It Pleasant

Plattsburg, n. Y, Aug. 4.-President
Mckinley reviewed the Twenty first
infantry again yesterday. The presi-
dent sat with Mrs. Mckinley at her
own corner of the Hotel Champ1ain
balcony, which was covered with bunt-
ing. The regulars showed to good ad-
vantage as they wound past their band
playing lively airs. The hotel guests
and about 1000 townspeople watched
the parade. A feature which elected
considerable applause was the regimen
tai bicycle corps, commanded by Lieut.
Parks.
When the review was over the Twen-
ty-frst band gave a concert President
and Mrs. Mckinley seemed to thor
oughly enjoy the entire proceedings.
Lieutenant Governor Fisk, of Vermont

dents only visitors during the morn
ing. Their call was for the purpose of

garding the stage reached in the peace
negotiation between Greece and Tur-

referred Sir Ellis to the statement mad >
by the Marquis Of Salisbury in the
house of lords last evening
Sir Ellis said he wanted an explana-
ton of a portion of the premier's stats-
ment referred to. This caused the for
eign Office representative to reply that
it was no part of his duty to explain
the meaning Of the prernier's speech.
Sir Ellis and ether members Of the house
then vigorously protested against be-
ing referred to the statements made in
another place and asked the speaker if
there was any precedent for such pro-

The Speaker said there had been.
precedent for such action during the

sion which led to vehement protests

NO PRIZES THIS YEAR
Bands for the Fall Festival Are to Be
Hired.

A cash prize of $3.50 will be offered at
the Topeka Fall Festival for the best
band in the state. MarshaII's to be
barred. Youngs band Of AtchisOn will
enter with 35 men, and make Andy
Manifold hard to catch--Atchison
Globe.
This is a mistake. No prizes are to be
offered for bands this year, and there
is to be no contest. All bands that are
needed are to be hired outright, and it
is probable that six to eight of the best
bands in the state will be engaged.
Young's band of Atchison should send
its terms to the Committee of Fifteen
and it may be one of the lucky bands.
It is quite likely that the Santa F'e
delegations will bring several brass
bands of their own, as eight will not be
enough for the procession, which is ex-
pected to be nearly five miles in length.
All bands of G. A R. posts, fraternal
society delegations and railroad deIega-
tions will be looked after and given
special courtesies and privileges.

TROXEL'S HAT
Pulled Out of the River at Tecumseh,
But There Was No Drowning.

There were runors of a drowning or a
suicide in which Cloyd r. Troxel, young
attorney of Abilene, figured as the princi-
pal 1t is true that his hat was found
floating down the Kansas river and was
f1shed out al Tecumseh today. The name
of the young attorney was found in the
hat and some one who happened to be
there remembered of having heard the
name before.
It was known also, that Mr. Troxel left
Abilene a few days ago and did not in
from his friends of his destination. Con-
siderable excitement was caused by the
finding of the hat as it was supposed that
the Abilene man was dragging along the
muddy bottom of the Kaw
But all fears of accident or self-destruc-
tion were dispelled when it was found
that last evening as Mr. Troxel and some
friends were crossing the Kansas river
trolley bridge on open car, a sudden
gust of wind had carried his hat sailing
into black space which finally ended at
the waters surface It was a new hat,
too Mr.. Troxel had just purchased it to
wear to Topeka whence he came to con-
fer with his partner in law, Private Sec

BASEBALL AND WHISKY
Lead to Free For All Fight Between
Sailors and Coolies.

San Francisco, Cal, Aug 4.-The
steamer Belgic, from Hong Kong via
Honolulu, brings adyices from Kobe to
the reflect that a serious riot occurred
there on July u between a number of
sailors from the ships Yorktown and
Boston and mob of japanese coolies
on the occasion of ball game between
a team from the two warships and the
European nine of Kobe. The row
commenced when a co0Iie, having stolen
a flask of whisky from a bluejacket
was caught and chastised by the lat
ter.
The local police attempted to arrest
the sailor, but his shipmates refused to
give him up and marched in a body to
a restaurant. where they made a stand
and defied the natives. An immense
crowd assembled and the attitude of
the coolies was decidedly menacing, but
the police made no effort to dfsperse
the mob and the bluejackets determin-
ed to fight their way through the mob
to the water front Stones and other
missiles were exchanged, and when a
reinforcement came ashore some hours
Later the police dispersed the coolies
and the sailors boarded their respective
ships without further rnolestation. 1t
is believed. however, that more viii be
heard of the incident in the near future

YELLOW FEVER OUTLOOK.
Everything at Havana is Conducive
to Its Rapid Spread

Washington, Aug. 4-ConsuI General
port to the surgeon general of the ma
rine hospital service, Dr.. Drummer, san
itarian inspector for the service at Ha-
vana, dwells upon the probability of a
rapid increase of yellow fever among
the Spanish sailors
He says that up to recent date there
were TO cases among the sailors of the
Spanish navy. but that lately several
have appeared. He attributed this to
the fact that some of the war ships
have gone to the navy yard, which is in
close proximity to the military hospital
and the Tallipiedra wharf, which is in
bad condition
There are he says, seven or eight
war vessels now in the harbor, and
their complement must aggregate l.
500 men. many of whom, I learn are
not acclimated. This being true. they
Will be doubly exposed to the danger
of contracting the disease, being in close
proximity TO the worst infected
wharves of the city,
He adds that the report from the mill
itary hospitals show that yellow fever
is decreasing. Dr. Caminero. inspector
Santiago, says there are 1000 Span
ish soldiers sick there of various dis
cases.

GREATEST CATTLE RUSH.
Receipts at the K C. Stockyards Yes
terday Broke All Previous Records.

Kansas City, No, Aug. 4--The re-
ceipts of cattle in Kansas City yester-
day were the largest on record, being
Is, 393 head.
The largest numb Der previously re-
ceived in one day was 1900, on OctO-
ber Is, 1893. This unprecedented rush
of cattle to the market is due to the
drouth in southern and western Kansas
where feed and water have become so
scarce that cattlemen could no longer
maintain their droVes.
As a result of these unprecedented re-
ceipts, prices were 20 to 40 cents below
the prices prevailing a week ago. The
bulk of the receipts are ''unripe' cattle
a little too far advanced to be classified
as feeders, and averaging only fair as
butchers cattle. Rains prevailed in
Kansas yesterday, however, and it is
believed the rush to this market is
over.
The Topeka state journal., 1897-08-04

After the meeting had adjourned a
prominent member of the A O. L. W.
said to a reporter: I'VE must have an
arch across Kansas avenue for the
Fall Festival, and we are going to have
one if the A o. L. W. lodges have to
build it themselves -
As the idea of the Fall Festival is a
grand reunion of the people of Kansas
irrespective of party creed or secret
lodges reconsider their action, build
the arch and place on it the inspiring
words, ''AI1 Men Are Brothers" The
brotherhood of man is the greatest of
all brotherhOods- Men who do not be-
long to any fraternal order will be
greatly impressed with the high ideal of
brotherhoods and it will set them think
ing in way that will bring many more
into the fraternaI orders.
