Dayton, O., Aug. minority stock

The petitioners allege that the late

formed conspiracy whereby the COM

ship and control of gas wells and gas
fields in Mercer county by allowing
leases to expire and by allowing the
wells to deteriorate with the object of
securing them under the name of the

monarchies look with favor upon the

have been some mysterious influence
which changed their once hostile at
titude into one of friendship; and re-
cent investigation has led to the be-
lief that this influence was the Masoh-

Developments on the Death Death
Of King AuumbeTtt.
BY Associated Press.

by ABsOclaLeu freSS.
New York, Aug. lit develops that
Galliotti's name was connected with
the story circulated months ago in
Patterson that King Humbert's death
was sought by anarchists. At that
time Careno Fossinni, foreman In a
dye works at Paterson, was shot and
killed by Giuseppe Sperenzi. The lat
ter was cornered and when the police
were closing in upon him he shot
himself.
There was letter found upon him
which told of the plot to kill King
Humbert. 1t called on Sperenzi to act
as one of the twenty-seven men to
leave this country to wreak vengeance
on the crowned heads of Europe. A
few weeks afterward King Humbert
was assassinated. .--.---.
The statement Is now made that the
letter found on Sperenzi was signed
by Galliotti. 1t has always been
claimed that Sperenzi killed the fore
man for his refusal to be one of these
to go to Europe.

FERTILE SOIL IN ALASKA
DIR. ALLEN SAYS THERE ARE LARGE
PROFITS IN FARMING.
One Man With Three Acres Realized
$4,000 Last Year-Bene1lts of Agri-
cultural Experiment Stations.

An inspection Of the experiment stations
of Alaska has just been made by DIR. f.
W. Allen, assistant superintendent Of that
branch Of the work Of the Department or
Agriculture in that territory, who has just
returned to this city after an absence OF
ten weeks. DR.. Allen stated today that
Alaska will be able to raise all the food
needed in that territory. the experiments
of the agricultural stations having dem
onstrated that wheat, oats, barley, rye
and all the hardy vegetables can be grown
there. He says that an abundant beer
supply can be secured. At the present time
it costs more to transport cattle from Sc
attic to Alaska than persons. This makes
beef extremely high and at the present
prices he thinks there might be large
profit in conducting stock farms near 81
ka and other large settlements Not only
has 1t been demonstrated that cereals and
all the hardy vegetables can be raised IN
Alaska, but the experience Of the few
farmers there who have a practical knowl-
edge Of their business SHOWS that very
handsome profits can be made.
One farmer whom DR.. Allen met near
Sitka cultivated a three-acre farm. and
last year he made from this small piece OF
lend 5000. Many Of those who have at
tempted farming in Alaska have been en-
'tirely ignorant Of practical farming, ana
they have met the same dfmcutieS that
they would meet IN 6lMllaT dLIelnplS dly-
where When he was in Sitka lettuce was
selling for SO cents head and It had been
bringing IS cents. Other farm products
sell at proportienately high prices. The
soil is so rich that there is a tendency for
all vegetables to have a rank growth and
to quickly go to seed. There is thick
mess covering the soil and to get the best
results this moss should be removed. Al
though the season is very short yet the
crops mature quickly. SO that good results
are obtained.
Dr. Allen thinks that many Of the men
who understand farming and who have
been unsuccessful in their hunt for gold
can secure a fine living by turning their
attention to agriculture. The experiment
stations have not only demonstrated what
can be done with the Alaska soil, but they
have been of service to the people IN dis
tributing various kinds of seed which has
helped those who have attempted TO chftf
yate the soil They have also made
large distribution Of flower seed. and when
DR. Allen left many of the cottages that
were formerly looking desolate had hand
some flower gardens near them.

TO IMPROVE APPEARANCE
RECENT ORDER TO TROOPS IN THE
PHILIPPINES.
Gen. Chaffee's Instructions Regarding
the inform of the Soldiers and
Its Effect on Discipline.

Gen. Chaffee, commanding the division of
the Philippines. has issued a general order
designed to improve the discipline and ap-
pearance OF Uncle Sans soldiers in the
archipelago. II is as follows:
''As an aid TO discipline it is necessary
that soldiers should be uniformly dressed.
The uniform for all troops in this division
IS the khaki blouse and trousers. tan shoes,
and the campaign hat and will be worn by
enlisted men in complete suits, the blouse
properly buttoned on all duty, and when off
duty, in all places out of quarters. Troop
and company commanders, also command
ing officers. will not vary from these orders
Unless troops be campaigning in brush or
marching in column on roads, when IL the
commanding officer deems IL best he may
relax discipline for the occasion and order
hlouses unbottoned. Under no circum-
stances will officers or men appear out of
barracks iu shirt sleeves. Whether an over
shirt be worn or not, the blouse must be
worn.
The individual wishes Of men will not be
considered relative to particular kinds of
Undertaking to be issued to them: such
lightweight clothing a is provided by the
quartermaster' department will be distrib-
uted when necessary and be issued as soon
as possible after the clothing is drawn and
not held in store for the reason that some
thing different is wanted. The chambry or
khaki overshirt will be issued by the quar-
termaster's department the condition OF
supply may require, and no effort need be
made by the depot officer to furnish exclu-
sively one or the other sort on estimates
while both are available.

LYNCH STATISTICS.

Record of Persons Slain by American
Naolss Since 1855.
From the Philsdelphia Ledger.
For sixteen years the Chicago Tribune
has been carefully preserving the complete
statistics of lynchings in this country, ana
for four years previously record OF the
number Although the public has become
accustomed to almost daily accounts OF
lynchings the full list as published by the
Tribune must cause surprise and horror al
its extent. From 1880 to the end OF fast
week 3,13O persons were executed without
due process of law by angry, bioodth1rsty
mobs, and since then several others have
been put to death in the same manner.
The crime of iynchinG has been commit
ted in nearly every state and territory.

Rhode Island, Utah and Vermont being the
only ones to escape disgrace Sixteen hun
dred and five, or more than one-half the
entire number recorded. were lynched IN
eight states, namely, Alabama, Arkansas,
Georgia, Louisiana, Kentucky, mississippi
Texas and Tennessee. The list OF states
stained by this crime is headed by Miss1s-
sippi, where 2a3 were put to death by mob
law; Texas is a close second, with 2i, and
Louisiana is third, with 221. There We're

The greatest number of lynchings In any
one year occurred in 1892, when 236 were
put to death in this manner; but this dis
graceful exhibit may be exceeded this year,
as 115 were lynched before the beginning of
the present month. In 1880 only was the
number put to death by Judge Lynch less
than 100, when ninety were recorded. AL
though the record of the Chicago Tribune
covers a period of twenty years, fun statis-
tics have only been kept for sixteen, and
during that period 2516 were slain by mob
law, and of this number los were in the
south and 436 in the north and west. Fifty
ane victims were women and 2 465 men
I67S were negroes. S01 white 21 Indians .

Those who seek to uphold lynching In the
south do so on the ground that Ii is chiefly

Chinese Are Laughing In Their
Sleeves Over the Incident
In Berlin.

A dispatch from Berlin yesterday says:
Emperor Williams reception of the Chinese
mission of expiation. headed by Prince
chun. which took place today at Potsdam.
was marked with all the severity consistent
with an audience nominally friendly. The
Chinese imperial envoy, on entering the
palace. was not accorded salute by the
Garde du Corps. The kaiser received them
seated. The buttons and epaulets OF his
majestys white uniform were enveioped in
crepe.
Prince Chun bowed thrice on entering
and leaving. Emperor William remained
seated during the reading Of the Chinese
address. Afterward, however, he relaxed
his stern demeanor and welcomed the en-
voy courteously. and subsequently, accom-
panied by his adjutant, he called upon
Prince Chun at the Orangery. Later In the
evening the emperor, Prince chun and a
dozen members of the expiatory mission
took tea on an island in the Hayel.
The imperial envoy seemed deeply ina
pressed with the solemnity Of the occasion,
and when summoned to the throne room
he showed visible embarrassment He
bowed repeatedly while approaching the
throne and his voice was agitated while
he was reading the imperial address.
The following is the text of the letter
presented by Prince Chun to Emperor
