SETS RUMURs AT REST,


Latest Action of GERMANY Regarded se
Renewing All Cause For Trouble.
WAsHISGToN. March 2..-The German
government has SET ;at rest effectually
the rgmors of a purpose on its part, di-
rectly or indirectly, to EN- barrass the
United States N riie Philippine islands
and has given a signal manifestation Of
| its desire to % omote the most cordial
relations between Germany and the
| United States by ordering the with
drawal Of all vessels of its navy from
the Philippine islands and placing the
lives and property of it's subjects there
under the protection of the United
| States.
The action taken isregarded as mas
ter stroke in diplomacy by which will
be removed all probability OF a clash
with German interests in and about
Manila. and notice to the world, espe-
cially any Americans who entertained
any suspicion of sinister designs on the
part of Germany, of the intention of the
German empire to promote friendship.
BY its withdrawal Germany places its
affairs in the Philippines Is
Almost Completely in Our Hands.
The news Of the withdrawal of Ger
many came at the close of day that
had been full of sensational rumors ola
clash between Germans and Americans
in Manila, the rumors even going to the
extent of saying that Admiral Dewey
had fired on and sunk German vessel
in Manila bay. These rumors spread
despite the fact that the cable connect
ing Manila with the outer world is in
control of the United States govern
ment and that it might be reasonably
expected that it would be the govern
ment that would receive the first news
of any disaster or collision at Manila,
and at the White House, war depart
ment and navy department positive de-
malls of the rumors were made. Finally,
at the close of the day and after the Of
fetal close of the departments, an
nouncement was made of the reason for
the great confidence the officials had in
the falsity of the rumors, the statement
being authorized that by one bold stroke
Germany had removed all possibility Of
Any Clash Between Hotheads 8'
at Manila. It was announced that the
German government had ordered their
ships away from Manila, probably to
their new naval station at Kiao Chau,
on the Chinese coast. The German GOV
eminent followed its announcement to
the, state, department of purpose TO
order its vessels away from the Philip
pines with formal application to the
United States government. to undertake
the protection of all the Germans in the
Philippines, not only in person, but in
property. This was regarded as a sig
nal manifestation of confidence andas
practically formal notice that the Ger
mans have no Interior purpose in the
Philippines and rather than be sub
jected to suspicion on that score has
taken the course of turning over the
care and welfare of theircftizns to the
American government. The admins
tration promptly accepted the trust and
there will be no German ships at either

SPANS Cuban Bonds Repudiated.

Washington, Sept. 23.-Spain has de-
clared that Cuba must pay the accru-
ing interest on bonds issued by Spain.
This has brought statement by the
state department, which closes witv
this:
The United States, therefore, has as
sumed no obligations for and has no in
terest whatever in the declarations of
the Spanish cabinet on the debts of
Spain or how they shall be paid. The
present declaration looks like a repudi-
alton of the debt, principal and in
terest.
The state department argues that
when Spain relinquished her sovereign
ty in Cuba, she relieved that island
of debts contracted to keep her in bond
age.
This construction. it is said. is affirm
ed in the notes which passed between
the two disputing commissions when

New York, Sept. 26.-New York City

amount has been found to be made

end, as several other appropriations
will be asked for later on to cover con-

good portion of the $50, 900 last
voted will be used in erecting stands
for the school children of the city.
Seats will be provided for 10000 chill

UNCLE SAM REFUSES GOLD.
VIII Not Take 1t In Exchange for Silver
Which Is a Scarce Commodity.

Washington, Sept. 23.-It may be an
astonishing statement to say that the
United States government refuses to
accept gold of its own coinage in ex-
change for silver dollars. but that is
what at least one sub-treasurer is ac-
tually doing.
the complaint comes from ST. Louis,
where the sub-treasurer declines to eX-
change silver dollars except for silver
certificates. Neither gold nor bank
notes will tempt the white coins from
his vaults.
1t is quite possible for the United
States treasury to reach a point where
a general order will be issued to all
sub-treasurers forbidding them to ex-
change silver dollars for gold, national
bank notes or any other form of cur
rency except silver certificates
Uncle Sam presents the remarkable
spectacle of trying to get rid of gold
and boarding silver.
The treasury has on hand S4O6, SO, 436
in silver dollars, but the most of these
must be retained in the vaults for the
redemption of the silver certificates,
which aggregate S4O6. 1S7, 5O4. This
leaves 1888, 932 in silver dollars in the
treasury and its branches that are not
covered by notes.

Foster and is suit over disputed ac-
count.
Attorney Stricklcr, for the defend
ants, resisted the attempt to collect a
bill on the grounds that the master
plumbers association is trust, and ac-
cording to the statute passed in 1897 its
members cannot collect money due
them, such being the provision of that
statute.
The reply of the plaintiff to this is
that the association is not a trust. but
trade union, and that if it is a trust
the statute is unconstitutional.

ship, and that the Texas and Machias
will also be got ready by October 8 to
enlarge the squadron under Schley, and
that his assignment will assume a semi

Schley is rated to be the most fluent
Spanish linguist in the American navy.
If the present program is carried out,
he viii be instructed to take his feet to
Cadiz and officially salute the Spanish
flag at that port as the first official act
of courtesy to our late foemen.
Schley is to take command October 3.
By that time the Spanish government
will have the Carlos /. available, and
after the Spanish flag has been saluted
at Cadiz, the Carlos will steam to Hamp-
