PLOTS AGAINST ENGLAND.

The War In India Is Apparently A.
snmlng Serious Proportions.

London, Sept. 20.-—The fact that no
less than 10 batteries of horse and field
artillery have been ordered to embark
for India during the months of Septem-
ber and October is ,much commented
upon in military circles. Under ordi-
nary circumstances, the four batteries
now in India would have been relieved
this month. But these batteries have
been ordered to remain in India, and,
therefore, there will shortly be on the
frontier 14 batteries of artillery, a full
complement for an army corps.

As the British force now assembled
on the frontier is of ample strength tc
wipe out all visible resistance, the only
conclusion that can be reached in re-

 

gard to this dispatch of re-enforcements.

of artillery is that the authorities are
possessed Of information of a serious
character. ‘The intimation ju'st convey.
ed by the war office to the London com-
mercial agent of the ameer of Afghanis-
tan that no war material or machinerl
for the manufacture thereof will be a1-
Iowed to cross the frontier during the
present crisis, indicates that the Brit-
ish; government has by no means entire
confidence in the ameer’s fidelity, and
it is hinted the government has learned
that, while professing friendliness it
Great Britain, the ameer has been se-
cretly preparing for war.

Well informed circles are also dis-
cussing the story Of secret correspond»
ence between Russia and Afghanistan.
which is said to have fallen into the
hands of the British officials, and it is
further intimated that a widespread
plot, embracing the Beluchis and oth‘
ers, has been discovered. The truth or
otherwise of these stories will develoli
hereafter, but the fact remains that thé
large increase in the strength of the
British artillery in India ”not be in-
tended for use against the Afridis.

I,“ LEE TO RETURN TO CUBA.

President McKinley Induces Him to Again
Act as Consul General.

Washington, Sept. 20.—General Fitz
Hugh Lee, consul general to Cuba, had
a long consultation yesterday with the
president and Secretary Alger at the
White House by special appointment
General Lee carefully reviewed the sit-
uation in Cuba and explained at length
all points upon which either the presi-
dent or Secretary Alger asked for in-
formation. General Lee gave his own
views very freely to the president, but
,gfter the interview was very reticent
abOut the nature of the report he had
made.

He said the president had not given
him an outline of his policy. It is evi-
dent, however, that the president is
deeply impressed with the critical char-
acter of the situation in Cuba as de-
scribed by General‘Lee, as it is under-
etood ‘that at the conference he strong-
ly urged Consul General Lee, who was
anxious to retire, to ,retain his office at
least for the present and to return tc
Havana at his earliest convenience. As
it has been strongly intimated for sev-
eral months that ex—Congressman Al-
drich would succeed General Lee at _Ha-‘
yah‘a and that the l‘at'ter‘probablywouldl
not return, the president’s action is con
strued to mean that he thinks it inad-

 

 

'visable to make a change at this junc.

ture.

General Lee has left here for Coving
ton, Va., but before his departure ad-
mitted that he would return to Cuba
as soon as he had arranged his private
affairs, probably about the middle of
October. In private conversation with
close personal fricn'Zs. General Lee has
expressed lziirse‘f vigorously as to the
situati'n in Cuba end has been very em-
phatic in his condemnation of some 0]
General .eyl--'s methods. ‘

The Lynn hint: of Arroyo.

City of‘Mex'co, Sci fill—Orders have
been given to investigate the lynching

feeling and all other irritating symp-
toms.

Here’s what one of them says,ronly
one, but remember, there are others:

Mrs. A. M. Bedford,2-7 Stuart avenue,
Norwalk, says: “Several members of
my family have used the California Ca-
tarrh Cure,which was obtained at. Plais-
ted.’s drug store, and we all'think that.
it IS a fine medicine. I find it very
good to clear the head, and my daugh-
ter Grace has found it is invaluable in
curing headaches, from Which she has
sufiered for a long time, never having
found anything that benefited her as
this has done. My husband has also
used it for catarrh in the head and
thuoat, and we are all willing to speak
a. good word for C. C. C., for we know
it is good. ”

Si] 1533 THE COURT.
Kansas Town Tells It. That. It Cannot
Compel Taxes to Be Levied.
Topeka, Sept. 21.—T'he little city of
Erie, in Neosho county, in return to an

 

 

alternative writ of mandamus filed in
the supreme court, suggests that the
supreme court of Kansas ought to mind
its own business; Several years ago
David Wilson secured a judgment
against the town for $5,000. He was
never able to collect it, and when he
died C. J. Phelps, as administrator, en-
deavored to collect the amount. Other
means failing, Phelps began a proceed-
ing in mandumus in the supreme court
to require the mayor and the city coun-
cil to appropriate the money. The court
issued an alternative writ and gave the
city until Saturday to pay the judg-
ment. Instead City Attorney C. A. Cox
has replied to the supreme court al-
leging that the city has already levied
all the taxes allowed by law, that it has
scarcelysenough to pay its regular ex-
penses, and closes with this remarkable
statement:

“That the court from which said writ
issues has no taxing powers con-
ferred upon it by law and can impart
none to said defendants as mayor and
council of said city of Erie and has
[no jurisdiction to coerce the levy of
taxes specified in the mandate.”
