SECESSION URGED.
Southern Baptists Want Their Youth

BALTIMORE, Nd, Feb. 23.-The Bap-
lists OF Baltimore are discussing the ques-

Societies of the South shall secede from the
Baptist Young Peoples Union Of America
and form separate organization. Such a
movement is being urged by consider
able number of Southern Baptist clergy
men. The matter will come to an issue
at the Southern Baptists' convention at
Washington, in May. The reasons urged by
friends of the plan are that it will give
the Southern societies unity of loca-
ton, thought and sympathy. The mattar

West to some central point where the in
spiration that comes from such a united
effort may thrill them with the determina-

News Received at Louisville.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Feb. 23-The wrecked
train was the first section Of the Louisville
& Nashville passenger No. that left this
city at 3:22 o'clock yesterday afternoon.
One coach that escaped destruction was
private car No. 50, which was occupied
by Mrs. Lowell and party. Mrs. Lowell
is the wife of General Superintendent Lo-
WE'LL of the Monon, and was on her way
with party of friends to the Mardi Gras
festivities at New Orleans. The tain had
been divided into four sections, each sec
tion separated by q few minutes of time,
on account of the large crowds en- route
to the Mardi Gras celebration Section No.
l consisted of four coaches-one baggage
car and three seepers, exclusive of the
private car of Mrs. Lowell. At the general
managers office it was given out that the
engine and entire train had been wrecked
and everything burned with the exception
of the private car Mr. Priton n. Clarke,
Mr. DePauw and Miss Kate DePauw were
among the passengers on the Inflated train.
A dispatch from Montgomery, Ala, says
the train was wrecked at Hawkins switch
by a rail turning. The entire train rolled
down an enbankment and took fire. Every
car was burned except one. One man who
attempted to jump as the train went down
was caught under the car and killed. The
male passengers did noble work in rescuing
the women from the cars before the fire
reached them.

15,OOO,Oo STAMPS.
Result of the Edna Kane "Chafn"
of Letters Scheme.

of Letters Scheme.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 23.-The scheme of
friends of Edna Kane and Mettie German.
of Kaneville. ILL.,. in instituting chain
of letters, seeking Cancelled postage stamps
for the benefit of the latter, a cripple, has
resulted In an investigation by a postoffice
inspector and the report has been for
warded to Postmaster-gener Bssell. The
scheme has caused great annoyance to the
postal service, aggravated by new chain
inaugurated at Eel Paso, Tex,
in mock expression of sympathy
flooded with mail result. The number
of Cancelled stamps found in the room of
the beneficiary of the system is estimated
fat 1900, 600, and the report says farmers
boys supplied with sacks have carried off
many of the letters. The mails have not
only comprised letters, but boxes and bum
dies carrying between LOCO and 10000 can.
celed stamps. There are enough idiots
throughout the country says the inspector,
'to swamp the Office with the stamp let
ters, driving the postmaster to an insane
asvium. The present situation Is ridiculous
for all concerned, and viii likely end in a
grand bonfire of 15000.000 stamps already
received" The scheme, he concludes, has
demoralized the Office. and the good of the
service demands an immediate remedy. The
issuance of a fraud order prohibiting the
use OF the mails is recommended, but the
report has not yet been acted on.

SUGAR BOUNTY WAR.
Germany and France Struggling II
Maintain q Big Industry.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-According to
the cable advices there is promise of a.
very singular struggle in Europe for the
control of the sugar market, and the
United States, which receives a great part
of it's sugar from the countries involved.
will naturally be much affected. The prac-
tice of encouraging the growth OF sugar
beets and production of sugar therefrom by
the payment of a bounty on exported sugar
has long obtained in Europe. The results
were such as to exceed the most ardent
expectation of the promoters of the bounty
system, and soon the beet sugar output as
sumed such great proportions as to seri-
ously injure the market for cane sugar.
With increased production prices began to
fall and the governments were compelled
to increase the boUnties in order to satisfy
the great agricultural interests Naturally
the country which paid the largest bounty
had command of the sugar market for its
producers, by the aid of the bounty, could
undersen their competitors. The burden of
these bounties at length became too great
to be borne. Then an effort was made to
reach some kind of an arrangement be-
whereby relief could be secured. The three
great rivals We're Germany, France and
Austria. Germany began by giving notice
of the termination of her bounty system in
1897 and the other countries adopted more
or less direct means OF reducing the
bounties. But it appears that in Germany
the beet sugar industry has obtained a
hold too strong to be shaken off, Under
the encouragement of the bounty system
great tracts of land which were formerly
covered with wheat, rye and other cereals
were given up to the sugar beet and all
through the country factories sprang up for
the making of beet roots into sugar thus
giving employment to many thousands of
people The government finally became
alarmed and sought 10 discourage the ex-
tention of the industry, but without avail
The farmers complained that they could not
go back to cereal raising. for they could
not meet the competition of America, Rus
sia and Argentina, nor could they raise
stock at profit. So the crops of beets in
creased and prices went down so that last
year all but the very largest factories lost
money and the assurance is facing the Ger
mans that this year, owing TO the enormous
crop, they will fan much lower. To save
the farmers from ruin IL is believed to be
necessary to extend the foreign market
for German sugar and this can be done only
by the increase of the export bounty. But
to do this would violate the late UNDER
standing between three great competing
powers and cause reprisals. As i II. the
niere suggestion OF the German programme

GREENVILLE, Ala, Feb. 23.-The south
bound passenger train the Louisville &
Nashville railway, passing GreenvilIe at $40
o'clock this morning, was derailed three
miles below and a serious wreck resulted
The cars rolled down an embankment and
caught fire. Five of them were burned, in
cluding two passenger coaches, the baggage
and express cars and one sleeper. The en-
gine tore its way along the roadbed for
some distance, tearing up the rails. A large
number of passengers were on board, many
of them en- route to the Mardi Gras festivi-
ties at Mobile and New Orleans. The ply
sicfans in the city were summoned in haste
and soon reached the wreck, where every
thing possible was done to relieve the suf-
ferngs of the victims. When the extent of
the damage was ascertained 1t seemed mar
velous that only one life was lost. Several
people We're more less seriously injured.
The casualties were:

LEASING FRUIT RANCHES.
Chinese Seeking to Control Cali
fornia's Leading Industry.

SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. pa syndicate
of wealthy Chinese of this city,, composed
Of members of the Six Companies has
secured lease of the fruit ranch owned
by General John G. BidweH, the wealthy
Chicago fruit raiser. Bidwell's orchard
was for many years the most extensive in
the State and still ranges second contain
ing between 1900 and 5000 acres planted
in deciduous fruits. Nor has the syndicate
stopped at the one place. Several large
orchards in the northern fruit belt, aggre-
eating several thousand acres, have been
secured at rentals varying from $1,000 to
5000 year. The. past two seasons have
been SO Improbable to orchardstS that
they are glad to lease to the Chinese who
able to hire coolies at half the wages
white man would be obliged to pay them
and can thus afford to pay big rentals. A
local cannery owned and operated by
Chinese will handle the products of these
ranches. In the orchard white laborers will
be unable to obtain employment, and seri-
Gus labor troubles are feared during the
coming season.

VETOED BY CLEVELAND.
The FIorists' Bill, n Railway Meas
ure and a Pension Bill.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23-The President
to-day sent to Congress three veto messages.
One vetoed House bill to incorporate the
Society of American Florists. On this bill
the President commented follows
NO sufficient reason is apparent for the
Incorporation of this organization under
federal laws. There is not the least difficulty
in the way of the accomplishment under
In the bill of every purpose which can legiti-
mately belong to their corporate existence.
The creation Of such a corporation by
tious and troublesome precedent. There
appears to be no limit in the bill to the
posed corporation may hold If acquired by
donation or bequest. The limit OF $J0,o0o
applies. only to property acquired by pur-
chase
Another veto bill was authorizing
the Kansas City, Oklahoma & Pacific Rail-
way Company to construct and operate a
railway through Indian reservations in the
Indian Territory and the Territories of
Oklahoma and New Mexico. The President
says of this measure that 1t contains con-
cessions more comprehensive and sweeping
than any ever presented for his approval,
and it seems to him the right and interests
of the Indians and the government are
the least protected. The route apparently
desired is described as indefinitely as possi-
Bile, there is no provision for obtaining the
consent Of the Indians through whose terri
try the railroad may be located, and though
territories having convenient local courts,
all controversies arising are to be passed
on by United States and district courts for
Kansas, .'and such other courts as may
be authorized by Congress" In concluding,
the President says: In constructing legis-
lation of this description, it should not
be forgotten that the rights and interests
of the Indians are important in every view
and should be scrupulosly protected
The third vetoed bill granted pension
to Hiram r. Rhea, whose name, the Presi-
dent says, removed from the pension
rolls after he had fraudently received q
pension for nearly twenty-five years, and
the President calls attention to letter
written in 1892 by the Commissioner of Pen
sions, denouncing Rhea's claim bare
faced and impudent fraud. supported by
deliberate perjury. The facts established by
an investigation, Mr.. Cleveland says, show
reputable member of a band of armed rebels
and was wounded by Union soldiers.

to-day convicted of the fraudulent use of
the mails. The scheme worked by him and
numerous other attorneys was the issuing

and northeastern States, collecting thou
sands of dollars from number of persons
for whom he never filed claims before the
council. In these he reported himself as
agent of the nation Five thousand of the
applications for citizenship taken by him
were never entered. Four other attorneys
are under indictment for the same kind
OF frauds and their cases have been called
