overruled all the motions of objections
entered by defendants counsel to the
five indictments found by the grand
jury against United States Senator M.
S. Quay, and ex-State Treasurer Benja-

clerk to enter pleas Of not guilty.
This being done, District Attorney
Graham stated that the commonwealth
was ready to proceed to the trial at once
and asked the court to fix an early date
for the trial. Shapley stated that the
books and accounts presented at the
magistrates hearing were voluminous.
These matters of evidence he and his
colleagues had not had an opportunity
to examine. They desired to have an
expert 60 over these accounts carefully
before they would be ready to combat
the allegations of the commonwealth,
and he asked that date not earlier than
Dec. IL be fixed.
Four of the five bills of Indictment

defendants with conspiracy to misuse
the funds of the state on deposit in the
Peoples bank for their own benefit and
profit, and the fifth indictment charged
Benjamin J. Haywood with Illegally
leaning 100000 of the state funds over
which he had control. Demurrers were
entered by defendants counsel last
week to the first four indictments, but
Judge Finletter declared these demur-
rers not sustained. A motion to quash
the fifth indictment was also overruled
by the judge.

HALE OPPOSED TO TREATY.
Maine Senator Does Not Favor Annexa.
ton of Philippines

ton OF philippines,
WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-Senator Eu-
gene Hale of Maine today announced
his opposition to the peace treaty which
is being formulated III Paris. He is op.
posed to the acquisition of the Philip
pines and his antagonism to the treaty
which deals with the Philippine ques,
ton.
1.-THE negotiation Of the treaty, unfor-
inmate as it is" said the senator today,
''by no means insures the actual annex
alton of the Philippine islands. 1t is
uncertain when the treaty will be
signed or when it will be submitted to
the senate and still more uncertain
whether it will ever be ratified. The
responsibility is so vast and the solicit
tude of the public is SO great that ample
time will be given to its discussion and
to getting the real facts before the
American people.
"Many things will be found out
which are not known, and the evils OF
the proposed annexation will so grow
upon the public mind and upon con-
gress and upon the president that it is
by no means unlikely that within six
months or year everybody instead Of
being for annexation of the islands will
want to be rid Of them.
1.-THE people of the United States will
find out that the commerce Of the Phil
ippines is very limited in extent; that
they are inhabited by people whose
habits and wants forbid an increase of
trade"

MORRISON ELECTED BISHOP OF IOWA
DIR. Green Was Second In Race, With Cor
nell OF Sioux City Last.

CEDAR RAPIDS, Ia, Dec. 1.-The con-
test over the election for bishop of the
Iowa diocese of the Episcopal church
was brought to close last evening by
the election on the second ballot of Rev.
DIR. Theodore Morrison, rector of Epip-
hany church, Chicago.
The greatest excitement prevailed.
Col. Charles A. Clark, OF Cedar Rapids,
spoke two hours in defense of DIR. Green,
declaring that there was nothing to sub
stantiate the statements made by paid
detectives. He produced evidence to
show that part OF the statements were
untrue and said it was safe to presume
all were untrue.
Judge Trimbell, of Keokux, spoks in
opposition to DIR. Green. He said the
fact that evil report about DIR. Green
were in circulation was evidence suffi-
cient to defeat him for the bishopric.
Then Rev. DIR. Morrison, of Chicago,
and Rev. Dr. McIllwain, of Keokuk,
were nominated. DIR. Morrison led on
the first ballot.
The decisive ballot resulted as fol-
lows: Clerical: Morrison, 26; Green,
IS: Cornell of Sioux City, 10.
Lay votes: Morrison, "a; Green, 81:
Cornell, 2. The election of DR.. Morri-
son was made unanimous on motion OF
DR.. Green. DIR. Green received a par
tial vindication last night, being elected
amember OF the standing committee for
the ensuing year. DIR. Morrison was
born in Ottawa, ILL.,, and is 48 years old.
He graduated at the Illinois college,
Jacksonville, and received his ministe-
rial training at the general theological
seminary in New York. His first
charge was at Pekin, ILL.,, going to Chi
cago in 1875 to become rector of Epiph-
any church and has occupied that posi-
ton ever since.

ANSWER.

Your formula gives about 3.6b Of
ammonia; assuming 13% available for
the acid phosphate, you have SEE avail
able phosphoric acid ard 1.5% Of pot
ash. This is hardly enough potash for
sandy soil, while the percentage Of am
monia is high if the soil is we'll supplied
with humus. This formula will cost
about $40 or $17 per ton. There is some
advantage in the use Of the nitrate of
soda to start the plant off promptly, but
the same effect can be obtained from the
cotton seed meal by putting it into the
ground several weeks before planting
the seed. There is some risk Of having.
the nitrate of soda washed out by heavy
spring iains.
Cotton seed meal is our cheapest COM
mcrcial source of nitrogen, and being
organic, its nitrogen is not Immediately
available, but becomes so as the meal

The following formula would be
cheaper and equally rs good:
Cotton seed meal 900 lbs.
Acid phosphate = 1000 *
kainit 200
This would cost about $14 per ton
and analyze: ammonia o.4%, acid SGS ,
and potash I.4%.
