noses its ratification will be in mortal
danger of being considered by the whole
American people as acting under cor
rupt influence. To be quite frank about
it. the public will be apt TO think that
ne has been bribed.
There are sufficient reasons for thlnk-
ing that all three of the interests SAID
to be preparing to fight the treaty re-
gard it as a menace to their prosperity
and one of them to its existence.
Whether rightly or not capitalists lden-
titled with the Suez Canal assume that
opening of the great American water
way will divert traffic from their en-
terprise. We know how the trans con
tinental railway magnates have fought
the national project. through their
agents and attorneys in the Senate, for
the past twenty-five years. 1t is hardly
to be supposed that they are done fight
ing As for the Panama corporation,
construction of the Nicaragua Canal
would wipe it out of existence. Several
influential politicians of great national.
or formerly national. influence are i'm
derstood TO have been taken into the
deal to unload the de Lesseps failure
on the American Government. Alto
gcther there would seem to be the com
ponents of very pretty disturbance in
sight.
The country is forewarned, and will
not be an uninterested spectator of the
developments which shall come with
the submission of the treaty to the
Senate. Members of that august body
would do well to take notice and govern
themselves accordingly.

1t does not require a close analysis to
discover that the American Protective
League, the Home Market Club, and sim
liar organizations and men like Sen
ator Aldrich are the economic Bcurbons
of the present situation. They are max
ing no provisions for changed conditions;
they are blind to the dangers that threat
en-. They propose to make continued gains
by conquest not realizing that when
such a policy is formally declared and
generally understood il is a game that
the rest of the world can play at as well
as we.

that within the next six weeks five OF
the seven thousand cavalry troops now IN
the United Kingdom win be sent to reen-

The British Government is extremely
anxious to keep the Butler affair out of
politics. and especially out of Parliament
It is not that Lords Salisbury and Lans-
downe are much concerned to save the
fan of their once favorite but now dis
credited general 1t is because as sure as
Butler is made an issue by the opposition
in the House of Commons, an investiga-
tion will become inevitable and, it is be-
Iieved, will result in the wrecking Of other
military regulations, now in passable
shape merely because certain facts and
incidents connected with the South Afri-
can war have been obscured or sup
pressed. Butler has become popular
hero, and it is the populace who are likely
TO force the hand of the Ministry. 1t was
an omiuous sign the other day when,
going home from the reception to the
Duke and Duchess Of Cornwall and York,
Field Marshal Lord Roberts was hooted

past For many months the idea of sup
plying Paris with drinking water from
the Lake of Geneva has found consider

utilize the waters of the Loire to that
end. For the execution Of chat project
the water would be drawn from the beau

the Department Of the Arde -he. some
miles frcm the sources of the Loire. The
lake would be transformed into sort
of immense reservoir, containing about
90 900 600 cubic metres of water. and into
which would be brought the flow Of Ger

ANNUAL SUPPER.

The annual supper given by the mem
bers of the Congregational church at
Kings Daughters hall Wednesday evening
was complete success and greatly enjoy
ed by the church people and many of their
friends. The supper was good and the
social features prominent-th the kind one
likes to see perpetuated in community
where so many good people reside. After
supper the church roll call was had,
large majority answering to their names,
and reports made from the different
societies.
A very pleasing feature of the evening
was the beautiful solo-"Jesus Only"
by Miss Mary E. Butler, Of Hillsborough
Bridge, N. H., which was touchingly rem
dered. winning for her the hearty ap-
plause of all present. She with her mot. er

COMPTROLLER REFUSES TO AUDIT
ORDER FOR TREAsURE R,s
SURETY BOND
SAYS PAYMENT IS OPTIONAL
NIcCardy Is of Opinion That City
Charter Takes Precedence
Over Acts of the Leg
isIature.

Comptroller McCardy. the watch dos
of the city treasury Is of the opinion
that the acts Of the recent legislature
do not have precedence over the city
charter. AS a gentle reminder and a
hint that he who laughs last, laughs
best, he has refused to audit the coun-
ellis order instructing him to pay to city
Treasurer Bremen the sum of $780, that
being the amount of premium due on
the surety bond of 100000 which Mr..
Bremen furnishes the city as a guar
antee against loss.
Mr.. McCardy directed his findings to
the board Of aldermen last evening and
accompanied them with a memorandum
in which he held that the act Of the leg
islature directing such a refund was not
obligatory, and at the same time the
charter did not provide for such.
AS basis for his refusal to pay over
the money, Mr.. McCardy holds that the
treasurer was elected under the terms
provided by tho city charter, which ar
ranged for a set salary with no trim
1nings. Mr.. Bremen, he holds, was aware
Of these terms and accepted the office
with this understanding.
He acknowledges the existence of the
legislative enactment directing the pay
ment by counties and cities Of the pre-
miums on bonds given by their custo-
dams of the peoples money, but does not
think it mandatory, and he holds that it
has nc precedence over the city charter.
He thinks Mr.. Bremen was pleased to
accept the Office under the terms arrang-
eG by the charter and intimates that any
payment beyond that would be a Greet
violation of the law. The matter has
been referred to the committee on wa 8
and means for investigation.

Up 70 BOARD OF PARDONS
PRISON MANAGERS WILLING TO RE-
LEASE YQBgGER BROTHERS
ON PAROLE
HAVE BEEN PUNISHED ENOUGH
Twenty-Five Years of Continued
Good Conduct, the Prisoners
Think, Has Earn ed Them
Their Freedom.

The board of prison managers met at
Saltwater yesterday morning and unani-
mously passed a resolution asking the
board of rardons to approve the parole
Of the Younger brothers. The resolution
was passed after the reading of petit
ton presented TO the board by the prison
ers.
The petition stated in substance that
Thomas Coleman Younger is ffty-six
years Of age and Jamss Harden Younger
fifty-three, Their birthplace was jack
son county. Mo, and their parents were
H w. and E. S. Younger. Before they
came to this state they had resided IN
Texas for five years. In 1876 they were
sentenced by Judge Lord. Of Wright
county, Mimi, to life imprisonment at
hard labor at Saltwater. The petitioners
have now served twenty-five years con-
ltiniously, and during that time they have
,obeyed every rule and regulation of the
prison and have shown every desire to
reform. They think that the punishment
already inflicted is enough Ito satisfy the
demands of justice ana want to be al
lowed to again mingle with society.
Attorney General Douglas was seen
with regard to the action of the board
of prison managers, and he stated that
he did not know when the resolution
would be acted upon. The regular meet
ing of the board of pardens is the first
week in July and according to the legal
department of the state, a special meet
ing must be called by the governor.
Gov. Van SAINT said that as far as
special meeting ewas concerned he would
take no action until he was obliged to.
This, if taken literally, means that the
fate of the Younger brothers will be set
tied at the regular meeting in July.
The Younger brothers were sentenced
In 1875 for i1ie murder of a bank cashier
in Mortified. AtBthe time of the trial
there were three Of the Younger broth>
