CONDITION OF THE ORANGE TREES
II Is Extremely had in the Gaines
vile District.

Gainesville, Fla, March 6.-There is no
question but that lots of the orange trees
are dead clean to the roots, others are
dead to within a few feet Of ground, and
a few are alive to the smaller branches.
quite a number of growers are cutting
their trees off at the ground to prevent
them souring back to the roots. All the
small trees are dead. Quite a number
are waiting to see how far up the body
new sprouts will appear before doing any
cutting. The freeze has opened the eyes of
many to the fact that they must plant
something they can eat. and lots of hog
and hominy will be made in this section.
The truck farmers have all planted
again largely, and if no frost interferes
there will be an enormous quantity of
vegetables raised for the northern mar
ket from this section. Strawberries will
begin to go forward by March 10.

RED THUNDER DEFIANT.
Refuses to Let the Marshal
Arrest Any of His
Braves.
Attack by Turtle Mountain
Indians.

ST. PAUL, MINI, May A st. John
IN. d. special to the Pioneer Express
says: The day has been one of much ex-
element, but ended without bloodshed.
Indian Agent Hall came up from the
agency this forenoon and drove out to
where the halfbreeds were fortified in
Kinghan's house. He urged them not to
resist the officers, saying that all who took
part in the resistance were equally liable
Red Thunder, in reply said the Marshals
could not have the men wanted, that they
were not strong enough without troops.
This afternoon Michael Langden, one of
the men for whom warrants are out, came
into town and was recognized by the Mar
shall and arrested
Citizens made strong objections to the
Marshal holding Langden. claiming it
would result in an immediate attack on
the town. Marshal Cronin decided the
boldest course was the best, and will send
the prisoner to Rolla in buggy with two
deputies. Immediately on the arrest a
mounted courier on watch in the brush
near town, left for the Breed camp. There
was great excitement on his arrival.
The Breeds began dancing and prepar-
ing their ponies and bands started toward
town several times, but apparently were
recalled by leaders. Immediate attack
seemed probable and the women and chill
dren here were collected from outlying
houses.
Agent Hall then went to the camp again.
When he first went in they were still much
excited and claimed that he had promised
them that no arrests would be made that
afternoon. Hall told them he had prom
ised that the Marshal would not attack
them, but that if they came into town they
would be taken. 1t was the duty of
the Marshal to serve the warrants if he
found the men.

WHEN LEAVING CORINTO
Acceptance of the Modified
Ultimatum of Great
Britain.
ALL THE TERMS ARE SETTLED.
1t Now Remains for the Warships
to Receive Orders and
Withdraw.

MANAGUA. NICARAGUA, May AT 1
o'clock this morning Nicaragua authorized
Senior Christiano Medina, Salvadoran
Minister to London and Paris, acting
Nicaraguan Minister in London, to accept
the modified ultimatum of Great Britain.
This modified ultimatum, it is understood
here, was secured by the influence and
through the intercession of the United
States Senior Medina is authorized by the
Government to pay the Els, 900 in London,
under protest, within five days after the
departure of the British squadron from
Corinto.
Orders for the evacuation of the port of
Corinto by the British are to be cabled to
Admiral Stephenson to-day, and it is
thought probable that he is already in pos
session of instructions to that effect from
Earl Spencer, First Lord of the Admiralty.
1t is understood here that the other
items in the original ultimatum of Great
Britain will all be settled by arbitration.
Gable messages have been constantly
passing and repassing during the day be-
tween Senior Medina in London and Presi
dent Zelaya of Nicaragua. In the first of
the messages, received early in the day
from London, Lord Kim erley, through
Senior Medina, the Government of Great
Britain stated the terms of its modihed
ultimatum. The terms of the ultimatum
were at once accepted by the Nicaraguan
Government, and word to this effect was
dispatched to Senior Medina in London.
Senior Fiallos, the Honduran envoy, sent
last evening to Admiral Stephenson, COM
handing the British squadron, for the
purpose of acting as mediator between the
two countries, was received this morning
with much courtesy on board the flagship
Royal Arthur. Admiral Stephenson ex-
pressed the hope that the terms of the
modified ultimatum would be of such a
nature as to allow him to salute the Mica
raguan flag when he departed with his
squadron from Corinto.

AS to his own case, Hayward said he had
little hope of escaping the gallows. He
remarked complacently that he expected a
funeral about the first of the year and
iocularly called the attention of Sheriff
Holmber who stood near, to the fact that
he would have to manage the execution.

TRACTS FOR THE INDIANS.
Type for Printing Them Has Recently
Been Made at Winnipeg.

During the past winter there has been
in course of preparation by type foundry
an odd-looking face of type, having the
appearance of a lot of Greek and Roman
capitals holding a conversation among
themselves. The Greek delta occurs fire.
quently, as do also the Roman V, L and
P, all turned about in most extraor-
binary fashion, says the Winnipeg
Tribune. The type is variety of the syl-
Liable alphabet adapted to suit the lam
guages of the Cree, Beaver and Chipewyan
Indians dwelling in Athabasca, along the
Peace River. The inventor of the system
as applied to northern tongues was Rev. J.
Evans, a Methodist missionary at Norway
House. 1t has since been adapted to fit
nearly every Indian language in the north.
The alphabet is syllable one-that is to
say, 1t has sign for each syllable. The
Indian languages, while they contain long
words, have comparatively but few sylla-
bles, and these are constantly repeated.
In the syllabarium in use among the Crees
there are thirty-six principal characters
In adapting 1t Tor use among the Chipe-
wyans and Beavers it has been necessary
to invent or use about sixteen additional
characters. These represent all the root
syllables.
The method has proved wonderfully
adapted to Indian tongues and Indian
ideas. The Roman letters drive an Indian
almost to distraction and he rapidly for
gets what he learns with SO much trouble.
The syllabarium he learns frequently in
one day, and once learned he never forgets
1t. The use of this system can be readily
seen among nations of hunters such as
we have in the north The circumstances
OF the chase prevent more than two
families living together for any length
OF time, and the missionary as he
goes from camp to camp, spending
a few days at each, and utilizing seasons
when the Indians gather at the Hudson
Bay Company forts at trading time. To
teach them more than the rudiments of
Christianity at such visits is impossible,
and the flame would go out if it were not
Tor the TACT that the missionary teaches the
INDIAN how to read in the syllable and
leaves him portion of the scriptures and
other books in his own tongue Besides
the DOCK OF common prayer and hymnal,
other works, such as Bunyan's "Pilgrim's
Progress have been translated into syl-
Liable. The boon that this alphabet has
been is incalculable.. The type in this
present case is being made for Dr. Young,
the well-known Church of England Bishop
OF Athabasca, who has been living in Win
nlpeg the past winter, engaged in corre-
spondence, transitional and other work
Tor the benefit of his vast diocese on the
banks OF the Peace River. Bishop Young
will take this type and suitable printing
press with him when he goes north this
spring, and from this press will 90 forth a
steady stream of Christian literature to
tighten up the dark places of the northern

LESS LAND, BUT MORE CASH.
Japan WitIing to Make Some Concessions
to Russia.


WASHINGTON, d. c., May An
nation has reached Washington to show
that in response to Russian intimations
Japan has abated her claims to the cession
of Chinese territory in Manchuria and the
absolute cession of the extremity of the
Port Arthur peninsula far north and in
Guiding Talienwan. In return Japan will
demand considerable increase of the in
demnity originally fixed at 100000, 900
taels. 1t is feared this concession will not
be sufficient to meet the demands of Rus
STA, which will insist upon the entire
abandonment of Lao Tung peninsula.
Russian reasoning is that by the occupa-
ton of Port Arthur the Japanese will
dominate Manchuria as effectually as if
they held the nominal title to the province
Reserving Port Arthur as a military base
and opening great commercial port at
Talienwan, the Japanese will connect the
latter by rail with New Chwang on the
line of the projected Chinese railroad from
Peking to Moukden and divert the entire
trade of New Chwang and Moukden, at
least in winter, when all of the Manchurian
ports are closed. 1t would also be impos-
sible for Russia to locate a western termi-
nal port for the Siberian railway anywhere
in Manchuria, as it would be easily closed
by the japanese from their powerful base
at Port Arthur, which would dominate,
from military point of view, not only
Manchuria and Pechili but also Wei-hai-
wei only forty miles across the straits.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May A. The
Nicaragua Canal Commission has COM
pleted arrangements for its trip to Nicara-
qua. Civil Engineer Endicott, the naval
member, will leave Washington to-mor-
row night for Mobile and the other men,

time to. sail on the Montgomery on the
7th. The party will consist of fourteen
persons, all engineers except two, a
stenographer and porter being the excep-
tons. Two members of the party will be
sent by the canal company, Lieutenant
Manocal, the chief engineer of the COM
pany, and his son.
1t has not yet been determined, and will
not be known until the commission is
ready to leave Greytown, whether detail
of marines from the Montgomery will ac-
company the commission over the canal
route. If the country is tranquil such
force will not be taken, but Secretary Her
bert has said that in case Nicaragua is in
disturbed state and there is any danger the
commission will be amply protected.

DUE TO UNCLE SAM.
Salvador Does Not Deserve the Glory of
the Settlement.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May At is
stated by officials of the diplomatic corps
who have been directly concerned in the
British-Nicaragua imbroglio that misap-
prehension exists as to the part taken by
the United States in bringing about
settlement. Some recent cables to this
country from London have sought to con-
vey the impression that Senior Medina, the
Salvadoran Minister, effected the settle
ment.
1t is recognized as an established fact by
those familiar with the correspondence
that the good offices of the State Depart
ment, exerted in no uncertain way through
ambassador Bayard, brought about the
agreement. 1t was deemed advisable,
however, that Senior Medina should be the
medium of formal communication, al
though express efforts would not have
brought appreciate results had they
not been supplemented by Mr.. Bayard.

Doctrines of the
President.
BRYAN APPLIES THE LASH.
Leaders Who Vigorously Oppose
Bowling to the Dictatorship of
Grover.

CHICAGO, ILL, May 4.-President
Cleveland and Senator John NJ. Palmer
each received ''jacketing" at the hands
of ex-Congressman w. J. Bryan of Ne
braska, at the Democratic free silver county
convention to-day, and as each of them
was pulled over the Goals, delegates signi-
fed their approval by round after round OF
applause. Comptroller of the Currency
Eckles was also the target for Mr.. Bryan
arrows. and his thrusts were evidently re-
garded as center-shots by delegates, as
they yelled with delight.
The convention adopted a 16 to plat
form out and out, and elected delegates to
the Springfield convention.
EEx-Judge S. P. Mcconnell was made
temporary chairman. He said during his
speech: "The President of the United
States, the man who was elected by Demo
cratic franchise, has repudiated the Demo
cratic party. Applause and cries of
Right. We repudiate him. [Applause. ]
We stand on the platform of 1892 We are
in favor of the restoration of silver as we
declared then"
He then scorched Senator Palmer for his
attitude on the money question and was
wildly cheered at the conclusion of his
remarks.
Ex-Congressman w. J. Bryan of Ne
braSka came next. He said in part:
Eve are not here to denounce the Presi-
dent of the United States. We are not here
because we love him less, but because we
love our country more. Loud applause. I
We are not here to say anything against
the rights of individual opinion either in
the chief executive or in the humblest
citizen, but we are here to protest against
language used in a letter written by Grover
Cleveland, published in this mornings
papers, indicating that it is indecent for a
man to hold Office under this administra-
ton without bowling to the dictatorship of
the head of it.
This is the first official declaration, my
friends, that to hold Office under this ad-
ministration prohibits the Democrats
from interfering in politics to defeat Re-
publican-it is the first announcement that
Democratic ofice-holding depends on the
willingness to fight Democrats when they
could not fight Republicans" ZAP
plause.
He then paid his respects to Senator
Palmer, declaring that his power as a
leader had gone, and that he had no fol-
lowing among the Democrats.
The platform declaring in favor of silver
at 16 to l was then read and adopted,
twenty-four votes being cast against it.

Dir. Cleveland.
CHICAGO, ILL, May 4.-Three hundred
Democrats were present at the banquet of
the Waubaunse Club tonight when the
monetary question was discussed from the
"sound money" standpoint. President
Vincent in his opening remarks declared
fatty against free silver and was greeted
with loud applause as he did so. Senator
John NJ. Palmer made an extemporaneous
speech on Democracy and Money" and
got back in vigorous fashion at the free
silver Democrats for denouncing him and
his attitude on the money question at the
convention this morning. Professor J. L.
Laughlin of Chicago University followed
with talk on ''Silver and Prices" Rich
ard W. Knott, proprietor of the Louisville
Evening Post, spoke at some length on
Currency and Commerce"
His speech was an out and out decIara-
ton against the free coinage of silver He
declared that at last, after thirteen years
Of falsehood and chicanery, of compromise
and makeshifts, of double-dealing and
demagogism, the two great parties are
face to face with the money question. 1t
is TO be settled, he said, not compromised.
AS a Democrat he looked hopefully toward
the Democratic party, which, he said,
must rise to the situation or perish. He
said
''If men who believe and know why they
believe that fat money in all its forms is a
deadly delusion will face the multitude
and proclaim the truth, the intelligence
and conscience of the country will awaken
and the American people will trample
down the hideous doctrine of reputation.
''The free coinage of silver, under the
present legal tender law, is an attempted
reputation of half our debts, public and
private. By such an act we surrender our
position among frst-class nations and
place the United States on a commercial
level with Mexico and China. Proclaim as
we will that sixteen ounces of silver are
worth an ounce of gold, England's mega
tive uttered every day in Lombard street
overthrows every proposition based on
that false utterance.
Speaker Crisp has been telling the
people of this country that they could not
get rich by taxation; that a protective
tariff was robbery; that though a legisIa-
tive act could alter prices it could not alter
values. He was right, and yet to-day in
his home in Georgia Mr.. Crisp says the
people demand the free coinage of silver at
16 to L, and that they intend to have it.
Free coinage of silver and a protective
tariff alike impugn the intelligence of the
American people, and it is only question
of time when they will reject both alb
surdities.
Where do we stand to-day? The Presi-
dent of the United States is the leader OF
the forces of sound money. The Speaker
of the House puts himself at the head OF
the Southern silver men; and they are
Democrats, both of them. Which flag are
we to follow-that in the hands of Cleve-
land or that in the hands of Crisp? 1t is a
party crisis of supreme importance. AS
party men we have to meet it."
The speaker asserted his belief that the
Democratic party would follow the lead o
