INSTRUCTED TO DO No More Advertis
ing for Canadian Ports.

WASHINGTON, March Ex-senator Will
son. OF Washington, called the attention
of the state department today to a recent
report of Consul Dudley, at Vancouver,
in which Canadian ports and Canadian
routes to the klondike were extolled at
some length. He said that this report had
been used by the Canadian Pacific road
as an advertisement, to the detriment OF
American roads and American ports in the
Pacific. which were doing a large out
fitting business for the gold regions OF
Alaska. -
The state department has notified Con-
sui Dudley that hereafter his reports
must not favor foreign interests, In COM
petition with those in the United States.

This encroachment on American soil Is

the truth of the fact that stations have

Is confirmed by an Associated Press let

with James ID. Esary, who arrived here
yesterday on the City Of Seattle. Mr..
Pollock's letter follows:
DYEA, March Much excitement has
been caused here and at Skagway the past

No indemnity for Armenia,s Horrors.

No Indemnity for Armenia's Horrors.
Turkey has again sounded defiance
to Europe in repudiating absolutely all
responsibility for losses occasioned by
the Armenian massacres and refusing
in consequence to consider any claims
for indemnity. The United States,
Great Britain, France and Italy were
directly concerned in the massacres
because of their missionary interests,
and each government demanded rep
aration for losses of life and property.
In the present state Of European at
fairs it would be impossible to secure
a union Of interests to exert a pres
sure on Turkey; hence it is almost
certain. that no coercive action will be
taken on this blunt refusal. It is to
be noted that since Great Britain and
Russia became seriously involved in
their respective Chinese interests Tur-
key has done about as she pleased
Because OF her great unpaid debt
Turkey is today practically a vassat
of Russia, and the latter, by threats
to force or promise to let up on the
debt settlement, can WELD her as it
wishes. Just now Russia's leading
policy is to embarrass Great Britain

The Latest Story About Verdi.

Here is charming story about Yer
di, just hot from Italy. A farmer, liv-
ing in the depths of the country, was
very DESTROYS to hear one Of the illus
trious composers operas. So, better
late than never, he took his ticket,
travelled up to Milan, and, securing a
good seat, heard Aida He was very
much disappointed, and wrote to Yer
di to say so, adding that he did not like
the music at all, and that under these
circumstances he hoped that Verdi
would see the reasonableness of at
once returning him his money. There
was his railway fare, his ticket of ad-
mission, and his supper at Milan, for
which he inclosed the bill. The grand
old maestro entered fully into the hui
NOR of the situation. He wrote back a
polite letter regretting that his music
had failed to please, inclosing the rail-
way fare and the price of admission.
But he added that, asthe farmer would
have had to provide himself with sup
per at home, he. could not admit the
justice Of that part of his claim, and
he absolutely declined to pay for his
supper at Milan.

GREAT LOCOMOTIVE
Doctor Raub Claims to Have Effected Wonder
ful Economics and to Have Increased
Their Efficiency.

The run by rail between New York
and Washington is soon to be reduced
to three hours. This revolution in
railway travel is to be brought about
by the Baltimore and Ohio railway
company by means Of new locomo-
tive, invented by DR.. D. C.. Raub. The
Baltimore and Ohio railroad is to be
equipped with the engines as rapidly
as they can be built. A speed of eigh-
ty-two miles an hour has been at
tanned, the run between Port Jervis
and Jersey City on the Erie railroad,
88 miles, being run in an hour and
II minutes, including seven minutes
for stops. Doctor Raub gives the fol-
lowing interesting account Of the evo-
luton Of the new locomotive, and a
description of it: Looking for sym
metry of construction and stability of
movement as the first requisites of a
perfect engine, and in order to deter
mine which engines possesses these
properties in the highest degree, I
