Galveston, Sept. 1O.-The barracks
in which the regular soldiers were sta

all but fifteen Of the full company are
dead.
Among the vessels known to be
ashore are: Kenday, Castle, Taun-

Every window in the building was
broken and one wall caved in.
Hundreds are seeking relatives or
friends or a place of refuge. 5s
The most serious problem Is lack OF
fresh water, the Waterworks being in
ruins. Only eight persons escaped
from ST, Mary's infrmary where there
were a hundred patients and attend

Governor Roosevelt, according to the
plans that have been made by the
state central committee, will arrive in
the city Saturday afternoon at about.
4 O'Clock. The Northern Pacific will
run special train from Fargo for the
distinguished New Yorker and North
Dakotan, and this will enable the gov
ernor to make brief addresses from the
car at Jamestown and Valley City, the
principal towns between Fargo and
Bismarck. It is expected that the
train will reach Bismarck at about 4
O'Clock in the afternoon and the gov
ernor while here will be entertained by
the local committee. tits the present
plan to have an early evening meeting
at which the governor will speak, fin
ishing in time to take the night train
for the west.
Governor Roosevelt will be one of
the most distinguished men who has
spoken in ! the city for years and an
especial effort should be made to give
him fitting reception. Citizens and
business men should unite in the effort
to make the governors stay in the city
pleasant. Business places and resi-
dences should be decorated, and while
the committee will see to many of the
arrangements, citizens of the city can
| assist materially and should do so.

the city Saturday will be the memor-
able one of the campaign Residents
of the western part of the state and
of the surrounding country will be
here, and the rally will be the feature
of the campaign: - Il.
Governor Roosevelt is an eastern
man, but his tastes and synpathies
paTtake largely of western favor. He
is earnest, energetic and man among
men. His addresses are logical, sens
| lble and such as appeal to reason and
common sense. The governor should
receive here such welcome as Bis
marck can give when she sets out to
do it.

CONDITIOTs GOOD.
WEEKLY TRADE REPORT OF
HENRY CLEWs . SAYS CoNDI-

HENRY CLEWs5 SAYS GoNDI-
@TIoNs ARE FAVORABLE.
New York, Sept. 10. 0.-Henry Clews
weekly trade report says: Nj
Home conditions are generally fav-
orable. a good harvest is practically
assured, and farmers are making good
profits; better in fact on the average
than for many years. This is true Of
cotton as we'll as fof wheat, corn and
many other agricultural products A
striking fact is that while there are
fewer "booms' in progress than a year
ago, and some lines of business are
making very moderate profits COM
pared with 1899, yet prosperity is
more evenly distributed and all classes
are receiving a more equitable share
than then. It is many years since the
country has witnessed so little discon-
tent; this is demonstrated by the
apathy regarding the anti trust issue,
which in times of depression would
prove an inexhaustible source of cam
paign rhetoric. Today it is almost
a lost issue; much to the satisfaction
of the large holders of the industrials.
Good harvests mean a good demand
for all sorts of merchandise this COM
ing fall and winter; this in turn means
a good west bound traffic for the rail-
roads and continued employment for
our mills and furnaces. Now that
iron products are coming down to
more reasonable figures, enterprises
which have been checked by high
prices are being pushed forward, con-
idence is again reviVing, and, as the
process Of adjustment to the new
level becomes more complete, the
country is girding together for fresh
step forward. Happily the old hind
rance to industrial growth, oVer-pro-
dnction is a lessened menace now that
foreign markets are becoming eager
purchasers of American manufactures
were lL not for this outlet our energy
in developing American resources
would quickly bring the present era of
prosperity to aclose, and we should be
Instantly precpitated into another an
other period Of over production with all
it's evil consequences No such con-
tingency is now in sight; and there is
every likelihood that in future the for
eign demand will play an important
part in preventing industrial distress
ae home. The importance of preserv-
ing these outlets should therefore not
be overlooked even from Wall street
stand dpoint. The latest evidences of
our international development are the
large foreign demand for American
coal and the reports that Sweden has
been seeking to place a loan In this
market. Z

sway in the two largest cities in the

Mr.. Beerbohm Tree was the D'Artag-

James oNein in the role of the fiery
Gascon. To both stars belong the main
credit for the wonderful success Of the
play In their respective countries, At

must not be underestimated, as out OF
half dozen contemporaneous versions
his was the one that was considered the
best vehicle OF them all. It introduced
That which the other adaptations
lacked, namely several highly attrac-
