A BEET SUGAR COMPANY FAILS

Milwaukee, Wis. May 5.-The Wis
:onsin Beet Sugar company of Menomo-
nee Falls made an assignment to Her
mann Nunnemacher of this city, the
bond being fixed at 500, 900. The com
pany has had a great deal of newspaper
notoriety by reason of being the first to
attempt to make beet sugar in his state
on a large scale. The was to
have begun work on the first of the
year, and the plant was in readiness,
but 1t was discovered that the stock OF
bets, which had been held since last
summer, vas spoiled and not available
Ior sugar making. There were $500 tons
of these heets. n the loss caused by
the assignment and the failure TO care
for the beets will fall on the farmers
who raised them, as none of them has
received any pay for the crop. 1t is
thought the assignment is FOR the pur-
pose of Strengthening out the affairs of
the company so that u clean start can
be made in the fall. There is sufficient
money behind the company, and those
to be made in beet sugar making on a
large scale in Wisconsin.

tinnance Of the War For
the Present.
London. May 5.-The chief points of
interest in the Greece-Turkisi situation
last night We're: First that the decl-
sion of the ministers who have returned
from he Greek frontier seems to be in
favor OF a continuance of tbs war. and,
second. hat fighting continued almost
necessarily at Velestino from last Tues
day until Sunday, with the result that
General SmolentZ has been prevented
tier as chief of staff.
AS a further result, the Greeks at We
lestino lave managed to retain their
positions, but they are ton much IA
tigued to ollow up their success.
Altogether fourteen officers ave been
recalled from Crete to be sent on to
Thessaly, and this also is a proof of the
intention of the new cabinet to continue
the war. The movement is actuated by
necessity. All the best officers are be-
Ing sent to the front. nor is there any
Intention displayed to %evacuate Greece.
The Turkish army Is advancing in
three column on Pharsalos, While an
additional column is operating in the
direction of Volo. AS the Volo column
could easily take Velestino in the rear,
the Greek position is very precarious.
This probably explains the retention of
General Smolentz there, as it was nat
ural to expect him to go to Pharsalos to
assume the supreme command. Every
thtng points to an inevitable retreat by
the Greeks on Domokos,
The diplomatic situation continues
obscure, with a constant interchange
Of dispatches between European cabi-
nets and an incessant interviewing Of
ministers.
The correspondent of the Daily Mail
at Arta will say today:
one OF the worst mistakes tho
Greeks have made has been the casual
and intermittent character Of the at
tack upon Prevesa. Its capture was es-
sential. To capture so strong a place
by the means adopted was quite impos-
sible. and now the opportunity is lost al
together.
"Arta is now deserted, its wretched
inhabitants living in the fields behind
the town, many of them on the verge of
starvation. Nothing is procurable in
the way of food, except a scanty and un-
certain supply of bread. Women and
children are suffering pitrably with cold
and hunger, and to those tortures is
added the dread of a Turkish attack at
any moment"
a dispatch to the Morning Post from
karVassara says mat the Greek squad
ron at Prevesa is passively awaiting or
ders and that the Prevesa forts bonn
barded Actium on Saturday.

Montgomery, Ala, May 4.-One night
last week some religious partisans in
Jackson county carried into the woods,
stripped and severely whipped two Nor

gays the constitution of the state guar

Ing polygamy. and the fact that they
believe Smith to have been an inspired
writer should not lay them liable to per-
secution.
