Van Houtcn, chairman of the committee appointed by the state horticultural society to act with the United States authorities in procuring fruit lor the exposition at Paris next year, has sent out a circular to the fruit growers of Iowa concerning information regarding the packing and shipping to the exposition, which will be begun in earnest in a short time. Deputy United States Marshal Van Der Vor has arrested J.

Cannon, at Emmetsburg, for failing to observe the United States revenue law. Cannon is ft "fat man" show who exhibited at Ft. Dodge during the street fair in that city. The law provides for a SIO revenue tax, and his failure to do this was noticed, at Algona. by Deputy Revenue Collector C.

The games committee of the Iowa Intercollegiate Athletic association met, considered the matter in full, and on a vote sustained its former action, which threw out Holland on the ground of professionalism.

This is unquestionably the end of the matter so far as the games committee is concerned. It leaves the championship with the State university, Grinnell second and Drake third. M. F. MeGaughey.

sou of Sheriff R. 0. MeGaughey. of Museatine, died after four days of intense suffering. While playing football he came in collision with another player, receiving a broken leg and ruptured lung.

He was widely known and a general favorite in the high school, from which he would have graduated this year. Advices from Fort Dodge state that the movement to induce President Me- Kinley to travel over the Illinois Central through Iowa, which is being engineered by Hon. D.

B. Henderson and Hon. J. P. Dolliver, seems to have met with success.

The plan has been to induce the president to take this route through Iowa on his way to Milwaukee. Every influence available has been brought to bear upon the prcsi- dent, with the result that Hon. J. P. Dolliver has received a telegram from Secretary Wilson, informing him that he thought the president would visit Fort Dodge, Waterloo and other towns on the Central.

The president will re- main over in Sioux City during Sunday, as he is averse to traveling on the Sabbath. L. H. Vallmar. son of a Methodist minister, of Corydon, was arrested at Omaha on the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses.

The offense which caused the young man's de- i tention is having obtained from a leading hotel the money on a worthless Bight draft drawn on Sulzeman, Seeley a business house of Hamilton, O. When the paper was presented for acceptance the firm asserted that Vallmar hod no connection with them, and that the draft was worthless. The amount of the draft was 850. Other transactions of a similar nature have been discovered by the police in looking up Yallmar's record. Two drafts for £35 and 815, drawn on J.

P. Vallmar. the young man's father, were cashed by Uartman, an Omaha cigar dealer. The drafts were at sight, and the father refused either to accept or cash them. Archie C.

Smith, who during the past two years has held the position of deputy secretary of state, bus tendered his resignation. When he accepted the office two years ago, Mr. Smith was one of the proprietors of the Storm Lake Pilot-Tribune. He bus retained his connection with the paper since removing to Des Moines, but has now come to the conclusion that he cannot afford to be longer absent from the immediate locality in which his business interests are centered. The position made vacant by the resignation of Mr.

Smith will be filled by D. A. Hites, who recently had charge of the land department' connected with the of state's "ttice. Ex-Governor Larrabec, the chairman of the state board of control, has announced his final determination under no circumstances to accept another appointment on the state board of control. This means that Governor Shaw must find a new man for the position, and that he must send the nomination lo the legislature before the close of the coining session in order to receive the senate's confirmation.

At tho time was appointed he distinctly a led that he would under 110 eircuni- remain after the expiration of his u-riu. but many had entertained the hope, until recently, that he would the board. Surveyors for the Milwaukee road are reported to be at work in tho vicinity of Gowrie surveying a route from Lchigh to Jefferson. It is xinderstood that the presence of the. surveyors at this point gives more than local color to the.

perennial railroad rumor that the Milwaukee is soon to assume control of the. Mason City Fort Dodge road, and by the building of a line from Lehig-h to Jefferson will thus have, a through route to Omaha. The celebration of the opening of the Chicago Great Western shops brought thousands of people to Oelwein. The coach shop, a vast room with capacity for 5.000 people, was used as on audience room, and a platform had been erected. A two hours' program of addresses and music was given.

Fred Falk, a young farmer of Poy- neer township, P.hick Hawk county, has been arrested charged with uttering a forged instrument.

The charge is of a serious character and was brought about by a complicated state of affairs, even to a legal mind, the instigator to the young man's crime being his mother. Falk was indebted to his mother in the sum of $2,200, which indebtedness was protected by the fact that the son owned 120 acres of land. Mrs. Falk. learned that her son had conveyed his property to MI-H.

Grace Williams, of Waterloo, and she, immediately instituted proceedings to protect her claim against her son. An attachment was sued out by her attorneys, Ijiu-us Stewart, but the young man' could not be found by Constable Muu- gcr, who was deputised by Sheriff Law, to make the service on him. In the meantime notes aggregating SSOl) turned up, which purported to be, instruments executed by Mrs. Falk. The latter denied the liability, and the discovery that the son forged the notes is alleged to have been made.

The Firat National bank, of Waterloo, is the victim of the forgery, and this institution began the. prosecution of the young farmer. Aaroii F.

DEWEY'S LOVING CUP. GIVEN A FLAG.

Presented to Him Dy Mayor Van VVyck at the City Hall. NEW YOUK, Oct. first ceremony of yesterday was the presentation at the city hull of the loving 1 cup to the admiral by Mayor Vim Wyek in behalf of the city. At 7 o'clock the police patrol bout Patrol, with the special reception committee on board, iue.luding Lev! P. Morton, Clmuncey M.

Depew and Richard Croker, started for the Olympia. The admiral boarded the Patrol, which steamed to the battery, where the city's guests were met by the reception committee and escorted by Squadron A and a detail of mounted police, proceeded up Broadway to the city hall. All along 1 the street were cheering crowds and city hall park was filled to the limit witix people, who shouted a noisy, enthusiastic welcome as Dewcv came in sight. Governor Uooso.vo.lt, Admirals Schley mid Philip, Captain Coghhm and the mayor arrived early and greeted Admiral Dewey most 'cordially when he reached the mayor's ollice. After the greetings the mayor began his speech presenting the city's loving cup.

The mayor said in part: "True dignity and manhood can never be overestimated in the study of the influences which build up or preserve the state. Hero worship, if it be merely a manifestation of full recognition and appreciation of such manhood in the individual leaders in the performance of duty to the state either in war or in peace, is most commendable. To such a hero death itself bows, for he lives in the memory of all time. In this spirit I shall not hesitate in this presence to freely express our estimate of your character and achievements. The nation would gladly have its dominion extended over the face of the globe in order that admiring millions of additional fellow citizens might be here to-day to pay homage to yon and welcome you back.

"Your countrymen are interested in you and know e'very detail of your life joys and your sorrows are theirs. They have traced your ancestry, your iharaoter and your deeds, from the rocked by a loving mother to the Olympia rocked by the rolling- waves of the mighty deep." The mayor then rapidly sketched the events of Dewey's life; his early interest in sea lighting, his service under Farragut in the gulf squadron during the civil war, the tight with the confederate ram Manassas; drew a comparison between Dewey and Farragut, both of whom, through long years of peace, devoted themselves to the study of their profession, so that when the time came when the country needed their services they were able to give splendid service. He then eulogized his mighty victory in Manila bay, concluding: "From your entry to your departure from Manila bay yoxi were a history maker; and if the' old style prevailed of naming the period after him who bore the most illustrious name of any living man, this period would be known as the Dewey age. Solitary in the grandeur of your achievements, you are lifted above all those who have gone before you." The mayor then in a few words presented the loving cup. Dewey in reply said: "It would be quite impossible for me to express in words how deeply am moved Ijy these honors, one after beautiful cup, the freedom of the city, this great and magnificent reception.

I cannot say what I want to. but speaking for myself and the gallant squadron I had the honor to command at Manila. 1 thank you from the bottom of my heart." "Come here, all of you captains," he continued, addressing the naval captains present. "Captain Lamberton. of the Olympia," he cried; "Captain Wildes, of the Boston; Captain Raleigh; Captain Dyer, of the Baltimore; Captain Wood, of the Petrel; Captain Walker, of the Concord; these are the men who should be thanked.

Without them I could have done nothing." The loving cup presented to the admiral is Roman in form, of eighteen karat gold, thirteen inches high, holds a quart and a half and cost S5.000. SONKKS SUKKEN'DKKKD. Trlhal Discord Among I'liilliipino Insurg- Revolt. MANILA, Oct. insurgent commission arrived from Angeles last evening and delivered up the fourteen American prisoners, all enlisted men.

It is reported from Iloilo that the Tagals arrested General Virayan, charging him with being a traitor. Tribal discord is growing. Many rebel soldiers have revolted and many European prisoners are escaping. The prisoners unanimously praised their treatment. One man said: "We have been given the best the country afforded, fine houses for quarters, servants, good food, plenty of wine and a monthly allowance.

Aguinaldo visited us and shook hands. Three of thit boys refused to shake, hands with him." from the stories of the prisoners they have been lionized by the people. They report that five survivors of Naval Cadet Wood's party, arrived at Tarlae Wednesday. Though small importance is attached to their judgment, they agree in saying thatj the Filipinos all say that they are "tired of the war, but will light for independence to the last." The released soldiers also say that the idea of independence has taken firm hold of the Filipinos and they threaten, if conquered, to exterminate the Americans by assassination. Aguinaldo seemed popular among all the people, the prisoners said.

The country, they say, is full of rich crops. RECEIVE THEIR MEDALS. Man IXicorutecl Kunblems of Appreciation. NKW YOKK, Sept. :t.10 men fought muter Dewey.

faded blue admiral's ensign, said to Admiral Dewey: "Admiral, 1 wish to present to you tho first admiral's flag ever 'broken out' in the navy of this country. That grand old admiral whose name and memory all revere first hoisted this ensign upon the good ship Hartford, before New Orleans, and afterwards upon the Franklin, and since it came down from that masthead it has never been whipped by whul or worn by the elements. Yon. the successor of that great admiral whose tact you so successfully followed a short time ago, I deem the proper person for Farragut's mantle to fall upon." Uowey was deeply affected and tears were in his eyes as lie gazed at the souvenir. It wns several moments before he could find his voice.

He finally said: fly I'll fly it at the masthead. I'll fly it in parades. I'll fly it always, when I strike my admiral's flag this will be the I will strike." This was about the most impressive scene that has occurred on the Olympia since her arrival, and for some time no one spoke. The Washingtoniaiis remained on board chatting with the admiral for an hour. WAK SITUK TO COMJB.

Fifteen of tho Scotsman's I'ortslicd.

MONTREAL, Quebec, Sept. hundred and fifty scantily clad, bag-gag-e bereft men, women children who were on board of an intercolonial special which steamed into Uonavcnture depot last night, comprised the greater number of those who sailed from Liverpool on September 14 on board the steamship bound for Montreal, which was wrecked on the shores of the Straits of Belle Isle at half past two on the morning of the 31st. It was not tale of shipwreck that they had to tell, but one of death, suffering and pillage. For fifteen at least of the Scotsman's passengers perished; all suffered cruelly from cold and privation, and almost the worst horror of all, the men who were supposed to succor and assist those, committed to their care in the hour of need, turned on the helpless passengers and with loaded guns and revolvers compelled them to part with the few valuables saved. Captain Skrimshire and his officers were exceptions.

For the honor of the British merchant marine the crime may not be ascribed to tho men engaged in it, but to a gang of rats and hangers on, picked up on the docks at Liverpool to replace the usual crew of the Scotsman, which joined the seamen's strike on the other side.

The admiral was very nervous, lie said: "Of course, it would be needless for me to attempt to make a speech, but my heart appreciates all you have said. Ifow it is that you have overestimated iny work much I cannot understand. It is beyond anything I can conceive, of why there should bo such an uprising of the country.
