Gray Eagle, the valuable horse owned
by Patton & Stikeleather, that was seri
ously injured by having a buggy shaft
run through hie hip several weeks ago,
was chloroformed last Monday. The
animal improved some after he was
hurt but laid down one day and broke
a blood vessel which caused serious com
plications. Mrs. M. F. Myers, secretary of the
Golden cross lodge at this place, has
just received a check for $2000, which
will be given to the widow of the de
ceased W. J. Hough, -who was a mem
ber of the society. The order is open to
both sexes and is rapidly growing in

the claim was paid is praiseworthy.

THE CHANCELLOR
DIPLOMATICALLY ILL
London, April 11. In spite of today's
announcement that the chancellor of
the exchequer, Sir Michiel Hicks-Beach,
is progressing so well it is not cer
tain he will be able to introduce the
Budget Monday next, there tare many
who believe another postponement is
likely to occur. It is openly said that
the indisposition of the chancellor of
the exchequer is more diplomatic than,
organic. Those who waited on Mr.
Chamberlain yesterday to discuss the
trade of the West Indies went, awav
with a strong impression, that the gov
ernment, even1 at this late date, Is not
definitely decided as to how to raise the
sum represented toy the enormous defic
it. Nevertheless, countless rumors re
garding the budget provisions continue
to circulate.
The Associated Press has good rea
son to believe that a tax wiH be im
posed on flour, while it is possible
some sort of duty may be placed
on wheaKv There Will be a duty
on petroleum, it is thought, but
this is- merely an Intelligent surmise,
as the budget proposals are guarded
with zealous secrecy, in order to avoid
the loss of revenue which would occur
owing to any (business interest taking
advantage of a premature leakage of
the last budget's' proposals. After
much consultation, the cabinet appears
to favor allotting the .West Indies a
lump sum to be divided among the
plantations in order to tide over the
period between now and the time when
the agremeht of the- Brussels . eusar
convention Jcomes into effeet. There is
considerable anxiety among the British
sugar trade to know whether the Unit
ed States will regard the bestowal of
a lump sum as being in. the light of a
subsidy and ' will , retaliate by imposing-
- a countervailing'- duty on " West 1 In
