SERIOUS ALARM.
Populists and Democrats in Washing
 ton Fear and It Happened.

WASIIINGTON, Aug. 21.-At both Democratic and Populist headquarters serious alarm is felt over the situa- tion in Idaho, where news dispatches indicate that the Democrats and Popu- lists are trying to effect fusion which will leave out the silver Republicans. The managers at both headquarters consider that this attempted combina- tion at the expense of the silver Re publicans is a violation of the spirit of a free silver campaign, which seeks to combine all the silver forces, and they fear its effect on silver Republicans of other western states. They believe the different forces should combine on equitable and just terms and effect a division such as was made in Mime sota and Washington.

IRRIGATION SCHEME,
John D. Rockefeller Said to Be Inter-
 ested in the Subject.

HOUSTON, Aug. 21. Referring to the morning press dispatch which stated that John D. Rockefeller was backing the scheme to irrigate the lands along the Wichita river, Senator Lasker, who is also an interested party, said to a reporter that he thought it a mistake about MT. Rock efeller having anything to do with the matter.
 Some parties who are connected with MT. Rockefeller have expressed their willingness to furnish the money provided certain contracts for using the water from the plant are made, , said MT. Lasker. Those contracts are now being secured and presume these gentlemen will be ready to put up the money and have the surveys made.
 There will be about 100000 acres of the finest land in the country irrigated.

of Roswell is visiting in the city. He was bookkeeper when Charley Perry, the gambling sheriff, disappeared after drawing on his account for $5,OOO while at Santa Fe. The deputy col lected about $12,000 in taxes after Perry's draft had been honored and the sheriff could have taken this also had he gone home. The officer was last seen at Alpine, Texas, where he had trailed and assisted in capturing a robber of the postofice at Liberty, New Mexico. Perry lost most of the $S,000 gambling at Las Vegas, Santa Fe and El Paso. Some of it he blew in on feminine companion who now mourns his absence probably as much as does his wife at Roswell. Probably neither of them know his whereabouts. The presumption is that the rowing of ficial has gone to Africa or South America, as he is adventuresome.

COSTUMES IMMODEST.
Fort Scott People Object to Bloomer
 Street Parades.

FORT SCOTT, Aug. 21-Complaint has been made to Chief Roberson of the action of several Fort Scott women who, during the last few days have ap- peared on the streets in the scantiest kind of cycle costumes which, while we'll made and stylish, are very loud.
 The complaint was made by a con- mittee of cyclists who asked the chief to either forbid the women from ap- bearing on the streets or compel them to wear costumes of the same style of the other cyclists of their sex.
 The officer gave the committee to understand that he would look after the women, and that they would be compelled to desist from any more ex- hibitions on the main streets.

The Japanese Steamers
 to Connect.
The First Steamer Within Six
 Months.
The Agreement Brought A bout by the Santa Fe-4OOo Tons Freight
 Per Month.

The San Diego Sun says: A dispatch was received today from A. H. Butler, now at Chicago, to the effect that ar engagements with the Toyo Risen KaIisha were completed and that the Japanese steamship line or the Ori- ental Steamship company would make San Diego its eastern terminus, pro- viding San Diego and Los Angeles will comply with the requirements asked for and agreed upon at the conference held in the Hotel Brewster in this city at the time of President Asano's visit here. MT. Butler leaves Chicago for : San Diego today, intending to stop one , day in St. Louis. President Asano having satisfactorily concluded his conference with the Santa Fe officials at Chicago, leaves tomorrow for New York. The conference referred to in this dispatch is the one held here on the 7th inst. between President Asano and H. Okawa of the Japanese steam ship line and representative citizers of San Diego and Los Angeles At this conference President Asano stated that his company did not care anything
 about a guarantee of incoming car goes, as it was believed there would be no difficulty in that direction, but it
 did want a guarantee of 4,000 tons of
 outgoing freight each month. The Santa Fe people stated that arrange ments would no doubt be made for the
 satisfactory handling of cotton through this port. The matter of the
 freight guarantee was discussed pro
 and con and the matter was finally set tied as far as possible by the appoint
 ment of committees from Los Angeles
 and San Diego who agreed to enter into
 bond to guarantee 4,0O0 tons of
 freight per month, with the further
 agreement that if the freight is not
 forthcoming the amount would be
 made up in cash at the rate of s3 per
 ton in gold or s6 in Japanese money.
 This agreement seemed to meet with
 general approval, and President Asano
 said that if his conference with the
 Santa Fe officials at Chicago was suc- cessful, the first steamer would be here
 within six months. That conference.
 according to the dispatch, having been carried out as hoped, 1t is fair to pre- sume that the Japanese steamers will be seen in this bay, before many months. No definite agreement was settled upon as to the pro rata of guar antee to be put up by the different cit les, but 1t was generally understood that Los Angeles is ready to stand good for at least one-half of the guarantee. The Toyo Risen Kaisha was organ ized in Tokio in May with a capital of $6,000,0O0 President Asano, who is
 many times millionaire, has s75O OOJ ) invested. The company has now six r steamers of 4,O00 tons capacity. and 3 President Asano is going to London to = buy dozen more. The company will
 receive big subsidy from the Japanese
 government.

The Situation in McKinIey's
 Own County.
Mr. Dolls Views Are Slightly Dis torted Regarding Bryan's
 Reception.

CANTON, Aug. M.-Speaker Hiram Doll sent the following letter to Gap tain Dick Walker of Kansas in reply to the letter published by the press as sociation as having been sent from Canton, and giving reports about the political situation in iMcKinleys home county:
 Canton, Ohio, Aug. 21, 1896.
 '"To Captain Dick Walker, Topeka, Kan, Dear Sir: The silver club of Canton, about which you write, is composed of Populists and Democrats and the leading Democrats of the city are not dn 1t. The ex-Republican men tioned as president, Col. Holloway, was one of the most enthusiastic Mo Kinley men in the city and during the jollification meeting here after the St. Louis convention, rode at the head of each procession escorting the vari- ous delegations to Governor McKin- ley's house. He was an aspirant for chief marshal of the escort club, but failed of election. Immediately after wards he turned over to the opposi- tion club it's organization. 1t was only claimed. to have a membership of 200 to 250 upon statements of it's officials to the reporters of the press associa- tion. When it is remembered that Stark county has population of near ly 100000 and this city nearly 10000, the magnitude of the club does not appear very grtat Comparatively speaking the sound money non-par- tisan railroad club of this city, con- posed largely of Dem ocrats, as we'll as Republicans, signed 300 members the night of the organization. The same night the Mckinley marching club was organized with 1000 members. A poll of the precinct that Major. Mckinley has lived in since his return from Co., lumbus which has always been Dem ocratic precinct, over $40 votes boiled showed Mckinley 190, Bryan 15O A Republican gain over the combined Bryan vote including the Populists and Democrats of seventy-four in z single precinct.
 '"The precinct in which Major Nc. Kinley lived before he went to Colum bus is two to one for Mckinley. The opinion prevails here, and circum stances justify it, that the organization of Bryan silver club here the weel before MT. Bryan was advertised tt pass through this city, Mckinley! home, was part and parcel of a pre- meditated programme on the part O the National Bryan managers to mak, it appear that there was a large de lection at McKinleys home, it bein. an effort to counteract polls at Lin coin, Neb., MT.
