FRANCE IS WARNED.

England Would Like Peace but IL Pre-
. pared to Fight for Afr. can Possessions.
LONDON, Nov. 1l.-At the lord
mayors banquet last evening the Mar.
quis of Salisbury spoke at some length
on foreign affairs. After referring to
the conduct of the troops on the Indian
frontier and warmly praising the con.
Duct of the Anglo Egyptian expedition
in the Soudan campaign, the premier
came to the leading passage in his
speech, introducing the tangled ques-
ton of the Niger and the conflicting
claims and interests of Great Britain
and France in that section Of West
Africa. He said:
lit might not achieve the general
conciliatory process desired if I entered
frankly into all the negotiations be-
tween the powers respecting Africa.
We are all aware of the great extent of
territory cast loose during the last 20
years in Africa, and put up as the OBJ
ject of acquisition for
Several Enterpris ng Governors.
The negotiations that are proceeding
will possibly continue a long time. We
desire that territory to be governed on
strict principles Of right and with a
constant regard to its prosperity and to
the interests of the empire. We do not
desire un just and illegitimate achieve.
ments, and we do not wish to take ter.
ritory simply because it would look we'll
to paint red on the maps. Our objects
are strictly business. We wish to ex.
tend commerce., trade, industry and
civilization; to throw open as many
markets as possible, and to bring to.
gether as many consumers and produc-
ers as possible, and to open the great
natural highways and waterways of
the continent. We wish trade to pur.
sue an unchecked course on the Niger.
the Nile and the Zambesi and, in doing
these things, while we wish to
Eehavei in a Neighborly Manner
and to show due consideration to the
feelings and claims of others, we are
obliged to say that there is a limit to
the exercise Of this particular set Of
feelings and we II allow our plain
rights to be overridden."
In concluding his speech, Lord Sails.
bury said: Zone hope we have of pre-.
venting the competition of ornaments
among European powers ending in a
terrible effort for mutual destruction,
fatal to civilization. is that the powers
may gradually be brought to act to-
gether in a friendly spirit as to all
ques.-ons that may arise until at last

TURNED UP BY A PLOW.f

Body of August Tr"mer, Murdered Three
Years Ago, IL Found.
FARGO, N. D., Nov. i.-Great ex-
element was created at Lamoure by
the finding of the body of August
Tromer, a German farmer, who mys-
teriously disappeared in October, 1894.
The corpse was turned up by a pillow.
On Nov. +, 1894, Mrs. Tromer was as.
saulted, beaten into insensibility and
thrown into a we'll by M. J. Villers,
a we'll known farmer in that section.
Mrs. Tromer crawled out of the we'll
and concealed herself and children in q
barn till morning, when she dragged
herself to the home of a neighbor. Vii.
lers was convicted of the crime and
sent to the penitentiary. where he is

Claimed the President Has No Right to
Stop Filibustering.
New YORK, Nov. 1.-THE Journals
Washington special says: It is CON
tended here by prominent lawyers that
the Spanish government has an entirely
erroneous idea about the power of the
executive department to prevent ilibus.
tering, and that the executive depart.
ment is now violating the law in at
tempting to be agreeable to the Spanish
government, in the matter Of stopping
vessels loaded with arms bound for
Cuba.
It is also commended that both the
present and the Cleveland administra.
tons have willfully misled the general
public as to the law relating to the TAX
ing of munitions of war to Cuba. The
law, as laid down by these lawyers, is:
Spain has a treaty with the United
States by which each country agrees
not to assist an enemy of the other.
The Spanish government through it's
representative has officially informed
the United States government there ia
no war in Cuba; that the Cubans are
simply violating the municipal law Of
Spain and the Spanish government is
e~ndeavoring to enforce that law and
punish violators; that, in view of this,
the United States government is bound
to accept the statement Of Spain, with
which it has a treaty, as being a cor
rect status of affairs in Cuba. There.
fore, accor ling to law, there being nc
war in Cuba, it is violating no law fo1
American citizens to send munitions OF
war to the Cubans, with whom Spain
declares il is not at war, and to sell the
same to them.
Justice Story took this view in 1915
in ~condemning the action of Presiden,
Monroe in the seizure of the American
Eagle which was being fitted out for
the service of one faction Of the Santc
Domingo revolution.

Not a Line in Sagasta's Reply
That Could Offend This
Cove nment.
Accepts Our Good Offices in an
Effort to Restore Peace
in Cuba.
The Document Said to Have Made
a Distinctly Favorable
Impression.

WASHINGTON, Nov. lit is stated
on good authority that Premier sagas.
ta's reply to Minister Woodford's note,
the full text of which was read at the
cabinet meeting, is eminently satisfac-
tory to this government. In it the
Spanish ministry pledges itself to cor.
rect the abuses of power in Cuba which
was the subject of so much' complaint
during the Weyler administration, and
gives assurance of its friendly feeling
toward the American people. 1t &C
cepts our good offices in an effort to re-
store peace in Cuba, and in a perfectly
respectful and friendly spirit asks this
government, so far as possible, to re.
strain the insurgent sympathizers in
the United States from giving material
aid to the enemies of Spain in Cuba.
The reply intimates that but for the
assistance that has been given them by
ilibusters from the United States peace
would have been restored long ago.
No Unfriendly Sentence.
The reply, it is stated, does not con-
tain a sentence that could give offense
Or be construed into an expression of an
u~nfriendly purpose or feeling against
the government Of the United States.
On the contrary the note is stated to be
distinctly conciliatory in tone, although
insisting upon the right and duty Of
Spain to put down an armed insurrec-
ton within its own territory. 1t is
evident that the reply has made a
favorable impression upon President
Mckinley and the members of the cab
met and it is not unlikely that one of
the features of his forthcoming message
to congress will be a discussion of the
Cuban situation from which it will ap.
pear that there is nothing in the situa-
ton to justify present interference on
the part Of the United States.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

OF the list of the many so-called incura-
bic disorders none has proved to be more OF
an enigma to the most learned and accom-
plished physicians than lOcom0tOr atax1a, or
as it is more commonly known, creeping
paralysis. This dread disease has baffled
their skill, and they have been forced to
admit that they cannot successfully cope
with it. All they have been able to do is
to mitigate the accompanying pain and sui
fering beyond this the science of medicine
has been of little or no avail to the many
unfortunates who have contracted the dread
full malady, which, many people, especially
those who are thus afflicted, believe is a fore
runner of the grim messenger of death.
Thomas P. Bigg, who lives at No. 1913
St. Clair Street, corner of Lawrence ST.,
Cleveland o., has been suffering from loco
motor ataxia for nearly five years, and
nothing but his wonderful vitality has pre-
vented his dissolution long before this.
The malady is directly attributable to his
exposure during army life. He enlisted in
the Third Regiment Ohio Cavalry in Toledo
and served nineteen months in the volun-
teer service, and after the close of the rebel
lion, eighteen months in the regular army.

ence "my stomach went back on me, and for
six weeks / was laid up in hospital in
Texas. Ever since that time that organ has
caused me trouble, and about seven years ago
the doctor told me was suffering from acute
indigestion That was bad enough, but four
years ago last July paralysis came on, and I
have been using these crutches ever since.
The paralysis was in my legs, and it came
rather suddenly l noticed at first that my
knees were a little stiff, sort of rheumatic

into paralysis"

He says she appeared at about 4:45

at the west side door. He adds to the
published description of her clothing
the fact that she wore a small bonnet
with yelling over the top of it. The
yelling and The clothing were slightly
