ChappeIle's Speech Sent From PhOn-

Cincinnati, March 17-Archbishop Elder
was unable to be at New orleans to night
to deliver his address at the opening of the
Catholic Winter School in the Crescent
City.
He delivered the address at St. Mary's
Theological Seminary, on Price Hill, in
the western suburbs of this city, in the
presence of the students and others, and it
was transmitted by long distance telephone
to New Orleans.
Archbishop Chappelle was also to have
spoken in New Orleans tonight Before
leaving for the Philippines several months
ago, Archbishop Chappelle delivered his
speech in a photograph. and. as it was
given by the phonograph to the audience in
New Orleans it was transmitted also by
telephone to st. Mary's Seminary in this
city and heard by the same audience that
was addressed by Archbishop Elder. The
transmission from the phonograph by tele-
phone from New Orleans was as distinct
as the human voice.

MORE EASTERN WAR TALK.
Rumors of Imminent Trouble BE-
tween Russia and Japan.

Yolohoma, Feb. %, via Victoria, b. c.,
March 1.-THE persstency with which
the Western press clngs to the immi-
nence of war between Russia and Japan
is attracting much attention here. Thus
far there has seemed to be no foundation
whatsoever for the rumor.
The fact which now impresses the public
is the arrival of representatives. of some
of the prominent New York papers, they
having been sent for the express purpose
OF being on the spot when the outbreak
comes. This, together with the activity
prevailing In the Russian squadron in
Eastern waters, assembling in force as IL
is IN the Korean straits, and the reports
constantly coming in Of extraordinary do
ings at Port Arthur, have at least forced
the conviction that where there Is 50
much smoke there must be some fire, and
the people and press are correspondingly
on the qui vive.
In official circles, however, the utmost
calm Is manifest, while everybody else
is wondering what II all means. In I've
meantime one Of the Chinese papers ac-
tuaDy propounds the theory that Japan
will be likely to take the opportunity far
nished by the approaching naval manoeu-
vers in the Korean straits, 10 strike a
sudden blow at Russia.

London, March 7.-Shamroclz day prom

From Windsor Castle, where the Queen

BY the Queens order the bells In the

Most of the government officials hoist

nc tOIu CnleI justice, LOlH nus eli VI
Killowen, set the example in the law

II is understood the Queen, having ap-

The usual Lord Mayors procession took

The supply of genuine Shamrock was 50

London, March IS, 345 a. m.-Amidst the
festivities of ST. Patrick's day, London
has been listening to-day for the word
that Mafeking is relieved.
1t is remarkable that the revival of this
holiday, which puts St. Patricks hereafter
on equality with Primrose day, has been
the occasion of the first real gala day
since the declaration of war. Christmas

with to-day's merrymakings, and the only

homeward on the hospital ship Maine

There were tweleve officers and 15S non

GEN. wHEELER's RESIGNATION.
A Possible Reason Why the Accept
nnce Hns Been Held Up.

Washington, March 17.-It is evident
that an effort is being made by some of
the administration officials to induce Gen
Wheeler TO withdraw his request for i'm
mediate action on his resignation. 1t is
intimated that this effort is attributable
soley to an interest in the personal well
fare of the General.
In this connection it is recalled that the
President has had it in mind to ask Con-
eress for special legislation empowering
him to retire Gen Wheeler, Gen. Lee, and
another brigadier general of volunteers,
with the rank Of blisadier generals in the
regular army. Some of the persons who
are interested in the success of this move
ment feel that by immed ate resignation
ana the prosecution of his present deter
mnati0n to attempt to secure his seat in
the + ouse of Repre- sentati1 es, Gen. Wheel
er will arouse antagonisms which may
make 1t difficult or impossible thereafter
to secure from the House the legislation
needful to secure his retirement.

to realize, Dear Mr.. Bryan, that the Same
arguments that you apply to the trust
also apply equally well to improved ma

San Juan, Porto Rico, March 17-At a
epecial meeting of the Chamber of Com
merce to-day it was decided to close AL
business houses on Monday afternoon to
enable the merchants to attend an open
cir meeting on the Plaza with the object
Of drawing UP a petition to Gov Gen.
Davis demanding immediate congressional
decision on the tariff one way or the other
kilograms were sent to all towns through
out Porto Rico requesting like demonstra-
tons.
The feeling of uncertainty regarding the
tariff holds business practically at a
slandstll, the merchants being afraid TO
order goods or TO advance funds on the
planters accounts. The meeting to-day was
conducted in a calm and business like
manner.
The merchants here will be satisfied to
accept any decision of Congress, either
free trade, the % or IS per cent. tariff, but
they ask for settlement of the question
so that business activity may be resumed.
They decided to take this unparalleled step
only after mature deliberation.

titiOned Gov Gen. Davis 90 save them
from starvation and TO provide work and
food. The women presented a most pitt
able sight. They were baTefooted and
ragged, half naked, and wearied from their
journey. Some of them were lame all
We're discouraged.
The petition which they presented to the
governor general tells the story of the
depressing times, no work and the price
of rice, beans and bread beyond reach,
fruits destroyed and the relief supply dis
continued, bringing them and others where
they came from, almost to starvation.
Gen. Davis promised relief to the party
and requested the Mayor to provide trans
portation. His reply was that there was
not a peso in the treasury, and that the
police were yet unpaid for their last two
months work.
The party of women dispersed quietly,
some retraeing their steps afOOt others
begging easier conveyance TO Naranjito,
which is twenty miles from San Juan, a
portion of the road being almost impas-
ca bic. Similar parties are expected from
other towns.

GREAT RECORDS or MAUD 8.
Futile Efforts of RivnIs to Lower
Her Trottim@ Time.

Cincinnati, March 7.-Capt. George n.
stone of Cincinnati, was the purchaser
OF Maud s.. when she was 2-year-old
owned by Mr.. Bugher of Glendale, 0.
The price was nominal. it was at Lex
ireton KY. where she won her first
honors as q 4-year-old. by trotting a mile
in 2l724 Her next record breaker was
at Chicago. when she made 1t in 2:12lk.
As a 5-year-old she still further reduced
this to 2.11%, 210A, and at Buffalo to
2:10iz
Then began efforts by others to beat
her record. Finally at Nara gausett bay
j. J. C. made the then startling record Of
2:0994, and deposed Maud S. from her posi-
ton as queen of the turf. But the reign
of her rival was short Twenty-four
hours after j. /. c. made his record of
2.09A, Maud s., at Cleveland, made her
record of 2;0S%, and regained her lost
title. After she passed into MIR. Bon
ner's hends she sull further lowered her
record, but was later ecipsed by records
made possible by pneumatic tires and
other devices for increasing speed.
