Dry Goods.

NEW YORK, Sept. S.-Trading has improved
slightly in dry goods centers to-day owing to the
return of cool weather and the buyers in the city
somewhat freer in their operations. Mail
orders also show fair returns from day to day.
There is no improvement in the demand for
wooden and worsted goods, either mems wear
fabrics or dress goods. Staple cottons have been
the subject Of some specific attention in various
lines on the part of buyers during the current
week Print cloths have shown little actual
movement, with extras quoted at Lice and odd
goods about the same basis.

FLEEING SPANlARDS.
Entire Spanish Colony at Tampa
VIII Depart for Havana.

Entire Spanish Colony at Tampa
VIII Depart for Havana. 5
Washington, April 19.-The Spanish
minister, Senior Polo, has closed q
charter for an American steamer OF
the Plant line which will carry prac-
tically the entire Spanish colony OF
Tampa, Fla, to Havana. In making
the charter the minister gave assur-
ances that in case of hostilities the
steamer would be cleared from Ha-
vana, given ample protection and al
lowed to return to an American port.
The Spanish party will number 4OS,
most Of them being young men who
have offered their services to the
Spanish army in case Of war. Some
women and children r included, as
they are a part of the colony making
the move, and it is said also that the
hostility to the Spanish residents in
that locality has become marked of
late. The consul and vice consul, with
two assistants, will remain at Tampa.
Senior Polo received a number of dis
patches from Madrid, but they devel-
oped no new phases Of the question,
and did not bear out the reports that
Spain would seek the good offices OF
the United States in case the house
resolutions become q law. No official
information has been received here as
to the reported negotiations with Gen.
Gomez toward his surrender, although
there is no disposition to discredit the
report.

Four healthy cocker spaniels, which
we're born in 1895-the males being
brothers and the females sisters-have
been for three years the subject Of an
interesting experiment by a professor
in Clark University. Alcohol, not
enough to produce intoxication,- has
been mixed daily with the food Of two
Of these dogs. The others have had
none. One result is that, as compared
with sober dogs,the alcoholics. Bum. and
Tipsy, have become timid. slovenly.
lazy and weak. Yet the worst effects
Of the whisky diet appear in the of
spring. Bum and Tipsy have been the
parents Of twenty pups. six of which
were born dead, and eight malformed.
six only being healthy. On the other
hand, the normal pair have had six
teen pups, Of which fifteen are living
and healthy. Remembering that the
alcoholics have never been drunk,
such. an experiment helps one to UNDER
stand the downfall Of many . family
whose head has. prided himself on be-
ang moderate" drinker.

ROOSEVELT MAY RESIGN.

Assistant Secretary of the Navy
Wants to Serve in the Army.
Washington, April 10. - Hon. Theo-
dore Roosevelt probably will resign
his office as assistant secretary of the
navy in case of hostilities with Spain
to accept a commission for active ser
vice in the army. Nothing definite has
yet been decided upon as to what as
Segment he will accept, but it is be-
lieved that he would prefer to serve
with the New York State troops.
From the beginning Of the present
difficulties with Spain Mr.. Roosevelt
has been prominent among those who
believe that war is the only solution
Of the problem, and since the disaster
to the Maine his advice to the presi-
dent and the members of the cabinet
has uniformly been for immediate ac-
ton against the Spaniards with the
full power Of the army and navy. He
has never doubted that the Spaniards
were responsible for the wreck of the
Maine, and believes that the act fully
~iusti1es an immediate declaration of

Our Right to Intervene In Cubs Con-
ceded by Sir Charles Dixie.
London, April 2O.-Sir Charles Dixie,
member Of parliament, is quoted in an
interview on the Spanish-American
crisis as expressing the opinion that
the two opposing fleets are about even

decisive action will be fought at sea.
IT." said he, "the Americans win, cne
war will be v If Spain wins, 1t
will be the beginning of a long strug-
gle which must end in the crushing de-
feat of SPAIN" Continuing, Sir
Charles ridiculed the idea of the
Spaniards Smelling cities, pointing out
that it would be no advantage to
Spain for her to do so. Sir Charles
then expressed the opinion that both
sides should be allowed access to
British c6aling stations, allowing
t%wenty-four hours to elapse between
the departure of the nations ships and
the arrival of their enemy to coal. He
also said that he anticipated Sconsid-
cradle trouble from the chaotic state
of international law. announced that
his sympathies were with the United
States, and explained that the United
States was quite right in interfering
in Cuba. adding, although l pity tne

The Washburn leader. [volume] (Washburn, McLean County, N.D.) 1890-1986, 1898-04-30

A prominent publisher died recently
who was also a large manufacturer Of
paper, the manager of a city bank and
of two stock farms, and who had been
a. candidate for governor of Pennsyl-
vania, with the attendant expenditure
Of time and money. So great were the
mans abilities, and SO admirable were
many of his qualities, that had he de-
voted himself exclusively to any one OF
his many pursuits he would undoubt-
eddy have achieved a great success. As
it was, he failed of election to the de-
sired Office, the paper-mill collapsed,
the bank was closed, the stock farms
proved a loss, and the newspaper was
hurt. Harassed' by too many cares, the
man grew nervous and i'll, fell a VIC
tim to narcotics and died suddenly.
The goal is sooner reached by nj road
than by a dozen.
