NATIONAL SUPREME COURT, BUENOs AYREs-
toric banking house of Barings was only
saved from suspension of payments by
the support Of the Bank of England and
other strong institutions.
In the United States this crisis in the
Argentine was also felt very seriously,
even though the commercial intimacy be-
tween the two American republics was not
great. But the business interests of the
world are so bound up with one another
that an important happening even in a
remote commercial market is felt in all
other markets. Here many men who had
not much more than heard of the Argen.
tine had TO abandon promising enterprises
on account of the happenings in Buenos
Ayres.
This crisis was the collapse of a boom.
in the Argentine prices OF every sort had
been unduly inflated aud there was the
very fever Of speculation in the air. This
boom, like those that have been so disas-
trous in their effects in some of our west.
ern and southern states, was n boomerang
and hurt all who had to do with il. The
bankers who went to the assistance Of the
Barings announce from time to time how
they are getting along in paying the in
debtedness of that firm, but we have not
heard much rs to affairs in the Argentine
Republic. So to get authentic informa-
tion on this subject called the other day
on Mr.. Carlos Rohl, the consul general Of
the Argentine Republic In New York
That gentleman said

this nature they did not suffer defeat as

Since 1910. when the yoke of Spain was
thrown off. the Argentine has been a re.
public. Up to 1860, however, internal
struggles and political troubles hindered
the progress of the country. In that year
the present constitution, framed somewhat
after that of the United States. was adopt
ed, and there has been comparative peace
and q. steady growth in population and
wealth. The presidential term is for six
years, and no successive reelection is per
mitted. A new president, Senor Luis
Saenz Pena, was inaugurated in October

Mr.. Rohl is an accomplished man OF the
world. He knows both Europe and Amer
ica very well indeed, as he has Travelled
over both with wide open eyes. But he is
a most enthusiastic Argentine. Next to
seeing the prosperity of his own country
well established once again, the thing
nearest to his heart perhaps is that the
commercial ties between his country and
this should be made closer. The great
bulk of the business now is with England.
The Argentines would very much like tc
see a part Of this at least done by Ameri.
cans. The ArgentiDes, like other Spanish
descendants, have long memories, and
they seem unable to forget how the Eng
ltsh in their own characteristic and amiablt
way tried to gobble up the River Plate

were prevented from succeeding In this lit

In regard to her views OH the various
aspects which the Hawaiian question is
| likely to assume, Princess Kaiulani refer
red inquirers to her guardian, Mr.. Davies,
who had prepared statement, both on his
own and her behalf. In her statement the
princess says, in part:
Seventy years ago Christian America
sent over Christian men and women 10
give religion and civilization to Hawaii,
They gave US the gospel, made US nation,
and we learned to love aud trust America.
Today three of the sons of those mission
aries are at your capital, asking you to
undo their fathers work Who sent them?
Who gave them authority to break the
constitution which they swore they would
uphold
To-day ], poor weak girl with not one
of my people near me and with all OF these
Hawaiian statesmen against me, have the
strength to stand up for my people. Even
low l can hear their wall in nv ears, and
it gives me strength and courage I am
strong in my faith in God. strong in the
know ledge that | am right, strong IN the
strength of seventy millions of people,
who, in this free land, will hear my cry,
and will refuse to let their flag cover dis
honor 10 mine"
Mr.. Davies was delighted to learn that
the question of annexation had taken a
turn in the senate and had been practically
laid over for the consideration Of the next
administration.
"We do not mean to get hearing with
President Cleveland in any official capac-
ity," said he, "but simply as private indi-
viduals. What his decision is will scarcely
be affected by our visit. The princess felt
that in the face of threatened annexation
she ought to come here, where she could
learn directly what was the true sentiment
of the people.n

But it was felt TO be gracious and proper
courtesy. MIR. MortoD's 5 elegant mansion
had been decorated with palms, ferns,
foliage plants and cut flowers. Mr.. and
Mrs. Morton received the guests. At their

1t was a distinguished and representa-

were also the members of the cabinet, the
assistant secretaries of departments, heads
OF bureaus, the New York and Illinois

the diplomatic corps in all its brilliancy
of insignia, the heads of the army and

SWINGING AROUND THE CIRCLE

OF disease to which it is adapted with tho
best results, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
a family medicine, comprehensive in its
scope, has never been thrust upon public
attention in the guise of universal pan
acea for bodily ills. This claim, daily ar
rogated in the columns of the daily press
by the proprietors of medicines far infer
ior to it as specifics, has in q thousand
instances disgusted the public in advance
by its absurdity, and the prospects of
other remedies Of superior qualities have
been handicapped by the pretensions of
their worthless predecessors. But the
American people know, because they have
verified the fact by the most trying tests,
that the Bitters possesses the virtues of a
real specific in cases of malarial and liver
disorder, constipation, nervous, rheumatic,
stomach and kidney trouble. What 1t
does 1t does thoroughly, and mainly for
this reason it is indorsed and recommend
ed by hosts of respectable medical men.

rounds and consumed two hours and
twenty minutes. The battle was for u

entered the ring at 147 pounds and were in
prime condition. Needham had the best
of the fight up to the eighteenth round,
knocking Maber down twice during that
time The next six rounds were devoid of
interest. After that Maber began TO get
the advantage, though be was knocked
down In the twenty seventh round. But
that seemed to make him more determined
to win, and from then on he fought hard
and furious battle. Maber led for Need
hams face and landed nearly every time,
inflicting severe punishment. AT the end
of the thirty-ifth round Needham's face
WAS badly bruised. His left eve was
closed and his lips bleeding In the next
round Needham received terrific upper
cut and went down. The referee awarded
the fight TO Maber, saying that Needham
would fight until be died. Maber was not
badly punished.
