THE NEVIS FROM HAV4N1.
Comment of the Press Upon President
 McKinleY,s Message.

Havana, Dec. 1.-The local press shows a sharp division in the com ments upon President McKinley's mes sage to congress. Fl Pals and IaLucha find an analagy between the message and the joint resolution of April last constituting, in their opinion, proof that the United States government is determined to carry out the promises solemnly contracted before the world.
 Fl bio De La Marina, La Union Avis dor, Fl Comercio La Union Yberia and Fl Leon Espanal see in the message yelled desire that the presidents policy is to occupy the island for an indefinite period with view of ultimately an- nexing it. These papers loudly de nounce the passage in the message which urges cooperation and assist ance in every possible form for the social and moral reform of the island. The idea of qualifying the Cubans to administer their own affairs is repre- sented by this section of the press as .an insult and an ominous warning"
 MT. Gould, who has been distributing lHe BratIon Teilei SupPlieo, lStuiheu last night from his trip to Matanzas, Cardenas, Sagua, Caibarien Santa Clara and Santo Domingo. He reports great suffering and want all over the island. While distribution of the pres ent supplies will relieve distress in cer- tain quarters for time, he deems it imperative that further shipments should be made at once. In every case MT. Gould has solicited the cooperation of the local authorities in the local towns and villages and he has derived great assistance from them. The Fulda left this morning for Cadiz with 1,177 Spanish troops. All statues of Spanish royal personages now in the public parks will soon be taken down for ship ment 70 Spain.

.lMERrCAN TRADE IN CHINA.
Phenomenal Strides Made i'm FoOchow-
 May Lead Other Countries,

Washington Dec. 7.-Consul General Fowler at Foochow has called the at tention of the state department to the phenomenal strides made by American that when the books of 1898 are closed the value of American merchandise im- ported there will equal if not exceed the values for all countries. American gin- seng also made it's first appearance as an article of import. The imports of drills for the first six months of this year ex- ceeded those of the entire year of 1893 and 1894, and the exports of all our goods in 1897 were four times as large as they were in 1S93 The value of inn ports into Cheefoo was almost ten times greater than those specified as from Great Britain. The consul states that the value of American imports into the single Chinese city of Cheefoo exceeds the entire value of our exports to any one of forty-one separate countries which he names, including such coun- tries as Guatamala, Peru, Dutch Hast Indies, Portugal and Switzerland and that not more than twenty of the 26 political divisions of the worlds com merce would show a greater value of our exports than does Cheefoo. He says that the value of American exports to three North China ports Tien Tsin, Niuchwang and Cheefoo last year ex- ceeded our combined sales to all the central American states.

AMERICA THEIR ZION,
Resolution of the Union of American
 Hebrew Congregations.


 Richmond, Va, Dec. With to-day's session of the Union of American He brew congregations in convention here the following report on the economist movement was adopted: "The Union of American Hebrew congrega tions in convention assembled, in view of the active propaganda being made at pres- ent for the so-called economist move- ment, deefs it proper and necessary to put itself on record as follows: While we are aware and deplore the abject condition to which many of our breth- ren are subjected in foreign lands and that have naturally, but unfortunately aroused in some of them a yearning for a re-establishment of Zion, yet we delegates are opposed to political econ- omism. The Jews are not nation, but religious community. Zion was a precious possession of the past, the early home of our faith, where our prophets uttered their orld-subduing thoughts and our psalmists sang their world enchanting hymns. As such it is a holy memory. America is our Zion. Here in the home of free religious in- stitutions we have aided in founding this Zion"

ANT1-TICKET SCALPING BILL
Passes House by Vote of 119 to 1O1--
 Senate,s Doings.

Washington, Dec 1.-The house to- day passed the anti-ticket scalping bill by 2 vote of 119 to 10f. This action is the continuation of a ten years struggle on the part of the railroads to put an end to the business of ticket scalping. The interstate commerce commission first called attention to the subject in it's report of 1888 and it has been before congress ever since in one form or ar-i other. lest season exte lsi U hcar.nss s were given both to the representatives of the railroads and the scalpers and Mir Sherman of New York secured 174 pledges for the measure. It was, howev- CT, deemed inadvisable to-day to bring the measure forward until the present session. The debate to-day lasted four hours and was spirited upon both sides. None of the amendments offered were adopted.
 No business was transacted by the senate to-day in open session. A few minutes after the senate convened 1t went into executive session. At 2:15 Business in open session was resumed, the death of Representative Northway and Love of Mississippi, was announce ed and the senate adjourned as mark of respect to their memories

CTS and that the mandarin responsible for the outrage be degraded. The mem- bers of the Tsung-Li- Yamen are great ly perturbed at the French ultinatum regarding the missionary held prison CT by the Szechuan rebels.

HENRY B. HYDE. Business Career of the Insurance Presi- dent Probably Closed.

New York, Dec. Tt is thought that the business career of Henry B. Hyde, president of the Equitable Life insur- ance society is closed. Neither his phy- sician nor his friends have any hope
 that he will ever again be able to en- ploy his financial genius in the direction of the great corporation which he ere ated. He is but GA years of age but a life that has been absolutely devoted to business has shattered his nervous sys- tenn and brought about a chronic dis ease of the heart. He has chosen as his successor James w. Alexander, the first vice president of the Equitable com- pany. He is named as the next presi- dent in MT. Hyde's place, for MT. Hyde has the right to so name his successor. But MT. Hyde will remain president of the society until he dies even though MT. Alexander be the president in fact.
