The party then went to the detention hospital by road that passed in the rear of the general hospital. The graveyard, in which sixty or seventy plain wooden crosses stood, was near the road on the left. The president solemnly raised his hat.
 President Mckinley went through all the wards of the detention hospital in the same careful way in which he had gone through those of the general hospital When he came to the last ward, Major R. T. Ebert said:
 This is a dangerous ward" and, turning to Secretary of War Alger. inquired: DO you think the president had better go in here?" ---..-os
 MT. Mckinley, without waiting to hear what MT. Alger's reply would be, started into the ward. General Ager and the oth- CTS of the party remained outside The presidential party then drove through lines of cavalry drawn upon every side of 5the road to General Wheelers headquarters and sat under the shade of a tent fly for 8 while The president saw Colonel John Jacob Astor in a group few yards away and he beck oned to the colonel, who went over, shook hands with the president and sat a few minutes with the party
 Return to Their Posts ss The president and those with him took lunch with General Wheeler and his staff. After lunch the president issued an order directing that the regular troops east of the Mississippi should return to their posts without the least possible delay. r ..t

THE FORMER SAYS NOTHING
Pail Mall Gazette Asserts That an Agree

GERMANY's SUPPORT WELCOMED
Berlin Papers Says Germany is Not h. clined to Enter an Allianoe-Mere- ly Arrangement for Anglo
 German Portugal Loan.

London, September S-Little credence is attached in well-informed quarters to the reported Anglo-German alliance.
 In the past fortnight the German ambas- sador has almost daily interviews with MT. Baifour, who is acting as foreign secretary, and the rumor mentioned is conjecture founded on these visits.
 IL Is regarded as highly probable that Bal four has been engaged in negotiating an arrangement for the reconstruction of the mixed tribunal in Egypt, whose existence expires by lapse of time next year
 Germany would demand some consdera- ton for siding with England in this matter and an arrangement is hinted at by which pelagoa Bay is to be acquired from Portu- gal on the understanding that Germany is to obtain certain trading facilities there
 Beyond this there is believed to be noth- Ing In the air between England and Ger many at present.
 In financial circles, where these reports originated, a tendency is shown to support Portuguese stocks, which have been very hrm, and South African shares have also improved on the prospect of the settlement of the long yexed Delagoa Bay difficulty
 Baifour Keeps Quiet
 MT Balfour, when questioned on the sub  Ject this afternoon, absolutely declined to discuss the reports in circulation regarding an Anglo-German alliance. Count Von dafzfeldt, who is believed to have left Lon oon, was again at the foreign office here last afternoon It is reported on the stock exchange that the Anglo-German alliance, or understanding, relates to the British pur- chase of Delagoa Bay, with Germany as- sentfng. AS a result Kafir and Portuguese securities are booming.
 Takes Different View
 The Pail Mall Gazette this afternoon says II IS satisfied that general Anglo-German agreement has Seen reached to act together in various quarters of the world The paper adds that it has verified yesterdays in- formation, and as an instance of when Germany's support will prove very useful, 1t points out that the fall of Obdurnam Egypt, and that in the face of the inevita- ble French and Russian resentment, Ger many will be useful >ss active guaran- teer of our permanent occupation

The Boston Bank Trust,

Boston, Oct. 3.-The reduction in Bos-
ton bank capital and the liquidation Of
nine Boston banks is probably the lar
gest piece of financiering ever UNDER
taken by local capital. It involves the
transfer Of $25, zoo, 900 Of deposits and the
shifting Of above $25, O0O, 900 in loans. 1t
Is very difficult to represent accurately
the state Of feeling concerning the con-
solidation. 1t. Is declared that no $685.
900, 900 bank such as Is proposed to form
out OF those which liquidate can be run
in the interest of the merchants. 1t
must be run as a collateral bank, which
is in favor of the bankers and brokers
rather than the mercantile community.
Bank men generally are also opposed to
the plan. Hon. Alanson w. Leard, ex-
state treasurer and ex-collector Of the
port Of Boston, in an interview on the
proposed consolidation of banks said:
1.-THE savings banks in Massachusetts
were established and incorporated pro-
fessedly for benevolent purposes-to
save and to utilize the savings of the
working class. 1t seems to me that the
savings banks interested in the present
movement with the banking firm which
acts as their agent practically become
wreckers of national banks. 1t seems
to me that the savings bank trust thus
inaugurated is in principal far more
dangerous to the business community
than any other trust which has been
before the public"

which came by express, as a present
from James Milford of Deer Ledge,

the wood are pen and ink portraits of
Dewey, Sampson, Schley, Evans, Clark,
Hobson an,l all the other naval heroes
Of the recent war, besides pictures Of
the Maine and appropriate inscriptions.
The portraits are really works Of art,
standing out on the wood in almost life
like way. Accompanying the cane was
! silk cover made in crazy quilt fashion.
The governor dropped all business as
soon as he saw the present and refused
to resume work until he had admired
it over and over again. Milford, the

Victims Of Mine Fire,

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. "a portion Of
the Midvale mine of the Lehgh V Hey
Coal company caught fire on Sat. 'ay
morning, and four of the men in in >
workings were subjected. The fire o, g-
mated in the second lift in what is
known as the Buckley or Kinney VEIN.
1t is supposed that the timbers caught
fire from a miners lamp, but the cause
of the fire is not positively known. In
the section of the mine where the fire
broke out there are about 100 men EN-
ployed. All the men had gone in to
their work, and as soon as the alarm
of fire was given they made a rush to
escape All but four men succeeded in
getting safely out The victims are
Peter Craig, a miner; Joseph Brady, a
miner, and Michael Toniso and John
Dorak, laborers.

GERMANY HOLDS BACK.

All the Other Powers Agree to Take
Part In Disarmament Conference.
Washington, Oct. 3.-With the excep-
tion of Germany, all of the great poV-
ers of the world have agreed to par
ticipate in the international disarma-
ment conference suggested by the car
Of Russia.
Considerable interest exists in diplo-
matte circles as to the answer the Ger
man emperor will make to the czar's
proposition. A diplomat in a position to
know says that the German govern
ment before engaging to take part in
such conference intends is sound the
nations with which she Is on the most
friendly terms for the purpose of ascer-
tanning their views as to the position
each would occupy toward the other in
case of disarmament. Emperor VIII lam
Is also DESTROYS Of carefully studying
the effect of the adoption of the propo-
sition. Should he finally determine that
the interests of Germany, were against
entering into such a conference the
whole plan would undoubtedly fall
through.
The state department Is taking a deep
interest in the proposed conference, and
while the officials believe the plan is
chimerical, still, as ambassador Hitch
cock was instructed to do, the Russian
government has been advised that the
United States will send representative
to take part.
The president has not determined who
shall be the representative, for the raa-
son that it is not definitely decided
when and where the conference shall
take place. But ambassador Hitch
cock has been advising the department
of the progress made in the matter.

Fearful Tale From Colorado.

Denver. Oct 3-FOrest fires, which
are devastating the western portion Of
the state, are burning with undated fu-
nv. only subsding where fuel Is ex-
hausted. A special to The Rocky Noun
tain News from Red Cliff says: Nothing
ia heard in Eagle county but talk of fire
from, all sections. From reports of new
territory in the grasp of the demon
when a providential storm comes and
the summing up Is made there will be
little timber left to tell the tale. A new
country now sending volumes of fire
and smoke heavenward Is Bear Willow
and Lake Creek, a magnificent stretch
Of forest.
Ranchmen OH Gore creek are having
a desperate time saving their homes.
Along the side hills near Minturn even
the ground is burning. Cattlemen are
getting their cattle into unburned dis
tricts as rapidly as possible, and even
then are compelled to keep close
watch on them and keep them moving.
A regular gale is blowing throughout
t,e county, which means the fast trav-
cling fire will be driven forward in
hurricane of flames. The deserted VIII
I,pe of Gold Park was reduced to ash g.
tho stamp mill of the Gid Park M. and

pany suffered greatly. The mines nave
closed down. and the miners are utterly
exhousted from their night and day

life has occurred, but many head Of
cattle and horses have been burned up.
Notch mountain, opposite Gilman, is
a blackeneu ruin on the Holy Cross

DESTROYED. In several places there Is
M doubt that the fires are Of incen-
diary origin. Especially is this so in
