ADDRESS TO THE PEOPLE.
One is Issued by Middle-of-the-ROad
PopuIists in Ohio.

Columbus, o., July 500 Parker.
chairman of the national committee Of
the ddIe-of-the-road Populists, and
Otto Huber of New Richmond, the Ohio
member of the same committee, have
been in conference today with POpu-
lists in response to a call issued b.
Chairman on July Is. The small num-
Der of cOnferees were in executive ses-
sion, and late tonight Chairman Parker
gave out an address to the people,
which says:
I'VE congratulate true reformers of
Ohio on the fact that the opportunity
is now afforded, by reason of the re
turn to power in the Democratic party
of the element which in 1896 deserted
that party. repudiated and scorned its
principles and betrayed 1t into The
hands of the enemy, to unite all who
believe in progressive Democratic prln-
ciples into an effective, independent pO-
litical movement.
we denounce the contest going on
between the Republicans ana Demo-
Gratis of Ohio as a sham battle, a greedy
scramble for place and power, regard
less Of the welfare Of the people. We
appeal TO true citizens who believe in
the true principles Of government, the
elevation Of the man above the dollar,
TO unite with US in the organization of
these Independent leagues, to the end
that all true reform elements may be
speedily united into one grand protest
against legislative Injustice and ma
chine politics.
1t is understood that if the free sill
yer men tomorrow nominate such a
state ticket and adopt such platform
as is wanted by the Diddle-Of-the
readers, there viii be a POpulist rati-
fcatiOn state convention here during
the state fair on Sept. 10. Tomorrow
is the date for the convention Of the
free silver men. T. J. Lindsay and 1.
F. Clark of Delaware, O., are here rep
resenting the Prohibition and the Sam
Jones elements for the proposed fusion
or federation of reforms. Clark ana
Lindsay want all those opposed to both
Democrats and Republicans to unite on
Mayor Jones of Toledo, O., for gov
eTnOr.
The attendance for the free silver
convention tomorrow. as well as the
Populist convention today is so small
that the action Of these elements, sim
ely or in amalgamated form, is not
now regarded as a factor in the pres
ent Ohio campaign for state offices and
United States senator.

An analysis Of the crop situation in
the drouth gives the surprising con-
cIusIon that there viii be at least a
third of a crop Of corn raised. Some
localities report that some of the corn
was so backward before the coming Of
the rain that now il will have a good
chance to make something. In some Of
the most fortunate Of these places the
corn wi3l make nearly half a crop
The rains have placed new phase
on the livestock situation. A week ago
the farmers were almost panic-stricken
and were Fastening to sell their cattle
and hogs at any sacrifice to avoid the
necessity OF feeding them through the
coming season at so great an expense
Their action was caused by the fact
that there was scarcely any feed in the
entire state. Now immense quantities
of turnips, sorghum and kafir corn are
being planted, and as result the farm
ers viii have a great abundance of for
sc for the ensuing season. The herds
can now be fed without trouble and a
great calamity 10 Kansas has been

week throughout the central valleys.
but the temperature during the last
three days was more moderate. Good
rains have fallen over a large part Of
the drOuth area in the Mississippi and
upper Missouri valleys, but drOuth con-
ditiOns have become more serious in
the Ohio valley and Tennessee, where
the week has been rainless except in
a few local cities In the Atlantic coast
districts the weather conditions have
been generally favorable except over
portions of the CarOlinas and Virginia
where rain IS now needed. The condi-
tons were also favorable on the Pacific
coast.
Recent rains have improved late corn
in portions of Nebraska, Kansas, Okla

came. IN Iowa the crop has sustained
less injury. In the great corn states

COLOMBIAN AFFAIR
MurillO Incident Unlikely to
Cause Any Trouble.
IT MAY NOT BE NOTICED
GOVERNMENT HAD A RIGHT TO
SEARCH THE SHIP.

New York, July 3O.-Acco-ding to the
Washington correspondent of the Trib-
une, the news dispatches of Colonel Abel
Murillo's arrest by the Colombian au-
thorities at Cartagena, on board the
neutrality-suspicious. steamer, awakened
interest in the state department and
among the Spanish American legations,
on the superstition that the German
emperor would undertake to call the
Colombian authorities to account. Had
the Allegheny been under the Ameri-
can, French or any other than the
German flag. in any other than a South
American port, the incident would nave
been regarded as unworthy OF nOJIce,
for the principles Of International law
governing the status OF merchant
vessel in port are too well recognized
by maritime nations to attract much
attention.
The extraordinarily of a national
warship is usually respected, but a Tor
elgn merchant vessel Of whatever ma
tiOnality is subject to the laws Of any
port she happens to visit and cannot
afford a refuge for a citizen OF her own
nationality, not to mention a citizen
of the nation in whose jurisdiction the
vessel is temporarily subject The
United States has never failed to en-
force this principle in her own ports.
NTItdL bLlLG-4 HAS frequency ORAfce1-NA
the principle, declaring that English
law and not international law governed
British ships wherever they went bur
the United States has paid no attention
to the contention and the New York
police are supported in searching any
British ship in New York harbor.
At the state department the MurillO
affair is, therefore, looked upon as not
really alarming, and unless it can be
shown that Colombian authorities have
insulted the German flag it is thought
the matter win be passed in silence by

In the house of commons this after
noon Swift MacNeill, Irish nationalist,
made a motion to the effect that the
Daily Nails challenge was a breach Of
the privilege Of the house. The gov
