INGALLS, FOR THE SENATE,
The Kansas Statesman Openly AvOws
His Candidacy.

TOPEKA, Kan, Sept. 3.-At the Labor
celebration in this city, ex-senator John
J. ingalls, spoke from the same platform
with J r. Burton, who is now looked
upon as ingalls, principal opponent in the
race for the United States Senatorship.
Mr.. Ingalls, says openly that he is can
didate for his old seat in the Senate. He
is taking a friendly stand in favor of
silver in all his speeches. After speak
ing in general way on labor topics,
Senator Ingalls, turned his attention to
the last Congress.
"If there were a congress inadequate,
incompetent, insincere, hostile to the
best interests of this country, it was not
the fault of the Congress so much as it
was of the constituents that sent them
there"
Turning to the charges that seats
were bought in the United States Sem
ate he laid the blame at the same door
those who elected Senators.
He said:
'This is one remedy. Abolish the pre-
sent antiquated, clumsy, superfuous and
detrimental method of choosing Senators
by Legislatures and let them be elected
by a direct vote of the people of the
State as they ought to be elected"
This statement was loudly cheered.
Ingalls, went step a further and said
that the only way to purify this govern
ment was to trust the people and said he
favored the election of President and
vice. President by direct vote.

REFORMS IN ARMENIA.
Germany, Austria and Italy DO Not
Like the Proposed Measures.

LONDON, Sept. 3.-The Hon. George
NJ Curzon, Under Secretary for the for
eign office, replying to question by Mr..
Bowles, M. P, in the House of Com
mons to-day, said that several commu
nications had been received from Turkey
upon the subject of the proposed reforms
in Armenia.
Unfortunately, he said, the communi-
cations were unsatisfactory. The pro-
iect of reforms which had been suggested
by Russia, France and England has not
received the official support of Germany,
Austria and Italy. But the
powers last named, Mr.. Cur
zon said he believed were in
sympathy with the reforms proposed.
As to whether the government would
undertake any action beyond diplomatic
representations or negotiations without
previously informing Parliament of the
grounds upon which the action would be
made, he was unable to say, nor could
he make any declaration regarding the
course the government would find them
selves called upon to pursue in regard to
American affairs.

TME LARGEST CIRCULATION OF AMY NQRT GARDQNA DAILY
FROsTs IN THE NORTHWEST.
The Cotton Crop Has Improved in
North Carolina During the Week.

WASHINGTON, D. O., Sept. 3. The
Weather Bureau, in its report of crop
conditions for the week ended Septem-
Der 3, says:
The week has been generally favora-
able for maturing and securing crops
and for plowing and seeding.
Late corn has experienced a general
improvement in the principal corn States
and is maturing rapidly.
Cotton picking is now quite general
over the southern portions of the cotton
region aud will commence in the north
ern portions next week. Complaints of
rust and shedding continue from Geor
gia and Alabama but condition of the
crop in Arkansas is less favorable than
previously reported. Cotton has i'm
proved in North Carolina and late cot
ton has been improved in Texas by re-
cent rains, which, however, have been
unfavorable for the early crop. In Ten
nessee cotton is suffering from drought.
Much tobacco has been cut and housed
under favorable weather conditions dur
ing the week. In Maryland and Virginia,
tobacco has suffered much from drought.
Frosts were general on Saturday and
Sunday from Montana eastward to Mich
igan.

POISONED BY HER DAUGHTER.
The Object of the Murderer was to Get
an Estate of 100000.

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.-The funeral of
Mrs. Evelina Bliss, wealthy lady who
died last Friday, was held this morning
and Immediately afterward the daughter
of the dead woman, Mrs. Alice Fleming,
was arrested at the Colonial Hotel, on
charge that she murdered her mother by
poison. The case is mysterious one
and in some respects a sensational one
as the death of Mrs. Bliss gives to her
daughter the income from an estate of
$4,000 left by Robert Swift Living
stone. who was the first husband of Mrs.
Bliss. To Dr. Bullman, who was sum-
moned to her bedside Friday night, Mrs.
Bliss said that she had been poisoned by
relatives who would be financially bene-
fitted by her death. She said that she
had eaten clam ehowder and piece of
apple pie.
The doctor says that Mrs. Bliss at
tendants failed to give her the medi-
cines be left for her. He secured the
dish in which the chowder had been, and
a piece of the pie and gave them to the
coroner. The coroner had an examina-
ton made of the dead woman's stomach
by chemist W. T. Scheele. who says that
he found traces of metallic poison in the
stomach, and also in the dish which had
contained the chowder. and that it had
evidently been very skillfully prepared
by some one with knowledge of poison.
