NEW SPANISH MINISTER.
Responsible Post offered to Ex-GOv-

WASHINGTON, June 9.-The presi-
dent has offered the post of minister
to Spain to ex-Gov. Jacob D. Cox, of
OHIO. Whether or not he will accept
is not known. Gen. Cox is an old
personal friend of the president, and
one in whom Mr.. Mckinley has a great
deal Of confidence
Cincinnati. June 9-Gen. Jacob d.
Cox. Of this city, who has been men,
toned as having been offered the mis-
sion to Spain, is just about to leave
the city for his annual summer rest.
when spoken to regarding the pro-
posed offer, Gen. Cox said there was
no official action in the matter, and
he made no suggestions whatever con-
corning 1t. He had no ambition in
that direction, and was rather inclined
to the opinion that the appointment
would not be made. Gen. Cox has
been prominent here for a number Of
years in educational circles, and was
dean of the law school of the Cincin-
natl college. AS ex-governor of Ohio
and ex-secretary of the interior he has
been widely known, While his military
record is among the most brilliant Of
living officers.
CINCINNATI, O., June "A Com

going to accept the offer Of appoint2
ment of minister from the United

object to gain the confidence Of the two men
under suspicion. The latter started out from
their headquarters, saloon at Washington
avenue and Seventh avenue south, and, fol-
lowed by the two officers, went to a saloon
at First avenue south and First street. Oficer
Lindquist was introduced to Borren as the pro-
prietor of blind pig" and a prospective
buyer OF whisky. Borren, 1t is said, offered
to sell a quantity, and took Lindquist to a
room in the saloon on Seventh avenue south.
Here, the officers claim, he prepared con-
coction from a number of bottles and pro-
duced what was pronounced as fine whisky
as ever was made. LindQuist was delighted
apparently and bought the recipe from Borren,
when Officer Norbeck stepped in and the two
men were arrested. They are held at the
county jail, having been turned over to the
United States authorities.
The police are of the opinion that these men
are cracks of more than ordinary ability.
Borren is the manufacturer of the so-called
whisky and Mitchell has been acting as their
agent. The officers say that the men came
here to do the town during circus week,
and the men are said 10 have been operating
in st. Paul, selling their whisky at 10 cents a
glass. The pair hail from Buffalo, N. Y. Two
satches filled with drugs were found in their
possession. The method by which they made

Down the Per Capita.
The first day OF the fortieth annual session
of the grand lodge of Good Templars of Min
nesota was productive of a very warm con-
troversy which threatens to grow still warmer
before settlement is finally reached. Since
1886 the subordinate lodges OF the state have
paid a quarterly per capita tax to the grand
lodge of 20 cents. Prior to 1886 this tax was
Is cents, and it is to resore it to this figure
that the present war is being waged by the
representatives of some OF the younger sub
ordinate lodges.
The question was raised at the session yes
terday afternoon and was discussed until ad-
journment was taken, shortly after o'clock
last night Those who wish the tax reduced
base their arguments upon the general hard
times. Those who are fighting for the reten-
tion of the present tax argue that the add add
tional cents now paid makes very little
difference with the majority of the lodges.
1t is only the larger lodges, who have mem
bership of so or 100, and whose quarterly tax
therefore amounts to SIG or $40, who feel the
effects of the additional tax amount, and as
these lodges are willing that change should
be made the smaller ones should be satisfied.
This is the view of those who are on the de-
fensive in the discussion. The matter will be
brought up again this morning, and 1t is
probable that it will be settled one way or
the other during todays session.
The attendance at the convention was large,
over 100 delegates being present. The grand
lodge degree was conferred upon twenty
nine candidates.

LUTHERAN FREE CHURCH.
Outcome of the Augsburg Troubles
convention at Work.

The Lutheran Free church convention
! opened at Trinity church. Twentieth avenue
south and Franklin, yesterday with 200 dele
gates present. Up to this time this particular
faction of the Norwegian Lutheran church has
been known as the Augsburg conference but
as a radical change will undoubtedly be in
augura ed the name of Free church has been
proposed, and viii N all likelihood be adopted
before the convention adjourns.
The movement is the direct result of The
split in the United church. which has occa-
stoned much litigation over Augsburg SEM
mary, and the outcome of which is still a
court problem.
When President George Sverdrup called the
convention to order yesterday morning, the
large audi orium was nearly filed by minis
tiers and laymen from ali over the Northwest.

preliminary business, and the following COM

morning the probable result of the election
Of a synodical president was taken up in dis
cussion. While there is no apparent rivalry
the advocates of the different candidates are
strongly urging the election of their men.
The Rev. NJ. w. HANNA, of Altoona, Pa, was
the first candidate to arrive. He refused to
discuss the probabilities of his election. The
strength of the candidacy of Rev. DR.. NJ.
Rhodes of St. Louis, was increased this morn
ing by the arrival Of more delegates, and he
was freely spoken of as "a most formidable
candidate Secretary Rev. DR.. Frem, OF
York, Pa, has announced by letter that he
will not be a candidate for reelection, which
virtually insures the election of Rev. Dr..
W. H. Dunbar of Baltimore, Md, who is so
far the only candidate for the office The
work to be done by the synod will be simply
