Pay the Demands,

Des Moines, April 2O.-Work has been
commenced by the river lane settlers
along the Des Moines river, gathering
the information as to claims of settlers
for indemnity because of bad titles given
them by the government. The congress
sional appropriation of 5000. 900, made
several years ago, will cover only a
part of the claims. Commissioner

pared a list, and recommends that G.s
there is not enough money to pay all, it
be prorated among them. There is. be-
sides this list, another list of claims,
which he recommends for payment by a
appropriation. 1t is proposed to
have a new bill introduced by the Iowa
delegation in congress to pay these
claims, and in order to get careful infor-
nation as to the amount needed. the set
tiers, through their agent, are at work
in all the counties interested. 1t Is ex-
pected tlfat about $780, 900 more will be
asked.

Queen Victoria and tho Actors.

San francisco ArROnaut.
We get so many of our social laws
from England that it is interesting to
see how Queen Victoria acts when she
has a company of actors up to give a
performance at Balnloral or Windsor.
She has a stage in each castle. and the
entertainment is made to be almost an
exact reproduction of the public per-
formance. Once in awhile the little old
lady a~dlnonishes a performer; mot SO
loud! Not so loud!' n the person ad-
dressed Is apt to get badly ratified
just as they are at the London theaters.
But our present interest is in her treat
ment of the players after the p%resenta
ton. They are allowed ten minutes to
change their costumes and then they go
to supper. Presently an attendant ap-
pears and expresses her majesty's graft
fication and tells the principals to fol-
low him. He brings them into the pres
ence OF her most gracious majesty, who
addresses her observations to each one,
praising or censuring just as she sees
fit. She tells them all Just how to do it;
and when si,. is particularly pleased
with an actor, she makes him sign his
name in her album. Then she resolves
herself into d sort of queenly Santa
Claus and distributes souvenirs, scarf
pins, brooches and rings. At 10 o'clock
in the evening she dismisses her guests.
The next morning when they yet UP,
each receives a MESSAGE which reads
as follows: Her majesty desires to
know how you are and IL you have fully
recovered from the fatigue OF travel

SPENT 9 MONTHS IN CUBA.
A Representative of she Iowa Agri-
cultural College Tells His Expe.

Ames, Ia. April 2O.-Robert Combs,
sugar chemist and representative of the
department of the Iowa Agricul-
tural college as botanical collector. has
Just returned from Cuba. He has been
nine months on the southern end of the
island in the vicinity of Cienfuegos. He
has brought back with him about 800
specimens of plants, representing a very
valuabl collection, as little botanical col
Letting has been done at that end Of tho
island and comparatively little has even
been collected. He also visited Havana
n other parts of Cuba. being well re-
ceived ny the scientific circles of the
island. Those Interested in science rem
dered him every favor that he desired.
Speaking of the present status of the
Cuban question Mr.. Combs has had bun
dant opportunity to inform himself. He
says 1t is one of the richest islands in the
world; sugar. coffee, bananas, oranges and
lemons grow with a ~luxuriance that Is to
be seen in but few places. Sugar cane
needs to be replanted once In ten years,
but the country Is laboring under q great
burden of taxation. Thus. sugar is taxed
not only in the field but the manufacturer
has to a a tax, and. finally, such sugar
as is exported is again taxed.
The insurgents, he thinks. will finally be
liSS VIII supply wear Out inc
SpanlaTds. 1t is merely a question of time.
method OF warfare of the Cubans and
their familiarity with the island are such
that the Spaniards cannot capture them.
AS to their resources, there is no question
that the Insurgents get most Of their as
sistance from the United States and pos
siDly that a great deal of this comes from
the sugar merchants in his country.
Mr.. Combs says that as long as he was
on the island he thought 1t wise to be a
neutral. but since he has come to this
country he is a full fedged insurgent. AS
to their constitution. he states that he
carried the first draft of it over to this
country when he came home last fall.
While they have no real seat of govern
ment they keep track of their important
papers so that the spaniards cannot OBJ
tain them. There are possibly in the
Cuban insurgent army about 10000 men
and the Cuban cause is enlisting strength.
Very few of the Spanish soldiers ever turn
traitors, but there are many Cuban volun-
teers who enlist in the Spanish army and
afterward desert the same for the benefit
OF the Cuban cause. He thinks 1t is inn
possible for the Cubans now to lake Ha-
vana. although is was possible for them to
have done so several months ago.

THE VATICAN THREATENED.
Notified by Rudini That Catholics
Must Be Permitted to Participate
in Public Elections.

Rome. April T.-Marquis di Rudini. the
prime minister. has appraised the vatican
that the ~exeauaturs hitherto accorded to
Italian bishops will be withheld unless the
pope permits Catholics 20 take part In
public elections. The papal %authorities re-
gard this notification as part OF the new
tactics of the dreibund In connection with
the mission of DIR. Kraass, who was sent
TO the vatican by Prince Fohenlohe, the
German chancellor. and the recent inter-
views of the German emperor with with
Cardinal San Felice at Naples. The pope
will not. it Is said. consent to enter Into
any negotiations whatever on the subject.
The relations existing between the vatican
and the Quirinal are intensely strained.
and this communication from the pre-
mier. which is In the nature OF a threat.
may precipitate q crisis.

GOLD COIN CONTRACTS.
The District Court Mt Omaha Re-
fused TO Enforce the Gold Clause
In q Mortgage Note.

AllC lS1SITlct SOuEG 81 StlAuiAA AsS-
fused TO Enforce the Gold Clause
IN q Mortgage Note.
Omaha, Neb., April 20.-The question
of the legality of what are known as
''gold coin contracts" has been raised
for the first time In this county. 1t
came up in the case OF Chase against
Wren, In an action to collect payment
of a 1900 mortgage on which a default
of interest had occurred. The attorney
for the defense raised the point In the
district court as to the effect of insert
ing In a note or contract the words ito
pay In gold coin,' or the words ito pay
II gold coin or its equivalent and ar
gued that in either form the note will
be Illegal. being in violation of the legal
tender law and contrary to public poll
cy. 1t was further argued by the de-
Tense that if not voiding and invalidat-
ing the note entirely, the section requir-
payment in gold was void.
During the argument the court said
that 1t would not enforce that part Of
the note contracting to pay in gold:
that If it came to a question of holding
that the note was payable in gold coin,
or that the contract was illegal and
void, the court would hold that it was
illegal and void.

GIGANTIC BICYCLE TRUST.
Big Concerns Combining TO Drive
Small Manufacturers Out of she
Market.

Toledo, o., April 2O.-A gigantic BIZ
cycle trust is taking shape, with every
probability of its headquarters being
located in this city. The scheme origI-
nally contemplated locating the head
quarters in Worcester, Mass, but one
OF the largest men in the combination,
who is also a resident of the last-named
city, has spent the past month here and
has decided that this is the proper place
for the locating of the plant.
Three of Toledo's largest concerns al
ready have signified their intention OF
taking stock in the trust, although they
are not quite willing to have their
names published as yet. The matter
was definitely settled by a conference
which was held in Chicago three days
ago. at which IL Toledo gentlemen
and the Worcester capitalists came to
an agreement. Three large eastern
factories are behind the Worcester a
and the new concern will be capitalized
at $4,000, 900 to &c., 900, 900. The combine
aims to control h price of every wheel
put on the American market, and to
that end 1t will manufacture in large
quantities everything that enters into
SASSSiG SSiSt1uSlloI, lIlCludluS t!ESsy
wood rims and saddles.
AT the present time three of the larC-
est tube mills in this country are In
operation here. and Toledo now possess.
es twenty individual bicycle factories.
In addition a drop forging plant of ca
pacity has been recently established
here. In adopting this step the Amerl-
cans are practically following in the
frotstapS rf tha Enoltch ,vha on~,lioaJ
for the mutual profit to the manufact-
urers. The same tactics will be followed
in this country, and small factories will
either be gobbled up or driven out of the
market.
A local manufacturer, in speaking of
the matter, said hat the combination
will be larger and more far-reaching
than the Standard Oil company, and.
also. that this trust is starting with
millions, where the Standard began
with dollars.

AUSTRALIAN WOOL CLIP SHORT
Buyers Look for Higher Prices in
s. the Near Future. T.

Washington, April D.-Daniel Marrata.
United States consul general at Melbourne,
in a report to the state department., says
that 1t has been understood for several
months past that the present clip of Aus
tral.an wool would show a substantial de-
crease, compared to the previous one, ow-
ing to the drouth n 10 the fact Of the
strike last year, involving thirteen months
clip, left only eleven months clip In many
places. In New South Wales alone the
sheep have decreased $500. 900, a loss be-
yond all precedent. A good deal OF in
credulity stil exists among European and
American consumers as to the likelihood
of the decrease in the wool product in
volving higher prices. but the buyers who
have visited Australia regard 1t as an alb
solute certainty. Mr.. Marrata gives ex-
haustive m to show that the de-
crease in the present Australian clip may
amount to 100000 or 10000 bales. This de-
crease has not yet been felt by consum-
ers, because up to now there has been no
falling off. but really an actual increase.
in the supplies coming on the market, but
the consumers who have postponed their
purchase and depend upon making them
at the May, July or September London
sales, will have to face a deficiency.
