WAR CORRESPONDENTS
HAVE NO SHOWING.
Complaint of Their Treatment
by Otis Sent to London.

London, July 25.-A private
letter received here today from a
war correspondent at Manila and
dated June 18th, says: "There
seems to be no end of the war in
sight. The censorship is constant
ly becoming more troublesome.
Gen. Otis recently established a
rule that any matter relating to
the navy must be taken to the
commander of the fleet for his
approval and afterward submitted
to the military censor, thus ad-
ding to our difficulties. For some
reason which the censor would
not explain, Gen. Otis refused to
allow us to send the death of the
Monadnock's captain (Nichols)
for two days after its occurrence.
The general also refused to allow
us to send news of the disappear
ance of Capt. Rockefeller (April
2S) on the ground that it would
worry his family, or the killing
of Capt. Tilley, of the signal
corps, until the next day. The
correspondents are all very tired
of this arrangement, which simply
means that they must go out and
run large chances of getting shot
several times a week with no
chance of making regulations,
because their stories must always
reflect Otis view.
"It is impossible to write the
truth about the situation. The
resources and fighting qualities
of the natives are quite misunder-
stood by the American papers
and we cannot write the facts
without being accused of treason;
nor can we tell Of the practically
unanimous opposition to and dis
like of the war among the Amer
lean troops. The volunteers, or
at least a portion of them, were
at one time on the verge of
mutiny, and unless Gen. Otis had
begun sending them homewards
there would have been sensation
al developments.

Strong Ticket Named, Nearly All

Beckham For Lieut..
Governor.

Louisville, KY, June 29.-At 10:45
o'clock Tuesday night the closest
and most exciting contest for a
gubernatorial nomination in Ken
lucky was ended in the victory of
the Goebel men. Up to the very
finish of the final ballot the result
was in apparent uncertainty and
the friends of Hardin were waging
a vigorous contest. Not until the
10 votes of Union county were cast
for Goebel did the Hardin men sur
render hope and come to the ,convic-
ton that Goebel had out-managed
them.
1t was tremendous victory for
the brilliant young Kenton county
leader, and coming at the end of a
struggle wholly unprecedented, 1T
fairly set the friends of Goebel wild
with delight.

A Great Ovation.

with delight.
A Great Ovation.
Such an ovation as he received
after the final vote has not often
been seen in any convention, and a
feature of it, which was especially
gratifying to his friends, was that
the managers of the opposing can
didates, who, for seven days, had
fought to gain some advantage
against his quiet w.t.. wonderful
powers of organization and master
ly generalshIp, were among the
first to grasp his hand and promise
him fealty. And when Joe Black
burn led him to the front of the
stage, the Dean Of the Kentucky
Democracy standing side by side
with the brawniest of its young
leaders, there was wild storm of
cheering, which lasted until lung
power was exhausted. The day in
the convention was full of excite
ment and apparent uncertainty,
but never once was Goebel himself
as to the result.
Knew His Power.
He held the key to the situation
and knew it. The Stone and Har-
din men knew it as we'll, and they
made the effort to save their men
by unique plan. Both candi-
dates were brought upon the stage
to speak in support of resolution
adjourning the convention and de-
claring for the election of a new set
of delegates. That was the serious
and perhaps fatal mistake.
The movement to adjourn the
convention furnished exactly the
opening Goebel needed. 1t went
against the humor of the delegates
who for FIVE days, with Sunday
intervening, had fought and paid
board bills for their favorites.
First Aggressive rIove.
Then came the first aggressive
step of Goebel. His people offered
a resolution to drop the lowest man.
1t was carried by the same senti-
ment that condemned the movement |
to adjourn and it gave strength to
the man who was fighting to face
the issue. Then came the enforced |
retirement of Stone, the gallant old |
soldier from Lyon county, and a
contest between
Goebel and Hardin. Through all |
the exciting moments of 1.-THE final
vote Goebel was still confident, with
the consummate skill and fearless ag-
gressiveness'which made him a ma
tional leader of the party in Frank
Tort; he had laid his plans, and
knew that they could not fail. The
eight he made challenged the adj
niration of his bitterest opponents,
and his hard-won victory made
ioubly sincere the congratulations
If his friends.

FIRST RED BANANAS IN YEARS.
Eagerly Bid In BY Dealers at About
10 Cents Apiece.
New York TRIBUNE


Importers Of foreign fruit and fruit
dealers were interested yesterday in the
arrival of a small consignment of red
bananas. The consignment was linn
tied to a few punches, but it has been
such a long time since local fruit deal
erS have seen any of this fruit that
many OF them went down to the
steamer and We'd with one another to
get a bunch or two. 1t was first re-
ported that the red bananas came from
Cuba, as it was supposed that they
could only be grown there, but it was
afterward learned that they were a
part of the first cargo of fruit shiDDed
from the new plantations in San Do
mingo. This fact was of additional in
terest, because it was said to be proof
that a new and productive fruit district
had been opened, and that its influence
on the banana market would be mark
ed in the near future. Much had been
said about this new banana country,
but comparatively little was known of
its resources.
1t was not until General Wegler is
sued his edict against the shipment of
bananas from Cuba that the planters
of that island began to look about them
for a new place in which to cultivate
fruit. One of the planters who suf-
fered loss by the revolution and the
war in Cuba was H. numois of Al South
street, this city. About two years ago
Mr.. Dumois decided that San Domingo
would be a good place for him, so he

lines may help to solve many social
problems. For one thing. it is evident
that they put flying machines out of

have pilfered less than eight hours be-
fore. The coast line is something like
1900 miles-hence it appears that the

for a Sundays outing, leaving Satur-
day night and coming back on Monday
morning, and, according to MIR. Behr,
this could be accomplished with even
greater safety than that attained in
the swift-running double-track trains
of today.
COST OF SINGLE-RAIL LINES.
The question of cost, of outlay and
possible returns, is, of course, crucial.
Mr.. Behr is franllness itself there. He
sets down, categorically, estimates of
fit cost at from $4,000 to 100000 the
mile, but asserts that the operating eX-
penses are so moderate that the single
rail lines can carry passengers at a less
rate than is now charged upon fast
trains, and still pay dividends upon
their capital. He says, too, that he sees
no likelihood of interfering with freight
traffic, nor even of monopolizing the
passenger business. What he advises
is the construction of single-rail sys-
TENS along some of the great trunk
lines, possibly in connection with them,
so that impatient travellers, or timid
ones, or those under stress of business,
may be whisked away as If by magic,
leaving the Pullmans and vestibule
trains to those who have luck and leiS-
ure-
SINGLE-RAIL EVOLUTION IDEA.
The genesis of this Ternisee line is
most interesting. 1t is as much an evo-
luton as it may work a revolution.
Various and Sundry other Single-rail
lines have existed in various and sun
dry parts Of the world. Some ran by
mule power. some by steam power. The
TerVueren line is, however, the first to
run by haTnessed lightning. Its imme-
diate prototype is the single-rail trestle
no I tiGtnNNen tn
brennan, in Ireland, which is in itself
somewhat notable. It's length is nine
miles and a half, il has run for eleven
years-odd, without having q car wheel
once leave the track or q passenger or
employee make Il claim against it for
damages. This, though it is operated
by steam and runs twenty miles an
hour-not an astounding rate Of speed,
but a very efficient one, unde, the cir
cumstances.
Mr.. Behr built it, as later he built the
Belgian experimental line The Listo-
wei model was a line put up by
French engineer out in Algeria. At
first he built a double-track line out on
the ground, but the sandstorms cover
ed up his tracks faster than he could
uncover them. so he had recourse to
trestle construction, along which cars
We're drawn by mules after the manner
of boats on a canal. Happening to see
it, Mr.. Behr decided that it was a good
scheme, and proceeded to initiate it up
on the Irish coast. From steam and
twenty miles an hour, the transition
has been more natural than rapid. He
has gone slowly and surely to the end
that later he might be as sure OF help
ing the world TO so very fast
POSSIBILITIES OF INVENTION.
Speculation is idle, but prospects,

country roadways, of which there are
several through the park at Tervueren.
Ia order TO maintain such a speed, 1t
would be fatal to have to Slow down
for q crossing. Accordingly, Mr.. Behr
has rugged up a marvellous drawbridge
for roads. This drawbridge is worked
automatically, SO that when the train
approaches the two sections of the
bridge, parting in the middle, fly up,
allowing the train to pass at full speed.
Mr.. Behr expects in the future to use
his new invention not only for short
distances between densely populated
cities, but for long distances through
the country where the passenger traf-
fic is large. If his line now projected
from Liverpool to Manchester is en-
tirely satisfactory, think of the posi-
bilities for still longer ones! For in
stance, Il travelling man might go to
bed in the evening in a train in New
York and wake up fresh for business
in Chicago the next morning. 1t would
