from every part of the world, but mostly
of the Scandinavian races-good, relia-
BILE men in time of peace, who care little
under what flag they sail. They have
no sentiment for our flag or nationality,
and possibly if it came to an action with
a ship of their own or a neighborlng ma.
ton, they would haul down the United
States colors and hoist theirs. This is
contingency against which we should
provide, and we have the means OF doing
so through the vast number OF American
boys who are roaming the streets at will
and who would consider Government
employment q boon. What Is required
is q larger number of native-born ap-
prentice boys and the enlargement OF
conveniences for their Introduction into
the service.
On the subject of torpedoes, the Ad-
miral says: Torpeaoes no doubt can be
made powerful adjunct to other naval
appliances, but, as matters now stand,
torpedoes would be comparatively useless
against heavily armed ship with power
full guns. Great ships with great guns
will command the situation, and, having
once effected entrance into a harbor,
can, by aid of their electric lights, send
divers to the bottom and cut the wires
connecting submerged mines. Our coun-
try more than any other, stands in need
of torpedo vessels of from 1000 to 2. 900
tons displacement until we can get
our new navy facility started.
This class of vessels could be
built much more rapidly than cruisers
or armed ironclads; their batteries to be
not larger than six-inch rifles, and fitted
with machine and rapid-fring guns. mol
matter whether we bring dynamite
shells and torpedo vessels to perfection
or not, our policy lies in building fast
cruisers and heavy-armed ironclads like
the Pritana, Maine and Texas. These
are heavy artillery, which in battles
have decided the contents, and will con-
tinue to do 30, for the ingenuity of man
will always contrive some means to pro-
tect great ships from the annoyances of
the small fry.

Associated Press DISPATCHES to the HERALD.
MEMPHIS, October 26.-The grand jury
has returned indictments against Benja-
min Gratz, Anderson Gratz, L. w. Jones,
Joel Wood and Mr.. Warren, members OF
the firm of Warren, Jones & Gratz, of
st. Louis, manipulators of the
bagging trust. The indictment charges
them with unlawfully agreeing and
conspiring to buy all the bagging in
the market and outputs of the mills for
several months, and advance prices to
double what they we're before. Requisi-
ton papers will be applied for at once
and the indicted individuals will be
brought here for trial. The Attorney
General will prosecute with vigor, as
he thinks the indicted parties have
clearly violated the law.
ST. LOUIS, October 26.--Referring to
the dispatch from Memphis, Tenn, with
reference to the Indictment of members
of the jute bagging combination, Benja-
min Gratz said he did not know or care
anything about it. The firm of Warren,
Jones & Gratz were only manufacturers
and did not own a yard of bagging.

SAN FRANCISCO, October GA Wash
inton special to the Examiner says: A
statement connected with Minister
Vests Pomona letter was made this
evening by Martin Slough, an attorney
OF Los Angeles, who is now in Washing
ton. Mr.. Slough said:
The moment l read the Murchison
letter it recalled to my mind converse
ton between Frank Cherry, of Los An
geles, and myself several weeks ago. l
ought to explain that Mr.. Cherry is a
Republican snd was formerly connected
with the Times, the paper which
originally printed Mr.. Vests letter.
We were talking about the efforts
which the Republicans we're making to
win over the Irish-American vote. l re-
marked that the Retaliation message of
the President was having good effect
upon that element. "Oh. you just
wait a few weeks. We are pre-
pairing scheme that will tear
the Retaliation message all to pieces. |
did not understand it then, continued
Mr.. Slough, but I do now.
Every circumstance points to the fact
that the Murchison letter was what MIR.
Cherry referred to. Future develop
ments will undoubtedly prove it.

Stringent RoycoGt Begun on

NEW York, October 26.-The following
circular have just reached the Chinese
merchants in New York from their home
offices in Hong Kong and Shanghai !:
"Gentlemen-You are hereby notified
that you are to Immediately dis
continue the purchase OF the fol-
lowing articles from American sources
for the markets here, as they
are being severely boycotted by Kim
Maid, and by members of the trades
unions and other citizens. These arti-
cles now prescribed are petroleum. white
sheeting, all kinds of American calico,
watches and American firearms, ginseng
root and -four"
With the exception Of few Chinese
firms in New York, the above circular
will have no effect, but many San Fran
cisco firms will feel it more severely, as
several of them are heavy dealers in
American -four. petroleum and cotton
goods. .V
NoN.INTERCoURsE SUGGESTED.
San Francisco, October 26.-The
steamer Arabic arrived from Hong Kong
and Yokohama this afternoon. The Japan
Gdzetk has statement published in the
Chinese Times to the effect that the ac-
ton of the Chinese Minister to the
United States in the matter of the treaty
which was recently rejected by the Chi
nese Government, excited great animos-
ity against him in Kwanting, and en-
deavors were made by an angry mob to
wreck the Minister'S house. The Chinese
Times also contains letter signed by q
Peking official written just after news
had reached China that the United States
Senate had passed the Chinese Exclu-
sion bill. The following extract is taken
from the letter.
"If the obnoxious American bill should
be carried into effect, there will be no
other course open to China, consistent
with her dignity as nation, than to
adopt retaliatory measures by prohibit
ing citizens OF the United States from
coming to China. This, it will be seen,
is by no means proportionate to the harm
done to the Chinese but we can do the
same thing, and if this will have
no effect in bringing the United States
Congress and Government to reason
and fairness, then it will be a question
for China to consider whether it is not
time for her to cancel her treaties made
with that country, to recall her subjects
from there, to expel all United States
citizens from this country and cease all
relations and intercourse, diplomatic and
commercial, with that country"

CROSSING THE BORDER.
The slippery Celestials Creeping In
From Mexico.

Ell PAso, Tex, October 26.-The task
Of enforcing the Chinese exclusion act
proves no easy one along the Mexican
frontier. Ell Paso, Texas, and Paso del
Norte. Mexico, are separated only by the
Rio Grande, which is at present
practically dry and fordable for
ten months OF the year. There
are two or three hundred China
men in the two cities, and heretofore
they crossed freely from one to the other.
Collector Magoffin is enforcing the laws
as fully as his small force OF inspectors
will permit, but it is an easy matter for
the Chinese to evade them. Moreover
Cinnamon can come up the Mexican
Central railroad or CROSS the country
from Guaymas or other Pacific points
and slip across here into. the United
States.

PHILADELPHIA, October 55.-At the
United States mint to-day large bar,
purporting to be gold, was received from
the West. 1t resembled in shape the
ordinary bars of that precious metal and
in appearance looked like it, but when
placed in the hands Of the assayer, the
official decided that it was spurious and
of little value. A bar of gold of the
same size would be worth $50, 1000.
Superintendent Fox would not disclose
the name of the party from whom the
the bar was received, but has telegraphed
to the senders that it was spurious. A
whisper was heard in another direction
that a Western bank had been imposed
upon by swindlers and had made an
advance upon the bar.

AMELIE,s LOVE.

Here is Amelie Rives' definition Of
love, as given in her "Herod and Ma
riamne," published in the Septem-
Der Lippincott's. We quote from adj
vance sheets published in the Herald:
I'll tell thee:
1t means to put myself beyond myself,
To think of him love in that self's stead,
To be sleeps enemy because of him,
Because OF him to be the friend OF pain,
To have no thought. no wish, no dream, no
memory
That is not servant to him; to forget
All earlier loves IN his-ali hates, all wrongs;
Being meek to him, though proud unto all
others:
Gentle to him, though to all others harsh;
To him submissive, though unto high heaven
Something rebellious. Last 10 keep my pa
And bear his doubts, who have his children
borne.
Her. Enough, enough. Thou most mag
nifcent
OF queens and women, will never doubt
thee
After to-day.
Mar Alas, my lord, to morrow
To-morrow'l be to-day.
So long as do live.
Mar oh. that thou wouldst not!
Doubt is the shaft wherewith Love wounds
himself;
Doubt be no more, and be no more unhappy.

is 1T TRUE
That the Illinois Central Road Is
About to Build Into ST. Paul?

I1dc the ILLINOIS central hOau Is
About to Build Into St. Paul?
1t has been reported that the Illinois
Central road was seeking an entrance
into st. Paul, and That it had bought
large quantities of land in West st. Paul
and was about to locate its shops
and a number of other buildings on
them in the fat. These rumorS have
died out, and the road has not yet
reached this point. 1t now said
by a gentleman who knows that
the Illinois Central is coming
here by way of the flats in West st.
Paul; that it has secured considerable
ground, all that it requires for its pur-
poses, and that it certainly will build
in here. Negotiations have been con-
Quoted through certain Boston parties.
1t is the purpose of the road to go
through from st. Paul to the northern
boundary of the state, and make con-
nection with Winnipeg. The purpose
is to get some of the wheat-carrying
trade, as well as part of the general
freight business.
