WEEKLY WASHfNGTOIN LETTER
From Our Regular Correivondent.
. Washington, D. C, June 2, W.
More men, more blood, and more
money for the" Philippines. That is
the choeriul .outlooks. Mr. McKiri
ley has D"-BTmr'ebnvinced that
Agtunaldo Fuccessfully, played the
rule of brier fox in his dealings with
the blue coated and red-trousered
American civilian Commissioners,
by staving off active military, opera
tions against mm until the rainy
season, while he was preparing for
another campaign in the fall. He
has also become convinced that any
further delay of "the yolupteers in
the Philippines who -wish home
will.bedangerous. Convinced of these
two things there was nothing left for
hnn to do except to decide to issue
a call for the volunteers to go to the
Philippines, under authority of the
army act of the last Congress. ' He
has made that, decision, but, in
keeping with his usual custom of
giving the public an excuse for his
every important act, will defer issu
ing the call for volunteers until he
gets a cablegram - from Gen. Otis
saying that more men are jmpera
tively needed over there. It has
been found impossible to get any
considerable number of the volun
teers now in the Philippines to re
enlist, although each man who does
so is given travel pay amounting to
about $600.
Subscriptions to the Dewey Home
fund are comine in so slowly : that
daily statements are no longer issu
ed of the amounts received. .-
The administration is much wor
ried by the failure of th "Cuban
soldiers to surrender their arms and
accept the $75 per capita sent over
there for them. They had supposed
that the poor ragged devils would
jump at the chance of getting 175
apiece, - mora more money - than
probably three-fourths'of them ever
owned at one time in their lives.
They don't know what to make of
the refusal, but they fear that it
means trouble ot Borne ' tort, x and
their fears are likely to be true.
When the influences which weie
brought to bear in his favor were
considered, the case - with which
Henderson, of Iowa, knocked out
all the other condidates for Speaker
and made his own election certain
had nothing wonderful about it.
It was a simple case of cause and ef
fect' .The principal factor in his
speedy success was hi tip given out
by the administration in bis avor.
That tip was a little bit bit pooling
at first, because it had been under
stood that the administration- was
rather inclined to favor Sherman
when Reed's retirement first became
known. There were several reasons
for the transfer of the fayof of the
Adminipt ration from Sherman to
Henderson. Mr. McKinley was
jealous of the influence that Tom
Rexl nould have with Sherman,
wished to jolly the JVest by aiding
it to capture theSpeaker's chair who
rnnld not become a candidate for
President Henderson's birthplace
was Scotland- The great personal
popularity of Henderson made it
eaf'ei to engineer the stampede to
him than it would have liecn to any
other man who waa named as a
candidate. While one man in Con
gTea is a stringer a partia l, tfian
"Davw" HWeTOnynfT-man in
Cong. ess has fewer personal enemies
than he. What bis policy as Speak
er will be is yet to be ascertained.
As a member of Reed's committee
ou Rules he always helped to carry
out the TIh1 profTamme.
The most interesting lit aa poli
tic. J g-Wp of the wetk is that in

will give him a chance to pay off an
old score or to push , himself tq the
head of h(s party. Although this
is only a rumor, with the probabil
mes sirongiy against it, there Is
alarm in administration circles on
account of it. There is no doubt
that Mr. Reed could make a lot'of
trouble for the administration should
be set up as a free lance on the floor
of the House, as hei is known to be
opposed to the policy of the admin
istration on a number of important
questions. Mr. McKinley would
much sooner : have Reed in the
Speaker's chair, " where his party
responsibility would "act at a re -
straint, than to have him on the
floor armed with a club and looking
out for heads to crack,-1 with jio re -
.... ,
sponsibility to anything except his
constituents. This gossip is likely
to continue Mr. Reeds resigns as a
member of the House, which no-
body seems to know
when he wiil
do, if at all.
Boss Hanna is trying to enact the
role of the boy who has to be begged
to play. He says ho doesn't wish
to lemain at the head of the
repuo-
lican National Committee, during
next, year 's Campaign, because his
health, for which he has been order
ed Euroe, isn't 'whaE' it 'was, and
there is so much work attached to
the position that it allows him no op-
portunity to indulge in reerJatiin and
diversions;

might be forced upon him again, in
which case he would lake it, but he
wanted it known that he would do

throw a series of fits if he thought

Ex-Congressman Follet, of Ohio,
is sanguine that the democrats have
nioro than a fighting chance to car
ry thate this year. He said : "The
democrats of ; Ohio have solid
grounds for believing that they can
elect the Gov.'" this year. The re
volt among the republicans who dis
like Senator. Hanna and bis
methods, and who are dissatisfied
with the nomination of Judge Nash,
will split the republican party
asunder. In fact, the breech be
tween the factions is too wide to be
headed, and all talk of harmony is
for effect The ; Ohio democracy is
going' into this campaign united,
confident and enthusiastic, while the
opposition, conscious of the division
in its ranks, is timid ' and dubious

For once the cotton planter has
an ally among the great corpora

bagging combine and the compress
people have all lived off the cotton
growor.
There was no way to fight
them and so ' they grew rich on

I their enormous profits, which the
con-Ifarmeis had to t ay. Now the
American Cotton Company with its
Roundlap bale is in the field and ill
is so revolutionizing tno cotton

out The farmers inevitably get a
large share- of this saving, but the

and the trust are raising ' a great
connection against the American
Cotton Company as though they had
always been the friends of the farm

never played the friendly act before
and now the farmers doubt the sin
cerity of their repetance.
The Roundlap bale is the trade
mark name given by the American
Cotton Comvany to its round bale
to distinguish it from all other bales.
The cotton mills of New England
and of Europe are eager buyers of
this hale because as compared with
all other bales it has many ad van

which greatly lessen the cost of
manufacture ' to the mill. This
Roundlap bale eliminates two or
three processes in manufacturing
and as the cotton mills of the world
are willing to pay more for this cot-
ton than any other, it naturally fol
lows that to secure the highest prices
all southern cotton must in time be
put up in this Roundlap form. Mr.
Wm. C. Lovering, one of the most
distinguished cotton mill men Oi
New England says : .
"I do not hesitate to say that the

Isarroveaaeat on the Cwaaaara
: Methodl of ClarUteatloa.
' So' much interest ia manifested in
the making of sirup from sugar cane on
a small scale that the Alabama station
presents a report (bulletin 108) of ex
periments : in ' this direction, which
should attract especial attention on ac
count of the low price of the chief staple
crop and the consequent tendency of
the fanners to diversify their products
to a greater extent than heretofore.: A
stated in a previous bulletin (No. 66),
but little attention has been given, as
a rule, to the clarification or defecation
of sirups in this state, and In many
eases a considerable proportion of the
scums and suspended impurities is
boiled down with the sirup, darkening
its color, affecting its taste and making
its preservation more difficult, A satis
factory clarification of the juice not
only brightens the product very mate
rlally, but also effects the removal of a
large proportion of the albuminous
matters, whose" nreeence llavora. the
growth and action otTermentav-
It is slso of the greatest importance
that more attention be given to the
density to which the sirup has been
cooked, since in most cases-the sirup
boiler determines by the eye and in a
very crude way the point at which the
sirup should be drawn off.
In many cases the sirup Is cooked to
too thick a consistency, and as a conse
quenoe a crystallisation and deposition
of sugar take place, while, on the other
band, ir t&e sirup is not boiled to the
proper density, fermentation Is likely to
ensue, and the preservation of the sirup
becomes a more difficult problem.
When the ordinary-form of evapo-1
rater is at hand, the actual process of
evaporation can be conducted in the
usual manner, but the crude prelimi
nary system of clarification now in gen
eral use can be much improved by re
sorting to the sulphuring process.
in mis process ine juice iresn rrom
the mill is allowed to . run slowly
through a sulphuring box containing a
number of Inclined shelves, and, as tha
Juice trickles slowly down from shelf
to shelf. It meets with an ascending
current of sulphur fumes which are
produced by burning brimstone or roll
sulphur in a roughly constructed brick
furnace.
In this wsy the Juice is at once ren
dered lighter In color, and when heated
in the evaporator the separation of al
buminous matters and other impurities
is effected much more readily and rap
idly. After the beating of the Juice i
commenced the addition of a small
amount of milk of lime is frequently
found to facilitate the clarification and
renders the separation of scums more
Where the above process of clarifica
tion Is employed the resulting sirup is
much clearer and brighter, and at the
same time it can be preserved much
more readily. If it is desired to preserve
the sirup for a considerable period of
time, the hot liquid, concentrated to
the proper strength, is run into a bottle
cr a well glased Jug of from half a gallon
to one gallon capacity, which baa bean
rinsed out with not water. The vassal
la filled almost up to the month with
th hot sirup and to then securely
sealed and stored away for future ass.
By tbia process sirup ha been no-
eeeafnlly preserved at the laboratory for
from on to four years, and crystallisa
tion of sugar can also b prevented If
care Is taken to avoid cooking th sirup
to too great a density.

-1893 by 4he lateurm of Tatotfc Albright,-is still in the ring. - -There
is no insurance agency in North Carolina with better .
facilities for placing large lines of insurance, that can give low
er rales or better indemnity. Only first-class companies, in every
branch of the business, find a lodgement in my office. . With
I a practical experience of more than ten years, I feel warranted
I in soliciting a share of, the local patronage. I guarantee full
satisfaction in every instance. Correspondence - solicited upon
I all matters pertaining to insurance
' . I am making a specialty of Life Insurance and will make
it to the interest of all who desire protection for their families
i or their estates, or who wish to make absolutely safe and profit
able investment, to confer with me before giving . their applica
tions to other agents. ......... ....... .

'Authorities in the alkali soil cf the
west divide them into two classes i The
alkaline ' carbonate or - black . alkali
usually sodium carbonate) ih the worst
form, actually dissolving the organic
materials of the soil and corroding and
killing the germinating seed or root
of plants; the white alkalies, tb most
common of which are sodium sulphate,
sodium chloride, magnesium sulphate
and magnesium chloride ar not ' In
themselves poisonoos to plants, nor do
tbay attack the substance of the plant
root, but are Injurious when, owing to
their presence in excesslv amounts,
they prevent the plants from taking up
their needed food and water supply. ;
Tb amount of soluble salt which
plant can stand depends upon the char
acter of the salt, tb character of (be
soli and the kind of plant Bilgard
states that few plants can stand as
mnch aa .1 of 1 per cent of aodlam
carbonate or about 8,600 pounds per
sere to a depth of one foot ; of sodium
chlorid plant can stand about .90 of
1 par cent and of aodlam sulphate .49
to .60 of 1 per cent Plants can stand
less salt in aandy land than on heavy
clay or gumbo land. It I a well known
fact that crops also differ in their abili
ty to stand salt and many crop will
grow well upon soils on which others
will not Uv. -- - - ;

If thee strong colonies ar not sup
plied with additional space, they cer
tainly will swarm er attempt to swarm,
and tbia swarming fever has a bad ef
fect upon them, and tbey ar not likely
to soon forget it! bene w should be
very careful to provide for tbia la tloo
by beeping them supplied with accom
modations In tb way of room. Plenty
of spar a loo win not always prevent
swarming, but ia most case it will if
ws so to it early and continue proper

brood chambers may be regulated at
tb beginning of th honey flow by
crowding th bee and brood In tb

this kind win raoriv and occupy two
tiers of section boxes, or 48 bore ia aU.
