Advices from Indiana are to the effect that the Wabash got tired of hearing uhout its banks and left them.—New York Mail and Express. Property valued at .$150,000,000 in the United Stutes was destroyed by lire in 1809, and during the present year, if the proportion keeps up, the sum will reach sl7s,ooo,ooo.—Detroit Tribune. Facilities to escape lire on board ship should be ns accessible and practicable es the iron ladders end stairways on tene ment houses.

The system of hiring out convicts has been abandoned by Texas, Mississippi and Georgia, and the experiment lias been made of employing them on farms owned by the state and devoted exclusively to cotton culture.—San Francisco Chron icle. French generals have begun to resign. What is the world coming to? General Jamont has quit merely because the see rotary of war interfered with his staff. Lot Minister Andre keep it up. By doing this he may prove himself a friend of France.—Galveston News. As usual, the American marines were among the first of the "white devils" to lie slain when the fighting began near Tien-tsin. The reckless bravery with which the American marine goes forward to be killed is only paralleled by the ef fectiveness of the work he does and the amount of damage he iullicts upon the enemy.—Chicago News. It is announced that the American silk exhibit at the Paris exposition is to he awarded the gold medal, even over the French display. This is a triumph indeed for American manufacturers and will prove an eye opener to the French, who ridiculed the idea of Americans com ing into competition with them, especial ly in silk.—St. Louis Star. THE DRESS MODEL. Next to plaits, tucking and insertion bauds, cording is perhaps the most fash ionable feature of dress trimming for thin summer gowns. Pretty and novel effects are produced this season with the colored wash braids on suits for country wear, made of linen, pique, drill and duck. The newest traveling costumes of sum mer weight cloth are trimmed with linen appliques, edged with a very narrow finish of cluny, or ore merely corded. Toile d'acicr, the new open meshed veil ing, made up over liberty silk or ponu de soie, forms one of the smartest, most at tractive and at the same time comfort able of the demidress toilets of the sum mer. Cluny laces decorate both summer gowns and fine sheer lingerie. English court modistes and Parisian ateliers have Used them prodigally on garments design ed for garden parties, fetes, receptions and fashionable watering place wear. Mohair, gypsy cloth, eolienne and the English serge that retains its fine color and silky finish, through storm and stron gest beach or mountain sunshine, have been the favorite fabrics this season in preparing utility costumes for vacation wear. Beautiful transparent wool toilets in cream or lily white (especially those with a craped surface) are much used for aft ernoon teas und garden purties. Velvet or satin ribbon, silk lace or black and white striped or dotted silks ure used va riously for accessories. Transparent materials continue to hold a very prominent place among summer "dress" toilets. Costly and beautiful gowns of india muslin, Italian crepe, mousseline brillante, barege, grenadine, eta mine, silk, mull, crepe royal, crepe de chine and watteau gauze are all greatly in evidence. —New Yok Post. HOUSEHOLD HINTS. Italian blankets are very popular for portieres, couch covers and mantels. The inexpensive organdies make dainty bedspreads, but must be lined with j silesiu of a solid color. For a cunning match scratch cut a pig from sandpaper and fasten it to a piece of cardboard and write underneath the legend "Scratch My Back." The various shades of denim, orna mented with white braid and medallions applied with white silk in fancy stitches, are very popular for sofa pillows. Corduroy nnd denim make excellent draperies. The former is durable nnd fades less than most goods, and the lattei comes in excellent shades and is inexpen sive. Huge green melons, oval shaped, in natural sizes nnd also of tinted velvet are prepared in pairs for uncommon head rests, tied together ut the top with rib bons. Black, embroidered in varying shades of coarse yellow silk with n lavish use of gold thread, makes a royally gorgeous pillow. Wide black ribbon, on which have been sewed rows of narrow yellow rib bon, forms the rutlle that finishes the edge. „ ... _ . . ... WAR NOT YET DECLARED None of the Powers Has Given China Formal Notice. OHINE9E FORCES ARE RALLYIHO Somewhat DlnqnietiiiK News Come* Front PcliinK Via Tokyo—'The Al lien May lie lleNleKt-il—CaiiKal City Cleared ol' Hover*. Washington, Aug. 27.—Neither Russia, Germany nor Japan lias declared war upon China either separately or in con cert. This statement is made upon au thority of the highest character. What those nations may do within the next 48 hours or within the next fortnight is u question which no one in Washington is prepared to answer. A brief dispatch from Cliefu conveying a rumor current there that Russia, Ger many and .lapan had joiued in a decla ration of war upon China aroused some interested comment among Washington officials and among diplomatic represent atives of foreign governments resident here. In neither official nor diplomatic cir cles, however, was the rumor taken se riously. No information of such action has reached either the department of state or the legations of the governments primarily interested. That fact alone is accepted in official circles as a sufficient refutation of the rumor. No \ewn From Conifer. Not a word was heard yesterday from Minister Conger, General Chaffee or Ad miral Remey. Since the dispatch from Consul Fowler was received late last Thursday night the department of state has received no advices from any source in China except u brief cablegram from Minister Conger inquiring how he should route his messages. The text of the dis patch, which, it was explained, was very brief and purely administrative in char acter, was not made public. The war department has received no dispatch from General Chaffee known to have come directly from him for about a week. Cablegrams signed "Chaffee" have been received, but as they contained only lists of casualties it is assumed they were sent by sonic subordinate officer in General Chaffee's name. A suspicion exists here that the delay in messages both from and to Washing- | ton is rather between Chefu and Shang hai than between Tien-tsin and Peking. From Chefu to Shanghai the telegraph line is in control of the Chinese authori ties, and it is suspected they are not so prompt in the transmission of messages as they might be. l/lltc N'CWM \ ill .lIIfMIII. A dispatch lias been received at the Japanese legation from the foreign of fice of Japan conveying the latest and most authentic information of the situa tion in and around Peking. In a measure the advices were of a disquieting nature, as they indicated that the Chinese had rallied their forces and were preparing for an attack upon the allies in Peking. If it should prove that the allied forces were besieged in Peking, it would ac count for the lack of advices from Gen eral Chaffee. As made public by Min ister Tnkahira the dispatch from the ! Japanese foreign office at, Tokyo is us follows: "An official telegram dated Peking. Aug. IS. was received at Tokyo from General Yamnguehi, coin in under of the Japanese forces, to the following effect: " 'The capital is now entirely cleared of the enemy. A cavalry regiment which had been sent to Wan-shau-shnn (where the dowager empress' palace is located) reports that the imperial family, who had left Peking Aug. 14. started after n short rest at Wan-shau-shan for the west and were under the escort of Gen eral Ma and his troops, consisting of on ly about 500 horsemen and 20 carts. The Japanese forces occupied the treasury department, in which over 2,000,000 taels in silver and a large quantity of i rice were found.' "Another telegraphic dispatch dated Tnku, Aug. 23. states that as the Chi nese troops and Boxers who had gath ered at Nau-yuen were about to attack the foreign forces at Peking Japanese and Russian cavalry were expected to encounter them on the 20th. The dis patch further states that Chinese infan try. some 9,000 strong, with 15 guns, are advancing northward from Khang-tung to make a rear attack on the allies." Alile to Care For Themselves. A copy of the dispatch was transmit ted to Acting Secretary Adee at the de partment of state and by him furnished* to the president. While the news of a possible rear attack upon the compara tively small force of the allies was not received with surprise, it generally was not regarded as serious, as the foreign forces are believed to be abundantly able to take care of themselves against any force of Chinese likely to be sent against them. A dispatch from Peking, Aug. 10, via Taku, Aug. 24, says: "Armed Chinese are reported to the southward nnd westward. A well In trenched force has been located by the Bengal lancers in a village four miles to the southwest. It is believed that the ; best Chinese leaders are in command. Detachments of the allied forces were out today reconnoiteriiig and looting. The imperial city and the forbidden city are under close guard by the interna tional authorities. This morning a thanksgiving service was attended by the members of the British and Ameri can legations, the missionaries and the marines." SITUATION AT PEKING. Imperinl City Still Invented, lut Not Yet Occupied. London, Aug. 27. —The latest news from Peking indicates that the situation there is unchanged. The imperial city is still invested, but has not yet been occu pied. The allies, when the last message left, were still refraining from aggressive action, pending instructions from their governments. An attack from 30,000 Boxers was an ticipated. and to meet this the whole American force and the British artillery, according to a dispatch to The Morning Post from Peking, dated Aug. 18, were moved to the outer city wall. The Box ers were reported coining from the south. General Dorward, in his report of the engagement outside Tien-tsin Aug. 10, when the Americans, British and Japa nese signally defeated a large force of Boxers, killing over 300, says in a dis patch dated Aug. 25: "The lines of communication near Tien tsin are now free from danger. The ene my had been treating the villagers badly. Several decapitated bodies were found near their camp. "The villagers are now flocking to Tien tsin at the rate of about I,(XM) a day. As there is not more than a month's food supply there is every prospect of a fam ine shortly." This declaration that a famine is im minent in consequence of the inadequacy of provisions for the hordes of refugees at Tien-tsin adds a new element of peril to the situation. Shanghai advices say that the report of the capture of Emperor Kwnng Su by the Japanese was erroneous. It was a case of mistaken identity. The Peking correspondent of The Daily Telegraph, wiring Aug. lb, reasserts that the dowager empress fled westward. The Poiitisehe Correspondent of Vien na, oft oil employed as the mouthpiece of the Russian foreign office, asserts em phatically that Russia lias not declared war against China and does not contem plate tuking such a step alone. The Co logne Gazette, in an article which is said to forecast Germany's attitude regarding compensation, claims that the necessary indemnity can be secured by increasing the maritime customs, the powers as suming complete control of China's finances, including the financial admin istration of the provinces. The Shanghai correspondent of The Times, wiring Aug. 24, says: "Id Hung Chang has received a mes sage from Peking that the Japanese alone will occupy the imperial palace. The Japanese government has renewed its assurances that it will protect the per- 1 sons of the dowager empress and the em peror. "Mr. Morgan of the China Inland mis sion, who has arrived here from Si-ngan fu, reports that 117 foreign missionaries and .'lb converts have been massacred at Tni-yueii-fu. "The Japanese government has notified Karl Li that negotiations*will he impos sible until plenipotentiaries acceptable to tin* powers are appointed. Japan sug gests the viceroys of Nankin and Wu chang and Earl Li. If these are appoint ed and China expresses a willingness to make full indemnity, Japan is ready to assist to the utmost." Movements of Hie .In pit 11 **<. Berlin. Aug. 27.—A dispatch from Tien tsin, dated Aug. 2ft, says: "The Japanese troops are in possession of the wall around the innermost part of the forbid den city, but have not yet made their way to the imperial palace owing to lack of government instructions." Lieutenant General Lincvitch, com mander of the First Siberian army corps, cabling to St. Petersburg under date of Aug. 10, says: "There are no longer any Boxers in Peking. They were driven out today by the French and Russians, whose flags are hoisted over the imperial city. The em press dowager, the emperor, the heir ap parent and the whole court have fled to the province of Sliensi." Li Hung Chang, according to a Shang hai dispatch dated yesterday, has once more postponed his departure for the north. The Japanese have landed more blue jackets at Amoy, where order is main tained in spite of the great excitement. ltiiMslaiiM lt'fiiM> a Truce. St. Petersburg, Aug. 27.—General Grodekoff, commander of the Amur gov ernment, reports under date of Aug. 24 that Kam-ni and Kcha-tehan have been occupied by the Russians. The Chinese sent an emissary to General Rennenkampf proposing a suspension of operations, hut the Russian general re plied that he was unable to cease hos tilities. BRITISH AFTER BOTHA. Advancing on llic Himtn In Three l.'o liiin it * I nder Huberts. London, Aug. 27.—The English are re lieved to learn that General Roberts has resumed personal command of the main British army on its advance to Barber ton. He was at Wonderfonteiu on Fri day, 22 miles from Machadodorp. Gen eral Botha is retiring slowly. The Brit ish are advancing in three columns, one under General Polc-Cnrew from Belfast, another under General French from cast of Machadodorp and the third under General Buller from the south. It is reported that Trooper Chad wick, the American belonging to Roberts' horse who lately won a queen's scarf for conspicuous bravery, has been captured while scouting southwest of Pretoria. General Roberts met General Buller at Belfast on Saturday. Akron In quiet Again. Akron, 0., Aug. 27.—Sunday passed peacefully in Akron. Funeral services were held in the afternoon over the re mains of little Hhoda Davidson, who died Friday from a wound received in Wednesday night's riot. She was in her mother's arms, the carriage in which tin* parents were driving having been wedged in by the mob in front of the city building. Mrs. Davidson insists that she saw an officer fire the fatal shot. The funeral services were held from the Davidson home and were attended by m large crowd, which filled the house and lawn and overflowed into the street. It is generally believed that Chief of Police Harrison will never again take his place at the head of the city police department. Lost Life to Sure Another. Uniontown, Pa., Aug. 27.—Alt ha M.

Pittsburg, at tempted to swim across the Moiiongahelu river several miles above Point Marion and when some distance from the other side gave out and called for help. Young Uitenour went to his rescue, and when he reached the drowning man the latter j clutched liini about the body in a des | perate manner in such away that Hit [ enour's arms were held against his body, ' and both went down.

So General Wood Intimates to People of Santiago. URGES UNITY OF THE ISLANDERS. CuhaiiH Regaril Hi* Utterance* an Mom! Mlaulfteaat—Flr*t Time Since the War American, Cnlinn uul Span lnli ITiikh Are Kntwliittd. Santiago, Cuba, Aug. 27.—Governor General Wood was utlieially banqueted here by the Republican and Democratic parties. The civil governor, the arch bishop of Cuba, the principal judicial and civil dignitaries and 10U representa tive merchants were present. The archbishop in the course of his re marks said the time had arrived for peace and that he believed a consolidation of political parties would be of greater ben efit to Cuba in the future than a house divided against itself. He said he was happy to greet the people of the United States in the person of Gene nil Wood. Senor Tauiayo, secretary of state, in a forcible sjieech said: "This is one of the most important epochs in the political history of Cuba. A constitutional convention, where the fundamental law of the land is to he framed, is about to he formed. In that convention tin* people of Cuba are to prove themselves capable of constructing a government, of guaranteeing life and property and of preserving order. They are also to prove that Cuba is a land open to all men, not only to those who are Cubans' by the accident of birth or j who participated in the revolution, but ! also those who can claim the privilege ! under the treaty of Paris. "Cuba is about to obtain what three ' generations hied for, and if the constitu tional convention is not what it should he the noble dead will rise to demand that that blood shall not have been shod in vain. If we fail in this convention, we shall be unworthy of the blood that was , shed at El Caney ami on San Juan lull. General Wood is the true friend of Cuba, and 1 can certify to it." (■ciiernl Wood** Speech. Governor General Wood on rising was greeted with shouts of approbation and "vivas," which were taken up by some ft,(MM) people assembled outside the club house on the Parque de Ccspedvs. He spoke in part as follows: "I am here us your friend and in no other capacity. Only those who renieiu- 1 liar the Tell Yenr' wur can have as, full knowledge of the conditions of this prov ince as I have myself. When I first saw El Caney matters were in a most de plorable condition. The road to Santiago was marked with dead and dying. In the improvement one sees everywhere we have a proof of the friendly interest shown by the American people. "Everybody in the United States was astonished at the satisfactory way in which the municipal elections passed off. President McKinley personally asserted that he thought the time for the next step had conn*. Whatever the ultimate destiny of Cuba may he, its immediate future is independence. This is no po litical move on the part of the United States, but a sincere desire to do what is right. Therefore, I beg you as a per sonal favor to me and to the United States government to sink your political differences and passions and to send men to the convention who arc rcnowifcd for honor and capacity, so that the conven tion may mean more than the Cubans even now anticipate. Advl**l to Send Hood Men. "Again I say, send the best men. The work before your representatives is large ly legal work. I care not what your par ty politics arc, but whatever they are for the present party considerations must be suspended for the sake of the great end in view, the end that will make history and affect the welfare of all Cuban peo ple. "Your delegates must he competent to draft a constitution, and it is a duty you "owe yourselves and your fellow patriots to see that your representation is with out party prejudice. Bear in mind that no constitution which does not provide for a stable government.will be accepted by the United States. I wish to avoid making Cuba into a second Haiti, al though I do not think that possible. "You want liberty for all and for no particular party. The United States in sists that you shall have it. This is pos sible, and easily possible. We have said it to the world. It lies with you to help us make our word good. Your enemies predict failure. The people of the Unit ed States and their representatives hope to see you defeat these predictions. If we were not your friends, Ave would not seek the best men you have, hut would seek the disturber and the malcontent to represent you in the conA'cntion. We seek and demand the best you have. Again I say. send people to the eonvention who will hereafter make your politieal system workable and permanent." General Wood's speech is considered by Cubans here to he the most important declaration made since the American oc cupation began. The Cuban flag was raised over the palace by General Wood's permission, thousands of Cubans witnessing the cere mony. The American, Cuban and Span ish arms were fastened together in dee orations at the principal theater, jpherc General Wood was present. This was the first time the Spanish arms haA'c been exhibited since the evacuation. Alleged Murderer Arrested. Elizabeth, W. Va., Aug. 27.—Last Thursday the sepson of Sam Shepard, a farmer living near Pewce, Wirt county, was found dead with his skull crushed, and Mrs. Shepard was found mortally wounded. The crime was committed on Wednesday night during Shepard's al leged absence from home. Yesterday, owing to blood stains being foufnl on Shepard's clothing, he was arrested, charged with the murder. Mrs. Shepard is dying. Negro Kill* While Mim, St. Joseph, Mo.. Aug. 27.—An unknown negro boy probably fatally slashed An gus Morrison, superintendent of bridges for the Chicago Great Western rail way, as he was hurrying to catch a train. Morrison's throat Avas cut, sup posedly with a razor. He can give no cause for the assault unless he acci dentally brushed against the negro. Snllor Buy* He \Vn* Hohhetl. Syracuse. Aug. 27.—A man giving the name of Charles Leonard and saying he is the master mechanic aboard the cruiser Baltimore, reported here that ho had been robbed of $l4O and his transporta tion from New York to Chicago üboui'd a railroad train. PUBLIC OPINIO If. Opinion* From Ynrlon* Sonrce* on llnontlonn of Public Intercut. President McKinley seems to have two backbones. One of chocolate eclair for the trusts, the other of ada mant and Harveylsed steel for the Boer peace envoys—St. Louis Republic. Is it not about time that the McKin ley administration allowed the supieme court to pass upon the question of how far the constitution extends and bow much it amounts to, anyway?— Boston Post. The attempts of President McKinley to suppress the pernicious activity of federal officeholders reminds us of the strenuous effort of the average man who has picked up a S2O bill In the street to discover the owner.—Rich mond (Va.) News. It Is pleasant to see a president act as a conjuror, pouring out of the same bottle wine for the Americans, water for the Porto Ricans and vinegar for the Filipinop. All this is very interest ing, no doubt. But it is not govern ment by the people, for the people. It is plutocracy, thinly disguised with Democratic varnish. —The Public. Neely thought Orosvenor, the presi dent's mouthpiece, meant just what he said when he declared, amid tumultu ous Republican applause, that we were In the colonizing business for the pur pose of making "all the money we can out of the transaction." But he didn't think the major would go back on him in this measly way.—Johnstown Demo crat. I think that all other questions are secondary to the questions of democra cy as opposed to monarchy. Imperial ism, expansion or whatever name we use, is the logical corpallary of mon archy, consequently a logical menace to democracy. Spain has no title in the Philippines that we had any right to respect. The purchasing power of money and the conquering power of the bullet can never give the Demo crats right to coerce. There is no righteous government except self-gov ernment. Any other government is tyranny. It may be benignant, but it is tyranny all the same.—Rev. Jenkin Lloyd Jones. Less than ten years ago it was con fidently believed that war, of any con siderable magnitude, was well nigh im possible; that mankind had so de veloped in the higher civilization that all differences betwen nations could be readily settled by arbitration, and that the enormous destructiveness' of mod ern implements of warfare would de ter all nations from yielding to the aggressive instinct. Today we find the whole world more or less convulsed with the war fever and ready to plunge into the destruction of human lite on a comparatively slight provocation. Veri ly the times have changed.—Ruther ford (N. J.) News. Col. GufTey, who was chairman of the Pennsylvania delegation at the Kansas City convention, and with 68 votes back of him active and influen tial in its proceedings, states the po litical situation tersely in advising Democrats. "In this campaign," Col. Guffey says, "it is not a question of finance, but of preservation of the re public itself. Unless we maintain the republic as it stands today under the constitution the people would have no voice in monetary affairs or any thing else. The duty of Democrats is clearly defined. If we cannot succeed with this platform and with Bryan and Stevenson as candidates, it will plainly show that the American people no longer want a democracy, but are in favor of an empire."—Pittsburg Post. We road the other day a letter In The Outlook from a correspondent in the Philippines hearing strong testi mony to the profound and universal hatred of Americans by the Filipinos. He asures us that "every Filipino is at heart an insurrecto." He is quite confident that this state of things is due to too much "clemency" on the part of the United States. The uncon scions satire of this is furnished in the estimate that we have killed over 20,- 000 Filipinos since the war broke out and reported the killing of jOO the very week the correspondent wrote. We speak not in the interest of any party or any phase of politics, but in the name of our religion and of human brotherhood when we say that this is a sad and shameful chapter in the his tory of a great Christian people.—Uni versalist Leader. Neither by the hazard of chance nor the conquest of battle can we take ter ritory for part of our domain where, because of the peculiar conditions, the flag and constitution cannot have full play. It is all wrong for us to acquire territory where it is impossible for its people to have the same constitutional rights and liberties as our own citizens. Do not depart from the 'doctrine of taxation with representation. This na tion must not enter on a career of conquest. Love of money and con quest must not be allowed to break down good government with its grand ideals. The nations of Europe may devour the weaker countries. Let us pursue a different mission in the world's history. It is not necessary for the United States to shoot, con quer and apnex in the Orient in order to get its trade. Our greatest trade is with England. And was there ever talk of annexing that land? The best way to get the trade of Oriental coun tries is to send their people the best goods.—Senator Daniel. Ten per cent of the 1,100 prisoners in the Manila prison are United States soldiers; and aecordng to the warden they are the worst lot of men in the prison. Mr. Wheelock, the former pri vate secretary of Oen. Merritt in the Philippines, has Rood grounds for say ing: "The little brown men who re ceived the United States army wth childish glee In 189S now despise with an awful hatred the Americans and everything pertaining to them."
