A novel and interesting suit has been
brought in the Supreme Court at Nyack,
n. Y, by George Weimer, of New City. In
March, 1894, while being initiated into
Hakiat Tribe Improved Order of Red Men,
of Congcrs, Mr.. Weimcr had his leg broken
during some part of the ceremonies. 1t
appears that the Congers Red Men became a
trihe too enthusiastic, and the breaking of
the candidate leg was the result. Mr.. Weimer
has had much trouble and expense with his
injured limb, and thinks that $1,000 would
recompense him for becoming the victim of
the Red Men, even if they are improved. His
doctors bill is said to have amounted to $500.
He wanted the tribe to settle this, but they
could come to no agreement, and so the suit
was instituted. Some say that the case will
never come to trial, as the Red Men would
not desire to have their secrets revealed upon
the witness stand, and they may therefore
settle with Mr. Wcmer.

CLEVELAND, O., May l4.-Ts!egrams

many sections nearly all grapes, apples,

The damage is enormous.
At Alliance the thermometer showed

HAS CREATED A STIR.

Earl Of Selborn Proposes to Test Some
English Parliamentary Questions.
LONDON, May IA Much stir has been
created in certain circles by letter
published in the London Times signed
by the Hon. George N. Curzon, member
Of parliament, and. the Hon. William
st. John Freemantle Broderick, men,
Der Of parliament, announcing that the
Earl of Selborn, who succeeded to the
title ON the death of his father on May
3, and who, as Viscount Wolmer, rep
resents West Edinburgh in the house Of
commons, proposes shortly to raise the
question whether peer of the realm
can continue to sit in the house OF com-
mons or be elected a member OF that
body.
The Earl of Selborn intends, it ap-
pears, to continue attending sittings of
the house, contending that until he ap-
plies for his seat in the house of lords
his status in the house of commons Is
not affected. The letter refers to Lords
Palmerston, Castlereagh, Iddesleigh
and others who forewent their seats in
the house of lords in order to retain
civil appointments.
Authorities Are Divided.
The Times commenting editorially
upon the letter, points out that the au'
thorities are divided upon the question
whether a seat in the house of commons
becomes vacant by the mere fact OF the
holders succession to the peerage. The
Times supports the Earl of Selborn's &C
ton, saying that he is quite entitled te
challenge an authoritative decision and
that he, deserves credit for his deter
sninsstion to bring the question to {
definite issue.
The st. James Gazette, on the othel
hand; seems to be rather frightened a
the possible outcome of the Earl of Sci
born's project and says:
''If he succeeds, there will be de
mand for general settlement and re
casting of the house of lords, with the
introduction of some form or other o
an elective element"

WASHINGTON, May 1.-The Toxic
cable stating that Japan has her eye on
the Nicaraguan canal presents new
and important phas, of the canal ques-
tion in which the United States has
taken such vital interest. Thus far
the United States has regarded Great
Britain as the only dangerous COM
petitor for the use or control of the
canal. Now Japan's interest in the
canal presents a new factor. Her vic
tories over China promise to make her
q prominent power in the Pacific. By
gaining privileges In the use Of the
Nicaragua canal Japan will also secure
direct access to the Atlantic without
the long trip around 1.-THE Horn. The
Importance of quick route to the At
lantic from Japan is said to be very great
from naval and commercial stand
point. The details Of the recent nego-
tiations at Washington cannot be
learned. as treaty making is guarded
with much care until the instrument is
