DIETRICH OFFERS A BILL
FIvE-YEAR CONTRACT WITH CUBA
While Cuban Reciprocity wranglers
Spar for Opening Nebraska
4-, ...s7.- Man Adds His Mite.

Washington, April 22.-The contestants
in the Cuban reciprocity struggle are
sparring for an opening these days. On
one hand the opposition to reciprocity is
trying to keep the bill in committee or
have it reported in the form of an en-
tirely new proposition, while the sup
porters of the administration policy are
urging action along the lines originally
proposed by the house leaders.
Senator Dietrich has introduced a bill
to authorize the president to enter into
a reciprocal agreement with the per-
manent government of Cuba respecting
trade between the United States and
Cuba. 1t provides that when such per-
manent government is established the
president is authorized to enter into such
agreement with Cuba whereby the United
States binds itself for the period of five
years to pay to the government of Cuba.
At the end Of each quarter of the fiscal
year ending June 80 1903. sum of money
equal to 40 per cent of the amount of i'm
port duties collected during said quarter
on articles, the growth and product OF
Cuba, coming directly to the United
| States, in American or Cuban bottoms.
This rate is gradually lessened until the
last quarter OF the fiscal year ending June
| 30, 1907, when only Is per cent is paid.
! AS a consideration for which the United
States is to pay the sums specified, the
bill provides that Cuba, during the exist
ence of the reciprocal agreement, is to ad-
nit all articles from the United States
subject to the payment at the end of each
quarter of the fiscal year ending June 80.

REPLY TO SENATOR DAILY
Member of State Game Commi SIS on
Writes POintedIy.

Special to The Journal.
Fergus Falls, Mimi, April pa vigor-
Gus article in Senator Daly's paper, the
Perham Enterprise, denouncing the game
and fish commission for collecting pike
spawn in the streams in the vicinity Of
that village, winding up with the state
ment that the proposed stripping may
be legal but it is a species Of legal piracy
that every sport-loving citizen in the
county resents, has called forth an equal
ly vigorous reply from a member of the
state game and fish commission, who
writes:
1T is unfortunate that the Perhamites
know so little about the work of the game
and fish commission as to fear the deple-
tion of the supply of fish in the lakes in
the vicinity of that village. Under natur-
al conditions, only about per cent Of
the eggs of the pike are fertilized, and
probably less than half of these are
hatched. When the eggs are removed by
the employees of the commission and fer
tilted artifcially, the percentage in
creases to over 95 per cent. The eggs
are not all taken to the hatchery, but,
after being fertilized, at least 10 per
cent of them are returned to the streams
from which the fish have been stripped.
The fish themselves are not injured and
are at once put back into the water The
supply of fish in the waters visited by
the states spawn caterers is invariably
increased for another reason-the fellows
who make business of catching fish dur
ing the spawning season are out of a

TRAMPs PUT TO FLIGHT
one stopped Her Horse While the
other Attempted to Get Into
Her Carriage.

Yankton, S. D.. April 22.-Mrs. W. F. E.
Clark, who lives in the country near Gay
vile, was assaulted by two tramps last
evening as she was driving home alone
from town. When about four miles from
town she met two tramps, one of whom
seized and stopped her horse and the other
attempted to get into the buggy.
With rare presence of mind Mrs. Clark
picked up monkey wrench that happened
to be in the buggy and struck her assail-
ant repeatedly in the face. AS he stag
gered back clear of the buggy she struck
her horse, which broke away from the
tramp holding him, and she made her es-
cape.
The wrench she used is covered with
blood, so the man she struck has marks
to show for his encounter. The country
about Gayville is much excited and if the
men are captured summary justice may be
meted out to them.

services in the battle of Nashville, Tenn,
and to major on the same date for gallant
and meritorious services in the capture of
Fort Blakely, Ala. Brevets of major Of
volunteers and lieutenant colonel of vol
unteers were bestowed upon him on
March 49, 1865. for distinguished and
meritorious services throughout the war.
General Kobbe served nearly all the
time in the regulars in California and
Washington, at Forts Mason and Candy,
respectively. After the ratification of the
treaty of peace with Spain, he was ap-
pointed colonel of the Thirty-ffth volun-
teer infantry, in which capacity he served
in the Philippines from July 5, 1899, to
Dec. 5, 1899, when he was promoted to
brigader general Of volunteers. Upon the
passage of the army reorganization bill
he was appointed brigadier general of
volunteers, while still in the Philippines.
Upon attaining his present rank he was
appointed commander Of the department
of Mindanao and later of the department
of Jolo. He was relieved from duty in
the Philippines last fall and arrived in
the United States in October. From No
vember II, 1901, to Feb. 4, 1902, he served
on the board appointed to select army
camp sites.

Special to The Journal.
Chicago, April 22.-The first $100, 100000
bank in Chicago will be in existence soon
as a result of negotiations to consolidate
the First National and Metropolitan Ma
tional banks. The deal is we'll advanced.
The combined deposits OF the banks in

ton over the line. One result Of the con-
solidaticn will be that President Elbridge
G.. Keith of the Metropolitan National
will become the president Of the Chicago
Title & Trust company. The identity of
the First National will be preserved, as
it will absorb the Metropolitan without
any other change than is required to ac-
quire the business. President James B.
