THE promises made by the repub-
licans in the campaign of 1896 are
rapidly being redeemed. Not only has
q new tariff law been promptly placed
upon the statute books and reached a
stage in which it is producing su fficient
revenue to meet the running expenses
of the government, but reports from
all parts of the country continue to
show increased activity in business and
manufactures. Here is summary
from last weeks developments, from
Dun's Review: STRIKERS at one Fall
River cotton mill have resumed work
and several more southern mills have
been added. One more iron furnace in
Ohio, new tiL-plate plant in Pennsyl-
vania, and wire-nail estab-
lishment in Washington have
started, and the Bessemer departm
at Bethlehem has resumed. Many
works are crow ding production to the
utmost, and the Pennsylvania Steel
company reports 4l9 men employed
at full time and some extra time,
against 3,742 employed three days per
week year ago. So arge a part of
the works are now fully employed,
though this is usually the dull season,
that no great increase is to be expact-
ed"

Don't Like 1t,

The Spanish ambassador at Berlin
complains bitterly that there are some
half q dozen United States cruisers
living off the coast Of Spain, practical
ly blockading her ports. The situation,
according to the smbas. ador, is such
that declaration of war cannot be
any longer averted. Spain will defend
herself. a. will save her honor, he de-
clsres. She does not expect to be able
to do much injury to the strongly de-
Tended seaports of the United States,
and does not hope to give any great
naval battle to the American fleet.

THE appointment of Col. Thomas II

THE appointment of Col. Thomas h.
Baker for marsha for the western dis

veteran journalist, and one of the most
prominent republicans in the state.
Heis peculiarly and eminently fitted
for the position, and while he will
make the Cover nment an able and
efficient Off -er, he Will be worth thou

BRYAN gave nine reasons for fusion
against republicans. Only one reason
is needed. The republican party is too
strong to be tackled by any other, and,
in fact, all the others combined fell
short in 1896.

Special Dispatch to The Call.

MIDVALE, Nebr., Oct. 16.-At the al
tar to-day Harry Keldar refused to
marry Miss Genevieve Ransom because
he detected the odor of cigarettes on
her breath. Like many another society
girl, Miss Ransom was wont to indulge
occasionally with her girl friends. Kel-
dar discovered the fact some time be-
fore the date was set for the wedding
and said he could not stand it, so Miss
Ransom promised to smoke no more.
But shortly before the hour set for
the marris ge ceremony one of the
bridesmaids offered her a cigarette.
The yound lady could not resist, so she
smoked "just once more" A few mo-
ments later she stood beside the groom
in her parents drawing room. The
house was filed with guests.
AS the clergyman commenced the
ceremony Keldar shifted suspiciously
Then he leaned forward with his face
close to the brides.
you've been smoking again." he ex-
claimed.
Miss Ransom vouchsafed no reply.
without another word keldar turned
and walked out of the house.
The bride tainted. The groom's
friends hurried out to bring him back,
but Keldar wouldn't go. Nor would
Miss Ransom have accepted him had
he changed his mind. The match has
been declared off and Keldar is pre-
pairing to leave town.

THE DISASTER Is
UTTERLY INExPLICABLE

FALMOUTH, Oct 16.-John II. His
lop, the New York yachtsman, who was
saved, in the course of an interview
this afternoon condemned the double
railing around the ships boats, which,
he said, impeded the launching. The
masthead light, in his opinion, should
have been an oil instead of an electric
lamp, as in that event it would not
have been extinguished, but would have
furnished a beacon to guide the life
boats.
Mr.. Williams, the company's mana
ger, says the disaster is utterly inexpli-
cable. The ship was new, he asserts,
while the captain and crew were most
reliable. He says the crews of the COM
pany's vessels have constant boat prac-
tice, and he is indignant at the insinu-
ations regarding the condition of Cap
tain Griffith.
Up to midnight fifty-one bodies had
been recovered. Some were found miles
away, in coves; and it is expected more
will be washed ashore tomorrow.
Many persons undoubtedly were
killed by being dashed on the rough
rocks, who would have escaped if cast
ashore on an ordinary coast. Some of
the bodies are horribly mangled. A
great deal of jewelry and money have
been found.
AS all the navigating officers were
lost, it is doubtful whether light will
ever be thrown on the cause of the dis
aster.
All the flags ashore and on the boats
in the bay are at half-mast.

received a telegram from Mrs.

bound for her home in San Francisco.
There is a possibility that she was
aboard some boat that has landed in
an out of the way place. but the
chances seem to be against it."
