WANT DRRr-wArER CANAL.
Work Of Making Lake Cities Atlantic
Ports shows Need of Canal
Through United states,

The work of Transforming the lake
cities into Atlantic ports has been
resolutely taken up by the North
western Steamship company of Chi
cago, which has constructed four sis
ter ships 255 feet long to ply regu-
larly between Chicago and European
ports. These vessels, named, respect
lively, the Northwestern, the North
eastern, the Northman and the
Northtown, sail from Chicago for
Hamburg, Liverpool and London,
loaded with machinery, canned and
boxed meats, lard and other products
of the great manufacturing section
fronting upon our inland seas.
The Northwestern sailed from Chi
cago some time ago, and is now well
on her way to Europe.
These ships, according to letter
received by the treasury bureau of
statistics from the manager of the
company, are of the lake type of CON
struction, but built with a special
view to combination of lake and
ocean traffic, AMI are supplied with
special facilities for rapid loading and
unloading.
They pass necessarily through the
Canadian canals, the Welland and ST.
Lawrence, to the head of decp-water
navigation at Montreal, and will in
their trip traverse 70 miles of canals
and pass through i6 locks, depending
on their own propelling power
throughout the entire voyage 1t is
estimated that the time occupied be-
tween Buffalo and Montreal, between
which the canal system extends, will
be about three days.
Communications to the bureau of
statistics from lake cites and ports
express the hope that this enterprise
may result in serious consideration
of the proposition to construct en-
tirely within the United States n,
deep-water canal connecting the lakes
with the Atlantic. The present depth
of the Wclland canal is II feet and
the depth of most of the harbors on
the lakes is 90 feet. and it is evident
that those desiring to see the cities
located upon the great lakes made in
fact Atlantic ports and connected by
direct steamship lines with the great
seaboard cities of the world will de-
sire at least an American canal with
depth equal to that of the great
lake harbors, viz, 30 feet

MAKE BIG PROFITS,
Poultry Raiscrs In Hawaiian Isla nd =
Obtain High Prices for gheir
Products,

A curious fact has developed in re-
lation to raising poultry in Hawaii.
Enormous quantities of ducks are
raised by the Chinese upon the edges
of the ocean. Twice a day, within
restricted areas, they are permitted
TO eat the young fish which swim in
the inclosed coves. Fish are reported
to be growing scarcer every year.
and by some this diminution is at
tributed to the wholesale destruction
of the young fry by the Chinese.
Whether this be true or not, the
duck experiments by the Chinese
demonstrated the feasibility of grow
ing poultry extensively on the is
lands. Chickens and eggs are ex-
cessively high and are raised on the
island in limited quantities, the bulk
Of the latter coming from China.
The experts of the agricultural de-
partment say the poultry industry
could be largely developed by proper
experiments.

ARIZONA'S PINE TRACT.
the Largest Unbroken Forest
Reserve In United states.

Arizona has the largest unbroken
pine forest reserve in the United
States, covering an area of over 5000
square miles. The total quantity of
pine timber suitable for saving pur-
poses within the boundaries of the
territory amounts to 10000, 600, 900
feet, which is enough TO supply the
needs of Il thickly populated state for
more than century.
The principal forest area is in Co.
conino county, and borders the Grand
canyon of the Colorado, although Gila.
Apache and iavapia counties have
considerable timber.
In New Mexico there are two enor-
nous forest reserves, one on the
Pecos river, in the northern part of
the territory, the other on the Gila
river, in the southwestern section,
comprising 3,70i,04O. This domain is
as large as the states of Rhode Island.

his expedition from Dundee about

that have ever been made for an arctic
venture. He said to the Chicago Rec
ord-Herald correspondent:
my ship America has been thor
oughly overhauled and perfectly
equipped. She fills me with pride. She
Is unquestionably the best vessel ever
fitted out for the north pole. Nansen's
Fran was built to drift with the ice.
She,had no power to contend against it.
The America has excellent engines,
and is specially designed to resist the
movement of the ice foes. ! am conf
dent that she will carry my 40 compan-
ions within reaching distance of the
pole.
II am taking along with me by far
the largest number of dogs ever trans
ported to the polar region. am also
shipping with me n small herd of tough
Siberian ponies-not mules, as has
been reported. but ponies bred and
reared amid rigid conditions of eli
mate. These animals will be an aid to
polar exploration, believe, and ex-
pect great results from the expert
ment.
MY expedition is equipped for
three-years' cruise, but expect to re-
turn not later than 27 months after
leave. believe we shall discover land
near the pole. II we reach our dcstina-
tion in summer. think we shall find

kOzLOWSkI IN COURT
AN "INDEPENDENT CATHOLIC"
QUARREL OF LURID HUE
Charges of Murder, Committed, At
tempted and Contemplated,
Are Made by Leader and
Followers.

CHICAGO, Nov. Alive men, charged
by Bishop Anthony Kozlowski, of the
Independent Catholic church, with con-
spiracy to cause his arrest unlawfully, in
order to injure his church and pnilan-
thropic work, were today held by Magis-
trate Martin to the grand jury. The de-
PENDANTS are: Dr. Stanislaus Slominski,
formerly physician in ST. Anthony hos
pital, of which Bishop Kozlowski is the
head; A. ]. Pongeriski, formerly priest
of the church; Teofil Sajewicz, John Ois-
zewski and Bronislaus Wodzenski. The
hearing was replete with sensat onal
charges, the plaintiff and the defendants
alike averring that their lives were in
momentary danger during the proceed
ings.
Four of the defendants brought charges
against Bishop Kozlowski, alleging that
he had caused the death of seven patients
by poisoning in his hospital. Bishop KOz-
lowski introduced medical evidence to
prove the patients died naturally, and
brought to the stand one Boslews Lewa-
had offered him money and other induce
ments to murder the bishop. He said the
defendants planned every detail of the
plot for him, but he refused to be tempt
ed.
Anthony Kozlowski left 1.-The Roman

numbers ten parishes. 1t is said to be
akin to what is known in Germany as
''the old Catholic church." which arose
following the council of Trent. kozIow
ski was elevated to the bishopric bv the
age which he MADE to Germany sonre

SOCIALISM IS WEAK
ARCHBISHOP G0RRIGAN SAYS THE
DOCTRINE TENDS TO CONFUSE
differences In Men SO Radical They
Can Never He Brought to a Cont
mon LeyeI-sociaIism Not
FraterRaI.


NEW YORK. Nov. 4.-Archbishop Cor
rigan,, in st. Patrick,s cathedral Sunday,
preached on Socialism. If Socialism pre-
vailed, he said. the world would be in
utter confusion, and the liberty and
rights of man-reversed. Its whole basis,
he declared, is denial of the right of
private ownership.
According to the Socialists, the arch
bishop said, The entire state is to be
a beehive. In this beehive there is to
be no room for drones All must work.
and all must fare alike. You must sup
pose that those who were formerly lazy
and shiftless and irresponsible, have sud
denly, by some magic, transferred them
selves into ideal, Industrious workers; all
this, I say, you must suppose il you are
going to embrace Socialism"
Socialists claim that the present evil
state of things can be set right by di-
viding property; but he said, "'some
men must work, some men must employ
and some must be employed" Again,
Socialism does not promote fraternity.
Christianity alone can do that. But So
cia1ism is not Christianity, All the lead
ers of Socialism from time inlmemorial
have been opposed to Christianity

It-Latter Hope for

DES MONIES, Iowa, Nov. 4-Hon. A.
B. Cummins, Republican candidate for
governor, closed his campaign at a large
meeting in the Auditorium in this city
this evening. He was assisted by ex-
Gov. Frank D. jackson and Hon. Sidney
A. Foster. John Briar in charge of the
literary bureau of the Republican state
committee, said today that the heavy
snow throughout Iowa would increase the
Republican vote by 10000 by driving the
farmers from the cornfie,dS and giving
them a chance to vote. The Republican
vote for Mckinley last year was go, ,SiS.
The state central committee estimates
that there will he q falling off of about Is
per cent from last years vote, or de-
crease of not far from 5000 If these
figures are realized, Mr. Cummins' vote
win be in the neighborhood of 26U, 600, or
q 0G0 mere than the total vote received
by Leslie NJ Shaw two years ago. ShawS S
plurality was 56,1G3. Add to this figure
the 21,C09 additional Republican votes, as
estimated, and the result Is a plurality Of
Il, ,000
Nearly all the members of the state
central committee have gone to their re-
spective homes to vote, and the head
quarters are deserted. Frank O. Stuart,
of the Democratic committee, is of the
opinion that the Republican plurality in
Iowa Will be substantially lowered TINS
year. He is of the opinion that the Demo-
cratic nominees on the county tickets
over the state are a better class of men
than ever before nominated and he be-
lieves that when election is over ana
the result is announced that the number
of Democratic county officers in Iowa will
be larger than at any time in recsnt
years.
The Prohibitionists are still .sanguine
that their party will cast not less than
25000 votes this year, as a protest to the
nomination of Mr.. Cumnins by the Re-
publieans for governor.

WASHINGTON, Nov 4-The Near

cured and an all-American water way at
the isthmus is practically assured, was
officially negotiated at the state depart
ment today by Secretary Hay and Lord
Eauncefote, the British ambassador. The
ceremony lasted less than half an hour
but at its conclusion only the formal
signature of the agreement was lacking
to complete this important piece of diplo-
matte business
While the conference was in progress
at the secretary's Office Admiral Walker
chairman of the isthmian canal commits
sion, was taking the preliminary steps
necessary to bring about a meeting of
that body to finally pass upon it's report
The commission is called to meet here
week from tomorrow. It's report will
recommend the construction of the canal
over the Nicara guam route and will esti-
mate the cost of the enterprise at $780,
000, 600.
Under the terms of the new convention
an agreement has been reached which, 1t
is believed, is free from the objectionabl
features which caused the failure OF the
first treaty in the senate. American con-
troll of the canal is provided for and no
European nation is asked to join in any
guarantee of the neutrality of the water
way, as was che case in the first agree

only about 7,G00 mounted men at home,
so that the military authorities are faced
