Of the marine corps. now in business here, he
states damaging things in relation to Snug.
Cling In the navy, rejecting seriously on a
number Of naval officers. He gives the de-
tails OF a cruise Of the United States steamer
Saratoga In 1880 and charges that the vessel
was laden with a cargo Of carpets, rugs, silks,
laces, gloves, etc, consigned to naval officers
In Washington and that the cargo was
brought to Hampton Roads and there at
night transferred TO the United States steamer
Tallapoosa, which came down from Washing

Afflicted Charleston.

CHARLESTON, s. c., Nov. There was a
renewal nf the seismic disturbances here sat
urday night, two shocks having ccurrrd
The first took place a little after IL O'Clock,
and was of a rather moderate character. 1t
consisted Of a somewhat heightened roaring
noise like thunder al a distance, and was ac-
companied by two tolerably light but distinct
vibrations. The second shock occurred at 3 40

~iiciently sharp 10 awaken a good many people,
and 1t was followed by the usual tremors Of
the earth, rafting Of windows, etc, but the
tremors were only of a few seconds duration.
Considerable disappointment of feeling is felt
at this revival OF the disturbances, as it was
confidently thought that the advent of the
present cool weather had ended them. Until
Saturday night no shocks had been felt here
since October %, with the exception Of a few
slight tremors which were scarcely notice
able.

THE BEACON OF LIBERTY
Grand Ceremoni: at New York in Honor
Of Rartboldi's Great Statue.
Fully a Million People Present to Join in
. the Dedication Exercises.


The public schools were all closed and bust
ness almost entirely suspended in New York
Thursday in honor of the unwilling of the
beacon statue OF liberty In New York harbor.
French and American flags were displayed
from windows In all directions. Visitors
from all sections Of the country have been
coming into the city Tor two days past, and
Thursday morning thousands more were
added to the great throng.
The president reached the reviewing stand
at Madison Square at l0:40. After the presi-
dent had taken his place on the reviewing
stand the members of the French delegation
were presented TO him. Most OF the space on
the stand was reserved for the French guests.
Other distinguished guests on the reviewing
stand were Gov, Hill, Lieut. Gov. Hill and
staf, and Gen. Sheridan and staff.
The crowd in Madison Square when the
president reached the reviewing stand was
vast. The side streets were choked with hui
manity and Broadway was clogged with We
hicles and street cars above and below the
intersection OF the line OF march.
When Bartholdi, the sculptor, appeared and
was easily recognized by the mass, who had
seen his portraits on programmes and I'm illus
trated papers, a shout went up from those
nearest the stand. The cry OF "Bartholdi!"
"Bartholdi!' was then caught up on both the
reviewing and grand stands. The crowds on
the avenue curbings, up and down, heard the
name and passed II TO the people in the park
and side streets until the heavy air was
shaken with the roar Of cheering that must
have gladdened the heart Of the Alsatian, who
bowed and bowed his acknowledgements.
And then In carriages, driven TO the rear of
the grand stand, came President Cleveland
and his party. Instantly he was recognized
and again the crowds shook the welkin with
their shouts.
A handsome silk French flag was placed
over the face of the statue and at "A word from
President Cleveland il was drawn, unwilling
the head Of the goddess, followed by a salute
from all the guns in the harbor.
The labor parade, which moved out at 9
O'Clock, included between $4,000 To 81, 900
men.
The presentation Of the statue to the Amer
lean republic on behalf of the French republic
was made by CLANCY NJ. Depew, to which
President Cleveland replied warmly. Count
dc Lesseps spoke In French.
"Old Hundred" was played by the band
and the assembly joined in singing the dox-
ology.
The ceremonies were closed by the benedlc-
ton, pronounced by Rt. Rev. Henry {. Pot
ter, d.. d., assistant bishop of the diocese Of
New York. A national salute was then fired
simultaneously by all the batteries i'm the har-
Dor, afloat and ashore.

Of Interest to Bank Cashiers.

OTTAWA, Nov. lit is understood that an
effort will soon be made by the dominion
government TO induce the American govern
ment to consider the draft OF the proposed
eXtradition treaty between Canada and the
United States. Several amendments calcu-
lated to prove acceptable will be submitted.
In official circles here 1t II stated that the
last draft was deliberately rejected by a small
clique on the ostensible ground that it might
affect political liberty, although it was ey-
pressly provided that the draft should not
cover political oiTenscs. The federal govern
menti is opposed to the present condition Of
affairs, and would readily agree to any meas
ure rendering the present harbor Of refuge for
criminals impossible.

Doubtful.

Youths Companion: Leopold Won
Ranke, who is regarded in Germany as
the greatest of all historians, died a
few weeks ago at a great age. His
aim in writing history was, as he stat
ed fifty years ago, to set forth the coll
orless truth, without any tlnge from
his W opinions. His books are, there
fore, a collection of facts, unwarmed
by the special pleading which makes
the pages of more brilliant historians
interesting and untrustworthy.
1t is said that when Won Ranke first
began to collect facts for his history, a
singular accident occurred in his native
town. A small bridge gave way one
morning, and some passengers were
swept away in the current beneath.
Won Ranke was absent at the time. but
returned the next day, and inquired
into the details of the catastrophe.
IL saw the bridge fall said one of
his neighbors. "A heavy vain had
just passed over it and weakened it.
Two ONE were on it when it fell,
and a soldier on IA white horse"
Il saw it fall" declared another;
''but the vain had passed over it two
hours previous. The foot passengers
were children, and the rider was a CT
william on a black horse"
Now" said Won Ranke .'if it is inn
possible to learn the truth about an &c
cident which happened at broad noon
day, only tw~enty-four hours ago, how
can | declare any fact to be certain
which is shronded in the darkness of
ten centuriesP"
He often declared that much of his
caution and impartiality was due to
this trivial incident.
All educated people desire to gain a
true idea of the events of history, hut
very few Of them can afford the time
to examine into original documents to
obtain this knowledge. Their best
course. perhaps, is to read the accounts
Of two historians Of differing opinions
and parties concerning each epoch, and
to take a middle ground of belief. The
same plan is best in Judging of living
persons.
''If thou wouldst know me-" says the
Persian proverb, whisper with both
my enemy and my friend"
Out of long experience the eager
Frenchman names the middle ground
ale juste milieu."

SPAIN AND THE UNITED STATES.
The Differences Between the Two Likely
TO Continue.

MADRID, oct. 25.-The Spanish government
has received official intimation that as yet the
president of the United States adheres To his
proclamation. That course seems likely to
continue as the disagreement also continues
between the two governments with regard to
the intent and meaning Of the agreement Of
February l3, 1854. The council OF ministers
will meet tonight to consider what course the
colonial minister Is prepared TO adopt as to
shipping and protectionist interests. He will
ask the cabinet to replace all American inn
ports and vessels under the duties of the
fourth and highest class in the colonial tariff
by way OF repriSals. The Cuban representa-
tives deprecate this measure, which will hand
over all the carrying trade of West Indian
sugar TO other countries. IL diplomatic cir.
Giles it Is believed that the commercial conflict
cannot long remain unsettled, as the other
nations having treaties, such as England and
Germany, especially want America TO obtain
what concession they could claim in the Span
ish colonies.

Big Land Cultivation Sheme.

NICksBCRG, Miss, Nov. lit Is stated in
this city that {. r.. Huntington and X. I.
Wilson, of New York, and Leland Stanford.
of California, contemplate forming a comb
nation to open and cultivate about l00,0 900
acres of land on the line @f the Louisville,
New Orleans and Texas railroad In the Yazoo
delta. The road owns about go, 600 acres, but
has sold about one-third TO actual settlers.
1t Is the intention of the gentlemen 10 bring
the land to the highest standard OF cultiva-
ton. The lands In the Yagoo valley are re-
cognized as the finest cotton lands In the
south. They will cultivate principally cotton,
using the latest improved machinery where
practicable. The continuous line OF ~levees,
which extended from the high ground below
Memphis to the hills at Nicksburg guarantee
protection from high water.

story, for the truth Of which Mr.. Roosevelt
O'Donnoyan Rosa called upon Roosevelt
