Situation.
DO 'NOT RECOGNIZE MONROEISM.
Thcv Also Insist That the New Tri
litinal Is Nut to i:!nllisli Prece
dent lor Arranging Future Disputes
Hetwcrn the I'nited Stall's mid
I'nited Kingdom in North nud South
America.
London. Nov. 11. The C.lobe. can-
niciitlng upon the Vein Su dan arhiira- ,
ti"n treaty, says It welcomes the agree- ;
inetit. because It releases the I'niti'd I
States from a false and dang thus posi-
tion. If the commission had reported ;
adversely to Great lirituiu, the paper
adds, President Cleveland would have
been forced to attempt to coerce (treat
ltritain or ent humble pie, with the re
sult that if the Washington govern
ment hud seen lit to enter the uncQiiat
contest with Kngland th' development
of the I'nlted Slates would have been
retarded for half a century. The Globe
also says: "It must he clearly under
stood that the legislation of the new ar
bitration tribunal Is not to establish
a precedent for arranging all further
disputes between the 1'nitcd States and
the 1'nited Kingdom in North and
South America, nor to recognize Mon
roeism as International law."
The St. .lames tJazette asks whether
the agreement will not throw into arbi
tration all of the region hetwen the
Si liombeig line and tin' settled terri
tory of Culunn, which Kngland has de
clared would never he submitted to ar
bitration, which course the flitted
States have declared Kngland would
be forced to take, "if it does," says the
(laz tte, "the American claim that tlm
agreement is a square bad: down on
tiie part of eircat Diituln, It la dillieult
to disprove."
The illlclals of the foreign office take
exceptions to the statements which
have been mad ' that Venezuela will
pot be represented directly in tiie arbi
tration tribunal. The foreign ulllee
authorities suggest that there is still
doubt whether Venezuela will have her
own member of the tribunal. At any
rate, Ciivat l'.rltaln regards the I'nlted
States representatives as acting for
Venezuela.
rr.oToi.'or, not yet stoned.
Washington. Nov. 11. The fact that
the protocol of tin' proposed Venezuel
an treaty of arbitration has not yet
been signed is made manifest by many
signs today. There has been a con
tinuous exchange of cable messages on
matters of detail between this city
ami London. Hut that some general
principle of agreement has been de
lormined upon is undoubted and has
lepeatedly been stated ill these de
spatches. The question whether or not
Venezuela is 11 party to the arrange
ment ni'pears to b- settled by tie'
otllcinl correspondence and by collet -eial
facts. Nowhere after June 1l',
IS'.Mi, dues Venezuela appear in the ne
gotiations us u principal or us having
a rluhl to select on arbitrator.
In support of the Idea that the treaty
is to be between Ureal Kriluin and
Hie I'nited States, the latter luting
is Venezuela's friend, it is pointed nut
that if tie- formal us.sent of tin: I re
public Is required to any protocol on
I he boundary question ii could not bo
i, In. lined under most favorable condi
tions, till limit alter the administra
tion of 1 'resident t'l-velaml wl'l tiave
expired bv limitation. Tne legislation
of Venezuela requires all treaties to
le ratified by a. vole of both houses
of the legislature in joint session. The
legislature of Venezuela do "S not con
vene in regular session till February
next, liven If an extra session Were
to be called it would lake a live weeks'
notice to get If together. I'nder the
usual methods of proceed tire In Latin
Amerh an countries the r.ummer of SU7
would be well advanced before the leg
islature would be ready to begin to
consider the question.
CHAIRMAN BYNUM'S ADVICE.
Sound Money Democrat Should As
iil the .McKinley Administration.
Indianapolis. Nov. 11. Chairman Ry
lium has declared that the duty of the
Found money Democrats In the finan
cial crisis Is not yet completed and will
not be until the cinreiicy laws ure re
formed. "Instead." said lie. "of adopting the
old rule of obstructing the legislation
proposed by the other party, the sound
money Democrats should assist to the
full extent of their power the McKinley
administration, In its efforts to remove
from tho financial system of our coun
try the things that endanger the coun
try. The time has arrived for united
action by the sound money hosts of the
I'nited States to secure such reforms
as are Imperatively needed. Exactly
wiiut legislation is demanded there is
as yet no agreement, but the subject
should engross the best financiers und
statesmen of the country. I fed cer
tain that the sound money Democrats
are willing to give all their assitsanee
In their power."
MR. M'KINLEV'S PLANS.
Will Spend a Urenter Portion of the
Time I mil March at Canton.
Canton, O., Nov. 11. Colonel and
Mrs. Myron T. Herrick, of Cleveland,
came to Canton this evening and spent
the night at the McKinley residence.
After some discussion of the matter
.Major McKinley said he had decided
to leave Canton Saturday morning for
Cleveland. He will be absent a week
or more, and if Mrs. McKlnlcy's health
should demand It, would go to New
York, though he has no such intention
now und fully expects to return to
Canton as soon as he has finished his
visit In Cleveland and remain here till
he goes to Washington.
During the afternoon a dozen mem
bers of the state board of commerce
from Akron and Cleveland culled on
Major McKinley to invite him to at
tend the annual meeting of the hoard
at Columbus on the tfth of December.
Major McKinley did not accept the In
vitation, but has taken the matter un
der advisement. Mrs. McKinley is
considerably better today, and was able
to go to the dining room for her meals.

AT THE MORSE SHOW.
An Advertising Scheme of mi Aclress
Is Nipped in the Hud.
New York. Nov. 11. drizzling rain
had n somewhat deterrent elfeet on
the allendaiee ut the horse show this
afternoon, but the rain stopped before
N o'clock.
The third day ulways appears to be
a favorite with the horse show goers,
and to-idght was no exception. The
boxes and reserved seats presented a
solid vista of black and white', relieved
from its severeness by the brilliant and
ever variegated costumes of the ladl.'S,
while on the floor the continuous
stream of humanity revolved in a nev
er ending whirl of kaleldscoplc color.
An Incident new to the exhibition of
the association occurred this evening.
A member of a troupe of well-known
music hall artists now performing in
this city had entered n white stallion,
and the entry list being open to all, her
entry was received. To-night the lady
appeared ready to mount and ride In
tics ring, when It was disceivered that
the horse was equipped with a saddle
usually used by the sterner sex. Fur- 1
ther investigation showed that the lady
was picturesquely attired in a long drib I
pnddock coat, which only partially dis
guised a pair offcton boots surmount ert
by pink fleshings. This proved a little
too strong for the management, and
she was notified that she could n 't ap- 1
pear in the ring In that attire. Shu ex- j
postulated, but the olllelals were ob- j
dm ate, ami a fine advertising scheme
was nipped in the bud. ;

Washington. No. 11. The thirtieth
session of the National Orange conven
ed this morning In the National Hotel,
this city, thirty States being represent
ed by 1.10 delegates.
At this afternoon's session, the an
nual reports of the several ollicers
were read. Worthy Master J. H. Brlg
ham briefly considered a number of
pertinent topics.
Of agricultural conditions, he said:
The farmer who is receiving fair returns
for his labor and invested capital Is
now the exception. There has been no
general failure of crops, but the prices
received for most of them do not pay
for the lubor of production. Such con
ditions are very discouraging.
It is well known to all ef us that com
petition in the growth nnel marketing
of many of the products of the farm is
world wide. Our breadstuff's, meat and
cotton must compete in European mar
kets with like products of nil exporting
countries, in many of which, land nnd
labor ure much cheaper than in our
country. These competing countries
utv rapidly Intreiduclng improved ma
chinery and methods of tillage, und
their cheap labor is soon able to handle
machinery and skill. Such conditions
combined with continually Improving
facilities for transporting of crops of
these eouniros to market may well
awaken uppiehenslon in the minds of
the American farmers.
We cannot control production, nor
rrgulnle the cost thereof in foreign
countries. There Is no profit in selling
in the markets of the- world below the
e.ist of production. If we cannot com
pete witli th" cheaper land and labor
in these markets we can at le'ast con
trol our own markets nnd produce near
ly everything needed to supply our own
people. Why should we buy sugar,
wool, ele., from other iiiiiiitries when
we can produce them Ht bo:ne-
AOItTCI'I .TriiE SHOT'T.D HE i'KO
TEC'TEl .
The people seem to have decided ill
favor of adequate prote-ciion to Ameri
can industries. We can, theiefore.
without regard to our own personal
views, consistently demand for agri
culture the full measure nf protection
accorded to other industries, und we
should accept nothing less. The ad
dress condemned the single tax theory,
said that good, solid, sensible practi
cal work is needed In the u gricultr.ru I
department, and that, the department
needs the help of all the farmers, but
that their confidence must be secured
before they will venture suggestions,
and demanded the extension of the free'
mail delivery to the rami districts.
Eva McDowell, treusurer, reported
receipts during the year $17,'iti."i.;i. in
cluding $i'.71C.l':i Interest mi mortgage,
and $li..ri!i7.1a. dues from state gtangeis.

llimetnllism Are Adopted.
Indianapolis. Ind., Nov. 11. The sec
ond day's scslson of the Farmvr's Na
tional Congress began in the State
House to-day at Itt o'clock. X. U.
Spaulding. of New York, read a paper
on "Is a state or national income tax
desirable." The subject brought forth
considerable discussion, and ulso the
fact that the farmers are divided poli
tically. Mrs. Ada M. Ewing, of Iowa,
spoke on the "Advancement of agricul
ture," und Colonel J. C. Cunningham,
of Xorth Carolina, spoke on "Methodist
master of masters." At the afternoon
session these subjects weie discussed:
"Why option dealing should lie sup
pressed." by Colonel .1. C. Iienhnm. of
.Missouri: "The citizt nshi; of woman,"
by .Mrs. Katherlne Stall, of Illinois;
"The silver question after the election."
by tSeneral Hoy Stone, of the depart
ment of agriculture ut Washington.
Following out the suggestions of
President Clayton's annual address,
Judge Lawrence-, of Pellefontaine, Ohio,
to-day introduced these resolutions,
which were adopted utter a warm dis
cussion: Whereas, The general concensus of opin
ion of the people ot the I'nited Slates is
that gold and silver e'oia on n just parity
of vulue should he equally money of ulti
mate redemption without limit, In which
this Farmers' National Cjngres concur,
hut differences of opinion exist as to the
methods hy which this policy can be se
cured: and
Whereas, The recent election ristilled In
favor of the bimetallism by Internationd
agreement of the principal commercial
uaiions: therefore,
Kcsulvcd. That this Farriers' Xatlonnl
Congress urgently requests tho Incoming
uibnlnistraiion of the national government
lo speedily adopt all practicable ine'hmls
to obtain the concurrence ff u sinlieient
number of iinfluas to secure International
