JUGGlEO THE FACTS.

General Warmers Characterization OF
President Cleveland's Letter.
DENVER, April l7.-General A. j.
Warner, in an interview, stigmatized
President Cleveland's financial letter
a. dishonest representation OF facts,
which contaied an apprehension Of de-
feat and an acknowledgement OF the
great battle that was pending.
But there must be a new party he
added I'VE must mass the millions OF
voters who want bimetallism. think
that party will be formed. 1t did
not, would go home now and stay
there
Mr. Sibley said that from hasty
perusal of the letter, he judged it was a
string Of glittering generalities, empty
words, signifying nothing.
James B. Weaver characterized the
letter as stupid. He said:
1T is evident that Mr.. Cleveland and
the gold wing Of the Democratic party
will ally themselves with the Republi.
can party in the next campaign. In
fact there will be but two parties-the
gold and bank party, represented by
the Republican ticket, and the united
reform movement, or alliance, consist.
ing Of Populists, free silver Democrat'
and free silver Republicans.

SHOWERS OF SAND.

Very Peculiar Atmospheric Conditions In
Oklahoma. Colorado and Kansas.
KANSAS CITY. April IA storm Of
great severity passed over Eastern Col
orado, Kansas, Oklahoma and the
Southwest generally. In Colorado and
Kansas it is believed considerable dam
ago was done, but it is impossible to
learn anything from those sections be-
csuse Of the fact that all telegraphic
communication has been cut off.
Reports from Oklahoma state that a
destructive wind and sand storm passed
over Southern Kansas and Oklahoma,
dbing much damage to crops. A Apeculiar
feature of the storm was the intense
darkness and extraordinary electrical dis
play! The atmosphere was surcharged
with electricity and several persons and
horses were stunned and shocked by
electeic shocks. In the western part OF
OKLAHOMA and the pan handle Egyptian
darkness prevailed. Such a peculiar
storm has seldom been seen, and the
superstitious thought the astronomical
conditions which, is has been claimed
by South Carolina minister, are now
zepeating themselves for the first time
since the death of Christ, had some
thing to do with it, The rain that fell
in Western Oklahoma was actually q
shower of mud

HAYwARD's DRIVE.
He was Not Taken Out for Pleasur
Alone, 1t Ia Said.

He Was Not Taken Out for Pleasure
Alone, 1t Ia Said.
MINNEAPOLIS, April 1.-THE sheriff
will take Claus A. Blixt for a drive
next Sunday, it is asserted. He was
asked if he did not wish to go in the
carriage with Harry Hayward on Sum
day, but declined, with some show OF
alarm. There has beeu some adverse
comment because the sheriff took a
condemned man on pleasure trip, but
there may be an explanation.
I'VE drove out OH business" said
one Of the deputies, land took him with
U.s."
What did you want him for:" was
asked.
Don't you remember the box that
Blixt soldered up?'' was the question in
reply. ut disappeared you know"
That was all the deputies would say
in regard to the matter, but it leads the
inference among some people that per-
haps there is to be another sensational
confession. This might easily be
assumed if the deputy told the truth
else why should Hayward go with the
sheriff to the woods to assist in looking
for the tin box which Blixt swore Harry
said he intended to hide in the woods
and Harry said he never saw.
There was hint given out at the
courthouse to the effect that the driving
party did not return empty handed
In fact, some Of the officials who were
not in the carriage with Hayward were
heard to ask what had been done with
the tin box. From this it will be seeI
that the belief is, even in official cir
cles, that the box was found whers
Hayward had hidden it and that thu
sheriff has it safely slowed away some

NOT ENOUGH LIFE BOATS.

Complaints Against the Steamship Com
panies ON the Great Lakes.
WASHINGTON, April 17.-Complaints
have been received at the Office Of the
supervising inspector Of steam vessels
from numbsr of ports on the Great
Lakes, including Milwaukee and Du-
luth, that many of the passenger
steamers plying in these waters do not
carry the number of life boats pre-
scribed by law, and that in many cases
those which are carried are rendered
useless in an emergency by being
fastened down or allowed to get out of
repair.
General Dumont is now OH tour
which will take him to many of the
lake points, and it is likely that he will
institute an informal investigation II
it appears that there is ground for the
complaints the local inspectors will be
instructed to look into the matter rig
idly and see that steps are taken in
every instance to comply with the letter

and anger succeeded the premature ella

Special Order to That
Effect.

WASHINGTON, April II. In view OF

the reported scarcity Of cattle the chief
of the bureau of animal industry, DR..
