Fever.


LONDON. Sept l. The Pail Mall Gazette
to-day publishes a long letter from
Bangkok, Siam, saying the city is in a
fever of excitement on account OF repeated
announcements that the King was dead.
Many people believe the news was sent
out in order to test public opinion, and
that the real facts have been withheld for
state reasons. Members of the diplo-
matte corps, it is added. share the gen.
eral ignorance on the subject. The British
Minister has requested that another gun
boat be sent from Hong-Kong in view of
the alarming rumors.
In high Siamese circles it is ascertained
the King is suffering from fever, the real
cause of his ailment being indulgence In
chloral. There Is small hope of recovery.

SUGAR SPECULATION.
1t Causes the Failure of a Big
Gotham Firm.
Confession Made at a Meeting of
Creditors by Junior
Member.

New YORK. Sept. 1. - Unsuccessful
speculation in sugar by junior partner
was the cause of The failure of the large
knitting manufacture house of Theodore
S. Baron & Co.. and of S. Baron, of this
city. The confession was made to a meet
ing Of the firms creditors by the younger
Baron, who places his loss at S7100. The
latter is a son of the senior mem Der of the
firm.
This year S. Baron 6 Co. did a prosper
Gus business. and when an assignment was
made last month it was surprise to the
trade. Counsel for the firm said to-day
that the assets were $122, 132 48; prefer
ences, $4,000; liabilities. S1S5,OOO. The
firm has hoped to pay 3S11 cents on the
dollar, but instead submitted PROPOSE
ton for 25 cents on The dollar.
This basis Of settlement did not meet
with the approval of the cred itors. The
creditors examining the statement sheet
noticed an unexplained deficit of S7lOO,
and asked for an explanation. The younger
Baron was visibly agtated land his face
flushed as he said:

THE TARIFF.
Senate Bill or Nothing Seems
to Be the Situation at
the Capitol.
House Tariff Reformers Called to the
White House by the President
for settled House.

WAsHISGToN. July 29.-When the tar
i'll conference broke up the house mem
bers were disposed to hold out stffiy for
considerable concessions on cutlery and
stell rails. The prospects now are that
the rates on rails will be lowered some
what. but that the cutlery rate will not
be changed. The senate cenferees prob
ably will accept the house rate of 81 per
pound on wrapper tobacco. retaining the
senate phraseology. There will also be
some changes In the wool schedule, the
most important OF which probably will
be in the paragraph relating to cloth for
mems wear. Bottom cloth and cotton
yarns will probably be reduced to the
extent OF about tive per cent. as will
laces and embroideries. on which the
rate will probably he made forty five
instead of Fifty cents. The rate on china
and earthenware. which are slightly
higher than those ~ the senate bill. will
be accepted.
The presidents desire to see Mr.. Viii
con before the conference opened,
coupled with Speaker Crisps call at the
White house yesterday, and the presi-
dents request Of Mcmillan to come to
the White house last night, were all ac-
cepted in congressional circles as evi.
dence that the president was willing To
let Chairman Wilson and Mcmillan know
exactly what his opinion was before the
conference was resumed. When the visit
81 Mr. Wilson TO the White house be-
came known among members it was felt
N both sides that settled policy on
the part Of the administration had been
agreed on.

About Cooking

In the days when our English fore
fathers were more concerned about plenty
Of hard fighting than about the way
their food was prepared, the proverb
God sends meat but the devil sends
cooks must have been uttered by some
tough old warrior who was wrestling
with an unsavory dinner. Since that
time, the world has been reaching the
conclusion that means of gauging the
civilization OF people is the state OF
their cookery, and now a great deal OF
attention is paid to gastronomic science.
Cooking schools have been established
in the cities. manyof our public ward
schools give cooking lessons two or three
times week, while this year the Mime
sofa School of Agriculture holds sum
mer school Of dairying and cooking for
women. What we eat has become OF i'm

because events early this week lead
many to infer that no change II tariff
would be made.
The internal revenue receipts on
whiskey suddenly dropped more than
hnlf, and sales Of wool greatly increased.
But the uncertainty is not removed. and
much Of the business done seems to be
in the nature Of insurance against possi
bilities. In wooden goods the famine
which clothiers prepared for themselves
by deferring orders, is such that impera-
tive necessities now keep most Of the
mills at work, and the'purchases Of wool
for immediate use are large. But there
is no change for the better ss respects
orders running into the future, and in
deed some concerns have been with
drawing spring samples, on which very
low prices had been fixed, and will make
no efforts for trade at present.
Sales of wool have been greatly swelled
/ by speculations in the belief that wool
is not likely to decline in any event, and
will advance SHARPLY if tariff changes
fail. Sales for the week we're 90S4. .l0O
