.EXILED PRESIDENT
OF PERU IN CAPITAL
Agosto B. Leguia, Here to Talk to
Bryan, Tells Of Remedy for
"Cost of Living"
NO sUFFRAGISTS IN HIS COUNTRY

Agosto B. Leguia. the exiled president
of Peru, arrived in Washington last
night for a stay here OF several days.
He has been in the United States Tor
some time, and is paying this visit to
the Capital In order to make call upon
Secretary of State Bryan, whom ne
numbers among his personal friends,
and to become acquainted with the city.
While here he will be entertained in
formally, and probably will meet many
OF the high officials of the administra-
ton. Upon leaving the Capital, he plans
TO make a three weeks tour Of the
larger American cities, following which
he will sail with his family to Europe.
When seen last night at the Shore
ham Hotel, where he is stopping, the
former president said that he had made
no definite plans with regard to his stay
here. He said that he would call upon
Secretary Bryan at $50 o'clock this
morning, and that&he' would visit the
State and Agricultural Departments.
.Ie spoke of a reciprocity plan by which
beef from the great grazing plains of
Peru might be laid down In the Amer
ican markets at ten cents a pound, as
an offset to the spectre of one-dollar-a-
pound beef that is predicted by the Chi
cago packers. The Peru cattle, he said,
produce a high quality beef and Peru
could export this product in sufficient
quantities to the United States to bring
the meat element of the high cost Of
living down many points.
He expressed a full sympathy with
the Presidents Mexican policy. predict
ing that IL would be successful In the
end. and. further, that its success would
not be far distant. A peaceful solution
of t. present difficulties, he said. was
the most commendable one to seek.
In answer to the question as to the
progress that woman suffrage was max
ing Peru and other Latin-American
countries. he said that there was practi-
caIly no such movement in the southern
continent. Peru is one country, at least,
according to her former presidents state
ment. where women suffrage propagands
is a thing unknown.

TRIAL OF RED JACKET
CAN BE PURCHASED
Stanley's Great Historical Painting
Should Be Owned by the
United States.

To the Editor: AS Congress is still in
session. permit me through your infuen-
tial columns to call the attention OF its
members TO the opportunity once more of
securing for the nation the last and only
one of ]. NJ Stanley's great historical
paintings which still remains unsold,
1.-THE Trial of Red Jacket"
Persons familiar with the history OF
Stanley and his work will recall the de-
plorable loss this nation suffered, as well
as the artist himself, by the destruction
by fire of $50 Indian paintings when the
wing of the Smithsonian Institution was
burned January II, 1861.
These paintings were placed In the
Smithsonian gallery for the purpose of
being sold to the government, but the
appropriation had not been allowed, al
though several members OF Congress who
| were working for the measure were con-
| fdent it would have been put through
had not the collection been destroyed.
! Meantime, in 1863, Stanley removed
| from Washington, with his family, to De-
| troit Mich. where he opened a studio
and afterward lived. and where he paint
ed over $50 more canvases, nearly all OF
| which were Indian pictures. He died In
1872.
| In the artists own estimation, The
| Trial Of Red Jacket was his best effort.
Out of the vast number IT is the last and
only one which remains unsold.
The picture is six feet high and nine
| feet in width, and contains nearly 100
figures At present il hangs in the art
gallery OF the Buffalo Historical Society,"
| and there is a movement already under
way to have il bought by popular sub
scription for that institution.
| Albany also has wanted to secure the
picture for the State Capitol building. but
| Albany expects to get An appropriation
! through the influence of certain Assem-
blymen during the coming winter and
thereby get the picture without effort
| Now. neither of these cities should be
| permitted to secure this rare and valu-
| able prize. Most of the tribes which
| Stanley painted have become extinct He
was the greatest painter of Indian char
acter that ever lived. while the subject
of this remaining canvas. The Trial OF
Red Jacket" is priceless because OF its
historical value
| 1t was Mrs. Stanleys wish that, unless
| the picture were sold for $4,000, II should
| always remain in the family. She died
in 1891. The heirs have finally decided
that the picture should go in some public
gallery and have offered it for that pur'
pose only, for $4,000.
This is a mere trifie for the govern
ment to pay, and it will be fitting close
10 the present extra session of Congress!
for some member. either from Michigan
or New York, to secure the appropria
tion needed and place this great histori
cal masterpiece in the National Gallery
of Art, where il belongs.
There should be neither difficulty mol
delay in a matter of so vital interest.

BLOW IS Dealt At
"ARMOR PLATE TRUST
Contract for Steel Bolts for Battle
ship Awarded to the Carbon
Company.
SAVING OF 500 ON EACH TON

Another blow at the so-called "Armor
Plate Trust" was dealt by Secretary Of
the Navy Daniels yesterday in his award
of the contract for sixty-one tons OF
steel bolts to be used in the construc-
tion OF battleship No. 80. to the Carbon
Steel Company. The price was $44S ton
II has been the custom heretofore at
the Navy Department to give the con-
tract for furnishing the bolts to the sue
cessful bidder for the armor-plate con-
tract. This year, however. Secretary
Daniels had the Midvale. Bethlehem. and
Carnegie steel companies bid on the
bolts separately. Each company sub
mitted a price OF $54s ton. or 500 more
than the figure named by the Carbon
Steel Company. Secretary Daniels con-
siders that the armor-plate makers have
been arbitrarily fixing their prices on
bolts under the old practice. and is de-
termined to break up the combination,
as he regards IL, and compel competition
and reasonable prices.
To the same end and for similar rea-
sons he has given to the New York Navy
Yard the contract for making two tons
of bronze bolts. the figure named by the
three companies being. so much higher
that a saving OF $500 will be made by the
change
Secretary Daniels visited the plant OF
the Carbon Steel Company in Pittsburgh
Thursday and was quite pleased at what
he saw there. He has already given
them some armor-plate work.

Toad. aud the BOIL wreviI.

Prom the yicksburg Miss Post.
TIL lowly and somewhat loathsome toad
frog is the deadliest enemy of the Mexi-
can boil weevil, according to Marshal
Montgomery, prominent planter of Sun
flower County. So confident is his belief
that the toad frog is natures remedy for
the annihilation of the greatest of all
cotton crop pests that Mr.. Montgomery
has established a toad frog farm in con-
nection with his plantation, and next
year he hopes to be able to supply other
delta planters with toads in sufficient
quantities to combat the weevil. EN-
periments recently on the Montgomery
plantation show that an ordinary toad
will capture and consume more than
two hundred boil weevils in a single day,
which is more than the most lynx
eyed negro engaged in picking the in
sects from cotton plants is able to find
within the same period. The toad
does not confine his operations to the
lower branches of the cotton plant. He
will leap nimbly to the topmast branches
of the talIest cotton grown in the delta,
some of which is higher than a mans
head on horseback, in quest of the pesti-
ferrous insects. Thus 1t appears that the
plague that pestered Pharaoh in the land
of Egypt may become the salvation OF
the South in the cultivation of its great
est crop.
