MANILA'S STRANGE PANICS.
Our Forces There Unable to Learn
the Mystery of Their Sud-
den Outbreak.

All of the recent letters from Manila
refer to the panics which seized the in
habitants of the city at frequent inter
walls during the days just preceding the
recent battle. One Of these stampedes
is thus described by Capt. Elliott, of the
Coffeyville company in the Twentieth
Kansas: About 2:3O o'clock the ma
tives and Chinese were observed to be
running in every direction. Presently
the soldiers began to come from every
avenue in the direction of the barracks.
They moved quickly, but with remark
able coolness and steady demeanor.
Corp. Barber, whom ! had sent on an
errand near the barracks of the First
battalion, came to my room, saluted
like the good soldier that he is, and
said: Captain, there is something
wrong going on in the city; the natives
are fairly flying in all directions. the
Chinese are running like rats TO their
holes and the stores are being closed
Like reports came in from all direc-
tions from men who had been in differ
ent parts of the city. The call to quar-
tiers was sounded, the rolls were called
and every man of my company not on
duty answered Here The same was
true of the other companies of our bat
talon. Two or three officers were
caught away from home and did not
get in on time.
'On the Escolta, at the bridge of
Spain, and in the walled city the scene
that followed was beyond my powers
of description. No one seemed to be
aware of the cause Of the stampede. |
never witnessed anything like it in my
life. The wave of excitement swept
over the entire city after the manner
OF cyclone. The street cars were
jammed together in groups; carrabos'
carts piled up against one another and
barricaded the narrow streets, occu-
pants thrown out; doors and shutters
were closed and barred: men, women
and children ran hither and thither and
crowded and jostled one another in
their frantic efforts TO escape some
dreadful, direful calamity.
The soldiers alone behaved with ad-
mirable GOODNESS. Guards were doubled
and trebled. In an incredibly short
space of time platoons of infantry were
thrown across each approach to the
great bridge, and no one but soldiers
afoot was allowed TO pass. Armed men
took possession of the Escolta and the
avenues leading thereto and used their
persuasive powers to calm the storm
and bring order out of chaos. American
courage and display of American
sense and judgment prevailed In less
Than an hour the 'whirlwind' had
passed and trade and traffic were re-
sumed. The question with the soldier
was: What in the was it all about,
anyway ?"-kansas City Journal.

Tried to IL. p.n.oer.,,~

Comte de Chambruu. who recently
died at Nice in ms sixty eighth year
was one OF the most remarkable men
of contemporary France. For very
many years he sat in the chamber and
the senate as liberal. without identi-
flying himself with any political fac
tion. lie had the interest of the work
ing classes deeply at heart, and, find
ing that legislation was not likely to
do much for them, he tried what he
could by personal effort. He had mar
ried the heiress OF the great Baccarat
glass works. and, being childless. cp-
joyed nm enormous income, which his
wife willingly aided him in spending
on social reforms. Some seven years
ago he became totally blind, and then
had the misfortune to lose his wife,
but to the last he pursued his noIble
aim with undiminished ardor.-Chicago

A TOBACCO CITY"
The E1ort 60 Gais for Richmond .
Distinction Now Enjoyed BY
Other Places

Pittsburgh is the Iron City" among
American municipalities, Chicago is the
Live Stock City" Boston is the Wool
and Woolen Wear City" Troy is the
Collar and Cuff City" and Paterson il
the City of American Silk" distinc-
tions which is found impracticable by
rivals TO overthrow and which have
been retained only through vigorous eff
forts and against active competition
A sixth is perhaps to be added to the
number of American cities which have
distinctive celebrity, in Richmond.
Va. AT recent meeting of tobacco
nists At the Westmoreland club il wa-
suggested TO make bright loose leaf
market in Richmond.
There are many large buyers of
bright tobacco, and all are influential
in the tobacco community. Most of the
bright tobacco used in Richmond now
is bought in North Carolina markets.
All this great business is to be trans
ferred to Richmond. Several similar at
tempts have been made in recent years,
but they failed because they lacked tn.
proper backing. There are two internal
revenue districts in Virginia, the Sec
ond, in Richmond, and the Sixth, in
Lynehburg. In the Richmond district
last year 26,oOO,0oO pounds of leaf to-
bacco were used in tobacco manufac-
turing larger quantity than in any
other, with one exception, in the coun-
try, and the proposition is % make
Richmond the vcritable tobacco city"
of the country, tor which distinction il
has many advantages, being in the
heart of rich tobacco district, in easy
access OF the coast line, which the to-
bacco districts OF Kentucky and Mis-
sonri are not, and railroad center.
which is not the case with any city in
North Carolina.
Richmond is gaining rapidly in
wealth and population, and the extent
of its tobacco interest is such as to JUS
tity the belief that it will ultimately eN-
cccd all other American cities in this
particular. Richmond has now more
than $1,000, 900 invested in tobacco fac
tories.-N. y. sun.
