An attempt was made yesterday to

responded to the call to accomplish
anything, and the matter was dropped
for while. There is 30 doubt that
such a meeting will be arranged.

and Little Rock, Ark, will leave for

last night for Kansas City.
MANY people nave wondered who was
responsible for the perfect condition
of Market hall and the fact of keeping
from the nostrls of the visitors the
various dog odors. This has been
maintained through the employment OF
John Lynch, who was engaged by
Supt. Clayton. Twice each day Mr.
Lynch sprinkled the floor of the hall
with liquid and powder preparation,
which seemed to do It's work well, as
no unpleasant odors were to be found
in the hall.
The present meeting resulted in the
formation of a field club, which is 20
be composed of dog owners Of the
states OF Wisconsin, North and South
Dakota, Iowa and Minnesota. The
initial meeting was held in the rooms
of the secretary yesterday afternoon
There were about twenty prominent
owners present. The meeting spent
the time discussing matters pertaining
to practical exhibit of dogs in the
field. The meeting adopted the name
OF western Field Trial club Mr..

a committee of one on constitution and

at the next meeting which will be
held In St Paul In about two weeks.
There will be only two classes en-

SHARP SLUMP IN FUNDS
SENSATIONAL ELIMINATION OF
SPANISH FINANCIAL ANXIETY
The Press Calls Upon the Govern
ment to Stop the Panic by an
Explicit Statement of Interna-
honaI RelatiOns-Madrid Papers
Comment Upon the Defense Bill.

MADRID, March 1.-THE anxiety as
to the relations between Spain and the
United States, which have peryaded
financial and commercial circle for
several days, eliminated on Thursday
In a heavy fall in funds, all securities
of the exterior and interior debts de-
Ginning l per cent. Treasury bonds
declined l to per cent. Cuban bonds
went down per cent. Bank of Spain
shares dropped from Alb to All, and
Tobacco share went down from 255 ia
240. Foreign exchanges have risen in
an unprecedented degree, the prices on
Paris being at a SO premium, and on
London at SO premium.
All the newspapers call upon the gov
eminent to stop the panic by prompt
and clear statement as to the real con-
ditions existing in Cuba, and also de-
filming the international relations. The
newspapers re-echo the profound SEN
sation and displeasure caused by the
United States sending the Montgomery
to Havana, and by the appropriation of
$50, 000 900 for the national defense.
On the other hand it is said in Off
cial circles and announced by the pa
pers that, while nothing fresh has oc-
CURED in Cuba or the relations between
Spain and the United States to justify

There was a great crowd, but no

will indemnify Spain for giving indie

q Balon d'Essai, but also as displaying
a recognition Of public sentiment in

any government to propose a sale Of

TO PROTECT AQUATIC FOWL.
"a - ms ss-h e-if
Legislature Will Be Asked to Enact
"a Law Prohibiting Bird Shoot
--.. Ing in the Spring.

Executive Agent Fullerton said yes
terday that one of the first matters to
be brought before the next legislature
by the commission would be a PROPOSE
ton to entirely prohibit the shooting
of aquatic fowl in the spring.
The season in Minnesota is open from
Sept. 1 until April Is. Already large
fiocks of Mallard ducks have been seen
through the state making their way
from the slOughs of the lower Mississippi
and the open waters of the South. Mr.
Fullerton says that the immense f1ocks
of ducks and geese which used to fly
through the state and breed in our
marshes and lakes can no longer he
seen. He attributed the decrease in
the feathered population to the fact
that the Marshes. SloughS and even
lakes of the state had been rapidly
drying up of late years. He also thinks
that spring shooting has been largely
responsible for the scarcity of ducks
and geese. '~'" -
The old ducks fly over the state in
the spring looking for a place to nest
and hatch their young. They are
frightened by the sportsmen's and pot
hunters guns alike, and do not tarry,
but fly until they find a more congenial
place to breed.
A majority of the sportsmen Of the
state are in favor Of dbing away with
does spring shooting destroy the old
birds, but those who are not killed
are so badly scared at the incessant
pop of the sportsmen' s. shot guns that
they never stop until they get into the
secluded regions of the North, where
they raise their young.
Mr.. Fullerton says that the drying
up of the marshes and lakes of the
state is one Of the results of the de-
struction of our forests. The trees,
whose friendly shadows overhang the
shores of the lakes, prevent the sun
from getting full play. This has been
assigned by experts as being the most
potent factor in the drying up Of the
little lakes dotted through the state
aside from the occasional droughts.
1t was the intention of the legisla-
ture when the present game law was
passed to do away with spring shoot
ing by fixing the termination of the
open season April Is. Up to the time
the law was passed the ducks did not
commence to fly at the very earliest
before April l. and sometimes the sea-
son closed before the migration be-
gan in earnest
The exceptionally open season this
year and the fact that for the past
two years pot hunters and sportsmen
have had at least fifteen days spring
shooting, has aroused the commission
to the necessity for an amendment to
the present game law.

A Few DOn'ts.

(For those who run dog shows.)
Don't think no one else can run a dog
show. e
Don't think because you run a dog show
that 1t must be success and no outside as
sistance is needed.
Don't scorn the newspapers that help you.
You may be glad of their good will some
other time when it may not be easy to
get it.
Don't think newspaper reporters attend
your show because they like it. They are
obliged to be there. Fate has so wiled it.
Don't contract the barking habit If YOU
SEQ what you don't want, remember it was
not prepared for you.
Don't blame reporters for mistakes of
printers. Remember that your dogs have
names that never were invented in heaven
or Hades,- and no sane printer can read and
believe them at the same time. Some of
them require two days thought and a ref
erence library.
Don't fail to remember that the tone lent
to bench show through the use of the
names of the lady patronesses has more to
do with the success Of the event than the
Importance of those who run the show.

DINNER FOR THE PRINCE.
Elaborate State Function at the
White House in HOnar of His
ROYAL HiUhness,

WASHINGTON, March 11-Prince
Albert Of Belgium was given a dinner
by the president at the executive man,
sion tonight in honor of his visit to
the capital. The dinner began at 5
o'clock and was served in the main
corridor, the state dining room being
too small to accommodate those who
were invited to meet the heir pre-
sumptive of the Belgian throne.
The corridor was adorned for the oc-
casion with orchids and La France
roses, the prevailing colors being red
and white. Music was furnished by
the Marine band, which was stationed
in the conservatory. The draperies in
which vari-colored incandescent cleo
trio lights had been set by the White
house electrician, added greatly to the
beautiful effect.
The prince escorted Mrs. Mckinley
into the dining hail. while the presl
dent took the arm of Mrs. Hobart, wife
of the vice president
Before the dinner the president met
the invited guests in the East room,
which was handsomely decorated with
rare plants, and in which a musicale
was given after the dinner was over.

WASHINGTON, March 11.-Most of
the time of today's cabinet meeting
was taken up in the discussion of
measures which have been put into
operation for the acquisition of naval
vessels by the government. One of
the members said, after the meeting:
1T is now altogether probable that
We will secure two vessels that are I'M
der construction for the Brazilian gov
eminent. 1t is not possible at this
time to say just how many ships in all
the government will be able to secure
1t has options on number that have
been offered, but nothing is likely to
be definitely accomplished in the way
of acquiring them until an examina-
tion is made into their condition, for
which purpose a naval officer has been
dispatched ahead.
I'VE do not want a lot of vessels
that other nations contracted to be
built and now find are not up to eX-
pectations. l should not be surprised
if the president would be able to get
about five or six vessels in all. The
fact is notorious that there are not
a great many really good vessels to be
had. but 1 should not be surprised if
we are able to get a half dozen for
midable ones at least.
THE $50,000 900 appropriated for war
preparations will be expended in this
country, except such as may be used
in the purchase of ships and in the
acquisition of munitions of war that
are not obtainable here.
England's Sympathy.
Eyes. I think the sympathy of the
British government in this controversy
is with the United States. At any
rate, she does not side with Spain. L
do mean by this statement to have
you infer that the Englishmen will
openly advocate our course and extend
us substantial help, but will give US
their moral support"
The navy department has now rea-
son to believe that it has secured the
two warships, Amazonas and her sis
ter ship, now building in England for
Brazil. 1t was stated at the cabinet
meeting today, by Secretary Long,
that the naval attache at London,
Lieut.. Colwell, had almost completed
the negotiations for the sale. So far,
however, the final notification from
him that mis- offer has been accepted
has not yet reached the navy depart
ment.
The negotiations for the purchase
of the two Japanese cruisers, now
building in this country at Philadel-
phia and San Francisco, are off and
the present indications are that no
further steps will be taken towards
acquiring these ships. The japanese
government appears to be even more
DESTROYS of securing these ships than
the United States and, owing to the
delicate character of the aspect of af-
fairs between Russia and Japan, it is
felt that the needs of Japan are quite
as urgent as those of this country.
