Parnell have decided to support the
grant, Mr. John Morley will move that
an amendment against increasing the
allowances OF the royal Prince unless
when the next request is made II ia

EMBARRASSING SITUATION
In Which Judge Cooley, of the Interstate o

COmmilsl0nI May Find Himself,
CHICAGO, July ga local paper says;
Report is current that the trunk lines
are making strong efforts to secure the
services Of Chairman Cooley, OF the Inter.
State Commerce Commission, ais Com.
missioner Of the Trunk Lines Associa.
tion In place Of Mr., Albert Fink, whose
resignation was accepted a month ago.
It Is believed that he is considering the
advisability Of Scceptin. the S25, 900 posi-
ton. He is at present of on trip to
the Pacific coast.
Should Judge Cooley decide to accept,
some people will be curious TO know how
he will harmonize such action with his
previously expressed opinion that 1t was
the heighth Of impropriHty for a man
holding a place on the Interstate Com
merCe Commission 10 accept any posi-.
ton from the railroads. Indeed, the ex-
preston OF such an opinion will, In the
minds OF many, argue strongly against
the probability that Judge Cooley will
accept any commission at the hands OF
the railroad people. Should they sue
ceed in inducing him to take the posi-.
tion, however, they will have succeeded
In capturing two OF the brightest and
ablest men on the Interstate Commerce
Commission-the Judge himself and A.

A GRAVE SUSPICION
That Sen Captain was Murdered and His

That sea Captain was Murdered and Hi
Ship COntiscatOd.
PHILADELPHIA, July 24,-There Is Q
suspicion in shipping circles that the
Philadelphia bark Mary P, KlIchinr
which has been given up for lost Is still
aaoat under the name Of Kissan, When
the marine underwriters who had risks
on the vessel were about paying the in,
surance due, information was received
here from London through Lloyd's
shipping register that the Kitchin had
arrived at Montevideo on May 2, under
the name OF the Kissan. II Is now
feared that Captain Ryan has been MUIR
dered on the passage; that the vessels
name has been changed and that one Of
the crew Is in command, ltissupposed
that the crew will collect the freight and
leave the vessel,
The story Is dlscredited in shipping
circles. It Is said that such an act Of
piracy as was limited at In connection
with the bark's disappearance could not
possibly be carried out in the manner
suggested without detection. The ves-
sel was under the flag OF the Argentine
Republic when she left England, and
coal labeled. The British Consul at
Montevidio has been instructed by his
Government TO investigate the matter,

Importers Fail to Secure u Reduction OF

WASHINGTON, July 24.-The Treasury
Department has refused to modify de-
cision made oil tho 18th ult., affirming
the decision OF the Collector Of Customs
at New York in assessing duty at the
rate OF forty.Gve cents advalorem on
certain Imported steel strips, or hoop
steel.
The importers, in asking for veGon-
sideration OF tho decision, claim that the
statement OF the appraiser, that the steel
In question is made from wire or wire
roCs rolled fiat, Is correct, and that 1t Is
in fact rolled direct from the billet in
the same way as any other flat strips or
hoops.
The appraiser states that while the
steel has the appearance by its rounded
edges OF having been rolled from wire
rods, It may have been produced from
billets rolled In grooved rollers. He re-
news, however, his statement that tue
steel Is not the steel strips ot commerce.
As this Is the vital question In the case,
The Department sees no good reason ior
reversing Or modifying its former de-
CiaiOn,

THE SALT TRUST.
Possibility that the bulk of tho Stock will
be Tnken In London.

Dc 1nken In London,
NEw YoRK, July 24.-Inquiries today
in well informed circles Of finance lead
to the belief that although there have
been numerous small subscriptions to the
new salt tompany's securities, the total
amount applied for Is inConsidcrable.
The opinion is entertained also that tho
whole amount OF stock and bonds not
subscribed for here will be taken in
London, The subscription Is for $l1,-
100000 stock, and $4,000,00O bonds.
Since the owners OF the salt properties
brought into the combine will not takc
securities for their plans, but only Cash,
the carrying out Of the programme must
make q large amount OF sterling ex-
change available and stop gold exports
for while. II is, Of course, possible
that large subscriptions may be made
here at the last moment, but up 10 this
time there has been no eagerness TO take
up the new salt securities. The sub
sCription books close tomorrow.

CONVINCING EVIDENCE
That the Standard OIL Trust Is After tho
Natural Gas Fields,

AANt WV otAhtMu VII AEuAt ~ AAtfF tllu
Natural Gas Fields.
CLEVELAND, ONO, July 24.-Cleveland
opponents Of tho Standard OIL Company
in the Ohio oil and gas fields, says that
the big trust is certainly engaged in an
effort to buy up a control Of the natural
gas lands Of Ohio and Indiana. For
natural gas lands on which leases could
have been secured short time ago at
s. or s. an acre, $50 an acre has been
paid by Standard representatives recent
ly. Dr. Baxter, OF Lima, Is the owner
OF large amount OF territory in the
Lima neighborhood, and he Ia one OF the
latest 10 sell out To the new combination.
DR.. Baxter Is now in the east with Col.
Calvin S. BriCe, who has OF late become
prominently identified with Standard
affairs. This move on the part Of the
Standard was brought about by the de-
cislon ot the city Of Toledo, with regard
to its gas. After a great deal Of trouble
with the Standard, the Toledo Council
decided 10 secure It's own supply, but 1t
is generally believed now that the deci.
sion came too late,
