the conclusion that Saturdays bank
statement indicated that all vexed
problems in the money market had been
settled and that ease and abundance
of funds were now at hand. The first
sharp advance in stocks, however, dem
onstrated that the pressure of some
heavy selling would have to be encoun-
tered on any general upward move
ment. The market thereafter lapsed
into the spotty condition which has
been its recent characteristic.
A small number of stocks showed
very marked strength, but the usually

A mys,er.ous Disappearance.

The mysterious disappearance OF Cor
don Beach, husband Of the late post
mistress at Jimtown, is creating some
interest here. The man has not been
seen for over four weeks, but the facts oi
his mysterious disappearance just be.
came known through Herbert Luplow
who arrived from Elizabeth. Colorado
Thursday. Luplow and Beach left
Boulder in company four weeks ago, and
after spending several days in Denver
boarded the train for Elizabeth where
the former was going on business
Beach had no particular business there
and only announced his intention of 60.
Ing as the traia. which he boarded to bid
Luplow goodbye. pulled out from Den.
yer. When they reached Elizabeth. in
stead of getting off with Luplow. he re
tanned his seat and said he was going on
That is the last that has been heard ol
him. Luplow says he thought Beach
would return to Boulder and was much
surprised when he arrived, to find tha
this was not the case. Beach had little
money with him when last seen. Hi!
brother is devoting all his energies t.
find trace OF the missing man.

Growers Sarcasm.

The interview with ex. President Cleve.
land. printed in tine News Yesterday,
does him little credit. He cannot, of
course, be criticised for expressing his
opinion on expansion. Indeed, the coun-
try should be glad to have his counsel.
But the tone of the interview seems to us
unworthy of its author.
Mr.. Cleveland knows that, after Dew
ey's victory. only three courses were
open to the administration. 1t could
have turned the islands back to Spain,
thus allowing her to continue the slaugh-
ter of the natives. THIS would have been
the effect of ordering Dewey to sail away
after he had destroyed the Spanish fleet.
1t might. in the second place, immediate
ly have abandoned the islands to Aguin.
aldo without shadow Of proof that he
could maintain a government, or that he
represented the true sentiments of the
people. This policy would also have
meant more slaughter. Grit might have
done, what was done-insisted on the
cession of the islands, in order that we
might establish government that would
really govern in accordance with modern
ideas. There was no other possible
course. And the course actually chosen
seems to US the best possible one for all
parties.-Indianapolis News.

Rome. Ga, Jan. I4-The Rome Trib-
une prints story about the mysterious
disappearance of Chief of Police Shrop-
shire, of Atlanta, who has been missing
since the Atlanta exposition, which is
calculated to excite interest. 1t is stated
that Shropshire got acquainted with a
woman at that time. got stupidity drunk
and was put in Saratoga trunk by heI
and checked to California. On arriving
there the woman was unable to find hel
check and it was three days before he
was released. This is the story he tel
egraphed home. He was short in hi.
accounts and he asked his friends to set

Washington, Jan. I4-Hon. Nelson
Didgley, of Maine, leader of the Repub.

representatives, died here last night at
half past 10 o'clock of heart failure, re.
sulting from extreme weakness due to
grip and pneumonia.
He was unconscious during most of the
day and death came quietly without con-
sciousness being regained. All the mem
bers of his family were at his bedside.
Until within few hours before his death
the family thoroughly believed, as it has
throug hout his illness, that MIR. Dingley
would recover.
While the last few days have given
great hope of recovery, the progress of
the disease has made the patient dan.

Manila Refugees at Hong Kong Tell Dis

Hong Kong, Jan. I4-The condition ol
the American army at Manila is report.
ed to be at once critical and embarrassing
Refugees arriving in this city from there
affirm that the volunteer troops are in a
mutinous state and that the seriousness
of the situation has been suppressed by
the news censor. They refer to the in.
stance of the ten volunteers jumping
overheard and swimming ashore as
illustrative of the conditions. The
refugees say tha, if Congress does NOT
take action and declare war, the serious.
ness of the conditions will continue. The
Americans enlisted to fight Spaniards
and have no fight with the insurgents.
OF course, if they are attacked by the in.
surgen.s they will defend themselves,
but they will not take the aggressive.
The American commanders are much
embarrassed over the situation. They
can depend on the regular troops only IN
case an advance is ordered.
The refugees say that the city of Ma.
nila is invested on all sides by the in.
surgents and is practically in state OF
siege. There has been some parleying
with Aguinaldo, but without any material
results. A declaration of war against
the Filipinos ora radical change Of
policy is imperatlvely necessary.

Claims that No Reports of American Mu

Washington. Jan. I4-Adjutant Gen
eral Corbin states that in one despatch
General Otis has reported the conditions
at Manila improving. but that no men
ton of Iloilo has been made. The re-
port of dissatisfaction among American
troops be dismisses as false and unfound
ed. Gen. Otis has never even mentioned
trouble among the troops and has spok-
en- of them only to compliment their dar-
ing and discipline. Many of the volun.
teers were anxious to get home after the
first fighting with the Spanish was over
but since the prospect of more fighting
has arisen, no more requests for dis
