As a complete letter writer. Speaker
Henderson is anything but a success. In
a fresh communication to constituent,
and designed for publicity, he says: The
fighting against the Porto Rican bill comes
from greater interests, that are not dis
turbed so much by the trade with Porto
Rico. but who want free trade with the
ten million savages OF the Philippines.
The greater interests" to which he al
ludes consist Of the bulk OF the American
people who are not disturbed as much
BY the trade with Porto Rico as they
are by the attempt Of the Speaker and
his political associates to suppress The
Constitution Of the United States.
The times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1897-1901, 1900-04-01

Senator Proctor's speech on the Porto
Rican bill on Friday, though brief. was
regarded as clear exposition Of his free
trade ideas. The Senator has peculiarly
vibrant. penetrating voice and speaks
slowly, apparently with the intention oil
permitting his auditors to follow him
closely without effort. He was listened 10
attentively by his colleagues on both sides.

Good Game.

Last Sunday the Grand Marais and
Chippewa City base ball clubs met for
the first time. The game was q good
exhibition of ball, and the spectators ex-
pressed themselves as we'll pleased.
Col. Paine, who is an old time base
ball crank, umpired to the satisfaction
OF both sides, and Capt. j. g. Campbell
rooted for each side indiscriminately.
Considering HE fact that many Of the
players had never played the regulation
game the score was easily within the
limits of good game. rs
The mines were as follows: Chlppewa
Catcher, Frank Frost; pitcher,
Paul LaGarde; s. s., Blex Garde; 1et
B., Joe Thomas; End B.. Geo. Anaquit;

The score at the end Of nine innings

The following extract from letter
written shortly before the war in the
Iransvaal from an official Of President
I 8Kruger's government to correspond
ent here, is, viewed in the light Of re-
cent events, almost prophetic: AS /
predicted TO you four years ago, war is
lpon ns. We are again compelled to
fight for our sfiresides, but do not de-
spair for us. Our struggle isyery much
underestimate Every home is an
arsenal, every man, woman and child
can shoot, and the righteousness 81 our.
cause directs our aim straight. The first
victories will be with us, and you need
not be surprised after these Wet tories to-
see the Dutch from all over South At

cessful, but i believe theresis a utures

THEY WILL NOT BE CHARGED
WITH MURDER.

O3y Telegraph to Virginan- Pilot.|
New York, Oct. G.-Trederick j.
House. attorney for Albert T. Patrick
and Charles f. Jones. who are in the
Tombs. charged with forging the name
OF William Rice to checks for sums
aggregating $3.50 900, had n consulta-
ton with his clients this morning. The
talk was a long one. lasting nearly an
hour on leaving the prison Mr.. House
said he had called to get some further
information concerning the case.
Lawyer House and Assistant District
Attorney Osborne had Il conference to-
day. after which it was announced by
both that Patriclis bail would not be
offered until Monday. Mr.. Osborne was
asked If he had any intention of max
ing a charge of murder against Patrick
and Jones, and said:
AT the present time l certainly have
not any such intention. The men are
charged With forgery in the second de-
gree and the indictment includes both
checks. The chemists analysis has not
been reported to me yet and unless
there is something showing conclusive
evidence of murder | have no intention
OF bringing that charge"
Although the handwriting experts
who have examined the alleged forged
documents in the case agree in their
final verdict as to the forged signature.
there Is already disagreement over the
details of the work. David n. Car
vaiho. one of the experts, after e%amin-
ing the checks drawn on Swenson &
Sons. pronounced both signatures for
gcrieS by tracing Those drawn on the
Fifth Avenue Trust Company he de-
cided were free hand forgcries, as were
the assignment and revocation. 4
Troy expert agreed that the Swenson
checks bore traced signatures-w hat
MIR. Carvalho termed dry pen tracing"
Mr.. Ninsley, one of the Molineaux case
experts. agreed as to the forgeries, but
ridiculed the idea of dry pen tracing
which. he said, was q fallacy. The
other experts reports have not been
made public.

txcnange today. But the very heavy
yecline in the cash reserves of the
panks seemed to have little effect on
lpeculatiye sentiment. The steadiness
pL the market under the showing by
the banks seemed surprising, when it
Is duly considered that great stress has
peen laid by spectators, for the rise on
the OFFSETS to the interior drain of cur
iIency Which We're expected to Mitigate
the cash loss The quantity of specu
.lators In face OF the bank statement
must be due to the convictions that .he
board insures a continuance of the en-
port movement and the making of COM
mercial exchange. With the strain on
the New York money market to harden
interest rates it Is argued that the con-
tinued foreign buying of cotton is likely
to neceSsttate shipments of gold to this
country, probably the coming week. On
the other hand, London must meet an
instalrnent on the Khaki loan subscrip-
ton the coming week and on the fol-
lowing Monday a % per cent. install
ment on the British eXchequer bond
issue, OF which over one.half or about
s7.000,000 is due from American sub
Ecribers. The requirement thus created
upon the London money market and
the New York sterling exchange mar
sket must be balanced against the sup
ply of cotton bills.
