ELSEWHERE this morning ap-
pears a circular letter issued by
the Mutual Reserve Fund Life
Association of New York, ad-
dressed to managers and agents
of the association. As will be
seen by reference thereto it
treats the financial or silver
problem in a very different
light from the attitude taken by
the old line companies. The
Mutual Reserve is to be COM
mended for its refusal to be
made a party to a scheme of
cOercing its policy holders to
vote for the advocates of the
single gold standard. The SEN
timent as expressed in this
letter should bring this associ-
alton in popular touch with the
people who want safe insurance
as an investment to themselves
as well as to the company car
rying their risk.

THE message of Gov. Harris
to the Chickasaw legislature,
now in session at Tishomingo,
appears for the first time in
print in this mornings ARD
MOREITE. 1t is an honest, out
spoken document, and contains
many suggestions worthy of a
careful consideration at the
hands of the people to whom it
is addressed. On the subject
of treating with the Dawes
Commission, the governor re-
cognizes the fact that a change
of conditions is inevitable and
to the end of proper protection
recommends the appointment
of a commission to meet and
confer with that body. All in
all it is the best and most pro-
gressive message ever handed
down from a chief executive of
this nation of the Indian Terri
tory.

FUSION between democrats

principle.

Chamberlain's Hit.

LONDON, Eng, Jan. 27.-The
newspapers this afternoon dis
cussed the speech which the secre-
tary of state for the colonies, Mr..
Jos. Chamberlain, delivered at
Birmingham Saturday evening,
particularly dwelling upon his
references to the United States and
generally praising them.
The st. James Gazette heads its
article, "Why come over and help
u.s." and says, "President Cleve-
lands government has very good
ground for calling upon the sultan
for satisfaction. If it acts by it.
self it is likely to be paralyzed by
European concert, but If it agrees
to cooperate heartily with us the
situation will be improved. If the
people of the United States are
really eager to advance the cause
of civilization and good order, they
can do so much more effectually
than by encouraging Venezuela to
defy u.s."
The Westminster Gazette re-
marks: "Mr. Chamberlain's en-
thusiastic adoption of the idea of
American aid for Armenia, even if
it is literal realization, will not
come about. 1t will nevertheless
do much good in other ways, and
in the long run his speech is the
best piece of news for the oppressed
Armenians that we have heard for
a long time"

Captured a Crook and Some Swag.

New YORK, Jan. 27.-Acting
Capt. O'Brien, Of the detective
bureau, has in his custody at po-
lice headquarters a man who gives
his name as Andrew Anderson,
and is believed TO be a Chicago
crook. The detectives have recov-
cred quantity OF valuable silver
ware, clothing and bric-s-brac
found in the mans possession.
Some Of the stuff has been identi-
fed as part OF that stolen recently
from the home of Thomas F. Cakes,
at Mammereneck, and James l.
Kernchan, at Hampstead, Long
Island. The prisoner is a smooth
faced man of middle age, whom the
detectives of this city do not know.
Some of the plate is past identifi-
cation for it has been melted down
and been recovered in the shape of
Jumps Of raw silver.
The whole of the goods recovered
forms less than a tenth part of the
proceeds OF the robberies in which
1t was obtained. The rest of the
plumber is supposed to be hidden
somewhere in the woods, near
Homestead. The police are look
ing for it and Anderson's confeder-
ate. From the fact that number
OF Communication tickets on the
Illinois Central railroad to the sub.
urbs Of Chicago were found in his
possession the police believe that
Anderson is well known in that
city, and have forwarded in his
photograph to the Chicago police
with an inquiry as to his record.

ROCKEFELLER SUED.
a Million Involved and Verdict Already
Against Him For Nearly
That Amount


ST. LOUIS, Jan. 27.-Today, in
the United States Court of Appeals,
Judge Caldwell, of Arkansas,
Thayer, of st. Louis, and Sanborn,
of Minnesota, sitting, arguments
were begun in the greatest case, in
some respects, that has ever been
before the courts of this country.
j. d. Rockefeller, president OF the
Standard Oil company, is the de-
PENDANT. The amount involved is
approximately $1,000,000. In the
trial of the case at Duluth before
Judge Rines and a jury, a verdict
was given for the plaintiff, Fred.
Merritt, Jr., for 100000.
Mr.. Rockefeller's interests are
represented by Mr.. George w.
Murray, of New York, and asso-
ciates. The plaintiff is represented
by A. A. Harris, of Duluth, and
associates. In August, 1898; the
Merritts, who had the controlling
intel est in some iron mines in st.
Louis county, Minnesota, valued
at $10,S00,000, went. into a deal
with Rockefeller. A company was
formed known as the Lake Supe-
rior Consolidated Mining company.
The Merritts received stock in the
new company, in exchange for
their interests. Merritt, in his
original bill, charges that he and
his partners were inveigled into
the deal by the fraudulent repre-
sensations of Rockefeller as to the
value of the properties he con-
trolled. He alleges that Rockefel-
Ter represented his mines to be in
a prosperous, dividend paying con-
dition, whereas the contrary was
the case; that while Rockefeller
agreed to a valuation of $l0,S00, 900
on the Merritt properties, they
were really worth between $4,000
600 and $14000,000, and that they
subsequently discovered that while
they yielded their interests for
stock in the consolidated company,
Rockefeller retained for his part
bonds secured by first mortgage
bonds to the valuation of $4,000
600 on the properties to which the
stock held by the Merritts were
subject.

A Deed of Jealousy.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Jan. ga
special from Birmingham, Ala,
says: At Swansea, Blount coun-
ty, yesterday afternoon Frank
Jones, superintendent of the Swan
see coal mine, shot and fatally
wounded his wife, a beautiful
young woman, 20 years Of age.
The couple was at home with their
two small children when,i is said,
they quarreled, Jones being in
sanely jealous of his wife and sus-
pecting her of being untrue to him.
He seized his shot gun and shot her
inthe right breast. Up to late hour
last night he had not been arrest
ed. He is armed and defies the
authorities. Jones heretofore has
stood high socially.

Kansas Politics.

KANSAS CITY, Jan. PA Tope-
ka, Kansas, special to the Times
says: "There has been a good deal
Of newspaper talk lately about a
fusion between the democrats and
populists this year, with George
w. Click as a candidate for gov
ernor. While such a combination
is possible, it is not probable.
Many democratic leaders are OPP
posed to any kind of coalition with
the populists, claiming it would
result disastrously to their organi-
zation, as did the arrangement of
1892. Populist leaders are also
opposed to fusing. Those who are
outspoken for fusion are democrats
and populists who prefer anything
to republicanism. This faction is
greatly in the minority, but is
growing. However, it is the opin-
ion of the Kansas democrats and
populists that there will not be
any fusion on state officers, this
year, and there will be three
straight tickets in the field, as in
1894"

The Guatemala Exposition.

NEW YORK, Jan. ga dispatch
to the World from Guatemala says :
Work has begun on the exposition
which is scheduled to open next
December. President Barrios has
laid the corner stone of the Liberal
Arts building. Outside Of official
circles it is believed that the expo
sition will be a failure, as few
countries have accepted invitations
to join in it and that this country
will expend large sum Of money
without receiving any practical
benefits. Newspapers here are
making comparisons between the
conduct of Barrios and that of the
president of Mexico who withheld
government support from the ex-
position projected there by a pri-
vate corporation, as ours is, until
the projectors could show ability to
fulfill their promise, while Barrios
took no precaution before lending
his support.

Insurgents Burn a Train.

HAVANA, Jan. 27.-The passen-
ger train which came from
Havana to Guanajay, leaving the
latter place at p. m. for a return
trip, was held up last night by in
surgents near San Antonio. The
passengers were ordered to leave
the train. When they had done
so, the rebels burned the cars and
destroyed the locomotive. The
passengers were not harmed but
they were compelled to walk to
San Antonio, one mile distant.
The train had no armored cars be-
cause the company had none ready.
Some are being constructed for
passengers and when they are
finished will be upon all trains,
Then lit Is believed people may
travel over. the line in safety.
