THE DUTY ON GRANITE.
American Manufacturers Want 1t Placed

at 100 Per Cent.
Washington, March 20.-The duty on
granite in the new tariff bill is 40 per
cent ad ynlorem. To increase this duty
to 100 per cent, If possible, Is the purpose
of the visit to Washington of James
Thompson, the president of the Granite
Manufacturer's Association OF Quincy,
Mass. Mr.. Thompson is accompanied
by John Shaw, of Boston, member OF
the Home Market Club. The two New
En2landers had long conference this
morning with Mr.. Tawney Of Mime
sofa, with Mr.. Dolliver, of Iowa, and
other members of the ways and means
committee. They exnlained the meth
DDS of the American trust, which controls
the importations Of the Aberdeen Scotch
granite to the United Stats and submit
ted documentary evidence to show that
six of the seventeen mem bers of the trust
have protested strongly against any in
crease In the rate of duty. They point
ont the difficulties under which the
American manufacturer labors. It was

worker in granite receives wages averag-

Scotland, the granite worker Is paid
wages not exceeding a dollar a day. A
piece of finished granite which costs,
when shipped from Scotland, ono hun-
dred dollars, can pay advalorem duty OF
30 per cent..and be sold in this country
for $40 whore the finished product OF
America would cost, owing to the differ

also shown that Scotch granite could be

cate than from the Ortonville mines in
this country. Consequently they claim
tbs matter of distance is no protection
to the American manufacturer. Mr..
Tawney thinks the American manufact-
urer should DO protected by a duty Of IL
cents per cubic foot and 30 per cent ad

with the committee to secure a higher

Mrs. John A.. Logan to Look After the

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-An order has
been issued by the orphans court max
ing Mrs. John A. Logan guardian for
Miss Evangelina Cossio y Cisneros.
The proceedings in court were very
brief but the senorita's appearance
created much interest. The applica.
ton for guardianship set out that Miss
Cisneros has declared her intention to
become q citizen of the United States,
so far as the law allows, and that she
intends to enter an institution of learn
ing in this city and to hereafter re-
main a resident of Washington. The
petition also cites the incarceration of
her father, Jose Augustin Cossio y Ser
rano, and that there is no time fixed for
his release and that there is reason to
believe that it will be a long time be-
fore he is liberated, if at all.

THE NEWSOF THE DAY
SOUTH DAKOTA HAPPENINGS IN
CONDENSED FORM.
Question of Importance to South Da-
kotans Is Raised at Britton Which
Involves the Liquor Law Passed
Last Wintcr-Othcr Items.
Involves Liouor Law,

A very interesting question has arisen at
!!sritton under the liquor law passed by the
legislature last winter. An application
was made in behalf of the state and county
against the board of trustees of the town
OF Britton for an injunction restraining
them from issuing permit to one Davis
to sell intoxicating liquor in the town un-
til an election should be held and there
was vote in favor of the sale of liquor at
retail. No vote has been taken as pro-
vided in section % of the act. Judge Wells
appeared for the board of trustees and
raised the question that section % was in
violation of one of the provisions
OF the constitution. which re-
quires that every bill shall embrace but
one subject, which shall be expressed in
its title. Judge Wells argument was to
the effect that section q provided for the
entire prohibition of the liquor traffic, and
that the title of the act was not broad
enough to cover such u provisions; that the
title of the bill was intended to cover a
license law, pure and simple, and that the
legislature could not, under such title,
introduce prohibitive provisions without
violating the constitution.

gain has been for agriculture. Corn has

pect. Cotton declined an eighth because OF

are doing well, but wheat has advanced

with heavy purchases for export.

Star Pointer Beats Patchcn.
There were $1,000 people at Washington
Park, Chicago, Saturday afternoon who
saw the fastest first heat ever paced and
perhaps the fastest fourth quarter. The
chief event ON the card was the match be-
tween Joe Patchen, 2:0l1@ and Star
Pointer, 2:0l$.. The toss of coin gave
Patchen the pole for the first and third
heats. Star Pointer, notwithstanding this
advantage, won all three heats handily,
outfooting the black horse.
First Hcat-They went away together.
Rounding the first turn Patchen was a
length ahead. The first quarter was COW
cred in :30ls, 2:02 gait. The half was
was passed in 1:S2l@. AT that point
Pointer, travelling on the outside, had
fallen an open length behind Patchell.
Swinging into the stretch McCleary called
OIL the bay horse, and he responded gamely
with one of the greatest bursts of speed
ever seen OH a trotting track. Steadily,
inch by inch, he crept up on Patchen.
Curry shook up his horse and laid the lash
on hard. He responded nobly and let out
another link, pacing like awell balanced
piece of machinery, but he could not shake
off his antagonist. Pointer crept up
slowly and finally past Joe in the last half
dozen strides, going under the wire win
ner of the heat by a nose. The time for
the mile was 2:02 fiat, and first heat rec
ord was marked up.
The strength with which, Pointer finished
in this heat made it almost a foregone
conclusion that he would win the second
heat and the race. When they were given
the word they went away at evens, but
Pointer was never headed, winning Iy
two open lengths in 2:04ls.
The third heat was Il repitition of the
second and was made in 2:W.

A Foxy Sheen Owner.

VIM. Hoobler, a sheep raiser of Kimball,
recently made trade for a stock of boots
and shoes with J. r. Moore at Sheldon,
Iowa, Hooblcr giving mortgage back to
Moore for 5000 and giving bill of sale
clear on the sheep. When Moore came
after the sheep he found three mortgages
and nearly $50 taxes unpaid, all aggregat-
ing nearly 81, 400. Moore paid all but one
mortgage which had just run past the
date and was considered outlawet. Moore
closed the store on Hoobler at Sheldon,
but not until Hoobler had packed and
shipped $1,000 worth of goods to a brother
at White Lake, which were intercepted by
the sheriff. Now the sheriff is after Hoob-
Ter, who has left for parts unknown.

MURDER AT SEA.

Captain and First Mate of a
Vessel Killed by the Crew.
A cable dispatch from BeunOs Ayres
says that only meager details of the ter
rible murder at sea on board the three
masted American schooner Olive Pecker
have as yet been received. The crew of
six men are at Bahia, over 1000 miles dis
tant, and will he sent to the United States
for trial at the earliest possible date. The
tragedy occurred off the South American
coast. Complaints made by the men were
on account Of hard work and insufficient
food.
John Lend and companion crept into
the cabin while Capt. Whitman and First
Mate Saunders we're asleep and killed
both in their hunks. They then kindled
a fire in the afterhold. 1t was only when
the schooner was in flames that the rest of
the crew knew anything of the tragedy,
and when the alarm was given they had
barely time to escape, the captain and first
mate being missed only as the party left
the burning vessel.
