recognition of courtesies extended by the
daily papers, the Commercial club, the
trade press and the railroads, the prin-
cipal features were an unqualified de-
mand for the passage of the Grout bill,
and the Endorsement by the association
of those members in the senate and
house who had given it their vote.
The bill had its inception at the hands
of the National Dairy association and
their work and that of the men at Wash
ington who had fathered the measure
was recognized in the following resolu
ton offered by eX-Gov. Hoard, of Wis
conSin:
Resolved, That this association cannot
fully express it's obligations to the Ma
tional Dairy association, and particular
ly to the officers of that organization for
Its clean and gallant fight in favor of
the Grout bill. We recognize that the
fight has been the supreme battle of the
last two sessions of congress, the people
on one side and boundless, organized cap
ital on the other. The best that this or
ganlZation can do is to vote it's abSO-
lutte confidence in the ability, character
and unimpeachable integrity of the men
who have been our represent in
this fight, and who have spent their time
and money without hope of future re-
ward"
TIC Senators Proctor, Hansborough, Al
len and Foster, members of the senate
agricultural committee, thanks were ex-
tended for their work in the measure.
Senator Mason and Congressman Taw-
rey, Grant, Davidson and Babcock were
also complimented for their support of
the bill.

SUCCESSFUL TEST OF
A NEW DYNAMITE GUN

New York, Nov. 13.-Highly success
full tests of Il new dynamite gun Of de-
structive powers in excess of any
weapon hitherto designed have just
been privately conducted by special
board of officers of the bureau of ord
nance of the United States Army at
Fishers island. The government has
for several years been engaged in the
erection on Fishers island of fortifi-
cations ON colossal scale intended to
make the eastern entrance to the sound
impregnable to naval attack and Sc
cure the safety of all the cities along
the sound from New London to New
York.
With the full caliber projectile the
gun proved its ability to hurl 500
pounds of nitro-gelatine, said to be suf-
ficient to annihilate any battleship
afioat, a distance of about 5000 yards,
with a degree of accuracy not excelled
by the latest types of heavy rified ord
nance.
With n ten-inch shell, carrying 200
pounds Of explosive, the extreme range
was found to be 5.46O yards. the shell
exploding under water with the desired
delay action of two seconds. In the
test for accuracy five eight-inch shells
We're dropped at the respective ranges
of 5,O43. 5,O35. 5000, 5.O4O and 4.97O
yards, of which all would have taken
effect, assuming that the target had
been a battleship about three miles
away, or about double the distance of
$500 yards, now generally accepted
as the limit of practical fighting
range. In the test for rapidity of fire.
five full-caliber shells, weighing 1,1S5
pounds or more than half ton each,
We're discharged in eleven minutes and
fifty-five seconds, almost bringing the
weapon within the class Of rapid-fire
pieces.

BRITAIN AND IREL AND SUFFER
FROM TREMENDOUS STORMS

London, Nov. PA tremendous
storm, with torrents of rain, is sweep
ing the north of Britain and Ireland.
There have been serious floods in York
shire. Several of the suburbs of Dub
lin are flooded and elsewhere in Ire
land great damage has been done by
floods. Several fatal accidents have
occurred, and railway communication
Is delayed. In some parts of the coun-
try the rain has continued for thirty
six hours. In the Manchester district,
although there has been much damage,
the floods have been rather welcome
than otherwise as the mills had long
suffered from the unusual drouth.
The gale is still raging unabated
tonight along the coast Reports con-
tinuously arrive of shipping casualties,
especially on the Northumberland coast
where the storm is extremely violent.
Three vessels We're driven ashore to-
night at the entrance of the Tyne. Four
small vessels have been wrecked in the
vicinity of Sunderland and another has
been wrecked off HartlepOol. Alto
gether nine persons We're drowned in
these disasters. The lighthouse on the
Sunderland pier has been washed
away.
The gale in the Irish channel is the
severest known for many years. Five
vessels have been wrecked in Kings
ton harbT, which is strewn with
wreckage.
Violent winds, rain and snow storms
are reported from all the coasts of the
United Kingdom. A fierce gale is

BULGARIA HELD RESPONSIBLE
FOR WORK OF THE BRIGANDS

Sofia, Bulgaria, No. 13.-Consul Cen
aral Dickinson of Constantlnople has
supplemented his verbal representa-
tions to the Bulgarian government by
note to-day in which he recapitu-
lates the history of the abduction by
brigands of Miss Ellen NJ. Stone and
her companion, Nine. Tsilka, and the
steps taken to obtain her release, and
reminds the foreign minister of his
promise to give every assistance. He
also instances where the attitude of
subordinate officials has not con-
formed with this assurance. Finally,
Mr.. Dickinson repeats his demand for
the non-interferance of the govern
ment in the negotiations.
The governments reply, according to
the opinion expressed in official circles,
will set forth that while hesitating to
establish the precedent that the gov
ernment give protection to brigands in
treating for the ransom of captives, in
the present case. involving the safety
of two ladies, the government, as an
act of courtesy and humanity, will
comply with Mr.. Dickinson's request
for the non-interferance of the govern
ment in the negotiations.

LAND GRANT COLLEGE
MEN AT WASHINGTON

Washington, Nov. 13-The fifteenth
annual convention of representatives of
land grant, agricultural colleges and
United States experiment stations
throughout the United States began
here yesterday. Nearly 200 men prom
inent in the study of agricultural sci
ence were present. The executive COM
mittee reported that the Department
of Agriculture is considering n pro-
jected permanent exhibit in Washing
ton of the products of the colleges and
stations, and recommended the estab-
lishment of Il graduate institute of ag-
riculture.
President Harris of Maine, in his an
nual address, traced the history of the
state institutions from the time of the
land grant legislation in 1862. He
said that the total income of all the
state experimental stations and agri-
cultural colleges to date amounts to
$5O,OOO,OOO which, with the annuities
and endowments Mt four per cent,
swells the total income to S13O,OOO 600.
There are 25,0O0 students, 600 teachers
and 26OOO alumni.
A committee from the association
called upon the president to pay its re-
spects and to ask him to receive the
members of the association. The lat
ter request the president felt compelled
reluctantly to refuse, saying he was
making it rule TO receive representa-
tive committees from such associa-
tions, but not the associations them
selves.
The president pleased the committee
greatly by his words of praise of the
work of the state institutions founded
on the land grants.
while l am son Of Harvard" said
the president, II believe that the state
land grant institutions are doing n
greater work and are closer to the
hearts Of the people than many OF the
older and better equipped colleges"

There has just been brought to light
another tragic romance of Paris life.
An early promenader in the Park Of
St Cloud noticed bulky mass float
ing in the lake. 1t was found to be
composed of two human bodies-a
mans and woman's, tied fact togeth-
err by rope. The man was a work
ing stonemason named Blaudet, the
young woman domestic servant
named Brault. The young mans par
ents refused to saction their marriage,
thus interposing an insuperable OBJ
stacle in French law, and the lovers
had taken this sad alternative for as
serting their indissoluble union.
Gilpin observer., 1901-11-14

Mr.. Dickinson also quotes from Miss
Stones letters, saying that the chief
danger to which she is exposed is
flight from hiding places by night at
the approach of troops. He declares
that the people of the United States
will hold the Bulgarian government
morally and legally responsible for the
lives of the captives, should the ban
dts, exasperated by pursuit, slay
them.
A private agent who was employed
to visit Doubritza reports that the
members of the secret committee were
discussing the lowest terms of ransom
that would be acceptable.
One member of the committee said
he had been invited to join the band
and to take part in the kidnapping, but
that he refused and deprecated an at
tack upon inoffensive women. pointing
out that such action was calculated to
cost the committee more in sympathy
and support than the value Of twenty
ransOms.
This view seems to be dawning
gradually, even in Bulgarian circles,
where the kidnapping is condoned as
in the interest Of a sacred cause.

Several vessels have been dismasted

Thames. The latter foundered, but the
crew was saved.
Wild weather prevails over the lake
district. The first snow is falling on

A number of coast towns have suf-
fered damage to their sea walls and
houses and several rivers have broken
their banks and seriously damaged the
low parts of inland towns. Traffic in
some of the streets of Blackburn has
been stopped. There are several feet
of water in many of the low districts.
Belfast Is flooded, and elsewhere mills

The seas are so high off the Tyne that
all shipping movements have been
stopped. Even river traffic is partially
suspended. Hundreds of shipyard men
are idle ON account of the abnormal
rains.

from Dover to Calais last night, ran
