Sonor Mor.t, the Mlulster for the Cot'

of Autonomy to Cnba— Seuor
Sagasta Visits General
Woodford at the Amtr
Iran Legation.
Madrid, Oct 6.— Senor Moret, the
minister fcr the colonies, It is semi-
officially announced, has decided to
apply as soon as possible all the meas-
ures which are comprised in the pro-
gram of the Liberals, regarding the
Antilles, including all that is neces-
sary for the application of autonomy
for Cuba in the form permitted by the
circumstanoes.
Captain General W'eyler has written
an official letter to General Azcarraga,
forwarded before the resignation of
the Azcarraga cabinet, in the course
of which he declares that the condi-
tion of Cuba has "improved to a re-
markable degree" since the date when
he assumed control in the Island. The
captain general says: "The country
has received a fresh lease of life."
lie asserts that the Spanish general
commanding in the eastern provinces
reports an uninterrupted service of
trains on all the railroads. The let-
ter, which is generally commented up-
on, alleges that the Spanish army In
Cnba is "beiug maintained in excel-
lent state despite the fact that the
pay is six months in arrears.
Senor Sagasta, the premier, was the
first visitor at the United States lega-
tion yesterday morning. Ilis inter-
view with General Woodford was cor-
dial, but absolute reservo is main-
tained as to what passed in the conver-
sation.
OMAHA STOCK YARDS
ate ICujolnad From Enforcing the
Kate of the New Law.
Lincoln, Neb.,Oct. fl.—Federal Judge
Munger yesterday rendered nn opin-
ion granting a temporary injunction in
the case of the South Omaha Stock
Yards Company against the state of
Nebraska. The decision is in many
respects, exactly opposite to that ren-
dered by Judge Foster at Topeka in a
similar case, involving the Kansas
City 6tock yards.
The plaintiff, Greenlief W. Simpson,
whois an Eastern stockholder of the
company, seeks to prevent the direc-
tors from putting into effect the
charges made for caring for stock, as
provided for in an act passed by the
last legislature.
SUPERB PAGEANT.
Kansas City Priests of Pallas Open the
Antumi Carnival
Kansas City, Ma, Oct. <1—Pallas
Athene rode through the Btreets of
Kansas City last night at the head of
what was universally conceded to have
been the finest parade ever presented
by the Priests of Pallas. It was seen
by more people than ever before, and
in every respect it was the most suc-
cessful parade yet given.
The subject chosen, "Hans Christian
Andersen s Fairy Tales," was not only
susceptible to artistic treatment in the
highest degree, but it was a subject
which appealed to popular fancy. It
Is estimated that 300,000 people wit-
nessed the parade.
LETTER FROM GOMEk.
The Cuban General Write* Bucourug«
ln*ly of the Situation.
Nrw York. Oct U.—Thomas Estrada
Pal ma, chief of the Cuban junta, hat
received a letter from General Gomez,
commander-in-chief of the Cuban
army, in which he said: "Weyler's
successor in Cuba, in order to cope
with the rebellion at its present
standing, will be obliged to demand
?0i),000 troops, and 8100 000,000,
and even then he will fall
as ignominously as Weyler has
failed. Our men were never imbued
with a more hopeful spirit than they
are at present The campaign in Las
Villas has been an utter failure. The
8panlsh soldiers avoided us at every
opportunity. This served to encour-
age our men. I am glad to say that
we are all confident of ultimate suc-
cess. If Weyler bo recalled his suc-
cessor hero, whoever he may be, will
be surprised to see the spirit of vic-
tory which animates the brave Cuban
troops."
Madrid, Oct 0.—The advent of the
Liberal party to power has been re-
markably well received throughout
the whole peninsula, and it is popu-
larly credited that a moro salutary
regi ne in Cuba will be at once ini-
tiated with the recall of General Wey-
ler as the onening step. It is
understood that his successor will
be General Blanco, former governor
general of the Phillipines, consid-
ered the softest hearted soldier in
Spain. He is a subtle and kindly pol-
itician, and will, as a warrior, always
be prone to employ pacific in prefer-
ence to violent measures. He will be
fully authorized to approach the
rebels with a view to arriving at a
mutual agreement for the cessation
orhostilities Should he not go a gen-
eral will in any case be sent whose
modus operandi will be mercy and
conciliation, not extermination and
deliberate Inhumanity.

priating to his own use 815,000 worth

Another Spanish Revolution Feared.
London, Oct fl —The Evening Stand-
ard, commenting upon the Spanish
crisis, expresses fear that the firm at-
titude assumed by the queen regent
and the appointment of Senor Sagasta
to form a new cabinet are too late and
that Spain has yet another revolution

rible of all.

Chicago, Oct. 6. — Extremely hot
weather for October is now prevailing
in this section. During the past
twenty-four hours the thermometer in
this city went up to 86 degrees, and,
according to the signal service records
this is the highest point that has been
registered in October In twenty-seven
years. Dense smoke aggravates the
condi tions and many wrecks on the
lake are expected, navagation being
carried on only with extreme difficulty.
Chicago's southern wards and su-
burbs are surrounded by prairie Area
Hundreds of acres have been burned
over, and thousands of sidewalks and
fencing have been consumed. Fire-
men in this division of the city are
completely exhausted fighting prairie
fires by day and night Most of the
fires are started by sparks from loco-
motives, and not infrequently by mis'
ehievous boys, who set the grass on
fire for excitement
A dispatch from Bremen, Ind., savs
that hundreds o* acres of land in the
northern portion of Mtu-shall county,
comprising what is locally known as
the "Big Marsh," is one vast smolder-
ing waste. Just west of Walkerton
more than 1,000 acres has been swept
of every vestige of vegetation, many
thousands of tons of hay and miles of
fenccs having been consumed.
CLARKSON RATES.
The Kansas Insurance Magnate Sur-
prised lo Bis Injunction Suit
Toi'EiA, Kan., Oct 6 —The Harrl
son C'larkson injunction suit against
Webb McNall, Insurance commissioner
came up for hearing before Judge
Hazen this morning and Clarkson
swore that his rates were purely ad-
visory.
Frank S. Thomas, a local insurance
agent, flatly contradicted Clarkson
and testified that the Clarkson rates
were generally accepted as those for
Kansas and that agents here adopted
them with that understanding. He
supposed all other agents did the same.
L. M. Crawford, who owns several
opera houses in Kansas, said that he
had been trying for years to get
lower rates, but the agents told him
that Clarkson made the rates and that
they had no authority to change
them. He said he had a house in
Beatrice, a greater risk than his
houses here, which was insured for 3
per cent while he paid 3 per cent
here. He had been told v-* way of
explanation that the Cl| cson rates
governed here but not in ..ebraska.

three wives, and two children by the
second, to whom he was married in
Leonard, Shelby county, and who is
now with her parents in Armstrong.
The first wife came from Illinois,
and the third was Miss Lola Kruse of
Armstrong. The third's marriage to
Smith was her second, her first hav-
ing been annuled because the man to
whom she had been married, a com-
mercial traveler named Greene, had
been a bigamist

tlond Trouh * In Blackwell,
Col. B. N. Woodson, a Newkirk at-
torney, came to the capital last night
to aecure through Judge Dale an order
to restrain the trustees of the town of
Blsckwell from issuing snd disposing
of 924.000 water works bonds, The
application is sworn to by J. L Potts,
a resident and tsx payer of Black
well, who alleges that on the 30th of
September an election was held at
Blackwell for the ostensible purpose
of voting $24,000 water works bonds,
but really to be used as a bonus to aid
in the construction of the Hutchinson,
Oklahoma & Gulf railroad. The
plaintiff avers that the assessed valu-
ati >n of all the property, personal and
real, in the town of Blackwell, is but
871,300 and that the proposed issue of
834 0(0 in bonds is clearly illegal
Judge Dale refused to take action upon
th<writ, on tne ground that he bad
not he legal right to U6ue orders to
beofiff'ct on another judge, unless
the matter should be prebented before
him in his capacity as chief justice.
Attorney Woocaon accordingly re-
turned to Newkirk this morning, where
he will apply to Probate Judge Neff
for a restraining order.

Molding for tletter Prices.
Payne county cotton growers are
dis-atisfied with the present low
priees, and at a meeting beld in Still-
water perfected arrangements for hold-
ing their cotton and storing it free of
c >st The plan adopted Is lor the city
o furnish tho yard where it may br
stored. A competent person will be
in charge and every bale received will
be registered. Insurance will be taken
oat on the entire lot as fast as it ac-
cumulates so that owners will be pro
tected against lo6s by fire. Then
should holders desire to borrow money
0'i it they can do so upon much more
f&vorab e terms than when holding
the cotton themselves, as lenders feel
much more secure for the reason that
there is no danger of the cotton being
hauli d away without their kr owledge.
Another advantage to the growers is
that it will be tbe means of getting a
large quantity of cotton together and
tt *y can sell to better advantage than
in individual lots.
