GLOBE STARTS FUND
FOR GOOD SHEPHERD
VIII Receive Contributions for
the Relief of Crippled Char
table Institution

To relieve the suffering of the un-
fortunate, destitute sisters and inmates
of the House of the Good Shepherd in
cident to the recent cyclone, T h e
Globe announces that it will take the
initiative in starting a general sub
scription fund for the benefit of the in
stitution.-
House of the Coed Shepherd Relief
T h e G o b e............ 500. 90
The object in starting this fund is
to present an opportunity for private
subscriptions, not only to those in st.
Paul and Minneapolis, but throughout
the state and the Northwest. Con-
flee of T h e Glob e, or by H. c. Nc
Nair, Room 32S Endicott building, Mr..
McNair being chairman of the relief
committee appointed to aid in assist
ing the afflicted institution. Acknowl-
edgment of contributions will be print
ed daily in T e Clio b e.
The call for aid for the House of the
Good Shepherd has gone out to the
entire Northwest. An official examina-
ton of the damage inflicted at the in
stitution by the cyclone reveals much
greater disaster than was at first sup
posed. The work of repairing the
| damage will cost $4,000. Without as
sistance from the public the. struggling
! sisters in charge of the institution are
| destitute and helpless, besides being
! weighed down with the sorrows OF
! death.

WHEAT TAKES DROP
OF SEVEN CENTS
September Option Finishes Far
Below the Figures of
Tuesday
CLOSING PRICES

September wheat slumped Z cents
Yesterday, and the decline since the
close on Saturday has been 1875 cents,
something almost unprecedented in the
history of the grain trade in Mime
apolis.
The September option opened seven
1eighths of a cent below the close on
Tuesday and sagged all the day, the
price closing only three -eighths of
cent above the bottom.
Weakness characterized the market
and there was steady decline in the
price. Heavy stop loss orders added
to the depression and the general pub
lie seemed to be eliminated from the
situation.
Experienced traders assert there is
less logic in the sudden decline than
there was in the skyrocket advance of
the cereal.
The spring wheat crop has been
badly damaged, and there is no ques-
ton but the quality has deteriorated.
and with large short interest and the
condition of the Canadian crop a mat
ter of guesswork, there is every pros
pect of a decided upturn to the market
at any time
Pessimistic reports are received re-
garding the crop on the American side
of the line and from the Canadian
Northwest the returns madeNby the ex-
perts in the field are conflicting.
If the reports from the experts who
are touring Canada are in line with the
doleful intelligence from the Dakotas,
there is every prospect of bull mar
ket which will make the last furry
pale into insignificance.
The bull leaders have cleaned up a
large amount of money, but, being
thrifty, they are not constrained to
permit an opportunity to make more
money to pass. The bulls say they are

ON 'PIN0S
Says by "seIf- Government" He
Meant independence

Special to The Globe
NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-The follow
ing letters, which are eself-explanatory
were exchanged between John G. Mil
burn one of President Clevelands
trusted advisers, and Judge Parker on
the Philippine question:
Red Beach, East River, Conn.,, Aug. 20
Ny Dear Judge Parker: / have noticed
in some quarters a disposition to criticise
the words 'tself-government," used by you
in connection with the future. Of the Phil
ippine islands, as meaning something less
than independence, and 1 venture to ask
you if am not right in assuming that
self government as you used the
phrase is identical with independence,
political and territorial?
John G. Milburn
Rosemount, Esopus, N. Y, Aug. 22.-
My Dear Milburn: You are entirely right
in assuming that as l employed the
phrase self government it was intended
to be identical with independence, politi-
cal and territorial. After noting criticism
referred to by you 1 am still unable to
understand how it can be said that
people enjoy self government while an
other nation may in any degree whatever
control their actions. But to take away all
possible opportunity for conjecture, 1t
will be made clear in the letter of ac-
ceptance that am in hearty accord with
that plank in the Democratic platform
which advocates treating the FiHpinos
precisely as we did the Cubans; and
also favor making the promise to them
now to take such action as soon as it
can prudently be done.
Alton B. Parker
1t is announced that Henry G. Davis
has decided to take the stump for an
active campaign and will deliver i'm
portant speeches in West Virginia and
in other states which the national
committee will designate. Mr.. Davis
will come to this city next week for a
conference with the national commit
tee, and then definite plans for his
speaking tour will be made.

KEMPF is ACCUSED
Gov. La Toilette Makes Charge
Against State Treasurer

MADISON, Wis, Aug. 24.-Gov. La
Toilette sent State Treasurer Kempf
a letter today giving his reasons in de-
tail for ordering the treasurer to fur
nish larger bond, and fixing II o'clock
Aug. 80 for the time within which it
must be furnished
The governor makes the sensational
charge that the state treasurer mas
made personal loans from various
banks which are state repositories
upon personal notes and amounting to
many thousands of dollars, and that
such loans were extended simply be-
cause Kempf was state treasurer, the
banks not refusing the loans through
fear that if they did the states money
would be withdrawn from them.
The governor says that the legisla-
ture should prohibit such practices. He
states that he is informed that tho
surety company which has furnished
the present bond of the treasurer has
refused to increase it to the amount de-
sired

BOAT is ENTIRELY
TOO MUCH SUBMARINE

NEWPORT, R. L, Aug. 24-While
the submarine torpedo Boat Shark was
being prepared for a submerged run
near Brentons Reef lightship, she sank
to the bottom in hundred feet of
water and remained there for some
time before the crew could move her.
The cause of the sinking is not known.
Lieut.. Nelson was in charge of the
boat with Lieut.. Shepley and a crew of
eight men aboard. The men displayed
no excitement, but made number of
experiments before the boat could be
raised. After forty minutes they sue

trating the stock troubles in one court
they will be greatly simplified.
