Of the Mora award. Mr.. Page speci-
fically charges ex-Secretary of State and
Minister to Spain John w. Foster with
this work Mr.. Foster has denied the
charge and Mr.. Page now comes for
ward with papers which he claims sub
stantiate the charge. Mr.. Page, how
ever, charges that several Spanish MIL
listers of this country, as well as at
taahes of the French legation, OBJ
structed the Mora interests and did all
they could to induce him to hold up
the Mora claims,

FRENCH HUSBANDRY
The Worlds Markets for
American Products.
THE CATTLE PROHIBITION ACT
Some Extracts From the Third Bulletin
Issued by the Department
of Agriculture.

Washington, July 16.-The secre-
tary of agriculture will issue in a few
DAYS bulletin No. 3, on the world 5
markets for American products. The
bulletin contains short statistical in
PRODUCTION on the agricultural condi-
ton of France, and the reports of con-
suls from Cognac, Havre, Nice, Gren-
oble, Rheims, Limoges and Bordeaux.
/ 1t also contains copy of the decree of
the minister of agriculture prohibiting
importation of American cattle into
| France; also statement of the tenn
porary suspension of the export of
sheep from the United States, owing
to the exaction by the French govern
ment of certificate from the United
States veterinary inspector to accom-
pany all sheep landed in France from
the United States, which shall certify
that none of them have been exposed
to any contagious diseases for period
of six weeks prior to date OF shipment.
The bulletin also contains map,
showing the different localities of the
several consuls who have made reports
to the department, through the state
department.
Among the important statements
contained in this bulletin is one show
ing the area, production and trade of
wine i'll France. A comparative state
ment of the wine produced by the diff
terent European countries Ill 1898 and
1894, as well as by the United States,
will also be found, which shows that
the production of wine i'll France for
1894 was ,031 ,657,8 SIG gallons, while
that of the United States was but 250,
900, 600.
How few realize that on the western
coast of California, which is probably
the counterpart of the western coast OF
Europe, with Great Britain attached
to the continent, every condition OF
soil and climate can be found to pro-
duce the wines peculiar to European
countries.
The bulletin also contains an i'm
pOrtant statement i'll regard to the
total trade of France, exclusive of the
precious metals, as compared with the
trade of the United States, Germany
and the United Kingdom. This state
ment shows that the United Kingdom
has an easy lead over her nearest three
competitors, and that her commerce is
about equal to that of Germany, France
and the United States, her two nearest
rivals, and that of Germany, France
and the United States are not far
apart, France taking the fourth rank.
In 1890, 1891 and 1894 Germany occu-
pied second place and the United States
third, while for 1892 and 1893 this or
der was reversed with respect to these
two countries.

Quoted by the Rev. j. George Gibson,
the regular pastor. No strangers were
admitted, except by card of invitation.
Only the lower part of the church was
used, the gallery leading to the belfry,
where Blanche Lannon'S body was
found, being closed. In the afternoon
a sort of love feast was held, and many
ministers of other churches were
present to offer congratulations. There
was no reference in any of the prayers,
addresses OF sermons to the crimes
which made the church notorious. A
force of police in citizens clothes was
at hand to prevent trouble, but there
was no sign of disturbance.

Claims Title to Indian Lands.

Fender Neb., July 1.-THE conro-
versy over the leasing of the Indian
lands ON the Omaha and Winnebago
reservation took new turn today,
when the district court enjoined Agent
Beck from making further evictions.
The injunction was secured ON the pc
tition of the Flourney Land Company,
which pretends to have title to the
lands. Since a state court has no au-
thority over the reservation, it is not
believed the agent will take notice of
the injunction, although the civil au-
thorities state they will enforce it.

New Line to Mexico.

City of Mexico, July 1.-THE MeXi-
can government has granted an import
ant concession for a new steamship
company, to be called THE Munson
Steamship Line to Cuba and Mexico, ="
which will ply between ports along
the Atlantic coast of the United States
and points along the Mexican coast.
New York and Philadelphia are
named as the probable terminal points,
but it is expressly stated that the COM
pany is permitted to select other sta
tions. The contract names the MeXi-
can ports OF Tampico, Vera Cruz and
Progresso, and may also touch coming
and going at TuXpan, Alvarado and
Tlacotalpan. There must be in the
Mexican capital an agent with full
powers to decide questions that may
arise between the Mexican government
and the company, besides agents at the
Mexican ports, at which the steamers
will touch. The company is given
power to increase the number of its
steamers touching Mexican ports to ply
between ProgressO and Cuba whenever
it shall be convenient.
