The Oregon Short Line has made
change in the local office by the op-
pointment of T. c. Mcmillan of Salt
Lake to succeed Charles H. Harper as
city ticket agent. Harper's resigna-
ton took effect last Thursday, and Mr..
Mcmillan arrived on Saturday and en-
tered upon his duties at once. The new
agent has been a resident of Salt Lake
but a short time, having lately came
from Minneapolis, where he held posi-
tons in the general offices of the Min
neapolis & st. Louis and the Great

German-American Cable.

New York, June 1.-THE survey for
the submarine cable which will conect
Germany with the United States by the
way of the Azores was practically COM
pleted to-day, when the cable-laying
steamship Britannia came into port. To-
morrow a full repost of the soundings
made across the Atlantic will be made
to the officers of the Commercial Gable
company, who have charge of laying
the new line. The proposed submarine
cable, permission for which was grant
ed by President Mckinley to the Ger
man Atlantic Telegraph company, will
start at Emden, Germany, touch at
Punta del Gada, Azores, and the final
landing place of the American end will
probably be at Coney Island. The line,
when completed will cost nearly S5,000,-
000 The longest stretch of the cable,
between the Azores and New York city,
will measure 2,279 miles.

It is no secret that Latonia is losing
money every day, says writer in the
Cincinnati Enquirer and I have it
from reliable authority that $500 a day
is being lost. This is because the reve-
nue. from the ring and gate is not suf-
ficient to pay the purses and other eX-
penses of the track. Latonia's expenses
average at least $4,000 a day, and it
can be seen at glance that there is no
possible chance for the promoters of
the meeting to escape without making
a good. big deficit al the end of the 20
days of racing. The Latonia people
are certainly making good their prom
iseS to conduct Latonia with an open
betting ring, but it is at a big expense.
The race-going public is receiving the
best of treatment from Latonia, anl
the least it can do .s to support t. G
track. Syndicate betting has been done
away with, and when a bettor goes to
the race course nowadays he gets a
run for his money, and his chances of
winning are just as good, if not better,
than the bookmakers'. There is no rea-
son in the world why big crowds should
not be out at Latonia. and, had there
been better weather last week. I am
sure the track would have been pat
ronized more than the week before.
As I have stated time and again in
this column, that Latonia is worthy of
the support of the Cincinnati public,
and, If there is any desire at all to see
the turf thrive again in this section, it
might be well to show it by increased
a attendance

London, June 12.-The Standard this

viceroy of India Iord Curzon of Ked-

of General Lord Kitchener in India for
the economical organization of frontier
defenses and expeditions, owing to the
urgent necessity of effecting reductions in
military expenditure. 1t is probable,
therefore, that Lord Kitchener will be
withdrawn from the Soudan and appoint
ed to a high position in India.

of the sentencing of Colonel Arguelles.
Filipino commissioner. to twelve years
Imprisonment have just been obtained
here. The charge against the Colonel
was that in conversation with Filipino
officers he predicted that disorders with
in the insurgent territory would lead to
civil war. and therefore. he said he con-
sidered autonomy under the Americans
preferable to independence The Filipino
Congress tried him on the charge of
treason and heated debate over au-
tonomy followed. Finally, the Colonel
was sentenced to death, but this was

WHO WILL BE GOVERNOR !?

Louisville, Ky, June 2o-The second
day of the Democratic Convention was
a blank so far as the proceedings of
records 90. Under the surface, how
ever. it was busy day of electioneer-
ing and wire pulling. Two short ses-
sions were held, one in the morning and
one in the evening. At the former
committees were appointed and recess
was taken until evening to allow Them to
work. This evening, the credentials

work, the convention adjourned until

having control of the machinery of the
convention. This was demonstrated
twice today in the forcing of an adj
jOUrnment.
Chairman Redwine and the other tenn
porary officers, it is believed, will be
retained in the permanent organization.
Tonight the Hardin people are busy
working on the Stone delegates, for it is
in this direction their only hope lies.
They are using the argument that the
Goebel followers are using the Stone
Goebel combination for purely selfish
purposes, and that they will attempt to
nominate the Kenton county leader for
Governor, regardless of the tacit under
standing that Stone should receive this
prize.
Meanwhile there is no sign of weak
NESS in the combination. Stone or
Goebel may be nominated for Governor,
and the report of the committee on
credentials may decide the race. The
make up of the remainder of the ticket
will depend upon the selection for Gov
ernor. The platform will declare for
Bryan and silver. and is likely to con-
tain an antitrust plank.

tempt 10 Co-ceaI the Crime.
Parties are Prominent

Valdosta, Ga June 22.-Mrs. Jane
Graves, of Alexanderville, was brought
here this morning and lodged in Jail on
the charge of numbering her husband.
The tragedy occurred Sunday and was
reported as a case of suicide. The citi-
zens in that community were not salts
fed with this theory and the coroner's
jury investigated the case for two days.
Enough circumstantial evidence was
gotten to justify the arrest of the wo-
man. 1t was feared for a while that
the herring would develop into a lynch
ing bee, so strong was the feeling. The
most startling testimony was that of
George Register. who worked with
Graves, and who stated that he saw
Mrs. Graves shoot her husband, then
throw the empty cartridges out of the
weapon and hastily place the pistol in
his hand as he lay upon the floor i'll the
throes of death. 1t was also stated that
Graves and his wife had quarreled be-
cause she had been out riding with a
young man. She intended going out
again in the afternoon, but he forbade
her and the quarrel was renewed Ac-
cording to the statement of Register,
she was in the kitchen when her hus-
band started to the lot to stop boy
from hitciring up horse with which she
was going driving. As he crossed the
porch two shots rang out and he drop
ped to the floor dead in moment. The
woman is intelligent. neat and attrac-
tive. aged about 40 years.
She says that she does not know who
did the killing The case will probably
outrank the famous Mobiles case, as the
parties stand higher in the community
than the Mobiles did. The murdered
man was prosperous farmer and ma
chinist.

TYPHOID PROPAGATION.
Army Surgeons Decide That Water
Supply Has Nothing to do With 1t.

study the distribution of typhoid fever
in army camps. is busily engaged in ar
ranging the matter collected, prepara-
tory to making its final report.
This board is the first that has ever
been appointed to study the propagation
of disease in army camps by the history
of individual regiments.
The report will indicate that the water
supply had practically little to do with
the spread of typhoid. This is con-
trary to all previous medical theory in
typhoid propagation. The appearances
and spread of the disease. the report will
say, indicates that it was transmitted
through the atmosphere, by the wind
carrying about dust containing the
dried germs of typhoid and by the
agency OF flies.

FARMERS CAN'T FORM TRUSTS.
Why Agriculture in the South is De-
pressed.

Washington. June 22.-Joseph b.
Ager. President of the Maryland State
Grange. was before the Industrial Com
mission today. He said that trust
among the farmers such as was suggest
ed by Mr.. Havemeyer was impracticable.
owing to the difficulty of getting the
farmers to hold up prices.
Mr. Ager considered the condition of
the average farmer as worse than 1t
was 20 years ago.
l.. w. Youmans, of South Carolina,
occupied the witness stand during the
afternoon session. He said the agricul-
tural interest of the South was great
~ depressed, and he attributed the de-
preston to the fact that silver was not
recognized as money metal. he SAID
there had not been an increase of the
volume Of money to correspond with the
increase of population. As conse-
uuence there had been a general depre-
citation of values. He was proceeding
to develop his views upon this point
when Major Farquhar made point of
order against the character of the testi-
mony. and this point was sustained by
the chair Hon. A. l.. Harris), after a
somewhat spirited encounter between
Representative Livingstone and the Re
publican members.
Mr.. Youmans said he had no fault to
find with colored labor, and that he
preferred it infinitely to imported labor.
Il employ 300 or 400 negroes, he
said. sand / find them docile and willing

He thought, however that the negro
was. as a rule irresponsible to the efforts
to educate him. and while he willingly
paid his share for such efforts at edllca-
ton. he considered the money so spent
as thrown away.
