An incident of rare occurrence took
place in the office of the Studebaker
Bros. Mfg. Co. Tuesday morning. 1t
was the manifestation of one of those
gems of true sentiment that grow out
of the intense feeling that exists in the
hour of war, but that do not sparkle
until pease is restored just as the hello
trope gathers its perfume during the
violence of the storm, but gives off
that fragrance only to the calm, sum-
mer sun.
Mr.. John S. Johnson, in behalf of
those of the employees of the Stude-
baker Bros. Mfg. Co., who served their
country during the late war with Spain,
presented to the company handsome
memorial in grateful rememberance of
the generosity of the Stud baker Com
pany for having continued them on
the pay roll under full pay during
their absence and for re-employing
them on their return.
Last spring when the troops of this
state were making ready to mobilize at
indianapolis in response to the presi-
dents call for volunteers there were a
number among those who had drilled
with the South Bend company great
many times who were clouded with
doubts as to whether it was duty to go
or remain at home. To 60 seemed duty
to country; to remain seemed duty to
wife, to sister, to mother, to aged
father; not to go seemed moral pain.

Claims for Millions ON Account of
Property Destroyed in Cuba.

WASHINGTON, March 1.-THE De-
partment of State has received claims
to the amount of sd 100000 on ac-
count of property destroyed in Cuba
belonging to American citizens, and
also on account of injuries sustained
by citizens for which pecuniary indem-
nifty is sought.
The peace treaty expressly provides
that the United States and Spain each
shall assume the liability for all such
claims preferred by their respective
citizens Therefore, the United States
Government is probably chargeahle
with all the damages sns sairsed by
Americans throughout Cuba by either
the insurgents or by Spanish troops,
and in the case of some plantations
owned by American citizens, the losses
were very heavy.
Congress made no provision for the
settlement of these Claims, SO, the
State Department is at present unable
to do more than merely file them. 1t
is the purpose of the department, when
Congress meets again, to call atten-
ton to the treaty obligations as issued
by the United States toward these
claimants, and to suggest that some
means of settlement be provided, either
through a commission or by reference
to the Court of Claims.

engagements with West and East Indian
colonies, which would remove the ex
listing reproach that the United States,
by reason of countervailing duties on
bounty-fed imports. is now treating
British planters more justly than the
home Government itself is dealing with
them.
1.-THE foundations for an imperial
zollverein would be laid by duties of
this nature on the lines proposed by
Mr. Chamberlain three years ago, and
the cause of imperial federation would
be promoted by business-like methods
instead of being advocated as vagary of
local sentiment-a beautiful dream.
1.-THE antagonistic sections, if they
could unite in opposition to the duties
on food, would have a rallying cry
for campaigning among the masses.
Sir Edward Grey has already raised the
issue of Government extravaganza as
one on which distracted, demoralized
Liberals can stand shoulder to shoulder,

STEAMER PAvONIA.
Remarkable Demonstration When
the Vessel Reached liverpool.

LIVERPOOL, March 1.-THE Cunard
line steamer Pavonia, Captain Atkins,
which became disabled and had to be
towed into the Azores, arrived here to-
day. Thre was a remarkable demon
stration- Crowds gathered on the
quays and cheered her Justify
The steamer presented a battered
appearance, her spars being carried
away or twisted, her topmast gone.
There were affecting scenes between
the wives and other relatives of the
crew, many of the women weeping
with joy.
The officials of the Cunard line re-
fuse to allow reporters on board the
steamer, saying that the whole cir
cumstances of the Pavonia's break
down will be Investigated in due course
of time. The company, however, de-
nounce the charges of cowardice
against Captain Atkins and Chief
Engineer Duncan by passengers of the
Pavonia who reached New York by
the Portuguese steamer Vega from
Ponta Del Gada, Azores, as being
wicked, malignant and unfounded.''
The officials of the company also de-
clare that the details OF the break
down of the Pavonia alEeady known
sufficiently refute the charges referred
to.

it will be curious meeting between

and the author of the imperial telegram
to President Kruger of the Transvaal
Republic. Mr. Rhodes, it is under
stood, is prepared to offer Germany
freer access to the line and a certain
control over that portion traverSing
German territory. Germany would Sc
cure important concessions and running
powers over the whole Rhodesian rail-
road system
The National Zeitung" anticipates
that Mr. Rhodes will be successful, and
contends that his success will not be
injurious to German colonial interests
in Africa. 1t says coolly: Mr.. Rhodes
is not a favorite here, but German in
terests are not SO identical with those
of the Beers that Germany must for
ever share the feelings of the Trans
vaal toward Mr.. Rhodes"
Other German newspapers which
were formerly anti-Rhodes now APP
prove of an arrangement respecting the
railroad.
1t is further reported that Mr. Rhodes
also includes in his scheme the con-
struction of a railroad from the Atlantic
across German Southwest Africa into
Rhodesia.
The latest advices from the Soudan

General Lord Kitchener will shortly

A squadron of cavalry has been dis
patched from Omdurman up the White
Nile to prevent supplies being furnished

Kordofan.
Several cases have recently come to
light pointing to the prevalence of a
widespread system of secret commits
sions gnawing at the roots of CONNER
cial life, which came as surprise to
the general public. The London Cham
Der of Commerce appointed a commit
etc to investigate the matter and re-
port this week 1t shows that bribery
and corruption are rampant in every
department of business and professional
life. According to the report, commits
sions, which easily pass into brides, are
given to firms or agents to secure GUS
tom. Then the recipients demand sim
liar brides from other firms and the
stress of competition necessitates their
being paid. Thus form of blackmail
has been instituted and also a system
of disposing of inferior articles. The
committee in order to check the evil,
recommends civil proceedings under the
present law and fresh legislation max.
ing the practice criminal.
