FROM ALL OVER THE GLOBE
BY Telegraph Giving a Brief Re-
sumo of the Weeks Events.
RELIABLE AND INTERESTING.
That Canadian Lumber Dhiculty is LA
BILE to Cause the u. $. to Retaliate
Upon Canada The President has Is
sued Orders for Our New Possessions.
Talk of Retaliation Upon Canada.

The question as to whether this gov
eminent is in position to retaliate
upon Canada for the enactment by
Ontario of the prohibiting the expor-
tation of logs has taken another ka-
leidosopic turn. The treasury depart
ment was recently on the eve of in
structing collectors to refuse entry to
all kinds of Canadian lumber when
Secretary Hay automatically inter
posed with the suggestion that action
be postponed until the meeting Of the
joint high commission in August.
Within the past week the subject has
taken another phase. There is little
doubt that the government is inclined
to retalitory considerations by the dis
couraging results of the negotiations
in London, looking to the clearing of
the field for the assembling of the
Joint Canadian commission. 1t is gath
cred that the British foreign Office,
which had seemed DESTROYS to meet
Mr.. Choates advances in the spirit Of
compromise that promised well, has
been again influenced by Canada's re-
fusal TO agree to anything less than a
concession of all of their demands,
which has stopped all progress. The
department of state has referred TO
the treasury department the arrange
ment of plan to protect the interests
of the U. 5. and decision from Secre-
tary Gage is expected very soon. The
treasury department now has two
courses open, both being retaliatory.
The first is the preparation of an
amendment to the tariff act largely
increasing the duties on lumber and
forest products imported into the L. 5.

Cass COunty's Wheat Crop VIII not
Equal the Needs for Bread and
seed - I,42O Y. M. q. a. branches

Cass County's wheat Crop.

From reliable sources it is learned
that the coming wheat crop OF Cass
county will not be equal to the needs
for seed and bread. Conservative
farmers in nearly every township re-
port 4 large acreage plowed up for
corn and beans, and fair estimate
will place the total acreage in the
whole county thus lost at fully 1000
acres, which means n loss of at least
30, 600 bushels. In no case is Weld
of 10 bushels per acre promised, the
general claim being but five Wheat
looked fairly well April 1, but the
warm weather for the two or three
weeks following was extremely favor
able for the propagation of the fly, and
not field has escaped. This will be
extremely hard year on farmers in
southern Michigan, and especially
upon those who are in debt. Corn is
at least two weeks late, and there are
very few good fields of clover.

LynchIng Nome Too Good.

While the s-year-old daughter of
Rufus Van Patton, who resides two
miles south of Berrien Springs, was re-
turning from school, she was assaulted
by an unknown tramp and was so
badly injured by the brute that she
cannot live. The child found her way
home several hours after the assault
was committed and told her parents
what had happened, which aroused the
father, who started in pursuit of the
brute, with the determination of kill
ing him upon sight. After searching
the surrounding country for several
hours he was compelled to give up the
hunt. Late in the afternoon of the
following day Sheriff Ferguson placed
under arrest, charging him with the
crime, young man who gave the
name of Harry Smith. The accused
says he is not guilty and in fact never
visited the community in which the
crime was committed. Reports from
Berrien Springs show that many lead
ing citizens are maddened by the ma
ture of the crime and publicly eX-
pressed themselves in favor of lynch
ing the brute, if identified by the little
girl. In order to protect the life of
the alleged tramp and probably to pre-
vent Berrien county from getting a
record of a lyching bee, Smith will be
held in the county Jail at st. Joseph
to await hearing.

WAR NOT ES,


The department is not yet settled in
the acceptance of Gen. Otis decision
that the Spanish government is en-
titled TO all of the cannon in the Phil
ippines outside of those brought in by
the American army. The paragraph
in the peace treaty relating TO the
ownership of this artillery admits OF
a double construction, but the weight
of opinion in the department is that
the United States is at least entitled
to the possession of the guns captured
and surrendered before the signing OF
the peace protocol. This would in
clude the batteries at Cavite, Corregi-
dor island, at the mouth of Manila bay,
and probably those in the Notifications
of Manila itself.
The events of the week past have
army in the Philippines, without
which, according to the best authori-
ties in Manila, it would be attempting
the impossible TO expect TO establish
American supremacy in the islands.
The inadequacy of the American forces
is said to be responsible for the large
total loss in the number of small en-
counters, without material results as
a compensation. Most of the fighting
has been in territory which the Amer
leans had swept, but have been com
PEELED TO abandon because they could
not spare troops to hold it.
Two companies of the Sd infantry
and two companies of the 22d infantry,
forming Gen. Lawton's rear guard, re-
turning from San Miguel to Balinag
on the 23d, escorting a signal corps
party which was picking up wire laid
with Gen. Lawton's expedition, found
that the insurgents had reoccupied the
country and hard fighting followed
from daylight until the Americans
camped at night. But the troops com
pleted their work, though harassed by
the enemy. One American was killed
and ii wounded. The troops captured
20 prisoners and so rifles.
Gen Lawton, with most of his troops,
has arrived at Malolos His expedition
marched 800 miles in 20 days, had 22
fights, captured % towns, destroyed
800, 900 bushels of rice and only lost six
men killed and 81 wounded. On the
other hand, Gen. Lawton estimates
that his troops killed 400 insurgents
aud wounded double that number.
A scouting party of American troops
encountered a body of insurgents at
Santa Rita and the Americans being
reinforced by Brig Gen. Funston with
the South Dakota regiment, warm
fight ensued. A lieutenant and five
men of the American force wero
wounded and 10 of the insurgents were
killed and several captured.
Gen. Hughes, who has been APP
pointed TO relieve Col. Smith as COVER
nor of the Visayan district, will be
succeed as provost-marshal by Brig
Gen. Williston, who recently arrived
at Manila in command of the troops of

President VIII visit the West.

President Mckinley has positively
decided to go as far west this summer
as ST. Paul, but whether he will go on
TO the Yellowstone Park and the coast,
much depends upon circumstances
such that it is now impossible to make
decision. Nor is the date of his visit
to st. Paul yet decided. He intends to
be there at the time the 13th Mime
sofa; the South Dakota and other regi-
ments arrive on their return from the
Philippines, when a great reception
will be accorded them.

Farmers in a Dilemma.

The burning of the creamery at
Grass Lake has put the farming com
munity whereabouts in a dilemma.
The creamery was built four years ago,
since which time the farmers have
been steadily adding to their dairy
stock until at present there are over
400 patrons owning from five to 20 cows
each, and some even more. What to
do with the milk during the rebuilding
is a vexing problem, as there are but
few families prepared to care for the
large product The probability is that
a new separator will be bought at
once and business resumed as fast as
practicable pending the rebuilding.

Coney Island visited by Fire.

Coney Island was visited by fire on
the Goth which destroyed $3.50, 900
worth of property. Fire broke out
simultaneously on both ends of 1.-The
Bowery," about five blocks apart and
close to the beach, and the places
where the fires originated were both
almost inaccessible for fire engines
The fact that the fires broke out ST.
multaneously is taken as indication
that they were of incendiary origin.
