Will Not Buy the Anaconda,

NEW YORK, Aug. S.-Several
newspapers have announced that
thel Rothschilds, the well known
financiers of London, were either
negotiating or had concluded nego-
tiations for the purchase OF the
famous Anaconda copper mines Of
Montana. James B. Haggin, one OF
the owners of the Anaconda mines,
when seen, with considerable
emphasis said; "There is not an
atom Of truth in any statement to
the effect that the Rothschilds are
negotiating for the purchase Of the
Anaconda mines. There has been
no approach Of any kind towards
such negotiations. Probably some
inference has been drawn from the
visit of Hamilton Smith to this
country. Mr.. Smith Is connected
with the Rothschilds in business
and he is a great personal friend of
mine. He has visited me during
my stay in New York and perhaps
that is where the story got it's
foundation.

To Sell the Ohio Canal.

AKRON, Ohio, Aug. S.-A propo.
sition has been made the Ohio
board of publieworks by the Wini.
frede Coal and Coke Co., Of Philadel-
phia, to purchase from the state the
Ohio canal. Chief engineer OF the
board, G. E. Perkins, Of this city,
is in correspondence with A. j.
Wright, the company president, re.
gardipg the matter. 1t Is the in
tention, IL the deal is made, to
widen and deepen the waterway
which extends from Portsmouth to
Cleveland, so as to permit the pas
sage Of boats 100 feet long, % feet
beam and u feet draught. The
company has extensive interests in
the Kanawha valley and sends
much freight by that circuitous
route. 1t is estimated that the
company's plan would reduce its
expenses at least one-half. Boats
would be floated to the Ohio river,
thence to Portsmouth and thence
to Cleveland by canal. Here they
would be taken in tow by tugs and
cheaply moved to any point on the
great lakes. The board has no
power to act in the matter, but it
will come before the legislature at
its next session..

The Mail Carries the Puzzle.

WASHINGTON, Aug. s. Assist
ant secretary of the post office
department has rendered a de-
cision as to the puzzle device EN-.
ployed by some newspapers to in
crease circulation. The Chicago
Times Herald has been awarding
bicycles to boys and girls who
would cut out and paste together
and name correctly disarrsnged
fragments Of portraits Of people
notable in politics, art, the drama,
or war. To this the Chicago post
master objected on the ground that
the scheme was a lottery. Mr..
Kohlsaat, owner of the Times-Her-
aid called at the department yes
terday and asked for a ruling.
Judge Thomas decided that II the
awards went by merit, and not by
chance, the idea was not lottery,
but on a par with the award OF
prizes in a school or college.

WHO DEMILRI KALLIAs Is.
China Must Answer.

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-The Unit
ed States anticipated Great Britain
in taking the most energetic steps
for the protection OF American
missionaries in China. The injus-
tice OF criticism that has been ut
tered in some quarters upon the
alleged indifference OF United
States Minister DENLY is fully
shown by a mail dispatch that has
Just come to the State Department
from the minister. 1t Is dated to-
wards the close OF June and shows
that Mr.. DENLY has made sweep
ing and peremptory demand upon
the Chinese government similar to
that made yesterday by the Brit
ish minister to Pekin, for the
fullest protection for all Ameri-
cans living in China; for redress
for the depredations committed
upon their property and persons,
and finally for the capital punish
ment of the perpetrators. Just
what answer was returned by the
Chinese government is not known,
as it has not yet reached the state
Department, but it is fact, so far
as the department is informed, in
all of the recent outrages commit
ted upon the missionaries in Chi
ma not one American was killed or
injured, and while some American
mission property was destroyed, it
will doubtless be promptly paid
for. In view OF the energetic
course which Mr.. DENLY has al
ready adopted the state depart
ment has not deemed it necessary
to send him further instructions
for his guidance. He has already
been authorized to confer freely
with Admiral Carpenter, the COM
mander of our naval forces in Chi
nese waters, and the Admiral in
turn has been instructed by the
Secretary of the Navy to lend all
proper assistance for the protection
of Americans.

LITTLE Rock, Aug. S.-Chancery
court here has decided the cele.
brated Glazer case, in which two
wives contended for the possession
of the valuable estate Of John B.
Glazer.
About twenty years ago Glazer
turned up in Little Rock and To-
Gated here. 1t seems that he left
behind him in Pennsylvania a
wife and six children. His family
heard nothing from him during
his remaining lifetime, and did not
know what became Of him. After
living in this city few years,
Glazer married again. He became
the owner of valuable real estate
in this city. After Glazer's demise
both widows sought possession OF
the property. The commission ap-
pointed by Chancellor Martin to
distribute the property, filed a re-
port Yesterday certifying that 1t
had set apart one acre Of land in a
square, for homestead for susan
nah M. Glazer, who is wife No 2,
and also set apart dover OF three
acres for Mary A. Glazer, who Is
wife No. /.
The finding Of the court, upon
which the commission distributed
the property, is as follows, in sub.
stance: John B. Glazer at the time
OF his death, February Is, 1856, was
the lawful husband Of Mary A.
Glazer. He had never gotten a d.
vorce from said Mary A. Glazer,
and his pretended marriage to
Susannah NJ. Glazer was void. The
six children of Glazer by Mary A.
Glazer are the only children and
lawful heirs of the deceased. Mary
A. Glazer loses her right OF home
stead in and to one acre OF the
property, which had been acquired
by wife No. 2 by the statute of linn
itation. The right OF action OF the
children to the one acre has not
yet accrued, and will not accrue
until the death of the mother, at
which time they will be immedi-
ately entitled to the fee in said one
acre. Therefore wife No. 2 is entitled
to possession thereof during the
natural life of wife No. l. The
right of dover OF wife No. l to all
the rest of the land Is declared and
recognized.

ton or Deprivation of constitu-
tIonal Rights.
WINNIPEG, Man., Aug. S.-The
declaration of an eastern news
paper, that If Manitoba did not
obey the order to restore Roman
Catholic parochial schools it would
be whipped into submission by
force of arms, has intensified the
bitterness here.
The Tribune, the organ OF
Premier Greenwsy, in an article
headed "The crisis approaching"
says: Manitoba will not be
whipped into subsection to that ri
diculous aggregation which sup
poses it is governing the country /;
on the contrary it proposes subju-
eating that aggregation. Let there
be no Misunderstanding. Ii the
imperial privy council should at
any time exceed it's jurisdiction,
and by doing so, should injuriously
effect the interest OF Manitoba,
this province may be counted upon
to question its jurisdiction. Mani.
toba is truly layal and not mock
loyal community. True loyalty is
not unreasoning subserviency, and
true loyalty is not incompatible
with resistance to the oppressive
or coercive restriction or depri.
walton of constitutional rights"

MRS. BARNUM MARRIEs.
Her Husband is a Greek--The Az
fair Kept Quiet-Mrs. Kallais'
Marriage to Barnum Quite
Romantic

New YORK, Aug. S.-Mrs. P. T.
Barnum, wife OF the great show
man was married in this city to
Demitili Kallais Bey, who is said
to be Greek. The ceremony was
quiet. There was manifested on
the part of those Immediately con-
cerned, a disposition to keep the
affair a profound secret. Mrs.
Bey declined to talk about the
marriage. The bride and groom
are at the Plaza hotel for the
present, but will sail for Europe
soon. The date of their departure
has not been positively settled. A
civil marriage is said to have been
held in the office of Ex-Governor
Ingersoll, and religious ceremony
later performed at the Greek Ortho-
dox chapel. Mr.. Barnum met the
woman who became Mrs. Kallias
in q romantic manner. She was
the daughter of Lancashire, Eng,
cotton miller named Fish. In 1858
Mr.. Barnum lectured in Manches-
ter, and after the lecture Mr.. Fish
called on the great Snowman to
tell him that his success in life was
due to his reading of Mr.. Barnum's
autobiography, which fired his am
bition to make money. When Mr..
Fish built a new mill, his daughter
christened the engine "Barnum."
After the death of the first Mrs.
Bsrnum, Mr.. Fish visited America.
His daughters letters so delighted
Mr.. Barnum that, as he put it, he
fell in love with her before he saw
her. They were married in 1874.
The marriage was happy one.
Mr.. Barnum's children by his first
wife became devoted to their step
mother.

Dear Sir-Referring to your pro.

ton of Defender for alleged viola
ton of Sec. 2, rule 16, racing rules,
and referring to your later re-
quest at the Vineyard for a post
ponement of a decision until the

consideration the committee has

cannot sustain the protest.
Yours Respectfully,

The second letter reads: Our
committee regret your decision ito
retire from the races; we also re-
greet your published statement that
racing rules are not being properly
enforced, and for this statement we
consider there is no warrant.
