REDUCTION OF INTEREST.

The question Of how to get a par
of the surplus into circulation was dis
. cussed in yesterdays Advertiser by
financial experts, some OF whom pro.
posed. as a means of partial relief. tha.
the interest rate OF the Pos,a, Saving.
. Bank should be cut down from ~ per
cent to 3 or 3i5 per cent. The arg1I-
ment was that this move wou d induce
Withdrawals from the Postal Savings
Bank and therefore from the Treasury
surplus and that deposits would cease.
In consequence the funds now put in
The keeping Of the Government would

amounting on Dee 81. 1898. to s9i2.-

proposed would 20 a long way to re-
.!eye the financial situation.
Ordinarily in debating such a plan
the Advertiser would first take into
account the welfare of the depositors.
The principle of the greatest good

case. have to be invoked. But we
are face to face with the fact that as
soon as annexation is perfected. the
Postal Savings Bank will have 10 90. .
Phere is no place for such an inssitu- !
ton under the United States postal /
laws. That being true there would be
but trifiing advantage in keeping up
the interest rate and one in no way
with the advantage in
putting it down. Seeing that the Bank
cannot live long why let it contract the
medium and stand in the
way OF productive enterprises which
might employ labor. while il does live?
This is a view expressed not only
~ the bankers and financial experts

as it is. goes still further. :

AGUrNALDo LOCATED.
rhe Filipino Insureent said to BE ON His
Way to Boarnbak-AmerIcans VIII
FoIforz HIM I'm.

Washington. Nov. 1O.-The war de-
partment definitely located Aguina1do
yesterday as on his way to the town of
Boambak. about IS miles northeast of
Tarlac. The recent calculations have
been that the insurgent leader was at
the town of Bayambang, not far from
Tarlac, in which case the several forces
under Gen. Macarthur, Lawton.
Young and Wheaton would have had
him practically surrounded. There
has been some doubt, however, as to
the name Bayambang and yesterday
this was cleared up by definite infor-
nation fixing Boambak, instead of
Bayambang, as the place of Aguinal-
dos refuge. A dispatch from Gen.
Otis mentioned Boambak and at the
same time reliable information came
through other channels that Lieut..
Gilmore and other American prisoners
were at Boamb ak, in the mountains far
to the northeast of Tarlac.
1t is expected that the insurgent
capital will be shifted to Boambak
and the efforts of the American mill
tary forces will be directed toward that
point. It is in mountainous country
of the north and apparently out of the
fertile and populous regions where
Aguinaldo thus far has conducted his
operations. It is said to be accessible
from the south by only one route along
a river which is branch of the Rio
Grande- This leaves the rebel leader
little or no opportunity of commune
eating with the coast or getting in sup
plies. He has also left the railroad
behind.

August Becker. Who Was Hanged at ChI-
cago, Got Rid of His Wife in a Most
Brutal Manner

Chicago, Nov. 1.-THE case of Au-
gust Becker, who was hanged here yes
terday for the murder of his wife last
January, in many ways bore remark
able similarity to that of Adolph Luet-
CERT. Both of the condemned men
were butchers, and the motive for the
crime was the same ia both instances,
the desire to get rid of the wife to
marry younger woman. The manner
Of committing the crime was also much
the same, both men, according to the
testimony, being extremely brutal in
the killing and both using the same
means to dispose of the body by boil
ing and burning.
1t was proven at Beclxer's trial that
after killing his wife he had chopped
her body to pieces, then boiled the re-
mains on his kitchen stove, afterward
burying the remains in various places.
As in the case of Luetgert, the rings of
the murdered wife played no small
part in the testimony leading to the
conviction. Like Luetgert, also, Becker
endeavored to explain his wife's disap-
pearance by saying she had eloped with
another man.

LORD sALIsBURY's SPEECH.
At the Lord Mayors Banquet the Premier
Throws Little Light the Ultimate
Fate of the Boer Republic.

London, Nov. 1o.-Lord Salisbury, in
his speech at the lord mayors banquet
last evening, said practically nothing
that would throw light on the ultimate
fate of the Boer republic. The speech
was of the commenting rather than of
the informing order. The pro-Boer
daily Chronicle rather hastily inter
prets his phrase 1--WE seek no gold, no
territory" as meaning that the ma
tional rights of the republic will be re-
spected in the final settlement 1t
thinks his words s'win fall with
soothing effect on Dutchmen in South
Africa" and even goes so far as to say
that if they had been spoken sooner
they would have altogether prevented
war. This is quite an isolated view.
Salisbury distinctly disclaimed any
idea of defining the ultimate settle
ment. The important points in his
speech which attract attention are his
references to the friendship of the
United States and plain statement that
there will be no European interven-
tiOO
