BL They also express the opinion that
the object of the recent edicts regarding
the degradation of the Chinese parsonage);
of high rank is merely to gain time to
enable China to be in a better position
to defy the powers, as the new capital
will be virtually inaccessible to foreign
ers. The Shanghai correspondent of tne
Morning Post, discussing this aspect of
the case, remarks:
"The German troops have no means or
transport, and any attempt to iollow the
-Chinese court would be, therefore, quite
futile."
He says that the Chinese flrmly believe
In the existence ot a Russo-Germ&n
agreement, under which Russia will take
all tHe territory north of the great wail
and Germany the Provinces of Chi Li and
Shan Tung.
The Times' representative at Shanghai
says:
"It is believed here that highly inflam
matory edicts are being issued secretly
and that the recent public edicts are only
intended to hoodwink the powers."

Touteey case was called today In the Cir
cuit Court, the list of witnesses that the
Sheriff of Breathitt County had failed J
to summon was called, but none answered
present, though the returns showed that
all had been summoned since Wednes
day. Mr. Crawford reported that the

on trial, and the Judge ordered the reg

GENERAL LAND OFFICE.
Commissioner Herman's Annnal Re
. -3?or J51ioTrs Bite Business Done.
I WASHINGTON, Oct. 5. The report of
the commissioner or tne uenerai oanu
Office, Just made public, shows a largo
increase in .the current work of the otnee
for the" past year, due, the Commissioner
.says, to the general stimulus given to
all the industries of the country for a
year past.
The total receipts of the Land
Office for the past year amount to $4,379,
75S, an increase over the previous year
of $1,303,621, and over the fiscal year 18$$
of $2,101,?63. There. Vas a proportionate
increase in the amount ot .land disposed
of, the total this year amounting to 15,
53,SS7 acres, an increase of 4,000,000 acres
over the, 'previous year. The homestead
entries for the year aggregated 8,458,480
aores, an Increase of 2,300,532 acres over
the previous year. There has been also
a large increase for the year in tho
number of final homestead entries made.
There has been a decrease In the num
ber of mineral land entries made during
the year, but this is to he accounted tor
largely by the number of suspensions,
notably in Colorado and Montana, under
late rulings made by the Secretary of the
Interior. While there has been a diminu
tion in the number of mineral land en
tries in general, there has bean-an ln-
l crease in the number of -patents issued
upon coal land entries.
Important work has been accomplished
In the forestry reservation. Two of, the
existing forest reserves, the Prescott re
serve in Arizona, and the Big Horn in
Wyoming, have been enlarged by 425 660
acres and 1,180,800 respectively, The Olym
pic forest reserve In Washington has been
reduced by 1,923,840. acres, in response to
the urgent requests of the representative
citizens and commercial bodies in that
state, on the ground that the refcerve
includes a great deal of valuable agri
cultural land which had been entered up
on by bona fide settlers. One new re
serve was created, that of Santa Xnez;
in Southern California, comprising 145,000
acres. The object of the reservation was
jnorewi me wasersnea, upon Which a
number of thriving communities depend
for their water supply.
Temporary withdrawals haye been made

ROCK RIVER CONFERENCE.
General Upsetting" of Methodist Tra
ditions. CHICAGO, Oct 5. Ministers and lay
men united in the upsetting of Methodist
traditions in the second day's session of
the Rock River Conference. Protest
against the reappointment of presiding
elders who have served' "out their six-year
terms was the burden of a dozen speech
es. The launching of a movement to ag
itate the question of lay representation
In annual conferences was the feature of
tho mass meeting of Jaymen.
The Rev. John M. Axtell, of Freeport,
led the assault upon the elders. To 300
ministers gathered to organize the Rock
River Pastors' Association, Dr. Axtell
declared that an oligarchy had no place
in the Methodist Church, and won appro
val In a great outburst of applause.
"Is one set of men to be presiding el
ders eternally?" he demanded. "We are
bound to protest against unfair treatment
I believe the time has come when the
pastors should have something to say
in the operation of the great machinery
of our church."
Dr. Axtell' s address was aoDlauded.
LA committee on resolutions appointed
by the Pastors' Association will repert
lateron the situation. Only one set of
resolutions had been handed to the com
mittee last night
"It reauests," Bishop Ninde said, "not
to arpolnt or reappoint any man to a pre

refused to accept a pastorate within six
years."

.WASHINGTON, Oc. 6. The British
Government .has followed in he 'footsteps
of the United States fn the Chinese ne
gotiations. It has authorized Sir Claude
MacDonald, the BriUsE Minister at Pekin,
to enter 'into relations with the Chinese
officials, just as our Governraent"Jhas"in

Minister discretionary powpr to- pass upon

at all, being unnecessary in the light of

Donald will be instructed to make the

of the Chinese ringleaders that have been

The latest French note Is a distinct

probable that exchanges will) take place
with the French" note asthe basis' whilo
the Ministers at Pekin are at work under
their instructions upon the subject of

Is not likely, in the judgment of officials
here, that all of the complex questions
Involved therein can be agreed upon by
the powers before Mr. Conger and tho
other Ministers are ready to report upon
their branch of the case.
Touchinsr tho Fjench proposals, the of

Trusts fprmed the subject of Mr, Bryan's
first speeches of tho day. but at Rich
mond Mt. Bryan devoted all his time to
imperialism. The presiding officer at the
Richmond meeting was Henry U. Johnson,
formerly a prominent member of Congress
and until recently a pronounced. Republi
can. Mr. Bryan said. that Imperialism 'is
not aF prophecy, but 'is history' and said
that we are taxing the Porto Rb'ans
without giving them representation.
"Tour own President," sald'Mr. Bryan,
"said It was 'our 'plain duty' to give free
trade to Porto -Rico and your own mem
ber of Congress (Mr. Watson) was op
posed io the Porto Rican hill until the
President-called him to the White House
and legged him tp vote for tho bill, and
asked him to do it not for the sake of

ask 'you if you are prepared, to surrender

Mr.' Bryan began his day's work at No
blesvllle, Ind. He arrived at 8 O'clock and
spoke to a large audience from a stand
near the depot for about 15 minutes. He
rapidly traced the Democratic position on
all the Issues of the campaign. He said
that if any Republican should .assort that
the money question Is more" lmp6rtant
than Imperialism, Democrats should reply
that Important as are the finances, they
wore only secondaryt'when compared with
the question of the, form of government.
He then took up the trust question and in
conclusion asserted that because of party
reasons tho Republicans dare not raise
their voices against that for which tho
party is responsible.
At Arcadia a 10-minute talk was made
to a fine audience.
At Tipton Mr. Bryan was Introduced by
W. J. Kern, candidate for Governor, as
the "next President." Mr. Bryan said
in response:
"I amyglad to be introduced to you by

ever may become of my chances in this
race, Ivdo not 'think' there ls much doubt
about Indiana. Mr. Kern only has In

Mr. Bryan discussed the trust question
and said that the Republicans gained
power" In-1896 by trust contributlonar
"The Republican party .needs more
money now than It did then," he said,,
"and It could not get it if it did not stand'
with the trusts."
Mr. Bryan also explained the difference
between expansion and Imperialism as it
appears to him. t . t
Elwood, was the next stop. ,The audi
ence covered an Immense vacant jlat of
ground near the railroad. Mr. Bryan
gave practically all Of the, 30 minutes al
loted tQ this place, to the trust question,
declaring that no employer had a 'right
to vote his men. He referred to ,the visit
of President McKlnley.to the. place when
tbo tinplate works were opened, saying.;
k "Oyiday jne RepuQiican parry, musi meer
Its record on the .trust question..on.the
Army question and on the cplaniajqua-
tion. Whenever an Institution is -opened,
the Republicans -make a great day of lt
and Invite distinguished people from
abroad .to be presentat rhe opening. But
when a trust closes a factory, they do
hot invite a Presldentror any one else to
preside-, at the closing. I find that tho
tinplate trust has closed the Independent
tinplate mills all over the country- Trusts
are organized to monopolize trade control
them and fix the price on products and.the
price of labor and are today destroying
industrial Independence and condemning
our.chlldren to perpetual clerkships under
monopoly. The Republican party'ls outrag
ing up an industrial despotism that com-
I pels millions of peopje to ,g"etpn 'their.
jrnees in the morning and pray to tne
trusts' "Give us this day our daily bread.'
I want to ask you whether you believe it
is a good system?" '" '
Mr. Bryan again referred to tha closing
down of a part of the t orks of the barbed
wire and nail trust unjil after the election,
(as he put It, and said:
"What does it mean"? 'It means Intimida
tion of the working man. It means that
the ''manufacturer;' when he has a mo
nopoly, will attempt to coerce his em
ployes." At Alexandria, another manufacturing
town, Mr. Bryan also attacked the trusts.
At Marlon, Mr. Bryan dealt with what
he characterized as the inconsistencies of
the Republican party. He declared that
party had made so many, turns in recent
yeara that there was very little left of the
old -party. Indeed, the Republican party
remlnded'hlm, Mr. Bryan -said, of a group
of athletes trained to turn Borhersaults In
concert when the leaders say "flop."
While Mr. Bryan was speaking at Ma
Tion, some one in the "audience asked In
regard to the anti-negro law. Mr, Bryan
said: f. . .
"My friend, 'I am glad that you asked
me that; I am prepared foryou. Now
I am going to assume that the Republi
can who asked the question Is an honest
man. I -am going toask him..about the
constitution of the Republican State of
Oregon. -I will read a provision of that
constitution.- It says: .
" 'Section 35 No free negro or mulatto,
not residing In this state at the time of the
adoption of this constitution, shall come,
rosido or he within this state, hold any
real estate or-make "any contract or main
tain any such therein and the Legislative
Assembly shall provide by penal laws for
the removal by public officers all such
negroes or mulattos or for their effectual
exclusion from the state and for the pun
ishment of" .persons who shall bring them
Into the state or employ or harbor them-'
"That amendment was adopted -before
the Civil War; it make3 it unlawful-for a
free negro to go Into the state and it
authorizes the officers to.puthim out 5 But
you 'say that -it .is olda Let me remind
you that last June an effort waajmade to
repeal that portion of tho constitution and
the effort to repeal It was defeated, al
though the state went Republican.".- -
Mr. Bryan then pointed to Porto Rico
and the Sultanate of Sulu, as he has done
in former speeches. . .
At Hartford City, Mr. Bryan found a
text for his remarks In come McKinley
posters " conspicuously displayed on a
dead wall In the distance- Referring to
these posters, Mr- Bryan said:
"I see over on the side of that barn a
bill or a poster, and all that I can make
out from here is that McKinley was
right. Now the question I want to ask
is which time was he right? You know,
my friends, a man, who is on both-slde3
of a question has a-great advantage over
the man who is on only one side. The
man who gets On both sides must be
right some time, but when, was Mr- Mc
Klpley right when he denounced Grover
Cleveland's financial policy' or when he
did, the same thing that Mr. Cleveland
did? Which time was he right in 1S9S,
when he said in his letter of acceptance
that we did not need more money, or this
year, when he boasted, in his letter ot
acceptance," that . we had more money,
and, therefore, ought to be glad. Was
he. right when he said lh his letter :of
is96.thaf he would keap'Tn circulation all
tha.sllver or when 'fie 'rgned the bill "to
retire the greenbacks and substitute a
NaUQnaln"firJofe?.;;' v - , ,
f'Was, ha right when,ln"hls 'Inaugural
adaposKie proms'e.d; loerif Orce 'the law
against the trusts, .or was he right when
he did not enforce the" law .against the
trusts whan he had promised to do s07
Was -he right, "-yhen he poln.tedput the
evils of- the trusts in his inaugural mes
sage, or was he. right when he appointed
an Attorney-General- from New jersey,
the home of trusts-,-and allowed him to
r.w his salarv without enforcing the
laws Intrusted to "his keeping? Was he
right when, he said In 1S97 that forc'ble
annexation was criminal aggression, and
conirary to our code of morality, or was
he rjght When he sent the 65.C00 soldiers
7000 miles away from home to force an
nexation upon an unwilling people? Was
he right when.he said last December that
jt was our 'plain duty' to give free tra'da
to Porto Rico, or was he right when he
asked the members of Congress to vote
againBt giving- free trade $0 Porto Rico?
I 'want you Republicans to take both
arguments made by your President, ,and
then see What argument you will accept."
There were three or fous tlme3 as many
people at Muncle as could hear the
speaker's voice, the crowd extending, in
some directions as much as two blocks.
The "Presidential candidate then devoted
his attention to the truits. Muncle is
the" home town of C.tF. W. Ueely, the
alleged embezzler of postal funds in
Cuba.
Mr. Bryan spoke to an enormous crowd
at the Falr.Groun'ds in Anderson tonight, k
and at the close of his address, re turned
to Indianapolis for the, night.

One grain of the active principle In Stu
art's Dyspepsia, Tablets will digest BOOO
grains of meat eggs or other wholesome"
food, and this claim haa been proven by
actual experiment which anyone can per
form for himself in the following manner:
Cut hard-boiled egg into very small pieces,
as It would be if masticated, place the egg '
and two or three of tha tablets In a bottle
or jar containing warm water heated, o
98 degrees (the -temperature of tho bodjJ),
and keep it at this temperature for three
and one-half hours, at the end of which
time the egg will bo as completely di
gested as It would havo been in tho
healthy stomach of a hungry boy.
- The . point of this experiment Is that
what Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do
to the egg in tha bottle It will do to tho
egg- or meat in the stomach, and nothing
else will rest and Invigorate the stomach
so. safely, and effectually. Even a little
child can take Stuart's Tablets
with safety and benefit if Its digestion to
weak and the thousands of cures accom-'
pllshed by their regular daily use are
easily explained when It Is understood
that they are composed of vegetable es
sences, aseptic pepsin, diastase- and Golden-Seal,
which mingles with tho food and
digest It thoroughly, "giving: the over
worked stomach a chance to recuperate.
Dieting never cures 'dyspepsia, neither
do pills and cathartic medicines, which
simply irritate and inflame tho Intestines.
When enough food Is eaten and prompt
ly digested thero will be no constipation,
nor, in fact, will there be disease of any
kind, because good digestion means good
health In every organ.
The merit and success of Stuart's-Dys-pepsia
Tablets are world-wide and they
are sold at the moderate price of GO cents
for full-sized package In every drug store
In the United States and Canada, as well
as Inr Europe.
For the information of those interested
a little book will be mailed free by ad
dressing F. A, Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich.,
giving briefly the' symptoms of. the various
forms of stomach weakness, causes and
cure.
