l1ersey and Robert Cole, a young man
from New York, who vas also a guest
at the Livingston summer home. went
fishing at o'clock in the morning in
canoe. How the boat was capsized the
message did not state. Both of the young
men were thrown into the water but
clung to the sides of the boat The canoe
was 175 yards from shore, and Mr.. Her
sey, after holding on the boat for some
time, started to swim to shore, being con-
hdent that he would be able to make the
distance safely. Mr.. Cole could not swim,
and it was Mr.. Herseys intention to
reach shore and secure help to rescue Mr.
Cole The latter was still in the water.
supported by the canoe, and watched his
companions S progress with nervous ex-
citement. stiff wind was blowing, and
a wave washed over Mr.. Coles head, and
when he emerged he could see nothing OF
young Hersey. He called for help and his
cries were heard by some campers q short
distance away. Mr.. Cole was rescued by
several of the party, and Immediately
search commenced for Hersey's body.
When Cole last saw Hersey he was swim
ming very strong, about fifty yards from
shore. The suppositiOn is that he was
taken with cramp and rendered helpless
before he could appeal for help.
WAS AN EXPERT SWIMMER.
The latest advices that were received
by members of the family last night in
dicateG that the body had not been found
up to a late hour
Mr.. Herseys friends are at a loss to
understand the accident. E L. Hersey
said last night that his brother was an
expert swimmer Before starting for
shore, the message stated Mr. Hersey
took off his coat. His coat was found
later floating on the top of the water,
but that was all that could be found so
far as E. L. Hersey had been advised.
The only conclusion that can be drawn
from his sudden disappearance is that
when nearing the shore he encountered
the current from one of the many springs
that feed the lake from all sides and his
limbs chilled so severely that he was
taken with a cramp
Mr.. Heresey's young wife was with
him at Mr.. Livingston's home E. L.
Hersey left last evening in company with
George R. Finch for Cable The town
is about twenty miles south of BAYFIELD,.
on the Omaha, and it is not expected
that they will reach here on their re-
turn before this evening in case Mr.. Her
sey was drowned and his body has been
recovered.

DECLINED CHICAGO INVITATION
OWING TO alaska BOUNDARY DIS
PUTE COULD NOT CONSIDER
TRIP TO AMERICA
IT WOULD BE UNIDENTIFIED
Besides, Added Sir WiIfrid, Some
ThOughtIess Persons Might OFFER
an AffrOnt to the Representatives
of Canada-WiI Advise Against
Canada Being Represented at the
Corner Stone Laying.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-Mr. E. W.
Fitzpatrick, of the treasury department,
has just returned to Washington from
Ottawa, where he went at the instance
Of the committee of citizens of Chicago
in charge of the ceremonies of laying the
corner stone of that city's great post
Office building, next October, by Presi-
dent Mckinley, to arrange for the formal
invitation and expected acceptance of an
invitation from Chicago's citizens to the
governor general and cabinet of Canada
to participate in those festivities.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick is the assistant United
States architect, under Architect Henry
Ives Cobb, for the Chicago building. He
admitted that his official reception was
slightly chilly, Sir Wilfrid Laurier very
candidly telling him under the present
conditions it would be impossible for him
to accept or even to consider any social
invitations to this side of the border.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick says that in substance
Sir Wilfrid's voluntary statements and
answers to queries were as follows:
LAS a friend in whom I am deeply in
terested I am glad to see you, but, frank
Iy, as a representative of the federal or
any local government in the United
States your visit could not have been
more untimely. When I received your
first letter I took up the matter with his
excellency the governor general, and he
expressed a sincere desire to visit Chi
cagO, and seemed as anxious to accept
the invitation as 1 was. We would have
been delighted to go, and were looking
forward to the day with much anticipa-
ton. But since that time the tone of
your press has become SO harsh in deal
ing with the Alaskan boundary question,
such Misrepresentation have been made
about our government and particularly
about me, that it would be undignified for
us to visit you, and 1 cannot advise his
eXcellency to CO.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick said that Sir Wilfrid
intimated that in the present state of
public feeling in the United States, as in
dicated in the press, it would not be en-
tirely safe for the governor general and
himself to visit Chicago, as he feared
that they might, in a great gathering of
such a character as the Chicago cere-
mony, be subjected to some unpleasant
ness or indignity by thOughtless persons.
Sir Wilfrid expressed himself as strongly
in favor of arbitrating the Alaskan boun-
dairy dispute, and concluded the interview
as follows:
mo, much as l regret it, I could not go
to Chicago under present conditions and
shall certainly, however painful a duty
it may be, also advise his eXcellency to
decline the invitation that 1 know and
feel has so kindly been extended to us
by the city of Chicago
Mr.. Fitzpatrick secured Sir WilfTid's
promise, however, to reconsider the mat
ter.

So 1t Is Claimed Tor american OFF,

HAVANA, Aug. 4.-Considerable COM
ment was caused here this afternoon by
the publication of a dispatch from the
United States, embodying the charge
made by a leading New York newspaper
that Gov. Gen. Brooke, Brig Gen. Lud-
low, military governor of Havana, Col
lector Tasker Bliss and Maj. Davis, san
itary officer of Havana, have been receiv-
ing extra allowances out of the Cuban
revenues to maintain themselves in lux
ury. The feeling among Americans in
Havana is that this charge is based upon
a serious miSapprehension of the facts of
the case. The suggestion of luxurious liv-
ing perpleXes the CubanS, who are in
position to contrast the democratic way
in which men holding the high rank held
by Generals Brooke and Ludlow con-
duct their establishments, with the prodf-
gay habits of the old Spanish regime
AS to the charge that Gen. Brooke has
expended money in repairing the palace,
the Americans reply that this old and
historic structure had either to be re-
paired and renovated or to be pulled
down, and consequently about 100000
have been expended on it. But it is point
ed out, instead of being, as heretofore,
the private residence of the governor
general, the palace is now available for
the work of public officers, including one
large wing to the mayor and municipal
officials. Gov BroOke's private quarters
are unequal to what would be allowed
him at any station III the United States.
Aside from the official reception room.
his apartments are only modestly fur
nished.

LONDON, Aug 5.-M de Blovitz tha
-'arls correspondent of the Times, gives
an extraordinary explanation of M. Del

1t was decided on quite suddenly for 2.
reason which admitted of no delav." and
then gives the story, which he saws he
mas from "a source to which 1 am bound
to attach Importance" This is the ex-
pianaticn:
Emperor Nicholas is disappointed and
tired OF the throne. The absence of an
he1r eXcites his superstitious feelings. and
ne connects himself with a Russian
legend according to which an heirless
czar is to be succeeded by czar Michael,
predestined to occupy Constantinople.
The death of the czarewitch and the
failure of the conference at The Hague
led him to decide to abdicate on the oc-
casion of his coming visit to Darmstadt,
On this becoming known in Paris, NJ.
Delcasse was sent in hot haste to dis
suade him from carrying out this in

Upon for Health Certificates.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, Aug 4-Health
Commissioner F. c. Schultz, in his annual
report to the city council, recommends
the passage of a bill providing for the
medical examination of all young men
who apply for marriage licenses. In de-
scribing the several diseases which have
caused havoc in the health of the COM
munity, embracing smallpox, diphtheria,
scarlet fever and kindred ailments, the
commissioner includes also the disease
common to men only, such as certain
ferns of insanity, dipsomania and other
ills, and enlarges at some length upon
the baneful effects of allowing them to
GO unchecked and unnoticed by medical
authorities.
DIR. Schulz makes reference to a similar
law existing in Ohio, and indicates that
the course recommended would be in har
mcny with more advanced medical ideas.
