SPANISH DONS AND UNCLE SAM,
FEELING THAT AMICABLE RE
LATIoNS WILL OBTAIN.
spain's Reply to the Offer of Media
ton Hopes the United States Will
Act Loyalty and Correctly.

Madrid, Nov 2.-Marshal Blanco,
the new captain general of Cuba, has
sent a cable message to the Spanish
government saying he has formed a
favorable opinion regarding the pros
poets for the pacifcation of Cuba. Re-
plying to the offer, of mediation made
by the United States, Spain says she
hopes the United States will act 10y
ally and correctly in helping Spain to
pacify Cuba, especially in view of the
fact that such an extended form of
autonomist government is to be sin
cerely granted" The general feeling
here is more hopeful of a peaceful out
come of the situation between United
States and Spain, especially since
Marshal Blanco's arrival in Havana
as it is expected his presence will
greatly further the solving of the Gu
ban problem. AT the same time it is
pointed out that the submission of the
insurgents cannot be expected unless
they are entirely abandoned by the
United States

Maryland In the absence Of Presi1

Chicago, Nov. 2.-Wheat started
weak at from 95s4 to 957s for Decem-
Der. about 1bc. below the closing prices
of the day before. The tendency dur
ing the greater part of the forenoon
was toward a further break and that
was made easy by the dullness of

wheat on the spot there was 11ad.
higher than it closed the day before.
The futures opened from ed. to sd.
per Genital lower. A report from st.
Louis said five mills had closed there,
the reason given being that they could
not sell their flour at profit based ON
present prices of wheat.
Argentine crop news continued to be
of it's previous favorable complexion.
Further rains have fallen throughout
the drought stricken district east of
the Mississippi and material i'm

clever people find hilarious opportuni-

whose scene with the mirror was the
most laughable and original thing in
the comedy, and Miss May Vokes as
lilly, the slavey. We strongly recon-
mend Miss Maynard to try another

IMPLEMENTS OF FRAUD.
Loaded Dice, Marked Cards anc

LOaQeQ O1ce, marked CarQS ana
Other Bunco Schemes
Seattle acknowledgement: A few days
ago the proprietor of a saloon in thisci
received in a sealed envelope through
the regular mail so-called catalogue
of sporting goods that made him open
his eyes. He had read of green-goods
letters, and had seen many an overture
to dealers from bunco men and other
sharpers. but never in his life had he
seen anything quite so bold and IN
blushing as this invitation to become
the partner in a fraud. On comforting
with some of his fellow craftsmen. he
found that they had also received cop
les of the circular. AS far as a
Post-Intelligencer reporter could learn,
the circular has not been sent to deal
ers who sell sporting goods, but only
to those who use dice and cards for
games in their own establishments.
The chief regularity of the circular is
that it contains the name of the dealers
in fraudulent goods printed in conspic-
Nous letters on the front page of the
cover. Inside the circular presents a
varied assortment. 1t enumerateS
slayouts'' for faro, baccarat, roulette.
hazard, chuckuck mustang, red and
black. together with crap tables, dice
and checks Of all kinds. All these. how
ever. are in the regular aDG legitimate
line of such supplies, and there is moth
ing to mark them as different from the
goods of any other dealer. They occupy
q subordinate and obscure place on the
pages of the catalogue. Its display
sheets and attractive type are given to
a different class of articles. On the
second page the warning is extended
to prospective purchasers: Positively
no examination win be allowed on load
ed dice or marked cards, as we have
10 protection from ringers being work
ed on express agents"
The first article heralded is q peculiar
line of dice for craps whose graces are
sung in the following words: I'VE are
the leaders in this line. and have COM
binations that no other house has ever
produced. We make dice to get the
norey for you. and guarantee them to
do it. What more do you want? Times
are hard, and you cannot afford to take
any chances with the square bones. We
use only the finest material in load
ing dice and guarantee them not to
rattle or get loose, ard can suit you in
ANYTHING in the line If you are ont
for the money, give US d trial order"
Concerning bankers set No. 80. miss

chulalongkorn's Useful Orders.

Paris Messenger: People gradually
begin to discover the great advantages
of the decorations so largely distrib-

better fares the Russian premier, Count
