FIRST OF THE SUA SOY. iZIeventh District Will Xomlnnte a Conjrrcssmim ut Kokomo, Tuesday. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. KOKOMO, Ind.. March 8. The candidates are on the ground for the Eleventh district . (Republican congressional convention In this city Tuesday, which is to he the first congressional nominating convention of this year. The delegates will arrive on the afternoon trains to-morrow, and the work of making a Congressman will be on In earnest. There are but two pronounced candidates MaJ. George W. Steele, the present lacumbent, from Grant county, and Hon. James F. Stutesman, of Peru, a member of ' tho State Legislature. There will be 123 delegates. The six counties arc represented as follows: Cass, ID; Grant, 31; Howard, 18; (Huntington, 13; Miami. 16; Wabash, 20. Ulajor Steele, who is now serving his fifth term in Con?res, is confident of renomination. Mr. Stutesman's followers are active and hopeful, an I claim that Mr. Steele has no sure thins. Mr. Steele's alleged declaration advising the convention not to instruct the rational delegates for McKinley Is not relished by the majority of the Republicans, as it is understood that he favors the candidacy of Reed. The sentiment In the district Is strongly for McKinley, and Mr. fckutesman's friends are working this for all that can be squeezed out of It. The Steele delegation will te accompanied by the Soldiers Home Band, of Marion and the Peru band will be here with tho Stutesman followers. As it looks to-day Steele will be easily the winner. WABASH, Ind.. March 8. The Eleventh district Republican congressional convention , at Kokomo next Tuesday will not be a wildly exciting affair, though it will be an enthusiastic Republican gathering. It is con-Ce-ded, even by the friends of Hon. James Stutesman. who Is opposing Major Steele, that he Utter will receive the congressional nomination by an overwhelming majority. Grant county will give Majar Steele its solid vote cf thirty-one; Wabash county, with twenty votes, will bo practically umnlmjus for him; he Is assured of nearly all of Howard's vote, and will have a large majority in the delegations from Huntington and Cass. There are 123 delegates la the convention and Major Steele, it Is practically settled now, will receive between SO and 100 votes. Mr. Siutesmn his, however, made fen excellent lmpreseion over the district and .will be a formidable candidate in 1S3S. when. It Is understood, Major Steele will not be in the race.

The Herald will to-morrow publish an Interview between Senor Raines and Its special correspondent had while en route from Albany to Rochester, In which the following Is a part: "That bill will go through the Assembly without crossing another "V or dotting an "1." Not only will it . be unchanged In form, but there will be no delay in sending It to the Governor." The bill referred to was the famous Raines bill. Continuing, the Senator said: ."The bill will be passed in the Senate on 'Tuesday next. Inside of ten days it will be in the Governor's hands. Long before the end of the current month It will be a aw on the statute books of this State." The present bill,"- the Senator said, "taxes only the seller of intoxicating liquors. This bill will raise approximately i.",wo,000 in revenue. My idea is that, next year we shall make the manufacturers pay their share of the tax- The manufacturers ought to be made to pay as much as the seller, and J3,CU0,U0O revenue from the manufacturer will practically wipe out the State tax. "How will I reach the manufacturer? In the easiest way 'imaginable. Simply by putting a tax of fifty cents on every barrel of beer made In New York State. That's the next problem to be tackled. Before I retire from my three years term as Senator, I hope that not one dollar will have to be raised by direct taxation for State purposes. The inheritance tax, the corporation tax, the excise tax and the manufacturers' tax ought to bring in the $13,000,000 required to run the State government." Kfinsa Solid for McKinley. WICHITA, Kan., March 8. The Republican State convention to elect six delegates at targe to the St. Louis convention will convene In this city on Tuesday. A few polltlcans straggled Into town to-day, but It 13 expected there will be a general influx tomorrow morning. It 4s a foregone conclusion that the McKinley men will have everything their own way, in view. of the action of a majority of the county conventions instructing for the Ohloan. The action of the six congressional district conventions yet to be held is no more in doubt than is the action of the State convention, and it is as good as settled that Kansas will send a solid delegation to St. Louis instructed for McKinley. It is generally agreed, too, that Tuesday's convention, will indorse Cy Leland for member of the Republican national committee. OB1TUAKY. Ilear Admiral Henry Wnlke, Who Served In Two War. NEW YORK. March 8. Rear Admiral Henry Walke died at his home In Brooklyn at 3. -OS o'clock this afternoon. Rear Admiral Walke had been suffering since Tuesday last from a severe attack of the grip, tun the Immediate cause of death was heart failure. Mr. White, the family physician, had very little hopes of his recovery, and the family was prepared for the worst. For some time before he passed away he was unconscious. The deceased's wife and children were et'hls bedsld when he expired. He leaves a widow, three sons and two daughters. Henry Walks was born In Virginia, eightyeight years ago. Ills father, Anthony Walke, was a college student at Yale with John C. Calhoun. When quite young the deceased was taken to Ohio, receiving his education at the Chlllicothe Academy. In 1S27 he became a midshipman In the navy, being assigned to the frigate Alert, under the command of Lieutenant Farragut. He was present at the surrender of Vera Cms during the Mexican war. being executive officer cf the brig Vesuvius. During the ?ar of the rebellion he commanded the Kunboats Taylor and Lexington, and protected General Grant's army while It was making its retreat on the transports. He was also at the battle of Fort Henry in charge of the gunboat Carondelet. He was successful in getting the Carondelet past Island No. 10 on April 4. 1862. while the enemy's shots fell on it like haiL For this piece of work the commander was honorably mentioned. In 1S62 for his bravery he was made a captain. In 1SC5 he was made a commodore, and a rear admiral In 1870. One year later he retired, having the proun'd distinction of being the first officer to do so voluntarily to give the younger men a chance, Banker Rlrhnrd Irvln. NEW YORK.

HYPNOTISM A EEA1EDY

OFOUYDED PREJUDICES OP THE PfllLIC AGAINST ITS t'SE. One lhlrlan Who Think It I a Ilarmle A Kent What It Can Do and What Its Limitations Are. New York Tribune. Dr. Carleton Simon, who, after twentyfour hours' treatment, restored speech the other day to a woman who had been dumb for six years, was recently asked for his views concerning hypnotic influence and its use in medicine. The doctor was loath to speak on the su'bject. He did not relish being considered a "worker of miracles," he said, and wa.t well aware that. In the present attitude of the public toward hypnotism, a physician who avowed the use of it in his practice laid himself open to the charge of necromancy, quackery or other derogatory assumptions. "1 recognize the benefits to be derived from its use in certain cases, however," he asserted, "and intend to avail myself of It whenever those disorders fail to yieCd to so-called legitimate treatment." "Don't you think hypnotism a dangerous power In the hands of an unscrupulous person?" he was asked. "No; because I know that an Individual cannot be made to do, when in the hypnotic state, any act which he would not do when in a normal condition. For instance, if you were constitutionally and conscientiously averse to stealing, I could not cause you to commit a theft, no matter how much influence I had over you.. A man could not be made to kill another by hypnotic Influence, unless that man was at heart a murderer when in his natural state. The argument that ' hypnotism is dangerous is frequently advanced; the theory that it can work good instead of harm, but little dwelt upon. Its possibilities for good have not begun to be developed or recognized. "What Is called hypnotism is largely due to the imitative faculty inherent in everybody. There is nothing weird or supernatural about it; nothing that cannot be accounted for and explained on a purely scientific basis." The Doctor uttered the last words somewhat impatiently and leaned back in his chair as though to say, "All opinions to the contrary notwithstanding." "The same indefinable Influence that make a man yawn on a street car merely because he sees the man opposite him yawn is intensified in hvDnotism. There are a .great many instances in . which we notice tnis attitude ox mind, in a theater, ror example, a man will find himself applauding a Joke or situation not because he himself thought It so good, but because the people around him applaud. We are all unconsciously imitative of thoae around us. If I go to have an interview with a stranger and he sits bolt upright on the edge of his chair, I do likewise, whereas, if he receives me informally and there is a suspicion of loll in his attitude, I Instinctively assume a like position, both mental and physical." "Do you think hypnotism likely to become an lmportatnt factor in a physician's practice?" ITS IMPORTANCE IN PRACTICE. '.T regard it as of inestimable value in the treatment of nervous diseases, particularly when combined with Turkish baths, massage and other remedial agents. I think that It will not be long before psychology reveals to us much that Is now doubtful and obscure." "Can you tell as soon as you see a patient whether that patient is a subject for hypnotic Influence?" "Not always. Sometimes I can diagnose the case at once. This morning I was called to a woman in Brooklyn. She was suffering intense pain from reuralgia in her face, pain so intense that her mouth was drawn to one side, partially paralyzed. She had an ugly swelling on her neck, independent of the neuralgia. "'You are suffering intense pair now? I asked her, as soon as I understood the symptoms. " 'Dreadful pain, she answered with an effort, and her appearance certainly Indicated it. I drew out my watch. " I give you Just live minutes to get rid of that pain I told her, speaking in a determined manrer. 'You see where the hand of this watch Is now? Well, when it registers five more minutes your pain will have left you t "She looked at me doubtfully. The minute hand flew round, and, at the expiration of the time, she put her hand to her face, patted it curiously and admitted in a surprised way that the pain was all gone. Now, I car treat neuralgia that way. In certain cases, because neuralgia Is a disorder of the nerves. But I can't dispose of the swelling under her neck in any such fashion. She is under a regular course of medical treatment" "A men called here last night and begged' me to treat hl3 wife, who was suffering with a cancer. She had undergone two operations, neither of which was successful, and, as a last resort, hearing, he 6ald. that I possessed some wonderful means of mind cure, or something, he had come to me. " 'My dear fellow I said, 'this Is no case for me. I can't do impossibilities. Neither can any man. Cancer is a very different order of disease from hysteria or any disorder of the nervous system. Surgery and medicine have failed to aid the case, and common sense ought to tell you that nothing can be done aside from that He went off quite indignant that I would not accompany him. "Two days ago," the doctor went on, "another man consulted me about his wife, and to that man I could be of aid. His wife had been much in love with a former suitor and on the eve of marriage with him. After all preparations were made for the wedding the bridegroom Yalled to appear, and his disaffection was naturally a source of much KTlef and mortification to the prospective bride. Time passed on and she married married happily; still, the old trouble weighed 'on her mind, and whenever he visited her father's home, where she had known and loved this faithless suitor, it all came back to her, and she was plunged into a lamentable state of melancholia bordering on aberration of mind. I told this man that whether or not I could help his wife would depend upon her nervous temperament. You tee, hypnotism is simply a condition resulting from suggestion, whether the suggestion be mental or physical, and the ultimate result is successful or unsuccessful according to the imitative faculty of the individual. .Now, in this case, after the patient has pas-sed into a hypnotic condition, I shall impress it upon her mind that she never knew a man who JKted her. I shall tell her emphatically that this man whom she thought eo much of never meant to marry her; that that part of the affair was only her own Imagining, and she must forget it. 'When you meei. this m?.n in future I shall tell her, 'treat him as you would an ordinary acquaintance, because he really was never anything more to you. The rest was only a fancy on your part. "When the patient comes out of the hypnotic state her mental attitude toward this Individual will be according to my suggestion. I have not yet seen her, but feel perfectly confident, from the circumstances told me, that I can cure her melancholy. MXHIB1D IDEAS VANISHED. "Another Instance which I have already successfully treated was In the case of a man who, though entirely sound In mind, tnd a morbid desire to kill himself on account of certain occurrences. In this case the wife appealed to me in behalf of her husband. After eight years of married life, she told me, a child was born to them, an event which the father had anticipated with the greatest Joy. When the Idolized Infant was a few months old it died under peculiar circumstances. The mother was sitting on the edge of the bed nursing it one n!ght, when the husband and father stirred in his sleep and flung his arm out restlessly. He was a strong man. His heavy hand hit the baby's head In a tender spot, and the infant died from the effects of the blow. The father felt that he could never forgive himself. Tne incident preyed on his mind and he longed for release from hl3 trouble and selfreproach by means of suicide. He loved his wife, and, not caring to leave her lonely, actually entertained the idea of killing her first and then putting an end to himself. "I caused th man to pass Into a hypnotic condition. Then I suggested to him that his child had died from scarlet fever and that the idea that he was tho cause of its death was erroneous. My words took effect, and when he came into his normal condition he remembered only that he had had a child, but was relieved of all morbid fancies in regard to his share In its death. His wife and those brought into immediate contact with him will be careful not to bring up anything that will cause his thoughts to revert to their old channel." "What means do you U3e to produce the hypnotic condition in your patients?" "There are various ways, both mechanical and psychological. Looking fixedly at a glittering object will Induce the mesmeric effect, similar to the Influence that obtains in snake charmlnar. something that relates to the optic ucrvo. That Is termed the BraU system.

One may hypnotize by the voice, by means of passes, and so on. The whole theory of hypnotism Is based on suggestion, and the suggestion may be either mental or physical." "Can any physician who. .desires learn the practice, or mu; he be peculiarly adapted in physique, manner or appearance?" "Any one could study the principles; of course, the measure of success must depend on his devinatlon of the receptive qualities of his patient. To hypnotize, the practitioner must undoubtedly possess strojig individuality, or sufficient to impress his suggestions on the mind of his subject. Charcot, the best exponent hypnotism has had, possessed a peculiar individuality. I studied under Charcot, and was always aware of this personality when with him. He 'impressed me profoundly, yet there was nothing remarkable in his appearance. He was a medium-sized man, healthy and wholesome-looking." "Are there not various stages of hypnotism?" "Yes; it may be classified and called cataleptic, lethargic and somnambulistic. The cataleptic condition is that answering to what is commonly termed a trance; the lethargic resembles a tranquil slumber, and the somnambulistic 13 a natural condition, such as is assumed by people who walk about when sound asleep. "What is called kleptomania car. be cured by hypnotism, and the drinking habit may sometimes be corrected by It," continued Dr. Simon. "In case of the latter disorder, success would depend upon the conditions which induced intemperance. If inherited a gratifying result would be uncertain, but if a man drank because of disappointment, grief or trouble he could be cured. In the case of kleptomania there would be little doubt of success. I myself have cured a woman of kleptomania by associating in her mind the idea of a prison with the desire for appropriating things. This being done, when she was in a hypnotic condition the Idea remained fixed in her mind afterward, when she was normal. Always, when she saw something she wanted to sverete or carry away with her, the idea of the punishment came strongly before her mental vision and thus deterred her from the theft. Kleptomania is first a perversion of the mind, and afterward a habit. ; "Hypnotism is of real and assured value in dealing with ailments which have their source in the mental being, and many bodily ailments, being closely allied to these, can likewise be helped." REED'S SUPPORTERS.

New Engrlnnd la LoynI,'bnt Xot Enthaniaatlc. (Major Handy, in New York Mall and Express. A shrewd political observer who recently visited New England and tarried awhile in Portland told me that nothing; impressed him more than the fact that while the people of Speaker Reed's home town are favorable to his candidacy, they do not seem to be at all enthusiastic about it. "I found it the same way in every part of New England," he said; "they admire Reed, and as a matter of State or sectional pride are prepared to stand by him, but view his presidential aspirations very differently from what they did Blaine's. When I asked people in Portland what they thought of Reed the reply almost invariably was. 'Well, he is a mighty smart man, and then they would begin to" ask me about McKinley. It isn't exactly a case of prophet without honor in his own country, for undoubtedly Reed !s honored and respected at home, but somehow or other they do not take his statesmanship and national reputation seriously. Another thing I want to tell you is that I do not believe a single New England Senator from Frye down, except Chand!er and Lodge, want to see Reed in the White House. I do not mean to impugn their loyalty to him, for as a matter of fact, they are making no. particular professions, but the facts are as I tell you, and there is not one of them with whom I have not talked. It is my firm belief that the heart of New-England is with McKinley." In my opinion this diagnosis Is pretty near correct, and that without disparagement of Reed's ability or claims. Republicans in New England look upon Reed about as do Republicans In the rest of the country. There is no pronounced demand for his occupancy of the White House yet awhile. He is believed to be the man of all others for the place he now holds. For the speakership every Republican constituency in the United States would give him a unanimous vote in 'ratification of the action of the House of Reoresentatives. But as an aspirant for President this year he is not seriously regarded by the masses, and it is my firm belief that before the people he would not get one vote to McKinley's ten. It is not that the people love Reed less, but that they love McKinley more. BETTER Til AX X HAYS. Professor Ilnminel, of Baltimore, Ex- - IerlineiitM'4'Itii' a Magnet. Philadelphia Recofci. Prof. William C. A. Hammel.'Of the department of physics of the Maryland State Normal School, at Baltimore, claims to have secured perfect photographs of hidden objects with the aid of the ordinary horseshoe magnet. The results of his experiments, he claims, are far superior to those attained through the use of cathode rays. In that he secured a perfect photograph of the objects, li?ht and shade Included, Instead of the rough outline, as produced by the X rays process. Professor Hammel says the new photography is not dye to cathode rays, but to a new force of a Inagnetic nature. In speaking of his experiments to-day he said: "Being interested in the new developments of the so-called X rays, I tried the experiment reported by Professor Pratt, of Chicago. Working underthe. most favorable circumstances I found, after numerous trials with different exposures, that upon developing the plates they showed no signs whatever of having been affected by the magnet. I then conceived tne idea tnat if it were possible to make photographic Impressions upon a sensitized photographic plate it would be necessary to direct the force of the magnet toward the plate. I placed four soft Iron nails In a heavy pasteboard box, and over the nails an extra rapid sensitive plate, film side up, and placed a double cover on the box. Over this I put a pine board, one-half inch thick, and upon this an ordinary horse--shoe magnet. I left the apparatus for twelve hours in a dark room. So you see there was no possibility whatever ofi the plate's being acted -upon by any force other than that possessed by the magnet. On developing the plate I obtained a sharp impression of the magnet, somewhat larger than the magnet used. "I have made other experiments with Interesting results. I have succeeded In photographingor, more proper, magnetographing opaque objects, showing distinct contrast of light and shadow upon the negatives. This haa npver been done by means of the X rays. Furthermore, . I have, obtained a perfect positive upon the same plate, with negative Impressions of a number of opaque objects.. These latter experiments were performed with the use of a three-quarter-inch board, in place of the one-half-inch board." . Sprinir Trade in Literature. New York Tribune. The litterateurs of Chicago are bu?y at work getting their spring goods ready for. th market. Mr. Hamlin Garland Is executing with great ardor a commission to write a life of Grant for serial publication in a New York masrazine; Mr. Henry Fuller is putting the finishing tenches on fome articles for another 'ew York magazine; Miss Lillian Bell is burning midnight oil on '"literary orders," presumably for Mr. Bok's Journal; Mrs. Llndon Bate is deep in a fifty thcusand-word romance, and various other writers of only local fame are preparing for a debut on a larger stage. Altogether there Is a promising outlook for a good spring trade. Indoor "Hike Record Smashed. SAN FRANCIHCO. March 8.

S0F OF HETTY GREEN

IIB IS ItEC.IXI.G TO FULFILL HIS MOTHER'S FONDEST HOPES. Has Become Prominent in Texna Polltics and la Making; III Mnrk In ' Basinesn Ilia 3Iother' Plan. New York Letter. Contentment has come into the life of Mrs. Hetty Green. Her son Edward Is becoming a great man. She always knew he would. Her boy Eddie represents to her everything in life that Is really worth having. Some persons think that money might be added, but those who know Mrs. Green well say that her seemingly intense desire for accumulation of money is born of one purpose, and that Is to make Edward the richest man on earth. Edward is now down in -Texas making a name for himself and deiightinsr his mother's heart. Every day Mrs, Green comes to some friends with a new story illustrative of her son's cleverness, and she always adds that the hopes she has cherished of his future career are to be realized. For a long time the young man was on probation, his mother refusing to form her opinion of him or warm toward him until he had proved himself to be of U-e right kind of metal. Now she thinks he has passed every test and exceeded expectations. There Is no such clever boy anywhere, Mrs. Green firmly believes, and those who know her are convinced that if he were to say that he wanted $10,000,000 she would give It to him with less hesitation than she would spend a cent for a red apple. It appears from accounts that Mr. Edward cuts some Ice In the Lone Star State. He Is a boomer for Republican principles, and the strength of the party in Texas is said to be at his back. The Republicans down there are saying that he is the most available man to nominate for Governor next election. WThen the last nomination was made the party leaders asked Mr. Green if he wanted It, and after a conference with his mother, in whose Judgment he has strong faith, he decided that he did not. But Mrs. Green was mightily pleased, nevertheless. It was a long time before she concluded that to pass the honor was the advisable course. It was not until she had canvassed the strength of the Republicans and figured on the chances of the Populists that she decided that it would be better for Edward to wait awhile. She thought that things looked too unsettled then to give scope to her son's talents, and that he could afford to wait. Mr. Green has now formed the opinion that the time for him to become a figure in politics has arrived and from the expressions of Mrs. Green, some persons Infer that she is willing to give him her blessing and pocketbook and let him go ahead. In his boyhood Edward had a hard time of it. While he was growing up he had a series of misfortunes which caused his mother's heart to warm toward him. SMALL ALLOWANCE . It is related, however, that while he was growing up 50 cents a day was allowed him for his meals, and he used to, eat In Dave Holland's restaurant in Fourth avenue. Just below Union square. He spent a great deal of time around the old Are house on Thirteenth street. Even when his days of suffering came, as the results of accidents in earlier life, and while he was fast reaching tnanhood, his mother did not choose to demonstrate her affection by supplying him with an extravagant amount of money. She had her own ideas regarding what was best for him and, it is said, while she seemed to care little for his future, it was a constant source of anxiety to her. But she wanted to give him a chance to prove himself and learn the value of a dollar and the necessity of thrift and economy. Ned, as everybody called him, didn't seem to learn one part of his lesson. He was too cood a fellow to be able to save

money on 50 cents a day. and he was always ahead of his allowance with his current obligations. Still, his taste of poverty is said to have made him a self-reliant and philosophical man. It would take many blows of adversity, in Mr3. Green's Judgment, to knock him out now. The accident that caused him so much trouble during his youth was of a peculiar nature. While his mother wa in the office of J. J. Cisco, an early day Wall-street broker, having a heated argument over her "husband's losses, which she was asked to eettle. the boy was playing outside. Some one came along, and, picking the boy up playfully and lifting him over a fence that guarded an areaway, let him drop a little bit roughly on tjie other side. Ned slipped upon the cover of the cellar manhole and his knee cap was broken. It never got entirely well, and some years later, when he was less than ten years old, a boy playmate whom he had not seen for a Ions time demonstrated his pleasure by putting his hands on Ned's shoulders and vaulting over his head. This boy was much larger than Ned, and his weight dislocated the weak knee, which became so much wcrse that finally his leg had to be amputated. When Mrs. Green determined that Edward should be tried in the capacity of railroad manager she sent him down to Waco, Tex., to take charge of a couple of little roads she owned there, neither of them being more than 150 miles in length. The first thing he did after he got the management of these roads in his hands was to consolidate them, Increasing their efficiency and saving money. He named them the Texas Midland railroid and had himself elected president and general manager. This stroke of enterprise was an immense gratification to his mother. She told her friends that some day that boy would be the greatest railroad manager in the world, and the richest one. There was only one thing that troubled her about Ned after that. She feared he was inclined to be too liberal. She was afraid he would not make a good financier, because of his indisposition to drive close bargains. Soon he convinced her that he had a genius above petty economy. A CATTLE DEAL. The law in Texas says that all rallrcads must be fenced in. If they are not, and cattle from the ranches wander on the track and get killed the railroad his no alternative but to pay the price of the cattle. It always happens, of course, that every head killed Is of the highest value and that every one is with a calf, which makes it more valuable. It coats considerable money t3 build S00 miles of fence, as lumber is a high-priced article on the Southwest plains. It was a serious problem, as cattle claims were uncomfortably frequent, and it seemed as though every cox with calf alopg the 300 miles of road was being slaughtered by Mr. Green's road. 'One day there was a big shout. A cattle man brought a. big herd to one of the fixations of the Texas Midland for shipment. There was no chance of moving them to their destination for some weeks. He could not afford to keep them there and feed them. Mr. Green relieved him, in his dilemma, y buying the herd at a remarkably low price. Then Mr. Green put them grazing on the land of the Texas Midland railroad. The company now owns one of the largest cattle ranges along its line, and it cost comparatively nothing. Whenever a farmer brings In a claim for a cow with calf killed by the Texas Midland the ofneera of the company smile upon him and tell him tD go right out to the company's ranch, free transportation being furnished, and take hl3 choice of any cow with calf he rinds there. This has solved the problem. f When Mrs. Hetty Green heard about that masterly stroke she was eatisfled that her boy Edward was beyond criticism. She was satisfied that what he lacked in small thrift he made up on a broader scale. Since then he has had his own head In everything. She puts her Judgment of some things second to his. If he wants to run for Governor he can use his mother's bank account as if it were his own. Indeed, it Is believed that if Elward said he was ambitious to be the President of the United States Mrs. Green would be ready to lend him encouragement. But what Mrs. Hetty Green most delights in boasting about is her son's independence. He asks no odds of her at all, and that delights her. Certain Interests were given to him, and he has been building them and Increasing his stock of wealth without his mother's assistance, or without the sugestlon of the need of it. That is why she Is certain that nothing can hold him from eclipsing everybody in the railroad world, when he gets her millions In his own hands. Mr. Green, of Texas, makes his headquarter? at Dallas. Whatever he says to Republicans in Kaufman county goes. At the recent Republican convention of the Sixth congressional district, held for the purpose of selecting delegates to the national convention in St. Louis, there was a clash between young Green and J. M. McCormlck, another leader. The result was that Grien bolted and took more than half of the delegates with him. Two delegations from this district will, therefore, go to St. Louis. One I

o will be headed by young Green, and is pledged to support the nomination of Speaker Reed. The other will be headed by Mr. Mccormick, and will be pledged to support McKinley. Ordinarily, the Republican nomination in Texas is an empty honor. But, in these days, when Democrats are turning Populists in mining and cattle States and standing ready for alliances, there is no telling what may happen, even in Texas, with its lOO.OJX) Democratic majority. Mrs. Green thinks that if- her son goes into the contest, he will make the most gallant fight the Republicans of Texas have ever seen. A MAX "WHO HAS INQUIRED. Hovr an Anneke Jans Heir Obtnlned Some Information. New York Times. We are gratified to learn that one of the "heirs" of Anneke Jans has exhibited the possession of common sense by applying to the proper authorities for a little information. The course he has taken reminds us of the experience of one of the "heirs" to an English estate of $400,000,000 more or less, who in a lucid moment wrote to the probate Judge of the district in which the estate was said to be situated. The American "heirs to the estate in question has spent much money and time in establishing their claims, having been led to believe that the property had been left by an old man, having no known relatives, who had died without making a will. For the price of a postage stamp this inquiring heir, a broker in St. Louis, ascertained that the old millionaire had left a will and that the property had been distributed in accordance with the provisions of It in the early part of the present century. For seventy-five cents he procured a copy or the will. -Immediately thereafter he ceastd to be an "heir" and turned his attention to his legitimate business. The Anneke Jans "heir" of whom we have spoken is Mr. Edgar S. Bradley, of Omaha. The Jans fever, with which thousands of Americans have been afflicted since the first week of December last, "has ravaged certain portions of Nebraska, where the "heirs" have been excited by the story. about the impending distribution of the sum of $30,000,000. now lying in the Bank of Holland. At all the recent conventions of the Jans "heirs" It has been stated that this distribution is to be made within a few weeks because the Dutch government recently lost a suit against the bank by which it sought to btain possession of the money. It occurred to Mr. Bradley that it would be well to inquire of the diplomatic and consular officers of the United States in Holland concerning this great estate. In reply he received the following from Mr. Edward Downes, our consul at Amsterdam: "Your inquiry belongs to a numerous class, and the frequency with which applicants for information with regard to suppose i estates in Holland have been made to f.-ds consulate for several years past has led to patient and careful Investigation thereof in several instances where the information furnished by the applicants seemed to be specific enough to warrant such a proceeding. In no case has the existence of the supposed estate or alleged unclaimed fortune been verified. Moreover, the legislation of the Netherlands is such as to effectually and without appeal dispose, of all claims, even if .inherently Just and founded on an actual and known heritage,' which were not presented and proven prior to 1852." Some interesting documents accompanied this reply. One of them is a copy of a letter addressed by Count Randwljck, of the Orphans' Court of Holland, to Mr. Blrney, then minister of the United States at The 'Hague, who had applied to the court for Information concerning twenty-two "estates" which were engaging the attention of "heirs" in this country. The court knew nothing about any of them, and Count Randwljck made the followlnr statement: "According to the law of March 25, 1852. every estate the provenance of which could be traced has been advertised in the Staats Courant. if the money has not been reclaimed within five years it has fallen to the State. I should be happy If the numerous claimants in America could be made acquainted with these particulars, in order to prevent any useless trouble on their part." We described in the Times several years ago the nature and effect of this Dutch law of 1S53, and have shown more than once that IhtT) are no unclaimed or undistributed estates in Holland from which American "he'-s" can obtain a penny. We presume that Mr. Bradley's mind is no longer befogged by the silly tales about the $SO,000.000 In the Bank of Holland. But a great many "heirs" of Anneke Jans will decline to be enllgatened. They , expect, w suppose, to use the $SO.OOO,000 in recovering the remainder of the Anneke Jans property, Which consists of $750,000,000 worth of real estate in the heart of this city of New York. They will realize Just as much from the larger portion on this side of the Atlantic as they will obtain from the JSO,OU0.000 in the Dutch bank. EXPORTS OF MANUFACTURES. Fallacy- of the Fijcnrea Presented by the Free-Trade Pup era. American Economist. Free-traders have been very Joyful over an increase in our exports of American manufactured goods. As long as this is not brought about by the sacrifice of our home market it is, indeed, an encouraging sign. Last year. 1895, we sold in foreign countries $23,351. R02 more of our manufactures than in 1894. This includes an increase of $11,249,971 in our exports of mineral oil, refined or manufactured, leaving only $9,101,831 of increase for all other .manufactures exported. But the larger value of our mineral oil exports has been of no value to American labor because it represented shipments of 42,114.075 gallons le33 oil in 1895 than In 1?94. The refining or manufacturing of 42,000,03) gallons less oil for export has deprived labor of work. The increase in value merely represents an increase in the profits of the cil combine, which advanced the price cf oil so sharply last year. It did no good to American labor. Our labor suffered through having less oil to refine cr manufacture, and our labor also suffered through having to pay more money for oil when earning lower Excepting the oil exports, we have $9,101,831 worth more of American manufactures shipped abroad-last year than in 1894. Against this we must set the increase In our imports of foreign manufactures, thus leaving the following exhibit: Exports of ManufacturesTotal Increase, 1833 over 1891 $23,351,802 Mineral oil. refined or manufactured, decrease in . quantity, ' Increase In value...., 1U19.971 Increase In all other manufactured ' exports .......$ 9,101,831 Increase in all manufactured Imports 92.613.090 Net !'5ss to manufacturers $33,511,23 If it U advantageous to us to Increase our exports by $9,101,831, it must be correspondingly more advantageous to the foreign countries that Increased their exports by $92,613,090. Deducting our small gain from their greater gain leaves a net loss of $5rJ,511,259 to our manufacturers through the capture of our markets by foreigners, over and above the amount of their markets that we captured. a A . It should be noted that our manufactured exports do not include such a product as flour, which is certainly as much a "manufacture" as oil. In 1831 we exported flour worth 921.706. but in 1895 only $o0,292.8S6, a decrease of $8.G31,820. Had this manufactured product been included in the Democratic treasury statement, our total excess of exports last year would .have dwlnd.ed down to $170,011, as compared with increased imrorts cf manufactures wortn 132.613.030. It is Just as well to be more thoroughly explanatory than the free traders are. nunoEX of cl.evel.adism. AH the Present Indnatrlal EtIU r. Part of It. Philadelphia Telegraph. None but a strong man. In every sense, should occupy the presidency;' but there should be a careful distinction between genuine intellectual capacity and reasonable adherence to intelligently founded princlples.and blind obstinacy, the sequel to Ignorance and short-sightedness and the supplement ta wounded pride. The present generation has never witnessed a more remarkable perversion of true Ideas In this connection than in ths case of Mr. Cleveland, whose personal luipporters, very few and all the time growing less In Congress and in the Journalistic arena, now find it quite impossible, without Innulting the intelligence even of their own readers and followers, to defend him successfully before the enlightened Judgment of the country. It Is especially aggravating to note the corscienctless persistency with which efforts in this direction are still made.

IMPORT AST HISTORY IF TTU'B. A Veteran Telia n Thrilling Incident of the Slnxlmillnn Campaign, Chicago Times-Herald. ' He was an old soldier. He came Into Chicago club the other night as the gue of one of the members, and, if the storyhe told is true, there Is a bit of unwrttteni history which goes to show that the umtea; States was not always so punctilious about the observance of neutrality laws. "Immediately after the surrender or Eee," said the veteran, ' Grant dispatched Sheridan to the Rio Grande with an armr corps, so that he might be at hand ira case the United States decided to aid. Juarez in expelling the French from Mexico. I was attached to this corps, and oa arriving at the river the troops were distributed up and down the American bank. I wis with a command of cavalry, and left than a mile distant from us was encamped, an infantry regiment which had l" through all the battles of the civil war wlthi the Army of the Potomac. Directly acres the river from where we lay was an earthwork fortification, held by two battalion of Maximilian's troops. Two regiments or the republican party of Mexico had beea trying to take that fort for weeks. The.r encampment was below the river bank, a mllo or so distant from the monarchist troop3. , , "Every morning regularly the Mexican would come out and charge that redoubu and every morning as regularly they would break, scatter and run before they nat reached a point nearer than one hundred yards of the fort's parapet. We used ta turn out dally and watch the fun, but a the same thing was repeated over and over again, the sport grew tame, and finally no one took the trouble to go to the bank and see the charge. t "One morning the adjutant of our eommsnl went to all the flrst sergeants and intimated that there might be something worth seeing, on the othr side the next day. We supposed that the Republicans must have received, reinforcements, and that the thing was to b) ended. o. shortly after reveille the next morning our whole cavalry command llnJ the north bank of the Rio Grande and stoAl watching Maximilian's reioubt. Pretty soorr,, fram a mesqulte grove, far down to the left, the whlte-coited republican troops emerged. Instead of having been reinforced, there aipeared to be only about half as many as usual. They marched in columns of companies to a point about two hundred yarl distant frcm the fort, and appeared to mlnJ very little the shots that were hurtling through their ranks. All at once their command swung Into regimental front at doubla time and made straight for the enemy's parapet. We expected to see them break and! run, as usual, at the one-hundred-yard line. But they passed over it with unbroken rank and swept cn like a simoon. They reached the foot of the parapet, passed up and over it and Into the fort like the unbroken wave of a ground , swell. We heard shouts and yells, and then cheers, and a moment later the flag of republican Mexico had replaced that of Maximilian. "Twenty minutes later another regiment of republican troops came out from the shelter of the mesqulte trees, and marched Into th captured redoubt.' It was no: long before the command which had captured the fort passed over the parapet and retraced its steps over the ground taken in the assault. The captors wre making their way back to the republican! camp. Shortly afterward, way down th river, our glasses revealed to us a queer sight. A hundred small barges, filled with men Ira dark clothing, were making their way front the Mexican to the American shore. In an hour there passed through our company 'streets the veteran Infantry regiment or th army of the Potomac, which had been encamped on our right. They had a dozen wounded men with them. "Those fellows had grown tired of seeing the oft-repeated farce on the other Fide of the Rio Grande, and had made a night march into the camp of the Mexican republican troops. There they had been supplied with, white uniforms, and at break of diy they turned themselves loose at Maximilian's redoubt with the same dah that had carried them over the parapets at Petersburg. I don't know whether France ever heard) of this or not. but it Is certain that the Mexican government never made any klck.M.
