1t is estimated that between 5000 and
5000 men turned out for the march from
all sources. but as the hearts of many of
them were not IN what they were doing
the demonstration" as a Mckinley out

HOPES TO LIFT THE CUP.
Upton Believes the Challenger VIII
BE Winner.

GLASGOW, Nov. Sir Thomas Upton
was in this city Saturday in connection
with his new yacht, the challenger for the
Americas Cup. II an interview he said:
she is going 70 be a wonderful boat.
There IS no question about that / really
believe she Will be next years winner. It
is my business to build a boat that will
bring back the Cup We have got the
best skill and brains Ob1ainable and Moth
ing will be left undone. Last years fail

things.
It is unofficially stated that Sir Thomas
Upton has signed contracts with the Hen
dersons to build the boat. and with the
stipulation that she shall be handed over
to him on March so. The frame work will
be laid down this week. Precautions to
maintain secrecy have already been taken
and the footpath skirting Henderson,
yard has been closed.

CHINESE PANIC-sTRICKEN.
Policy of Won WRIdersee Causes
Consideration Among CeIestiaIs.

PEKIN. Nov 3, via Shanghai. Nov. g
The confirma ton by Field Marshal Count
Won Waldersee of the death sentence passed
on the Chinese officials of Paoting-fu who
were responsible for the murder of mis-
sionaries and other Christians has created
a sensation among the Chinese here. 1t
is believed that the Chinese Peace Plenipo-
tentiaries will ask the ministers to urge
General Won WaIdersee not to carry the
sentences out, but it is not believed that
the ministers will interfere.
The question of securing guarantees for
the safety Of missionaries in the future
may cause a disagreement between the
ministers. as some of the powers do not
think these people are entitled TO special
protection.
There is further complaint about the cru
city of the Germans toward the Chinese
and the unnecessary shooting of numerous
harmless coolies. 1t is believed the atten-
tion of the Commander-in-chief will be
called to the matter.
From present indications, it is not likely
that the members of the court will leave
Singan-fu for Pekin for some months.

Sawdust as Fuel.

writing on the use of sawdust as fuel in
Austria, says: I'm Austria, where every

TelegTaphic advices from Mins-er Con-
ger received at the State Department to
day show that the diplomatic body at
Pekin is making progress in its deter
mination of the programme to be sub
mitted to the Chinese peace p1enipoten-
.iaries as basis for the settlement of
the existing troubles.
The question OF punishment has been
settled and several other points have been
disposed of to the satisfaction of the
ministers taking part in the conference.
While the nature Of the decisions reached
by the conferees are withheld, it is ad-
mitted by the State Department that the
programme thus far completed is very
satisfactory to this Government All the
work of the ministers is ad referendum,
and must be approved by their Govern
ments.
The views of the President on the points
with which Mr. Conger deals in his report
will be telegraphed TO the American Min
lister in DAY or two.
The question of indemnities appears to
be the most serious with which the min
listers are dealing This Government and
Russia have suggested that the amounts
which the Chinese Government should be
compelled to pay he determined by the
tribunal of arbitration at The Hague, but
any fair method of obtaining compensation
for the outrages on American citizens an
property Will be acceptable TO the United
States, it is said, at the State Department.

THE M'DoNoUGH DIVORCE CASE.
The Husbands Denial of the NVife's
Charges.

Charges.
In his answer to the suit for divorce filed
by his wife, ArviIla McDonough, Patrick J.
McDonough, through his attorney, Peyton
Gordon, denies the charge of desertion and
cruelty. In December, 1898, Mrs. McDon-
ough asked for divorce from her husband
on the ground OF desertion. After hearing
the testimony submitted by both parties
the court dismissed the suit. In short
while thereafter Mrs. MeDonough fled an
other petition for divorce. charging her
husband with desertion and cruelty
Mr.. McDonough denies that he was ever
cruel to his wife or that he failed to pro-
vide for her support. On the contrary
after she had deserted him, as, he alleges
she did on several occasions, he still con-
tinued to contribute to her support
McDoncugh declares that in 1898 his
wife wrote him a letter in which she said. .
Me, ! think some now OF applying for a
separation, which is not pleasant sub
ject for me to write about and want to
know if you intend to fight me in the case

people advise me to be free. / expect to

arated."
In another letter Mrs MeDonough is al
legged to have written: LAS We eau never

sitior ant you have enc, so we are living
