years under Boies and two years under
Drake of $2,205, 11454.
The enormous increase of those ex-
penditures of itself, if no crookedness
had been shown, is such as to demand
an explanation from the officials in
charge of every transaction with which
they have had anything to do. 1t must
be that the systematic extortions car
ried on in the matter of state printing
and state binding, and in the secretary
of states office, have been carried into
every department of the state business,
and that the management of every state
institution is rotten to the core. 1t will
not do for these men who stand con-
victed to answer back in general terms,
or with volumes of figures. This
money is gone. 1t has been wrongful
ly taken from the people, and the state
has been plunged into debt at the very
moment when there was no occasion for
a debt. 1t is not a question whether or
not the people have been robbed, shame
lessly robbed of hundreds of thousands
of dollars, for that fact is established.
Under these circumstances the peo-
pie are calmly told by the republican
convention at Cedar Rapids that the
administration of Gov. Drake has been
economical and clean. jackson was
chosen as leader in 1894 But he, the
representative of great insurance
company, the choice of number of
New York capitalists, dare not face the
people for second term. He was sue
ceeded in the governors chair by rail-
road president, Drake, and Drake was
driven from making the race this year
because the politicians knew the people
would defeat him.
AS their choice this year for governor
the corrupt politicians present bank
er, a money lender, a chattel mortgage
freak. Verify, the railroad companies,
the insurance companies and the bank
ers have taken charge of the people of
the state of Iowa; taken charge of the
state house and the treasury, and insti-
tutcd methods by which they may fitch
from the treasury enough money each
year to wage political campaign
through purchased press and lying
orators with such vigor and adroitness
as to deceive the people, whom they are
organized to rob.-T @. Stuart.

The Western members of the house
are preparing to make strong stand
for the retention of the dnty on hides,
in the tariff bill, if that feature is
adopted by the senate. There was a
strong sentiment in favor of pro-
lection for hides in the house, when
the bill was before that body, but no
opportunity was given the house to
vote on the question, vote being
permitted on those amendments only
which were proposed by the ways and
means committee.
In the committee itself PROPOSE
tion was made to put duty on hides,
when the Dingley bill was inprepara-
tion, and the proposal failed by a
majority of only two votes. With
such a narrow margin against the
duty on hides in the committee, the
western men feel confident that they
can carry their point, if'the question
comes to vote in the house, particu-
larly as they are assured of the CO.
operation of some democrats.

devoted to the sundry civil appropria-
tion bill, which was not completed up

Pettigrew added that assurances had

Ratification Treaty Defeated by

WASHINGTON, May 6.-SenaLor w.
! DebOe, Kentucky's successor to
Senator Blackburn, was sworn in In
the senate.
The sundry civil bill was taken up
and authority given the president b!
an amendment offered by Allison TO
exercise the widest latitude in 'choos-
ing members of the commission on
the Nicaragua canal route. An amend
ment was agreed to 'appropriating
$4,000 for the improvement of Pear
harbor, Hawaii.
The senate went into executive scs-
sion for the purpose of concluding
consideration Of the arbitration treaty
in accordance with an agreement
made two weeks ago,
Tue arbitration treaty vote has
been defeated in the senate by vote
of 43 to 26. 1t thus has failed to re-
ceive the,neceSsary twO-thirds required

IT was evident before the ballot was
completed that tie motion to ratify
would be beaten. The absence Of
some senators, impaired, who were con-
sidered favorable TO arbitration was
accepted as an unfavorable indication.
The covert opposition to the ratifi-
cation was made very manifest after
the vote was announced. Some sena-
tors who were recorded among the
yeas spoke quite openly of the objec-
tionable features, confessing that
they had cast their votes in the affirm
ative in Difference to public opinion.
Among those who were waiting in
the senate corridors to receive the
news was Michael Davitt, who ap-
peared much pleased at the result.
Senator Davis, chairman Of the COM
mittee on foreign relations, declined
to express an opinion for publication,
but talked freely with his friends. To
them he attributed the defeat to the
feeling of dissatisfaction at England's
course in the struggle Of the Greeks
to liberate Crete from the Ottoman
domination and Armenian massacres
and with the "evident" designs of
Great Britain upon the TransYaal.

LEE IS IN NEW YORK.
He Says Evangelina Cisneros Is Fair
lv We'll Treated.

New York, Sept. S.-Consu1 General
Fitzhugh Lee, accompanied by his son.
arrived from Havana today. The general
said he had been suffering from bilious
ness for some time past. but he felt very
much better after his trip. When asked
as to whether he would return - Cuba
or not, the general shook his head and
said: II cannot answer that, and l would
rather not talk on Cuban affairs until 1
make my report in Washington
In speaking of the case of Evangelina
Cisnero, the general said: The woman
is now confined in Casa Recohidas. She
has never been tried and l do not think
that ii was ever intended that she should
be banished. The stories of her ill-treat-
ment are very much exaggerated, and
were it not for the hUbbub Wlich has
been raised about her the girl would have
probably been released long ago. In fact,
/ was given to understand that her name
was on the pardon list. She has comfort
able quarters and is treated as well as
possible under the conditions. There is Q
good deal of suffering in Cuba but the
Americans, numbering about 1,400. are
being cared for from the fund of 900
which was appropriated for the purpose.
They receive daily aid. and up to the
present time 81 500 has been expended

rived were Robert L. Oliver. United

General W F'ishback of this city. who
was said to have been sent to Havana
on business for the United States gov
eminent Mr.. F'ishback said that his trip
TO Havana was purely on private bust
ness. He said there was a great desl of
suffering all over Cuba and that the con-
dition of the people was even worse than
when he was there last as, secretary to
Commissioner Calhoun. when the latter
was investigating the Ruiz case. He saw
Miss Cisneros at the Casa Recohidas. and
said that the reports regarding her treat
ment were grossly exaggerated and that
the young woman was fairly well treated
and did not complain when he was speak
ing TO her.

AMERICAN INTERFERENCE.
Spain and Other Nations Want Tt
Checked.

st. Louis, Sept. S.-Comte Henri de
Penalosa, who has been visiting friends
in St Louis for a few days, said that
the rumor of an understanding between
Spain and other European nations
looking to a check upon American in
reference with Cuba, was confirmed by
information which came to him from
high authority. He has been intro
duced in st. Louis as member of an
are with the Carlist family, but whose
connection with high politics in Spain
keep them posted on most of the i'm
portant diplomatic movements. He
said:
Some time last September. when the
Cuban question was so much agitated
in the United States, even to the point
of furnishing planRs to the declarations
of presidential conventions, Senior Can
evas del Castillo then premier of SPAIN
received assurances from the English
and French governments, through their
representatives in Madrid, that they
would not permit any action on the
part of the United States other than
a very perfunctory recognition Of the
belligerency of the insurgents On Aug.
5, before leaving Paris, 1 learned from
trustworthy sources that this assur-
ance had been renewed. General Az
carraga, the new premier, has received
the French and English ambassadors
who have once more assured Spain of
the sympathy of their governments,
and OF their willingness to give her
their diplomatic help"

ators for the stand ne took in the con-

lake shippers arrived in the CITY from
Cleveland during the day, and are busy
making contracts with the producers OF
coal. There is no quibbling about the
prices, and 20 cents is the generally ae-
ceplled rate. The prices will likely be
maintained until after the lake con-
tracts are filled, when there may be an
attempt TO buy coal on paper. The pro-
ducers, however, are projecting their
organization, and declare they win sell
