SIMPLY COLONIES,

Republicans Declare In>ular Possession,
Not Part of the United states.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 1.-The Republi.
cans of the ways and means committee
Of the house have laid down definite
lines upon which the Republican lead.
ers Of the house have decided to legiS.
late for Porto Rico, so far as tariff Gu.
ties are concerned. The decision reached
is exceedingly important as it commits
the Republicans Of the ways and means
committee to the theory hat Porto Rice
and the Philippines are not territory OF
the United States within the meaning
OF that section Of the constitution which
provides that customs and revenue laws
shall be uniform throughout the United
States. In other words, it commits
them ~ the view that our new posses.
sions can be governed as colonies and
that discriminating duties can be levied
against them. The question arose in
connection with the bill introduced lO
days ago by Representative Payne of
New York. chairman of the ways and
means committee to extend the customs
and revenue laws of the United States
to Porto Rico and to make it a collec
ton district.
Payne's Bill Meant Free Trade.
This bill wa designed to remove all
tariff barriers between Porto Rico and
the United S~tates-free trade in other
words. Mr.. Payne stated at the time of
the introduction Of the bill that he had
offered il of his own notion after listen.
ing to the hearings before the commit.
tee on insular affairs. The Republican
members Of the ways and means com.
mittee, to which the bill was referred,
decided to favor a substitute which will
be offered when the bill m up for
discussion in the full committee. This
substitute provides that the tariff of
Porto Rico against goods from foreign
countries, except the United States.
shall be the same as that against goods
entering the United States from such
countries, but that goods imported into
Porto Rico from the United States shall
pay % per cent Of the tariff upon goods
of foreign countries.

Il HAS THEIR APPROVAL
DORSE THE ANGLo-GERMAN
AGREEMENT
AS TO THAT CLAUSE THREE
Great Britain and Germany Reserve
Their Decision as to Action
in Case of Territorial
Relation.

BERLIN, Oct. pa high official of the
German foreign office asserted this even
ing that AuStria-Hungary and Italy have
expressed their formal adherence to the
Anglo-German agreement, but that
France, Russia and the United States
have not defined their positions.
The press continues a lively discussion
of the agreement The Hamburg Cor
respondent, which is often the mouth
piece of the foreign Office, refers to the
suspicion expressed in some foreign
newspapers that certain clauses in the
agreement are kept secret and asserts
that no secret clauses exist.
The Vossische Zeitung referring to the
report that The United States, before CIV
ing final answer, wishes Germany and
Great Britain to explain what they mean
by clause 8, that is, whether, if another
power seizes territory, they intend TO re-
coup themselves by annexations, and also
whether they intend to prevent seizure by
force, says:
DECISION RESERVED.
Fhe answer to such a question will
probably be that Germany and Great Brit
tain have not yet reached a decision on
that, point, but intend to. decide only
after "a seizure shall have occurred, since
the decision must depend upon the inter-
ests Involved
Adyiees from China say that the Ger
man troops are suffering in health. News
of the death of three from disease was
eabled home today.
When the attention of the German fore
ign office was called to the success of the
rebels in Kwang Tung province, and the
question was asked whether the powers
had yet discussed the attitude toward the
rebellion, high official replied in the
negative, but implied that it would soon
become necessary TO discuss that point.

Somewhere en- route they were joined

served. Finally one or the men tele-
phoned for a cab and August Schulthors
responded. This cabman has been the
main source of the policies informa tfon,
and has given a detailed story of what
occurred.
1t was in the neighborhood of 10 o'clock

conscious girl into Schulthors' rig 1t is
alleged that after the hackman had
been called one of the men asked for
another round Of drinks, and into that
served to the girl poured the contents
of a vial containing Species of knock
out drops. The men erected the driver
to take them to roadhouse, but they
found the place closed, and repeated rap
pings produced no results The party
then started back toward the city.
In a lonely spot the hack was stopped
and the girl lifted out of It and laid
upon a blanket by the roadside. In what
followed the hackman and one of the
four it is said. had no part. The story
is too revolving to describe The hack
man claims that he dfd not leave his
seat. He was unable to say whether
the girl was alive or dead when she was
lifted back into the cab.

ALBERT LEA, Mimi, Oct 23.-Gov.
Lind began his canvass in Southern Min
nesota here tonight under the most favor
able conditions. The opera house in
which he spoke was entirely filed and
standing room was at a premium L l..
Brown, of Winona, candidate for con-
gress in the First district, also occupied
the platform with Gov. Lind and shared
in the unusual appreciation of the audi
ence. The occasion was in every way
a satisfactory one and indicated a very
live interest in the issue of the campaign
among the people here and portended
hopeful outlook for Democracy in this
part of Minnesota. IN many respects the
gathering in Albert Lea resembled tIlat
at saltwater, addressed by Gov. Lind and
others the night previous.
A REPRESENTATIVE AUDIENCE.
1t was composed largely of old time
Republicans, embraced the representative
business class of the city and numbered
among its components several hundred
farmers. The interest shown was as in
tense as could be desired, the audience
not Indifferent apparently to one word
uttered by either speaker. Strongly Re
publican, Albert Lea could not be sup
posed to make up an audience so large
without including proportionatcly many
Republicans in the number. 1t was all
the more remarkable therefore in view Of
the political complexion of the audience
about one-third Republican, to rote the
undivided attention accorded. The peo-
pie demonstrated clearly that they had
not gone to cheer, but to listen and
weigh carefully the speeches of both Gov.
Lind and Mr.. Brown. Gov Lind was pre-
ceded on the platform by Mr. Brown.
Both were introduced by ex-senator H
c. Nelson. Mr.. Brown, who entered the
race aaginst his own will, but who has
made a phenominal reputation as a fore
ible campaign speaker. delivered char
acteristic speech, dealing vigorously and
effectively with the questions at issue in
the First district.

SENTIMENT At PARIS.
What the Frenchmen Think of the
AngIO-German Entente.


PARIS, Oct .23-There. is considerable
mystery regarding the health of the
French minister at Pekin, M. Pichon.
The French government has received,
through the Chinese minister here, a
cable message from Ii Hung Chang
saying M. Pichon is a sick man and sug-
gesting that the French government ap-
point another plenipoteRtiary. The
French minister of foreign affairs, M.
Delcasse, having received the same day
a dispatch from NJ. Pichon, which did
not refer to his health, considers that
Ii Hung Chang's suggestion is open to
suspicion and has cabled to NJ Pichon on
the subject The latters reply has not
yet been received.
The Temps which is a semi-official or
gan, under London date, says:
''The belief in diplomatic circles is that
the ,Anglo-German agreement is purely
mutual agreement against either coun-
try seizing the Yang Use Kfang valley.
Germany, even if not in an economic
crisis, is at least in serious embrass-
n1ents, owing to considerable overproduc-
tlon brought about by the enormous in
dustrial machinery, which she has Great

MYSTERY IS EXPLAINED
HOW CHICAGO MARKET QUOTA
TIQNS WE'RE STOLEN

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct. 2S = The
mystery surrounding the manner In
which the wheat brokers and commits
sion men were all to secure quotations
of the Chicago Board of Trade from
Aug. 1 to Oct, 10, was dispelled today
when the testimony of Chicago electri-
clans and telegraph operators was filed
In the United States court. The secret
was revealed by Oscar NJ Stone in an
examination conducted before Commits
sioner, Harper in Chicago.
In brief, it is to the effect that the
quotations were secured by a system Of
messengers who went to various black
boards and tickers and got the quota
tons. Then they hurried to con-
Yen1ent telephone or a place where sig
nails could be read. Then an operator
In a room opposite a I4asalle street brok-
er's office, with the aid eff a field glass,
read off the quotations and they were
posted to an operator presiding at a
telegraph instrument In this way the
Chicago and other quotations were fur
nished to variops customers in; Chicago
and outside cities. MIR. Stone had two
Offices, one on the third floor and one on
the fifth floor of the building where he
was located. The wires ran from the
building to Moody & Co.,s$across the
street, in a pipe underground, and then
for the rest of the way to other offices
over the roofs of buildings. They were
old abandoned wires that were not used
by the telephone company.

WINONA, Mimi, Oct. 23-(SpeciaL)-
Regardless of the fact that the Repub-
licans in the First Congressional dis
trict are appearing to be perfectly un-
concerned in regard to the coming cleo
tion, there is nevertheless much anxiety
felt among the Republican leaders. They
are by no means certain of the outcome.
Congressman ]. A. Tawney was never
so frightened in his life as he is at this
moment. Brown is giving him run for
his life. Although the Republicans use
their party organs to cover it, there is
truely an undercurrent throughout the
First district toward Brown, the Demo-
cratic nominee for congress. Brown has
won the hearts and votes of the people
by his plain honest talk. He has tried
to deceive no one and has used G-gu-
nent only in his speeches. Twaney hurt
his political chances considerably by his
action in regard to the West hotel meet
ing of the lumber combine of the North
west. The fact, that he at first denied
the charges made against him and later
when positive proofs were given him
partially admitted being guilty to the
charges, has hurt him more than can be
estimated until election day comes
Thinking Republicans, any of them are
opposed to this lodging policy and they
have not been backward in saying So
were the letters recently published by
Earle S. Youmans and Charles Norton,
both wealthy lumbermen Of this city
They said that Tawney was a leader
at the meeting of the lumber combine.
TRYING TO HIDE FACTS.
City correspondents from Winona have
been trying to cover up Browns success
by giving comparative figures on Tawn-
ey'S majority of two years ago. BY COM
parative figures they try to show exactly
how Tawney will again be victorious, and
they state by larger majorities then he
received two years ago. This is nonsense
pure and simple. Tawney will lose votes
all over the district. He will certainly
loose Winona county. A fair estimate
places Browns majority in Winona coun-
ty at 1,000 while two years ago TaWney
carried the county by about 200. The
Republican chairman here, D. E. Tawney,
admitted to a Globe correspondent
yesterday that he did not expect Tawney
would carry Winona county, but express
cd the opinion that Browns majority
would not reach LOCO. 1t is the same in
nearly every county in the district,
Tawney will lose materially in several of
them.
Wabasha county will go to Brown by
about 800 votes and Steele will also go to
Brown, by a small majority. These are
estimates made by leading politicians of
the district. Freeborn and Fillmore are
also counted among the Democratic
counties, while Olmstead, Mower and
Dodge are conceded to the Republicans
These estimates are of course political
gucsses, but from present indications
and the immense amount of enthusiasm
