WASHINGTON, July 27.—According to | a bulletin issued by the Census Bureau | to-day there are 5809 farms in Arizona, with a tolal acreage of 1,935,327 acres, of | | which 25 are improved. Of these | farms, 1769 are owned by Indians. In 18% there were only 14,128 acres of improved lands in the Territory.

Thirty ‘Thousand Uniformed Men Will Appear in Parade. LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 21.—A period of one month remains before the opening of the twenty-eighth Triennial Conclave of the Knights Templar of the United States, to be held in this city August 27 to 30, in- clusive. Over 1000 cities and towns in the TUnion have one or more subordinate com- manderies, with’ a total membership of 125,000 Knights, and all will be represented either through individual delegations or through the grand bodies of the respec- tive States. According to contracts made for quar=; ters to date, Templar visitors will be present from the following States: Ala- bama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Flor- ida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, In- dian Territory, Kansas, Kentucky, Louis- iana, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, | Rhode Island, Michigan, Minnesota, Mis- sissippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, North _Carolind, Ohig, Pennsylvania, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Ver- mont, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Idaho, South Carolina, Louisville has made ample preparations for the reception of the great white- plumed army and the tens of thousands | of other visitors that will be brought with it. A citizens’ committee has raised a fund of $100,000 for the entertainment of | the city’s guests. Particular attention is to be paid to the subject of the decoration and fllumination of the city, the sum of $50,000 being expended in this manner alone. A quadruple electric arch is to be the most noteworthy feature. This struct- ure is now in course of erection at the in- tersection of Fourth avenue and Broad- way. The week of the conclave will be one of rare attractions. The State’'s reputation for hospitality is to be maintained at the Louisyille Custom-house, _where the Grand Commandery of Kentucky will have headquarters. Attractians are con- tinually being added to the week’s pro- gramme so that it is impossible to an- nounce the complete scheduie at this date. Divine services will be conducted on Sun- day afternoon, August E. Church South by the Rev. J. C. W. Coxe, D.D., of Washington, Iowa, grand prelate of the Grand Encampment. An es- cort committee of 700 Kentucky Knights will be on duty from Saturday until Tues- day morning. All incoming delegations will be met at the railway stations and escorted by uniformed Templars with bands of music to their stopping place. On Monday evening the Kentucky Grand Commandery headquarters will be opened. Tuesday morning the conclave proper will be inaugurated with the grand parade. In- | dications point to the appearance of 30,000 uniformed Knights Tempiar and 125 bands of music in the procession. The route of the parade covers the handsomest and broadest thoroughfares in the city. On| Tuesday evening a monster lawn fete will the Masonic Widows’ and Orphans’ Home, a fireworks exnibition ac- companying this feature. The same even- ing a chorus «f 200 negro voices, under the direction of Colonel Will 8. Hays, will give an entertainment at the Horse Show building. The second day of the conclave will be devoted to the competitive drills. Five magnificent sterling silver trophies, val- ucd at §5000, are to be awarded as prize Not since the triennial of 1883, at Francisco, have the Knights Templar held a similar contest. There will be two divisions in the drills—one for . infantry corps and one for mounted troops. Nine of the crack drill teams of the country are entered, as follows: Infantry Divi- \\'ashington D. C.; Cavalry—No, 3, Han:elmann No. at Broadway M. [} Allegheny, Pa., No. Parkersburg, W. Va.; 16, Cincinnati; St. Bernard, No. 35, Chi- cago; Colorado No. 1, Denver; Golden Gate No. 16, San Francisco. Mounted Division—Mount Vernon I\o 1, Columbus, Ohio, and California No. San Fran- cisco. In connection Mzh the drills | twenty-seven Kentucky belles will appear as sponsors for the Sir Knights entered in the contests. The conclave ball will take place Thurs- { day evening at Confederate Hall, a great { bullding that will accommodate 15,000 dancers at one time. This function bids fair to surp: in brilliancy any social event ever given in the South. HORSE SALE BEFORE RACES. Property of the “Beards Disposed Of at Brighton Beach. NEW YORK, July 27.—Prince of Mel- bourne, who had a practical walkover for the Brighton cup at Brighton Beach to-day, was sold at auction in the selling paddock previous to to-day's.races for $20,500. ~G. Walbaum got him at that price after a spirited bidding contest with R. T. Wilson Jr. He was sold with the other horses of the estate of F. D. and J. R. Beard. The majority of the horses were bought in, but J. H. McCormack got Sir Hubert for $1600 and won him out in the Leopardstown steeplechase an hour later, the purse alone being equal to the pur- chase price;, while he was at the lucrative price of 9 to 2 in the betting. The sale, which included a number of horses of various owners, including Handwork and Rochester, was fairly satisfactory. The detail follows: Property of the Beard estate: Prince of Mel- bourne, ch. c., 4, by Bramble-Maid of Malgo- wan, G. Walbaum, $20,500. Charagrace, b. g., 6, by imp. Charaux-Young Grace, E. Lewls, $5500. Marylander, E. Lewis, $1500. Sir Hubert, J. H. McCormack, $1600. Beggar Lady, E. Lewis, §1800. The Driver, E. Lewis, $3000. Cap- tain January, C. P. Fisher, $1100. Property of Rogers & Rose: C. McCormack, $3500. Property of Mrs. Lombre, R. R. Plum, $3 Rochester, R. R. Rice, $2600. Humboldt, J. A. Bennett, $1100. —_—— Sons of St. George. The smoker that was given by Pickwick Lodge of the Sons of St. George,on the 15th of July in Red Men’s Hall was fairly well attended. After the routine business ‘W. R. Whyte, the president, became mas- ter of ceremonies and there was given a very entertaining J)rogramme consisting of recitations, readings, vocal selections, instrumental music and story telling. These_were contributed by Messrs. Ger- rans, McKenz.e, Mossmeyer Klien, Prior, Carles, Nowlaa, R.J. Fenn and Dr. Sykes. During the evening the lodge was hon- ored with-the presence of the grand and vice grand president of the order, Pacific Coast jurisdiction. Burnaby Lodge also mustered a large number of its members. The programme, which included many laughable numbers, was one of the best ever presented by Pickwick Lodge. A feature was Mr. Klein's performance on two instrumenis, which .so delighted the audience that he was encored three times. B —— Daughters of Liberty. On the night of the 10th inst. the re- tiring officers of California Council of the Daughters of Liberty were tendered a banquet by the council in appreciation of faithful work during the term just closed. During the evening Miss Nettie McCul- lough, on behalf of the council, presented to Miss Emily Lewis, who had served two successive terms as councllor, a valuable emblematic jewel as a token of fraternal affection and gratitude for the services she rendered the association. The past term of the council was a most successful one, numerically and financialiy. Repor(s from all parts of the jurisdic- tlo{ll 80 to show that the order is doing well. Handwork, J. R. Roche: —————— Pardons Former Bank President. ‘WASHINGTON, July 27.—The President has granted a pardon to John F.

Berlin Papers Comment | Railroad Disasters Cause on the New Tariff Schedulga. Liberals Convinced That the Socialists Are Bene- fited. | . BERLIN, July 27.—All the morning pa- pers devote much space to the tariff bill. The majority of the Conservative papers | give the provisions of the bill, with little discussion thereof, the tcne of which, however, is that the duties have been only moderately increased, and not so much so as the agriculturists desired, but that Count von Bulow, the Imperial Chancel- lor, did his best. The Deutsch Tages Zeitung considers the increase in duties set forth in the bill to be moderate and that foreign countries will breathe. more freely since its publication. The Post praises the wise moderation of the bill, which, it says, renders it_ac- ceptable abroad and at home. The Post 1nterprfts the eighth paragraph as direct- ed against the Lnited States, and says: It gives us the means to protect ourselves | against the high-handed manner in which the United States internrets reclprocity. We are decidedly discriminated against under present conditions. We were weaponless against such leonine treatment in tariff matters because Caprivi (the late former German Imperial | Chancellor) literally threw away the most fa- | vored nation treatment. ' This new tariff shows a .determination to Insure ourselves a place in the sun in tariff matters and we ex- pect German manufacturers to agree thereto, since many have suffered from the supercili- ousness of Americans in tariff treatment. ‘With regard to paragraph eight of the | bill, the best argument for convincing for- eign countries of the value of commercial treaties with Germany, the Liberal papers emphasize the fact that this tariff bill comes at a time when Germgn industries are already In the throes of a severe cri- sis, and that it can only cause new con- vulsion in the industrial life. These pa- pers express the fear that the United States will adopt reprisals upon German shipping, and they also point out that Germany’s allies, Austria and Italy, must lose a large part of their German trade. Even moderate papers like the National Zeitung confess that their worst fears about concessions to_ the agrarians are not only confirmed, but excceded. The National Zeitung points out that the agrarians gain great advantages besides those resulting from high duties through the abolition of the present bonded ware- house privileges on grain and the abolition of the bill requiring cash payment of du- ties or 4 per cent interest thereon. Some of the German papers interpret the North German Gazetle's inspired statement to the effect that the bill is only tentative and that the Keichstag and Bundesrath may change it as meaning that the Gov- ernment wishes modera ion in agricultural | duties. All sizns indicate that a heated agitation against the oill will break out throughout the country. The Liberal papers say the bill can only make Socjalist votes, and in this connec- tion ‘these papers point out thé most re- cent evidence of the growth of Socialism | in the results of two bye-elections held in the Memel district, in which the Conser- vatives lost about 2000 votes as against their majcrity of 1898, while the Socialists gained about the same number. In the Duesberg-Ruhrort district in the elections held July 25 the Socialists polled 14,000 votes, this being a gain of 100 per cent in the last three years. The Deutsch Tages Zeitung opens war upon the tariff bill and declares: The grain duties are insufficient. The duty on tobacco must be increased and potatoes must be protected. Every exertion must be made to transform this wholly inadequate tariff into an effective protection for domestic interests and the Government must yleld to the full agricultural demands when the farmers declare “‘Klipp and Klarr” in the Reichstag what duties the agriculturists need to exist. The German newspapers have printed lengthy reports of the address of Dr. Rob- ert Koch before the British congress on | tuberculosis, held in London this week, but few opinions on Dr. Koch’s address have been expressed. Professor Virchow, the well-known sclentist. after having dis- sented at a meeting of the medical society | from Dr. Koch's expressions in London, has expressed still stronger dissent from these views in an interview, in which he said: T am emphatically against Dr. Koch's deduc- He ignores everything we owe to the igations and exveriments of the Copen- hagen school. The commission of the Danish Government _conducted the most thorough ex- periments, the results of which are most flatly contradicted by Dr. Koch. You cannot say “Rome has spoken’” becausé Dr. Koch is not Rome and the matter is far from being set- t The celebration at Bayreulh of the quar- ter-centennial anniversary of the erection of the Wagnerian Theater awakens much interest. the “Walkyrie™ thusiasm, especially for Herr Krauss in his interpretation of the part of Sigmund. Such applause had never before been heard in Bayreuth. Herr Niemann rushed on the stage and Kissed Krauss. The or- chestra was conducted by Herr Richter, and Mme. Patti was present at the per- formaace. DECLINES TO ACCEPT THE THEOV OF KOCH Tormer Veterinarian Gresswell - of Colorado Speaks of Bovine and Human Tuberculosis. DENVER, July 27.—Dr. Charles Gress- well, formerly State Veterinarian of Col- orado and at present chairman of the National Livestock Association, does not readily accept as correct the statement of Dr. Koch that bovine and human tuber- culosis are not intercommunicable. In a letter addressed to President John ‘W. Springer of the National Livestock Association to-Gay, and made public by the latter, Dr. Gresswell calls attention to the fact that cattlemen, if Dr. Koch's statement is accepted as correct, will de- mand the suspens'on of ,the tuberculin test now in use to preven. the sale of cattle afflicted with _tuberculosis. He asserts that this woull cause a rapid reversion of the old-time prevalence of the tuber- culin diseases, which, he says, there is no question these repressive measures have diminished. He maintains that the evi- dence for and against should be very ¥ carefully weighed and final judgment sus- pended until a corroboration of Dr. Koch's results have been obtained by other ob- servers.
