NEW PREMIER's STATEMENT.
Says it is the Purpose of the Gar to
Work With Parliament.

st. observation-disclosures Goremy-
kin has, through his chief lieutenant,
M. Schwanebach, sent the following
message to the United States, and to
the world generally:
His majesty, the emperor, and the
premier, M. Goremykin, have the full,
honorable intention of carrying
through the idea of national represen-
tation with all it implies. There is no
intention of dissolving parliament.
Naturally, unforeseen circumstances
may arise, as in any government,
which might force such an unhappy
event. But we do not anticipate such
misfortune, as the majority of the
members of parliament are lovers of
their country and we do not believe
that they are DESTROYS of forcing a
conflict.
"The governments purpose will be
to work with parliament"

Washington, Sept. 8-A dispatch

Friday from Mr.. Grummere, American

formation that Paul o. Stensland, the
president of the Milwaukee Avenue
State bank of Chicago, was turned
over Friday to Managing Editor
Kelley of the Chicago Tribune and
Assistant States Attorney Olson Of
Illinois, who apprehended the fugitive
banker at Tangier. While the dis
patch does not say so, the presumption
Is that Stensland will remain In con-
finement at the American legation at
Tangier until arrangements have been
perfected for his removal to the
United States.
Messrs. Kelley and Olson will be
held responsible henceforth for the
safeguarding Of the prisoner. They
will be permitted to make their own
arrangements for the return of Stems
land and 1t is said they have under
consideration a merchant vessel, the
name of which has not been divulged.
The naval refrigerating ship Glacier,
now en- route home from Manila, is the
only government vessel that will be
available for many weeks and she will
not reach Tangier for at least three
weeks.

A fashionable wedding in which
Miss SOssie DE Fine Blauw and Count
Robert Douglas, son of the former
foreign minister Of Sweden, Count L.
Douglas, were the contracting parties,
was held at Ordrup, Aug. IL. The
marriage ceremony took place In the
Ororup church and was attended by
many of the noble families of Den
mark and Sweden. The bride Is a
creole who became acquainted with
the count in Egypt. After the cere-

for the young couple at her villa,
which was attended by 200 guests.

MAD DOG SCARE
HecIa Again Excited Radical
Measures Necessary

A COW belonging to G. HI. Lamport,
which must have been bitten by the
mad dog running through the country
recently, went mad yesterday. The
first symptoms of the disease were
noticed by the family of Mr.. Barton,
who lives on the place, when the COW
was seen to have been chasing every
thing on the place and bunting and
tearing around in its mad fits. Mr..
Lamport drove out to the farm and
killed the animal yesterday, and no
tlced the place we're 1t was bit, not
knowing this before. 1t is possible
that a great many head of stock have
been bitten through the country
which is not known of. A notice was
published last week requesting every
one in the limits Of Hecla to keep
their dogs shut up, but we notice that
it did not take veIy much effect, as a
number Of dogs r still running at
large. It is the duty of the town
board to see that this restriction is
lived up to, regardless of what a few
cranks on the subject may think.
They have the law on their side and
can enforce it to the letter. Now,
then, we do not believe that it is poll
cy to allow dogs to run atlarge during
the present conditions, and we want
to ask what is the best dog on earth
to compare with a child and who Is
helpless in a case like this, who might
get bit. at any time. There are little
children running around the streets
every day not more than four years of
age and up, who would not know ii a
dog was In this state or not and would
be just as liable to step up and pet
the animal as to look at him. Why
not keep your dogs shut up or put a
muzzle on them?-Hecla Standard.

When Commodore e. c. Benedict,
friend of former President Grover
Cleveland, summed up at a banquet
the other evening his o. Union of the
trend of present national legislation,
he struck a responsive chord here.
The commodore said:
IF this country were administered
on business principles, without regard
to politics, we would soon own or con-
troll everything in the world that is
worth controlling. How much
longer shall we be content to be the
smartest race of darn fools that ever
existed"
The Washington Post affects to see
in this vigorous diatribe of Commo.
dore Benedict, a direct application to
the subject of rate legislation. In an
editorial, entitled 1.-TWO Rate Bills, :
the paper says:
Senator Morgan's rate bill deserves
the most serions consideration. 1t re.
stores the supremacy of the common
law and confirms the principle of trial
by jury. 1t also has the merit of con-
stitutionality, unquestioned constitu-
tlonality, and it is plain and simple
measure that the ordinary mind can
understand.
Senator Culberson's bill is radical
in the extreme. 1t not only confers
on the interstate commerce commits:
sion the authority to change a rate oi
which it shall disapprove, but upon ap-
peal on the ground that the rate So
fixed is c~onffscatory, no consideration
shall be given to overcapital stock,
but the court shall only consider the
actual value of the load. The appeal
is to a court Of equity of the United
States. -

would put 1t In the power Of the
