royal honors.
The plans for Lii Hung Changs visit to
the United States have been greatly cur
tailed. He will hurry home in haste and
it is hinted that this is due to intrigues
against him in China. He will arrive in
New York August 81, Friday, and will
hold his first reception on Saturday, the
following day. On Sunday, August 90,
he will take an early train for Philadel-
phia, where he will lunch and remain
for few hours.
During the afternoon he will proceed
to Washington, where he will remain
the week. He will then go direct to

not stop at Chicago. In Washington he
hopes to see all the secretaries after au-
dience with President Cleveland, when
he will present his credentials.
Ii Hung Chang today proceeded to
Trafalgar square, where one of the
members of his suite placed a wreath
upon the pedestal of the Gordon statue,
which Ii closely examined with an
opera glass. after which he made a SOL
emn and deep obeisance before it. The
chinese envoy's example was followed
by his suite, and the crowd of onlookers
cheered. The wreath was composed of

emblematic of victory, and had a border

1t was inscribed: ''To the soldier and
friend of Chira-a tribute of respect

The Chinese statesman then drove to

the one upon the wreath placed upon the

the money from messenger and placed

made out his payroll and when he went
for the money it was gone. A search re-
vealed the fact that square hole had
been cut in wooden partition against
which the back of the cabinet rested.
The piece of wood sawed out had been
retained in place by hinges and the work
must have been done the night before
by some one very familiar with the place
and its customs. While Ciprico was en-
gagged with his payroll the thief had
opened his little trap door, cut out the
thin back of the cabinet and walked off
with two sacks of gold No trace of the

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.-During the
past month the work Of the Venezuelan
! boundary commission has entered upon
a new stage. Heretofore the efforts OF
the commissioners have been directed
mainly to securing the evidence upon
which the final report is to be based.
The work from now on will largely
consist of classifying the information
already obtained. The British govern
ment. 1t is presumed, has put into its
two voluminous blue books all the in
formation upon which it relies in SUD-
port of Its claim. The Venezuelan
government has done the same thing in
It's three volumes of transcripts from the
Spanish archives. Independently of
this, the commission has been searching
on its own account. The congressional
library In Washington and many public
and private libraries in various parts of
the country have been rasacked for his
torical and cartographical information.
The archives at The Hague have been
gone through with thoroughness that
not even the zeal of Great Britain or
venezuela has heretofore attempted,
and as result important documents
which the world thought lost or de-
stroyed have been unearthed. This
work. although not yet terminated, is
nearing completion.
For some months past Sir Clement r.
Markham, president of the Royal Geo.
graphical society, has been in corre-
spondence with the secretary of the
commission and has furnished consider
able valuable information on the sub
ject of the Schomburg line accompany
ing it by copies Of maps on file in the
colonial office. some of which have never
been published. While information is
looked for from Rome. from The Hague
and possibly from other places, the bulk
of the evidence is in and the question
now is to determine what that evidence
establishes.
In order to serve this problem, a num-
Der of preliminary reports are being
prepared. Among those may be men
toned special reports upon the geo.
graphical and physical characteristics
or the region in dispute; reports upon
the evidence presented by the 300 or
more maps which have been published;
reports upon the facts of occupancy and
settlement as given by historians. and
separate reports upon the same facts as
developed by the documents from
Dutch and Spanish archives; critioues
upon the arguments of British and Ven
ezuelan governments as these appear in
the British blue book and in the Vene-
zuelan brief. These. reports are being
prepared for the most part by the COM
missioners at their respective summer
homes.
President Brewer spent several days
this week at the office of the commission
in Washington. He was Joined on
Thursday by Mallet Provost, the secre-
tary, and the two spent the day in con-
sultation.

home in Vermont, and the secretary will
remain for some days in Washington,

One Of the most hatly contest

elect Mckinley we've less 81, we
bow to the will of the majority
and will do all i'm our Lower to
promote the welfare of orr com

monrn over the fact that tho
boast of Mark Hanna and his able
iieutenants, that they would by
every State in the Union, but that
they wonld elect Mckinley have
been literally carried out. The
returns from the doubtful States
show that money has been poured
out i'll streams and that sound (0
money not honest money, really
did carry the day. But this is
not the end Of the question of

the day that they voted against
the greatest man the country has
ever produced in favor of Major
