THE BoER MANIFESTO.
Its Tone Not at All Liked In Grent
 Britain.

Its Tone Not at All Liked In Grent
 Britafn.s
 LONDON, Sept. 25.--The tone and contents of the manifesto of the Bo~ E generals, which was issued in the form of an appeal to the civilized world fcs' contributions to assist destitute Boers and help in the education of Boer chil- , dren, excite the utmost resentment of the whole British press, and the docu- ment tends to alienate the sympathy which has hitherto been felt for tho Boer people in many quarters
 It is regarded as a manifesto of hos tility to Great Britain and the work not of Generals Botha, De Wet and Delarey. but of Dr. Leyds, the Euro pean representative of the Boers, and Mr. Reitz, former state secretary of the Transvaal, and blunder which the Boers will live to regret.
 The statement contained in the manl- festo that 30,00O houses have been burned is declared to be a gross exag geration, and complaint is made that while the document presents the case against Great Britain in the worst pos sible light it dishonesty ignores the fact that the British government has promised to advance loans free of i'm terest for two years to enable the Boers to resettle on their farms. It is pointed out that even if the Boers' esti- mate of 30.000 farms destroyed is cor rect the $15, 100000 granted under the peace terms will give each family $500. The idea that the appeal is likely to re- suit in getting anything like $150,000.- 900 is ridiculed as preposterous.
 The Standard contends that friend ly appeal to the generosity of the Brit ish people would have been more pro- ductive than such an angry appeal to foreigners.

snnin Pays Her Debts.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25. The treasury department has begun the distribution of the sum of $2S,5Q0 re- ceived from the government of Spain as one of the annual payments of in- demnity due under the treaty of 1884. The continuation of these payments is regarded as marked evidence of the high sense of honor cherished by the Spanish people i'll meeting an obliga- tion About ISIS some American mer- chant ships were seized and destroyed by Spanish national vessels, and when the matter was brought before a tri- bunal an award was made in favor of the United States citizens for the amount of their losses. The principal was converted by curious Spanish method in perpetual rentes, and the Spanish government has met the inter est on these with great regularity ever since the treaty of 1884 By a rule of international law war absolutely ex- tinguishes treaties previously existing between the principals, but the Span ish government did not regard itself as thus relieved.

BOUGHT FIXTURES FOR $1oo.
But Found He Could Not Get Posses
 sion of Them.


 Adolph Name, whose recent finan- cial difficulties brought him into con siderable notice, is said to be among the missing. At the time of his re cent publicity Name had certain priv ileges ill Forest park. He sold out these and then he was immediately plunged into more difficulties. At tachments were levied on his ice cream and fruit store on East Main street and Exchange place. William Fl. Bor- chardt furnished the requisite bond to release the attachments and then he sold the business to MT Borchardt. The latter subsequently sold it to M. D. Leonard, of D. E. Carroll x Go, and he leased the fixtures to Mir Name, who thereupon took charge of the business. It is said he could not make it pay. At all events he saw an opportunity few days ago of making few dollars out of it and then to leave the city. He accordingly induced Frank Tedor, a fruit dealer, to buy the fixtures for $100. Tedor did not believe at first that Name owned the fixtures, but Manne removed this impression. Tell ing Tedor that he could take immedi- ate possession, he said he would go to see the Beacon Valley fair. When Te- dor undertook to possess himself of the fixtures he found Manne had no right to them. Then he tried to locate Manne, but failed. He retained At torney Bauby to find him and though a diligent search was made for him, no trace of him could be found.

FIRE IN PLUMBING SHOP.
oakum Blazed and Fire Department
 Was Called Out.

The fire department was called to extinguish a fire in the cellar of F. H, Garrity's plumbing shop on Bank street this forenoon. Heavy volumes of smoke poured out of the basement wiIl- dows and gave indications of hard work for the firemen. But prompt ac- ton controlled the fire and prevented what would otherwise have been seri- ous damage and loss. The fire orig mated not through careIessness put ac- cident. Piles of oakum in bales were on shelf near gas jet and boy went to light the latter. He did not see a piece of oakum that hung from one of the bales and this caught fire from the lighted taper. Immediately the whole bale was in flames MT Gar rity and the boy tackled the blaze, but the smoke drove them away and in a few seconds the other bales were smoking. Then the alarm was sent ill and in five minutes all danger was averted and in ten the fire was extin
 guished. The damage was less than $20O, fully covered by insurance.

POLICE COURT D0INGs.
Fined SEQ and Costs for Intoxlcation
 by Judge Burpee.

One of the worst looking black eyes that have been seen in the city court for some time was there this morning on Thomas Burns face. Burns was in Coffey's restaurant on Grand street when John Lane of River street en- tered and asked him for the price of q drink. Burns refused to give it, whereupon Lane struck him in the left eye This morning it was highly dis colored, considerably swollen and closed. Lane was charged with as sault and intoxication. He said Burns was partly to blame for the row; that they were old friends and drink was the source of the row. He pleaded hard for clemency and remind ed Judge Burpee that this was the first time he ever asked for it. A fine of $2O and costs was imposed for intoxi- cation and sentence was suspended for assault.
 Thomas Glynn was also charged with intoxication. He pleaded guilty, but as his record of late has been very good sentence was suspended.

they found a convenient tool to for.
ward his punishment under disguise
of the law.
Fully satisfying himself that the
railroad company desired to place
Billy Richards where he could dc
them no further harm in the dissem.
ination of his views of the rights of
labor, County Attorney Sidney M. 10.
gan made a complaint on informa.
ton and belief and Richards was
soon behind the bars.
Mr.. Logan used nearly all the uues-
tionable methods of the inquisition
to convict this prisoner, and his
conduct of the case was so marked
that prosecution was distorted into
persecution and he excelled himself
in his efforts to send Billy over the
road. He failed, however, not be-
cause he did not try hard enough, but
because there was absolutely no just
grounds for the charge, and the jruy
speedily acquitted the unfortunate
young man.
When the strike was settled, the
young man, being of a sensitive ma
ture and shrinking from again min
Cling with the people who might have
thought disgrace was attached to his
unjust detention in Jail, and further
because the notoriety which had been
heaped upon him by Logan's persist
emit persecution, forbade his again
working on the Great Northern rail-
road, moved with his family to an
other state.
Later on, Billy Richards was killed
in an accident on a southern railroad.
Not content with his persecution of
the boy but later on, he undertook
to prevent the insurance which Rich
ards had on his life being paid to
his sister
Mr.. Logan nor his friends will at
tempt to deny or explain this case,
which has caused a black mark to be
set against the attorneys name in
the brotherhood to which Richards
belonged and that is why we again
remark Mr.. Logan is seeking strange
company when he tries to travel with
railroad men or holds out the glad
hand to union labor in this field.

Nearly all will agree that next to
electing good men for mayor, treas
urer and police magistrate to admin
lister city affairs, it is most important
to select a good city council. In fact,
many think it of equal or greater i'm
portance to have an honest and eff
Gent council. The citizens munich
pal ticket proper is composed of the
same kind of men who have admins
tered city affairs for the last two
years, and their ways are known. The
aldermanic nominees are conserva-
tive and energetic men and will in
nowise fail their constituency.
