IOWA NEWSPAPERS.
WORK OF SNEAK THIEVES.

[Colfax Clipper.l
Petty sneaks are making church go-
ing unpopular among the farmers over
in the Newburg neighborhood where on
Sunday night of last week they went
drought the carriages and wagons and
stole robes, overcoats, mittens, ladies'
wells, whips, ETC., from the worshipers
inside the church of God. On the same
night the village school house was rob-
bed of books and apparatus. If such
thieves could be caught a good horse
whipping would be about the proper
for them.

TREATMENTS no1YoKE "TRIP.
Says He is Enjoying 1t Very Much-A
 Narrow Escape.


 Holyoke, Mass, June 19,-"I am en- toying this trip very much indeed, and had no idea the country about here was so beautiful" said President Mckinley to-day as he was seated in rocking chair in the observatory on the summit of Mt. Tom. His whole manner and the great improvement that is noticeable in his face bore out the assertion and were an earnest of what results will yet be ment are concerned before the New England journey is ended. Almost the first incident of the day was the narrow escape of the presidents carriage from being struck by a runaway horse just as the party emerged from the Whiting residence preparatory to taking the train for Northampton. But q miss is as good as mile, and there was twenty feet to spare in this case so the only harm done was simply a little excite ment for the moment. The day was spent in attending the exercises at Mt Holyoke college. Tuesday will also be spent in the same way. The president will present the graduating class with their diplomas, Governor Roger Wolcott will address them and Rev. Justin Smith, D. D., president of the college board of trustees, will also make an ad- dress. Miss Grace Mckinley, the niece of the president, is one of the graduat- ing class.

ward crew, who has just returned from Paris, accompanied by l.. G. Coleman '99 president of the Weld boat club of Cambridge. They came upon the Yale launch at noon, which met them at New London. Later in the day C.. s. Mum ford, a prominent Harvard oarsman and coach, arrived and will assist Coach StorroW for several days. On account of the long work this morning the var sity was not given much practice to- night. They went out about 6 o'clock and pulled about four miles altogether. The eight is not yet showing the inn provement hoped for, but it is hoped that under the coaching of MT. Mum ford the men will have new life A good many individual faults have been developed, and some men have fallen back into old faults that it was hoped they had been coached out of. This is particularly true of the bow men, who instead of swinging for and aft of the Keel show tendency to swing against each other across the boat It is belev- cd, however, that the next few days will witness an improvement.

HAMPTON OF ARMY C4NTEEN.
Pennsylvania State Courts Decision
 wal Probably be Contested. -

Washington, June 19,-Tt is improba- ble that the war department will accept as final the decision of the Pennsylva- mia state court declaring that the army canteen is subject to state taxation. The officer in charge of the canteen at Camp Meade appealed to the war department for assistance in defending the case and the department transmitted his appli- cation to the department of justice with the request that an officer of that de- partment be assigned for that purpose. It Is believed the decision was rendered before the defense could be prepared. The principle involved is regarded as important and it is significant that the Pennsylvania decision is directly in con- flict with the formal opinion of the court of claims in the case involving the can teen. That court decided that the can- teen was tone of the instrunentalities of government" and therefore exempt from taxation.

SAMOAN ISLAND DIFFICULTY
GREAT BRIT1IN'S PROCEEDINGS
 ATTACKED IN REICHSTAG.
Baron Won BueIow Again Defines the Attitude of Germany-NViIlI Insist on the Principle of Unanimity-Another Task is to See German Subjects In- demnified for Losses and Illegal Arrest

Berlin, June 19-In the reichstag to- day the Anglo-German treaty was re- ferred to committee of twenty-one members. During the course of the de- bate Herr Leibermann von Sonnenberg attacked Great Britain's proceedings in Samoa. The minister of foreign affairs, Baron von Buelow, replied, saying: "I have no objection to again defining our attitude on the Samoa question. We shall not depart from the stipulations of the Samoan treaty nor allow others to turn us from our course. We recognize the rights of others while maintaining our own" After referring to the pow CTS of the high commission, Germany's insistence on the principle of unanimity in it's decisions and the provisional as sumption of the government of Samoa by the commission, under whose direc- tion the maritime and consular repre- sentatives were instructed to place themselves" the minister read dispatch es outlining the situation, as already fully known, the only new point being the German commissioners statement that the commission received both Mall ietoa and Mataafa as having equal rights as party leaders and the an- nouncement that the possibility of strife may be ended by the abolition of the kingship.
 Baron von Bueow next mentioned the departure from Samoa of Admiral Kautz E. B. S. Maxse, the British con- sul, and Herr Rose, the German consul, and the release of Herren Hutfnaglt and Marquardt, the two Germans arrested during the troubles "after the commits sion had assured itself of their complete innoncence," and then continued: The first work of the commission will be the restora tion of peace and legal conditions in conformity with the Samoan act. It would be in accordance with Article l of the act if, in the settlement of the future government, the wish of the in habitants was consulted by a majority vote of the recognized chiefs or by more extended vote of the people. But, I repeat emphatically, we will take no side in the local disputes or in regard to the candidates for the throne. We do not approve of the partisanship of the agents of other powers ill behalf of Nal ietoa Tanus. Another task before us is to see our subjects in Samoa indemni- fled in accordance with the principles of the laws of nations for losses through | the destruction of property or illegal ar rest. Loud cheers.) This question. however, will only be ripe for diplomatic | action after the restoration of order l hope the activity of the commission will | ras,1I+ in a inst and eouitab1e Settle- | ment. We will not cede any of our | rights, but at the same time we do not | forget that complicated international l disputes must be treated with quiet de- 1 liberation and in cool blood"

TELEPHONE TOLLS REDUCED
fl CTION TAKEN BY THE s. ". E. T.
 COMPANIES DIRECTORS.
The Charge Reduced from Tyenty-five to Fifteen Cents on Some of the Lines k Local Connection Will Hereafter De Made for Five Cents Instead of Ten Cents.

At meeting of the board of directors
 of the Southern New England Telephone company, in this city yesterday after noon the following changes were made
 in the rates for toll line charges and for
 local charges in this state. At present
 the charge for communication from any
 exchange to any other in the state has
 been twenty-five cents. Beginning July
 1 the charge will be fifteen cents, re-
 duction of ten cents, on the following
 lines: Stamford and South Norwalk,
 Bridgeport and Milford; Bridgeport and
 Derby, Bridgeport and Ansonia, New Haven and Derby, New Haven and An sonia, New London and Norwich, Wa
 terbury and Bristol Meriden and New Britain, Meriden and Middletown, New Britain and Bristol, New Britain and Southington, Southington and Water
 bury, Southington and Bristol, South ington and Meriden, Torrington and Winsted, Torrington and Litchfield, Putnam and Danielson, Rockville and Manchester, Canaan and Norfolk.
 Another reduction is that of making the charge for a local connection at public station, or from a club line sta tion or from a branch exchange into the principal exchange, five cents instead of ten cents. As to branch exchanges, it has been the rule of the company to charge the branch exchange subscriber ten cents into the main exchange and to charge nothing from a subscribers sta tion in the main exchange into the branch exchange. Thus a New Haven subscriber has been able to call Bran- ford subscriber free while the Bran- ford subscriber has paid ten cents to reach New Haven subscriber. Under the new rule the rate will be only five cents, but there will no longer be free connections given the subscriber of the principal exchange. The result of the change will be that the charge will be five cents either way between New Ha- ven and its branches, Branford and Guilford; Hartford and it's branch, Simsbury; Waterbury and it's branch, Naugatuck; New London and it's branch, Mystic and Stonington; Dan- bury and it's branch, Ridgefield; Meri- den and it's branch, Wallingford. Mill ford is somewhat peculiarly situated and is made separate division with a ten cent charge for connections with either New Haven or Bridgeport, and fifteen cents to Derby and Ansonia, and twep- ty-hve cents to the other exchanges of the company

M. WALDECK-ROUS USSEA v FAILS.
Gives Up the Task of Forming New
 French Cabinet.


 French Cabinet.
 Paris, June 19.-It was officially an- nounced late this evening that Senator Waldeck- Rousseau had declined the task of forming a new cabinet. His failure to form a cabinet is due, it is said, to the refusal of M Camille Krantz to accept the portfolio of public works, which he considers inferior to the port folio of war, held by him in the retiring cabinet But for this the Waldeck- Rousseau slate was complete. MM Poincare and Guillain made their ac- ceptance of office dependent upon the in clusion of M. Krantz. The latter, be- sides refusing the portfolio of public works, expressed his approval of certain measures of which M. Waldeck- -Rous- seau proposed to take agains tthe gen. erals and colonels who recently inspired a newspaper propaganda in favor of the army. After a formal consultation to- morrow it is expected that M. Loubet will again summon M. Poincare.
