FLOUR OUTPUT.

Minneapolis, June 1.-THE North
western Miller reports the flour output
last week as follows:
Minneapolis-It is not improbable
that the output will be fully as large
as last week. Never in the history
have Minneapolis mills been operated
as they have the past four months and
a half. The flour market was rather
more active last week in that domestic
buying was brisk. Sales of the Minne-
apolis mills Appropriated 100000 bar
resi-. Sales were light last week and
export shipments were T,7O0 barrels
against 10000 week before, $500 in
1896 and $4,000 in 1895.
Superior Duluth-F'lour mills were
running Monday and the output for
the current week is estimated at 10000
to $1,000 barrels. Scattering domestic
orders came in last week to an extent
making quite showing in the aggre-
gate.
st. Louis-Business was exceedingly
dull Export business Jagged, buyers
preferring to wait until the market
steadies up on new wheat basis. st.
Louis will be able to do some business
when the crop begins moving.
Milwaukee-The demand for flour i'm
proved considerably.

HER SECOND ATTEMPT.
WACO IDA" AGAIN ATTEMPTS TO
END HER LIFE.
Took Morphine Last Night And Occupied
A Physicians Time Until 9 O'clock
This Morning.

Ida Douglass, better known as Wa
co Ida" made another attempt to take
her flight from this world last night,
this being the second attempt in the
past few months.
She is a. dusky female who conducts
a saloon at the corner of West Hous-
ton and North East streets, and who is
as familiar in police circles as is Geo.
Alverson, the Chronic drunk and down.
She was recently arrested and lodg-
ed in the county Jail for attempting to
murder her husband, Louis Douglas,
and has only been out for few days.
Since securing her liberty Ida has got
along nicely with Louis until yesterday
when, it is said, they quarreled as of
old. Ida became downhearted and re-
solved to find peace in death and ac-
cordingly went to west side drug
store about 10 o'clock and purchased
a large dose of morphine.
Coming out of the place she met De-
tectives Shoaf and McClosky and told
them that she was going to commit
suicide The officers, however, took the
matter as joke and paid no attention
to it until later they heard that she
had put her threat into execution and
was at the point of death in a back
room of her saloon.
She was Immediately carried to the
city hospital, where Assistant City
Physician Withers attended her, rem
dering all assistance possible, which
resulted in her being brought around
all right and her discharge from the
place at o'clock this morning appar-
emily as we'll as ever.
1t is said she was pretty we'll under
the influence of liquor when she took
the deadly drug, which aided greatly
in her restoration, the whisky prevent
ing the morphine getting in its worst

BARNART0 HAS HEIRS.
TWO OF THEM LOOM UP IN NEW

They Are Cigar Makers And Declare

New York. June ia dispatch to
the World from Boston, says:
Two men in Boston claim to be first
cousins of Barney Barnato. They are
Barnett Myers and Wolf Myers, cigar
makers at the north end.
Barney Barnatos right name was
Barney Isaacs. His father and our
mother were brother and sister," said
Barnett Myers. I'VE grew up togeth-
er in London and my brother and
came here with our parents about for
ty years ago.
"A short time before we started for
America l met Barney Isaacs on the
street. We were both named Barney
after our uncle, Barnett Isaacs. He
shouted across the street to me: How
dye do, Barney?'
And 1 shouted back, How do we do,
Barney?'

PURE WATER.
CHICAGO SCHOOL CHILDRENS
HEALTH ASSURED.
After Nine Months Of Wrangling, The
School Foard Comes To Decision
In The Matter,

Chicago, June 17.-After rine months
of wrangling, the board of education
last night definitely and finally set
tied the water problem in the public
schools for a period of three years. 1t
authorized the award of contracts to
two filter companies for all the schools
in the city, save twenty, for $SS,00O,
the filtering plants in the schools now
in existence and those to be erected
to be installed and maintained at the
expense of the companies for the du-
ration of the contract. When Ex-
Health Commissioner Kerr ordered the
board to either provide pure water
supply for the two hundred thousand
children in it's care or shut off the city
water supply nine months ago, the
water question: was taken UP. 1t has
been agitated ever since and for two or
three months the city water supply
was shut off, entailing great suffering
among the children.
Three weeks ago the supply was
turned on again with the authority Of
the Health department and it was
agreed to wait until after the summer
vacation before taking any further
steps toward the solution Of the water
problem. This was because the SEN
timent of the members of the board
was so thoroughly divided between
different makes of filters-the boiling
process, spring water schemes and
many others-that a settlement SEEM
ed impossible. Last night the board
committee took another turn at the
water question and when its labors
were brought to an end a settlement
had been effected. 1t was found by
the committee that two filter firms
had put in bids of almost equal price
and had an equal number of supporters
on the committee. A compromise was
then arranged, the companies to di-
vide the work evenly at the rate OF
$SS, 900 for all the schools for three year
der. The twenty schools ordered equip
der The twenty schols ordered equip
ped with boiling and cooling apparatus
are to be equipped as ordered, but the
filters will be placed in the remaining

Topeka, Kas., June 1.-THE commit
tee appointed by Gov. Leedy' to con-
fer with Oklahoma and Texas commit
tees in efforts to secure reduced freight
rates, has made its report to the gov
ernor. Concisely stated the report
of the committee is: That the rates
from Kansas to the gulf have been
found unjust and excessive; that 1t
costs too much for Kansas farmers to
ship grain south and that the question
must be settled soon in one of the four
ways suggested to be taken up in this
order: First, attempted remedial con-
ference with the railroads by the gov
ernor of railroads commission with a
view towards having reduction be-
tween now and fall when the grain is
shipped south heavily.

Second, the use of the special session
club on the railroads if the first plan
fails.
Third, the calling of special session
of the Legislature, If the two PROPOSE
lions do not work and the attempt to
pass a maximum freight bill.
Fourth, the immediate and serious
consideration of the building of a
north and south railroad through Kan
sas to the gulf as last resort II the
above named three courses shall re-
suit in failure.

The Chances of the Republic Becoming
State.

The Chances of the Republic Becoming
State.
New York, June IA special to the
Herald from Washington, says:
There are fifty seven Senators who
can be counted as certain to vote for
the ratification of the Hawaiian annex
alton. There are eleven other Senators
who are undecided as to. how they will
vote and twenty-one who are opposed
to the treaty. Those in favor of an
nexation are:
Aldrich, Allen, Alison, Baker, Bur-
rows, Cannon, Carter, Chandler, Clark,
Cuulom, Davis, Deboe. Elkins, Fair
banks, Foraker, Frye, Gallinger, Gear,
Heitfeld, Hoar, Jones, (Nev); Kyle,
Lodge, Mcbride, Mcmillan, Mantle,
Mason, Morgan, Morrill,, Nelson, Pen
rose, Perkins, Petus, Proctor, Quay,
Rawlins, Roach, Sewell, Shoup, Spoon
err, Teller, Thurston, Turner, Turpie,
Warren, Wellington, Wetmore, Wilson,
wolcott, Plat, Comm; Platt, IN. YO;
Hale, Hanna, Hansbrough, Hawley.
Those who are undecided are:
Butler, Daniel, German, KenIiey
Harris, CKan); McLaurin. Mallory,
Martin, Mitchell, Murphy, Smith.
Those opposed to the ratification of
the treaty are:
Bacon, Bate, Berry, Caffery Chiffon,
Clay, Cockrell, Faulkner, George, Gray
Harris, (Tenn.); Jones, (Ark); Lind
say, McEnery, Mills, Pasco, Pettigrew,
Tillman, Vest, Walthall, White.
This is the result of a careful can
vass of the Senate. The advocates OF
annexation are confident of their abil-
ity to secure at least three more votes
and thus bring about the ratification
of the treaty. Some of the Senators
who are non-commital are inclined to
favor annexation, but want to hear
the arguments on both sides before n
nally deciding. Others are inclined to
oppose the treaty, but they are open to
conviction, If its supporters can bring
forward convincing arguments.

SHOULD GO TO WORK.

The Dusky Hawaiian Queen Kicks Be-
cause She is Not Provided For.
Ney York, June ia special to the
Journal, from Washington. says:
In an interview with Ex-Queen Lii
uokalani she said of the proposed trea-
ty between the United States and Haw-
ali:
Fifteen hundred people are giving
away my country. The people of my
country don't want to be annexed to
the United States. Nor do the people
of the United States want annexation.
1t is the work of fifteen hundred people
mostly Americans who have settled in
Hawaii. OF this number those who are
native born Americans are of Amer
lean parentage. Some of my people
want the island annexed. The popu-
lation of the islands is 109, 900. OF this
number 10000 are native Hawaiians.
The rest are Americans, German, Por-
tugese, japanese, Chinese, English and
a small proportion from other coun-
tries. The fifteen hundred Americans
who are responsible for what was done
today are running the affairs of the is
lands.
There is no provision made in this
treaty for me. In the Harrison treaty
was allowed $4,000 per year, but that
treaty never went into effect. / have
never received one dollar from the Uni
ted States. No one looked after my
interests in the proceedings of the
treaty. Yet my people who form so
large population of the islands would
want justice done me-"

WILL FORGERY.

San Francisco, Cal, June 17.-During
the trial of the Davis will contest a
sensation was created by Mr.. e. Max
well, paying teller of the First Nation
al bank of this city, who was called as
an expert to pass upon the signature
of the alleged will. He declared the
signature to be a forgery and ex-
pressed the conviction that the for
gerry was committed by Alex Boyd, the
partner of the deceased, who holds the
same relation to the legatees as did
Davis.
