The news, which has just reached
the state department from Havana,
to the effect that General Rlias has ae
cured the negotiation of a reciprocal
treaty with Cnba along the lines out
lined in Washington, constitutes an.
- other triumph for the Roosevelt ad
ministration, especially , as the presi
dent has secured from several sena
tors formerly'opnosed to the policy,
their pledges to vote for the ratifica
tion of the treaty when it is sent to
the senate. By virtue of the treaty,
which will, soon reach Washington,
the United States will secure a prac
tical monopoly of the products of the
Cuban markets for those manufac
tures and products of which she has a
surplus to dispose, and will give in re
turn merely a discount of 20 per cent,
from the Dingley schedules on im
ports from Cuba.
The probable appointment of Mr.
Lloyd C. Griscom, now minister to
Persia, to succeed Mr. Buck, minis
ter to Japan, who has resigned, is re
garded with satisfaction by the friends
of the administration as it is believed
the appointment will serve to ce
ment the friendship between Senator
Hanna and the president. Senator
Hanna originally recommended Mr.
Griscom for the Persian post and has
been anxious to secure for him a mer
ited promotion which the Japanese
assign tnent will be. Mr. Roosevelt
first appointed Mr. John Barret, now
minister to Siain, to the post at Tokyo
but, learning that certain public ut
terances of Mr. Barret had offended
the Japanese court, instructed Secre
tary Hay to advise the iormer that it
might be well for him to decline the
appointment. Another promotion will
probably be found for him in the near
future.
President Roosevelt is watching
closely the Venezuelan situation and
will, in the event that either Germany
or Great Britain attempt to infringe
upon the Monroe Doctrine, enter a
prompt protest. So long however, as
these nations make no effort at terri
torial acquisition there will be no in
terference on the part of the United
States. In the meantime, Mr. Bowen,
United State minister at Caracas, has
shown the utmost friendliness and im
partiality to all concerned, has secur
ed the release of the consuls and citi
zens of the aggressive powers and has
made known to the state department
the desire of President Castro to sub
mit all differences to arbitration,
which desire the state department has
communicated to the nations involved.
It is hoped and believed that the con
servatism of Great Britain will re
strain the pugnacity of Germany and
that a solution of the difficulty will be
arrived at without interference from
Washington.

The trust situation in the house of
representatives has changed some
what since last week's letter was writ
ten. The conservative element in the
senate has made it known that it will
oppose anything in the nature of a
drastic anti-trust bill and for that rea
son Chairman Jenkins, of the judici
ary committee, is now engaged in the
attempt to draft a bill which, while it
carries out the wishes of the president,
will not meet with fatal opposition in
the upper chamber. Meanwhjle,
The special edition of the Scientific
American, devoted to transportation
on land and sea, cannot fail to attract
widespread interest, both because of
the very handsome manner in which
it is gotten up a :d on account of the
voluminous am .tut of information
that it contains. It is safe to say that
anyone that reads it carefully through
will find himself thoroughly posted
both as to the magnitude and high
quality of our railroads. The Scien
tific American has its own character
istic way of presenting what some peo
ple might call dry statistical matter
in an interesting form, and the pres
ent number is no exception to the
rule. Both artist and editor have col
laborated to certainly very good effect,
and we believe the number will meet
everywhere with a hearty reception.
Coughing- Spall Cauwd Death.
"Harry Duckwell, aged 25 years,
choked to death early yesterday
morning at his home, in the presence
of his wife and child. He contracted
a slight cold a few days ago and paid
but little attention to it, Yesterday
morning he was seized with a fit of
coughing which continued for some
time. His wife sent for a physician
but before he could arrive, another
coughing spell came on and Duckwell
died from suffocation. St. Louis
Globe-Democrat. Dec. 1, 1901." Bal
lard's Horehoond Syrop would have
saved him. 25c, 50c and $1 at W.
R. Barton's.
there is strong prospeot that the Hep
burn bill which appropriates (500,000
to enable the attorney general to pros
ecute the trusts under the Sherman
law will be passed by both chambers.
Both houses of congress have passed
the bill appropriating $50,000 for the
salaries and expenses of the anthra
cite coal strike commission. There
was some objection on the part of the
democrats and some republicans de
sired to so amend the bill as to make
it clear that congress did not wish to
establish a precedent but the general
feeling of gratitude to the president
prevented any serious opposition.
So far, the territorial fight in the
senate has been put off although the
bill will be taken up soon. Senator
Quay has yielded none of his deter
mination to secure the admission of
the three territories but Senator Bev
eridge and his supporters, who form a
majority of the republican senators,
are equally determined on their part,
The fate of the bill doubtless depends
on the efficiency of generalship with
which each side conducts his forces
through the mazes of parliementary
obstacles and a wrong turn at any
moment may mean defeat for one side
or the other.
Chairman Coopev of the house com
mittee on Philippine insular affairs
tells your correspondo:it that he ex
pects the committee to authorize a
bill providing for the old standard
in the islands before the close of this
week. He says three fourths of the
present commerce of the islands is
carried on with gold and he does not
anticipate any serious effect from a
chanse of standard. Replying to a
question as to why it would be neces
sary to provide a subsidiary coinage
instead of immediately substituting
American money, Mr. Cooper said
that those who had studied the ques
tion reported that it would be practi
cally impossible to convince the ignor
ant natives that the American dollar
of the same size and weight wa3 worth
double the dollar he had been in the
habit of receiving and that the at
tempt would make trouble. For that
reason it was deemed wise to provide
a subsidiary coinage which would be
gradually withdrawn from circulation
as the natives become accustomed to
the American dollar.
Certain correspondents, evidently
searching the sensational, have sent
bioadcast a story to the effect that the
president intends to relegate the por
traits of former occupants of the
White House to the basement. As a
matter of fact, these portraits are to
be hung in the main corridor of what
was formerly the basement but what
is to become virtually the first floor.
The new corridor will be the one
along which will pass all guests at
presidential receptions, and in which
the "line" will be formed on ceremo
nial occasions. The fact that the por
trait of Mrs. Roosevelt, recently paint
ed by Chartran, is to be hung there
should be sufficient evidence that Mr.
Roosevelt is treating with no disre
spect the likenesses of his predeces-
mi f . n "It

semble in many respects, the halls of

WRECK ON THE HANNIBAL
Three
Killed and Several Mured at Yellow
Creek Saturday Night.
A fatal and very destructive wreck
occurred on the Hannibal at East
Yellow creek between Bucklin and
St. Catherine last Saturday night. At
nine o'clock a couslruction train
equipped with the big steam derrick
and tool car pushed by au engine and
it followed by a way car, left Brook-
field tox clean up a small wreck at
Bucklin. The train was going at a
high rate of speed and when Yellow
creek bridge was reached the crane of
the derrick caught the superstructure
tearing the whole bridge .iway letting
the tool car and engine into the creek,
The derrick was pushed o.i across but
turned over just at the east end of the
bridge.
Roadmaster Murphy, Arthur Hy
att, engineer of the derrick; and
Thomas Ainsworth were killed and a
number of others injured. '
Engineer Goode and Fireman
Ureen went clown with their engine
to the bottom of the creek and both
escaped with only slight bruises.

Rev. Irl R. Hicks 1903 Almanac.
To say that this splendid work of
science and art is nner and better
than ever, is stating it mildly. The
demand for it is far beyond all previ
ous years. To say that tuch results
reaching through thirty-year, are not
based upon sound sense and useful
ness, is an insult to the intelligence ot
the millions. Prof. Hicks, through
this grout Almanac, and his famous
family and scientific journal, Work
and Works, is doing a work for the
whole people not approached by any
other man or publication. A fair test
will prove this to any reasonable per
son. Added to the. most luminous
course in astronomy fur 1903, fore
casts of btorms and weather are given,
as never before, for every day in the
year, all charmingly illustrated with
nearly two hundred engravings. The
price of single Almanac, including
postage and mailing, is thirty cents.
