HIGH-PRICED BUTTER.
Before 1t Reached the Consumer on the Continent of Europe It Was
 Worth $3 Pound.

Not many people would be willing to pay three or four dollars a pound for butter if they lived where fairly good butter was plenty at much lower price. The editor of the Elgin Dairy Report tells of 8 gentleman visiting the Darlington creamery, which has or had reputation of sell ing its product at one dollar g pound. While there he saw a 2o-pound pack age put into large refrigerator case and packed around with ice and shipped to New York city. There it would be re-iced and sent by the steamer to an agent in London, who would again repack it in ice and send it to another party on the continent, who would see that it was sent to the consumer who had ordered it. The expense of freight and packing would scarcely be less than two or three dollars per pound, besides the cost of Such butter is only produced by good cows, given good food and care, and with also good care in regard to ab- solute cleanliness in stables, dairy room and utensils and purity of the air and water which comes in con tact with it. Not every one can make butter that will sell for 50 cents or one dollar ponud, but many could improve greatly on their product and on the price they obtain for it if they would take little more pains in these respects. And when they do so we may see dairy butter regular ly quoted as high or higher than that from the creamery.

LIBERAL FEEDING PAYS.
Valuable Extract from a MinnesOta Experiment Station Bulletin Pre-

That generous feeding of dairy cows pays is clearly illustrated in our rec ord for the five years ending December 30, 1897. During the years 1893, 1895, 1896 and 1897 cows were fed all they would take, while during the year 1894 they were fed light.

REJECTS THE TREATY.
China, Backed by Other Powers. is
Defiant Toward Russia.

Defiant Toward Russia.
New York, March PA special to
the Times from Washington says The
Russo-Chinese treaty has been rejected
by China. The powers opposed to the
Russian acquisition of Manchuria have
Won the first round and there is every
reason to believe that notes are now
passing between them with view to
preventing any further efforts on Rus
sla'S part to secure n convention with
China.
The sudden face-ab bout on China s
part is the result of work done by
other powers. The way in which il was
done is a secret that is being closely
guarded, but il is certain that pressure
from European capitals was the cause
OF China's rejection of the treaty.
This is, of course, only a temporary
check to Russia. She can now insist
That China accept the treaty making.
If necessary, some notifications in it
which viii give ground for reopening

according to reliable information. ne
gotiations are now going on between
the powers. The proof. which the re-
lection of the treaty furnishes that
Russia influence at the Chinese. court
is not omnipotent, has evidently given
encouragement to the opposition DOW
ers, who believe that the game can
be blocked as far as the treaty is con-
cerned- However, even if they succeed
in preventing Russia from CONCLUDING
any kind of agreement with China.

toward getting her out of Manchuria.

on earth. In fact, it is probable that
there are not a dozen corporations in
existence that have stock to the amount
of 1895, 429, 400, as has this company.
The increase is not accomplished in
a single bound. The Southern Pacific
stockholders have until 1906 to trade
their stock for the new issue or accept
cash in lieu thereof at market rates.
So it will be seen that there is plenty
of time in which to accomplish the
purpose for which the deal is intended.
Secretary Millar laughingly said yes
terday afternoon that it looked like a
case OF the tail wagging the dog for
the Union Pacific to acquire the South
ern Pacific, the latter being much the
longer road. But you wait and see
how that tail viii wag the dog" he
added, and from his tone it was ap-
parent that the secretary doesn't an
ticipate anything but good results from
the new combination.
Mr.. Millar gave out another interest
ing bit of Information yesterday. He
stated that OF all the stock in the Short
Line, the Union Pacific now held every
share except seventy An increase of
$4,000 600 was made in the capital
stock of the Union Pacific some time
ago for the purpose of making this pur-
chase, and how nearly IL has been
brought about is shown by Mr.. Mil
lars statement.
He also said that the purchase of the
Oregon Railroad & Navigation COM
pany was practically complete, all but
a few hundred shares of the stock of
that corporation having been turned
in to the Union Pacific people.
To Mr.. Millar the outlook for the road
he is interested in seems very bright.
He believes that the great company

FUNSTON PLANS A TRAP
FOR ELUSIVE ACUINALDO
Starts on Chase to Capture the Willy Leader Of
the Filipino Insurgents.
Daring Scheme by Which it is Proposed to Betray the
Fugitive Into His Enemies Hands.

Manila, March 23.-General Funston
is now engaged in a daring project
which promises to be the greatest and
most romantic achievement of his
eventful career. In January, from his
hiding place in the province of Isa-
bella, Aguinaldo wrote letters anathe-
matizing the sub-chiefs who had taken
the oath of allegiance TO the United
States. Later, AguinaldO ordered in
surgent forces in southern Luzon to
join him at rendezous in Isabella
province
The rebel officer entrusted with these
orders secretly negotiated with the
Americans on securing necessary in
Aguinaldos capture, and with General
MacArthur's authorization, General
Funston proceeded two weeks ago to
make the attempt.
General Funston. with Surgeon Major
Harris, Captain Newton of the Thirty
fourth infantry Lieutenant Adaire of
the Twenty-secOnd infantry, Ii utenant
Mitchell of the FOrtieth infantry, six
veteran scouts and a company of native
scouts all picked men, embarked on the
gunboat Vicksburg and We're landed on
a remote beach above Baler. 1t was
arranged that AguinaldO's emissary,
with the native scouts, should pass
themselves Off as inSurgent troops who.
having captured General Funston and
others, were taking them as prisoners
TO AguinaldO.
At the right time, when brought be-
fore AguinaldO. General Funston was
to give a signal, when the tables were
to be turned and Aguinaldo was to be
seized Six days march into the in
ter1Or were contemplated. Treachery
was considered possible, but every pre-
caution was taken, The troops in New
Vizcaya and New Ecija and the gun
boats Nicksburg and Albany were to
cooperate with General Funston'S
force. The Vicksburg is expected here
tomorrow.
