RUSSIA WANTS MONEY.
Attempts to Negotiate Big Loan
From German Financiers.

Berlin, Nov 12-The Associated
Press is informed on the highest au-
thority that DR. Won Miguel Prussian
minister of finance, had a long confer
ence today with Emperor William. 1t
appears that one of the subjects dis
cussed during the visit Of Emperor
Nicholas last week was the raising of
another Russian loan in Germany.
Russia having failed to effect one any
where else in Europe. This explains
why DIR. Won MIGUEL was present
Wednesday evening. along with Count
Won Buelow and Count Muravieff, the
German ard Prussian foreign minis
tiers, at the Interview between the czar
and the kaiser.
Emepor William. it is definitely as
serted, made no promise to the car in
the matter, leaving it understood that
whether the German government would
favor another Russian loan mere or not
depended largely upon DIR. Won MIGUEL

or'S request. In the meanwhile DR.. Won
MIGUEL consulted with the leading Ger
man financiers. nearly all of whom dis
couraged the proposal. as they have
been reliably informed that the Trans
Siberian railroad is likely to prove far
more expensive than is generally sur
missed. Moreover. a Russian finarcial
crash is expected soon.
Today DR.. Won MIGUEL reported to this
effect to the kaiser. and it may be con-
sidered certain that the proposed loan

DEWEY ACTS AS GODFATHER
SPONSOR FOR THE GRANDSON
OF AN OLD FRIEND.
The Admiral Becoming Extremely
Tired of the Enthusiasm of the
People of New York.

New York, Nov. 12.-Nothing more
interesting than acting as godfather
to the child of the daughter of an old
friend of his occurred in the life of Ad-
miral Dewey today.
Shortly after breakfast Admiral
Dewey was joined by his son George,
and the two left the Waldorf-Astoria
and took an elevated train for south
ferry. Few people recognized them as
they walked along and there was no
such demonstrations as occurred on
Friday and Saturday morning, which
caused the admiral to announce that
he would leave the city unless the en-
thusiasm was controlled
At South Ferry the admiral and his
son took a ferry boat for Tompkins-
shortly after noon. and went at once
to the residence of Frederick Hartman,
of ST. George Mrs. Hartman is a
daughter of an old friend of the adj
miral. and the baptism of her son,
Frederick. jr.. was made something of
social event. The admiral left for
New York shortly after o'clock.
On the way over there were about 200
people on the boat and when some one
passed around the word that Admiral
Dewey was aboard every one made
rush for his part of the boat. The adj
miral did not seem to like it, and some
one was thoughtful enough to suggest
that the admiral did not like too close
friendship and the crowd seemed to
take the cue. When the boat reached
her slip the people rushed off ahead of
the admiral and lined the passage way
on both sides as he and his son passed
between the two lines.
Mrs. Dewey and a friend in the af-
ternoon went for a drive in Central
park and along Riverside drive.

Baltimore, Md, Nov. 12.-Captain
Mccarthy of the British steamer
Trunkby, which arrived today from
Santa Cruz. Teneriffe, reports that a
few days before his arrival at Santa
Cruz the Brazilian bark Julianna
Schooner, from Rio Janeiro, for Genoa,
Italy, put in for provisions. The health
authorities asked the master why there
was but fifteen persons on board when
the articles named seventeen as leav-
ing Rio Janeiro. The captain said the
others had died from yellow fever.
When the vessel was released from
quarantine and provisioned, one of the
crew stated to one of the customs
the master of the ship. but the mate,
and that the mate had murdered the
captain and his wife on the voyage.
The authorities sent boats crews from
small Spanish man-of-war in the har-
Dor to bring the mate and crew ashore
The mate, who was a Swede, had SuS-
pected something, and he armed him
self with a revolver and defied the
whole of the five boats crews of Span
ish man-of-war's men to take him. The
sailors, under orders from their Off
GERS. fusiladed the man and the vessel
for five hours, during which time, it is
said. 500 shots were fired.
The mate was killed at last. having
been shot several times. During the
firing the crew jumped overheard and
We're rescued by the warship's boats.
In their excitement the Spaniards set
fire to the bark, but as soon as they
found the Swede dead they extinguish-
ed the fire.

Oporto, Portugal, and its name had
been painted out The murderer had
changed the name and claimed Brazil

IS DOWN TO A NOSE FINISH
RESULT OF KENTUCKY ELEC-
TON STILL IN DOUBT.
Both Sides Persist In Claiming
Victory and Contest Is Now
Assured.

Louisville. Ky, Nov. 12.-The second
week of uncertainty regarding the re-
suit of the balloting for governor of
Kentucky begins with little prospect of
immediate relief. The official count has
been in progress two days, and official
returns from a large majority of the
| 119 counties have narrowed the contest
down to q nose finish. Each side claims
the election of its ticket, but the esti-
mated plurality of either does not ex-
coed 1900.
While the return. so far received
favor Taylor. the result of the count
may hinge on the decision given by the
county election commissioners in sew
eral places where contests have been
begun on the ground of alleged irregu-
larities. One of these contests. that in
Nelson county, has been decided adj
versely to the Republicans. 1t involves
LBS votes-nearly as many as either
side claims as its plurality.
The Democrats will contest the votes
of some of the mountain counties, which
return large Republican pluralitieS.
The most important county involved is
Knox, which gave Taylor 1898 plural
ity. There are also contests in three
precincts in Louisville, which went Re-
publican.
In any event it is difficult to see how
and in the courts can be avoided. All
the contests now being considered by
the county election officers will have
to be argued before the state board of
commissioners which must meet at
Frankfort within a month. Both sides
are preparing for this with all the legal
talent at their command.
Meanwhile, everything hangs on tho

The Commercial tomorrow will print
statement from Chairman Long of
the Republican state campaign commit
tee, claiming a plurality of 3,111 for
Taylor. These figures are based on
the official returns of ITO county cleo
ton boards upon returns signed by the
precinct election officers in eight coun-
ties, more counties in which the county
boards have not furnished tabulation
and upon returns in one county in
which the election officers refuse to
certify to the returns.
The ITO counties giving official re-
turns, show pluralities of 7,121 for Tay-
lor and 1906 for Goebel, a net plural
ity of 2.1S4 for Goebel. In the eight
counties not yet canvassed pluralities
are shown amounting to 6,242 for Taylor
and 1888 for Goebel. The committee
claims that these returns have been
certified TO by the precinct election Off
GERS. and needs only to be tabulated In
the remaining county, Lewis, there is a
plurality of T04 for Taylor. but the
election officers boldly refuse to obey
the law by certifying to their returns

statement from Mr.. GoebeI at Frank

with it the prospect that the immense

Wilson, and her home is in Chicago,
but the case takes its origin in Omaha,
as W. A. Sanders, an Omaha lawyer,
leaves here in a. few days for Butte,
Mont. to file the will for probate.
Andrew j. Davis was one of the most
conspicuous of the wealthy men of
Montana, and when he died. on March
IL, 1890, left an estate valued at from
$1,000, 900 to 100000. No will was to
be found other than. a document exc
cuted in 1864. and aspiring heirs imme-
diately plunged into litigation that was
drawn out into & half dozen years.
During the trials of the various
cases that grew out of the contest, af-
fidavits were filed TO show that other
and later wills than the one of 1864 had
been made by the decedent, but none
of them appeared. The document that
has now turned up purports to have
been executed in October. 1889, some
five months prior to the death of An
