MoRMoNs INVADING CANADA.
Thousands Flocking to Northwest Ter
ritory For Land and Homes.


Minneapolis, Oct. 7.-Mormons are
rapidly settling the choicest lands in
the Canadian northwest, according to
e. V. Carnage, of Lethbridge, Alberta,
Dominion of Canada, VINO is in the
Twin Cities.
Gin three or four years. declared Mr..
Carnage, there will not be an acre of
government land left. People are rush
ing to Alberta by the thousands. In the
vicinity of Stirling there is large coll
ony of Mormons who came to the coun-
try few years ago as workmen on an
irrigation system. They received part
of their remuneration In land and have
been there ever since.
ut has been discovered that the land
is extremely fertile and productive
without irrigation and the crops now
raised are on the naturally watered
land. The wheat crop has been fine
this year. A good beet crop has also
been raised this year in Alberta. The
Mormons have built large beet sugar
factories in their settlements and the
beet sugar industry will be one of the
biggest Of the northwest.
There are about 10000 Mormons in
Alberta now, and / venture to say that
before this time next year there will be
$4,000, for the elders of the church are
too astute to forego such a valuable
acquisition to the real estate of the

point of order.
A resolution condemning the lynch

delegates from Georgia, Mississippi and
North Carolina, who sought TO table 1t.
The reports on remarrage of di-
vorced persons were presented.
The proposal to change the name Of
the church In the United States re-
ceived unfavorable action.
These were features of the days
work in the house of delegates, and at
times the debate bordered on the ex-
citing, especially on the resolution
condemning the lynching of negroes.
The resolution was offered in the
house of delegates by Senator Joseph
H. Stotensburg, of Indianapolis, who
requested that the church give express
sion to a denunciation of the crime.
Deputy j. c.. Buxton of North Caro-
lima, physically the biggest man in
the convention, opposed all considera

it be laid on the table. He was sup
ported by delegates from Mississippi
and Georgia.
DESPITE the opposition of the south

not do extraordinary things without

the bishop had dragged the name OF
the Episcopal church in the mire, as
he had no right to do.

A BIG MAN FAILED
Loree's Retirement From Presidency Of
Rock Island and Highest Salary In
the World Carries Resignation Of
Whole Administration.

Chicago, Oct. 1.-THE resignation of
L. f. Loree, the 100000 president" of
the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific
Railway Company, it has developed is
to be of far reaching effect. In it are
involved dissatisfaction with eastern
ideas in the management of western
railroads and return to the methods
in force before Mr.. Loree was induced
to leave the Baltimore and Ohio to
come west
The first indication Of this phase of
the difficulty came in the resignation
yesterday of c. S. McKim, general sup
erintendent Of the Rock Island system.
The resignation was promptly accept
ed. Mr.. McKim was formerly superin-
tendent of telegraph for the Pennsylli
vania road, and was one Of 200 rail-
way officials brought west by President
Loree when he assumed the manage
mept--- the Rock Island.
N.4(McKim will be succeeded by W..
H. Hobbs, assistant general superin-
tendent Of transportation, who has
been in the service of the Rock Island
for the last thirty years, and is con-
sidered one of the most competent
operating officials in this country.
There are other indications that the
next man to go Is likely to be II. 1.
Miller, general manager of the Rock
Island system, whom Mr.. Loree brought
from the Vandalia. Other changes in
minor positions are expected soon.
While none Of the railway men in
terested in the new regime of the Rock
Island would say in so many words
that Mr.. Loree, the highest paid rail-
road president in the world had failed
to achieve the success expected in the
handling of the property, it was plain
that his first years administration had
brought only disappointment to the
men in control. Mr.. Loree was enticed

men and $SS,6O0.000 to contractors. BY
1892 public clamor became so insistent
that rigid investigation was set on
foot by the authorities, and as result
directors Of the company and members
of the chamber of deputies and OF the
senate were brought to trial on charges
of fraud, bribery and corruption. OF
those convicted Ferdinand de Lesseps.
who was then paralytic unable to ap-
pear in court, was sentenced to five
years imprisonment; his son Charles
received like sentence, and Gustave
Eiffel, the contractor, was also given
similar punishment. No attempt was
made to enforce the sentence against
the elder De Lesseps, who died In the
course of the following year, a broken
hearted man.
Such is the recuperative nature of
the French people that the very year
De Lesseps died a new company was
formed to complete the canal. 1t was
definitely determined to abandon the
tidewater scheme and to construct in
stead a canal 2914 feet deep. with
summit level Of 81 feet, a second level
Of 68 feet and third Of 33 feet above
the sea. It was proposed to control
the Chagres river by dam at Bohio
and to build another dam farther up
the Chagres for the purpose OF sup
plying water to the summit level. An
international technical commission OF
engineers examined the new company's
plans and made favorable report, the
estimated cost Of completing the canal
being $102,40o,oo0.
With renewed courage the promoters
set to work and with the limited cap
ital at their disposal made fair progress
for a time. Little by little, however,
they began to lose heart. and when the
United States government made its Of
fer to purchase their properties on the
isthmus and undertake the completion
Of the canal they were only too glad to
sell, although they held out for some
time against accepting the proffered
price OF 100000 The subsequent

ton which established it is too recent

Progress, however, was exasperatingly
slow. yellow fever combining with the

where the uneasy shareholders were
anxiously specializing as to the ulti-
mate outcome. For time disaster
was averted through bold tactics.
Loans were negotiated by skillful bull
ing of the company's shares, and large
sums were paid as hush money and to
secure the support of the French press.
In 1886 crisis came when the COM
pany applied to the chamber OF depu-
ties for permission to raise lottery
loan. 1t was represented that 1874. 2O0.-
900 had been expended on construction,
whereas but $34,200,000 had been ac-
tually so used. The company's applica-
ton was refused, however, and then
De Lesseps undertook to negotiate an
ordinary loan for $120,000,00O.
Meanwhile the French government
had sent out an engineer to examine
the route, and CONSERVATION was wide
spread when he reported that it was
impracticable. But the promoters
chung to their enterprise. Bribery of
legislators was alleged to have been re-
sorted to on a wholesale scale in the
hope of securing the enactment OF ia
vorable legislation. In 1888 there was
a second application for lottery loan,
ssnd a plan for a lock canal was pre-
sented. This loan was authorized by
the chambers, and in order to float 1T
prospectuses containing deliberate mis-
statements were issued broadcast. An
idea Of the way in which money was
dissipated may be gathered from the
fact that a banker received $4,000
merely for suggesting the second lot
terry loan. 100000 went toward OBJ
tanning publicity, nearly 100000 was
placed to the account OF syndicate eS-

cians-and all this in connection with

DENEEN WILL COME.
An Exchange Of Dates With cumn,ins
Has Been Arranged.


Has Been Arranged.
Des Moines, Oct. 7.-Governor Cum
Minis has consented to make a speech
in Illinois on Saturday night, October
Is, so that Charles Deneen the repub-
lican candidate for governor of Illinois
ma" make a speech in Iowa.
Negotiations between the state COM
migtees OF the republican party OF the

sent t.. speak in that state. This was

consented to the date mentioned.
1t is necessary however, that place
be selected which will permit him to

morning, that he may be able to get
into Ohio for the campaign beginning
the next day. This is the only condi-
ton on the arrangement.
The state committee plans on placing
Mr.. Deneen at Burlington. Des Moines
county is said to be certainly republic
can this year. but it is thought to be
wise to have this meeting in that city.
If possible. 1t is also probable that
Mr.. Deneen may be heard at Clinton
the same day.
Governor Cummins has been COM
PEELED to give UP the idea Of going to
Ottumwa October "a. The arrange
ments for this meeting have been par
TALLY made, the local committee at OF
tumwa being insistent that he speak
there, and proceeding with the work.
The state committee has been trying to
rearrange dates SO as to make it pos
sible, but it was decided yesterday
that the meeting could not be ar
ranged.
The governor is to be at West Bend
on October "a. His other dates for that
week are as follows: October %, Clar-
ion; October 26, Schleswig; October n,

A NEW REMEDY.

Perhaps the strangest use to which
music can be put is to stop the flow OF
blood from wound. An army doctor
noticed that when wounded soldier
was taken to within an easy hearing
distance OF music hemorrhaSe was
greatly reduced or stopped.
Neither he nor others who confirmed
his observations could understand how
this phenomenon was brought about,
but it is now believed that the vibra-
ton OF the air produced by the music
causes the patient to become faint. in
which case the action Of the heart IL go
considerably lessened that the overflow
