She ald that she had made some serious mistakes last fall by leaving her school work -to do work for a_publisting house and engage In politics. She sald that she had risked all that she had and had lost. Mrs. Notson said that shz had tried to man- age well, but that since August 1, she had risked too much, had banked on uncertain- ties and had been left. Sho sald that she could have discharged her indebtedness in four or five years, but that her creditors had shown no inclhation to be lenient with her. She asked God to forgive her the dread- ful step she was about to take, and sald that she was weary of life and would take her darling chiliren with her, rather than leave them to the mercies of a cold world. She thanked the friends who had helped her and hoped that no one would suffer because of her rash act. She asked forgiveness, and dated the letter at 8 o'clock Friday evening. The Informant of The Bee said that all of the papers had been turned over to John Rush, Who would follow out the woman's last wishes.. He has her last will and testa- ment, which she made several months ago, Just before submitting to a dangerous surgi- cal operation. After learning of the contents of the let- ter, the relatives of Mrs. Notson doubled their efforts in dragging the river, and to- day the searching party will be largely rein- forced, The contents of the papers which have been turned over fo far. Rush will be made public In a few days, but at present he will make no statement concerning them. REWARD OFFERED FOR THE BODY. Mrs. Notson's father, C. B. Cook, arrived at home last evening about dark and was all worn out with his efforts to recoveér the bodies of his daughter and grandchildren. He sald that during the past few days he had scarched every foot of the river's bottom from! Gibson - fo- the. mouth. of the South sewar, and that he wis going to cofi- tinué Hhe search today, He Is organizing a party to put in the next Week searching along the river. Last night he had a number of placards printed offering $50 reward for the Tecovery of the bodles, He describes Mrs. Notson as belng a blonde, with' light brown hair, hazel eyes, about five feet nine inches 4 P tall, and weighing about 140 pounds. She was dressed In a dark woolen skirt, with a terra cotta walst, puffed sleev and trimmed with bead ornaments. She wore a black fall cloak with a cape, neither of which werg lined. The children are Dora, aged 6 years, and Willle, aged 6. The family of the missing woman are pos- dtive that she has committed suicide, and sald that the contents of the letter were cor- rectly reported, but that they had not yet Intended to make them public. Mr. Cook sald last night that he was confident that he would soon find the body. Mrs. Cook Is prostrated with grief since finding the letter, and has given up hopes of ever seelng her daughter again.

The treaties have virtually all been abrogated by force of circumstances and by the ac- tions of the Indians themselves.

Baker Shows Up tho Absurdity of the German Complalnt CHICAGO, Dec. 15.—In reply to the in- quiry as to what reliance is to be placed in the charges that the meat inspection of the United States is Inadequate, and that the imposition of restrictions was made in con- sequence, Mr. Charles’ W. Baker, secretary of the National Live Stock exchange, says that he Is authorized to say by others in a position best to know that the governmental inspection’ of livé stock and meat products for exportation Is up to a very high standard, and is more thorough than ever before known. The following extracts taken from the report of the secretary of agriculture for 1894 show what Is being accomplished. *The most effective work rendered by the depart- ment of animal industry to the commercial interests of this country during the past fiscal year has been In thé. inspection of meat for the export and Interstate trade. At forty- six abbatoirs situated in seventeen cities the number of animals inspected has In- creased from 4,485,583 in 1893 to 12,944,066 fn 1894. The amount of pork microscopically examined for export during the.year: was 35,437,937, poupds, -but in the -year 1893 it was‘only 20,677,410 pounds; in.1894 1,372,410 pleces from as many different carcasses have been microscopically examined under the direction of this bureau. Governmental inspection of live stock is 80 satisfactory to the foreign insurance com- panies, who insure against mortality, that they have reduced thelr premiums on cattle as follows: Five years ago it was"$10 per head; three years ago, $6 per head; two years ago, $1.80 per head. Now such instrrance is placed in foreign companies at 62% ‘cents to 75 cents per head. The risk from’ common causes {8 now the same as it was five years ago, consequently this reduction by foreign companies in the premium is owing to the impartial, systematic, scientific, “thorough governmental inspection, which precludes the possibllity of shipping any but “perfectly healthy stock. For the past flve years there has never been a pound of animal food product. that has been inspected by our goverriment re- jected by any foreign country until a week ago last Monday, when Germany claimed to have found trichinae in our pork. Live cat- tle also have been exported after inspection, and have been of such a high standard as to quality and health that no animal has been rejected by all the forelgn governments until o few weeks ago, when Germany pretended to find Texas fever among .some cattle. Texas fever has not been known among our cattle for many yea SECRET PROYE TIVE SOCIETY, Extraordinary Story Told at a Trial of Whitecappers in Georgia. ATLANTA, Ga., Dec. 15.—In the trial of the Whitfleld county whitecappers here evl- dence of a highly sensational nature was glven by one of the witnesses, The case on trial is that of the United States against C. C. Brown, Berry Turner and Willlam Calla- han. The witness who furnished the sens tion Mr. C. F. Ogle, a well known citi- zen of Tilton. Mr. Ogle said that in the spring of 1892 he met a crowd of men in an old barn at Tilton to form an organization for mutual protection. He had been advised to join it because he would be safer inside than outside of it. Among those presen were J. P. Joyce, constable; Alfred Whitner, Lorenzo Harris, Jim Townsend, Tom Hayes, W. A. Adams. Three weeks ago he met the same crowd several miles from Tilton for the purpose of clecting officers. The officers elected were: Charles Brown, cap- tain; W. L. Brown, Tleutenant, and Green Tredway, Rufus Greer, W. G. Griggs and Frank Morgan, referees. All of these men were present at the meeting, and W. L. Brown, a Methodist preacher, was also pres- ent. In talking with other men in Whit- fleld county he found that they were mem- bers. The witness then told the court that Green Tredway and Mr. Paul Trammel, United States revenue collector for the Northern -district of Georgla, Mr. Trammel Starr, state senator from that district, Rep- resentative Longley, Mr. Martin of ‘the firm of Jones & Martin, lawyers, and Mr. John Black, mayor of Dalton, were members of the organization and would protect any of them who got Into trouble or were in tho state courts. The story is not believed here, Collector Trammel and Mr. Starr both laughed at the statement. “Why, it 15 well known," sald Mr. Tram- mel, “that both Mr. Starr and myself have been very active to suppress lawlessness in that part of the state, The charge is ridicu- lous and there is mot one word of truth in it g St Y Petition of Cuban Sugar Men. WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.—Consul General Willlams, at Havana, has submitted to the State departinent a published account of the proceedings of a meeting of the Cuban sugar manufacturers and cane growers, convoked by the board of planters for the purpose of addressing the Spanish Parliament upon the subject of internal reforms. The meeting resulted fu the e:nding of the following cablegram, through the governor general, to minister for the cofonfes at Madrld The sugar manufacturers and cane growers assembled in mass mecting petition your ex- cellency for the immediate abolition of the | manufacturing tax, together with the lead- Ing duty on sugar and mol thelr burdansome: ask you therefore o make stromg recom- mondation to Parllament on the petition for reforms indispensable to the life of this coun- try," which are set forth o the resslutions adepted.

JAMESTOWN, N. Y, Dec Mrs. James Winslow Shearman and her daugh- ter, Mrs, Clinton Davis, who lived on a farm near here, were ' mur- dered by unknown people today, Mr. Shearman was absent during the forefoon and part of the afternoon, and when he re- turned home about 4 o'clock he was horri- fied to find his wife and dead in the house. There is no clew to the perpetrators of the crime, although it is ap- arent that the motive was robbery, for the house was in confusion, bureau drawers having been ransacked, as if a search’ for money had been carried on. ilen Rock.
