.CHINA WILL ACCEDE

PUERTO RICAN SCHOOL LAW

London, Nov, IA dispatch TO
the Times from DIR. Morrison, in
Pekin, dated Novem ber IL says:
AS far as it is possible to judge,
China will be willing to accede to
all the terms of the conjoint notes
now ready to be presented to the
subjects for approval of home gov
ernment, except the demand for
the death penalty against the pris-

Regarding the American alleged
proposition TO execute the Chinese,
the Times editorial leader this
morning, says that none of the
powers desire to inhict any one of
them only under their just deserts,
If this be the case it will be diff
cult to see how the Americans
could justify themselves in other
cases in the refusal, on their part,
to join other powers in steps which
may be needed to procure this re-
suit This result is indispensable
to their citizens as well as those of
China, as protection of those who
are left of the commercial powers,

last Tuesday night. The New York

that he lost heart" The Tribune Gre

dairy farmers in Michigan, at the

1896 In New York City dairy salt costs
$40 Instead Of 81. the cost in 1895. and
$1.10. the cost in 1897. In other interior
states which do not themselves produce
salt the price has been about doubled
Prices began to increase the moment
the salt-makevs got their duty and per-

only been comparatively cheap under
the Wilson tariff. when 1t was on the
free list, but domestic production had
increased more than importations-

TEN MINUTE TALKS
Made by Col Bryan at West Duluth
and Carleton.

Carleton. Mimi. Oct. Mr.. Bryan
spoke at West Duluth for ten minutes
today, saying the Republican party had
reached the point at which they wanted
not only to revise the constitution, but
also the Ten Commandments 50 as to
make one of them read: Thou shalt
not steal on a small scale" Instead of
having as Lincoln wanted q, government
of the people, for the people and by the
people, the Republicans would have it
government of the syndicates, for the
syndicates and by the syndicates.
At Carleton he also spoke for ten
minutes and went over the general
ground Of the campaign. He said he
was not asking support of those who
expected to get something for nothing.
He did not want the support of those
who were looking for army contracts,
or who expected to get life pensions for
their sons. Not one man in ten he ad-
dressed, he said was really benefited
by the Republican policy. but that one
was expecting to make the campaign
contributions and then get his money
out of the other nine. People who want
ed colonies could get them by voting the
Republican ticket, but they would soon
find they had gotten all the evils that
go with a colonial system

PENSION FRAUDS.
They Are Given an Airing by U. s.
Judge Clark.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Oct Judge G.
D. Clark. presiding over the session of
the United States court for the eastern
district of Tennessee, which convened
here today, in his charge to the grand
jury made special reference to pension
violations, and said:
1T is perfectly astonishing how bold
applicants for pensions are becoming in
forging affidavits, and especially the
names of nonresident negroes who can
never be found. This class OF fraud is
becoming 50 prevalent that even persons
claiming to be Spanish American war
veterans are beginning to put in claims
that are not without fraud
Judge Clark laid special stress upon
this class of fraud, and cited an instance
of a. case at Knoxville, Tenn, during the
late session of the United States court,
where an applicant for pension produced
affldavits that he was wounded in the
charge at San Juan, but finally admitted
that he had never been nearer San Juan
than the state of Georgia.
