ca, which Olney had sent to Sherman,
objecting to the Nicaragua canal bill
as violation of the contract by which
the concession was obtained from
Nicaragua. The other sensations were
the open discussion of the Anglo-Amer-
lean arbitration treaty, which was all
out Of order, as it should have been
discussed only in executive session.
Then Turpie of Indiana began quite
an extended speech based on a news
paper report that Sherman and Olney
had agreed on q policy with regard to
Cuba, and was going on to denounce
such agreements when Sherman in
formed him that the report was false
in every particular and made out Of
whole cloth. The Nicaragua business
was the most important by far.
Sherman Brings In the Bomb.
Stewart had been going into the
treaty at length and opposing II in
toto, when Morgan broke I'm with tn.
remark that the debate was all out Of
order outside Of executive session. and
Stewart subsiding. called up the Mica
ragua canal bill. and here was where
the most interesting part of the session
Sherman presented and had read n
communication from the minister OF the
Greater Republic of Central America
to the secretary of state which had been
transmitted by Secretary Olney. The
communication criticised the pending
Nicaragua bill in various particulars,
and pointed out certain objections
which in his opinion would render them
nugatory. AS soon as the communica-
tion had been read Morgan took the
floor. He said the communication had
come before the senate in proper form
because II came through the state de-
partment, but the senate had no knowl-
edge Of who the signer was: did not
even know officially of the existence of
the Greater Republic of Central Amer
lea"
MIR. Rodriguez is the accredited
representative here of that republic" ("
interrupted Sherman.
Morgan smells . British Mice.
Il understand" replied Morgan
that he has been received and bowed
| i2to the diplomatic corps. but this Is ou,
first knowledge that such a government
| exists" Morgan said that the British
| government was interested in counter
acting the purposes of the United States
| as to Nicaragua. He had so expressed
his conviction to the secretary OF
state. British railway lines had beer
established across the isthmus for the
distinct purpose of securing exclusive
| control OF this isthmus communication
This belief was confirmed by recent de.
velopmcnts.

eran Teachers conference, discussion
was consumed on the status Of lady
teachers according to the Lutheran doc.
trine. Rev. NJ. Strieter of Illinois
opened the debate. He held there were
three different modes in relation to lady
teachers-the direct by God, the indi.
rect through the congregation, and the
Endorsement by love of neighbor. The
lady teachers were affected by the third.
The speaker said the Apostle Paul pro-
hibited woman from teaching in public;
the male is called to a parish to preach
the gospel and to teach the pupil, but
that woman is barred. An animated
discussion followed.

THE OLD OLD STORY.
A Winfred Man Visits the Big Uity and
is ''OoD6denced."

Minneapolis Tribune, Il: h DID,, OLD
lock game seems still to have its attract.
ion for rural visitors, for every now and
then some unsuspectiug granger is
caught and about all the satisfaction he
gets is u chance to tell his troubles to a
policeman. W. H. Cook, of Winfred, S.
D., is the latest victim cron,cled and al
though he lost $50 by the transaction,
some clever detective work on the part
of Officers Collins and Long succeeded
in landing the sw,ndlers behind the bars.
Cook has been in the city a few days
ard about five o'clock Saturday after
noon was leisurely walking down Wash
ington u Near Sixth avenue
south he was met by a stranger who in
vited him to have Il glass of beer. Cook
reciprocated and the stranger kindly in.
quired about his home, business, etc.
Finally Cook was asked to take a walk
and see the city. This be consented to
do and the pair strolled along towards
Elliott Park. When only a short dis
lance from the park a stranger stopped
them and asked for a match, which was
given him. Then Cooks friend pulled
out a lock and offered to bet the second
stranger he could not open it. The lat.
ter took the bet aud war ready to wager
$40. The man who proposed the bet
had only IS and wanted to borrow IS
more from Cook. While the three were
arguing the matter, another stranger
stepped up and said that gambling on
the streets was not allowed. Then, ex-
hibitlng q tin star, he said he was com.
PEELED to place the lair under arrest,
the man who wanted to take up the bet
having escaped. The self im~personated
officer took Cook and his friend down the
street come distance saying he was about
to take them to police headquarters.
After walking a little distance he said
he thought be could fix matters up if
each man would let him have $50.
Cooks supposed friend had a check
which was accepted but Cook handed
over $50 in cold cash to the bogus officer.
The latter her told the pair to "clear
out" as quickly as possible and they did
So.
After some time Cook became con-
vinced that all was not right and he con.
ided bis little experience to Officer
Collins, whom he met. The latter
Immediately secured a description of
the ICON" men and with Officer John
Longs aid arrested two of them.
Charles Carlston, alias Montana
Tough" was recognized as the m an
who had first accosted Cook and Theo.
dore Wilson, also known as "United
States Schooner" vas identified by
Cook as the man who had met them at
the park. The third man, who had play.
cd the part Of the Deceive, was captured
last night but would give no name. Cook
positively identified the arrested men.
The police say that Wilson was arrest
ed on a similar charge two years ago and
the officers also claim that these men
have been engaged in this work for some
time. The prisoners were charged with
