to this very laborious work, and the
results that they have accomplished have
been more than satisfactory, for they
have preserved papers of very great
value TO the city OF Providence, besides
preparing history of the work of our
civil government from the earliest times.
Although the services OF the commits

all the more meritorious, and they are en-
titled to the thanks of the community

A Greater Providence.
There has been a great deal Of interest
manifested of late among the residents OF
Olneyville and of some parts of Cranston,
and i have had many interviews With
representative taxpayers in those towns,
looking to the annexation OF additional
territory to the city OF Providence. 1t
seems to me that II is only
question of time when the
southerly boundary OF the city
OF Providence will be the Pawtuxet river,
taking in the city water works, and thence
running in sJsne northwesterly, taking in
those sections of Cranston and Johnston
that are now agitating the question OF
annexation. i am strongly in favor of
this movement, and trust that 1t will meet
with your approval, for / believe il Is but
natural that the section OF Johnston ad-
joining the city at Olneyville Square
should desire to become in fact part OF
the city OF Providence.
In conclusion, / desire to extend my
thanks to the heads of the different de-
partments for the information and assist
ance they have at all times afforded me,
and desire also to thank the members
OF the City Council for the interest they
have taken and the cooperation they
have given me in promoting the welfare of
the city during the past year. In the work
of municipal legislation that we are now
entering upon for another year l urge
upon you to give me your hearty support
and assistance to the end that when wo
close our official term of Office it may be
said of us that we have given to the
management Of the city's affairs our earn
est and best thoughts and that faithful
and patriotic service which is the founda-
tion of good government and contributes
to the permanent upbuilding of a great
and prosperous city.

1t is true that New York has some
beautiful women who dress not only ex-
travagantly but in good taste, but from
observations made in other cities want
to just say word for the handsome ladies
in Providence. Any afternoon the past
week visitor to Roger Williams park
would have been convinced that the
assertion was well founded in regard to
beautiful femininity right here in our
midst and that in New York or any other
city II would be hard to surpass the Pro-
vidence maiden for style and the manner
in which she followed the prevailing
fashions.

his teeth extracted. Under DIR. Tilling-

eye tooth, which did not readily respond,
and he told me he didn't experience the

Ward MacAllister, in recent article,

the upper 400 of society demanded among
other things that men and women buy
their clothing abroad. The men, says

The continued and rapid growth OF the
public schools Is both gratifying and en-
barrassirg; gratifying as indicating the
hold the schools have upon public approval
and the increased attention given TO edu-
cation as the city grows; and embarrass-
ing from the difficulty TO provide accom-
modations for tho increased mum bers
which every spring crowd the schools.
Providence Is entering upon an era OF
rapid growth, the several steps OF which
can be measured most easily by tho in-
creased attendance In the public schools.
IL must be borne IN mind, however, that
the public schools are growing faster
than the city itself. as the private schools
are relatively diminishing I'm attend

They Regard 1t as a Sign That the Party Realizes it's Need Of
 Western Support.

By the Associated Press
 CLEVELAND, June 21.-The eighth national convention of Republican clubs closed today. All week there were apprehensions of an embarrassing fight on the silver question but nothing was disposed of in all proceedings SO quickly or 80 quietly as that matter.
 The committee on resolutions had settled the question last night by decid- ing to report that the league had no constitutional right to adopt resolutions and it's report to that effect was ap- proved.
 The silver men are elated. They gay that if free silver was not adopted noth- ing else would be done, that it indi, oates thet the Republicans concede that they cannot get along without the western states. It is we'll known that telegrams were received yesterday and today from presidential aspirants and leading Republicans in all parts of the country suggesting that any action on silver would be dangerous and these actions no doubt did much toward hay. ing the hot poker dropped. The free silver men all expressed satisfaction and the anti-silver men as a rule would not express any opinion.
 The effort to divert the attention from silver to the tariff as an issue con- tinued today. Speeches in the conven. tion as we'll as at the banquet last night and elsewhere were all on that llne. When the Tippecanoe and other local clubs went to the depot tonight to meet Governor Mckinley. an Iowa band of Allison men headed the process sion. There was every possible effort to make week of silver agitation end in big boom for tariff as an issue o the Repu ubiicans.

THE CHINESE LOAN.
American Capitalists May Se-
 cure It.
In That Event There Will Be An Un- precedented Shipment of Silver
 From the United States.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
 WASHINGTON, June 2l.-OficIals of the Chinese legation say American capitalists who are negotiating in China to secure the loan of 100000, taels which China is about to pay Japan, are by no means urging vague or futile suit and that they stand quite as good chance of securing the loan as any other money representatives.
 There is much interesting specula. tion as to the result of the loan. Ii it is secured by American parties It is said that the first result would be the shipment of an unprecedented amount of silver. But as China's bonds are payable in gold the ultimate result would be to bring back gold for silver paid to Japan.
 It is pointed out also that the inter- est on the entire loan will not exceed $5 ,OOO, ,OO0 annually so that the Chinese customs receipts of $23,000.000 will readily meet the interest charges and provide sinking fund for the redemp- tion of the bonds which will probably run for twenty years.

AN ARIZONA IBEx
Discovered by Miner in the Super
 stition District.

Discovered by Miner in the Super
 stition District.
 E. B. Chalk, miner and prospector, came in from the Superstition district yesterday and reported the killing by him in the mountains of an animal which is believed to be an ibex. Ac. cording to writers on natural history this animal is not represented in the fauna of the new world and is sad to be confined to narrow districts in the mountains of Switzerland and Abys- sinia and within a small territory in the Caucasus range. The animals in each of these localities differ slightly from those in the others, though suffi- cient characteristics are marked 10 prove that all belong to the same fam. fly.
 A few years ago two animals said to be ibexes were discovered by hunter about 200 miles west of Lakeview, Ore. The animal shot by MT. Chalk had curved horns about twenty inches in length. Its color was grayish white, in which respect it resembled the Caucasian variety, the Abyssinian and Swiss animals being brown or lawn color. On his return to Phmnix MT Chalk will bring the head of the ani nal he killed. The conformation ot the horns alone will show whether il was an ibex, for no other animal has similarly shaped horns except the goat but in none of the varieties of the goa, do the horns attain so great length.

The Canal Dragged a Distance of Three Miles.
Only Two Additional Circum- stances Learned Yesterday.
The Missing Man Had Bought a Re- volver and Was Seen Sitting on
 the Bank of the Canal.

B. Muller, whose strange disappear ance from 427 West Adams street was announced by THE REPUBLICAN yester- day, 1s still missing. The search for him which had been discontinued at midnight, was resumed early yesterday morning and kept up until nightfall. Only two clues were discovered, neither of much value in finding him either alive or dead. A zanjero of the Salt River canal said he saw him, or man who looked like him, sitting on the bank of the canal beyond the Five Points on Thursday morning.
 The other clue was discovery that he or man filling his description had purchased revolver at Talbot 6s Hub bard's on Wednesday.
 Yesterdays hunt leaves little doubt | that he is dead and the theory that | he had thrown himself into the canal being generally accepted the canal was dragged for distance of three miles below the point where he was last seen. It seemed hard | ly probable that the body could have been carried farther than that, though the current is quite strong. The search will be continued today along the canal and if the body should not be found it will certainly be found tomorrow when the water is turned out.
 The revolver story led the hunt in other directions. man would not buy a revolver for the purpose of drowning himself, though he might change his mind about the method of suicide. The whole country along the canal for distance Of mile or more was thoroughly beaten. It would take days though to make complete search for there. are thousands of acres of ssgebrush and gresse-wood in which 6
 body might be hidden until searchers should fairly stumble over it.
 His grief. stricken and lonely wife has given up all hope; she believes that he has carried out his purpose half ex- pressed in his deepondency during the last week.
