in BEHALF 0F LABOR
Bishop Potter Makes an Address
Before Church Convention C at
San Francisco.
Declares Labor and It's EN-.
ployer Must Be Brought
Closer Together.
Final Census Bulletin on Popu-
lation by Sex, Nativity and
Color Issued.

San Francisco, Oct 11.-Bishop Potter
of New York was the principal speaker
at the meeting of the church associa-
ton for the advancement of labor, held
at Alhambra theater last night. The
bishop said in part:
I'VE will never solve the question of
labor until the organizing minds, guid-
ing hands and employing managers are
identified with the unions with which
the employees are identified. There
should be a mutual understanding be-
tween employers and their help, and
both should be animated by common
tie of brotherhood and fealty. The la
borer and employer must be brought
closer together. You may legislate as
you please, impose taxation as you
please, or by any other process read5ust
the conflicting elements of modern socf-
ETY., but If you have not your heart in
the work you will fail utterly. The So
luton OF the labor problem consists IN
awakening in the heart OF the employer
a deep concern for the welfare Of those.
who are in his employ. Their aims and
hopes should not be antagonistic. They
should mingle together and observe the
laws of social contact. Their aims be-
ing identical, their methods should be
harmonious, IL those aims are to. be
Snhserved

Mt. Ayr. Ia, Oct 1.-THE Currie fam
lily is monopolizing the honors Of a To-
cal municipal campaign which termf-
mates next Monday. October IA, when a
special election will be held to elect
a successor to Councilman o. S. Mar
tin, resigned. John B. and w. 4. Cur

services he was nominated by the re-
publican caucus to fill the vacancy in
the city counil. His brother. w. 4.
Currie. has long been chairman of the
democratic county committee, and has
for years held in the hollow OF his
hand the minority party in Ringgold
county. He is also the inventor and
sponsor of the progressive" party,
party which has elected nu-
merous city officials, including the pres
ent mayor, in town which has a nor
NAL republican majority Of ESQ., This
party has nominated him for council-
man. The partisans of the two broth

OVER $4,000 UNPAID.
Tax Ferrets Find Large Sums Due
Grundy County.

Grundy County.
Special to Times Republican.
Iowa Falls, Oct. 1.-THE tax ferret
crusade has been decidedly interesting
subject in this county the past year and
is becoming equally as interesting in
other counties of the state. SO that the
figures just filed by the local ferrets now
at work in Grundy county is of interest
to many people in Iowa. The board of
supervisors of that county turned down
the overtures of the professional ferrets
and made contract with couple of
Grundy Center men who have been
making thorough canvass of the rec
ords of Grundy county, resulting in
some sensational figures being offered as
a result of the investigation. Commence
ing with the year 1896, the ferrets find
that values amounting to nearly s5,000.-
coo have been omitted by the assessors
or concealed by the people of that coun-
ty as shown by the records of Grundy
county and other counties of Iowa. The
year 1898 leads all the rest with over ST.
100000, while 1901 shows the lowest
amount of omitted assessable property.
Taking % per cent of this amount for
an assessable value and per cent
levy that is common in many towns the
amount of back taxes makes the as
founding aggregate of $4,000.

NOT TO FIGHT TREATY.


Washington, Oct. 11.-senator Mason
called on the president today and as
sured the latter that the report that he
intended to fight the new canal treaty
was entirely erroneous. Senator Mason
expressed hope that the new treaty
would be perfectly satisfactory.
The state department has heard again
by cable from Consul General Dickinson
touching upon the negotiations looking
to the release of Miss Stone. None OF the
details are made public, all that cain be
gathered as to the status of the case is
that conditions are by no means as re-
assuring as was expected yesterday.
The war department is informed that
the trial of f. w. Neely on charges OF
misappropriation of postal funds in
Cuba is now in progress.

IT LOOKS LIKE a DEAL.
Signs Of Northern Pacific Great
Northen- Burlington Combine.


Nothen- Burlington Combine.
New York. Oct. 1.-THE Journal of
Commerce today says:
The first definite indication of the
long awaited plans to finance the Nor
thern Pacitic-Great Northern Burling-
ton deal, and an important indication
also of community interest" finances
came to light yesterday afternoon in
the announcement that large corpora
tian has been or is soon to be organized
for the sole purpose of owning con-
trolling interest in the two companies
first named. AS these companies own
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, the
transaction means the control by the
new corporation of that road also.
1T may not be announced that all
interests absolutely agree that the new
corporation either has been organized
or is to be Immediately organized.
1.-THE situation in this respect may in
fact be condensed as follows:
"First-Hill interests state positively
that the company has not only been or
ganized, but that deposits Of Great
Northern and Northern Pacific stock
already have been freely made.
Second-Harriman interests assert
that the company has been formed to
take over the control of Great Northern
and Northern Pacific stock. but the
present intention is to confine the oper-
ations to controlling the Great North
ern only; and that the Northern Pa
cific matter will be taken up later.
"Third-Morgan interests claim that
there is nothing definite in the entire
report and that nothing actually has
been accomplished.
"Fourth-Rockefeller interests say the
plan thus far Is one drawn entirely by
j. j. Hill and that it has not yet re-
ceived Mr.. Morgan's approval.
ST. Paul, Mimi, Oct. 11.-When Pres
ident j. j. Hill. of the Great Northern
railway system, was today shown the
dispatch from New York that a plan
had been formulated and practically
agreed upon for the formation of a new
company which should take over the
management of the Great Northern,
the Northern Pacific and the Burling-
ton, he said briefly: THAT is simply a
sensational story. There is no truth in
it. NOT word of truth in It,"

LEADERS ARE ACCUSED
The London Spectator Prints a
Sensational Letter From
Cecil Rhodes.
Sir William Harcourt and Camp
bell Bannerman Put in a Bad
Light.
Rhodes Campaign Contributions
and Gladstone's Home Rule
Policy Mixed Up.

London, Oct. 1.-THE Spectator to-
morrow will print letters from Cecil
Rhodes and later Francis Schnadhorst,
who from 1856 to 1892 was chief organ
izer and adviser of the liberal party,
sustaining sensational allegations, made
some months ago. that Rhodes, in 1891,
gave E5,o0o to the liberal party on con-
dition that Gladstone would not bring
about the evacuation of Egypt by the
British troops. Both Sir William Ver-
non Harcourt and Sir Henry Campbell
l:cly declared this to be false. In a let
ter covering the correspondence Rhodes
sums up as follows: II met Schnadhorst
in London He asked whether l was
willing to subscribe to party funds. l
said was prepared to do so, provided
the policy was not to scuttle out of
Egypt, and that In the event of home
rule bill being brought forward, provis-
ion should be made for the retention of
Irish members at Westminster. / un-
derstood from Schnadhorst that he
would consult with Gladstone, which
quite satisfied me, as looked upon
Gladstone as the liberal party. Schnad-
horst accepted the contribution upon the
conditions contained in the letter ap-
pended" In this letter Rhodes demanded
that his contribution be kept secret and
that the check be returned IL the Irish
were not represented at Westminster.
But he added a postscript saying: II
H.
Egypt. If you think your party is hope
less, keep the money, but give 1t to
some charity. II would be an awful
thing to give my money to the breaking
up of the empire"
In 1892 Rhodes again wrote to Schnad-
horst. drawing attention to "a speech by
Gladstone foreshadowing scuttle out
OF Egypt and expressing the hope that
Schnadhorst would do his best to check
the mad step. But" he said, "if your
respected leader remains obdurate /
shall certainly call upon you to devote
my subscription to some public charity"
In Schnadhorst's reply he says Rhodes
money had already been spent, as he be-
lieved, and was given mainly to help the
home rule struggle Schnadhorst, how
ever, assured Rhodes that Gladstone's
utterances were only expressions Of
pious opinion. That Harcourt was also
annoyed at them. and that no scuttle
out in Egypt was likely, as he had seen
Rosebery. then slated for foreign minis
ter. who would not permit 1t. being a
strong man who will take his Owl,
course, very different from the plant
and supple Granville" "On the recep-
ton of this" Rhodes says, II bothered
no more, as upon Rosebery's appoint
ment ] knew Egypt was saved. leave
your readers to decide how far Banner
man was justified in characterizing the
original statements as lie from begin
ming to end. According to their state
ments. neither Bannerman nor Harcourt
are acquainted with the facts, but ]
naturally assumed that Schnadhorst
was speaking with authority
