HOWLING BLIZZARD
SWEPVWYOMING
Mercury Tumbles io 25 De
grees Below.
HEAVIEST SNOW EVER KNOWN.
In Some Places the Fall is Twenty Feet
Deep—Stockmen Apprehensive of
Great Loss Among Sheep and Cattle
on Account of Cold.
Cheyenne, Wyo., Feb. 14. —The bliz
zard which has been raging over south
ern Wyoming for the past three days
is over, but has been followed by
weather so intensely cold that fitgfk,
raisers, especially sheepmen, are very
apprehensive.
In Gillette it is reported that stock
men expect heavy losses due to the
severe cold. Since the storm passed
the mercury has fallen below zero all
over the state, and in some sections
hae dropped as low as 25 degrees be
low.
In the neighborhood of Laramie, the
Northern Pacific is experiencing great
difficulty in operating trala<; as the
snow has drifted badly. A report
from Dillon states that snow covers
the ground there in places to a depth
of 20 feet. It required one party 12
days to make a round trip of 15 miles
with horses and sleds. The snowfall
is the heaviest in the recollection of
the oldest inhabitants.
EMIR OF KANO IN FLIGHT.
Powerful Mohammedan Ruler Defeat
ed By British Expedition.
-London, Feb. 14.—Advices received
here today from Nigeria say that the
British punitive expedition commanded
by Colfcel Morland and consisting
of 1,200 men belonging to West Af
rican frontier forces, occupied Kano
Feb. 1, after sharp fighting. Only two
British officers were wounded The
enemy lost heavily, but the city was
uninjured. The emir of Kano fled to
Sokoto.
An official dispatch to the colonial
office adds that 12 of the British rank
and file were wounded and that 300 of
the enemy,were killed. The emir wm
accompanied in his flight by I,o™
Iwsemen.
Whe expedition was fitted out early
in* January in consequence of thd
menacing attitude of the emir of Kano,
a powerful Mohammedan ruler of Ni-‘
geria, who had placed a price on the
head of Captain Abadie, the British
resident at Zaria, capital of Zeg-Zeg,
in central Africa.
“WILL LIVE 100 YEARS.”
Remarkable Vitality of Pope Leo—Tru
ly a Phenomenon.
New York, Feb. 14. —The Tagblatt
publishes a most remarkable inter
view, which its Rome '■correspondent
had with the pope’s physician. Profes
sor Mazzoni, regarding his holiness’
health, says The Herald’s Berlin corre
spondent.
“What, the pope ill?” laughed the
professor. “He is so well that we
might envy him. jgxcept for a slight
hoarseness, which was easily cured,
nothing has ailed Leo XIII these last
two years.
.“He is truly a phenomenon. He
grows older in years, but, paradoxical
as it may seem, he appears to gain in
vigor each year. Mark my words,
the pope will live to be a hundred
years old and longer, and even then
he will enjoy life as he does today.
Really, one can hardly believe that
Leo XIII should ever die.”
DISCIPLE OF MRS. NATION.
Miss Blanche Boise Smashes Windows
of Topeka Saloons.
Topeka, Kans., Feb. 14.—Plateglass
window fronts of four of the finest
Kansas avenue saloons and two drug
stores were smashed in bits at an
early hour this morning with an ax
in the hands of Miss Blanche Boise,
a disciple of Mrs. Nation.
The smashing was done from the
sidewalk. The damage will amount
to hundreds of dollars.
Miss Boise achieved notority some
months ago by horsewhipping Mayor
Parker and was in raids in times
past with Mrs. Nation. She gave as
her excuse for her hatred of saloons
that Miquor luined her favorite broth
er. She was arrested and placed in
jail.
WIL LMAKE DASH TO ARCTIC.
Seminole To Try and Rescue Ice-Im
prisoned Fishermen.
St. Johns, N. F., Feb. 14.—Sturte
vant, the exec; ’’vs officer of the Unit
ed States revet ) cutter Seminole,
which is endeavoring to reach the ice
bound American schooners, returned
to Channel Harbor fror: Bay island
last night and reported that the pros
pect for the vessel reaching Bay island
was decidedly favorable. The Semi
nole started At daylight this morning
to make a dam, and hopes td Tover the
run within ten hours.
It is asserted here that the Seminole
is not suitable for ice work. Her hull
is pronounced to be too weak to con
tend with ice two feet thick. The of
fleers of the revenue cutter, however,
are sanguine of success.
Alabama River Falling.
Montgomery, Ala., Feb. 14.—The Al
abama river, which has been on a rise
in this section of the state for the last
few days, is slowly falling, and the

HEAD CRUSHED OFF.
Dr. Wakefield Meets Tragic Death at
Columbus, Ga.
Columbus, Ga., Feb. 13.—Dr. O. V/.
Wakefield, formerly a well known
druggist of thia city, but who of late
has been in the employ of the Vir
ginia-Carolina Chemical company, was
killed last night in the Central rail
road yards just north of the Eleventh
street culvert.
He was walking along the track, en
route home from his work, when kill
ed. The Central passenger train just
pulling out for Macon was coming
down on the track and a switch en
gine, pulling a number of cars, was
coming in the same direction, down a
parallel track. ,
Dr. Wakefield stepped to one side
to be out of danger from the switch
engine, and went so near, the pther
track that he was struck by the engine
of the passenger train, which knocked
him on the other track.
Only his head was on the track,
and the engine and nine freight cars
passed over it, grinding the head off.
The rest of the body was not mutilat
ed.
ACTIVITY IN FERTILIZERS.
Farmers Are Preparing For Big Cot
ton Crop;
Charleston, A. C., Feb. 13. —The
movement of fertilizers from the fac
tories of Charleston, which has al
ready begun, promises to be the heav
iest on record. According to the
estimates made by the railroads, on
figures furnished by the mill# the out
put will amount to more than 400,000
tons. This will require at least 25,-
000 cars. With the present car short
age and the general congestion the
freight agents are worried about the
conditions, as the business is such
that it has to be handled without de
lay.
Thus far, however, the railroads
have been giving the best service pos
sible. They are unable to provide
cars as rapidly as last season. It is
simply a question of cars, and the buy
ers are appreciating this fact The
fertilizer dealers think that from the
heavy demand the farmers are prepar
ing for a larger cotton acreage than
for many years.
UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE,
test Brazilian Demands.
Bolivia Agrees to Accept Under Pro-
Lapaz, Bolivia, Feb. Bolivi
an government yesterday afternoon de
livered its reply to the ultimatum pre
sented by the Brazilian minister, Sen
or Santos Lisboa. Bolivia accepts un
conditionally, but under protest, all
the Brazilian demands. . The Bolivian
expedition, commanded by General
Pando, the president, will not cross lat
itude 10 degrees, 20 minutes, the south
ern boundary of the contested terri
tory. Therefore it is most improba
ble that any collision between the Bra
zilian and Bolivian forces will occur.
It is generally supposed here that the
Acre revolutionists will surrender their
arms to th* Brazilian troops immedi
ately.
POSTOFFICE BILU

Carnegie’s Private Trust Company.
New York, Feb. 13. —To aid him in
making his donations Andrew Carne
gie, The Herald says, has his own pri
vate trust company. It is called the
Home Trust company, but it does not
do a general trust business, although
it has the right to do so under the
general trust company law of New Jer
sey, where it was organized not long
ago. Now, when Mr. Carnegie wants
to make a gift he merely notifies the
head of his private trust company to
credit so-and-so such amount In bonds
of the Carnegie Steel company. The
stock is only SIOO,OOO, and Mr. Car
negie’s name does not appear among
the list of incorporators.
Mexico Removes Duty on Wheat
Mexico City, Feb. 13.—The order of
President Diaz temporarily removing
all duties on wheat has gone into ef
fect and will continjie until June 30
next. The wheat yield in Mexico last
season was smaller than the average
yield and since then the supply of na
tive wheat been growing less, so
It was decided to temporarily remove
the duty to irevent a general increase
in prices which would have worked
hardships to the poorer classes. This
move on the part of the president has
given general satisfaction.

Robert Cattlett, of Sevier county,

BLOCKADING FLEET
TO BE WITHDRAWN
Venezuelan Prot c h Signed
by the Allies.
AGREEMENTS ARE COMPLETED.
Preferential Treatment of the Alliea’
Claims Will Be Referred to The
Hague— Powers Notify Commanders
to Raise the Blockade. i
Washington, Feb. 14.—The British
protocol with Venezuela for raising '
of the blockade, and reference of the
matter of preferential treatment of
the allies’ claims to The Hague, baa ,
£eea signed. Germany and Italy have
also signed the Venezuelan protocols.
London, Feb. 14. —The Associated
Press is informed that instructions
have been telegraphed to the com
manders of the blockading squadrons
off Venezuela to withdraw their ships
in consequence es the agreement com
pleted at Washington. The block
ade, therefore; will be Immediately
raised.
Berlin, Feb. 14.—The government 4s
telegraphing instructions today for the
raising of the blockade of the Vene
zuelan coast immediately.
These instructions may not reach
all the blockading vessels today, but
it is expected that the blockade will
be fully raised by tomorrow or Mon
day, especially since Commodore
Scheder has been expecting such In
structions and had arranged for their
prompt transmission.
Two memoranda explaining the pro
tocol were signed by Minister Bowen.
The text of the first is as follows:
“As the imperial German govern
ment holds that the claims originat
ing from the Venezuelan civil wars
of 1898 to 1900 are no more apt to be
submitted to arbitration, the govern
ment of Venezuelan has to acknowl
edge at once these-'Claims, amounting
to 1,718,815 bolivars, approximately
$325,000, and either to pay such
amount in cash without any delay or,
should this be impossible, to guaran
tee the speedy payment .of them by
guarantees which are deemed suffi
cient by the imperial German govern
ment.”
The second explanatory document
reads:
“The conditions of the German gov
ernment having been accepted,
Bowen as representative of the Vene
zuelan government, will now have to
provide for the payment of the 1,718,-
815 bolivars mentioned under number
one of the conditions, or give an ade
quate guarantee for this amount.
Should Mr. Bowen choose the latter
way, the guaranty is to be specified
distinctly. For instance, in case of
the guaranty being based on the cus
toms revenues, as suggested by Mr.
Bowen, it would be necessary to state
exactly in which way the payment is
to take place out of these revenues.
The guaranty will have to be given de
facto and without delay.
“In the event of the five drafts
handed to Baron Speck von Stern
burg last night being defaulted, it 18
stipulated that Belgian customs offi
cials collect the revenues at once of
the Venezuelan ports in behalf of Ger
many.”
Foreign Secretary Von Richthofen
sent a message to Ambassador Tower
here at 6o’clock yesterday evening in
forming him that the protocol had been
signed during the evening, and express,
ing his pleasure at the happy result.
Chancellor Von Buelow and Baron Von
Richthofen both express satisfaction
and approval of the United States gov
ernment’s friendly attitude throughout
the episode. Baron Speck Von Stern,
burg, by direction of his government,
informs Secretary Hay in advance of
the character of any important propo
sal made to Mr. Bowen. In at least
two instances written memoranda of
Germany’s position were supplied to
the United States government.
Washington, Feb. 14. —In further ex.
planatloK. of the articles of the proto
cols signed last night by Mr. Bowen
and the representatives of the allies
here, the following addendum was pre
pared and duly signed by all the nego
tiators this morning:
“Our Interpretation of the protocols
is that the 30 per cent of the total in
come of the customs receipts of La-
Guayra and Puerto Cabello, shall be
gin to be set apart on the first day of
March, 1903, and continue to be set
apart throughout the said month, and
that the first payment will be due not
the first of March, but the first of
April, 1903. (Signed) Herbert Bow
en, Michael Herbert, E. Mayor Des
Frances, H. Sternberg.”

Ossinning, N. Y., Feb. 14.—Dr. Ir
vine, the prison physician at Sing Sing,
today examined William Hooper
Young who yesterday commenced hia
life sentence for the murder of Mrs.
Anna Pulitzer. The doctor found, as

tor said, was due to the excessive use

Jamaica Raise# Cattle Prohibition,
Kingston, Jamaica, Feb. 14.—The

the prohibition against the importation
of Canadian cattle. The order against
the importation of cattle from the
