Gold Reserve Was Not Re-
pienished ss Expected.

London, Nov. 16.-Lombard street as
serts that American capitalists will not
be given the chance of capturing En-
glands big new war loan. The charge
Is made that Sir Michael Hicks Beach,
her majesty's chancellor Of the ex-
chequer. bought gold brick when he
permitted a Yankee syndicate to walk
Off with half of the last loan.
London bankers avow that he may be
trusted not to repeat the performance.
Thomas Aiken, manager of the Bank of
Scotland, speaking Of the Forthcoming
loan, said to your correspondent today:
''The sale Of f5,0Oo.0OO (s24. .44O, ,OOO)
worth of the late exchequer bonds To
American houses was made with the
ostensible purpose Of replenishing the
home gold reserve; otherwise the full
amount of the loan could have been
easily placed in London. Immediately
after Its issue, however. the bonds went
to a premium, and simultaneously. to
our surprise and the -chancellor's dis.
appointment, the Americans resold
their purchases, with the result that
the money had to be provided here after
all.
"As a replenisher, the deal fell fiat.
Not more than R500.0OO ($2.440 OOO) con-
stituting a bare 10 per cent of the in
stallment the Americans paid on the
allotment of bonds. represents their
contribution to our diminished gold
chest. I doubt II their overtures for
the new loan will be greeted In the same
rapturous manner"

Hundred Children In a
Lima Public School.

Lima, Nov. 16.-Yesterday, just before
recess was to be taken for the noon
hour, the 800 scholars attending the
Garfield building were thrown into a
panic by a terrific explosion which
shook the building and filed the rooms
with dust. They rushed from their
rooms screaming, but fortunately no
one was injured.
The explosion was caused by an ac-
'cumulation of natural gas in one of the
FIVE. heating furnaces. The gas was
ignted by the pilot light when the
doors. were opened by the janitor and
the gas was drawn out and ignited
from the light. The janitor waS knock

Chinese-Japanese papers, as received
to-day by the steamer Empress OF
Japan. thirteen days from Yokoha-
ma. indicate that Russia is unmis-
takably revealing her intentions III

ING advantage OF England's pressing
engagements in South Africa, the
Russian government, through its
consul at Hankow. has revived its
claim to the Jardine-M atheson land,
making a demand for the property
in the most peremptory fashion. The
Russian consul claims that the ques-

announced his intention to take for
chile possession OF the property with

Washington. Jan. 12.-When the
currency bill shall have passed the
senate, the committee on relations

American methods.
1t 1t evidently the prevailing senti-
meDt among the members of this
committee that the annexation of
Cuba will ultimately result. and per
haps at no distant day. In the mean
time the Cubans will have that indie
pendence promised them in the reso-
buttons OF congress which brough on
the war with Spain.
According to one member OF the
committee, annexation will be
brought about by perfectly natural
process of transition 1t is with
this in view and with the object OF
finding ways and means TO accom-
plish this transition that the senate

ney General Grow was directed 10y the

pute consists of about $4,000 acres
of land, valued at about 100000,
and the residents pay no taxes. Atch-
