A BUSINESS MANS VIEW
OF the Effect of the Reciprocity Treaty
with Brazil.

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-Charles r.
Flint. one of the United States delegates
to the Pan-American congress, mem
Der of the well known firm of Flint &
Company. in the South American trade,
and treasurer of the New York Com
mercial company, limited, which deals on
a large scaA with Brazil and is the larg
est importer of rubber and other goods
from that country into the United States,
was seen by a reporter in reference to
the reciprocity treaty just concluded be-
tween Brazil and the United States.
Mr.. Flint expressed himself strongly in
approval of this convention, which he
characterized as the most important
event in the commercial history of the
United States for many years. He
thought that it would be of immense
benefit to both countries, and would
give new and strong impetus to our
manufacturing and agricultural inter
ests. Mr.. Flint said that he was greatly
impressed with the shrewd statesman
ship and faT-sightedness of Mr., Blaine
in perfecting thus the first treaty of
reciprocity with country like Brazil,
with its immense possibilities both as a
consuming market OF our products and
as sugar pTOuuCiliS Coulitly' MS

stroke which gave us the key to the
position, as it were, in dealing with
Spain. sg6s'
"The United States occupied now a
vantage ground from which they could
almost dictate their own terms to Cuba
and Porto Rico, the prosperity of which
was entirely dependent on their retain
ing the American market, and those
islands would have to grant us such
reciprocity as we would in fairness be
entitled to, or go into bankruptcy OF

Miners Blown to Atoms.

LEADvILLE, Col, Feb "a terrible
explosion of giant powder occurred in
the Wiefy tunnel of the White Quail
mine, at Kokomo, Thursday. William
Young and John Anderson were blown
to atoms, and John johnson, John Nc
Leod and Will Grain, were terribly in
jured. Many of their bones were
broken by flying rock. The accident
was caused by the accidental explosion
of thirty sticks of giant powder, and
it is wonder that all the men in the
mine were not killed.

Gang Dies with His Boots On.
WINCHESTER, KY, Feb. 9.-Another
member of the French Eversole gang
that has given Perry county such an I'M
enviable reputation has gone to that
bourne where Winchester rifles are not
known, and like most of his predecessors,
died with his boots on, This time it
was Frank Polly, the youngest member
of the Eversole faction, and the most
daring and reckless partisan on either
side. His death, however, was not con-
nected with the previous factional
troubles, but was the result of quarrel
with his uncle, Ira Davidson, who beat
him to death with a maui. Davidson had
been gone from the county for some time
and on his return found that his nephew,
Polly, had married during his absence
and had removed most of Davidson's
household goods to his own residence.
This caused the trouble that led to
Pollys death.
