No Successor to DIR. Curry.

1t is probable that no general
agent of the Peabody Educational
Fund will be appointed to succeed
the late DIR. Jabez L. M. Curry.
Former Secretary of the Interior
Hoke Smith, member of the Board of
Trustees of the fund, made the fol-
lowing statement last week:
"I cannot undertake to say what
the Executive Committee will do,
but I see no necessity of selecting a
successor to DR.. Curry. Prof. G. r.
Glenn, who was his assistant, can
perform the limited amount of work
which will be needed between the
present time and the first of October.
If the plans formulated in January
by the Board of Trustees for the es-
Enlistment of a teachers college are
carried out, there will be no neces-
sity for a general agent representing
the trustees"

Columbian treaty, the consideration
of which will be resumed immediate
ly. Mr.. Morgan's friends say that
if he is permitted sufficient time to
voice his objections and explain the
numerous amendments he has Of
fered, he will not flibuster on the
convention, and although the Sen
ator refuses to commit himself, the
leaders have accepted this statement
and will endeavor to afford the Ala
bama Senator all the time he de-
sires.
There is still an INTANGIBLE but I'M
mistakable opposition to the Cuban
treaty, quite apart from the Demo
cratic Senators whose antagonism is
open and above board. This opposi-
ton, which is working in-the dark,
is difficult to meet, and may be e
tually defeat the treaty, although
such is not the anticipation of the
Republican managers. Opinion is
divided as to whether the Cuban
treaty can be ratified without an *
ira session. Senator Aldrich assures
your correspondent of this ~convic-
ton that the agreement will stand
approved when the 4th of March ar
rives, but Senators Lodge and Cul-
lom both take a contrary view and
assert their belief that an extra ses-
sion of the Senate will be necessary.
That there will be no extra session
of the whole Congress is now evil

MAMMOTH UNION.
Great Scheme On Which John Mitchell is
Working.

indianapolis, Feb. 28.-It became
known at the United States Mine
Workers headquarters here to-day
that President John Mitchell is en-
gagged in a scheme to form a mann
moth organization of the national
unions of the country, each OF which
will be pledged to a gigantic system
of b~oycotting all products of facto-
ries that are not made by union la
Dor.
Mr.. MitcheI's idea in forming the
organization is to prevent the coal
mined by non-union miners from
reaching the market. 1t will be done
through the opposition of union men
who will refuse to work in mills and
factories when the coal comes from
a non-union mine. It is said the ap-
peal of the Chicago authorities not
to contract for non-union mined coal
is the first step in the proposed move
ment, and that negotiations are I'M
der way with the leaders of other or
CARNATIONS which promise to result
in a national agreement which will
shut all non-union made goods out
of the markets. According to the
plans which Mitchell has outlined
union clerks will refuse to sell cloth
ing made in non-union establish
ments.

GENERAL NEWS
Our Washington Letter.
Editor of The Progressive Farmer:

Inc OJaCenOOQ ngnJ, aIC6r u
ing the attention of the Senate dur
ing the greater portion of the pres
ent session, is virtually concluded
and no Statehood legislation will be
enacted at this session of Congress.
The Republican members, headed by
Senator Quay for the Statehood adj
vocates, and Senator Aldrich for the
opposition, finally agreed upon a
compromise measure drafted by Sen
ator Spooner, which provided for
the admission of Oklahoma as one
State, with the provision that In
dian Territory should be eventually
added thereto, and Arizona and New
Mexico as another State. This meas
ure was rejected by the unanimous
vote of a Democratic caucus, and,
while the Statehood bill remains the
unfinished business of the Senate,
the fight has been abandoned.
The results of the long contest
may be summed up as follows: The
educational clause of the immigra-
ton bill, which was intended to keep
out of the United States the lowest
class of immigrants, whose continued
arrival operates to keep down wages
and lower the standard of living of
the American workmen, was defeat
ed. The eight hour labor law has
not been voted upon, but still re-
mains under consideration in COM
mittee. The tariff discussion urged
by Democrats and such adherents of
the "Iowa idea" as Senator Deliver
and other Republicans, was prevent
ed. There has been no consideration
of the Littlefeld antitrust bill, which
was ~favorably reported by the Ju-
dietary Committee.
Congress has passed the Philippine
coinage bill authorizing the coinage
of the peso, or 50-cent dollar and
establishing a ratio for silver in the
islands of 30 to 1. Governor Taft,
Secretary Root, Senator Lodge and
others familiar with Philippine con-
ditions believe the measure will prove
the much-needed remedy for the
present financial distress in the Phil
ippines and, although the measure
was opposed by the Democrats, they
permitted it to become a law with
the hope hat it might relieve the
serious conditions now prevailing in
the Philippines.
The House has passed all the APP
preparation bills and is now consid-
ering the Fowler currency bill which
it is admitted will not be considered
by the Senate. The Senate, since
the raising of the Statehood block
ade, has made most satisfactory
progress with the appropriation bills,
only the naval and the general de-
f~ciency bills, among the more i'm
pOrtant measures, awaiting consider
alton. The Columbian and Cuban
treaties still await ratification and
the President has reiterated his de-
termination to call the Senate in nv-

DR.. Calling, Inventor of Calling Gun,
and a Native of North Carolina, Dies
in New York.
New York, Feb. 26.-Dr. r. j.
Gatling, the aged inventor of the gun
which bears his name, died suddenly
in this city to-day.
Richard Jordan Gatling was born
in Hartford County, N. c., Septem-
Der u, 1918. As a boy he assisted
his father in perfecting a machine
for sowing cotton-seed; later he in
vented a machine for sowing rice,
adapted it to sowing wheat and pat
ented it. DR.. Calling graduated at
the Ohio Medical College in 1850, but
never practiced the profession. His
most notable invention, or at least
the one which perhaps did most to
make him famous, was the Gatling
gun, which he perfected in 1862, and
which is still among the artillery
equipment of the United States
Army. By its use thousands of shots
may be fired per minute out of a
pepper-box cannon barrel controlled
by a crank arrangement. In 1866,
DR.. Gatling invented a gun metal
composed of steel and aluminium. He
also invented a hemp-breaking ma
chine, a steam pillow and other ma
chimes. Some years ago Congress
voted him $4,000 for proof expert
ments in a new method of casting
cannons. It has been said of DR..
Calling that the horror of war as
shown by the return home of wound
ed and dead soldiers early in the
Civil War induced him to attempt
the invention of a gun which would
take the place of a number of rifles
and require only a few men to op-
crate it, and that the death-dealing
machine affair which bears his name
is the result of this effort.

HEAVY RAIN DOES DAMAGE
Unusually Heavy Rainfall Sunday Night
Floods Streets and Overflows Base
ments. Doing Considerable Damage.

A severe electrical storm, with a
vivid display of lightning and torren-
tial downpour of rain occurred last
night, beginning shortly after ten
o'clock and lasting until after mid
night. In the course of the storm
2.30 inches of precipitation occurred
flooding the streets, overflowing drains
and cutters, depositing temporary
lakes in some parts of the city, and
in some instances working consider
able property loss. On lower Fourth
street and on Main street, the i'm
mense flow of water covered the side
walks. and worked its way into base
ment and cellars causing property loss
in a number of instances.
The storm was the severest of the
season, and followed a similar storm
on the preceding night, which was of
less violence. The electrical display
last night was vivid and continuous
for nearly an hour and there was a
continual succession of Lightning

Saturdays Game.

ST. Cloud took the first game Satur-
day by {, score of to 2, with Blexrud
pitching for Bismarck and Kilroy for
St. Cloud. Diamond was badly cut up
in the first inning, in an attempt to
steal third, being spiked by Richards
and suffering a severe scalp wound
that put him out of the game. John
son got foul tip that put him into the
clear for an inning. The locals were
suffering from buck fever, scoring
twice in the fifth inning, when Bart
ron passed, Smittle hit for two sacks
and Middleton followed with drive
that scored both. St. Cloud scored
once in the first, twice in the fifth and
seventh and once in the eighth and
ninth. Blexrud was not given his
usual good support, and Kilroy held the
locals down to three hits. The score:

rain fell heavily all through the storm.
Water overflowed the walk at the first
National bank building, and the base
ment was damaged to some extent by
a few inches of water which found its
way in. John Homans cellar and
basement suffered to the extent of a
few inches of water which found its
way in through the north side, under
the basement wall The Fair store on
Main street was heavy loser, the en-
tire basement, which was filled with
goods, being flooded with water which
came in from the rear of the building.
Other similar losses, but on a much
smaller scale are reported at other
places through the city, numerous Gel
lars being filled or partly filed
H. Moser of the Fair store says
there was about 81 500 worth of goods
in the basement of the store, which
was flooded. 1t was mostly underwear
and overshoes. He cannot tell what
the damage will be until the water is
pumped out of the basement, but it
will be a considerable sum.
