FARM AND GARDEN WORKERS.
How the Pingree Plan Helped the
Poor Last SeasOn-PIans for
This Year.

The regular freight train from
Hutchinson, which reaches this city al
HIS each morning, met with a serious
accident near Hutchinson junction
yesterday morning. Three cars were
derailed and piled in a heap by the
side of the track They were freight
ed with live stock and a number of
the animals were killed. Meager par
ticulars only could be learned of the
accident last night, and the respon-
slbil1ty for its occurrence was not as
certained. In fact it was stated that
the railroad officials were in doubt
themselves as to who was to blame.
There was a well-defined belief, how
ever, that it was caused by the spread
ing OF the rails at that point The
scene of the affair was at a sharp
curve in the road, and it is thought
the recent spring weather resulted in
making the rails less firm than usual
Many narrow escapes have been met
with in that manner this season The
engine passed the point safely. but the
three cars nearest it We're thrown on
their sides. Fortunately none of the
train hands were injured. The over
turning of the cars threw the cattle
about roughly and it was reported that
several had been killed, but the story
could not be confirmed All day long
men were working at the scene of the
accident, being sent to the place on
wrecking train forwarded from ST
Paul. Superintendent Harding person
ally superintended the work At mid
night 1t was stated that the road would
be open TODAY

ON THE PINGREE PLAN.
How Many Families Were Helped
Last Year.

The first business meeting of the season Of
the Farm and Garden association. Of Mime
apolis, was held last evening at the office
Of Mayor Pratt at the city hall. Those pres
ent besides the mayor, who presided and
Secretary r. E. Haskell, included DR.. Will
lam b. Murray, Prof. A. M. Howe, DR.. H.
n. Avery. The report of the registration
committee showed that last year sixty-two
applicants had been supplied with lots and
seeds at an average cost of S2.42. In the
report attention was called TO the fact that
the plan had been entirely satisfactory last
summer, and that the Pingree plan was no
mean factor in aiding families who, without
this help, would have to depend upon re-
ceiving supplies from the city. Considerable
time was consumed in discussing the report
and talking over the plans for the coming
summer. F. B. Snyder DR.. Murray and
Prof Marie L. Sanford were elected to the
board Of directors for the term of three years.
The first two were reelected. Miss Sanford
is new member to succeed William Powell
The next meeting will be held in the mayor
Office April g.
1t is yet too early to tell with exactness
the number of applicants the coming sum-
mer, but it is expected that the number
will exceed that of last year. The greatest
need of, the association at present is more
ground, and vacant property within the city
is solicited.

ments. Mr.. Dingley in reply to a ques-
ton said that nine-tenths Of the amend
mentS offered by the committee yeSter-
day and today had been suggested by
members and offered after investiga-
ton.
Mr.. Richardson asked if the chairman
Of the ways and means committee
would not be kind enough to allow the
minority to "offer just one little amend
ment."
Il presume it is to strike out the
enacting clause" said Mr.. Dingley.
NO" replied Mr.. Richardson, "it is
to strike out the differential on sugar.
We will consider any amendment %
observed Mr.. Dingley. his response
ca using a smile on the Democratic side
Mr.. McMilin followed this up with a
request that the committee now pro-
coed to the consideration of the sugar
schedule. Several Republicans object
ed. I'VE will get to that schedule"
said Mr.. Hopkins, "if you will allow US
to proceed"
'All right" replied Mr.. McMillin.
I'VE will let the reading proceed and
see how sincere you are"
The clerk then resumed the reading OF
the bill where he stopped on Saturday
Before the committee rose, an at
tempt was made to extend the debate
an hour tomorrow, but the Republic
ans refused to agree to this, unless the
Democrats would agree to vote on the
amendments in gross. The Democrats
declined to accede to this condition, and
all negotiations fell through. Mr.
Wheeler tried to secure consent for a
night session. but Mr.. Dingley said IL
would be impossible to obtain a uuor-
UNI. At $40 p. m. the house adjourned.

FATE OF THE DELTA


8 and o'clock. the levee near Stokes
Landing, four miles above Huntington,
on the Mississippi side, gave way. The
information came to Memphis direct
from Supt. Gilleas, of the Illinois Gem
trail, who is now on the line. The water
from this break will reach the Yazoo
& Mississippi Valley tracks at Scott
Station, thirty-one miles south Of Rose
dale, and also at Moore's Station. on
the Huntington branch. The width OF
the creVasse could not be ascertained,
but the worst is feared, as the levee
there for miles is considered rather
weak
The river is stationary at Memphis
tonight, the gauge indicating Sc feet.
At helena, a rise of but tWo-tenths of
foot in the twenty-four hours ending
TO-DAY is recorded. At Arkansas City.
instead Of the considerable rise, a fail
OF two-tenths of foot is indicated.
This fall in the river at that point IS
attributed to the fact that breaks IN
the Arkansas levee above Arkansas
City have afforded an outlet for big
volume of water, which would other
wise swell the volume within the river
channel proper and cause a rise instead
of a fall at this point. The river at Ar
kansas City is 81 feet above danger
line. At Greenville, Miss, a similar
fall Of tWo-tenths of a foot is indi-
Gated. The fall there is attributed TO
breaks in the leVee on the Mississippi
side above Greenville.
At Vicksburg this morning the gauge
registered 1913 feet. a rise Of half a
foot in twenty-four hours. This is S.3
feet above danger line. The river IL
rising with increasing rapidity, both
at Vicksburg and points on the lower
Mississippi.
GREENNILLE, Miss, March 30.-The
levees on Greenvilles front which have
been taxed to their utmost strength for
several days. are still being strained.
Five hundred men are at work night
and day and the town will be saved,
but indications tonight are that all
trains in the delta will soon be stopped.
The river has fallen more than six
inches at Greenville during the past
twenty-four hours and the balance of
the line Of levees is considerably re-
lieved and no further breaks are ex-
pected. The people are more cheerful.

ALLEN ON TAXATION.
First Tariff Speech Delivered in the
Senate.

WASHINGTON March 3O-Senator
Allen, Populist of Nebraska. made
long speech in the senate on the mn
constitutionality of tariff taxes, beyond
tnose requisite for revenue. Although
IT was the first tariff speech the senate
has heard this Session il did not attract
marked attention. Mr.. Allen severely
criticised the trusts and combinations
which, he declared, reaped the main
advantage Of tariff taxes. The san
ator's remarks were in the nature of n
legal argument showing the constitu-
tional limitations on the taxing power
of congress In the course of his speech
he said:
We have a right to consider the
character and occupation of the men
making this claim for protective legis-
lation. They are not the Iaborers
themselves-those whom it is said pro
lection is to benefit-but they are the
manufacturers, the bankers, the attor-
neys and the lobbyists who appeal TO
US in the name of the wage Garner
There are very few of the laborers and
producers who believe wages are raised
substantially by a high tariff, and still
fewer who desire that such tariff
shall be levied on the articles of neces-
sary consumption Of g5 per cent of the
people for their special benefit. 1t is
true there are occasionally a few wage
earners. ignorant Of the principles IN
DERIVING tariffs. whopt in consequence
Of being repeatedly ! told so, believe
prosperity is dependent, in some meas
ure, on protectiveh tariff and they
are induced by the crafty and greedy
for whom they labor to importune con-
gress to protect the particular branch
OF industry in which they are engaged.
But these men are few indeed, and
they are almost always melted to such
appeals by those for whom they labor
and in the interest of those who reap.
IN their name, the benefit of high pro-
tective legislation.
In conclusion, the senator said: 81
place myself on the solid and i'm
pregnable ground that, under our con-
stitution. congress does not possess
power to tax the people to enhance the
private fortunes of the few, and that
the full measure of the taxing power
is reached when a tariff for revenue,

with incidental protection is imposed
Any other construction would lead to
confiscation and incidentally to en-
forced repudiation-the two worst con-
ceivable forms of anarchy and disor-
der in civilized state; and such a.
deduction, when carried to it's legiti-
mate length would lead to the subver-
sion of all order, and the rights of per-
sons and property We cannot serve
the people and the money power at the
same time. Their interests are en-
urely antagonistic. What is for the
common welfare is against the trusts
and pools"
At the conclusion Of Mr.. Aliens re-
marks his resolution was referred to
the finance committee.
The house amendments to the senate
joint resolution appropriating $3.50. 900
for the saving of life and property
along the Mississippi river, were agreed
to and the resolution now goes to the
president.
Mr. Mcbride Orr presented an
amended certificate from the governor
OF oregon, as to the appointment of
Henry w. Corbett as senator from that
state. The certificate states that the
appointment is until the legislature
shall meet, thus curing the supposed
defect in the first credentials, which

Among the petitions was one from
the board of sheep commissioners of
Montana, urging the most ample pro-
lection on wool, in accordance with
the platform promises, and asserting
that the policy Of protection would not
long prevail without this adequate pro-
lection to the wool growing interest.
The Cuban question was brought for
ward again by Mr.. Morgan (Ala.). who
presented a resolution requesting the
president to inform the senate whether
letters had been received by the present
and former chief executive from Gen.
Maxine Gomez. commander of the
revolutionary forces in Cuba The
resolution recites at length the let
tiers said to have been forwarded to
President Mckinley and his predeces-
sor, from Gomez and published in the
newspapers today.
The resolution concludes with a re-
quest that the president shall also in
form the senate whether the Spanish
authorities in Cuba have refused to
allow cipher dispatches to be transmit
ted between the United States consul
at Sagua La Grande and the United
States consul general at Havana.
