BEET SUGAR FACTORIES.

xonsul Muth Gives Pointers to Americana
Contemplating Their Erection.
n WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-Consul Mrth
Of Magdeburg, Gerlnana has sent a re-
rort to the state department concerning
Esites for beet sugar factories. The re-
fport is considered especially interesting
ION account Of the prospects Of increased
beet sugar production in this country.
+ The consul says:
Il Factories should be erected only in
localities where it has been demonstrated
Beyond doubt that sugar beets can be
fgrown successfully. 1t is not necessary
Ito plant large areas; small patches here
.and there will answer for experimental
Durposes, and in this way large dis.
hict can be covered without obtaining
M accumulation Of beets. The factory
Rlust be easily accessible to the farmers
Ind should, therefore, be situated in the
heart OF the district from which it
1raws its beets. AL material needed in
2he manufacture should either be close
It hand or easily procurable.
"Besides beets the principal materials
keeded to run sugar factory are water,
uel and hmestone; water to wash the
Seets and limestone for the publication

Policy of the Administration VIII Be to
Hold to the Present Status.
CHICAGO, Aug 2.-The Washington
special to The Times.Herald says:
There is reason to believe the Mckinley
administration will not follow the pol
icy Of President Cleveland in the aban-
donment of the rights of this country
in Samoa. In discussing the Samoan
question few days before his departure
for Lake Champlain, the president said
the annexation of Hawaii by the United
States and the proposed construction of
the Nicaragua canal under the
control of this government had
placed value on Samoa which the
country could i'll afford to lose. Its
location is such that it is directly be-
tween Australia and Nicaragua, and it's
value as way station for vessels pro-
ceeding to Australia from Honolulu, or
from the proposed Nicaraguan canal,
will be great. For these reasons Presi.
dent Mckinley will not attempt to carry
out the policy favored by Mr.. Cleveland
looking to the abrogation Of the treaty
entered into between Great Britain,
Germany and the United States in
1889, which gave the signatory powers
equal rights in the government OF

SHIPMENTS PHENOMENAL.

Great Business Being Done in Minnesota
Iron Mines.
DULUTH, Mimi, Aug. 1t is now
estimated that over 9,2JO,OO0 tons Of
iron ore have been sold this season,
more than the output of any year ex-
cept one. This represents a value to
the buyers of not far from $4,000, 900.
From Minnesota about $4,000 tons OF
ore are going forward daily, a move
ment never approached in the history
Of the trade. On Saturday and Satur.
day night last, at the docks of the Du-
luth and Iron Range road, 1900 cars,
or Al 600 tons of ore, were received.
The road has total ore car equipment
of 1900 cars.
About $4,000 gross tons is the record
of the Minnesota Iron company for
mining and shipping in June and July,
far surprising the best record ever
made by any mining company. The
steam shovels Of the company, at its
hard ore stockpiles on the Vermillion
range, are working day, night and
Sundays, sending out about 10000 tons
from that range weekly.

Comment Of the st. James Gazette on the

LONDON, Aug. 2.-The St. James Ga
zette, referring to the forthcoming in
ternational conference on the sealing
question, says:
The Americans will consider the con-
ference another climb down for the
British, and, not unnaturally, Mr..
Sherman's dispatch will be regarded as
the direct cause.
The United States make a quite un.
warrantable demand. We ignore it,
Then the American state department
sends O menacing and insulting dis
patch. We promptly yield. 1t is the

message once again.
And once again it will confirm the
American political mind in the convic-
ton that John Bull always knuckles
down when bullied and threatened.
Our statesmen are preparing future dis.
asters for both countries by carelessly
encouraging this dangerous delusion.

New YORK, Aug. 2. - Bradstreets
says: The unprecedently early fall de.
mand for staple merchandise, which
Bradstreets announced last week, has
increased and although not conspicuous
at some Of the larger Eastern cities
which it is approaching, it is notably so
at points in the Mississippi and Missouri
valleys and large wheat growing states.
A special investigation by Bradstreets
this week shows that increased pur-
chases by country merchants in the re.
gion specified, based on the prospec-
lively large wheat crop at home in the
face of short wheat crops abroad, has
increased business with Western job.
bers from 10 to Is per cent compared
with fall trade at like period last
year. The total volume of this new
business is not large but it is unusual
in this, the dull month Of the year, and
it is growing.
Unable to Fiji Orders.
A number Of Western implement fac.
tories are unable to fill all their orders
for nearby delivery and one order for
shoes alone at St. Louis calls for s35, 900
worth of goods. The depression among
woolen manufacturers is less pro.
nounced because prices Of cheviots and
other woolens have begun to advance,
pointing to profit in handling high
price wool. The greatest relative i'm.
provement among the jobbers and
wholesalers in various lines is at Chi.

st. Paul and Minneapolis, although at
other points, notably in Texas, there is
pronounced feeling of confidence in
an early revival Of demand which is al.
ready beginning to show itself. a

Judge Cochran of Missouri Says
They Will Insist on a Brush
With Us,
Not Because of Questions In
volved but Because They
Want a Fight.
Special Session of Congress Pre-
dicted Before the End Of
September.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-Judge Cochs
ran of the Fourth Missouri district
makes the most startling proposition
yet advanced. In conversation with
some friends he said:
'There will be a special session Of
congress by the end of September.
What for? Because we have to fight
Japan. The japanese mean to fight us,
and are ready to do it now. I know
what l am talking about. though am
not at liberty to give my source Of in.
formation. But you mark my words,
the president will be compelled to call
another special session, to prepare for
war;
Judge Cochran positively refused to
make any further statement on the
subject, but reiterated his belief that
war with Japan is inevitable.
Distinctly Different Propa91lleps.
When the state departme ecials
were informed that jar ~ 4ne
cepted Hawaii's offer of arb =
secretary of the japanese legsl -
was informed that until the anne
treaty was concluded the United Stdse
would not assume any authority in the
matter, and that the present dispute
must be considered as between Japan
and Hawaii.
The secretary in reply said he was
glad to learn that such was the position
of the United States, as it would permit
Japan sending two or three warships to
Hawaii pending final action in the arbi-
t1ation treaty.
lhls Interpretation Of the situation
rather surprised the state department
officials, who answered that the United
States would consider in o different
light an agreement of arbitration and
the sending of warship, and intimated
that non.interference by the United
States in one case could not be con.
strued as passive acceptance of the lat
ter position.
