ROOSEVELT S ACCEPTANCE. D*clarp> tlie Itepnbllcun I'ollcy Wm KstnMinlied toy Jefferson. Oyster Bay, L. 1., Sept. 17. —The let ter of acceptance of Theodore Roo«e --velt accepting the Republican nomina tion for vice president is a document of over 4,000 words, devoted mainly to the Philippines question. He ap peals to "all good citizens who are far sighted enough to see what the honor and interest of the nation demand." After asserting that the re-election of President MeKinK-y is "of vital import ance to thf whole country," thut to put into practice thf principles of the Kan sas City platform would mean grave dis aster to the nation, Shat the policy of 16 to 1 is with destruction to every honu in U » land, and thut men who refuse to make the financial issuij paramount have no tx asure of self gov ernment than Jefferson originally gava Louisiana. We are making no new departure. Wo are not taking a single step which in any way affects our institutions or our tra ditional polli ies. From the beginning we have given widely varying degrees of self government to the different territories, according to their needs. The simple truth is that there is nothing even re motely resembling "imperialism" or "militarism" involved in the present de velopment of that policy of expansion which has been put of the history of America from the day when she became a ifhtlon. The words mean absolutely nothing as applied to our present policy In the Philippines, for this policy is only imperialistic in the sense that Jefferson's policy in Louisiana was imperialistic; only military in the sense that Jackson's policy toward the Seminoles or Custer's toward the Sioux embodied militarism, and there is no more danger of its pro ducing evil r alts at home now than thi re was of its interfering with freedom under Jeffei >a or Jackson, or in the days of the Indian wars on the plains. Our army Is relatively not as large as it was in the days of Wayne; we have not one regular for every thousand In habitant. There is no more danger of a draft than there is of the reintroduction of slavery. It must be remembered always that gov erning these islands in the interest of the inhabitants may not necessarily be to govern them as the inhabitants at tha moment prefer. To grant self govern ment to Luzon under Aguinaldo would be like granting self government to an Apache reservation under some local chief. Fell T«c> Hundred I'eet to Death. Pottsville.

KRI'UHR VIRTUALLY A PRISONER. r,„« iVrmitti 'l ti» Tranmict Trnnnvanl IluaiueNM on lNirttiwne.se Territory. London, Sept. 15. —According to the Lourenzo Marques correspondent of The Daily Telegraph Mr. Kruger is virtually a prisoner in the residence of the district governor. This is at the instance of the British consul, who protested against Mr. Kruger using Portuguese territory as a base for di recting his executive. The French consul has been forbid den access to Mr. Kruger, as have also the latter's own officials. The district governor has notified Herr Pott, the Netherlands consul, that he (Pott), who had acted as the Boer consular agent at Lourenzo Marques, can no longer be recognized as a rep resentative of the Transvaal, which is now British territory. "I have had an interview with the American attache, who is homeward bound," says the correspondent, "and he is of the poinion that hostilities may drag on for a considerable time, as the Boers in their despair threaten to fight to the death. "Acting President Schalk-Burger ar rived here yesterday to confer with Mr. Kruger, but he was not permitted to see him, and he returned immedi ately to the Transvaal." The imperial government, says the Cape Town correspondent of The Standard, "intends at an early date to declare a state of peace in South Af rica and to issue a proclamation that Boers refusing to lay down their arms will be treated as outlaws." Maher Outclassed Jefford. Philadelphia, Sept. 15.—Peter Maher, of this city, completely outclassed Jim Jefford, of California, in two rounds of what was to have been a six round fight at the Penn Art club last night. At no stage of the fight did the Cali fornian show any cleverness. Maher scored his first knockdown in the first round with a left on the jaw. Jefford was evidently weak at the end of the round, and when he met the Irishman in the second round Maher went at him hammer and tongs, securing three knockdowns in quick succession. It was evident that Jefford could not stand another punch, and although he made every effort to get to his feet the referee stopped the fight. American* Defeat World'* Cyclist*.

In poisoning occasioned by poison ivy or oak the skin becomes red, swollen, | hot and irritable, with intense itching and burning. As the poison is due to a | volatile acid a solution of baking soda or saleratus may be used or, still bet ter, strong soap suds. Later dry starch dusted over the affected part is benefi cial. Poisonous mushrooms cause colic, vomiting, dilated pupils and muscular weakness. An emetic of hot water and mustard should be given at once. Lat er a tablespoonful of castor oil and stimulants, together with applied beat. The symptoms usually occur within an hour. When a person has been bitten by a snake, the wound should be immediate ly applied to the mouth and the poison removed by suction. It is believed the venom has no effect upon the mouth unless cuts and abrasions are present. The treatment of a wound caused by the bite of a dog is substantially the same. Wounds caused by tarantulas, centi pedes, spiders, bees, wasps and other Insects are rarely dangerous. The lo cal application of bicarbonate of soda generally relieves the pain at once.

Washington, Sep:. 15. —There were no developments in the Chinese nego tiations yesterday with which the pub lic could be mnde acquainted, the whole matter being still in the diplo matic phase, and therefore not call ing for military orders. War depart ment officials are awaiting word from the state deparment as to the next step expected of the troops, but it is now intimated that (his next step will not be taken immediately. The situation has lost something of its aeuteness, owing to the change in the attitude of the Russian government. No official confirmation has reached Washington of the postponement of the withdrawal, but the fact is not doubted here. Re gardless, however, of the course to be taken by Russia, it is now said that there is nothing in the American note of response to Russia that demands an immediate evacuation in the event that the Russian troops are called away. Instead, it is stated that the control of the situation would simply pass from the state department into Gen. Chaffee's hands, and it would be for him, after conferring with the other military commanders, to deter mine how and to what extent the American forces should be withdrawn.
