NEW YORK. Oct, A special TO the

him before the war investigating COM

MONTEREY TOGO
TO DELAG0A BAY
TO PROTECT OUR INTERESTS
Should War Occur Admiral Sehley
With His Flagship viii
Be Present.

NEW YORK. Oct. "A special to the
Herald from Washington says;
Immediately upon the outbreak Of
hostilities between the Transvaal and
Great Britain instructions will be sent
TO Commander John p Morrell. COM
manding the cruiser Monterey. direct
ing him to proceed with his vessel to
Delagoa bay and provide such protsc-
ton for American citizens and their
interests as possible.
1t is appreciated by the authorities
that it win not be possible for the
Montgomery TO land force to pro-
teCt American interests and that she will
be so far away from the Transvaal that
the moral effect OF her presence on the
people will be very slight.
1t is expected. however. that the
Transvaal government will appreciate
the reason Of her presence and will
be doubtless willing to more promptly
comply with any representations that
the American consul at Pretoria may
deem It advisable to make. Up to this
time the United States has received no
complaints.
According to a report received at the
state department from the consul at
! Pretoria, General Joubert has issued a
proclamation prohibiting the command
ering OF aliens. The instructions sent
to the consul by Secretary Hay several
weeks ago require him to protest to the
Boer government in regard to the i'm
press OF any neutral Americans. and It
is possible that some diplomatic com
pllcations in this connection may fol-
low.
Should war occur. not only will the
/ Montgomery be stationed in South Az
rican waters, but Rear Admiral schley
with his flagship will be present to aid
the consul in every possible way In
protecting Americans and their inter-
ests.

CHINESE IN THE PHILIPPINES
The Manila American Discusses Their
Condition and Legal Status.

Concerning the order Of General Otis
10 enforce the Chinese immigration laws
and Chinese exclusion act against the
Chinese in the Philippines, the Manila
American says:
In. the native inhabitants Of these
islands the Chlnos long ago discovered
a kindred race, the climate suited him
and he found the country naturally
richer and less crowded than China.
Since then he has been here, and as
the country cannot very well do with
ont him, it is safe to say he Is here to
stay His sojourn in the land and his
association with the natives modified
his ideas a little.
Most Of the Chinos born in the
islands have forsworn their allegiance
TO the emperor Of China. They wear
no queue, and after living their life
here they have no desire that after
death their bodies should rest in the soil
OF the Flowery Kingdom.
Chinos have intermarried largely with
the Tagalos and Mestizos, and as a
class the Chinese Mestizos have seem

NEW YORK. Oct. "A special to the
Herald from Washington says:
President Mckinley has determined
to urge again upon congress the au-
thorization Of a trans-f4cine cable
and win be able to announce that a
naval survey shows that the route se-
leeted is practicable, Surveys are being
made BY the collier Nero under the
command of Lieutenant commader
Hodges
Because Of the complete soundlngs
taken in former years between San
Francisco and Hawaii there Is no ne
eessity for further work there and
Lieutenant Commander Hodges has
confined himself to the waters west
Of Hawaii.
Reports received by Rear-Admlra r.
B. Bradford. chief Of the bureau OF
equipment. show that the Nero ilrst
proceeded directly to the Midway ISL
ands. sounding on the way and then
zig-Eagged across the line to determine
tire best points to locate the proposed
cable. From Midway islands the Nero
went t. Guam and later went TO Yoko-
hama. where she is now preparing for
the return voyage She will zig-zag
across the imaginary line drawn dur
ing the voyage from Guam to Yokoha-
ma. make further soundings from
Guam to the Midway islands and again
to Honolulu.
No adverse reports have been re-
eeived concerning the route from
Guam to Manila, and from Guam TO
Yokohama and the authorities are con-
fident that no obstacles exist that can
prevent the laying OF a cable from
san Francisco to Manila, touching
everywhere on American soil.
The idea OF running a branch line
from Guam to Yokohama arises from
the wish OF the administration to make
the cable commercial success. al
though 1t Is desired primarily for gov
ernment use. The president appreciates
that congress may decide It impolite
to have the cable constructed and
maintained at the expense OF the Uni-
ted States. and should a private COM
pany be allowed to take up the en-
terprise the Yokohama line would be
an important consideration.
Tue work Of laying cable among the
Philippine islands has been delayed by
the mishap to the cable ship Hooker.
The vessel viii be temporarily repaired
at Cavite and then sent to HonskOng
where she win rapidly be put in COM
mission, as the military authorities
desire the prompt establishment Of the

THE ICE MACHINES PART.
At Last There Ha. Been = New r...
ture Introduced Into Uncle
Toms Cabin,

There is new wrinkle in "tUncle Toms
Cabin" theatrical companies. One of them,
which is ransacking the state of New Jer-
sey for audiences, has hit upon the device of
buying q refrigerating machine and using
real blocks of ice in the scene in which Eliza,
pursued by a pack of barking mongrels,
crosses the river carrying in her arms q
stuffed doll.
The icemaking machine has proved an
enormous success. At the Ridgewood opera
house, where the ice machine played few
evenings ago, frantic crowd fought its way
through the doors. At the first perform.
ances the ice machine was kept in the back.
ground. Several cakes were manufactured
green baize river. They were carefully sand
ed on the surface, SO that when Eliza made
her grand dash for liberty she would not
turn undignifed somersaults. The ice ma.
chine, however, had been SO largely adver.
tised that yokels wanted to see it. They
sat in their places after the curtain de.
scended upon the solemn death Of Little
Eva and howled for the ice machine to come
out and show itself. The stage manager
and couple of deck hands had to carry it
down to the footlights. Then they turned
the handle and, amid uproarous applause,
the machine produced a cake of real ice
Since then part has been written in the
play for the ice machine. When the river
are discovered experimenting with the

having any immediate use for it turn it into
the river, and it sits upon the river surface

sprinkles sand over the ice in full view Of

sLovENLY TYpEwR1r1NG.
A Transvaal Operator Who Sacrifice.
Neatness and Proper style
for Speed.

The people who are expert operators
on the typewriting machines usually
do their work SO rapidly that they write
in full the words which the writer by
the old pen and ink method expresses
by signs and authorizations, but it seems
that even the machines must now resort
to authorizations in order to turn out
the work as rapidly as it is required.
A letter received recently from the
Transvaal shows that even in that far
away country the typewriter works I'M
der high pressure. The sheet is thickly
sprinkled with diagonal dashes and dis
connected letters, which at the first
glance give it the appearance of having
served the opesator as practice sheet.
But closer inspection shows that the
dashes and letters are labor saving alb
breviations.
Thus: q man W went to house
found locked"
Zone o leading citizens appeared +.

etc.
The people who write letters in this
way may save little time, but the let

will probably make the method unpop-

81 am very grateful to you for your

taken in me, and truly believe your
medicines and advice are worth more
to a woman than all the doctors in the
world. For years I had female troubles
and did nothing for them. OF course
I became no better and finally broke
down entirely. My troubles began
with inflammation and hemorrhages
from the kidneys, then Inflammation,
congestion and falling of the womb
and Inflammation of ovaries.

day for some time; then after nearly
two months the doctor gave me permits

but in less than q week was COM
PEELED to give up and go to bed. On
breaking down the second time, I de-
cided to let doctors and their medicine
alone and try your remedies. Before
the first bottle was gone I felt the eff
fects of it. Three bottles of Lydia E.

package of her Sanative Wash did me
more good than all the doctors treat
