Gunboat Nashville Causes a sensa-
ton at Memphis.


MEMPHIS, Tenn. May 1.-The United
States gunboat Nashville entered Mem
phis harbor at s O'Clock this afternoon,
amid the deafening shouts of more than
10000 people, and dropped anchor near the
Arkansas shore. The coming Of Uncle
Sans warship had been widely heralded
and the city is thronged with visitors.
The principal business houses and resi-
dences are profusely decorated in honor
OF the event. ta5
At o'clock this afternoon the steamer
James Lee. with the mayor, members
of the city council and. the reception COM
mittee on board, weighed anchor and
followed by innumerable smaller craft
slowly descended the river to meet the
visiting gunboat. Promptly on schedule
time the fotilla made It's appearance,
and amid the booming of cannon and
shrill blasts of hundreds OF steam whis-
ties, the Nashville dropped anchor I'm
mediately afterwards the national salute
of twenty-one guns was fred from the
Chickasaw bluffs, and the Nashville thun-
dered a similar salute In response.
Tonight Capt. Maynard and the officers
Of the gunboat were entertained by the
reception committee at the Gayoso no.
tel. Tomorrow will be gala day. A
parade of all the civic societies will be
had in the afternoon, and at night ban

be laid for several hundred guests. On
Wednesday the officers will be entertain

nights rest the visitors will proceed

especially of st. Paul, is entering upon
an era of prosperity. The jobbing trade
has had to fight its way against great
obstacles. During the period, say from
1880 to 1884, our state and the entire
Northwest, In fact was soliciting the in
terest of the entire world Well organic
ed immigration bureaus were at work,
and no means was left unused that prom
ised to add to the population of the
country. These agencies were subse-
quently abandoned, but the enroachments
recently made on both the jobbing and
the retail trade by Capitalization of the
distributing agencies have thrown out of
lucrative positions or occupations many
men of intelligence and ability, who were
unable to compete with the trusts and
the department stores and other central
lzing agencies. These men, or many of
them, are turning to the land. They may
not go to the farms for a mere livelihood
but as business enterprise, but in either
event. they are adding to the productiv-
ity Of the state, and the result must be a
healthy condition Of business as the re-
sources of the state are more and more
availed Of by energetic and studious
men.
''The jobbing trade, as remarked, has
had to compete with great odds. The
trusts have sold direct to the retailer,
and the jobbing trade has thus lost its
smart VI lildl BUSINESS. 1nSn, TOO, there
have grown up immense mail order sup
ply houses, such for example as Mont
gomery Ward & Co., OF Chicago, which
have their catalogues in every farmhouse
In the sections which they respectively
cater to. The farmer, with ready money
can get anything he wants from these
firms laid down at his door as cheaply
as the local merchant can get it, or prac-
tcally so. This thus decreases the trade
of the local retailer who would other
wise handle the business, and accordingly
the jobber Of whom he would buy also
finds his profits curtailed While the
boom was on and there was plenty OF
business for all to take care of, no one
was noticing these leakages, so to speak,
but during the last few years the jobbers
have had their attention drawn to these
factors in the existing trade conditions.
1 believe, however, that with the excep-
ton of commodities which are in the con-
troll of the trusts that the jobbing trade
has adjusted itself to the conditions, and
that with good crops and natural trade
conditions, the jobbing trade will enjoy
new prosperity from this on

BERLIN, May 1.-The newspapers Of
Germany, commenting upon the latest
news from the Philippine islands, express
the hope that the United States will now
end the hostilities in the Far East. The
Frankfurter Zeitung says:
I'VE trust that President Mckinley and
his advisers will not be misled by lingo
shoutings, but that they will listen to
the voice of the Filipinos, as expressed
through ther leaders, and to the voice
of the American nation, as expressed by
the serious press and the declarations of
sober minded politicians. We have never
doubted the ability of the Americans to
enforce their will in the Philippines; but
now 1t seems that the moment has come
to make good the wrong done, and bring
their material interests In accord with
the dictates Of Justice"
The Vossische Zeitung, basing its COM
ment upon private advices from the Phil
ippine Islands, says that the continuance
of the war is inf1icting grave injury upon
German commercial interests and details
number of cases in support Of this
statement The journal last quoted says
the German consul at uoilo made list
of everything belonging to German citi-
zens there that was destroyed or injured
In the bombardment and submitted it to
Maj. Gen. Otis. In reply the consul has
received from Gen. Otis the statement
that the United States will not pay the
damages claimed, as Iloilo at the time of
the bombardment was still IN possession
of the Spaniards Other German mer-
chants of Iloilo made representations of
q like character to Gen. Otis, and re-
ceived similar replies. The Vossiche Eel
tung adds that these and many more
claims will probably lead to protracted
diplomatic negotiations at Washington

There came to the war department today
a message from Commissioner Schur-
mann, now in the Philippines, which was
not made public. 1t is said that the COM

Of peace negotiations, and 1t is believed
that the cablegram conveyed important
news that the government cannot permit
to be published until 1t has been consid-
cred at the cabinet meeting which will
be held today.
There is growing belief here that all
that has been cabled Washington with
reference to the visit of the Filipino en-
issaries to Gen. Otis has not been given
out, and that there is likelihood of an
early cessation of hostilities.
The war department received no direct
advices from Gen. Otis during the day
that threw new light upon conditions in
the Philippines-at least that were made
public.
