Crowd Into Country, ,Just as rapidly as possible Nicaragua, is being made a good place In which to abide. American' capitalists and Investors are crowding Into the country w'lth rapidity. Now that the days of .the revolution are ended the machete made an Implement of agriculture Instead of war the future of in tunc iffiuuiu: uiuini origin. Mines are being developed, forests cleared, lagcons drained and homes built. Men from the north and middle western states are causing the hustle. There are St. Loulsana, Kansas Cltyans, Chlcagoans and men from numerous smaller cities who are interested financially in agriculture and mining work. Many are already realising on their Investments. 'Along the Ttlo Orando river there Is a wide stretch of territory covered with bamboo, some of which is planted In bananas. Shipments of bananas were taken out of that section fer the flrst time this week by the Tan-American Co., a Kansas City and St. Louis concern. There are half a doten small companies beginning operations and mlthln six months fully 200,000 or 300,000 acres of bananas will have been planted along that river, -which seems' to be the best for the culture of this particular fruit of any In the republic. The bananas about 3.000 tems shlrped this week were the finest taken Into the port of New Orleans. Mining throughout' the country, while being pushed. Is not bringing the money returns of fruit. Many men however, have struck It rich in the mining region. A Canadian by the name of McGlnnls, a carpenter by trade, located In the north part of the republic and founded the Lone Star Mine. Today he Is several times over a millionaire. Joe LaPero. a French Canadian, discovered the Bonanza mine from which millions In gold have been taken. The Topat ILoOO

Mining Co. Is another paying' venture. The chief difficulty with the mining is the matter of transportation. Big Banana Business. While the earnings of the various mines have proven satisfactory yet it is in the banana business that the figures presented by American experts prove amazing; they show payment for land, cost of clearing, planting and harvesting at the end of the second year with an additional profit of 50 per cent on the investment. They are Indeed startling, but the men who make them point to the United Fruit Company, having started business on a shoe string, so to speak, a few years ago, and being worth a few dozen millions today. They have tried rubber down here, and made a failure; cocoanut plantations bring forth fruit slowly; pineapples grow large, as do grape fruit and oranges, but they ripen so quickly and the Import duty is so beaevy that exportation under present conditions is hardly considered. Rice does fairly well while coffee on the west coast renches a high grade of perfection. The coffee, diplomatic and other officials assert. Is the finest In the world. The chief trouble on the east coast is finding a hillside level enough to stand on and cultivate the product. The labor question In Nicaragua has the servant girl issue in, the United States beaten a nautical mile. One man will tell you he has no trouble In getting labor. If he means real work there Is plenty to be done, but from the stand point of the employer, the task Is no easy one. Money means nothing to the average native. How Natives Are Paid. One plantation manager told your correspondent he had 60 men working for him and that he transacted business on 500 sols monkey money, they call It a year. This plantation conducts a store, as do the majority. The men are paid in the national currency which Just as steadily 'comes
back into the store. P.aying off labor In Nicaragua is much like taking a dollar from one pocket and putting it into another. That's all right, so far as It goes, but when the laborer generally an Indian or a Jamaican thinks he has too mueh to do, he quits. He can live without work, and works merely to please his foreman. The foreman who can get the good will of the Indian Is the valuable man. The superintendent of a coffee plantation has been trying to get 300 men to work for the last two years. At one time he had 130 and he Is a man the natives like too. The manager of a big banana plantation Is having the same trouble. A month or two Is frequently spent get ting half a hundred men together. Indians stay close to their villages and the hope of the planter is the building of these conglomerations of huts. Give the workers a bamboo covered shed in which to live, build them a church of the same material and secure for thorn a preacher, even though their morals seem lax, and the natives will probably spend their when they feel so inclined. Now and then they wander away and get outside of all the bad whisky they can buy, but they return in time to again take up the machete. Good . treatment appears to be tho only secret', if there be any secret of getting labor In Nicaragua. FT.

EL PASO SPEECH HOT REFERRED TO BY W, J. BRYAN (Continued From Page One.) 1900 and if you will take our declaration and Roosevelt's at Ossawatomie tenyears later and shake them in a big bag you would have difficulty in discovering which was which. "John Kern was fighting against j fore Mr. Roosevelt entered the arena." Mr. Bryan left Richmond to deliver speeches in the Illinois district which is represented by Speaker Cannon. While here he took occasion to pay tribute to the late David B. Hill, and commenting on his death said that Hill was directly responsible for the chance he had in 1896 to make his famous "cross of gold" speech. Bryan related the following inside history of that famous Incident: Visits Senator Hill. "The committee on resolutions had wrestled long and hard on the adoption of the money plank. I visited Senator Hill, chairman of the committee, to arrange the details of the debate. Senator Tillman and myself were the only speakers for the majority report. Senator Tillman asked for 50 minutes, and preferred to close the debate. I laid the request before Senator Hill, but he objected to such a long speech at the close. Senator Hill insisted that Senator Tillman should speak flrst. "Thus Senator Hill's objection to Tillman's request gave me the closing speech and the opportunity offered by it. Later, while the debate was in progress, I heard the voice of Governor Russell of Massachusetts, from where I sat Just across the aisle from Mr. Hill, excitingly protesting that Senator Vilas of Wisconsin, was not going to leave him any time, the minority i time having been divided between Senator Hill, Senator Vilas and Governor Russell. "I stepped across the aisle and suggested that the minority's time might be extended-lf it should be so desired providing a like extension were given to the closing speech of the majority. This was agreed to, and so it came that about 10 minutes was added to my closing speech and it turned out that I needed the time." ELEPHANT KILLS MAN New York. Oct. 21.

Senator Cummins Pays a Last
Tribute to Late Sen. Dolliver
Ft. Dodge, la., Oct. 21. While a L cold rain fell in torrents and added gloom to the already sorrowful occasion, the body of Senator J. P. Dolliver was laid to rest in Oakdale cemetery on a hillside overlooking the city yesterday afternoon. The funeral services were held In the armory which accommodated 6,000 and all of the available space in the building was filled, while stand-1 Inr smteM. wr almost 3 rtftft iwrnlo Senator Clapp of Minnesota, addressed the crowd outside the armory. Immediately upon the arrival of the United States senate and house committees at 1:30 o'clock, the simple service at the home, consisting of a prayer by Rev. William H. Spence of the Methodist Episcopal church of Ft. Dodge, was held. The body was then conveyed to the armory. Lined from the door of the Dolliver home down to the street were troops of the Fifty-sixth regiments of the Iowa national guard, under command of Colonels Chantland and Allen. As the pall bearers carried the body to the waiting hearse, the sentries stood with arms presented. Streets Lined With People. The United States Senators and congressmen and the few prominent men who had come to the home took carriages and followed the funeral procession. Along the six blocks to the army from the Dolliver home was one mass of people, who stood in places of vantage and waited with uncovered heads despite the downpour of rain. At the armory door, when the procession arrived, stood more soldiers, drawn up in double line and keeping the crowds back. As the body of the departed statesman was wheeled into the building the soldiers presented arms. On the stage of the armory were seated the clergy, "the United States senators and congressmen, the committee from the two houses of the Iowa general assembly, all state officers and other speakers. The space in front of the stage was a mass. of flowers. Particularly noticeable was the huge wreath sent by the United States senate. Into the center of this mass of flowers the casket was wheeled. The services in the armory were brief and beautifully impressive. A half dozen men representing the church, the state, the government and the private citizens of the country, eulogized the departed senator. Preceding the speeches at the armory the regular Methodist Episcopal burial services were held. Rev. D. A. McBurney read the burial ritual. He was followed by Dean Luther Freeman, president of the Morningside college, who read a hymn. Dean Chandler of the same school then read Jhe Ninetieth Psalm, after which Let us supply you with glasses which will enable you to work, read or write without effort. MISS C. M.

Rev
E. S. Johnson offered a short yi ay Colleague's Tribute. Speakinsj in behalf of the United States Benate, Senator A. B. Cummins voiced his appreciation of the life and work of Senator Dolliver. He said in part: "In behalf of his colleagues in the senate I am bidding him a last goodby rather than uttering a eulogy which later on will pour from the V l UIa "ltuus " luc luamuci which he so often filled with the lofty strains of his inspiring eloquence. I am lamenting over the irreparable loss we have suffered. I am thinking of his work, mightily advanced, bat still unfinished. "We shall miss him as we would no other man. To him was given a measure of affection rich in its quality and royal In its extent. No man surpassed him in the accuracy of his analysis, the depth of his thought or the thoroughness of his investigation. "His was the master mind, and it is inexpressibly sad that at the climax of his influence, the zenith of his greatness, when his vision was clearer and broader than ever before, we must give him up." A SETTLEMENT MADE After a hearing in the city court Friday morning that occupied an hour or so, the charge of assault and battery brought against Levi Rhodes by George W. Harvey, was dismissed, the evidence not being sufficient for a conviction. The trouble between Rhodes and Harvey arose in connection with the shoeing of a horse by Rhodes for Harvey and the charge by Harvey that other work had been run in ahead of his. He told Rhodes be would take his horse away and not come into the shop again. Rhodes told him that he could not take the horse away until he had settled his account in full.

scuffle ensued In which Harvey claimed he was struck twice by Rhodes in the face. He then started to leave the shop, he says, and was struck twice more. The other accounts of the affair showed that Rhodes had not struck a blow and was simply insisting on payment of his account because Harvey had declared he would no longer patronize the shop.
