WHAT FLOWER SAID.

The Ex-Governor Discussed Crop and
Presidential Prospects.
New York, June 2O.-Ex- Governor
Flower has returned from his Western
trip. Among other things he said to a
reporter:
Don't believe what people tell you
about bad crops. It's going to be a
crop year. The cold weather which
we had few weeks ago only injured
winter wheat, and not more than
100000 bushels of winter wheat is
raised east of the Rocky Mountains.
But the spring wheat is in fine condi-
tion, and the corn crop promises to be
very large. The corn was not out of
the ground when the frost came, 80 it
escaped injury. Fruits are also in
good condition. Our personal observa-
tion of the farming territory through
which we passed give us great encour-
agement, and the reports which we
got at Chicago from the railroads con-
WINGED us that these favorable condi-
tions were general throughout the
West and Southwest.
Presidential candidates seem to be
quite numerous on the Republican side,
but ON the Democratic side there seems
to be disposition to await political
developments before discussing candi.

Kersohner's Case to Be Presented.

Washington, June 10. - Secretary
Herbert has decided to give the attor-
ney of Medical Inspector Kerschner,
found guilty by court martial on
charges preferred by Admiral Meade,
an opportunity to make an argument
before him on behalf of the surgeon.
The sentence in the case is understood
to have been dismissed. The secre-
tary at one time was ready to send the
papers in the case to the president and
the representative and attorney of Ker-
schner induced him to give them an
opportunity to present their case. The
acknowledgement of the navy will
present the other side of the case.

The TOp-Heavy Ship.

San Francisco, June 81. - R. P.
Schwerin, vice-president and general
manager of the Pacific Mail Company,
was examined this afternoon by the
United States inspectors of hulls and
boilers, in connection with the founder
ing of the steamer Colima off the coast
of Mexico May 26. Schwerin testified
that he was an officer in the United
States navy for nineteen years. He
had inspected the Colima before she
left San Francisco, and found her in
good condition, upon which he had
congratulated Captain Taylor, and ad-
monished him to take good care of the
ship and passengers. He stated he in
spected all Pacific Mail steamers before
they went to sea. The life boats were
ready for service, and, if they were
dashed, he said, it would have taken
only a minute to cut the ropes.
Schwerin admitted that the lumber
was piled three feet high on the Col
ima's deck, but said the lumber was
securely dashed for ordinary weather.
He was positive the lumber did not
make the Colima top-heavy.

MILLIONS ASKED FOR.
Litigation over the Famous Little
Johnny Mine of Colorado.

Litigation Over the Famous Little
Johnny Mine of Colorado.
Denver, June 21.--Thomas d. Kelly,
of Galena, Ill. in the United States cir
cult court today petitioned for a re-
clever for the Little Johnny Mining
Company, asking for the removal of
the present officers and an accounting
of the company's affairs. He also asks
possession of one-sixth interest in the
Leadville Bonanza mine, which is al
legged to be worth from $50, 900, 900 to
500, 900, 900. The plaintiff represents
himself, Margaret o. Kelly, Michael
e. Kelly and Annie B. Kelly, all of
Galena.
The basis of the Kellys' sensational
and enormous claim is rightful own
ership of a one-sixth interest in the
Little Johnny mine, which was wrested
from them by conspiracy and fraud
ON the part of the defendant persons
and company. 1t is charged that for
the paltry sum of $1,000 they were
fraudulently deprived of property
which at the time of the transaction
WAC WOlUh many uhAAAAOho Va uOAitl o,
and which has since steadily increased
in value.
The complaint alleges that Thomas
J. Kelly, son Of Thomas d. Kelly,
was one of the original locators and
patentees of the Little Johnny. He
died November 8, 1885, and by Colo
RADIO law the plaintiffs are his heirs.
In 1898 they conveyed their interest
in the mine to the defendants, being,
it is alleged, by fraud and collision,
kept in ignorance of the value of the
mine. 1t is further set forth that be.
fore or soon after the death of Thomas
J. Kelly the Little Johnny mine had
become worth $1,000, 900 to $40, 0O0,,
900, and had become one of the most
wonderful bonanzas in Colorado, and
was paying many millions of dollars
in gold and silver at the time the
fraudulent deed was secured; that il
has become richer and richer since thai
time, and is now worth from $50, 900,
900 to 800, 900, 900; that the Little
Johnny mine is now yielding from
100000 to $500, 900 in cash pei
month, all of which is being fraudu
lently appropriated.

Fairs Wheat Partner,

San Francisco, June 20.-An even
ing paper publishes sensational story
stating that the late ex-senator Fair
had partner in his purchase of 206,-
900 tons of wheat, by which specula-
ton loss of from $2,O00,O 900 to 3d.
900, 900 was incurred. 1t is said that
another millionaire estate was connect
ed with the attempted wheat corner in
a partnership capacity, and that since
Fairs death strenuous efforts have been
made to conceal the fact, the living
partner saddling the entire loss upon
the dead. Wholesale bribery of clerks,
brokers and others intimately connect
ed with the big wheat deal is said to
have accomplished silence regarding
the partner who did not pay his share
of the loss.

GERMANS Turn
Anxious for a Slice Of Xene
zueian Terri tory
This Action Is Expected to Call Forth
Another Interpretation of the
Monroe Doctrine.

Washington June 19.-There is rea-
son to believe that the United States
will have occasion to give another in
terpretation of the Monroe docrtine as
applicable to the acquisition of an ISL
and off the coast of Venezuela by Ger
many as a naval station. The atten-
ton of officials has recently been d.
rected to the interests of Germany IN
that locality, and there is apprehension
that the subject may assume quite as
formidable an aspect as that OF British
aggression ON Venezuelan soil.
An enormous amount of German
capital has been invested in Venezuela
of late under peculiar circumstances.
The government wanted railroad
through rich and productive valley,
and German syndicate stood ready to
build the road on condition that Vene-
zuela would guarantee 7 per cent on
the capital invested. The guarantee
was given and the road built and put
into operation about eight months ago.
At the outset, it was supposed about
81, 900, 900 would amply cover the cost
of the road, but the actual outlay
reached 80, OO0,0 900. By the terms of
the government guarantee, Venezuela
now becomes responsible to the German
syndicate for Z per cent return on this
So, 900, 900.
The road has not been in operation
long enough to determine what it will
earn, but its most sanguine promoters
do not hope that it will pay per cent
on the outlay. Whatever it earns will
be applied on the investment, and
Venezuela will have to give sufficient
to bring the earnings up to per cent.
It is said to be the same German in
terests that are inclining the German
government to regard with favor the
acquisition of an island off the coast,
to be used as naval station, and as a
sort of base of operations for Ger
many on the American continent.
The guarantee of Venezuela to the
German syndicate is of a private char
acter, the German government having
no interest in the matter, but it is
looked upon as affording a convenient
means by which the government, in
giving protection to it's citizens, coul6
also carry out it's desire for the acquisi
ton of naval station. The circum'
stances are such as to lead to the belief
that the United States will again be
called upon to define to what extent
the acquisition of territory by foreign
powers in South America is compatible
with the Monroe docrtine.
Great Britain already possesses al
, island at the mouth of the Orinoco, OF
which powerful naval station has
been established. There are two othel
islands near by owned by Venezuela
either of which would be well adapted
to Germany's needs. There is another
large island further up the coast, but
constitutes a province of Venezuela
and its people have such intense loyalty
to Venezuela that they have named il
New Spartans. They would, un
doubtedly resist any separation, ever
if Venezuela assented to it.

Anxious to Know Olney's Policy.

Anxious TO hnOW olhey's Tollcy'
New York, June ia special to
the World from Caracas, says:
Everyone is anxious to know what
policy Secretary Olney will adopt con-
corning this country and its quarrel
with England. 1t was well under
stood that the late Secretary Gresham
had promised to intercede in behalf of
Venezuela, asking England to submit
to arbitration, as Lord Granville had
promised Guzman Blanco in 1888
would be done, promise which Sails
bury had afterwards refused to recog-
nize. A semi-official telegram from
Washington says Mr.. Olney will fol-
low Secretary Gresham's policy, and
will finish a new Interpretation of the
Monroe doctrine which the latter had
undertaken, enlarging its scope.
Government officials say the govern
ment has been assured it will not have
to cede the territory between Essejuibo
and Pumpabrima on the Orinoco delta,
including the immensely rich mining
district lying back of it.
The presence of an American COM
mission in Nicaragua, examining the
canal, is pointed to as an indication
that the United States hereafter will
take more determined stand in favor
of American republics as against Eu-
rope. The government announces that
there is every prospect of an early set

broadly that France and England may
