Mr.. Martin who has been farming
on the reservation makes good report
| Of profits for n::oH year. On $50 acres
OF land he raised 5000 bushels Of wheat
| 600 bus. of barley and 1000 bushels Of
flax. the wheat and barley were sold
and the receipts for these paid all the
| expenses OF the crop. The flax, 1000
bushels was sold for 9Octs a bushel $4,000.
| This Is II comfortable income OF itself.
The croakers who claim the price of
1915 per acre tor this land Is too high
can have no standing In the face of
these figures. The first crop on this
land returned a profit of 81 80 an acre.

GRESHAM's SUCCESSOR.
Talk of Olney. Bayard, Whitney, Dick
fnson and FuStis.

Washington City. May 2S.LThere is con-
siderable speculation by politicians and
others outside OF the administration as TO
the successor TO Secretary Gresham
Prominent among the names mentioned
are those of Attorney General Olney; Mr.
Uhl, the assistant secretary OF state:
Senator Gray, OF Delaware; Ambassadors
Bayard and Eustis; ex-Secretary whitney
and ex-Postmaster General Dickinson
All the predictions are. however specu-
lative, as the subject has not been men
toned, much less discussed. by the presi-
dent or any one in his confidence.
In the act approved February !. 1881,
congress had also changed the law affect
ing the succession to such an Office as is
now vacated by the death OF Secretary
Gresham so as to read: "a vacancy oc-
casioned by death or resignation must be
temporarily filled 0nder the three pre-
ceding sections) for no longer a period
than thirty days" The old law had lin
tied the duration OF a temporary appoint
ment in such cases to ten days but the
president may now designate Mr.. Uhl 10
act as secretary of state for thirty days
at most. In fact. that is just what Presi-
dent Harrison did after Mr.. Blaine's res
ignation. for Mr.. Wharton acted under his
designation as secretary of state for the
full legal period. and Secretary Foster
was not appointed until the last OF the
thirty days.

OSCAR TO TIRED THE WHEEL.
His New Clothes Don't Fit. and They
Are Frlghtfully Unesthetic.

London, May 2s-Oscar Wilde, after he
was sentenced Saturday. was taken to
Holloway Jail, in the. northern part OF
London. There all his money and valua-
bles were taken away by the warden. He
was stripped to his shirt, and the officers
wrote down in the prison register a min
ute account of his appearance, the color
of his eyes. hair and complexion. and any
peculiarities, such as a broken finger. tat
too marks and moles. Then Wilde was put
into hot bath and his shirt, the last YES
tige of his days of freedom, was removed.
Emerging from the water, he found full
suit of prison clothes ready for him, from
underlinen to loose shoes and q hdeous
Scotch cap. His clothes are of dirty drab
canvas. plentifully adorned with drab ar
rows. Shortly afterward Wilde ate his
first real prison meal, an allowance OF thin
porridge and a small brown loaf.
He was taken today to Pentonville. hard
by the Holborn viaduct, prison for con-
victed criminals. He was examined ply
sically with great care, since upon thu
medical officers report will depend what
labor he is to do. II passed sound and fit

first six months exercise in the tread

committee of the London magis-
trates will call frequently at the prison
for the same laudable purpose. On his re-
lease Wilde. If he has worked well, will
have earned the magnificent sum of 10
shillings.
While Oscar Wiide's case has obtained
the public attention recently. the London
police reports show that persons accused
of the ofTense for which he was convicted
come frequently before the magistrates.
on the very day he was convicted John

years at hard labor for the identical crime.

SYMPATHY WITH DEBS
Ironworkers Condemn the Su-
preme Court Decision.
AS A cuRTAlLMENT OF LIBERTY.
The Injunction as a Weapon Against
Strikes EstabIished-DebsR Ready
TO Go TO Prison.

Cleveland. May es-The Aralgamated
Asscciati today adopted the following
resolutions:
United States has just handed down it's
opinion in the case OF Eugene v. Debs.
the language OF which opinion states in
terms that cannot be misunderstood the
supreme courts approval OF the use OF
the weapon Of issuing inJuEctions against
organized labor in strikes. and thus is the
issuing of injunctions further encouraged
and the peoples rights further endan-
gered; therefore. be IL
Resolved, That We, in convention as
sembled. DO view with alarm the unneces-
sary and unjustifa5le curtasiment OF our
liberties that is being done by Injunction;
We regard IL as the means though which
IL is sought 10 steal and take away from
the people by piecemeal rights that a lib
erty-loving people would not permit d.
rect legislation 10 interfere with, thus
making IL the more repugnant because or
its pretended innocence.
Resolved, That We regret this latest
and most far-reaching decision on inJunc-
tons. and that we believe that the time
has come when the united forces of labor
should lend all their energy 10 the correc-
ton OF this civilian evil that If permitted
to go on and continually increase, as
seems probable, must inevitably bring
about the enslavement of the masses.
Resolved. That our sympathy goes out
to Eugene V. Debs, and that We regard
the denial of his petition by the supreme
court as denial of simple justice.

Public Buildings Not TO Be Draped.

Washington City. May 2S.--The proce-
dure in the case OF Secretary Window S
death, above referred to, is indicated in
the following order, dated January 81.
1891. and issued by President Harrison:
"All the departments of the executive
branch OF the government and The officers
subordinate thereto shall manifest due re-
spect TO the memory of this eminent clti-
zen in manner consonant with the dig
nifty OF the Office which he has honored
by his devotion TO public duty.
That the treasury department in all it's
branches in this capital be draped in
mourning for the period OF thirty days:
that on the day of the funeral the several
executive departments shall be closed and
that on all public buildings throughout
the United States the national flag shall
be displayed at half mast"
While IL is at present the intention to
follow the precedent as in the Window
case. there must be one important de-
parture, and that is the omission OF all
signs Of mourning with which the great
executive department buildings We're
draped for thirty days. In the legislative
executive and judicial appropriation act
approved March 3, 1898. congress provided:
That hereafter no building owned or
used for public purposes by the govern
ment of the United States shall be draped
in mourning. and no part of the public
fund shall be used for such purposes"

ist between the statement OF DR.. Krog-

his immediate successor:
Il was called in 10 see Secretary
Gresham on Tuesday noon, April 30. He
was suffering from an acute attack of
gastralgia. with congestion OF the liver
and the undoubted passage of a gall
stone which conditions were relieved by
opiates. These conditions continued in a
yather severe form till Friday, May 3,
when the stomach and bowel troubles
were much improved. but the conditions
in the liver and a developing into in
tercostai neuralgia were troublesome fac
tors. Saturday morning. May 4. at an
early hour, symptoms OF pleuritic COM
plfcations were discovered on the right
side, undoubtedly an extension from the

time Secretary Gresham had no cold or
cough and these pleuritic conditions were
pointed out to Mrs. Gresham and treat

nection with the case terminated at this
time. Saturday, May 4. at a m. I have
