Barton, of Ramsey county. and Sheriff
McCune, of TOwner county. and placed
in the Grand Forks county Jail for safe

lynching at the hands of the enraged

lynching him. 1t is even rumOred

by the officers from the Jail at Devils

The Rochester Editor Discourses
Upon Chinese Merchants and
Trade.
Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, July 1O.-There has
been a great deal of talk about the bad
effect the Geary anti-Chinese act will
have on our commerce with China, for
which there is no real foundation ac-
cording to late report from Hon. j. A.
Leonard. of Rochester, Minnesota, con-
sui general to Shanghai for four years
past. The Chinese merchant is wiser
than he is generally supposed to be by
the people of this country, and buys
where he can buy cheapest. Speaking
of this, Mr.. Leonard says:
Want the Cheapest Market.
1t may be safely asserted that the
Chinese merchant will buy in that mar :
ket which holds out to him the best
profit. There is no question of pre-
judice for one country to the dlsadvan-
tage of another.
Tacoma has recently been connected
with Shanghai. The advantages that
should result to Tacoma therefrom are
obvious. There are two classes of
merchandise that China might import
from AmerIca-goodS such as are used
IN the United States which are adapta-
BILE here and goods made especially for
the Chinese market. AS far as have
been aole TO learn. very little, if any, of
the goods as yet imported into China
from the United States belong to the
latter class.
Manufacturers of cotton fabrics are
content to offer their goods when the
demand of the home market is slack
and they require an outlet for surplus
stock; but as yet the United States
have not attempted to manufacture cot
ton goods to meet the special features
of the market here,
Market Worth Reaching.
The imports of China in 1891 were of
the value of s134, ,0O3, sos, and in 1892
s135, 1O1. 19s. The principal items in the
latter year show the possibilities opened
to American manufacturers and mer-
chants, if they vii take pains to meet
the demands of the trade. The leading
items follow:
Cotton goods NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. S52, ,707, 432
Wooen goods. -. ............- 4,794, go
Metals iron rails. etc......... 7,130, 500
Sundries, tiRb ber, coal and various
manufactured articles. s............ 1854, ,651
Total ..... ...... Sl35, 1oI, 1875
The exports for the same two years.
1891 and 1892, were 500, ,947,5s5 for the
first year and s1O2, $50. .525 for 1892, or
more than S3O,OOO,O 600 less than the i'm
ports for the corresponding periods. Of
the exports in 1892 silks in various
stages of production amounted to over
$4,000, 600; sugar, 81, ,0OO,OO teas, s25,-
100000; cotton, S5,OO0,O0O, and paper
S1.500.O One feature of the Chinese
exports which go to make up the re-
naming S2O,00O,OOO IS that the articles
are nearly all in raw state. and re-
quire labor and ingenuity 10 make them
useful to the world.

Tennesseean's Unique POST
script-Leonard on the Chinese.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, July 10.-There have
been many amusing letters of resigna-
tion sent into the postofice department
by Republicans who have felt it their
duty to resign on account of the change
of administration, but the best thing in
this line so far was sent to the fourth
assistant postmaster general by Min
nesota man who resides not very far
from Fergus Falls, where he still llcks
stamps, by the way. The letter follows,
with the omission of the name of the
postmaster and his town:
Willing to Retire.
Fourth Assistant Postmaster General,
Washington, ID. C.-Sir: l hand you
my resignation as postmaster at. .....
1 have been postmaster nearly four
years; will be I'd of September next.
Think l can live four years off of what
have made. A man that can't make a
good thing feeding at the public crib
four years ought to step out. Every
third party and Democrat in. .....i is
after the office. All the harm wish
them is, there is not enough offices. You
may put this in effect at your pleasure.
l got the Office for being good Repub-
lican: now l want to lose it for being
the same. The office pays $40 per
month. As Democrats clamor for cheap
things, they ought to work for half
price. A postmaster only works 366
days in the year, and answers when a
letter will be answered. and why he
don't get two letters for each one writ
ten, and when will the north-bound
train be going north. Yours until March
4, 1897.
Eclfpsed by Hatfield.
The Democrat who succeeds him will
take notice that the old postmaster eX-
poets to resume business again at the
old stand after March 4, 1897, and that
it is, therefore. incumbent upon him ''to
make good thing feeding at the public
crib four years"
The Minnesota man certainly wrote a
unique resignation, but he must yield
the palm to a fellow worker in the
mountains of East Tennessee, who add
ed the following postscript to requisi-
ton for stamps:

SILVER BIDS REFLECTED.
Acting Director Preston Regards
Them as Too High,

WASHINGTON, July 1O.-The treasury
department today again arrayed itself
firmly against the silver brokers. 1t
was the customary day for making the
proportional purchase of silver on the
July account, and 4SS,OO0 ounces were
offered. The prices asked averaged
from Y to rs cents. They were regarded
as too high by Acting Director Preston,
who made counter proposition by
offering 7115 cents per ounce. That is
one-half cent less than the department
paid for its silver last week. Appar-
emily the silver men are reluctant to
come to these terms, for up to the close
of Office hours no acceptances were
received.

and was soon at the top of the ladder.
A Shout of Admiration

A Shout of Admiration
and encouragement went up from the
multitude below. The heroic marshal
started back with his friend, but was en-
veloped i'll flames. With the energy of
despair he clutched his comrade and
slid down the ladder to the roof, where
he fell PROSTATE. Both Murphy and
Fitzpatrick were unconscious. They
were lowered TO the ground and taken
to the hospital, and 1t is doubtful if
either will recover.
Scarcely twenty-five minutes had
elapsed since the fire was discovered, but
so rapid had been its progress that the
entire tower was burned away, and it
fell with an awful crash, carving with
it several firemen who were playing on
the flames with the hose from the roof.
There was wild scramble to get off
the roof. A large quantity of linseed
oil was stored on the top floor, and
when the tower fell it crashed through
the roof to this inflammable oil, and
then the flames rolled up high In the
air. As the firemen fed from the roof
one Of them picked up the mangled
form of one of the unfortunates who
had jumped from the balcony, and, car
rylng 1t to the edge of the roof, dropped
it to the ground, thus saving it from
cremation. As yet the body has not
been identified, as the face was burned
black. Many Of the unfortunates who
lost their lives
Might Have Been Saved
had the department been supplied with
nets. They could have jumped from
the tower to the roof and been saved by
the nets.
Seeing that it was a hopeless task to
attempt to save the building, and as all
who escaped alive had left the roof, the
firemen now directed their efforts to
keep the fire from spreading. The
worlds fair stables, just south of the
big warehouse, were burning, and the
fire had spread to the roofs of several
hotels across Stony Island avenue, just
outside the grounds, which were on fire.
With good deal , of effort the
hotels were saved, but the stables
We're burned to the ground. In
less than two hours from the time the
fire started the big cold storage ware
house was leveled to the ground. a
smoking ruin. 1t is doubtful if any of
the bodies will ever be recovered, so
furious and terrific was the heat-the
building being of wood; and. added to
this, the barrels of oil made the fire one
or the hottest the ire department has
ever had to fight.
A complete and accurate list of the
dead will be difficult to obtain, as many
of the bodies were entirely destroyed,
and not even the officers of the fire
department will know who of their men
are gone until after roll call tonight.
The property loss will probably reach
