The Mississippi River Continues to

An Oakland Ulrl Overpowers a Bobber
The Tjulon Pacific and Oregan Short
Line to Combine Forj
Trafllc.
Tokledo, April 2. Farmers are try
in to form a trust-: . It is to spread all
over the land, and if nresent plans
carry. Dot a dollar's worth of farm pro
duce of any kind will bo sold for general
consumption. In a nutshell, the idea
is for the farmers to limit their crops
to the actual living; needs of the mem'
bers of the trust. The organization is
secret, oathbound, and its principles
known just now to only a select few
outside of those directly concerned in
its development. According to tne
promoters, however, the country is
practically in condition to be placed in
the grip of this remarkable combine.
Lancaster, Pa., was the birthplace of
the trust. It saw light there several
months ago, and was incorporated un
der the laws of New Jersey as the
Agriculturalists' National Protective
Association. The supreme body is
made up of one representative from
each state, whose duties are similar to
those of the board of directors of an
ordinary corporation. Each state has
a. subordinate board of directors, con
sisting of one representative from each
congressional district. Each district
in turn is governed by a board of two
members from each county. Each
county is under control of a board of
from Eve to II in number, who direct
the movements of township organiza
tions. It is the purpose to do nothing this
year in the way of controlling the mar
kets, because the organization is not
complete. Next year, however, the
crops will be limited to actual living
needs of members.
If the plan is carried out. not a
dollar's worth.of farm product of any
kind will be sold for general consump
tion, it being the purpose to compel
the people to import all food products.
It is believed that by this method the
power of the association can best make
itself felt.
Manv cases of "grippe'' have lately
been cured by One Minute Cough Cure.
This preparation seems especially
adapted to the cure of this disease. It
acts quiokly, .thus prevention serious

HIGHEST IN MANY YEARS.
Mississippi Biver at St. Paul Registers
Sixteen Feet.
St. Paul, April 2. The Mississippi
river has reached 16 feet and is still
rising slowly. This is the highest
point reached since the great flood cf
1881. The residents of the flats have
had ample warning to save themselves
and their property. Between Minne
apolis and St. Paul 1000 families have
been made homeless. They lived along
the riverside and in tho lowlands.
Families that lived to the left of Inter
urban bridge at Minneapolis have been
driven out and a vast body -of water
rushes over the spot where their homes
used to be. It has swept away many
houses.
On the west side the water is en
croaching on the Robert-street bridge.
Only two streets .in the flats are free
from water, and those only for three
squares. The water is coming up, and
gradually submerging all the lowlands.
Already 2C0 homes over there are under
water, and more disappear with each
succeeding pour.
Looking from the pier of old Broad
way bridge toward the south, the west
side looks like an immense lake, with
a housetop sticking above the surface
here and there. Many of the resi
dences further down re covered, and
the lake is floating full of all sorts of
household goods, fences, barn roofs
trees and lumber of all descriptions.

THE FIGHT AT AKBOTIBI.
Showed the Necessity For Disarming the
Moslems.
London, April 4. The News' Canea
correspondent will say:
The Moslems advanced to within 200
yards of the Christians at Akrotiri, on
Saturday, and began . to parlay with
the leaders. Then suddenly along
both the Moslem and Christian lines
an almost simultaneous discharge oc
curred. The range was very short,
and the rattle of musketry developed
into a regular roar. At first, the in
surgents had the advantage, driving
the Moslem irregulars down the hill,
but the latter rallied, and, after a
fierce charge, drove the Christians
backward from their most advanced
point, where they planted a Turkish
flag, which is still floating. The fight
ing was stopped by a heavy rain.
When the Moslems returned to
Canea, the order had been given to
disarm them. At first they resisted,
but soon those who were disarmed
warned their comrades outside, so that
many of them hid their arms. Several
hundred rifles still remain to be col
lected. The disarming of the irreg
ular Moslems oupht to have been done
long ago, for the Moslems were begin
ning to think that Europe bad sent
the European forces simply to support
them against the Christians.
Thejonly regretable thing is that
the men-of-war did not shell the Mos
lems when they attacked the Chris
tians, just as they have been shelling

Chicago, April 3. The Times'Her
ald's Washington special says:
Secretary Sherman is protesting
against the execution of General Ruiz
Rivera, the Cuban leader, recently
captured by the Spanish. Presiden
McKinley and Secretary Sherman dis'
cussed the case, and the latter, at the
president's suggestion, communicated
with Senor de Lome, the Spanish min
ister, giviner him to understand the ex
ecution of Rivera would raise such in
dignation throughout the United States
I as toembarrass the government. Senor
de Lome communicated the substance
of this informal protest to his govern
ment, and there are reasons for be
lieving the Spanish authorities will
cable orders to Havana which will save
Rivera's life.

Chicago, April 2. In the business
district today a messenger employed
by the wholesale woolen firm of Kuh,
Nathan & Fisher was robbed of $3500
after being beaten into" insensibility
by two men, one of whom had been
sent with the boy to protect him and
the firm's money. The messenger is
at the point of death. He is Adolph
Schulz, 18 years old. One of the rob
bers was Edward Wilson, employed by
the firm as a teamster.
Schulz and Wilson have been in the
employ of Kuh, Nathan & Fisher for
several years, and were always sent to
the bank together, 'sometimes with
thousands of dollars.

Act of a Plucky Girl.
Oakland, April 2. Miss M. Mor
gan, a high school student, is conceded
to be one of the pluckiest eirls in this
city, for on Saturday night last she
chased and overtook a tramp who had
robbed her, and wrested from him
some $13 in cash snatched from her
grasp but a few moments before. Miss
Morgan had just received change for
$20 piece from a messenger boy, when
the tramp, who had evidently followed
him, knocked at the door of the house
and asked for alms. Seeing the money
iu Miss Morgan's band, ho grabbed it
and made off; but she promptly gave
chase, and recovered her property after
a brief struggle.

Memphis, April 4. Another disas
trous break in the-Mississippi levee oc
curred this morning at 8 o clock at
Flour lake, six miles below Tunica,
Miss. The crevasse is fully 15 feet
deep and the water i3 pouring through
the opening with fearful velocity. This
will probably be the most destructive
break that has occurred in the delta.
The most fertile farm lands of Missis
sippi lying in Coahoma, Flore, Quit
man and Tallahatchie counties, in the
northern part of the state, will be in
undated and the newly-planted corn
crops will be laid waste. Fortunately
no loss of life is reported, the inhabit
ants of the stricken section having
made preparations for just such a
catastrophe as ovists.
The condition of the poorer classes
throughout the flooded area is indeed
critical tonight. Thousands of refugees
are being huddled on the levees and
spots of dry land waiting for relief.
The towns of Rosedale and Tunica re
port that everything is being done for
these poor people, but that funds and
provisions are fast becoming ex
hausted. In the little city of Rosedale
alone 1200 refugees are being cared for
by the citizens. Half a hundred towns
tonight stand in six feet of water and
the stream is creeping up slowly but
surely. f
Advices just recoived tell of a break
two miles south of Helena, Ark. This
is the levee for which the people of
Southeastern Arkansas have made
such a desperate fight. The waters
from this break will flood a great area
and in all probability will back up
nto the streets of Helena.
The relief steamer Lee arrived at
Marian na, Ark., late this afternoon

way down stream, rescuing people from
perilous positions.
TO HECK. ON SHORT LINE.
Tlw Westbound Passenger Train Hitched
With ratal Results.
Salt Lake, April 3. The west
bound through passenger train on the
Oregon Short Line was ditched near
Malad, Idaho, at 10 o'clock this morn
ing.' The engine and the first four
cars passed over the switch safely, but
the fifth car, a tourist sleeper, a pas
senger coach and two Pullman sleep
ers were completely overturned and
demolished with fatal results. P. Ken
nedy, of Kansas City, was killed, and
the following injured seriously:
Alice C. Strahn, of Dayton, Wash.,
leg and ankle crushed and back injured.
David M. Cartwell, of Haines, Or.,
right shoulder and legs badly crushed.
W. A. Cartwell, of Haines, Or.. right

right ankle broken, left leg bruised,
arm scalded and face cut.
J. A. Williams, an extra brakeman,

Eighteen others were slightly in"
jured.
The accident was caused. by a broken
switch-frog. It is believed that tramps
had tampered with the switch shortly
before the train passed.
The damage to the railroad was
about $4000 not including a coach of
the Oregon Railroad & Navigation
Company which was entirely destroyed
HE MAY NOT BE SHOT.
Orders Have Come From Madrid to Spare
. Rivera.
New York, April 5. A World Ha
vana special says:
The belief is that Rivera will not be
shot. A.n order is said to have come
from Madrid to spare his life. This is
not prompted from motives of hu
manity, but to make a good impression
upon the United States and other
nations. General Weyler is furious, it
is reported, and may cause the order
to be withdrawn, in which case General
Rivera would be put to death.
A World courier brings a. report
from the Insurgents that Oenerai
Riverahad received orders from Gomez
to turn over hia command to General
Roloff and he was about to report to
Gomez for other duty when he was
captured. That his capture was brought
about by treason is still suspected, but
Senor Jorrin is no longer accused. The
traitor is thought to have been a petty
officer under General Rivera.
Weyler is evidently more anxious to
kill time than the rebels. A World
courier reports that the captain-general
remained aboard the steamer off Sagua
la Grande from March 22 to March 26,
during which time nobody was al
lowed to see him. Then he wasted two
days more ashore seeing no one. Gen
eral Weyler now is in Cienfuegos,
another comfortable city. There he
has discovered great corruption in
furnishing army supplies for paper
money. He has imprisoned leading
men and the chief of police and has re
moved the governor.
It is reliably stated that General
Weyler Is seeing at Cienfuegos and
communicating with Cubans who are
plotting to get General Gomez in a
trap. General Gomez remains at Ar
royo Blanco, camping either at Santa
Teresa, Juan Criello, La Reforma or
Las Barracones. He stays . west of
Juacaro Moron trocha, but can pass it
with Impunity. A family just crossed
it, cut down the wire and saw no
soldiers.
Word from Santiago province shows
that General Garcia is gaining victory
after victory. He has absolute con-
trol of the province outside of the big
towns.
The rebel covernraent two weeks
ago was atBlanquizala, two miles from
Manzanillo, on the coast.

This is done by General Weyler's
orders.
MOSLEMS ARB FAVORED.
Foreign Admirals Passively Watch Them
Attack the Christians.
New York, April 5. A Journal
special from Canea says;
In the engagement at Akrotiri seven
Christian insurgants were killed and
18 wounded. The Moslem irregulars
cut up the Christian dead in a horrible
manner. They are now exhibiting
human ears and noses and all this was
allowed to go on while the admirals,
spyglass in hand, watched the progress
of events. On the Moslem side there
were 60 killed and wounded. Among
these were many of the Moslems from
Kandandas, who were rescued from the
insurgents by the admirals, who
promised that they would not be al
lowed to bear arms against Christians
again.
During the engagement yesterday
not a shell was fired against the Mos
lem irregulars, although they were at
tacking the Christians in direct op
position to the orders of tho admirals.
The insurgents under similar circum
stances have been shelled by the allied
fleets. The admirals say they had
loaded cannon and were ready to fire
on the Moslems, when they saw Major
Bor among the irregulars, trying to
stop them, and that they were conse
quently afraid to fire. Tho fact re
mains nevertheless that these armed
Moslems were allowed to go out of the
town followed by 2000 unarmed men,
loaded with baskets in which to bring
back plunder. -
CUBA IN THIS SEllATE.
Government Called Upon to Stop Spanish
Atrocities."-'
Washington, April 5. Tho senate
today indulged in some bantering of
Chandler , of New Hampshire, who
introduced a bill "abolishing comple
tion in trade and production and
authorising combinations to enable
merchants, manufacturers and pro
ducers of commodities subject to in
terstate commerce to maintain prices
and profits notwithstanding the
business depression." Allen said
nothing like this bill had been seen in
the palmiest days of the populists.
Chandler announced his serious Inten
tion to press the bill as an amendment
to the railroad pooling bill in case that
measure was brought forward.
The Cuban question was then debated
the Allen's resolution protesting
against the trial of General Rivera by
drumhead court-martial, forming the
basis of the debate. Allen made an em
phatic speech calling on the United
states as a Christian nation to Btop the
Spanish savagery and outrages.
Hoar, or Massachusetts, opposed tne
resolution, and favored a calm and de
liberate course.
Senator Gallinerer, of New Hamp
shire, made a very vehement speech in
favor of Cuba. He said he and every
other senator, he believed, were get
ting letters denouncing them for their
position on Cuba. They came, he
added from the money-changers of the
East.
A motion to refer the Rivera Cuban
resolution to the committee on foreign
relations was defeated. The resolution
was adopted, 44 to 0.

Republicans Lost Heavily In the Municipal
Elections Yesterday.
Throughout Michigan and Ohio yes
terday elections were held in the prin
cipal cities, and in almost every in
stance the republicans suffered heavy
losses. Michigan voted for a supreme
court justice and two regents of the
university of Michigan, and all three
of the successful candidates were re
publicans, though .their majorities
were light. Long, for supreme judge,
carried the state by about 20,000,
whereas McKinley 's plurality in the
state last fall was 58,000. Pelasky,
Muskegan, Lansing, Benton Harbor,
Bay City and Lansing elected repub
lican mayors, but by recuced major
ities as compared with the November
vote. In Battle Creek, Manstee and
Jackson the silver ticket was success
ful.
In Ohio the republican loss was very
heavy. The dispatches say the result
gives the democrats control of most
of the machinery for the election
next November of state officers and
members of the legislature. Governor
Bushnell will stand for a second term.
Senator M. A. Hanna is the republican
candidate for senator, and John R.
McLean the free-silver candidate for
senator.
Gustav Fafall was elected mayor of
Cincinnati by 7220 plurality. Tho city
gave McKinley 20,000 majority last
fall. Cleveland went republican by
1000, a falling off of the republican
vote of about 2700. Canton (McKin
ley's borne) Springfield, Akron, Co
lumbus, Zansville, Hamilton and Ports
mouth all elected democratic mayors,
while the republicans carried Iron ton,
Toledo and Steubenvllle. McKinley
carried all these cities last fall.

POWERFUL WAVES.
Tha Effect of a Gale Over the Great Bait
Lake.
A correspondent of the Youth's Com
panion recently witnessed a most con
vincing proof of the weight of salt
laden waters of the Great Salt lake.
A strong gale of wind ' was blowing .
over the lake and driving its surface
into low, white-capped ridges, while
along the shore the foam lay like flat
banks of new-fallen snow. If it had
passed across a lake of fresh water of
equal extent that wind would unques
tionably have produced such an agita
tion of its surface that navigation in .
small boats would have been difficult
if not highly perilous.
But the waters of the Great Salt
lake, although driven into ridges as
just remarked, showed a curious re
sistance to the wind and the waves,
rising to only a slight elevation, moved
along with an appearance of lethargy
that the eye could not but notice.
Yet there was an immense momen
tum stored up in those low, heavy.
slow-moving waves. Venturing into
the water at a point where the depth
did not exceed four feet the observer
found that it was impossible to stand
against them. Their sheer weight
swept him resistlessly along.
ine curious buoyance of the water.
containing twenty-two per cent, of
salt in solution, increased the helpless
ness of the bather. He was not sub
merged, as . sometimes occurs in the
Atlantic breakers, but was lifted and
carried like a cork.
It would probably have been impos
sible to dive through an oncoming
wave after the manner practiced by
bathers along the Atlantic coast In
the Great Salt lake people are not
drowned through sinking, but stran
gled while still afloat. The bitter
water may enter the air passages with
fatal effect, but the body continues to
float until it reaches the shore or is
picked up.

It Was Afalnst Orders to Shoot, So He
Balded the Soldiers' Camp Nightly.
"When I was in Yellowstone Park
this summer," said a Wyoming Valley
man, "one of the gamekeepers told me
about a bear that worried a camp of
government soldiers almost to despera

a bear waddled into camp, ripped open,
a tent, put the soldiers to flight, got
The next night the bear came aronnd
again, smashed down a tent and 6tolem
smoked ham. Under the park rules
the soldiers were prohibited from fir
ing at the thievish brute, as well ai
from jabbing a bayonet into him, and
the only thing they could do when the
bear appeared and went to helping
himself to rations was to get out of his
way. Night after night the bold beast
made a raid on the camp and ruined a
tent or two. My informant said that
the bear acted as if he knew that the .
6oldiers daren't fire at him, and that
on each visit he became more saucy
and destructive than before. When
the bear's raids had become unbeara
ble the commandant sent the facts to
the secretary of the interior and asked
what to do. Word came back to shoot
the bear, and that night, when brain
strode boldly into camp, the soldiers
put an end to his career by riddling
him with bullets." .
