with the European governments respecting
this Boxer agitation. Thus. at Taku. Ad-
miral Kempn IL acting in a similar manner
TO the commanding officers OF the foreign
navies there assembled. although his orders
are subject to the approval of no one. At

RICH MR.. KRUGER.
The Substantial Fortune Dom Paul
VIII Retire On.

London Mail.
Those who are in the habit of thinking OF
Mr.. Kruger as a mere farmer may be sur
prised to hear that he is a millionaire at
least once. How many times over that
nice round sum has accumulated in his saw
ings il is impossible to say.
To begin with, he has the handsome
salary as president of seven thousand a
year. together with coffee allowance.
which is three hundred year Being of
a frugal turn of mind. Mr.. Kruger has
for many years past lived on his coffee
money, while out of his presidential sal
airy and ''perquisites he is believed TO
have succeeded in saving about thirty thou
sand a year.
Over and above this Mr.. Kruger has
many indirect sources of income. 1t has
been shown that he has very large In
terest in the Netherlands Railway, while he
is also directly concerned in the consump-
ton of dynamite, as well several other
hourishing monopoies.
Mr.. Kruger owns over one hundred farms
in different parts of the Transvaal. Some
are productive, others are not. For In
stance. in the Rustenburg district many of
the best tobacco-growing farms are his,
and the lessees pay him very handsome
rents.
His gold mining farms have also brought
him in a goodly amount; few he has sold
to the hated uitlander capitalist. others he
retains, or hopes to retain.
Comparatively recently a farm he had
gold-mining company, and although his
name does not appear in the list of share
holders he received almost the whole of
the purchase price in Cash. 1t is said that
many of the Transvaal Presidents safest
investments have been made i'm Holland
and Germany. He is likewise reported to
be a heavy holder of German consols and
French rentes.
Personally Mr.. Kruger is not a generous
individual. despite his great wealth. At the
time of the dreadful dynamite explosion in
Johannesburg a few years ago the Uitland-
er firms subscribed magnificent total not
far short of eS000O to alleviate the dis
tress of the families whose bread-wianers
were killed. All the victims were either
Beers. natives, or Chinamen: literally not
one Englishman suffered Mr. Kruger was
asked for subscription, and promised f25.
His name was put down on the subscrip-
ton list for that sum, but, despite con-
tinual dunning on the part of the secre-
tary. the subscription was never forth
coming.

LOYAL TO HIS BROTHER.


Two brothers. Walter r. and Gilbert II.
Glasscock, of Cleveland. twenty miles east
of Indianapolis. took the examination for
cruiting station at 1880 yesterday morning
and by o'clock In the afternoon they had
been sworn in regular soldiers and
dressed In military clothing from head to
toe.
Several days ago Walter Glasscock.
scarcely twenty years old, applied at the
recruiting station for enlistment He said
his father had driven him away from home.
but he carried recommendations as to his
character from T. c. Collins postmaster at
Cleveland. and a census enumeration named
Thomas Notwithstanding this. he
quired TO get his fathers consent, and il
came by return mail. Yesterday his older
came TO the recruiting station, and said his
father had driven his brother away but
he intended to enlist and stay with him.
He had walked all the way from Cleveland
here. His devotion TO HIS brother attracted
the soldiers at the Office and Major Noble
was called i'm TO see the recruits.
Walter was dressed in a rough-looking
coat, calico shirt and overalls. His shoes
were broken. Gilbert was better clad and
showed that he had been around some,
out OF the county. The general appearance
did not strike the major. but he told them
to proceed with the examination. The ex-
aminations passed were two Of the best on
record in the recruiting office.
Major Mobiles attitude had changed and
he was enthusiastic over the two recruits.
He lost no time I'm swearing them in and
was in hurry 10 have them don the blue
to see what fine specimens he had captured.
The boys quiet demeanor also won over
all the soldiers at the Office.

FRAUD AND DECEIT.
Confession of Alexander keegan
When Confronted by Death.

NEW YORK, June 5.-Knowing that
death is near, Alexander Keegan to-day
made an affidavit confessing fraud and de-
ceit in an attempt to recover damages from
the Third-avenue Railroad Company. In
1894 Keegan was injured in a collision be-
tween car and a cart. Subsequently he
sued the road and the owner of the cart.
There followed years of litigation. Keegan
succeeded in making judges and doctors
believe that epileptic fits. TO which he was
subjected, were the result of the accident
and he secured a verdict for $1,000 The
case was appealed and is now on the Court
affidavit that he never suffered from cpl
leptic fits and that whatever pain and loss
of memory he suffered was the result of
a bullet wound inflicted by himself eigh-
teen years ago.

UNION CARPENTERS
VIII Not Work for One of the Lead
ing Contractors.

The Carpenters Union last night passed
resolutions declaring unfair the contrac-
tor who has been standing out against
them and refusing TO pay union wages. II
was also voted that no man in the union
will work for him and the same matters
will be considered by the German union
tonight. Then it will be taken to Central
Labor Union Monday night and boycotts
may be established on some of the men
for whom he is working unless he is made
to recede. Harry Travis. business agent Of
the carpenters, says this contractor has
been on the unfair list for some time and
at his own request his name was lifted
from the list on the agreement that he
would treat with the men and pay the
union scale. The statement the contractor
makes that he cannot employ union men,
Mr.. Travis says, is because he will not
pay union wages. He says while the con-
tractors name was off OF the unfair list
he secured a large number OF the choicest
jobs I'm indianapolis. on specified contracts
and then went back 70 employing nonunion
men.
