prominent subject of discussion oS 'he
ministers, especially as to the pes'

In consequence Of the prominence

tbe report that a cabinet crisis had oc-
,,,rrad owing to breach between
Chamberlain and Hicks Beach on the
method of raising the war funds'
Chamberlain today issued a statement
saying the report was pure inVeheioi'
and absolutely untrue.
Notwithstanding the sensational di-
verse rumors evoked by the unexpected
summoning of the cabinet, public IN
terest. as displayed in Downing street
Was OF an exceedingly languid type. All
the ministers were present with the
exception Of the lord lieutenant OF Ire
iand. Earl Cadogan, from which 1T was
inferred that the question of the imme-
6iate adoption of more stringent pol
icy toward the United Irish League die
not occupy the foremost place at to-

Among the many peace rumors thif

ACTION in MERGER CASE.
First Move Of the Defense in the Min
nesota Suit.


st. Paul, April 12.-First move of the
various interests concerned in the rail-
way merger as against the suit insti-
tuted by the state of Minnesota in the
Ramsey district court has been taken
by President Hills attorneys. They
have served notice upon Attorney
General Douglass Of a motion to vacate
service In the summons and complaint
of the state of Minnesota against the
Northern Securities Company and
against President James j. Hill Of that
corporation and of the Great Northern
road.
The motion will be based on the claim
that the Northern Securities Company
is a New Jersey corporation, and as
such outside the jurisdiction of the
Minnesota courts. 1t will also be ar
gued that Hills residence in.this state
is merely personal, and as such he is
not amenable to the laws Of the case,
as he would be under normal condi-
tions
The argument next Saturday will not
affect the main question as stated in
the bill Of complaint filed by the at
torney general.

SOME FEEDING EXPERIMENTS
Bulletin Will Be Issued from Ames
Soon Showing Results.

Ames, April IA bulletin on the re-
suits of the sheep feeding experiment at
the college, conducted by the expert
ment station the past winter, will be
issued in few days. Two subjects of
interest to farmers and sheep breeders
will be treated. The first is Finishing
Western Wethers on Grass Alone" and
"On Grass and Grain for Early Sum-
ner Markets." Under this section is
given the results of tests made in five
lots of sheep, some of which, 1T is
claimed, will surprise sheep raisers.
The sheep were fed as follows: Lot l.,
fifteen sheep, blue grass pasture alone;
lot 2, fifteen sheep, corn and pasture;
lot 8, fifteen sheep, oats and pasture;
lot 4, fifteen sheep, barley and pasture;
lot 5, ten sheep, oats, corn and pasture.
The second experiment was along the
line of securing information as to new
feeds: emmer, commonly known as
speltz; soy beans and gluten feed.
Sheep were fed in seven lots: Lot l.,
ten sheep, emmer and clover hay; lot 2,
ton sheep, soy beans and clover hay;
lot 3, ten sheep, corn two parts. gluten
feed one part and clover hay; lot a.,
ten Sneep, corn aHu Grover nay, iol q
fifteen sheep, grass, rape and corn; lot
6. thirty sheep, grass and corn; lot q,
fifteen sheep, grass alone.
A swine feed experiment was begun
this week by the experiment station
under the direction of Professor Ken
nedy for the testing of the feeding
qualities of several new feeds. Hogs
are to be fed in five lots: Lot l, fed on
corn; lot 2, fed on corn and standard
stock food; lot 8, fed on corn and beef
meal; lot 4, fed on corn and dried
blood; lot 5, fed on corn and tankage.
Dry blood, beef meal and tankage are
new stock foods of which little is real
ly known. All are bi-products of ami
mails, manufactured by packing houses,
and are giving promise of being popu-
lar feeds.

THINKS PEACE AT HAND.
King Gives Up Yachting cruiss-Both
Armies Idle.

London, April 12.-The cabinet will
meet in special session today. This an
nouncement made yesterday afternoon
after Secretary Brodrick had told the
house of commons that the ministry
had no information regarding the
peace negotiations. started a fresh crop
of rumors. Mr.. Balfour at midnight
declared in the house of commons that
that peace had been concluded.
The news. too, that King Edward had
abandoned his yachting cruise, in
which he had intended to encircle the
islands, and that he would remain in
London, where he could be in daily
consultation with the ministers, has
added fuel to the flame OF optimism
which lights the way to early peace.
Mr.. Brodrick informed the house of
commons that no armistice would be
granted during the absence of the Boer
leaders from their commands.
Mr.. Brodrick was asked IL Lord
Kitchener had been authorized to offer
any terms of peace besides uncondi-
tional surrender. He replied:
Il am not in a position to make any
statement, nor am able to add any
thing to my statement of yesterday re-
garding the conference between the
Beers"
From official sources 1t Is ascertained
that the peace negotiations are not ex-
pected to come to conclusion so
quickly as the premature reports in
dicated. The belief that there will be
considerable parleying also exists in
circles intimate with the Boer leaders
on the continent. 1t appears certain
that the Beers will hold out till all
expedients of negotiations are ex-
hausted. in on endeavor to gain some
concession in the form of amnesty for
the Cape rebels. Some of those who are
in close touch with South Africa believe
that ten days may elapse before a
definite conclusion Is reached.
Inquiries in various sources yester-
day morning failed to elicit any con-
frmation Of the report printed in the
Financier and Bullionist that peace
terms had been agreed upon between
the British and the Boers. A reporter
called at Llangibly Castle and was as
sured by Frederic Rutherford Harris,
the South African mining magnate,
that the rumor was unfounded.
The Exchange Telegraph last even
ing said that Lord Roberts had sent
telegram to Dover in which he said:

WALLER CASE ENDED.
JUDGE Advocate kinssbury, Replying
to Counsel for Major Waller, Severe
ly Scores tho Prisoner.

Manila, April 12.-Judge Advocate
Henry P. Kingsbury replied today to
the summing up before the court mar
tial yesterday of Captainu Arthur L.
Mari, representing Major Littleton w
T. Waller, who is being tried for exc
cutir.g natives of Samar without trial.
Kinasbury made an eloquent address.
He contended that Waller was under
military, not martial law, and there was
nothing in the contact with the men
who were shot deserving such punish
ment. He blamed Waller himself for
the disasters which befell the marines
He accused him of abandoning ten
helpless comrades, whose bones are
now bleaching on the banks Of the La
nant5' to die of hunger. The judge ad-
vocate's denunciation of the methods
by which the prisoners who were to be
shot were chosen was dramatic. "They
were lined up" re said, "for the rattle
of death, at the sole will and pleasure
Of Private David, a marine, who was
judge, prosecutor and accuser of the
men in arms" He referred to Davis
testimony in terms of withering scorn,
and accused Waller of listening to the
dictates of ambition and not to the die
tates of duty. He asserted the natives,
according to the evidence, acted In
many instances in a highly commenda-
BILE manner and declared their faith
fulrless and not their treachery had
been disclosed before the court.
Captain Mari requested permission to
make short reply. He protested
strongly against the criticism of the
way, in which Waller had conducted the
campaign, which he said was outside
the case, and again insisted that mar
tial law ruled by the mere nature OF
the conditions. The court deliberated
less than an hour No decision was
announced.
