SCHEME TO BEAT ROADS.
Ticket Brokers Secure Half Rates on
Clergymen's Certificates.

Chicago, June 2.--Detectives of the
Western Passenger Association think
they have nipped in the bud a scheme
to defraud the railroads on a wholesale
plan About a month ago ticket sold
by one of the western lines at half
rates, 10 the holders of enc Of the an
nual permits of the Western Passenger
Association. was picked up in brokers'
office. An investigation of the records
of the association showed that the Ger
titicate on which that ticket was is
sued had been used much more than
the average certificate. but no reports
had been made by ticket agents or con-
ductors indicating that it was improp-
erly used.
Since then numerous tests of the
scalping Offices have been made. espe-
uially to get tickets issued on clergy
mems certificates. AT the same time
the different lines of the association
made daily reports of the tickets issued
by them on such permits. The result
was that tickets issued at half rates on
clergymen's certificates issued to Mich
ael Curran. j. f., Walsh. Charles Cur
tin. b. Mcdonald and p. Clure were
shortly afterward found IN the offices OF
ticket brokers. Michael Curran was
found from the records TO hold clergy
certificate No. 1871, of the Western
Passenger Association. j. e. Walsh
held clergy certificate No. 2426. of the
Louisville & Nashvills railroad. and
Charles Curtin and Walsh also held an
nual clergy certificates of the Central
Passenger Association. The associa-
ton officials have demanded the return
Of the certificates, but have not yet re-
ceived them. The certificates are no
longer of any use to the holders, as all
ticket agents have been notified not to
issue tickets on them. The railroad
also have notified the church
authorities of the misuse of the clergy
certificates.

DUST BuRIEs COFFEE LANDS.
Volcanic Deposits Will Reduce Qua
temala's OUTPUT 25,OOO 900 Pounds,

New Orleans, La, June 90. Thiel
of Guatemala City, Guatemala, VINO ar
rived with other citizens of that coun-
try this morning, states that nearly
all the famous coffee lands in the valley
about Mount Santa Maria have been
covered with dust and ashes to depth
in many places. of fully two feet.
Clouds of dust and smoke are still fly
ing, as they have been periodically ever
since the first eruption shortly after
that of Mount Pelee in Saint Pierre.
What troubles the planters in Guate-
mala is that it will be several years
before this land can again be put into
coffee Thiel estimates that the coffee
crop of Guatemala is fully 100000
quintals short This means that there
will be 25,000,Q00 pounds less coffee
on the worlds market this year than
last, and therefore prices will be some
what affected.
Guatemala City is not itself incon-
venienced by the dust and smoke
clouds, in which there is considerable
sand, because a chain of hills and
mountains intervene between the coffee
districts in the Santa Maria valley.
Nearly all vegetation has been killed
and not little livestock, While occa-
sionally houses Of laboring people have
been destroyed. The locality of the
volcano has long since been deserted
by all inhabitants.

EDISON AND MARcoNI ALLIANCE
Marconi's Labor Will Be Divided From
This Time on-Ths Great inventor
Expresses His Confidence in the Fu-

New York, June 2.-"The commercial
utility of wireless telegraphy Is an as
sured fact. 1t will take time TO adjust
ii TO the everyday needs OF the world,
but the ultimate result is a foregone
conclusion In these words Thomas
a Edison today expressed his con-
fidence in the future of wireless teleg-
raphy.
Il have made an alliance with Mr..
Marconi," said the great inventor,
solely because / believe in wireless
telegraphy and am satisfied of its des-
tiny There is no shadow of Il doubt in
my mind that in a snort time wireless
telegraphy will stand at the top of
the list of practical utilities.
How long time will be required to
perfect the SYSTEM was asked.
oh | can not fix time limit in our
preparatory work. replied Mr.. Edison.
L know how skeptical the public
feels and | would have everybody I'M
derstand that every great invention
moves slowly in its preliminary stage.
why, take the electric motor car for
example. Now that the car is a rec
ognized success you will hardly credit
the fact that it took me ten years to
awaken interest in it. After the me-
chanical difficulties had been con-
quered railroad men took three years
to develop any interest in it. The same
is true of almost every new thing that
marks radical departure from old
ideas, old faiths
Asked to make prediction as to the
length of time that must elapse before
wireless telegraphy will be ready for
business in the full sense of the term,
Mr.. Edison smiled and answered:
Il am not in the predicting business.
1 will say that one year
of hard work will probably put wire
less telegraphy in complete CONNER
cial harness. The public must under
stand that up to this time Mr.. Marconi
has had all the work upon his own
shoulders. His suspension was vitality
essential at every point.
Nothing could be done anywhere
save under his personal direction. So
we have seen him racing back and forth
between this country and Europe, ex-
there, constructing here
and bossing the stupendous job at all
points of the compass simultaneously. |
The marvel is that he pushed the work |
so far ahead single handed and alone

CANAL OUTLOOK BAD.
HoIdup Hactics Of Colombia May De.
feat the Treaty

feat the Treaty.
Washington. June 81 William F.
Curtis, Record Herald. I'VE have dis
couraging news from Bogota by the
last mail. President Marroquin and
his cabinet are still confident that they
will be able to secure the ratification
of the canal treaty at the special ses-
sion of congress. which meets on June
20. and to strengthen his influence for
the purpose, he has recently made
some important changes in his cabinet.
The agents of the French canal COM
pany are also confident of ratification,
but the United States minister and
private writers give a rather gloomy
account of the situation. While they
are not entirely hopeless, they do not
encourage the authorities at Washing
ton to hope either for early or favor
able action. From all that can be gath
cred 1t is a "hold-up.' The govern
ment of the United States has promised
to pay s10,000,0O0 and many leading
men of the country think that 1t can be
made to pay $15,000,000 or $4,000. 900.
or whatever amount the Colombian
government may demand. They know
that our treasury is bullying with
money. IueS KNOW tldt our surplus
revenues are very large, and they are
absolutely destitute. Five years of al
most continuous revolution, has not
only made the government bankrupt,
and destroyed it's credit, but has i'm
poyerished the people, so that it is i'm
possible for them to pay taxes. Gold
is at a premium of about 1000 per
cent. Colombian currency is worth
about as much as was confederate
paper money few months before the
close of the civil war. Everybody in
the country is broke" The 100000
600 offered by the United States for
strip of territory across the isthmus
will be quickly absorbed and will not go
half far enough.
Some weeks ago we had rumor that
the French Company had promised to
pay to the Colombian government $12,-
600 900 out of the s40,000,000 1t is to re-
ceive from the United States. The re-
port was promptly denied but it has
been traced directly to Bogota, where
4 demand has been made upon the
agents of the company for a similar
amount. The Colombian. government
expects the canal company to share the
proceeds of the sale.

Very favorable temperatures prevail

work is unfinished and the early plant
ed is becoming weedy. In the eastern
portion of Kansas and Nebraska and in
Iowa corn fields have been badly wash
