[Special Difpatch to The Cell]
KHARTUM, March ' 17. — Colo«el
Roosevelt closed his stay tonight in
Khartum, and, after affectionately bjd
ding goodby to his companions on his
long hunt, started for Cairo*. The hjial
day was made up of various functions,
one of which was at the Egyptian club,
where he impressed the Egyptian offi
cers with the importance of not mix
ing politics with soldiering.
Roosevelt intends to stop at Assouan
and will inspect the dam at Luxor and
Karnak. At Cairo he will stop four
days, where Sir Elden Gorst, who is the
British agrent of the khedive, gives a
dinner. He will address the students of
the Egyptian university, where he will
urge the support of British rule and
practically denounce the nationalist
movement. The British expect this to
have an important political effect in
Egypt.
Roosevelt leaves Alexandria March
SO for Naples, and when he arrives
in Rome he will be presented to the
king and pope and thence will go to
Vienna, where he will be the guest of
Ambassador Hengelmuller. From there
he will go to Budapest and will arrive
in Paris April 19, where Colonel Roose
velt's strong personality has won for
him great popularity. . . .
At Khartum the phlegmatic English
men were aroused to enthusiasm by the
magnetic character and the strong
speeches for their continued control
over the Sudan. They believe what he
has said "will have a tremendous affect
on the Sudanese Egyptians.
Roosevelt will leave Paris for visits
In Brussels, The Hague and Copen
hagen. He also will lecture in Chris
tiania May 3. He will visit Stockholm
one day and th<*n go to Berlin, where
he will meet the kaiser May 9. From
there he will jro to London, which he
expects to reach May 16. He is due to
sail for home June 13.
Colonel Roosevelt took the occasion
on leaving- Khartum to once more re
iterate his statement that he had not
even thought of the political situation
In America, and any statement that he
was considering the governorship of
New York or any other office was with
out justification.
PLEADS WITH WIFE
TO RETURN TO HIM
Pathetic Scene Witnessed in
Judge VVeller's Court .
A pathetic scene was witnessed in
Police Judge Weller's court yesterday,
when John Humphreys Implored his
wife, Bertha, to return to him for the
sake of their boy. But the woman was
obdurate, and said that she would have
nothing further to-<3o with him.
Humphreys has charge of a small
station for the Southern Pacific com
pany, and his wife left him and their
boy recently. He searched for her and
found that she was employed in the
Hammam baths. He came to the city,
but she refused to see him. He met her
in FlHmore street Wednesday and when
lie pleaded with her to return to him
she railed a policeman and had him
arrested for disturbing the peace.
Humphreys told the judge that his
only excuse was that he loved his wife
too much to»give her up. The judge
sent them into his chambers and when
they returned into court Humphreys
sadly said that his efforts had been in
vain, and he promised to leave the city
and not trouble her again. The case
was dismissed.
VANDAL MAKES ATTEMPT
TO WRECK ELEVATOR
Special Watch Kept on Lincoln
Building
P. Rossi, one of the occupants^f the
Lincoln building. Fifth anjl Market
streets, complained to the Lincoln
realty company a few days ago that for
the third time within seven weeks an'
attempt had been made to tamper with
the elevators and pump machinery by
greasing the contacts in the battery.
The intent was to shoot off. the ele
vator to the roof a« soon as the switch
was turned on, causing the breaking of
the cables and falling of the car from
top to basement, endangering the lives
of the operator and passengers.
Suspicion fell upon Oscar Holmes,
who was discharged as engineer, and
Detective Campbell brought him to po
lice headquarters. He strenuously de
nied any knowledge of the affair, and
no action was taken against him.
A vigilant watch is being kept to
prevent a. repetition of the mischievous
and dangerous act.

CHAMPAGNE COOLER
CAUSE OF SUICIDE
Lieut. Janney Was Angered by
Wife's Gift of His Prop
erty to Ames
MANILA, March 17. — The military in
quest < into the death of Lieutenant
Clarence M. Janney developed the fact
that a silver 'champagne' cooler was
the- cause of the final quarrel which
led the lieutenant to kill himself.
The cooler priginally belonged to the
lieutenant, and, according to the tes
timony, was given to Lieutenant
Colonel Robert F. Ames by Mrs. Jannefr.
When Xhe lieutenant and his wife dined
at the home of Ames last Saturday
night Janney saw and recognized the
cooler, whereupon he upbraided his
wife for having given it to Ames.
During the verbal exchange that fol
lowed the lieutenant called Mrs. Jan
ney a liar and insisted that she apolo
gize to him. The wife apologized and
the dinner was resumed, it being gen
erally thought by the other guests
that the incident was" closed.
A little later, however, Janney left
the 'house and. returned with a re
volver, with which, according to the
coroner and a military board of in
quiry, he {shot liimself .in the presence
of _ those, \at. the" table!" Mrs. Janney
testified t|iat her husband and Lieu
tenant Colonel Ames were intimate
friends. "'
In . arm;- circles, it is believed the
action of* Major General William. H.
Carter, commanding the department of
Luzon, in'; returning the report of the
board of inquiry with a request that
furthr-r testimony be taken means that
a court martial is contemplated.
GOVERNMENT WILL SOON
CONCLUDE MAYBRAY CASE
Virginia Merchant Crossed Con-
tinent to Lose $8,500
COUNCIL BLUFFS,' 'la.; March 17.—
There was every evidence when Judge
McPherson of the federal district coun
announced a recess late this afternoon
until 7:30 o'clock tonight that the trial
of J." C. Maybray and associates for al
leged wholesale swindling operations
was nearingthe end. The government
rested just before 5 o'clock and counsel
for. the defense intimated that.no evi
dence would be offered by them."
All day long, new witnesses were
called to the stand to add to the evi
dence'before the jury.. Most of this
consisted of letters and documents of
fered by the prosecution to connect the
various defendants with some specific
allegation in the indictment.
The. monotony of this "tedious work
was relieved, however, just' before ad
journment by the calling of John H.
Sizer, a Virginia lumber merchant, who
.testified to having traveled 3,000 miles
to Los Angeles to wager^ $8,500 oh a
horse race, in which, Willard Powell,
one of the defendants, was one of the
jockeys. , ' *- \u25a0 L * »
. "It was* a tragic thing'for me," he
added, "and once it looked as if I might
have to walk back to Virginia."

DISCOUNT RATE IS
RAISED IN LONDON
Bank of England Forced to Act
by Enormous Demands for
institution's Reserve Now $25,
000,000 Lower Than This
Time Last Year
LONDON, March 17.— The directors of
the Bank' of England at their weekly
meeting today raised the minimum rate
of discbunt from 3 to 4 -per cent. .This
action was" caused _by the ' continued,
foreign demand «for gold, which'con
siderably' depleted, the ; baak's reserves.
These are npw nearly $25,000,000 lower
than at the same time last year, and
prospective further withdrawals of the
metal necessitated measures to increase
the bank's holdings. - > .''\u25a0',
For some time India has been draw
ing heavily on" the available supp.lies
of gold and considerable sums are still
wanted to move the large crops. In
addition to this demand there is a large
number, of foreign issues, including a
big delivery of American bonds in ex
change for British gold, to be provided
for. •; Forthcoming- internal monetary
requirements, also demand the building
up of the reserve. ;^
It is quite unusual for the bank rate
to be advanced at this time of the year.
No doubt one ofV the chief, causes there
for is the government's failure to col
lect taxes. This made money so plen
tiful that f it .weakened contlnentar ex
change on -'London^and made It easier
for foreign' markets to take gold from
this center ' •.V' • '
Little Surprise Expressed \u25a0
NEW. YORK, March 17. — Leading
financiers/ here manifested little sur
prise' at 'the increase of the .Lonaon
bank rate to 4,per cent, intimations to
that effect having been quite general
yesterday. In some quarters there was
a disposition . to accept the advanced
rate as a warning to the. speculative
interests responsible for the recent sen
sational rise in rubber shares in the
London market. ''.
The best authorities are agreed that
large proportions of the bonds and
note.s recently offered by American
bankers have been placed abroad.
Direct sale of bonds by American
bankers to Europe, within -the 'last two
months vary widely, but a conservative
estimate places the total well above
$100,000,000. .. ; v - v . ' •
That foreign gold will come. ln ex
change for these purchases is scouted
In banking circles, where It is,' pointed
out that Europe's, absorption of our
securities to date is but a small'offset
to our debit balance abroad. ' \
International bankers will figure ex
tensively in j the forthcoming* Issue of
New York City's $50,000,000 4% per
cent bonds, bids " for which wiir.be
opened next week. It is not at all un
likely that fully 40 to 50 per cent of
this issue will be taken by London and
Paris bankers. y <

league of Demanding Bribe
ALBANY, N. . V., March 17.— Another
vitriolic attack by. Senator Conger upon'
Allds marked the closing hours
of. the senate bribery investigation' this
atternoon. The legislator' from Groton
showed his spirit was unbroken by the
tension of the last six weeks when his
counsel recalled; him as a witness and
questioned him about the letter he
w^ote to Allds in May, 1901, shortly
after Conger alleges Allds "held 1 ; up"
the bridge companies for a $1,000 bribe.
On the face of -it this letter expresses
the most friendly relations between
the writer and the man he accuses, and
concluded with the apparently affec
tionate tribute: .
