FARMING OVERCOME.
Mr.. Brigham Thinks Free Immigra
ton Has Hurt Agriculture.

WASHINGTON, March 13-Hon. ]. A.
Brigham, secretary of agriculture, was be-
fore the industrial commission to-day. He
furnished the commission much interesting
data concerning the condition of agricul-
ture in the Ohio and upper Mississippi
valleys. He spoke as a representative of
the Patrons of Husbandry, of which order
he was the national master for many years.
Mr.. Brigham manifested disposition TO
discourage immigration, saying that 1t had
forced the settlement and agricultural de-
veiopment of the West beyond the demands
of the country lie would not shut the doors
of the United States against desirable for
eigners, but he would place such restric-
tons upon immigration as to shut out un-
educated people, or those who were pos
sessed of no property. On the whole he
considered 1t a mistake to have urged for
eigners to come TO the United States, and
thought II would have been better if the
West had been settled far more largely by
Americans. lie attributed the large influx
TO the railroad and steamship companies,
the former having lands TO sell, and both
desiring to make business.
MIR. Brigham expressed the opinion that
II would be well 10 teach the documentary
elements OF agriculture in the rural public
schools, but he did not advocate such teach
ing In any OF the colleges, except the agri-
cultural institutions. he thought general
education of farmers sons in branches bear
ing upon the subject of agriculture would
nave tendency 10 render the young men
of the country better satisfied with the life
OF a farmer and not so anxious to get into
the professions. Upon the whole. Mr.. Brig
ham said, there had been an Improvement
IN the condition of the farmer in the past
forty years. When he was young man he
worked from 4 a. until after dark for
Sl2 per month. Now the wages of farm
hands averages SIS and the hours are not
so long. The tendency is, however, towards
crop-sharins rather than the paying of
wages.

BERLIN, March 13.-The opinion is ex-
pressed in Reichstag circles that the con-
flict arising from the differences existing
between the government and the budget
committee regarding the military bill are
more serious than at first thought The
Emperor insists on the full amount asked
for. The imperial chancellor, Prince Ho-
henlOhe. conferred confidentially this after
noon with DR.. Lieber, the Centrist leader,
urging that the center should yield. DR..
Lieber replied that this impossible

the electors.
A number of leading members of the
Reichstag of all parties tonight are Of the
vote the budget committees report by about

not believe there will be a dissolution, but

United states Urged to Befriend China

NEW YORK, March ia dispatch TO
the Herald from Washington says: "A de-
termined, though unofficial, effort is being
made 10 secure the exercise by the United
States of its good offices in behalf of China.
The matter has not yet been brought Off
cially TO the attention of Secretary Hay, but
1t is understood that he is aware of the
wishes of certain interested persons and the
advantages, from their point of view,
which would accrue TO this government in
case of such action. 1t is untrue that any
appeal has been made to this government
to make any representations to foreign gov
ernments TO prevent them from seizng
Chinese territory. What is desired is that
this government shall, through its minister
i'm Picking. inform the Empress dowager of
the dangerous position China occupies and,
having done this, make public declaration
that the commercial interests of the United
States makes IL necessary that no further
leases of Chinese coast territory may be
granted. 1t is extremely improbable, how
ever, that this government Will consent to
take such action. The Chinese minister WI
Ting Fang has never received any advices
from his government regarding the Italian
demand, nor has he made any representa-
lions TO this government that subject
under instructions from Picking. The min
lister has naturally endeavored to secure in

Queensland Hurricane.

LONDON, March BIN the House OF
Commons to-day William Pritchard Nor
gan. Liberal member for the Merthyr Thyd-
vii division of Wales, who recently, in be-
half of British and American syndicates
obtained what appears to be immensely
valuable concession in the Chinese province
of Sze-Chuan, moved to adjourn in order to
call attention to the support given by the
British minister at Picking. Sir Claude NJ
Macdonald, to Italy's demand for the lease
of San-Mun bay. He declared that Great
Britain, the United States and Japan
needed expansion of trade, and il was a
great mistake to support Italy, whose de-
mand, it is claimed, was another step tow
ards the disintegration of China.
The parliamentary secretary of the For
eign Office, Right Hon. William St. John
Broderick, defended the government action.
He said Italy had. for many years, been the
friend and ally of Great Britain, and, so far
as Great Britain was concerned, if by di-
plomacy Italy persuade China TO make
concessions, her Majesty's government
would welcome Italy's appearance in the
far East as an ally of Great Britain. Con-
tinuing. Mr.. Broderick said the policy of her
Majesty's government was to safeguard
British interests and, so long as these were
HOl not 10 Sldnu III the way OF
friendly powers taking steps to safeguard
their interests. The motion to adjourn was
negatved without "a division.
During the discussion of the naval esti-
mates Henry Labouchere, Liberal member
for Northampton, moved a reduction in the
vote. He argued that the government was
playing the game of 'beggar my neighbor
against the whole world" and declared it
foolish swagger to boast ability to build
more ships than any other country" Great
Britain, he asserted. was not richer than
the United States, nor than France and
Russia combined.
John Dillon. Nationalist member for East
Mayo, in supporting the reduction, said:
British statesmen who attempt TO induce
the United States to abandon their tradi-
tons by embarking in q wild career Of ma
val competition with Europe will bitterly
regret it. For the day will come when Eng
land will be hard driven TO maintain naval
equality with the United States alone. The
first lord of the admiralty (AIr. Goschen) is
trying to compete with six powers"
Arthur J. Balfour, the government leader,
denied that either the first lord Of the adj
miralty or the government had any such in
sane idea. The first lord of the admiralty,
he declared. had deliberately based his pol
icy upon the accepted principle that Great
Britain's navy should be equal to the force
of any other two powers. The House re-
jected the motion for a reduction in The es-
Inmates by III votes against 10.

South New Jersey, to-day practically con-
Guided its labors with the announcement
that the glass-blowers OF that section are
thoroughly organized and will present their
demands to the manufacturers within a
few days for payment at the union scale OF
wages.
President ID. A Hayes, of the Bottle
blowers Association, to-night, in confirming
the above, said: I'VE do not anticipate a
strike. but the question of such contin-
gency depends entirely upon the recognition
by the manufacturers of their workmen's
organization and their acceptance of the
union scale of wages. In event of a strike

ELECT A SENATOR.
State VIII Have but One Representa-
tive I'm the Upper Branch OF Con-
sress for Next Two Years.

DOVER, Del. March 13.-After one Of the
most exciting scenes that has ever been wit
messed in the General Assembly of this
State the session of 1899 ended at 3:Os o'clock
this afternoon without electing United
States senator TO succeed Hon. George
Gray. 1t is the first time in the history of
the State that there Is unQuestioned
senatorial vacancy, and, owing to the es-
tablished precedent OF the upper house Of
Congress in refusing to seat gubernatorial
appointees after the Legislature of State
has had opportunity to elect, the seat of
eral Assembly of 1901 shall choose his sue
cessor. At the same time the term Of Sena-
tor Richard r. Kenney will also expire and
it will. therefore, devolve on the next Leg
islature to elect two senators.
The final ballot. the fourteenth Of the day
and the 18th during the session. was as fol-
lows: John Edward Addicks, UNION Rep.
81; Henry A Dupont. Rep. 8; John Biggs,
Dem, 6; ex-Congressman L. Irving Handy,
Dem, 5; ex-senator George Gray. Dem. 4;
Willard Salisbury, Dem, 8; ex-senator An
thony Higgins, Rep. 2.
The time decided on for adjournment sine
die was p. m, and when the fourteenth
ballot was completed it lacked eighteen min
utes of that hour by the House clock; the
clock was six minutes slow. The Democrats
then adopted filibustering tactics in earnest.
The filibustering was successful, and with
Mr.. Rose the floor making address
on the disorder in the room and on other
pretended themes, the presiding officer
brought down his gavel as the clock
pointed to the hour of 3. The chamber was
in an uproar in an instant and 1t was some
time before quiet was restored. Democratic
members and regular Republican members
who are opposed to Addicks cheered loudly,
many of the legislators jumping on their
desks and waving their hats.
When President Protein Salmon an
nounced the General Assembly adjourned

disorder that followed Messrs. Farlow,

made their way from the chamber with
crowds Of indignant persons at their heels.
Threats of various kinds were made against
the boilers who found refuge in the Senate
chamber where they remained for two
hours or more. The feeling gradually sub
sided. although the men were jeered as
they left the capitol.

Italian Minister Recalled.

ROME, March 13.-The Tribuna asserts
that Italy has not delivered an ultimatum
to China. On the contrary the Italian gov
eminent has disavowed the action of Signor
MARITIME regarding the San-Mun bay affair
and has recalled him, confiding Italys in
terests TO the British minister at Picking,
Sir Claude Macdonald, until the successor
of Signor MARITIME arrives there.
The news of Signor Martino's recall is a
complete surprise to the public. 1t is under
stood that his note asking China to>reaccept
the first Italian note was regarded by the
Italian government as too concililtory but
the general belief is that China will inter-
pref the recall as a sign of weakness. Count
Orfini, the Italian minister at Toxic, will be
appointed to succeed Slgnor MARITIME.
