Would welcome DEVELOPMENT.

Vice Consul Harrison at Asuncion reports
to the State Department that the Para
guayan government has granted valuable
concession to the Paraguay Development
Company, incorporated under the laws of
New Jersey, and having its headquarters
at Philadelphia, and would undoubtedly
give other concessions to reliable concerns.
The concession is to light the city of As
uncion and to run tram cars by electric
power, the service to be in operation within
two years from date of concession.
THE country needs transportation facili-
ties to enable 1t to exploit its natural re-
sources, and l feel confident says the
consul, that the government would grant
liberal concessions to railways. Industries
are unknown in the country, and the gov
eminent would welcome and protect the de-
velopment of almost anything in this line

Every Indication That 1t is Favorable
to Mckinley.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
WILMINGTON. Del. October 24.-The
registration in this state is still a matter
of question Mr.. Billany chairman of the
republican first district committee, and Mr.
F. S. Bradley, chairman of the union re-
publican first district committee, got to-
gether last night to compare notes, and
strange it may seem, they agreed in the
general conditions.
The democrats claim that they registered
LOCO more than their opponents on Satur-
day last, but there figures to prove
this. In fact while they did do themselves
proud their total would not exceed two or
three hundred in excess of their opponents.
Messrs Billany and Bradley have issued
the following statement: Owe have COM
pared the returns of the five days registra-
ton made to us by our committeeman. and
We claim. unhesitatingly. that the republic
cans registered majority of the men quail
flied to vote each of the five days Of
registration
While such statements are purely parti-
san. it is not to be denied that they are
very nearly correct. The figures of the two
opposing factions Fepubican) are practi-
cally the same. 1t Is apparent that all of
the republicans are working together here
In Wilmington and the indications are that
there will be a handsome plurality for Nc
kinley IN the city.

ical gathering in Wilmington. That he will

NOT DISPOSED TO BE HARSH.
Reply of Major Sylvester to Charge
Against Police.


Margaret F. Crukshanks of 1927 31st
street a few days ago complained of the al
legged injustice occasioned by the arrest by
the police of several Italian vendors of
fruit. While she had complaint to make
Of the manner of the officers in carrying
out their instructions. she expressed the
opinion that the Italians and Chinese, as
a rule. seem to be quiet and inoffensive.
and that if foreigners are to be admitted
the authorities ought to encourage them to
live honestly.
and observed, but I thought that if your
attention called to this case you might
find a means to make the burden less oner-
Gus to these poor people.
The matter was referred to Major SElNes-
ter. the chief of police, who has reported
TO the Commissioners that there is no DIS
position on the part of his department TO
be harsh toward the fruit vendors, but that
the law requires that they shall keep NOV
ing. except at such times as they may De

The policemen. he states, have repeatedly
advised vendors against taking up stands
in and about the main thOroughfareS. where
street cars are being operated and crowds
are coming and going, especially on Satur-
day evenings. These warnings. says Major
Sylvester. have gone unheeded, and 1t be-
came a matter of duty on the part of the
officers to see that the law was enforced.
With the limited force at hand de-
clares Major Sylvester. drastic measures
have to be adopted at times in order to
prevent undue advantage being taken OF
the municipal regulations.
The Commissioners have approved Major
Sylvester's report, and the complainant will
be SO advised

Old Age and Death.
From the New York Herald.

From tn.. New 1orA kie1aiu.
Former Secretary of State Sherman Is re-
norted to have died Of simple old age. In
spite of an extraordinary busy career,
with itS incidental mental strain, he is said
to have had no distinctly organic disease.
The enc was simply a general stoppage OF
the entire vital machinery. The time limit
with him appeared very near the four score
mark.
Although no positive malady may have
existed, the explanation of death Is plainly
evident in the slow and insidious degenera-
tive changes that affect the more important
organs during advancing years. After
a Certain period, variously estimated from
fifty-five to sixty years Of age. the general
system begins to demand less from nu.rl-
ton than formerly, and physical decnhe
gives notice of its coming. The fres purrl

the morning mail, Of which he was in
charge. sufficient number of cash items to
cover the aggregate amount of his defalca-
ton and add them to the exchanges for the
clearing house received during the preced-
ing day. The examination of the exchanges
at the time of examination showed the
total amount correct, but s6sO-0o0 of the
Items had been taken from the morning re-
ceipts and listed with previous days eX-
changes. the amount of morning additions
being reduced that much so that the sum
of the two aggregated the correct amount.
A change in the slip by Alvord later in the
day caused inquiry and comparison to be
made at the clearing house, when it was
discovered that the two items of previous
days exchanges and morning additions
did not correspond with the list checked by
the examiner, and a count of the current
days cash and checks in hands of third
teller revealed shortage of $3.50, 600 The
shortage seems to have been about 100000
two years ago and has been increased
gradually since that time, the teller con-
cealing the same in the morning addi-
uons, which always amount to much more
than the amount of his shortage and never
enter into the count of the preceding days
cash.
There is no way to have a check on the
morning additions to the exchanges except
by counting the note teler's cash and
checks twice, or to begin examinations of
cash in the evening. which is otherwise OBJ
jectionable.
THE bank has charged out the amount
plus undivided profits account
"A further examination of Alvord's ac-
counts by the officers of the bank shows
that his stealings have been going on for
several years. Fourteen months ago he
took two weeks vacation, and an ex-
animation of his tickets preceding lis go
ing and after his return shows that he COW
cred his shortage while absent by making
number Of charges to out-Of-town ac-
counts, and credited back the amounts en-
his return before the monthly statements
were sent out. The amount of his shortage
at various periods in the past seems to
have gone up and down, and 1t Is probable
this is due to the fact that whenever he
had reason to expect any investigation of
his cash or a periodical visit from the ex-
aminer, he would doctor 1t by means of
these false charges against large accounts.
In the present instance the examiner went
into the bank a month ahead of the usual
six months period, the last preceding. ex-
animation having been made May Is. 1900,
and this unexpected visit prevented a
manipulation of the figures by Alvord and
led to discovery Of the defalcation.
This theft could probably have been pre-
vented by a rotation Of the clerical force
of the bank, thus placing each department
under the supervision Of different persons
successfully.
There is no way to accurately check the
accounts Of an employe if he has access to
the succeeding days cash from which to
make good his shortage of the current day
land this is what Alvord has always kad),
and has also the opportunity to hold back

WOMAN'S HOME MISSION

DR.. RairOws Talks of the Prestige of

CHICAGO October 24.-The Woman's
Home Missionary Society of the Methodist
Church raised it's Twentieth century
thanks Offering of 100000. New pledges
amounting to over 100000 We're reported
last night at the session of the South
Park Church. The corresponding secretary,
Mrs. Della Lathroo Williams, announced
that previously 100000 had been raised
making aggregate of 100000. the full
apportionment of the society.
Preparatory to the pledges. Mrs. j. W.
Campbell of New York and Mrs. J. R.
Woodcock of Nebraska addressed the con-
vention on the character of the offerings
and its purpose.
Mrs. Bishop Hamilton was chosen chair

AT the first evening session Of the thirty
second annual meeting of the woman's
board of missions of the interior addresses
were delivered by Miss Virginia Murdoch,
who recently returned from China, and
Rev john Henry Barrows, president of
Oberlin College.
DIR. Barrows dwelt upon the fact that the
United States is the most potent factor in
the civilization of the orient, and said that
it is simply inevitable that America should
extend its commerce to the ends of the
earth no matter whether the question of
the safety of missionaries enters into con-
sideration. He said the chief cause of the
recent uprising of the Chinese against the
foreigners was SelfishneSs and robbery on
the part of the so-called Christian powers.
We may well rejoice he continued.
that in these later days America means
far more than ever to the world of the
orient. When l was in China an old side
wheel steamer bearing the American flag
was the only memorial and measure of our
national greatness in Chinese waters. At
ter our victory over Spain the mighty Ore
gon and victorious Olympia became the
symbols of American power and today we
are told our flag for the first time is re-
sp"cted along a coast line of > 900 miles, on
which dwells half the human race"

Omission Was According to An Under
standinE With ADMIRAL BarI<er.

So far as can be ascertained, no formal
protest has been lodged with any depart
nlent of the government in this city with
respect to the action of the British cruiser
Psyche in entering and leaving the harbor
of New York Monday without firing the
usual salute Unless some of the federal
municipal authorities at New York call
attention to this alleged slight to the
American flag it is not likely that the
national government will take official cog
nizance of the incident.
In explanation of the action of the Brit
ISL warship it is stated that the custom
ary cOurteSieS in the matter of salute. &c.
were omitted in pursuance of an under
standing between the British authorities
and Rear Admiral Barker, commanding
the New York navy yard. 1t is further
explained that the visit of the Psyche was
unofficial, and was made simply for the
purpose of taking on board Assistant Pay
master Francis H. Roe. late of the Brit
ish ship Hermes, who was apprehended in
New York. for trial in the Bermudas.
