CRUISER GOING TO HAYTI.
The Des Moines Will Protect Ameri.
can Interests There.

Washington, JAM 22-Because of
the disturbed conditions in Hayti and
as guarantee for the protection of
American interests, it has been decid-
ed to dispatch the cruiser Des Moines
to that island with her headquarters
in the vicinity of the troubled section.
The gunboat Eagle, Captain Maxwell
commanding, now at st. Marc, will
look after the protection of these in
terests until the arrival of the cruiser,
when she will resume her survey
work around the coast
The immediate reason for the in
crease Of the naval force in Haytfan
waters was the receipt of a dispatch
from Captain MARVEL, which in addi-
ton to reporting the fact that st. Marc
had been retaken by the government
forces, added that number of build
1ngs had been burned and that the
property of an American had suffered.
The Des Moines will reach Port au
Prince about Feb. l. She is now on
her way from Boston to New York
and Will take aboard her regular sup
ply of ammunition at the latter place
and at Norfolk, Va, on her way to
Hayti. The Des Moines is in COM
mand OF Captain j. NJ Potts.

CONTEMPLATED SUICIDE.
Juror Palmer Did Not Want to Convict

juror who stood out so long for the

turn a verdict of guilty
This fact was stated in an affidavit
by G. J. Hendricks, local lawyer,
who recounts a conversation held by
him with Palmer.

technically guilty." is the statement
made by Palmer to the lawyer, accord

IMMIGRATION QUESTION.
Subject of Long and Interesting Do
bate in the House.

Washington, Jan. 21.-Unrestrained
opportunity to express views on the
immigration question was offered
members of the house by the de.
cision, soon after converting, to take
up and consider bill appropriating
$250,00o for an immigration station in
Philadelphia, and so many took adj
vantage of it that the code of laws
bill, which the managers of the house
had planned to take up, was side
tracked for the day.
The discussion of the immigration
station bill opened up the whole SUBJ
ject of immigration and excited the
interest of the entire house. Mem
bers from both sides of the chamber
clamored for recognition, which car
ried with it the right to speak for an
hour, If so desired. ..,s 81
The discussion served to develop
violent opposition, led by Mr.. Hep
burn and Mr.. Byrd, to certain classes
of immigrants coming to the United
States, while others made earnest
pleas for them upon the ground that
lilC VI luC SouItly lldu DSCu
advanced because OF their presence
in this country.
The debate was notable in that 1t
was INDUCED in largely by members
serving their first terms and who
found in the bill chance to make
their maiden efforts at speechmaking
on the floor Of the house.
The entire session was devoted to
a consideration of the bill, which was
passed.

WANT A FoUR.YEAR TERM
County Auditors Meet to Discuss the
Matters Of lntere st 70 Them.

Minneapolis, Jan. 22.-Four- year
terms for county auditors is the cry
raised by the auditors from all parts
of the state who gathered for their
annual convention yesterday. The
question was discussed freely at the
sessions in the county commissioners
rooms of the courthouse, and the aud
itors will strive for the long term.
The auditors feel they need as long
a term as the clerk of the courts.
They would also like to see the other
county offices on four-year terms.
The annual meeting this year is
largely attended, Special calls from
the secretary helped to bring out a
big delegation and nearly every coun-
ty in the state is represented.
Keen business matters were dis
cussed in connection with the operat-
ING of the offices of county auditors.
Suggestions were made for improve
ment of the detail of the work es-
pecially in connection with the col
lection of taxes, and the operation of
the work of the assessors.
This afternoon the most important
meeting will take place, when the
auditors will meet the state board of
tax levy for the purpose of confer
ring on the matter of taxation.

LETTER FROM CORTELYOU
Laid Before the Senate by Mr.. Aldrich
of Rhode island.

Washington, Jan. 21.-Just before
the senate adjourned for the day Sena-
tor Aldrich received a letter from
Secretary Cortelyou explaining the
delay in replying to the resolution
calling on him for information con-
corning the recent Panama canal
bond issue, and the letter was laid
before the senate. Earlier in the day
Senator Tillman INDUCED in caustic
comment upon what he characterized
as the secretary's apparent 'disObe-
dience' to senate resolution.
In his letter to Senator Aldrich, Mr.
Cortelyou said:
Il am sorry that there should have
been any misunderstanding as to the
time when my answer to the senate
resolution regarding the treasury
operations would be sent in. Had
been advised of your request to know
when it might be expected, ! would
have replied that l required a little
more time to go over the mass OF
figures it involves. 1t is my desire,
of course, that all business of this
kind shall he disposed of promptly,
but this matter is so important that
felt 1t desirable that every feature of
the report should be clearly stated,
both for the information of the senate
and in justice to the department. 1t
IS my desire and intention to submit
a complete response to the resolution
and l hope to have it ready in the
course of the next few days, in all
probability about the beginning Of
next week.
1.-The amount Of work involved in
the preparation of such voluminous
data may not be fully appreciated by
some, but it should be remembered
that the force in all the bureaus here,
which have to do intimately with
financial matters, have been for weeks
working overtime on the regular bust
ness of the department and to have
this duty put upon them in addition
materially increases their burdens"
The senate devoted over two hours
to consideration of the bill revising
the criminal laws of the United States.

KNEW OF ALLEGED PLOT.
Officials at Washington Had Been In
formed of Ii.

Washington, Jan. 21.-That the
American government was cognizant
of the existence of the belief of ul-
terror designs against Admiral Evans
battleships in the harbor of Rio ia
metro was admitted in administration
circles. The news first reached here
by way of Paris, where somebody
communicated it to the American en-
bassy. There the officials were quick
to send the news along to the state
department at Washington, which in
turn sent it forward to the American
embassy at Rio and also forwarded it
to the navy department. The intima-
lions contained were vague and indefi-
mite as to details, yet in view of the
great Importance of the matter and
the possibilities which might develop
were the officials on the scene not in.
formed, no time was lost in transmit.
ting it to Rio Janeiro. The data for
warded to Washington, it is under

of those persons who. it was alleged,
were engaged in the anarchistic plots,
but their names were not disclosed at

IN PARIS
'Rumors OF Plot to Blow Up
American Warships.
GOVERNMENT WAS INFORMED
Officials at Washington Were Apprlsed
of the Alleged Plan to Destroy Part
Of Evans Fleet-OnIy Few People
Take the Story Seriously.

Paris, Jan. 21-The reports cabled
from Rio Janeiro that the Brazilian
authorities were warned from Paris
of possible attempt to blow up the
American battleship feet while in the
harbor there are true.
Some time ago certain suspicious
indicating the existence of a plot to
destroy the whole or portion of the
fleet, either at Rio Janeiro or in the
Straits of Magellan, were aroused here
and naturally were communicated to
Rio and Washington. A chartered
steamer was reported to have, con-
yeyed explosives for the use of the
cOnspirators to Rio Janiero, arriving
there about the middle of December,
and John Fedher. whose name is men,
toned in the Rio dispatches, was one
of the men whose name was revealed
here as being implicated in the con-
spiracy. The alleged plot is supposed
to have some rather startling ramifi-
cations, but the evidence along this
line is far from conclusive and rests
chiefly upon the statement Of an indi-
Vidual whose record was subsequently
proved to be anything but creditable.
Consequently the whole affair is re-
garded with much skepticism and in
deed the presumption has been raised
that it may have been deliberately
concocted scare. In any event, 1t is
now believed here that if the plot
actually did exist the timely warning
and precautions taken have complete
ly frustrated the plans of the con-
spirators at Rio Janeiro and conf
PEELED them to transfer their opera
lions further south, if not to abandon
them entirely. The latter hypothesis
is considered here to be the most
probable.
Only few people here treated the
story seriously, others regarded it as
fantastic, while many dismissed the
whole affair as myth. The reports
received from Rio Janeiro have been
characterized as another weird chap
ter of the fantastic recital. 1t is be-
lieved here that the action of the Rio
Janeiro police grew out of the infor-
nation forwarded to Rio from Wash
ington and this city.
