CHAMPIONS OF CUBA.
Enthusiastic Meeting at Philadelphia
The Postponed Atlanta spcceh-Cap.
tain ker's Bold Remarks,

Philadelphia, Nov. 21.-The cause of
Cuba was eloquently and boldly adyo-
Gated ut the Academy Of Music tonight
at meeting held under the auspices of
the Philadelphia brigade, Pennsylvania
reserves. The principal address of the
evening was made by Governor Claude
Matthews, of Indiana, who delivered
the speech upon Free Cuba" that he
had proposed to deliver at the Atlanta
exposition. The audience was not
large. but 1t made w in enthusiasm
what 1t lacked In numbers, and Gov
ernor Matthews and the other speakers
ments they gave utterance to in behalf
Of Cuban liberty were those Of their
auditors.
Governor Matthews was followed by
Gonzalo De Quesada, of New York, the
secretary of the Cuban Junta. Captain
w. w. Ker. assistant district attorney
of Philadelphia, made the most radical
speech of the evening in favor OF the
Cubans. Captain Ker has attained
wide notoriety Of late as the owner OF
the steamships Leon and Laurada,
which have been accused OF landing
filibustering expeditions upon the
shores of Cuba.
Captain Ker boldly proclaimed his
right under the laws of this country to
land men and munitions of war upon
the coast of Cuba, and that the burden
Of preventing him doing this rested up
on the maintenance Of a blockade by
Spain. He ridiculed and derlded the
opinion of Attorney General Harmon
that the laws of this country prevented
him from doing this and asserted that
under orders from Washington every
custom inspector in the ports OF the
United States has become a Spanish
spy. Continuing, he said: And they
might as well know that, until Cuba is
free ships will constantly sail from this
country and land upon the coast OF
Cuba men and arms; and furthermore,
II they keep their eyes and ears open
they will hear Of another expedition be-
Ing landed in about ten days. They talk
about risks. We are willing to take
those risks. and Z they arrest me. am
confident they could not find a jury In
Philadelphia who would convict me-"
Captain Kur spoke at great length In
this strain and told If the oppressive
taxation imposed by the Spanish gov
ernment upon the natives Of Cuba and
asserted that, II this government rec
ognizes the belligerency of the islands.
and should men go there and fight

The Rain.

The rain Of Saturday night began
about quarter past nine oclock, and
came gently, but at times the fall came
down in torrents, and .continued all night.
The U. S. Signal Observer, MIR. Todd.
gives the measurement as LA inches of
rain. June is predicted wet month by
weather observers. There is a deep
snow in the mountains at the source Of
the Arkansas river, and with rains and
melting snow in the mountains we may
expect an abundance of rain and con-
tinual flow Of water in the river.
Tie rain of Sunday continued several
hours, commencing in the afternoon and
continuing until 10 O'Clock at night.
The rainfall was 10 inches. making a
total of 2.94 inches for tie night and day.
The Arkansas river had large flow of
water Monday morning, and continued
to rise during the week.

Crops Assured.

The rains Of last week changed the
character Of crop prospects in this part
of Kansas. Excepting alfalfa, previous
to the rains, no crop of any description
was probable. Now, fair crop prospects
are assured. One of our farmers esti-
mates that considerable wheat will be
raised in Ford county. and be puts the
crop at 100000 bushels. Barley will
likely make the poorest crop, while oats
promise a fair yield. Corn is doing well.
Many farmers talk of planting sorghum.
and there is plenty Of time for the plant
ing of this seed during June.
The rains extended over the entire state
OF Kansas, and they will do All estimable
amount of good.
Kansas has Z. 500, 100 acres in corn, and
imagine the yield at the low estimate of
GO bushels to the acre. This is alto
gether probable, for in poor wheat year
Kansas always has q big corn crop.
The alfalfa crop will double its yield
since the rains, and a seed crop will now
be obtained.
