WANTS TWO THOUSAN
Horticultural Society Asks
Appropriation Of So, 600.
MesSs. Van Lindley and sherman Prosecute d
Claims Cf Fruit Growers TO Commit.
No Action Tsken.

IN effort was made yesterday to secure
the sanction of the Committee on Finance
and the Committee on Agriculture to a
measure for the appropriation of $4,000 a
year to the State Horticultural Society.
for the purpose of making that society a
more effectual protection and adviser OF
the fruit-growers of North Carolina.
Mr. J. Van Lindley, of Pomona. Presi-
dent of the society, and Mr.. Franklin
Sherman, of Raleigh, secretary, first made
their proposition to the Finance commit
tee, but that body considered that it was
a matter for the Committee on Agricul
ture, and accordingly took action upon
it,
Before the Committee on Agriculture,
Messrs. Van Lindley and Sherman made
quite an elaborate argument for their
measure. bringing forward in support of
it figures showing what other States do
for similar societies. 1t was claimed
that every year enormous quantities Of
valuable fruit are destroyed by pests,
which could be prevented by the applica
tion of scientific methods. But the society.
without some State all is utterly unable
TO help the growers in any way.
Representative Mclean, of Scotland
vigorously opposed the appropriation. He
expressed himself as being willing and
anxious to help any industry or any
people in the State, but he could not
conscientiously favor taxing the people Of
the State for the bnefit of the fruit-grow-
ers any more. than they are already bur-
dened for this purpose. The people al
ready give $4,000 a year to the Agricul-
tural Department, and that ought to be

dealing with the fruit question. 1t was
a similar case to that of the Cotton Grow

Another member who spoke against The
measure was Mr.. Curtis, of Buncombe he
said that, although he came from an ap-
growing county, he could not honestly
favor spending any more money
than was already being spent to help the
fruit growers of the State. When SO

election, in which reference was made to
the part taken by Senator Hawley and
Justice Harlan (neither then occupying

Louisiana controversy of that time.
In that letter Mr.. Chandler stated that
a commission of which those two gentle
men were members, had been sent to
Louisiana by President Hayes to destroy
the Packard State Government. This
having been accomplished Mr.. Chandler
said the President then undertook to
recognize the members of the commits
sion, giving Harlan the appointment 2,or
an. associate Justice and offering General
Hawleyi the place of director of the Paris
Exposition which the latter had declined,
Mr. Chandler said. because of the made
quacy of the salary. s
When this point in the article Was
reached. Mr.. Hawley interrupted, in some
what excited manner, and denounced the
statement as false: Mr.. Chandler replied
that the article had been prepared by him
% years. ago; never before had been con-
atradicted, and that be stills toodtby it.

Mr.. Harlan,s continuation 49,.

court dismissed the case of Mr.. Brown
and he was invited to institute new
suit. Realizing that the court was packed
against him he decided to appeal to his
own Government Mr.. Turner said the
claims of Mr.. Brown now were worth
$4,000. 900 or $4,000, 900. Mr.. Turner said
the idea of his resolution was to press
upon Great Britain the meritorious claim
of Mr.. Brown and TO ascertain what steps
had been taken by this Government in
regard to 1t since Great Britain had as
sumed the responsibilities of sovereignty
over that territory.
The resolution was adopted.

MISS STONE KIDNAPPED II
BULGARIA..
State Department Has Forwarded the
100000 Demanded and Will Later
Settle with Turkey Money Cabled.

WASHINGTON. October S.--Not since
the successful attempt to save the life
of John Hays Hammond, the American
engineer implicated in the Jameson raid
has the state department put forth such
energetic efforts to save a human life
as it is now doing in behalf of Miss
Stone. the American missionary who
was captured by Bulgarian bandits. A
sum of money has been forwarded by
the agency of the cable to Spencer Eddy
the United States secretary of legation
at. ConstantinOple, who has shown re-
markable energy aud ability in un-
earthing the ramifications of the plot
which resulted in the kidnapping Of
Miss Stone.
There is little doubt that the Tur-
lSish government has done all that it
could be expected to do to run down
the bandits, and what is now to be
done is to secure similar action on the
part of the Bulgarian government. and
to that end influences more potent
with the Slav races than that of the
United States governmnt are now at
work. Should the measures fail, then
the ransom money must be paid. and
that is why Mr.. Eddy has been placed
in possession of this powerful auXil-
larry.
The STATE department officials depre-
cate most earnestly newspaper dis
cussion of the measures it is taking in
Miss Stones behalf, claiming that
it is being greatly embarrassed in its
efforts by such publications. Conse-
quently the officials refuse to give any
information concerning the case be-
yond the merely negative statement
that they have not been informed of
the reported extension of one month
of the time allowed for the ransom of
Miss Stone.
PARIS, October S.-A letter received
by the Havres Agency from Salonica,
dated October 4, says:
THE American consul here has just
received orders to make the arrange
ments with the Vail (governor) for
the payment of the ransom on Miss
Stone. The United States will ad-
vance the money, afterwards settling
with Turkey.
