SOPER TO RESIGN.
AS District Attorney to Accept POSI-
tion as Attorney for Creeks.


Provided that Washington de-
cides that the Greek nation needs
the services of an attorney, Piiny
l.. Soper will resign his position
as United States district attorney
and accept the job.
The Greek council has passed
an act authorizing the chief to ap-
point an attorney and has appro-
priated the sum of $1,000 per an
mum for that purpose. The posi-
tion has been offered TO our own
Pliny by Chief Porter, and it is
understood that if the government
sanctions the hire we will lose
him. "Uncle Cy" is expected to
show the president that the Kan
sas methods of "nephey" will
create drought of Crazy Snakes
which is worth the price,.
VIM. M. Mellette is mentioned
as Soper's probable successor as
district attorney.

VIEWS OF LONDON PRESS.
That thhe Instrument Favors Great
 Britain is Generally Believed.

London. Nov 1S.-The Westminster Gazette, this afternoon publishes an ar ticIe contending that even from Brltlsn view point it is desirable that the uhlted States should build exclusively and guarantee the neutrality of the lsth- mian canal, and that if Lord Lansdowne obtained full commercial privileges in the canal for Great Britain, the treaty Will moi be wholly onesided. The article con- cludes with advising the public to be prepared to accept a statement which will substantially give us all We want. but which outwardly will not pc triumph of diplomacy. By the blunder- ing of American statesmen we were put in an embarrassing position last year and we will show some magnanimlty II. for the sake of peace and good Will we approach the new settlement without a recollection of that event. Let us re- member that we have had some success in recent dealings with America. The Behring Sea award and Venezuelan treaty were both substantially in our favor, and if we get open water in the ranal that door will be the price for the abandonment of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty"
 The Pail Mall Gazette takes simi- lar view of the matter and says: we are surrendering a right we would never seriously think of expecting, but which might be infringed at any moment to the serious detriment of British dignity. On the other hand it is understood that compensation will be found in the ab- sence of heavy toll or traffic restric- lions. The canal is expected to be thrown open to the world and the open Ing of that door will be the price the British Government obtained for the abandonment of the Clayton Bulwer treaty"
 The St James Gazette says We have confidence that the American people will recognize in the abandonment of the CIayton- Bulwer treaty further sign of inc value we set on their good will and the earnestness of our desire to help tor- ward their aspirations after greatness ss, tIaartv relations between mother and daughter are more to us than academic treaty rights"

DEPUTIES IN ROW,
French Congress Has an Exciting
 Time.

Paris, Nov. lS.-An uproarous incident occurred today in the Chamber Of Deputies during the discussion of a Dill authorizing a loan of 265. 900 francs In per cent perpetual rentes to reimburse the treasury for its outlay as result of the Chinese expedition and to pay ln- demnity to French sufferers in emma
 M. Hubbard reported that the Budget Committee proposed to reduce the amount of the loan to 2l0.OOOOOO francs because objection was taken to the proposition that France should advance indemnities to the religious associations and financial enterprises. M. Hubbards report was extremely anu-clerical. M Ribot (Republcan) replied to M. Hub bard, protesting against the report, whlch he described as shameful, whereupon M. Berteaux socialist exclaimed that M. Ribot deserved to have his ears boxed. At this the centrists vehemently protest ed while the socialists cheered.
 Amid the din M. Deschanel, president of the chamber, called upon M. Berteaux to withdraw. This M. Berteaux refused to do, and renewed outcries and banging of desks resulted. M. Deschanel con tinued to ring his bell until the hubouD was Quieted when he asked the champer to censure M. Berteaux. This was voted. M. Ribot then resumed his reply to M. Hubbard's report, but the socialist resumed their noisy oppisition, to which the centrists responded equally loudly until the uproar became so deafening anc continuous that M. Deschanei, artei vainly changing his bell and calling TOT order. left the chair and the session was suspended.
 Subsequently, the session was resumed and M. Ribot concluded his speech.

LONDON MORNING PAPERS.
Opportunity for Attack on the Ca
 hinet is Afforded.

 London, Nov. 19.-Except as affording chance for the opposition journals to attack the government and the toreigh Secretary, Lord Lansdowne, the signing of the new isthmian canal convention does not excite strong interest in Great Britain. It is generally admitted that the British had nothing to gain by reten- tion of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, Wnlie they have much to gain by the construc- tion of the canal.
 The Morning Post congratulates both countries on the completion of the treaty and says 1t is glad that the convention or 1900 has been revised in accordance with American wishes. Teh Daily Mail fears that the signing may not terminate TOT ever a troublesome dispute and thinks Canada ought to receive some equivalent for the concessions which probably nave been made.
 The Daily Chronicle says:
 Lord Lansdowne has surrendered ev- erything without compensation. The gov ernment has climbed down from the po- sition they had deliberately chosen and although the disappearance of the Clay ton -Bulwer treaty will not cause much regret, many people will sigh for the business cabinet which Lord Rosebery recently suggested"
 In conclusion The Daily Chronicle char aoterizes the new treaty as a full &C., ceptance by Great Britain of the Monroe doctrine" and says it would be strange indeed if the Senate should object to such a one-sided bargain"
 The Times says: Tt Is premature to assume that all difficulties hace been over- come and that the Senate will ratify the treaty, but England has no reason to re- gard the construction of the canal with alarm or suspicion. We hope the treaty will be dealt with by our American kins- men in the same spirit of international good will with which it will certainly be received in England"

WHITES ARE ALARMED.
Indians Seem to Be Determined on Vengeance.

Marinette Wis, Nov. lS.-It is learned from Superintendent Burke of the Pesh- tigo Lumber Company that there Is great excitement among the Indians on the headwaters of the Eagle River on the northern part of Marinette County over the disappearance of one of the Indians who has been missing for week.
 Charles Keshena, one of the best known Indians In that part of the country ap- peared at one of the Peshtigo Company camp Saturday and said that his brother Indians were greatly excited over the disappearance of one of their tribe and claim that he was killed by white hunter, who shot him by mistake and then fled. The Indians firmly believe he was killed by white man. and are de- termned on vengeance. The name of the missing Indian is not known.
 The Indians are of the Menominee tribe and have a small settlement on the Eagle River. Keshena expressed considerable alarm and all the white hunters in that locality are being warned. It is proba- ble that there will be a general exodus as soon as the excitement among the h. dians becomes known. The Eagle River is in the wilds of Marinette County and one of the best deer hunting districts in Wis conSin.

There Is report today that two wounded men were taken to Morgantown and one to Sebree. and that they are all dead, having been shot while attacking the mines.
 This report lacks verification. though 1t Is believed that the men who made the attack suffered very greatly from the fight. In the battle of yesterday morn- ing. at least one thousand shots were fired, while the battle of a week ago half that number were fired. Early this morn ing a part of the Madisonville company and some of the Hopkinsviile company went to Providence. The men are under the command of Captain Thomas. The town is now under guard by the, soldiers. A terrible state of affairs exists, not only at Providence but all over Hopkins coun- ty, and at Empire. in Christian County. There is state of unrest and no one is surprised at what a day may bring forth.

AN UP-To-DATE SULTAN.
Morocco's Ruler is Desirous of Bring
 ing About Reform.

New York, Nov. 1S.-A correspondent Of The London Times and New York Times from the city of Morocco states that he has just had a long audience with the Sultan of Morocco.
 On entering the palace, says the core spordent, he was conducted through an open square. On one side of 1t were cages containing His Majesty's collection of wild beasts while roaming about were Barbary wild sheep. gazelles. wild boars and cranes.
 Sultan Mulai Abdul Fl Aziz, the dis patch goes on to say, Is tall and well built with a most intelligent ani most pie asant expression and with fascinating manners. No interpreter was present at the audi ence, the conversation being in Arabic throughout
 There is declares the correspondent, no doubt in regard to the soundness of tn ? Sultan's views, but he is much hampered by surrounding influences. and honest VI ziers are required. He makes no secret or his desire to reform every branch of the government. The correspondent expected to find a typical. expre ssi )nless Oriental, whereas he found a young man tuii or energy He says he left the palace more hopeful than ever that there Is possibil- ity of a bright future for Morocco.
