Hot Springs weekly star. (Hot Springs, S.D.) 1892-1917, 1896-12-04


Thanksgiving day passed off very
quietly in Hot Springs. Business
generally was suspended but the cold,
stormy weather kept everyone indoors.
Union services were held at the college
chapel but we're not largely attended
owing to the inclement weather. Rev.
Fawellpreached a splendid sermon. The
dance at the city hall i'll the evening
was greatly enjoyed by the few who had
the nerve to face the wintry blast. The
residents of Hot Springs, however, had
reason to be doubly thankful for their
escape from the terrible storm that
ragged all over the prairie regions of the
western states. A mail agent on the
Great Northern road near DEVILS
Lake, N. d., perished in the storm. He
was on the west-bouud train which was
stalled out of DEVILS Lake Thursday
evening and walked in to restaurant
at Devils Lake, obtained us big sup
ply of provisions as he could carry and
started back for his train. He never
reached it. John Hoey, a farmer living
four miles from Park River, n. ID
started from his house to his barn
Thursday night and his body was found
two miles away on the prairie the next
dag. A coat of ice covers the ground
and snow in some places is piled in
drifts twelve feet high. On the ranges
west of the Missouri it is thought that
many cattle aud sheep have perished.
At Vermillion there is hardly a tree
standing and it is feared that every
orchard is ruined. In many instances
trees foot in diameter were snapped
off at the bottom. Every telegraph and
electric light wire in that town was
! prostrated. The storm in the vicinity
of Aberdeen has not been paralleled
since the great blizzard of January IL.
1885, Drifts i'll the streets of Aber-
deem and on the railroad tracks in all
eastern South Dakota towns are five
to six feet deep. The Black Hills
country was comparatively free from
destructive storms and no serious
damage has been reported.

vigor.

Politics in Multnomah county this
year promises to be the sole occupation
of its citizens. Already the clouds are
gathering which portend storm that
will stir things from bottom to top. Jim
Lotan, once the idol of a fawning fac
ton, and later defendant in the United
States court on the charge of smuggling,
is preparing to take hand and do what
he can to discomft his old rival, Simon.
In the fight of the inns and outs all
questions of public good will probably
be forgotten. Portland is suffering from
an attack of too much politics.

WOMAN SUFFRAGISTS.
The "Woman's Bible" Came Up Again
for Discussion-Plan for '96.

Washington, Jan. 25.-At today's meet
ing of the Nation American Suffrage as,
ISOLATION the executive committee consiG
cred the trouble over the so-called "Wom
ans Bible" and it was agreed that tn,
question was a personal one over which
the general organization could take no
cognizance.
The report of the committee on organi-
cation was submitted by Mrs. Carrie
Chapman. Fourteen persons have served
as organizers during the year, $50 meet
ings held, and aid in organization given
to 81 States. The report made strong
plea for the observance of Elizabeth Gray
Stanton's birthday as a fitting occasion
for the diffusion of suffrage sentiment.
The plan of work for 1896 was pre-
sented at this afternoons session. Miss
Anthony, the president, made an address
urging women to watch all political pro-
ceedings and to secure from candidates
for office pledges to support woman suf-
frage. She commented on the influence
of women at the polls in Kentucky, New
York and elsewhere. The latter part of
the session was devoted to a parliament
of methods. H..
The session tonight was devoted to
review of field work in the various States

and the evidence accumulated that the
arrivals at ports are being drawn from
the stocks at interior towns to a great
extent rather than from plantations. For
instance, the stocks at five of the prin-
cipal interior towns have thus far this
week lost less than 1000 bales. This
is decidedly significant and tends to con-
firm the theory that the great bulk of
the crop has been marketed, that little
remains in the country and that most of
the farmers supplies have been forward
ed to the interior towns for better stor-
age, insurance and banking facilities.
Some now think that the quantity to be
brought into sight this week will be about
the same as in the same week of 1893,
when the crop was 6,117 600 bales. The
prices declined here , to points early
in sympathy with the same decline in
Liverpool, but the local market was evil
IDENTITY oversold and the early recession
was therefore speedily recovered and an
advance of to 6 points followed. The
closing prices were 3 to points higher
for the day, with the tone quiet; sales,
142, 200 bales. Liverpool was buying to
some extent, and this and the small re-
ceipts and local covering was too much
for the bears.
The stock market was higher, and
British consols advanced.
AS rule, cotton is firmly held at the
South
Fall River, though quiet, is firm Liv-
erpool declined 1-32d on the spot, with
sales of 10000 bales. Futures declined
1 1-202 points.
The next crop showed the most weak
ness, but the close was generally steady.
New Orleans declined l point, but
regained it and advanced 6 to points
Port receipts today were 2O,S96 bales,
against "a, 693 bales week ago, 34,3S4
bales last year and 22,75S bales in 1894.
Thus far this week they are 81 238 bales,
against 56,303 bales last week. Spot cot
ton here was dull and unchanged.
Norfolk and Augusta declined 1-16c.
New Orleans sold 1000 bales, st. Louis
1884 bales, Savannah 715 bales, Mobile
400 bales and New York 104 bales.
In Manchester yarns were dull and ir-
regular and closed quiet.
Augusta received today 466 bales,
against 462 last week and GIT last year.
Memphis, l25, against $50 and III bales.
st. Louis, 552 bales, against 773 and 81
bales; Houston 1899 bales, against 5475
and 1881 bales. Houston expects tomOr-.
row 1900 to 1000, against 4755 bales last
year. New Orleans expects $500 to 5000
bales, against 1896 bales last week, 1866
last year and 14,517 in 1894. Memphis
shipped today 3017 bales, st. Louis 100
bales, Houston 1903 bales. We still re-
gard the situation as strong and there
fore recommend purchases on the set
backs.

London, Jan. 27.-The Daily News this
morning prints dispatch from Vienna
which asserts that news has been re-
ceived there from Constantinople and
Sebastapool which agrees that Russia has
fleet lying at Sebastapool and at Odes-
So and that the Caucasian armies of Rus
STA are being concentrated upon the Ar
menian frontier in readiness to move
next spring to realize the plans of Peter
the Great for the partition of Turkey
between the powers Russia taking Ar
menia and Constantinople, France taking
Syria and Palestine and England taking
Egypt and the eastern shores of the Per-
sian gulf, the remainder of the Turkish
empire to be divided among the other
powers.
The Daily News has dispatch from
Sebastapool which records that secret
preparations are going forward there for
shipping ornaments of a volunteer fleet.
1t is the general belief there, this dis
patch asserts, that the preparations fore
shadow some action in the spring.

DENOTTNCED RY TERREIL

Boston, Jan. 27.-The American board
received the following telegram from Con-
stantinople, by way of Phllipolis, this
morning:
Turkey refuses Barnum leave to go to
Erzroum to engage in relief work for
Armenians, saying that missionaries have
proven disturbers This is punishment
without trial. United State Minister
Terrell denounces the charge as cal
umny."
The Rev. Judson Smith, secretary of
the American board here, states that the
Barnum referred TO is Rev. ii. S. Bar
mum of Constantinople and that the
charge is absolutely without foundation,
as all missionaries have kept themselves
free. from all political complications in
Turkey.

THINKS CHARLES IS ALIVE

Cincinnati, O., Jan. 26.-Charles De-
garm0, who was reported killed recently
at johannesburg, Transvaal in one of
the battles, used to live in Covington,
Ky. His brother, S. d. Degarmo, teller
of the Northern bank of Covington, does
not believe he was killed. His reason
for this disbelief is that he received a
letter from Charles p. Degarmo dated
December 8, 1895. dated Delagoa Bay,
announcing the intention of the latter
to sail for Europe at once to spend the
winter in Cairo.
Chas. DegarmO was the originator of
the card advertising in street cars and
was a leader in the pure food movement
in the United States.

A GOOD SUGGESTION

London. Jan. 2S.-The Chronicle this
morning has an editorial which recalls
the subject of President Jefferson sending
a fleet to Algiers and advocates asking
the great powers formally to invite the
United States to send fleet to Turkey.
The motive of this display would suffice
to bring the sultan to his senses. If,
however, action were needed, the Chron-
icle urges that the British fleet should CO.
Onorate.

GRAIN AND PROVISION.
CHICAGO.

Chicago, Jan. 2S-Traders are still ap-
prehensive of Armour and the uncer-
tainty regarding his position caused an
unsettled and weaker feeling Wheat
finally closed Use lower. All the other
markets followed the downward trend
of wheat.
Corn and oats closed 1-4c lower each,
and pork lard and ribs all show material
declines. Wheat averaged weaker and
the trade was slack; few of the big OPP
orators were doing much and what they
did was on both sides of the market.
The general feeling of uncertainty caus-
ed many to leave the market entirely
alone. 1t was to all intents and pur-
poses a waiting market. But with all
the inaction the market kept nervous and
sensitive and the trend was closely
watched and quick turns were made

ably of the break here yesterday, and

Oats were slow and inclined to weak

Provisions acted in a very contrary and
