: KANSAS CITY, Aug. "A special to
The Star from Sedalia, Mo-, says the
Bank of Commerce of this city was the
victim of sneak thief at the noon
hour Monday and it is almost certain
rich haul was made, although Presi-
dent John j. Yeater and Cashier Adam
little refused to divulge the amount of
loss. While either Mr.. Yeater or Mr..
little was at the cashiers window, the
thief made his way through side
door into the directors room in the
rear of the bank proper, and then
stepped inside of the railing from
where he took only couple of steps
into the banks vault, where he helped
himself.
1t was two or three hours before the
theft was discovered. At the sugges.
ton of a detective Chief of Police
Prentice arrested John Names, an ad-
yertising solicitor of Terre Haute, Ind,
who had been in the bank about the
noon hour Monday soliciting an adver-
tisement for railway publication.
Names bears good credentials. He is,
however, being held pending an in
yestlgatlon.
The job was undoubtedly the work
of an expert, and the bank officials de-
clare that whoever got the had

attention of the cashier, while the.other

McNicoll OF the Canadian Pacific rail

fore the interstate commerce commits
sion in regard TO the rate war between
the Canadian Pacific railway and the
American lines Mr. McNicoll, in his
closing remarks, told of his efforts to re"

sisted that the American lines had re-

said that the Canadian Pacific must

he said, had told them that there would
be legislation against the Canadian
Pacific, and that congress would have
legislated last session if the subject
had not been overshadowed by the Gu
ban crisis. Mr.. McNicoll said he did
not take much notice of these remarks,

WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, Aug. 4.-The
largest whaleback ever built, the
steamer Alexander McDougall," left
the slip at the Barge works and went
to the Missabe ore docks to load with
5000 tons of ore for her maiden trip
down the Great Lakes.
Captain McDougall, the inventor of
the whalehack, is of the opinion that
boats will soon be going direct from
Superior to Europe. He said:
"Next year the new Canadian canal
will be opened, and it will offer a
broader field for lake carriers. Boats
carrying 1900 to 1900 tons will be
able to go direct from Duluth to Mon.
treal and Quebec, and thence to Eng.
land and European ports. The new
canal will permit of the passage, of
boats 40 feet long and drawing IA
feet of water. Vessels of this type can
sail on the lakes during the season of
navigation, and can then go to the sea
and remain there in commission all
winter, when freight rates on the
ocean will demand it. Within the
next five years expect to see fleet of
at least 100 boats of this class trading
between Duluth and European ports.''

San FRANCISCO, Aug. "A special
to The Chronicle from Cavita, dated
July 80, says: There are nine little
Spanish gunboats scattered about this
and the Caroline group Of islands, and
when Manila has been stormed, Ad-
miral Dewey will turn his attention to
their capture or destruction. AS near
as can be ascertained, they are distrib.
uted as follows: In the Pasig river,
Manila, gunboats Cebu, Iamar or Sa.
mar and Bulusan. At Iloilo, gunboat
El Cano. At Zamboanga, gunboat
Pampanga. At Blaiabao, gunboat
Calamanes. At Ponape, Caroline
islands, gunboat Lobos.
, Of these vessels named Ell Cano IS
the largest and best. Admiral Dewey
planned TO send the Baltimore after
her some time ago, but decided in view
of the danger of a second fleet coming
from Spain that it would be well to
keep his defense intact.
1t is probable that two of the vessels
sunk by Dewey's feet may yet be
raised and rendered serviceable.

the homogeneous spectacle may yet be
presented of American and Spanish
troops there cooperating against a
common enemy. supported by the com.
