VACANCIES IN CABINET
NOW NUMBER FOUR.
Only Surprise i'm Appointments May

Only Surprise in Appointments May
BE in War ONCE.
London, Sept. 20.--Lord Balfour of
Burleigh, secretary for Scotland and
Arthur Ralph Douglas Elliot, flnan-
cial secretary to the treasury, have re-
signed and their designations have
been accepted by the King Mr. Ell
liot was not in the cabinet. These
two designations make a total of four
vacant cabinet posts and one secre-
taryship at Mr.. Balfour's disposition.
With the resignation of Lord Bal
four and Financial Secretary Elliot,
both strong free traders, it is under
stood that the ministerial designations
are completed and apparently the Duke
of Devonshire has decided to remain
in the cabinet.
1t is practically decided that Austen
Chamberlain, Lord Miner and Mr.
Broderick will take the exchequer, coll
onies and India portfolios, respective
ly, and the only surprise in the new
appointments is likely to be the nom
nation of a strong man to the war
office to determine how far the recon-
mendations of the South African war
commission can be carried out.
Home Secretary Ackers- Douglass
started for Balmoral tonight and he
will probably be involved in the re-
construction changes.

PARK CARRIES FIGHT
TO KANSAS CITY.
Delegation Sent by Suspended Union
and New One.

Delegation Sent by Suspended Union
and New One.
Kansas City. Mo-. Sept. 2O.-Samuel
Parks of New York, arrived in this
city tonight to attend the convention
of the International Bridge and Struc-
tural Iron Workers which will meet
here tomorrow. His arrival aroused
much anxiety among the delegates al
ready here, which presages lively
fight when the Committee on Creden-
tails shall report to the convention in
the morning.
Parks is a member of Local No. %,
which was suspended by President
Buchanan after Parks recent i'm
prisonment and another Local Union
No 2, was established. The Execu-
tive Committee of the organization did
not ratify the action of President Bu-
chanan and Parks and his partisans
assert that the action of the president
is therefore null and void.
The local union of which Parks was,
or is a member in New York, has sent
a delegation of which Parks is a MEM
Der to the convention and the local un-
ion Which was organized after Parks
and his local union were suspended,
also sent n delegation.
The strength of the Parks and anti
Parks factions in the convention will
be decided when one of these contest
ing delegations shall be seated Each
faction is unyielding in its attitude.
President Frank Buchanan of Chicago,
who is an anti-Parks man, is a cam
didate for reelection. H. F. Donnelly
OF Albany, N. Y, Parks supporter, is
also candidate for president.

FIVE MURDERS IN WORTH.
Omcers Making Effort to Weed Out
the LaMless.

NANAAhS ~ :" ecu OOt
the Lawless.
Albany, Ca, Sept. 20.--Within the last
twelve months five brutal murders
have been committed in a small area
in the western part of Worth county.
The last crime was that of William
Virgins, d negro. who shot and in
stantly killed Henry Cheatham.
Virgins was captured two or three
days ago in Alabama by officers from
this county who had followed him, but
the other four murderers are still at
large. There has been good deal of
comment in Worth county on the fact
that so many dangerous criminals have
been allowed to escape punishment, and
consequently good deal of satisfaction
is expressed that Virgins has been
captured. He was lodged in Jail at Isa-
bella yesterday afternoon.
The western section of Worth has
earned a rather unenviable reputation
during the last year on account of lis
criminal record, and the officers are
making a commendable effort to restore
the conditions of peace and quiet which
formerly prevailed. 1t is believed that
the four murderers still at large will
yet be captured and punished.

PALMA TELLS CUBANS
OF BENEFITS SECURED
Tells Veterans He Wants Very MucI
to Pay Them,

Tells Veterans He Wants Very Much
to Pay Them.
Santiago de Cuba, Sept. 2O.-Speaking
to-day at the village of Ell Caney, close
to the scene of the battle between the
Americans and the Spaniards, Presi-
dent Palma urged the Cuban people
present to guard jealously the ideals
they had obtained by means of inter-
Vention.
The presidential party were enthu-
siastically received on their arrival at
FL Caney. The Alcalde having re-
marked that the gathering was mostly
composed of veterans President Palma
assured them he wanted to pay the
army as badly as anybody because the
payment was not only an act of JUS
tice, but was necessary to the recon-
struction of the country.
Nobody loved Cuban independence
more than himself continued the Pres
ident. The only way to sacrifice the
republic would be to bring about civil
war, He believed there was not one
veteran in a thousand who would not
prefer to maintain the honor of Cuba
even to the extent of forfeiting his SOL
dier's pay. The Cubans had accepted
United States intervention as a means
of ending their troubles, were under
an obligation to follow those ideals
and prove themselves a peaceable peo-
pie.
Speaking of the appearance of the
band of insurrectionists near Santia-
go, President Palma condemned the
hidden instigators of the uprising The
Alcalde declared that no one within
two leagues of Ell Caney had Joined the
band.

HEAVY COTTON LOSS
REPORTED AT ALBANY.
Past Week Developed Shortage of
1890 Bales.

Past Week Developed Shortage of
1890 Bales.
Albany, Ga, Sept 2O.A better idea
of the extent of the damage wrought
to the cotton crop in this part of the
state by the torrential rains of last
Sunday and Monday may be had
through a comparison of market re-
ceipts, although reports of the havoc
wrought have been generally full.
The wagon receipts of the Albany
market for the week Immediately pre-
ceding the storm reached total of
1929 bales, the receipts for the last
DAY of that week, Saturday, the 18th,
being 713 bales.
1t was the confident expectation of
cotton men that the receipts of the
following week would be nearly so per
cent greater than for the six days
Immediately preceding the storm. 1t
is believed the weeks total would be
about $500 bales, not counting that re-
ceived by rail, and that yesterdays
receipts would exceed 1000 bales.
AS a matter of fact. yesterdays re-
ceipts by this market barely reached
450 bales while for the week but 1901
bales were reported by the local ware
houses. This was a shortage for the
week in this market alone of about
1900 bales. When it is taken into con-
sideration that throughout this whole
section, as we'll as in portions of other
states, weather conditions almost
identical with those which prevailed
here on last Sunday and Monday were
reported. it is readily seen that the
loss to the farmers was heavy. Thous-
ands Of pounds of open cotton was
beaten into the ground, and another
week will pass before receipts will be
up to their normal stage.

LABOR UNION OFFERS
ROOSEVELT ADVICE.
Attacks His Attitude ON the Open
ShOp Question.

Attacks His Attitude ON the Omen
shop Question.
Chicago, Sept 20.-President Roose-
welt to-day was voted by the Chicago
Federation of labor 5000 word let
ter of advice in which fault is found
with the Presidents attitude on the
question of open shops. The letter was
prompted by the decision of Presi-
dent Roosevelt in the Miller case in
which the President said that Miller
or any man must not be discharged
from the government printing office
ON account of on-membership in a
union.
"Deliciously unaware of the hypro-
crisy of the world of finance" honest
and humane but uniformed" were
some of the clauses used to describe
the President in the long letter of
the open shop committee.
Its opening paragraphs contained a
definite disclaimer of any wish to at
tack Mr.. Roosevelt, the blame for the
chief executives attitude in the Miller
affair being placed on "a coterie OF
certain we'll known interests which
are constantly on guard around" the
White House. The President was told
that he fell into error in his view OF
the question because of that impetu-
osity for which we love you" A copy
of the communication will be forward
ed to Oyster Bay at once under date
of Labor Day, Sept. I.
The reading of the letter before the
federation meeting to-day occupied over
an hour, and excited applause from the
crowd of delegates.

Panama, Colombia, Sept Ex-senator
Obaldia to-day took over the functions
of governor of Panama. The event
was the occasion for great popular DEM
onstrations by all parties. 1t is thought
that the appointment of Gov. Obal-
dia may perhaps exert influence
against secessionist ideas, not only be-
cause he is a native of Panama, which
fact engages for him the sympathies
of all, but because his appointment ap-
parently is part of a general plan, the
result of which will be the election of
Gen. Reyes to the presidency and the
approval of a canal treaty satisfactory
TO the United States.
Gov. Obaldia, in reply to DR.. Floren-
tine Goenaga, president of the High
Court of Justice, said: Il maintain
because they were we'll meditated, the
sincere opinions 1 expressed as a sena-
tor of the republic. 1 consider that the
interests of the world urgently demand
the construction of a canal, and they
have a right to ask our cooperation.
The concessions, the object of which is
to serve these interests, though they
may imply a sacrifice of sovereignty,
are not against the national dignity
We cannot deny civilization what it re-
quires from us-to continue it's victori-
Gus march"
All the speeches delivered at to-days
function, not only by Isthmians, but
by natives of the rest of the republic,
demonstrated that all the inhabitants
of Panama are in favor of the treaty.
Herran's New Communication.
Washington. Sept 20.-Interest in the
Panama canal situation now centers
in the communication which DR.. Her
ran, the Colombian charge, recently
submitted to the State Department
from his government.
Just what the nature of this is, DR..
Herran and the State Department Off
Gals decline to say on the ground that
it is of a confidential character, but
it is understood that it is in the nature
of proposition which will keep alive
the canal negotiations with the Co
lombian government after the expira-
ton of Sept. 90 at which time the
existing treaty expires by limitation,
unless there should be a considerable
revulsion of feeling in the Colombian
Senate in favor of the HayHerran
agreement that is believed to be dead
by Minister Beaupre at Bogota and
by South American diplomats in Wash
ington.

NEW YORK IRISHMEN
u HONOR ROBERT EMMETT.
want C1an-N1-GaeI to Establish
Irish Republic,

Irish Republic.
New York, Sept 20.-The Academy
of Music was filled to overlooking to-
night by a meeting held under the
auspices of the Clan-Na-G Gael to COM
memorate the centenary of the mar
tyrdom of Robert Emmett.
The auditorium was draped with
American and Irish flags and the Irish
national spirit found expression in
continuous applause as the speakers
dwelt upon Ireland's wrongs and the
hopes of Irelands sons.
Resolutions were passed declaring
the only proper settlement of the differ
ences between Ireland and England to
be the abolition of English rule in Ire
land and pledging the Clan-Na-Gael to
work for the establishment of an Irish
republic.
The orator of the evening was for
mer United States Senator Charles A.
Towne of Minnesota. Mr.. Towne pic
tured the scene of Emmet's death,
which he declared was one of the most
pathetic tragedies in all history. 1T
is hopeful spectacle he said, for
the man is the incarnation of an idea,
and that, please God, nothing can ever
kill"
After referring to the incident of the
executioner lifting Emmet's severed
head and crying out. This is the head
of a traitor!" the speaker continued:
THAT was 100 years ago, and we are
assembled here tonight to do honor
to the memory. not of a traitor, but
of one whose name is written among
the foremost martyrs for the cause
of liberty.
80 long as there is injustice, the
Irish will resent it. We are here to
renew our allegiance to the cause for
which Emmett died. We are here to reaf-
firm our fealty to that great principle,
upon which the American republic was
founded and upon which Emmett wish
ed to found an Irish republic, namely,
the national right of every nation to
have the guidance of it's own affairs.
THE right to independence is just
as inherent in the nation as the right
to life and liberty is to the individual
The highest right in the world is tc
maintain the nations liberty and the
obligation to maintain it dwarfs all
other duties"

Chattanooga, Tenn, Sept. 20.-Paul
Wessler, collector for the Chattanooga
Brewery, has confessed to the theft
of $549 of which he claimed he was
robbed on Saturday night by unknown
men.
Wessler was placed in the city Jail,

soon tied the story of Wessler into
such a tangle as to force him to openly
confess that he had himself created it
and that he had secreted the money

flesh wounds and his shirt cut and
slashed with a knife blade, the man
admitted that he had inflicted the
