swedes are Gra,sful
Stockholm, sDec. st, 1902 '',
Mr.. CARL w. A. KRooK,
New Ulm, MINI.

New Ulm, MINI.
Dear Sir:
Your letter oft9e 18th inst. came duly
to hand and contents fully noted. The
late consul general, Joseph Muir, has
directed me to attend to the matter. I
have consequently left the sum with one
of the most prominent papers in Stock
holm, where know they will distribute
the same in the most particular manner
and report publicly. / beg herewith to
thank you and your friends for your
great kindness towards the destitute
Swedes, and you may be sure the dona-
ton will be highly appreciated.
Your Respectfully,
CARL P. GERELL,
U. S. Deputy Consul General.
The above letter was received by Mr..
Krook last week in answer to the dona-
ton that he secured from the people of
this city and the near by places to which
he went for funds and which he so easily
secured from the generous citizens of the
county. The letter he received has also
included with it clipping from the
paper mentioned which gives an account
of the RECEIPT of the money from the
consul general.
The climate of Sweden is as rule free
from great irregularities, but the summer
Of 1902, was one of those rare exceptions.
Last summer was very cold and wet all
over America and Europe, and especial
ly so in Sweden. The result is very
poor crop all over the kingdom and total
failure OF crops IN the northers half.
Here neither hay nor grain was secured.
Northern Sweden is sparsely settled
country of quite large extent. Sweden is
thousand miles long, settled by
sturdy, self-relianr race. The population
is almost exclusively rural, and the chief
industries are farming and cattle-ra1slng.;
At present the farmers are selling their
cattle at hard time prices for they have
no hayaand they must have bread. But
in thus supplying their immediate wants,
they increase and lengthen their future
sufferings, for one Of their chief articles
of diet is milk, and it will take years to
replace the herds now disposed of for a
trife.
Sweden is pauper country and is not
In the habit of asking fol aid. For
generations there has not been such a
failure of crops, and it is to be hoped
that such disasters will be equally scarce
in the future. Hence this is in all human
probability the first, last, and only time
you will ever be asked to contribute to
any charity for the benefit of the people
of Sweden.

Colon greatly relieves the seriousness
of the situation, and the arrival of the
Dixie tonight relieved the general ap-
prehension here regarding the safety
of American lives and property.
This government, it was said to-
night, is interested but not surprised
to note the European approval of its
policy as shown in the dispatches from
London, Berlin and Paris, but 1t was
added by a high official that the resto-
ration of order on the isthmus and It's
maintenance had long been desired by
the European powers and that the
United States was in reality doing
them and their interests service.
Officials of the administration say
nothing has yet been decided as to our
policy save that it has been decided
to execute the obligations of the Unit
ed States as to affairs on the isthmus
in Panama in accordance with a
broad Interpretation of the treaty OF
1916.
The state department has received
information to the effect that commu-
nication with Buena Ventura, the Co
lombian port on the Pacific coast, and
with the interior points has been re-
stored. This had been interrupted for
a time owing, 1t was supposed, to the
cutting of the cable by the revolu-
tionists. Recourse, it is supposed, has
been had to another cable controlled
by the Central and South American
Telegraph and Cable company which
stretches across the Pacific ocean from
the Colombian shore to point in the
state of Panama, but which avoids the
city where the revolutionists are OPP
Grating. DR.. Herran, the Colombian
charge here, said tonight he had not
received any news from his govern
ment regarding the revolt in Panama,
nor has he had anything from the Off
Gals on the isthmus. He may make
report to his government of the con-
ditions on the isthmus as he learns
them here and of the feeling Of the
United States government in the mat
ter.
1t was said tonight that orders will
be sent to the cruiser Baltimore, now
on her way to San Domingo, to proceed
to Colon.
It was suggested tonight that in the
event of postponement of recognition
of the new government the question
might be referred to congress for ac-
ton,

STRIKE QUESTION is
NOW BEING VOTED ON

CHICAGO, Nov. 5.-Employes of the
Chicago City Railway company, which
operates all the electric and cable
lines on the South side of the city,
have been voting all day on the advis-
ability of ordering strike. The de-
mands Of the men are for an In
crease of pay of four cents an hour
for the men employed on the
electric lines and for the employment
of none but union men. The company
has declined to grant either request,
refusing the first because it is at pres
ent engaged in an argument with the
city over the renewal Of franchises
which are about to expire, and the
terms of which have not been settled,
and denying the latter on the ground,
as stated by officials of the company,
that they cannot see their way clear
to force any man to join any organi-
cation unless he wishes.
The polls close at o'clock Friday
morning, but the result of the vote
will not be known until some time
later. Opinion is divided as to the re-
suit of the vote, but the officers of
the union are confident that the men
will decide to strike. 1t is not prob
able. however, that there will be an
immediate walkout, as the sentiment
among the men favors renewed effort
to reach settlement before entering
upon a fight with the company

T. 3. WALKER DENIES CHARGES.
Declares That Accusations of Timber
Frauds Are SANDERS.


Possibly there have been some fraud
ulent practices in some of the Oregon.
Washington or California land offices but
will guarantee that these will not equal
those found in the postal department. or
various other public bureaus.
Though the frauds in other depart
mentsz have been much greater than in
the land department. none of these other
public institutions will be legislated out
OF existence nor the laws that make them
of advantage to the public repealed"
The above are the closing paragraphs
OF an interview with T.. B. Walker, the
Minneapolis lumberman, printed in the
current issue of the Mississippi Valley
Zimmerman. The subject of the inter-
view was the report that immense frauds
have been committed in the location of
public~Sn on the Pacific coast by lum-
bermen of Minneapolis and other places.
The reports of Western land frauds
have been greatly. exaggerated centin-
ued Mr.. Walker. 1.-THE statement that
certain lumbermen. including myself. have
sent delegations of people employed and
acting in our interest to California. Ore
gon. Washington and Idaho to secure
lands through the timber and stone act
contrary to the intent and spirit of the
law, is an unwarranted miSrepresenta-
ton
These continued and reiterated charges
of fraud are slanderous and unsuitable
and tend to create prejudice and misun-
derstanding on the part of the public"

DEATHS OF THE DAY.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Nov. 5.-The death of
Mrs. Mary e. Schenley, which occurred
yesterday at her home in Hyde Park, Lon
and the news was received with many
expressions of sorrow. Mrs. Schenley has
been Pittsburg's benefactress for many
years, and arrangements are in progress
for special meeting of councils to take
action on her death. Her residence
abroad has not prevented her having the
welfare of her old home at heart. This
has been evidenced by her many donations
of land and money to worthy charities and
local enterprises.

i{f3l
Doesn't Be'1evelnshlp Subsidy
Says Business, Not a
Bonus, Is Needed.

+ 81. 49,
1--WE must count ourselves out Of
the family of trading nations or get
in the game and play with the same
kind of chips that other nations use,'
said James J. Hill last night in an adj
dress at the Minneapolis club.
The above statement was made in
reference to the shipsubsidy. in which
Mr.. Hill said he did not believe.
What we need is business and not
bonus. No one wants to own and
operate ships in this country now UNI
less they can connect with the United
States treasury. But we must create
business and then there will be those
who will be willing to own and oper-
ate ships without subsidy
Mr.. Hill spoke on the subject of
transportation with reference to trade
in the Orient, and briefly reviewed the
history of the difficulties with which
the railroads had to contend when
they extended their lines to the Pa
cific coast.
Chinese Merchants the Shrewdest.
He expressed a high hope for the
future Of China. The Chinese mer-
chant he regarded ahead of the Jap
anese, and possessed Of as keen an in
sight into commercial values as any
merchant in the world. He referred to
a Russian Jew who was in his en-
ploy in the Chinese empire for two
years, who, upon his return, said to
Mr.. Hill that the Chinese people were
the only ones in the world who were
able to trade the eye out of a Hebrew.
Mr.. Hill looked with hope toward a
flour trade with China because barrel
of flour may now, he said, be trans
ported from Minneapolis and laid down
in Hongkong for about the same that
it costs the Chinese to transport it 800
miles from the interior of their own
country While the country is made up
of people who cannot afford Injuries,
Mr.. Hill believed that a large trade
could still be built UP on account of
the enormous population which lives
along the sea coast in the rice-eating
country, far from the interior, wheat
producing country, which, in the flu
ture, might become a formidable rival.
Kingsland Smith, the London rep
resentative of the Northwestern Miller,
who was a special guest last evening,
spoke on the trade situation in the
Orient, from which he has just arrived
on tour around the world in the in
terests of the Northwestern Miller.
Australia Buying, Not Selling.
He has visited China, Australia, ia
pan and other countries in the East,
and gave a number of detailed express
sions on the result of his investiga-
lions. Australia, he said, was buying
instead of selling, as has been the case
for several years in the past, and the
prospects for further extension of the
flour trade seemed brighter than ever.

western Miller to its London represent
ative and the representatives in this

PRESIDENT TO DECLARE POLICY
New Government at Panama Likely to
Be Recognized.

New Government at Panama Likely to
Be Recognized.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. g.
The president probably will make a
statement tomorrow regarding the
provisional government of the republic
of Panama, of the establishment of
which this government was officially
informed today. In view of the latest
advices from Colon to the effect that
the junta has succeeded in gaining
control of the situation it IS currently
expected that this government will
recognize the newly established gov
eminent, but it was impossible to Sc
cure official information on this point
The decision to make an announce
ment tomorrow was reached after d
conference at the White house tonight
of the president, Secretary Hay, Sec
rotary Moody, Assistant Secretary
LOOMS, Rear Admiral John G. Walker
(retired), and Rear Admiral Henry O..
Taylor, chief of the bureau of naviga-
ton. Secretary Hay and Secretary
later were joined by the other officials.
The conference ended shortly after IL
o'clock
A cablegram was received tonight
from the American consul at Colon
saying that the 400 Colombian troops
which arrived there Monday on the
Carthagena had sailed away.
This government will conduct af-
fairs with firm hand in the execution
of the treaty of 1916. Orders have
been sent to the various naval COM
manders in the Caribbean that the
1Sthmus is to be policed, the transit
kept open and also that bloodshed
must be prevented at any cost. This is
further than the United States has
ever gone heretofore, and in the opin-
ion of officials here indicates that the
establishment of the new government
at Panama, If it proves stable and
orderly, will have the good wishes Of
the United States and our legitimate
recognition and cooperation in con-
Quoting an orderly and permanent
government on the isthmus. Advocates
of the construction of the Panama ca
nal say this assures the execution OF
that project.
1t was learned tonight that the Prai-
RE will sail from League Island next
week with 800 marines for Guantan-
amo and that in case the situation
continues serious on the isthmus the
Prairie will proceed thence to Colon
and land additional marines.
The dispatch received from the eX-
ecutive board of the new government
announcing the establishment of the
provisional government of the republic
of Panama stated that it's action was
in response to a popular and sponta-
neous demand on the part of the 18TH
milan people, and that the board was
assured of the necessary military
strength to carry out it's determine
ton.
1t was first intended to send a reply
to the three consuls but after the con-
ference tonight it was decided that
no announcement would be made as to
the character of this reply until to-
morrow.

United States court in this city by
which they sought to have her de-
clared a bankrupt. She demanded a
jury trial, which resulted in a dis
agreement. She then, in the state cir
cult court, applied for and was granted
an injunction restraining the creditors
from interfering with her property. The
creditors answered this by instituting
an action in the United States court
asking that the injunction be dissolved.
Judge Garland has just completed
hearing the arguments in the case, and
has granted an order dissolving the
injunction, as prayed for by the cred
