In the Spanish Deputies.

MADRID, March 16.-Replying to ques-
Sons propounded in the chamber of
deputies today. Senior Alexandra Grois-
card, minister of state, said the report
that Minister Taylor, acting on behalf of
the United States government, had
claimed that reparation from Spain was
due the United States on account of the
Alliance incident was true. The United
States government, he said, at the same
time demanded that American trade
with Cuba should not be interfered with.
He hoped the Alliance affair would be
amicably settled. The United States
government, he explained, considered
the firing on the Alliance to be a viola
ton of the principles of international
law. Minister Groiseard, in conclusion,
said that the Spanish government had
ordered the fullest investigation of the
affair to be made, and the government
was willing to agree to any settlement,
provided the principles of international
law were not infringed upon, and that
no attempt was made to prejudice the
dignity of the nation. Senior dia Moreau, +,
formerly an officer in the Spanish navy,
said the commander of the gunboat had
the right to demand that the Alliance
should show her flag. He argued the
Spanish officers also had the right to
search any vessel found in Spanish
waters. Minister Groiseard declined to
make any further statement, or to at
tempt any explanation of the incident
until complete details and the report of
the Spanish officers of the gunboat which
has, it is claimed, fred upon the
Alliance, had been received.

objection on the American side, which,
since the great majority of extradition
proceedings occur in America, each side
defraying the expenses of proceedings
within its respective sphere, bears more
than it's proper share. Consequently, in
1891 the American government made ad-
vances to Germany with the view of
modifying the treaty provisions in this
and other respects, including the right
of each government to try extradited
persons solely on the special charges
under which their extradition was de-
manded. Germany, however, was not
satisfied with the proposed changes, and
the negotiations alter time we're
dropped. A recent extradition case at
Hamburg, the person involved being a
clever adventures, who passed herself
off in Berlin and elsewhere as the Arch
duchess Theresa D'Este and victimized
several persons to the amount of 200, 900
marks, is the direct cause of reopening
the negotiations for a revision of the
treaty. This time Germany came for
ware with certain proposals, and these
were sent few days ago, through the
American ambassador here, to Washing

CHICAGO, March 16.-An amended bill
was filed today before Judge Payne in
the fight commenced against the state
council of the American Protective AS
sociation of Illinois last fall by Professor
Walter Sims. The bill asks for receiv-
er for the organization. In the amended
bill Sims says that up to January 4, 1895,
he was member of the organization, in
good standing but that he was expelled
therefrom in an illegal manner. Sims
then cited hie damage suit against the
defendant and says he believes the $4,000
assets Of the concern will be wasted un-
less receiver is appointed. Sims al.
leges he was expelled because he an.
nounced he would vote at the fall elec.
tion for candidates not indorsed by the
advisory board of the council.

Chang Travels in state.

WASHINGTON, March 16.-The Japan
ese legation has received cable mes
sage confirming the press dispatches of
the departure of Ii Hung Chang from
Tien-Tsin for Japan to arrange terms of
peace. Negotiations will be conducted
at Simonosaki, instead of Hiroshima.
The change has been made to accommo-
date Ii Hung Chang. Simonosaki is on
the extreme southwestern coast of
Japan.
1t is stated at the legation that asser-
tIons that terms of peace have been ar
ready are erroneous. No details, it is
said, have been settled. Japan has
been informed that Ii Hung Chang has
full power to arrange terms, and has
been assured that China desires the
war to be stopped by treaty agree
ment. Japan has reached certain con-
cIusions, especially respecting cession
of territory, but no conclusion has been
reached with China.
Minister DENLY has cabled the state
department confirming the report of the
dedarture of Ii Hung Chang from
Shanghai for Japan. He says the vi
ceroy sailed in royal state with 40 per-
sons embarked on two ships.

MANUAL SCHOOL.
Prof Ayers Has New Plan of
Training
WHICH IS TO BE INTRODUCED

at the High SchOOi-Et is the Rudi-
ments OF Manual Training
School.
The Topeka high school is not to be
outdone by any other school of the same
kind in the country. A manual training
department has been added and will be
in full operation when school commences
a week from next Monday.
To Prof. F, Fl. Ayers of the natural
science department is due the credit for
| the new department He conceived the
idea and found a ready second in Supt.
Davidson and the board of education
! gave their consent that the new depart
ment should be added to the curriculum
1t is to be made optional with the male
students, and only those who keep up
their other studies will be allowed to take
the work. It is thought that the work of
the department will be an incentive to
better work in the class room on that ac-
count
1t has also been arranged that the work
in the new department shall in no way
Interfere with the work in any of the
other departments of the school, and for
this reason it will be conducted after
school hours in the afternoon. As school
is dismissed at $3.50 this can easily be
done.
Prof. Ayers has already secured good
portion of the machinery to be used aud
it is being put in place in the large ply
steal laboratory. He has already secured
a screw cutting lathe, wood lathes, emery
wheels, polishing bluffs and drill presses,
as well as several other pieces of ma
chinery.
In speaking of the new department
Prof. Ayers said: SIT is our intention to
use our apparatus in giving the boys
a thorough practical training We ex-
pect to make our own apparatus chiefly,
and that will mean a saving in every de-
partment of the high school. When
some article is needed I will put the
class to work on designs, and when
have approved one Of them we will make
the patterns and have the castings made
at some foundry, if castings are required,
but the polishing and mounting and all
the rest of the work we will do our
selves"
Prof. Ayers is to have charge of the
| new department

SAW A CYCLONE GO OVER.
A Roaring Cloud is Observed Passing
Over Great Bend.

4 storm passed over this city on Mon
day night about $50 o'clock that was
considered a cyclone. says the Barton
County Beacon. 1t was about mile
high, but the roaring was so loud that
some of the citizens of this city made
preparations for fleeing from its track.
It came from the west and was shut
out from view by thin rain cloud, I'M
til it had passed over to the east when
the gigantic balloon could be plainly
seen. The density of the mass and its
gentle undulations in the air indicated a
great power. Cyclones are beautiful to
observe when they are mile high.

Say They Are Disseminated Against in

The Colored Independent league is
after Mayor Fellows with a sharp stick.
The league has $50 mem ers, and they
figure that they can now become power
in politics.
The reason that they are out with
Mayor Fellows is because he discharged
the two colored men, Smith and Hardy,
from the sanitary force.
A committee was appointed at the
meeting Thursday night to wait upon the
mayor and find out what he means. The
committee is instructed to ask him if the
sanitary men we're discharged for incom-
potency, and if they were whether it would
not have been possible to have found two
competent men among the 1900 colored
men who, they say, voted for Mayor Eel

economy, why the colored men had to go
and the white men were left
