A BEET EXPERIMENT.
y Probable New Profitable Crop fol
The South.

Washington, d. c., Sept. 27.-Sccre
AIRY Wilson, of the Agricultural Depart.
ment, has secured an order from the
Post Office Department permitting the
agents of the Agricultural Department
to attach the Department frank to
packages of sugar beet seed to be sem
from growers to the Experiment Sta.
tons throughout the country for analy-
sis. Last spring the Agricultural De
partment sent sugar beet seed to farm
ers to twenty-seven States. 1t is nov
the intention to test the beets grown
from these seed in the various localities
for saccharine strength and it is de.
sired that this work shall be conducted
at the experiment stations. Under tn,
arrangements made to-day with the
POst-Office Department the officials al
the experiment stations will be allowed
TO send postal franks to all farmers t.
whom they supplied seeds by the use oil
which they can send through the mails
free Of cost packages of beets not eX
ceeding four pounds in weight.
Returns have been received from some
of the experimental gr0wths, and SIX.
rotary Wilson said to-day that the re
suits were such as to encourage the belief
that sugar beets could be successfully
grown in almost all the States of the
Union. Contrary to his expectation thu
best reports have been received from tn,
South rather than the North Beet,
grown in the vicinity of Richmond, Va.
give returns Of from Is to 10 per cent OF
saccharinc matter and from the Peco,
Valley in New Mexico from Is to ,.
per cent. In Europe an average Of /.
per cent is considered large
1t is Mr.. Wilson's intention to dis
ribue u tons Of sugar beet seeds next
spring. Heretofore all the seeds distrl
buted by the Department have been pro
cured in Europe The growers in Utah
have promised three tons this year
and it is expected that other localities
in the United States will furnish part
Of the supply necessary.

a Story Comes Of Shocking and unatterabIe
CrueIiies and Tor,lle to 6omen
and Children.

Havana, Sept 27.-Alleged details OF
the capture of Victoria De Las Lunas,
province Of Santiago De Cuba, by the
insurgent forces, have been issued from
the Palace here They say that after
Spanish troops surrendered the insur-
gents began plundering the stores and
private residences and committed many
brutal acts upon women and girls mot
even respecting the sisters of General
Gracia," an insurgent leader of the last
war.
An aged woman named Nicolasa, is
said to have saved her life by throwing
her jewelry to the negroes and thereby
escaping.
Continuing the report says: "From
then commenced the horrible mutilation
Of So volunteers, inclusive Of innocent
children. Pedro Suarez saw his three
sons, still boys, cut down with machettes
and afterwards Ramon Rubia saw his
two sons treated in the same manner.
"Amandemr Pepillio was hanged by
her feet and burned alive. The feet OF
guide of the Spanish troops were
burned off and the man was afterwards
killed with machettes. The insurgents
also tortured and killed a soldier who
was nearly blind, after killing his son
only IL years of age, by burning his
feet.
"Madade Fernando Bodano and hel
two boys were decapitated as was alsC
police inspector, Machado Ramon Diaz
whose legs were first cut off and after
wards his arms.
The widow bf DR.. Trista was tortured
by having fire applied to the lower par
or her body so as to oblige her to d.
liver up her money to the insurgents
"A Sacristan named Camilo was hang
ed by the wrists until dead.
1T is impossible to relate the many
other brutal. Ses committed upon womel
and girls. '"@

HELD BY BANDITTI,
Two Young Men Probably Fall Into the
Hands of Swiss Desperadoes

| Aohuo VI SWISS DeSperadOPS.
Toledo, Ohio, Sept. 27.-Harry ToIler-
ton, aged 20 years, son of Attorney r
wv. Tollerton, and Prof. Daniel T. Holm
es, of Meadville Pa.) College, have been
travelling in Southern Europe since June
but now no one knows where they arc,
and circumstances indicate that both are
held by Swiss banditti, who are demand
| ing ransom for their release. They
were last heard from on the Sth of Sen
tember, at Martigny, Switzerland. A
| few days previous to that time they had
received sufficient funds through Ge-
neve, to provide them with money for
the rest Of their trip to Berlin, where
| both were to enter the university OH the
22nd Of this month. Mr.. Tollerton re-
ceiyed a c0blegram from Prof Holmes
dated Lucerne requesting an immediate
remittance Of $1,000 by cable to Cologne.
| He cabled to the United States consul
at Luzerne for information as to the
whereabouts of the young men, and
what. if any trouble had befallen them,
and also cabled to Holmes for particu-
lars. The reply from the consul was in
definite and unsatisfactory and that puf-
porting to be from Prof. Holmes was
even more so. A second demand for
Isl. 600 was made on the 23rd of this
month, asking that the money be cabled
TO Luzerne. Last Saturday third de-
mand was made for an immediate cable
Of $500 to Luzerne and the remaining
$500 by mail Today message was re-
ceived from Assistant Secretary Day Mt
Washington to the effect that the Mn
lister at Berne and the consul Mt Horgen
had been cabled to make a searching in
lvestigation.
