THE VICTIM or A PLOT.
Evidence AGAINST Art Ingram and His
Wife, Who Murdered
[ u. White

WICHITA, KANs., March 13.-Art
Ingram and his wife Mary, held for the
murder of L. J. White, which occurred on
the evening of March 10, were given a
preliminary hearing before Judge Jones,
to-day and were both bound over to the
District Court. The case is one OF unusual
interest because of the mystery which
wells the motive for the crime and because
of the peculiar manner in which the
death blow was dealt. White, was killed
by piece of gas pipe, which was hurled
at him, and struck him in the back of the
head, penetrating far into the cranial
cavity. The testimony of disreputa bic
woman was introduced by the defense
to-day to show that White was frequent
but secret visitor at the Ingram home
that Ingram found him there on the night
of the murder; that the men quarreled
ana that White was the aggressor. White
was prominent in Iowa ana held positions
of honor in MonteZuma, many years. Tne
evidence in the hands of the State seem
TO point to carefully planned p. .ot to ruin
the murdered man, who was known to
have money.

THE ENr ARsI.

Comprehenstre StGtennent Of Its oondt-
fton bv an ED- Officer
BOSTON, MASS. March 13.-Following
are excerpts from column interview
printed here to-day with DR.. ]. II rbert
Stephens, recently d colonel in the Cuban
army:
ssThe insurgent army is little better
equipped to-day than ever before, and
should say that at the present time there
are not less than 10000 men in the field
Food has been scarce at times, but when
plentiful, as at present, consists of beef
and bananas. Beef is plentiful on the
island, where cattle run wild in hundreds
of thousands. The men round them up
and kill and dress bunch of cows. Much
of the beef is wasted, but the supply seems
unlimited.
GAS far as I was able to observe there
are few Americans in the Cuban army and
the stories OF whole companies are un-
founded. The Cuban, like the Spaniard,
is suspicious of Americans. and jealousy
prevails all over tt e island. Americans
and Cubans do not affiliate.
~ should say that about 80 per cent of
the men in the Cuban army are colored.
There are few colored men with General
Gomez, but in Santiago de Cuba there are
many colored soldiers, some of whom are
officers.
There is not much sickness in the
army as rule. General Gomez is in good
ealth, and as far as that old wound in
his leg is concerned I can say that while
was with him it did not trouble him"

area. with such notifications as SOIL ana
climate may suggest, that the new oecre-
tary of Agriculture will surprise tne
farmers of the country when they open
their seed packages which they are to re-
ceive under the new administration.
But it is not to this alone that the new
Secretary has given his attention during
the first few days of his work. He has
found in his work, as have many others
who have had opportunity to study the
interests of the farmers, that no subjec ct
more engrosses the atten ion of the agri-
culturists than that Of bet production.
From the North and West especially the
demand for sugar beet see.is and oppor-
tunity to experiment in beet production
has been very great. and now the demand
is coming from the South, where many OF
the armers believe that it is practicable
to grow sugar beets. This statement is
not limited to those directly interested in
agriculture. The capitalists and business
men of the towns and cities stand ready
to invest large sums OF money in the beet
sugar factories, provided it is found that
beets can be grown successfully in their
localities. With this in view Secretary
Wilson has arranged TO distribute beet
seeds to every county in the United
States in whicn beet culture seems to be
at all likely to succeed. Contracts have
already been made for very large guam
tity OF beet seecs of the best varieties and
the work Of distributing them will begin
very soon.
These seeds will go to the experiment
- t. c.
these stations be sent to each county with
Instructions to those farmers receiving
them to send the beets thus produced to
the experiment station of that State for
analysis. Instead of disconra ging the
farmers of the country il their mbition
to produce the sugar for which $100, 000,-
900 is now sent abroad annually, as seems
TO have been the case under the recent
administration, every encouragement will
be given to the experiments and to the
investment OF funds by those desiring to
cooperate with the farmers in the pro-
duction of the sugar supply of the United
States.
Mem bers of Congress who have followed
Secretary Wilson's work, as developed in
the few days that he has been at the head
of his department. speak in the highest
terms of the plans and methods intro
duced by him. and through which he is,
they believe, about to open to the asricul-
turists of the country new fields and fur
nIsh them increased earnings. At the
conclusion of his interview with The CALL
correspondent, Secretary Wilson said that
he would use his best efforts to secure ade-
quate protection for California fruits
against foreign importations. and that he
would cause to be prosecuted with greater
vigor than ever the efforts OF the Bureau
of Vegetable Pathology to eradicate the
scale insect
