Belgian Not British People

In an interview with Mr. E D. Morel on
the Congo memorial, printed In The Star
yesterday, he was made to say:
The course pursued by King Leopold is
obvious. He wishes the American public
to think that the British government and
the British people are arraigned. when as
a matter of fact it is he personally who is
arraigned."
What he intended to convey was that,
He (king Leopold) wishes the American
public to think that the Belgian govern
ment and the Belgian people are arraigned,
when a matter of fact it Is Leopold
personally who Is arraigned."

AGREE ON STATEHOOD.
There Are To Be Two States From -Four
Territories.

Washington, Jan. IS. A definite
program as to statehood legislation at
the present session of congress has
been outlined, and an agreement has
been reached providing for the admis-
sion of Oklahoma and Indian Territory
substantially under the terms of the
bill introduced by Senator Quay. An
other bill will be introduced in the
course of few days providing for the
admission jointly of Arizona and New
Mexico as one state.
The Oklahoma bill will be actively
pushed to its passage under the leader
ship of Senator Quay. In the last con-
gress any form of statehood legislation
was bitterly fought by Senator Bev-
eridge, chairman of the committee on
territories, who is now in the combine
for joint statehood. His leading sup
porters were Senators Hale and Platt,
of Connecticut, who were at the head
of a combination of New England and
Eastern senators who met daily and
were bitterly arrayed against state
hood. They are also in the combine,
and with them are Senators Aldrich
and Allison, practically uniting all the
republicans in behalf of the Quay bill.
Among the chief points of interest in
the Quay bill are the provisions that
at least one of the United States sena-
tors representing the new state shall
be of Indian descent and that it shall
be represented in the lower house by
six representatives.

ARMOUR CORNERS WHEAT.
Situation OF Price OF Wheat Is HIshIy
Artificial,

Chicago, Jan. 23.-May wheat touched
a new high mark-92% @92c4 Wed
nesday, net gain for the day of axe,
and &c higher than the average price
last fall. The local wheat situation as
regards prices is highly artificial. as is
shown by the character of the trade,
which caused SO sharp gain in prices.
Armour is credited with long line of
of 100000 bushels, contracted for
May delivery. Local contract stocks
approximate only 100000 bushels.
This comparison stirred the shorts to
more activity, but the best they could
do for the most part, was to shift the
burden among themselves. Nothing
that looked like Armour selling could
be discovered. On the other hand,
considerable commission house buying
was credited to the paramount inter
est. Corn and oats were in process of
concentration also.

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 25.-The gorges

tenths of foot per hour; the Ohio at

oughfares are impossible. One river
man estimates the losses from ice and

residents at a million dollars.

it higher.

RIOTERS THREW ACID
Fifteen Bottles OF suIphurio Acid Were
Found There.
ONE WOULD KILL EIGHT MEN.
The Union Pacific Mon Saw The Bot
ties Thrown. None of Them Bur.ted.
Detectives Are Finding Men Respon-
sibls For The Riot

Kansas City, Kas., Jan. 21.-The de-
tectives from this city discovered
evidence, the investigation of which
they believe will lead to the unearth-
ing of plot on the part of union
bridge builders last Monday evening to
infiict serious injury on all men en-
ployed by the Union Pacific Railway
Company on its bridge in Kansas City,
Kansas, where pitched battle was
fought, during which four men were
seriously injured. The evidence which
the detectives think so conclusive con-
sists of fifteen bottles of sulphuric
acid, which were found at the scene of
the conflict.
Several of the Union Pacific men
told Chief of Detectives Wilson that
they saw the bottles thrown by the
union army but did not realize the
danger at the time. One man, S. B.
wilson, says he caught one of the bot
ties in his arms, but that it did not
break. The bottles were quart size
and each, according to physicians, con-
tanning enough acid to kill six men,
had the bottles burst ON their clothing
Chief Of Police Murray says that he
will use every effort to secure the ar
rest Of the guilty persons.
Foreman Baldwin, of the bridge
weak, has had his men commissioned
as special officers and armed them with
revolvers, He also had the construc-
ton cars upon which they are con-
veyed from the bridge to the boarding
cars at Armstrong station well barri-
caded on both sides in order to give
the men a defense should they be fired
upon.
The entire force of city detectives
were at the bridge at quitting time
with instructions to prevent a rcpeti-
ton of the battle though they were
compelled. to use their revolvers.
None of the Union Pacific's men in
jured is considered in a serious condi-
ton. The union men, who are thought
to have been shot, have not been loca-
ted. The detectives say they are con-
fident that they have found at least
four of the men who were responsible
for the riot, and it is probable that
several arrests will be made in short
time. The Kansas City, Kas., officers
believe that the majority of the union
men who led in the riot live in Kansas
