AS usual the annual fall excursion
of the New York, Ontorio and Western
to New York City will be run on Oc-
tober 20, and excursion tickets will be
sold at one fare for the round trip.
In former years this popular excursion
has been largely patronized, and it is
not expected that this year will be an
exception, as there is no season of the
year when the metropolis presents to
its visitors so many attractions or such
delightful weather. Wait for it. ~

London, August 26.-The Paris CORE
spondent of the Daily Mail says: The
conference between United States Min
lister Woodford Ambassador Porter
and Ambassador White has failed to
arrive at any definite decision. Gen
eral Woodford's task is extremely del
lcate. He has been instructed to put
the screw upon Spain, but to avoid any
step leading to an open rupture. Much
depends. therefore, upon SPANS atti-
tude and upon the amount of support
she receives from Europe.
On both these points the reports or
Ambassador White and Ambassador
Porter were unfavorable 10 the Amer
lean case. The Spanish government is
forced by public opinion to continue
the policy of Canovas, and the senti-
ment of both France and Germany is
decidedly hostile to American Interior
ence.
Under these circumstances 1t is pro-
liable that until Minister Woodford is
able to feel his way more clearly
American policy will be watered down
to the maintenance of claims of Amer
lean citizens in Cuba, set off by Spain
claims with regard to filibustering.

Washington, August 27.-That veter'

yesterday called ON Congressman II. ID.
DeGraffenreid ut the Hotel Wellington
and extended an urgent invitation to
the member from the Third district to
go into the Buckeye State and make
few speeches for the democratic ticket
Colonel Hill said he had received num-
erous letters requesting him to call on
Mr.. DeGraffenreid and urge that gentle
man to accept the several invitations
previously given, and Colonel Hill says
that in his judgment no speaker In the
country can arouse more enthusiasm
from the stump than the Black Eagle
of the Piney Woods.
Mr.. DeGraffenreid says he can not at
this time state Watcher or not he Will be
able to make speeches in Ohio as re-
uuested but that if he can make the ne
cessary arrangements nothing will give
him more pleasure than to accept the In
vitation to stump the State of Ohio. He

Gratis will win out this fall.

Luling, Texas, August 27.-A number
of Mexican citizens state that they have
received notices from parties, to them
unknown, that they would not be al
lowed to occupy certain lands as ten
ants during the coming year, and that
if they attempted to work upon them 1t
would be the worse for them. the mat
ter, to this section, is most important
one. The advent of the Mexican laborer
forced the negroes from the large farms
as tenants; the poorer white renters
will now be forced to go. They will not
move without a struggle to hold their
old homes. 1t is learned that meetings
have been held, and concert of action
taken. The affair may grow and de-
velop into whitecapping. Those inter
ested are close-mouthed, and 1t is with
the utmost difficulty that anything can

No WORD From nrnllnrr.

Galveston, Texas, August 27.--The
work Of arranging a peace between the
Lone Star. Mallory and Morgan lines
in the matter of rates seems to be
bigger job than the Galveston CONNER
cial bodies bargained for. So far the
committee, consisting of Messrs. Adoue,
Gresham and Wallis, report practically
no progresA Chairman Adoue said
yesterday evening they had heard
nothing from the Mallory line as to
whether or not they will participate In
Il conference looking to the restora-
ton of the rates to reasonable basis.
Whether the Mallorys are consider
ing the matter or are treating the in
vitaton with silent contempt is pro-
blem.
In the meantime all the lines are do
ing land office business. The Comal
of the Mallory line and Matteawan of
the Lone Star Line arrived here yes
terday morning, both ships bringing
full cargoes. The Lone Star boat has
only light cargo engaged for the
northbound voyage, and will get away
Saturday. 1t consists of 500 cases of
canned goods from San Francisco via
the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe.
As long as the warning steamer lines
are cutting and slashing rates, and
quoting them only from day to day,
the railways can afford, so they say, to
keep out of the fight. But when it
comes to fixing permanent rate from
New York to Galveston which would
mean cessation of hostilities the
railroads will, no doubt, have very
much to say.

Waco. Texas, August 27.-When the
board of trustees of Baylor University
elected DR.. Rufus G. Burleson presi-
dent for life on the same salary he re-
ceived before it was generally believed
that such action was complimentary TO
the venerable educator. 1t transplres,
however, that DR.. Burlesons official
connection with the university is prac-
tically severed. AS this condition of af-
fairs began to dawn upon the friends OF
the old pioneer protests began to ap'
pear, the first from the Corsicana AS
ISOLATION of Baptist Churches, followed
by others, and more recently the Crock
EFT association. An Endorsement OF the
trustees by the students here, which
was published in the local papers, did
not have the desired effect, and the col
umns of the Baptist papers have been
illumined with very suggestive halo
for several weeks. The controversy
seems to be getting very spirited, and
when the Baptist general convention
meets in Weatherford October there
will be perhaps one of the livelieSt dis
-ell.Ss-SSlSns that body ever witnessed. III.

Bryan at Rapid CITY.

Rapid City, S. D., August 26,-The
special train bearing w. j. Bryan and
a large delegation from Deadwood and
intermediate points and an escort COM
mittee from this city, arrived here at
O'Clock yesterday.
large and enthusiastic crowd was
at the depot to welcome them. Mr..
Bryan, Mrs. Bryan and the other mem
bers of their party were driven to the
residence of j. NJ. Wood, where they
We're entertained until the hour for
speaking AT 3 o'clock two bands of
music and an escort consisting of sew
eral hundred people proceeded to Mr..
Woods residence, where Mr.. Bryan,
Congressman Knowles and Governor
Lee Joined them. They went from
There to the courtyard square, which
was decorated with flags and bunting
and large Portraits of Mr.. Bryan. AS
the party arrived the entire assem-
blage, numbering 5000, arose and way
ing umbrellas, hats and handkerchiefs,
cheered frantically. After several
minutes quiet was restored and Colon
ell Elmer Howe introduced Mr.. Bryan.
This was the signal for another out
burst, and it was impossible for Mr..
Bryan to proceed until he mounted
chair and permitted everyone to have
full view of him. Finally he was
permitted to proceed, and for two
hours he held the vast throng spell
bound with his pathos and eloquence.
His address was ON "Bimetallsm," and
1t was undoubtedly one of the greatest
Efforts of his life. Mr.. Bryan's audi
ence numbered many more than the
great crowd which assembled around
the platform. The Telephone company
had placed Photographic attach
ment directly in front of the speaker,
and his words were telephoned over
the entire circuit of the Black Hills,
and the hundreds of subscribers of
the Telephone company heard his
speech. AT the conclusion of Mr.. Bry-
ans address the assemblage refused
to let Mr.. Bryan go without shaking
hands, and for two hours he was kept
busy receiving congratulations. Mr..
Bryan left for Hot Springs.

Pittsburg, Pa, August 27.-The wives
and daughters of the striking miners at
D'Armltt's Rock Hill mines, called Tur-
tie Creek, took prominent part yes
to-day against the working miners. A
dozen or more women gathered at the
camp this morning with banners and
marched along the roads leading to-
ward the tipple. On their way they met
a number of miners going to the pit,
and they greeted them with yells and
jeers. They derided the miners who
We're working, and rldiculed them in a
manner which caused them to hang
their heads in shame. The strikers
ciaim that only fifteen men are at work
in the Ga Hill mine, while the company
says that slXty-fivc pits were mined
yesterday Superintendent DArmitt
and four deputy sherlffs commenced
the work of evictlng the families of the
Plum Creek strikers yesterday. The
work will be kept up until the company
has the possession of all their houses.
At Bunola the mine owners are grad
ually gaining on the strikers. Fourteen
men returned to work yesterday, and
sixty-seven more returned to work later
on. A large parade and meeting was
held at Turtle Creek tonight without
molestation from the deputies. Presi-
dent Dolan addressed big meeting at
Clare Ridge, Westmoreland county yes
tcNlay evening. Before leaving the city
lie gave the details of the arrest. He
said he went before Judge Mcllvane
and was told that he had not violated
the laws, and was discharged.

Beevllle, Texas, August 27.-One day
this week Sheriff Lewis of Live Oak
county had occasion to visit Mr. Tay-
Tor Whitsett's ranch in the northwest
ern edge of the county, and when he
returned to Oakville he created consld-
cradle excitement among his friends

Mr. WIhitsett discovered these traces
of the yellow metal in rayine on his
place on Sunday and upon investiga-
tlon found indications of the existence
of the quartz in large quantities. His
ranch Is situated on a range of hills

respective suites witnessed march
