OF four years ago. The nearby fruit
Is Just commencing to arrive and Of
late the market has been over-stocked
and prices are low and unsatisfactory.
Holders Of really fancy apples are
not disposed to hurry them forward
while market is in such poor shape
as it has been for the past week or
two, but indications favor low prices
throughout the season, as the crop
reports say the condition of the grow
ing crop is good In nearly all sections.
The very finest red varieties have
not sold above SIPS and $1.5O per
double-head barrel during the past
week, and finest green fruit has sold
at $1.25, with very good stock going
u the neighborhood of 81 and any
thing unattractiye lower, large guam
titles cleaning up at fifty and seven
ty-fve cents per barrel.

Frankfort, Ky, Dec. 11.-With per-

vast thrOng of people from over the
state another chapter was written in
Kentucky's political history when
Governor J. c. w. Beckham was in
augurated for the remainder of the
term for which William Goebel and
William S. Taylor contested last year.
With the booming of cannon at II
O'Clock, the inaugural procession, the
most imposing ever seen on a similar
occasion in this state, took up it's
march which traversed the main thor
oughfares of the city. Two full regi-
ments of the state guard, the Duck
worth club of Cincinnati, and many
political clubs and civic societies were
in line. 1t was about noon when the
procession reached the capitol, where
the inaugural ceremonies proper took
place. A touching incident of the day
was the decoration of the grave of the
late Governor Goebel which took
place at the cemetery in the after
noon.

About 5000 Dutchmen assembled yes

congress. Horsemen from radius of
SiXty-hTe miles had been riding IN all
night. S. G. Cronwright-Schreiner
made speech in which he attacked
Sir Alfred Miner, the British high
commissioner and governor of Cape
colony, saying there would be no peace
while he was governor.
After a number of violent speeches.
the speakers, however, repudiating all
idea of rebellion and keeping within
stricter limits than had been expected,
three resolutions were carried by ac-
clamation, and a delegation was APP
pointed to submit them to Sir Alfred
Miner. The pith of the three is that
tie Afrikanders must be independent;
that the war must be stopped by
Great Britain: that Miner is all wrong,
and that the members of the congress
will labor Sin a constitutional way to
obtain their ends. The congress then
adjourned

Mccall Makes Things Interesting.
During the debate in the house yes
terday in the army reorganizatio ton bill
Mccall of Massachusetts, Republican,
aroused the only enthusiasm of the
day against the measure. Several
times during the last session, notably
on the Porto Rican tariff bill, he re-
fused to follow his party. Yesterday
he attacked the whole Philippine policy
Of the administration. Although tenn
perate in language hewas plain-spoken
in his warnings of the dangers which
he believed lay ahead OF the govern
ment if colonial policy" was per-
sisted in. He also criticised technical
ly several features of the bill, especial
~ that lodging in the president the
discretion to expand or reduce the
size Of the army at will. In conclud-
ing he lfkened the uncomfortable spir-
1t which opposed our sway in the Phil
ippines to that of Washington at Val
ley Forge. Love of independence, he
said, was the modest heritage Of the
human heart"
