THEY WANT RECIPROCITY
COMMITTEE RECEIVES MANY RE-
QUESTS FOR RE-ENACTMENT.
Important Letter From President
Search of the National Asso-
citation of Farmers.

Washington. March 22.-Letters from
persons interested III the re-enactment
of reciprocity laws continue to be re-
ceived by the subcommittee of the
ways and means committee on recip-
rocity and commercial treaties.
communication from the National
Association of Farmers signed by it's
president, II. c. Search of Philadelphia,
is considered by the committee one Of
the most important that has yet come
10 hand. Speaking for the interests rep
resented by the association, Mr.. Search
says he desires to present arguments
bearing upon the advantages of recip-
rocity as a general principle in inter-
national trade.
MY view of this NATTER he says, "is
taken from a purely business stand
point, without regard to any political
considerations, for there is probably
no feature of our tariff system, past or
present, that comes so near as recip
rocity to being purely business mat
ter. To this fact may be attributed the
enthusiastic support which the princi-
pies of reciprocity have received from
men of widely differing political views.
He refers to what he regards We're
the benefits derived from the act of
1890 and saws that 1t REQUIRES but a
glance at the conditions under which
the treaties of commercial reciprocity
were negotiated to reveal how much
was gained by this country. and how
little was given in return.
1T is in our dealings with Cuba, -
saws President Search, that the BEN
efits of reciprocity have been most
strikingly shown. Sugar, which formed
the largest item in our imports from
Cuba, was placed upon the free list
conditionally upon the reasonable treat
ment of American products in those
countries from which sugar was I'M
ported into the United States. Under
normal trade conditions Cuba would
have looked to the United States for her
supply of breadstuffs. ETC., but in order
to control the trade of her West India
colonies. Spain imposed a duty of near

SUPPORTS THE NILE EXPEDITION
German Newspapers Side With En-
R1uud.

Berlin. March 2l.-A conflict between
the bundesrath, reichstag, Count Won
Posadowski, secretary of the imperial
treasury, and DR.. MIGUEL, Prussian min
lister of finance, has arisen out of the
motion of DR.. Lieber, the clerical party
leader, to set aside half the imperial
surplus for 1S96-97, in order to pay off
that much of the national debt which
has arisen from nothing in 1876 to o.
900, 900, 900 of marks. Count Won Posa-
dowski approved of the proposition,
thinking the opportunity favorable, as
the imperial budget now shows a steady
surplus of 26.000.000 marks. But the
bundesrath opposes the matter because
the surplus now goes to the treasurers
of the different states and DR.. MIGUEL
opposes 1t because he is jealous of Count
Posadowskis growing influence in fin
ances' and the reichstag and he also
brought the emperor to his views. The
riechstag, however, adopted Lieber's $
motion today by large majority. and il
is thought there may be trouble all
| around.

Harry Somers, painters, were employed

working from the bottom to the top
using a circular scaffolding. Yesterday
afternoon while Somers and Ford were
giving the finishing touches to the spire
thunder storm came up, accompanied
by fierce flashes of lightning.
The two painters were seen making
efforts to lower the scaffold, when there
was terrific clap of thunder and a
binding flash OF lightning left the
clouds, struck the spire, knocking away
the scaffolding. splitting the spire and
leaving Somers and Ford pinned to the
roof dead
TO add to the awful scene the clothing
of the two men was ignited by the
flash. and for 10 minutes the bodies were
seen burning and smoking in mid air.
The heavy rain finally extinguished the
flames, and three hours later the re
mains of the painters were brought
from the steeple charred and inciner-
ated and almost unrecognizable.

FATAL RIOT AT INDIANAPOLIS
Three Men Killed nnd "a Number
Injured.

Indianapolis, March 21.-A riot broke
out tonight between the non-union men
employed in the iron works of Chandler
& Taylor and a number of strikers and
their sympathlzers. Three men, VIII
liam Watson. Walker Davis and Hook
Lee, were shot, Davis fatally, and
number were more or less injured by
flying stones and bricks.
The trouble originated over the fact
that number of non-union men are
employed in the works, taking the plac-
es of the members of the union To-
night the officers started to take them
to their homes, when they were set
upon by the mob. 1t is estimated that
no less than 5000 persons were in the
neighborhood at the time, many of
them taking part in the fight The nom
union men opened fire first, after they
had been pelted with bricks and stones
The fire was returned by the strikers.
The men shot were bystanders and had
nothing whatever to do with the trou-
BILE. One policeman was seriously in
jured by being struck with a brick. A
number of arrests We're made.

SPAIN MIGHT TAKE oFFENsE
Army Officers Denied the Right to
visit Cuba and Look On.

Washington, d. c., March 22.-Every
care is being taken to avoid possible
complications with the Spanish gov
ernment. Several army officers who
have recently applied for leave of alb
sence with permission to take a jour
ney to Cuba and the West Indies, have
been refused for the reason that such
permission might be misconstrued by
Spain. These officers had no desire 20
participate in the hcstilities in Cuba
but merely desired to look on for their
own information.
Secretary Lamont has, however, de-
cided that it is the best policy for all
army officers to keep entirely away

rpAno's WORLDS FAIR MONEY
Ex-Commissioner Wells Replies to
the Governor.

Boise. March 21.-Ex-World's Fair
Commissioner Wells has made a reply
t. the governor respecting the dividends
received from the defunct Columbian
bank at Chicago upon the claim of
S1543:59, the state money that he had on
deposit at the time of the
failure. The salient features of his
statement are that the first dividend,
s3S5.9O, was accounted for in his final
settlement with the state, and that the
next dividend, $46S.0S was paid to Sen
ator Shoup, under the authority of the
state board, on account of the $1,000 ad-
vanced to the commissioner during the
worlds fair year. Captain Wells prints
the letter of authority given him by the
state board for the payment of this
s463.0S. 1t is dated June 1S, 1894, and is
