He comes to meet President Kruger,

Mr.. Kruger's plans Mr.. Leyds replied:
Really, know scarcely more than
you do adding smilingly:
Hereafter you must apply to the
president himself for information when
he gets here. One man will represent
the Transvaal and one man only"
Several delegations met DR. Leyds at
the railway station in Afarseilles- He
postponed discussion of the Kruger re-

there was no demonstration. DR.. Leyds

MR. Low NOT IN 1T
S'Under No Circumstances" 1
Senatorial Candidate.

NJ. A. Low is out of the list of posi-
bilities for United States senator. Mr..
Low, in a statement to some Of his
friends. said:
Under no circumstances will I be a
candidate for United States senator. Ny
present position in the service of the
Rock Island railway company satisfies
me. and I would not be disposed to
change places for Senator Bakers seat,
even If the opportunity should present
ITSELF
This takes Mr.. Low out of the con-
test He may remain a dark horse. but
for that matter the woods are full of
receptive candidates and they will con-
tinue to multiply until the end It has
been said that Mr.. Low, to avoid COM
uniting himself. will go hunting next
week and will remain away a month
Mr.. Low goes on this trip every fall, and
his going this year is OF no political sig
nif1cance. He will be gone only two
weeks. It is possible for him to be
elected senator this winer. for there is
no telling what the legislature will do,
but it is certain that he will not in
vite or encourage anything of the kind,
and his acceptance is doubtful, even il
elected.

given up the position of steward at the
Topeka asylum and Murray Myers, of
Wichita, has been elected to succeed him.
Myers is a close friend of Governor

He assumed this position in accordance
with the provisions of a decision of the

A majority Of the members of the board

for Shaner's removal, but when confront
ed with the legal phase of the PROPOSE
ton, which guarantees the steward the
right to investigation, they declined to
act, so the matter was patched up, the
scandal which the members of the board
alleged was hushed, and Mr.. Shaffer was
permitted to resign.

THE ICE TRUST.
Governor Roosevelt Answers the Van
Wyck Charges.

Albany, N. T. Nov. 19.-Governor
Roosevelt has prepared the following
memorandum of the charges against
Mayor Van Wyck of New York City in
the Ice Trust matter:
There are three wholly distinct sides
to the let Trust matter.
In the first place, there is the general
question whether the American Ice COM
pany, dealing as it does in a necessary
of life to the poor people of New York
is one into which it was proper for a
public spirited man to enter. This is, of
course, not a question for legal action
in any shape or form.
Moreover, it is unnecessary to point
out that, whether the corporation is
legal or illegal, proper or improper in
character, it is an act of utter hypocrisy
on the part of any public man to de-
nounce trusts in general, and this trust
in particular, in the platform and on the
stump, while he at the same time, in
his private capacity holds stock, or has
held stock, that he thus denounces.
Attention is called to this feature
simply because an effort has been made
to show that unless legal action against
the trust or some of its Stockh olders can
be taken, these same public men are to
be exOnerated
"Second-There is the question wheth-
er or not the existence of this so-called
let Trust is in violation of the anti
trust law. This, of course, can only be
decided by the courts.
ION May %, 1900, the attorney general
instituted proceedings to annul the GER
tificate of the Ice company under this
law. The corporation, through its coun-
sci, has fought the action at every stage
on technicalities, not on the merits of
the case. The first decision before Judge
Chester was in favor of the state. An
appeal has been taken by the defendants
which was argued weeks ago, and the
attorney general is daily expecting
decision by the appellate division on this
appeal. The defendants obtained a stay
of proceedings pending the appeal
"All possible diligence has been shown
by the attorney general in the effort to
secure the annulment of the certificate,
and nothing could have been done by
the state to expedite proceedings. which
has not been done. The delay is due,
of course. to the course of the corpora
ton itself, whose stockholders include
the public men above alluded to.
I'VE now come to the third side of the
matter the only one in which the gov
ernor, in his official capacity. has any
power whatsoever to act, viz, the
charges against Mayor Van Wyck.
''Inasmuch as the question as to
whether the ice corporation is or is not
a trust or monopoly is before the courts,
for decision, until they have acted, ac-
ton by the governor can only with pro-
priety be taken, under the Greater New
York charter. So far as the charges are
brought under this charter, it makes no
difference as regards the mayors con-
duct, whether the aforesaid corporation
is or is not trust within the meaning
of the law

BERNHARDT'S PLAN.
May Alternate With operate Stars
Upon Her Return to Paris


Paris, Nov. 19.-There was a prodig-
ious coming and going of guests, trades
people, dramatists, even of mere guests.
at the residence of Sarah Bernhard
prior to her departure for America, and
more plans were sketched out for what
she should do on her return to France
than the great artist will ever be able
to accomplish. despite her tremendous
activity.
Beyond any manner of doubt one of
the bOldest of tIlese-and its very bold
ness, as well as its character of refined
art, was well calculated to attract this
most enterprising of manageresses-a
project of which no whisper has been
published and which has to be tempo
raTily abandoned in face of the enor-
nous expenditure which it would entail,
was to add next year to the Theater
Sarah Bernhard an opera company
whose performances would alternate
with those of the eminent tragedienne.
To a few friends Sarah had begun to
sketch out the elements of the company
she wished to gather-the De Reszke
brothers, who, as is well known. for a
long time past have cherished the idea
of esta blishing in Paris a model opera,
to which they would lend their talents
and their artistic sense; Mile. Breval,
NJ. Plancon and many others.
This plan, conceived on the eve of de-
parture for America, is perchance only
a castle In Spain, but with Sarah the
seemingly impossible has so often been
realized that it is permissible to say,

the market and prices declined rapidly

CORN-Corn was strong ana hlgher.
Weather conditions were unfavorable in
the extreme and the demand was gen.
eral. November with fair trade showed
an exceptionally wide range, opening at
from 1878 to 41c, and selling high as
4314c, there evidently being some anxiety
among shorts in regard to possible
351kQ5sc and sold at S57sc, reacting a
shade soon after Receipts were 469 cars
Corn was also affected by the large Wis

long stuff came out at the advance and

as there are only about 100, 900 bushels of
all grades in Chicago elevators, fears of
a bad squeeze made an active market for
a time. Later the price dropped back to
a point nearly level with Saturdays close.
Phillips is said to have bought the bulk
of his corn at between 36c and &c.
OATS-OatS were steady and a little
firmer than of late, the atrength being
due to sympathy with other grain mar
