assured, presumably from official sources
that the European powers have no inten-
ton OF protesting against the hostile ac-
tion OF the United States to immigrants.
The Italian government feels convinced
that II has no privilege to attempt inter
ference in such purely domestic matter,
and the German and Austrian govern
ments are believed to share this senti-
ment.
The emigration societies have been not
flied that they must cease booking steer
age passengers for American ports. With
in the last few days hundreds OF appli-
cants have been refused at Italian ports.
As the notification cannot be spread TO
all the rural districts for several days,
peasants continue to go the seaports in
considerable numbers and, as most OF
them have little money, much difficulty
will be experienced in getting them back
to their homes.

What They Contribute To the funu Oh IN
formation About Him.
AUGUSTA, Me-, Dec. 20.-A relative OF
Mr.. Blaine says that the secretary never
fully recovered from his illness Of two
years ago, and has gradually been losing
strength since, so that he would not have
been surprised il the end had come at any
time.
1.-THE tremendous activity OF his mind
has had something to do with it," con-
tinued Mr.. Blaine's relative, land re-
member well what was said by DIR. Hill,
who stood at the head of the medical pro-
fession i'm the state, when he made pro-
fessional call upon Mr.. Blaine just be-
fore the doctors death. 'Jim,' observed
the doctor, tapping the secretary lightly
upon the forehead, you would be
all right, but you've got something in
there that gives you no rest 1t Is known
here that one week ago last Saturday Mr..
Blaine suffered from an attack similar to
that which has just alarmed the coun-
try"
Augusta parties who have seen Mr..
Blaine within week say his appearance
is about the same as when he was last
seen in public, except he has grown much
thinner. Mr.. Blaine's friends here are
very much discouraged about him, and
fear they will never see him alive again.
Many think IL he had come here and re-
NAMED after leaving Bar Harbor, he
would have regained his health.

The Aged Canal Protector Summoned to
Appear Before the Magistrate.
PARIS, Dec. 20.-It transpires that, al
though he was confined to his bed, Fer
diuand de Lesseps was summoned to ap-
pear before the examining magistrate. He
had the cross of the Legion OF Honor
placed on his breast and then rose to be
dressed. Almost Immediately he sank
back on the bed and became delirious.
Since then he has thought that the serv-
ing OF the summons was only dream.
He is very feeble, both mentally and
physically.
There Is strong sentiment among GER
tain financiers, headed by Albert Chris
tophle, governor of the Credit Foncier,
that the government should make anoth-
er attempt to float the canal enterprise.
II is said that more than 100000 share
holders are ready to make last strong
effort TO save the money they have already
placed in the undertaking.

LONDON, Dec. 2o.-Sir VIM. Houlds-
worth, one OF the British delegates to the
international monetary conference, has
written letter denying that he opposed
an adjournment OF the conference. He
saws, that on the contrary, he strongly
favored adjournment, believing that the
important opinions expressed in the con-
ference should be fully discussed and dl-
gssted in the coming Parliament. BIZ
metallists are attaching importance to the
influence of Archbishop Walsh on the
question, and they claim that the issue
thus raised will figure in Parliament to an
extent the government will have to reck-
on with.

The farmers are moving ahead with
their work, and though We hear that only
about half as much guano will be used
this year as last, there was almost con-
slant stream of wagons hauling it off last
Monday. Many people belieye that the
farmers will buy much less than usual
this year, and that with good crop year
they will be in better condition than for
long time. We trust that this will be the
case. We know that the farmers of this
community work hard, and waste little
time during the whole year, and yet often
theJafail to make support. Rigid econ.
omy is the only remedy. Buy less, be
careful about accounts, don't let them get
too large. What we don't get we will not
have to pny for.
