here in the appeal of the Rev. Louis
Richter, Of Minneapolis, for the ac-
ton of his presbytery and the synod

Kansas will need at least 25, 900 men
and 1000 teams for the wheat harvest
His estimates are made from reports
received from every township in the
state. There are no idle men In Kan
sas. so it will be necessary to import
harvest hands from the neighboring
states.
There is great scarcity of horses
and mules in the state. This is caused
by the fact that during the Boer war
thousands Of Kansas animals were
purchased by the British and taken to

TIME FOR RATIFICATION.
A Protocol Proposed Regarding the
Cuban Treaty.

The State Department is considering the
advisability of extending the period Of time
allowed for the ratification of the Cuban
reciprocity treaty. That treaty is now
pending before the United States Senate
ana it appears that the time allowed for
ratification expires one week from today.
While the Senate managers confident of
their ability to obtain the approval of the
treaty within the time limit, the Presi-
dent and Secretary Hay have about con-
cluded that they will scarcely be warranted
In risking the loss of this important con-
vention. which has cost them so much eff
fort to frame. and therefor they contem-
plate the drafting of a special article In
the shape of a protocol which will provide
for a safe extension OF the period allowed
for ratification.
The attention of officials who have to do
with the Cuban treaty was directed today
to the statement made in London to Lord
Lansdowne by the delegates of the cham
Der of commerce of the united kingdom to
the effect that the Cuban treaty contained
a secret clause stipulat'ng that no fur
ther measures of reciprocity shall be un-
dertaken by the United States toward the
British West Indies. 1t was promptly ex
planned that there was no secret clause in
the treaty. But what the delegates had ref
erence to was the amendment to the treaty
forced upon the Senate by the beet sugar
men. prohibiting for term Of five years
any diminuton of the sugar duties in the
tariff laws. the effect of which would. of
course be to prevent the confirmation of
any reciprocity treaty with the British
West Indian colonies. or. indeed, with any
country other than Cuba permitting re-
ductton of sugar duties That amendment
Is entirely obnoxious to the administration,
but whether its inclusion would cause the
loss of the treaty cannot be foretold at this
moment

UNION STATION BILL.
Conferees Not Yet Able to Reach an
Agreement.

The conferees on the union station bill
adjourned late yesterday afternoon without
reaching an agreement, and will not hold
another meeting until Monday. While this
failure to agree causes delay, yet at the
Capitol today it was not regarded as jeop-
ardizing the final passage of the union sta
ton bill.
The conferees had two points Of disagree
ment which could not be recofciled at the
meeting yesterday afternoon. One of these
related to the amount of money to be paid
to the Pennsylvania and the Baltimore and
Ohlo railroad companies, and the other to
the provision allowing any railroad enter
ing the District to use the union station in
the future. The bill as passed by the Sem
ate provided for the payment to the Penn
sylvania and to the Baltimore and Ohio OF
million and half each, and this amount
was curtailed in the House to- the extent
or half a million eaeh.syrhe conferees dis
cussed the question Of splitting the diff
ference, making the Curt ailment of cost
10 the government and the District in all &
half a million dollars, or quarter of
million dollars curtaifed on each road.
rms question assumed many aspects in
relation to what the Pennsylvania railroad
is giving up In the way of the land it has oc-
cupled ON the mall. and also as to the
equity In the payment to the Baltimore and
ohio Railroad Company. The proposition
to concede the claim of the Pennsylvania
railroad that the payment to 1t should not
be curtailed wastreceivedS with more favor
than was the same proposition from the
baltimore and Ohio, it being argued that
In the case of the Pennsylvania the fact
that it was giving up valuable property on
the mall which it had occupied placed it in
a better position than was the Baltimore
and Ohio.
Nothing was agreed upon by. the con-
ferees On this point, and that whole matter
viii be opened for discussion again at the
meeting on Monday. There seems some
change in the House provision reducing by
one million dollars the amount to be paid
to the railroads by the government and the
District in the way of making concession
to the railroads.
Representative Mudd eontended that the
provision for allowing other railroads to
use this depot was open to question as
to it's Interpretation, and he suggested that
he would want to offer some change of
language which, in his judgment, would
make the provision more binding.

Lodge, Mont.

RED LODGE. Mont. January 24.-The
authorities Of Carbon county have evidence
in their possession showing that the famous

Hole in the Wall crowd were on their way
TO hold up the town. The desperadoes
however. learned that the police were pre-
pared to receive them, and abandoned the
plan.
