Heard Nothing From Him Since

New Egita, containing all the archives
OF the Malolos government, Agulnaldos
correspondence up 10 the time OF his

The belief is growing that Aguinaldo

no proof that he has been alive since
Major Peyton C, Marah, Of the Thirty

ter the Filipino leader in the Benquet
mountains, although an insurgent ofli-
Ger who recently surrendered to General
Young, says that the insurgent general
Tinlo holds this belief. T1hio he!d
regular communication with AguinaIdo
until December Is, since when he has
heard nothing from him, and Tinior
thinks AguinaIdo would find means to
communicate with him II he were alive.
Major March's Information was that
there was only half dozen soldiers
with Aglinaldo when he fed beyond the
Bentoc wilderness. where the savaGes
are hostile TO all strangers. Friends OF
Agulnaldo's wife assert that she has
heard nothing from him since they
parted,
His Wife in Delicate Condition.
She is in a delicate condition, and

Conversations With Youtssy.
FRANKFORT, KY, May 2,-W. H.
Culton, the clerk of Auditor Of State
Sweeney, who is under Indictment as
an accessory to the murder of William
Goebel, went on the witness stand in his

culton's testimony followed after the
motions for bail In the cases Of Pow
crs, Davis, Youtsey, Whitaker and
Coon,bs had been overruled They. Of

motions for ball. Judge Cantril held

them To Georgetown for trial on a
change OF venue.
Never COnspired With Any One.
.Culton said he had never conspired
with any of the defendants or any one
else to kill Goebel He did not know
Golden, and had known Whitaker only
since the assassination. Culton said
w. X. johnson wanted to borrow his
(Culton's) pistol
Henry Youtsey told me that Goebel
would be killed. told him that II must
not be done / told Governor Bradley
what Youtsey said, and Bradley said:
My God, this must not be done Yout-
sey asterward said there was nothing
In It."
Henry Youtsey, after the examina-
tion, asked me where ! was on the day
Of the murder. / told him that ! was
IN In the house lobby. Youtsey asked
me how II would do for him 10 say he
was there with me. told Youtsey
was afraid he was going to get into
trouble, also that Grant Roberts wanted
to see him. Roberts had missed his RI
file, and told me that he believed Yout-
sey had 1t. l told him he had better
sec Roberts"
Youtsey Had Great Scheme.
The witness told of another conversa-
tlon with Youtsey, who came with Bur-
ton, OF Breckenridge county. "Youtsey
said he had the greatest scheme yet;
| that Goebel could be shot from the sec
retary OF states office, and nobody
would ever know who did It,"
Witness denied that he had q canver-
sation with Miss sallie Jackson, in
which he made statements danIning to
himself AT n meeting in Powers Of
fice presided. and the question OF pro-
vlding boarding places for contest wit

pulled out a handful OF cartridges, and
said:

proper place would soon settle this ac-
count
"caIeb Powers said that II any such
talk as that was to be INDUCED tn he
would leave the meeting"

mand for iron and steel sheets has re-
suited in higher quotations to-day, the
price advancing from 50 20 to 50 30 n
hundred pounds. In some cases sales
arc even 10 cents higher Owing to the
slack demand for standard foundry
iron, quotations have dropped from an

Dewey viii Be Gland Lubber" for
a Few Days-The Admiral Much IN
Love with His German Friends.

Love with His German Friends.
CHICAGO, May 2.-The Chicago cele-
bratlon In honor of Admiral George
Dewey practically came to close to-
day with an excursion by the admiral
and members Of the general committee
of the Dewey celebration, down the
Chicago drainage canal as far as the
controlling gates at LockDort.
Although Admiral Dewey has not dis
cussed politics or international relations
on this trip. personal estimate that he
gave Of the Germans or rather of the
German individuality, is interesting In
view OF the relations between the ad-
miral and the German admiral who was
in Manila bay after the battle two
years ago. without in any way refer
ring to any incidents in Manila bay,
Admiral Dewey said emphatIcally:
II Ike the German; he's a good fel-
low"
Young Dewey was "Watched."
A unique Incident occurred at the sta
ton before the train left in the mora
ing. An alleged piclspocket tried to get
the watch OF W. A. Alexander chair
man of the army and navy entertain
mant committee. Mr. Alexander grab
bed the man, saved his own watch and
unconsciously snatched from the mans
hand another watch that the police say
he had picked from some pocket such q
short time previous that he had not
had time to put 1t away before he tried
to get Mr.. Alexander's watch. A de-
tectlve Immediately arrested the sup
posed plckpocket and us no owner
could be found for the watch, Mr.. Alex
ander had secured, he presented 1t with
an elaborate speech to George Dewey,
jr., who said he would take 1t until the
owner could be found.
The visit of Admiral and Mrs. Dewey
to Chicago will end at 8 o'clock to-mor-
row morning, when they will take the
special Baltimore & Ohio train on
which they came from Washington, un-
der the care of ]. H. Maddy, Of the Bal
tImore G. Ohio, and leave over the Chi
cago & Alton for st. Louis, stopping at
Jacksonville and other towns along the
way.

A I5.Cent Rate May Be Made on Grain for
Export
BETWEEN KANSAS CITY AND GULF PORTS

sorts Heavier Than Usuai-issue
of bonds Authorised.

Besides moving the Texas grain crop to
the gulf por.s fer export. the railroads
ara also called upon TO transport the
wheat and corn OF the West and North
west to the gulf. Millions OF bushels oil
grain which few years ago could oEiy
be moved through the Atlantic ports Is
now finding It's way to Europe through
New Orleans and Galveston. At the Texas
seaport this export trade has developed
faster than the facilities for handling it.
1t is intimated that on August / rate
of is cents on both wheat and corn Will
be put in effect from Kansas City to glii
ports. The present tariff is 1874 cents on
wheat and 16h cents on corn. During
the open season on the lakes this RITE
prevents grain moving through the gull
ports.
No Western grain is now moving to me
gulf because the Southern ports are
blocked. Grain and grain products going
East are taking the same rates as APP
piled last month. based on about 8 cents
between the rivers. Many contracts were
in existence when the instructions to re-
store grain rates in Western territory
to tariff were received. and these coa-
tracts have been sufficiently padded &c
cover practically everything that is TO
move in July. SO that none of the ship
pers are likely to suffer on this month $
business.
The shortage OF tonnage space bea1use
of the withdrawal by the British govern ;
ment for South African service OF many
vessels usually employed in the soan
carrying trade Is being severely felt at
Eastern as well as Southern ports. ard
should the situation in China continue
to grow grayer it is not improbable tina.
