sharply

But people say David Temple is not

like your shadow wherever you go will

"Think so?" and Olga drew loose
strand of hair through her fingers.

There's Bob Desohalles making a fool
of himself over you, a man with one of
the largest fortunes
"And fool. I'm not exacting when
millions are appended, but draw the

She looked fully at her mother with
open criticism.
Chow little you understand me. If
you knew anything Of character, you'd

CHAPTER XII.
4 Mrs. Ericsson futtered into the green
and white room and stood before Olga.
She looked like quivering interroga-
tion mark.
"Why won't you go to see Irving
\ with the Kents? The invitation has
come at the last moment, but you know
they got the box unexpectedly, SO you
needn't fancy you've been asked just to
fill in.
She surveyed Olga with pleading eyes
and irritated air. Never had she seemed
SO purposely provoking as now, lying
before the window in a steamer chair,
calm, attentive and polite.
''I'm not going, DEAR said Olga,
settling herself at an angle which
Brought added comfort and turning the
fashion magazine she had been reading
face downward on her knee, "because
I'm lazy, because this dry cold makes
my nose an ugly magneta"--
"You have furs;'-

which went first to Martinique, expect
ing 10 effect a junction with Admiral
Cerveras squadron at this island. The
fleet had departed before her arrival
and she was detained there as a sus-
pioious vessel by the French authori-
ties. Word was brought TO Admiral
Sampson that the Twickenham had left
Martinique on Wednesday. The st.
Louis was Immediately dispatched to
intercept her.
Twenty miles out of Kingston on Fri
day night the St. Louis fell in with the
Twickenham. The armed liner showed
only the green and red lights Of mer-
chantman and the collier kept right
ahead on her northward course toward
Guantanamo, where she hoped to be
able TO fad some means Of getting her
coal TO Admiral Cervera's ships in the
harbor Of Santiago. Coming into close
range the st. Louis surprised the COL
lier by sending a shot across her bow.
The Twickenham, instead of stopping,
put on full steam and tried to get
away. Quickly overhauling the Eng
lishman the St. Louis fired again. The
captain Of the collier, seeing flight was
impossible, hove to, and was boarded
by a boats crew from the ST. Louis
The British captain at first made a
vigorous denial that the coal he was
carrying was for the Spanish fleet. His
vessel was searched, however, by the
men from the st. Louis. In the fire room
a man in overalls was found who spoke
Only Spanish. After a vigorous cross
examination by Captain Goodrich of
the ST. Louis. this man admitted that
he was a Spanish officer in charge of
the cargo. On the approach OF the st.
Louis he had thrown his papers and
commission overheard. He appeared to
be badly scared at the way things had
turned out. He was sent as a prisoner
of war TO Key West on board the capt
ured steamer.

tanamo will be only diversion. so 10
speak. and will not require a very large
force for its accomplishment. The seiz-
ure Of Santiago, II is thought, will not
be a difficult undertaking. There can
not be, in the first place, any serious
opposition to the disembarking of
troops. Every point which presents the
least availability as a landing place has
been thoroughly shelled, so that all
shore batteries have been silenced and
Eothing now remains 10 be taken except
the fortifications along the inner har-
Dor of the city itself.
The latter, so far as army reports
show, is not a strongly fortified place.
and the Spanish garrison consists very
largely OF volunteers who have been
drafted into the service and who are
not to be depended upon to put UP a
stout resistance.

AN EyENTFUL WEEK.
War Programme for the Next Few Days
Is Interesting.

Washington, June 14.-Great events
are scheduled for this week in the war
programme. The army is finally to
land on Cuban soil and the progress
that will be made with the Porto Rico
expedition will be such as to insure its
starting very soon. in ten days at the
latest. BY the end of the week also the
first detachment of troops for the Phil
ippines ought to reach Admiral Dewey
and an attack upon Manila will be at
once ordered IL the city has not surren-
dered.
The work for the troops when they
have reached SIMPSONS squadron is
already definitely planned. The first
point of attack will be the city of Guam
tanamo, some fifteen miles inland from
the bay Of the same name, and con-
nected by rail with Caimanera, the
scene of Saturday mornings battle be-
tween the United States marines and
Spanish troops. The latter place is al
ready under the American flag and ii Is
not likely that Admiral Sampson will
allow the adjacent city to remain in the
possession of a Spanish garrison.
Guantanamo bay is to be the base Of
supplies and a shelter for the Ameri-
can fleet and consequently must be alb

dumped thousands of tons Of fuel. and

naval intelligence presents a detailed
account of an immense canal about to
be undertaken by Russia, which will
connect the Black and Baltic seas. and
will enable her TO concentrate her fleets
at either end in less than seven days.
The canals entire length will be 1,OSO

fetal construction will extend only l25

ton is estimated at s97,O0O,00o. and Its
completion is to follow within four

RIGHTS OF BOYC0TTING.
Suit to Begin Next Week Involving the
knights of Labor.

Suit to Begin Next Week Involving the
knights of Labor.
Washington, June 14.-In the district
court next week there will come up for
trial a case in which the local branch
of the Knights of Labor is defendant
and the result of which will be awaited
with national interest. The case is one
involving the rights of organized labor
to boycott those who do not meet its
demands. Owing to the fact that every
phase of the question is supposed TO
be involved in this particular suit and
that moreover both sides have retained
eminent legal counsel, the result or the
trial is reasonably expected to go
long way toward definitely settling this
ch-disputed point in law.
A half-dozen of the leading members
of the local K. of l.. have been GRIM
inally indicted for conspiracy to injure
the business of Charles G. Walter, a
well-known carriage manufactures OF
this city. The indictment sets forth
that prior to the boycott being placed
on his shops by the labor organization
he enjoyed an extensive business, but
i'm the last three years II has been vir-
tually ruined because of the action or
the Knights in declaring him to be "un-
fair to organized labor" In former
cases of similar nature the aggrieved
parties have sought to obtain redress
through the medium of civil suits for
damages. Added interest is therefore
given the present case by the fact that
II Is the first in which the labor leaders
were brought to trial on criminal

Joseph Letter Lets Go of 5000, 900 Bush
els of the Grain.

Chicago, June 14-After a brilliant
campaign stretching over months King
Wheat has suddenly met with a reverse
and the market is all in confusion.
There was a veritable panic among the
bulls. who have been so strongly in
trenched that few believed that their
position could be successfully attacked.
This panic struck the pit on the board
almost before the bell had stopped re-
sounding through the big chamber and
with a whirl and rush the price began
to drop.
In brief the July option sold off IL
cents from Saturdays close, September
slumped 4h and December 37s cents.
When the market opened in the morn
ing July opened all the way from S5
cents down to so cents and before long
IL was down to rs cents. OF course the
name of Joe Letter could be heard on
all sides as being one of the prime fac
tors in the trouble OF the day. L. u.
Letter. his father, was In the city and
all sorts OF stories were sfioat The
one which gained the most credence
was that Letter the younger had, on
the advice of his parent, parted with
some 5000, 900 bushels of the product.
OF course, when this got noised about,
the little fellows tumbled over each
other in their mad rush to get rid of the
slippery stuff. Letter had, IL was said.
determined to get rid of some of his
partners in the deal and had left them
high and dry while he went swimming
ly on down the stream to success. One
Of the immediate effects of the panic
was persistent story to the effect that
Allen, Grier and Cellar. who have been
acting as brokers for Mr.. Letter, were
affected by the big slump.
Joseph Letter is embarrassed but tenn
porarily, according to his own state
ment He was compelled 10 unload
some of his holdings. Exaggerated ru-
mors quickly spread about the streets
and the report was soon spread broad
cast that the great wheat speculator
had assigned and that his father had
withdrawn financial support.
"I have not made an assignment"
said Mr.. Letter, nor do / believe such
will be necessary. I am embarrassed,
however. but only temporarily.

Landing Should Begin Thursday.

The troops should arrive off Santiago
by Wednesday night. supposng the fleet
proceeds at eight knots speed, and
landing operations should begin by
Thursday, for General Shafter will not
keep his men cooped up on shipboard
a moment longer than necessary. 1t is
believed that they will be landed at
Cairnanera, the point on Guantanamo
bay where the American flag now flies
over the heads of Simpsons marines,
as that place, while well adapted to
serve as naval base and as harbor
of refuge for the American warships, is
not particularly well suited for the be-
ginning of military operations.
