pedo boats and cruisers have gone
at full speed to the scene of the dis

British navy has suffered since the

Bosworth Smith, the Cobra' com
mander, stood upon the bridge with
his arms folded as Impassive as It on

CLEW TO CONSPIRACY.

Des Moines.
Tho much-discussed clew of the con
spiracy to assassinate President Me

found in Des Moines. Tho sus
picion that Czolgosz was but a tool
seems well founded in the light of in
formation disclosed In a letter found
-- -
on the person of a wounded prisoner.
an Anarchist living, in this city, who
persists in refusing to disclose his
name. Tho officers have him under
strict surveillance and escape Is im
possible. The letter taken from ills
person was mailed at Los Angeles
two weeks before President McKlnley
was shot. It contains two circular in
which are such expressions as "the
beast at the Buffalo Exposition," "Lin
coln's futo repeated," "Duty of every
Anarchist," "President's life," "Peo
ple periBh for lack of wisdom," "Pre
vention Is better than assuaging assas
sination;" Soelnlism, skulking out of
anarchy Into respectability, repudiates
the bullet," and others, including tho
word "Emma." presumably referring
to Emma Goldman. This much alone
has been deciphered from the strange
mlxturo of letters and numerals, but
the characters have not been trans
lated as yet, and perhaps cannot be
translated until some Anarchist takes
his life in his hands by turning trai
tor and furnishes the key.
CLOUDBURST AT AMERICUS.
Bridges Washed Away and a Number
of Cattle Drowned.
Fifty thousand dollars worth of
damage was wrought by a cloudburst
at Amerlcus, Ga.. Wednesday. Many
bridges Were washed away. Car
loads of lumber In the yards of the
Amerlcus Construction Co. floated
away to Mukalee creek, the water
standing five feet deep In the com
pany's yards. Tho city pumping sta

Railroad bridges were damaged con
siderably, and only one train reached
Amerlcus during the day. Many cat

thousands of bales of cotton will be
lost as a result of the flood.

The situation at the Riverside and Bel
lalre mills is unchanged. Amalga

I LOSS 10
TRADE WITH TROPICS.
More Than a Million Dollars' Worth
of Imports for Each Business
Day of the Year.
Imports of tropical and nb-troplea1
product Into the United State con
tinue to Increase, a shown by figure
prepared by tho Treasury Hureau of
Stut Istic. The demand of the tem
perate wine upon the tropics for ar
ticles of dally use a foodstuffs or for
use in manufacturing seem to In
crease with each year, and with the
Inercn.ie of facilities tor Interchange
between the tropic and th" teirpeinte
i.ones. Coft'ce, Biignr, India rubber,
tlliers. tobacco, fruits and nuts, gums,
cotton, spires, cnhlnet woods, Indigo,
cork, dye woods, Rponges, barks for
the manufacture of quinine and num
erous other articles from the tropica
now form a lnrgo proportion of the
exports of the United States, and de
spite the reduction In price in many
enses the total value are ateadlly In
creasing. Add to this the mihtroplcai
products, such as unmanufactured
silk, tea, rice and other article of
this class, and tho grnnd total aggre
gates more than a million dollar for
ench business day of Imports of a
character which cannot ,or Bt least
aie not at present produced in the
United States In sufficient quant'ths
to meet the recpilrements of out pop
ulation. In suptir and coffee tho United
States Is the largest consumer of the
world, and In many other of the trop
leal product, such as unmanufactured
silk, India rubber, fruits and nuts,
and spices, we are among the largest
Importing nations. In coffee, owing
to the reduction in price, the figures
of l'.MH are not as large as those of
some earlier years, notably 18H4 and
IM'u. though the quantity Imported ex
ceeds thnt of earlier year, with pos
sibly ono or two exceptions.
How much of this clnss of our im
portations may be in the future sup
piled by tho troplcnl territory which
lias recently come under the control
of the Lulled States Is a matter for
future development, but It Is at least
Interesting to know that nearly one-
half of the Importations of the pres
ent time are tropical and sub tropical
In character, and that nearly all are
of a class which are produced In
greater or loss extent In those islands
or territory adjacent to them.
EVACUATION OF PEKING.
Americans and Japanese Thanked for
Care of Forbidden City.
The Chinese troop re-entered Pe

Japanese simultaneously handed over
thorltles. The evacuation was pictur
esque. The Japanese nnd American
troops were drawn up at the Inner

and military officials in brilliant cos
tumes, diplomats, officers and ladies
were mussed on the plaza outside.
Prince Chins and General Chiang, the
Governor of Peking, met tho Japanese
and Americans and thankee' them for
the protection they hnd afforded the
palace. General Yamanl and Major

FAILED FOR FOUR MILLION.
Cash on Hand Four Dollars the Sched
ule of Marquand & Co.
The long-delayed schedules of Hen
ry Marquand ft Co., whose failure
caused the collapse of the Seventh
National Bank, were to-day filed In the
Supreme Court. At the time of the
failure the firm had on hand In cash
$4 71. Their liabilities wore $9,108,
l76. while their actual assets were
only $5,0i)8,49(S. The customers will
lose at least $4,100,180. The nominal
assets are $8,902,2110.
The securities which Henry Mar
quand & Co. had on hand were large
ly of tho character known In Wall
street as "cats and dogs'.' They were
stocks upon which tho bunks would
not loan money, and which had only a
future value, if any at all. They are
not now negotiable. None of the so
cured creditors will lose much money;
the loss will apparently fall upon the
customers of the firm, who are mostly
unsecured.
STATUS OF AMBASSADOR8.
It is Believed They Will Have to Re
ceive New Credentials.
The State Department Is Inclined to
believe that all of tho United States
ambassadors abroad must be supplied
with new credentials. This may be
true also of tho ambassadors from for
eign potentates and republics to Wash
ington. This belief Is based upon the
fact that the ambassador represents
the person of the sovereign or presl
dent. This is not true of the minis
ters, who, therefore, probably will not
be required to be re-commissioned.
THE KAISER CRITICISED.
Exception Taken to Prince Chun Re
ceiving the Grand Cross.
Emperor William has conferred the
Grand Cross of the Order of the Red
Eagle upon Prince Chun, head of the
Chinese mission ot expiation for
the murder of Baron von Ketteler.
Some ot the Berlin papers sharply
criticised the Emperor s complimenta
ry treatment of Prince Chun, and say
"the Chinese Prince should not be no
ticed."

Buffalo I pulling Itself together

Buffalo was with the Pan-Amerlenn
Exposition three week ago. "It I
the first exposition which has hnd no
subsidies," citizen said. "The Unit
ed State has furnished an exhibit
fnr more attractive than ever seen
before; the State of New York hns
erected a beautiful marble palace;
the city of Buffalo has built a bridge,
and ha furnished water and lire and
police protection, but the funds to
erect the city of light have all come
from the private resources of Buffalo
people.
When In tils memorable address the
President emphasized the Pan-Ameri
can Idea and made It pnrt of history
the people of Buffalo realized that
I hell effort were appreciated.
The revulsion was terrible, and now
that it In passed tho question of what
Is to come Is interesting. The dol
lars and cents seem pretty thoroughly
eliminated from the calculation now,
but the work to he done, and the end
to bo achieved seem foremost In every
man's mind. They feel now that the
Exposition must be carried to a glor
ious finish as a labor of patriotism

thought very strongly. He ald:
There must be no faltering now,
considering how much the success of
the Exposition mentis In the develop
ment of closer political and commer
cial relations between the people of
the hemisphere earnestly favored by
President McKlnley. Its ideal and
conception are In harmony with his
wise and beneficent public policy.

on the contrary it is stated Dr. Dod-

and wishes of Mr. Peary; Secretary
Biidgeman, of the Peary Arctic club;
Mr. Wyckoff and Dr. Cook. It Is as

CONGRESS TO PAY DOCTORS.
The McKlnley Physicians and Funeral
Expenses Will Be Paid.
Congress willl make special provis
ion for the payment of the physicians
and surgeons who attended President
McKlnley in Buffalo, and for the pay
ment of his funeral expenses. This
was the course pursued after the
death ot President Garfield. What
these expenses will amount to In the
case ot President McKlnley cannot be
stated, even approximately, as none
of the bills has yet been sent In. In
the case of President Garfield Con
gress appropriated In all $57,600. Of
this amount $35,500 was for the pay
ment of physicians and $22,500 for
funeral expenses. The total expenses
In the case of President McKlnley
will probably be fully as groat, for
though the bills of the physicians will
not be so large as they were In the
case of President Garfield, who linger
ed for more than two months after
he was shot, the expenses of the fune
ral are expected to bo larger. Con

In a certain Instance that there was

occasioned tho industries of Great
Britain by American manufacturers

myself, the competition most feared

our American travelers thnt she can
