German Banks Intend to subscribe for Half the
Loan
CHICAGO, Jan. 1.-THE Evening Post
contains the following:
There was said this morning by those
in position TO have early information on
the subject, to be good reason for believing
that two large German banks intend to
subscribe for $4O,OOO,OOO of the new gov
ernment loan. The Deutsche bank, it was
of the bonds and the Bleichroeders for
$15 100000. 1t was also said that the
imperial council had been largely influ-
enced in consenting to these subscriptions
by the strained relations now existing be-
tween Germany and England.

A Gull for a Confcrence-A Lot of Candidates
In the Race
SALT LAKE. Utah, Jan. 11.-A call has
been signed for conference of the Repub-
lican members of the legislature on Tues
day night next. 1t is believed then the
strength of the several senatorial capdi-
dates will be strongly indicated. There
has been very little change in the situation
during the past week, and no additional
candidates have been developed.
Several candidates claim to have votes
enough to elect. but it is evident that many
members have not fully made up their
minds on this subject and will make no
statement that will bind them in future &C.

He Never Said So

New YORK, Jan. 11.-A special to the
World from London says T. P. O'Connor,
whose paper, the Sun, suggested, during
the beat of the Venezuelan discussion that
in case of war between the United States
and Great Britain the ex-Confederates
would side with the latter, now denies
that he wrote the article. He says he was
absent when it was written and that it
does not reflect his sentiments.

HIS LIGHT is OUT
A Brilliant Youngsters Life Ended by Sui.

q
eide
DENVER, COL, Jan. 1.-THE evidence
seems to be conc lusive that Walter Clark
Nichols, the brilliant young literary light of
New York, who was found dead in bed in
the St. James hotel here, committed sui
eide, although no weapon or poison of any
description was found in the room where
he died. The young man had written three
notes requesting that friends be notified of
his death. One note read:
"Notify my father, S. E. Nichols, Buffalo
Times, Buffalo, N. Y"
Young Nichols confided to his friends
after his arrival in Denver his lear that his
prospects in life had been blighted by his
erra,ic conduct since the first of the year.
His father, who is pension agent at Buffalo,
N. Y, has telegraphed that he will come
on to take his sons corpse home.

1t was said that, as will probably be the
case with large corporations in this coun-
try, the German banks will put in their
bids directly through their representatives
here for the bonds and will also be respon-
sible for q similar interest through the
Morgan syndicate in case the bonds should
be secured by the syndicate.

audience at Corona Saturday night

the whole town, men women and chill

plot in front of Hotel Temescal, seats
having been arranged for several hun
dred. Among those on the platform Wer.
A. j. Condee, j. w. Roberts, f. G. Ha-

Mr.. Wright's speech at Riverside sever
al evenings ago was one of the best de-
livered here during the campaign, but
his Corona speech is said to have sur
passed in interest by far his Riverside
effort. He is forcible speaker and
presents many telling facts in support
of his side of the issue.

He was playing with small loaded

the wound would likely have proved
fatal.

SAN DIEGO, Sept. 7.-Negotiations I'm
the City Of Mexico between the govern
ment and representatives of the Japan
ese Colonization association have been
concluded for aconcession of 5000
acres of land in Chiapas. Advices have
been received here to the effect that the
Japanese will proceed at once to place
the Japanese families and coolies on the
land for growing coffee, tobacco and cot
ton. The land is given to the Japanese
contingent upon making complete sur
veys and the settling of a given num-
ber of families within ten years, each
family to receive a small tract of land
The details of the concession have been
agreed upon by the Mexican authori-
ties and the Japanese, and merely
await ratification.
1t Is the intention of the Japanese, ac-
cording to the statement of the govern
nent commissioner Of commerce and in
dustry, Shoenomoto, to run steamers
from Yokohama via Honolulu to Mexi-
can ports as far south as San Benito
in the state of Chiapas, for the double
purpose Of developing commerce and
providing communication between the
Japanese colony and the home country
The steamers would touch at the most
convenient American port. The cham
ber of commerce here is much elated
over the news from Mexico, as it prac-
tieally settles the question of steamers

Fishing Party-An Ancient Story Of
the Sea


SAN PEDRO, Sept. ITO an invita-
tion of Collector of Customs Charles M
Bell a score Of his friends responded by
getting themselves in readiness yester-
day morning for trip on power yacht.
At 10:30 in the morning the jolly party
boarded the pleasure yacht, with Cap
tain Bell in command. Each of the party
carried bundle of edibles and delica.
cies. When the fresh breeze was struck
out in the open sea, the party began to
render an impromptu program. Fishing
was also indulged in and one of the par
ty was telling fish story for his part
of the program. He related how, the
other day, he caught large yellowtail
and just as he was about to pull the
fish into the boat, the line snapped and
the fish, which weighed just 81 pounds
got away. And one of the unsuspect-
ing innocent ones promptly asked how
he knew it weighed 81 pounds before
he had the fish in the boat? And the
volunteer story teller lost no time in
mildly saying, "By the scales on the
yellowtail's back"
The party returned to San Pedro at
$50 p. m.
The party consisted of the following:
Mrs. Metcalf, Miss Ruby Metcalf, Cliff
ford Metcalf. Mr.. and Mrs. s. c. Foy,
Miss Mary Foy, Miss Edna Foy, Miss
