Santo Domingo, May 19.-PassengerS
arriving here On board the Spanish Eeam-
er Maria Herrera brought news OF the
grounding of the Cunard Line steamer
Carinthia at Point Gravois, on the south

for assistance for the purpose of taking
off animals on board but the Maria Her

Carinthia had run ashore at full speed.
She had on board 1850 mules destined, it
is believed. for South Africa.
The Carinthia cleared at New Orleans

ACCEPT NEW CONDITIONS.
Chinese Viceroys willing to Accept the
situation and Lend Their
Aid for Peace.

Washington, Aug. 25.-The first as
surances reached here yesterday that
the powerful Chinese viceroys were
disposed to accept the new condition
in China, and would assist in tho
maintenance of peace. The informa-
tion came in dispatch through dip
lomatic channels, and stated that one
of the foreign officers had received a
telegram from two of the most pow
erful central viceroys stating that
they intended to give their best eff
forts to maintain quiet throughout
the central portions of China.
As this assurance came subsequent
to the capture of Pekin, it is regarded
as favorable sign of disposition of
the yiceroys, whose authority in the
interior is very great. Their course
has been watched with much concern
by officials, for, since Pekin is in n
chaotic condition the most influential
authority in the empire is that of the
viceroys.

San Francisco, Aug 25.-The Bulle

Seattle, Wash, Aug. "a:
A terrific storm ragged at Nome
August 7. 1t wrought disaster along
the water front, and as a result the
beach is lined with wreekage and
stranded vessels of all descriptions.
According to a waterfront man
out of 6S steam launches only five re-
manned afoat, and of ~ barges, but
seven are riding the sea, the Others
having either sunk or drifted ashore.
Twenty dead bodies were washed
ashore and taken to the morgue fol
Identification. Among them was the
remains of j. w. Beatty, of Alameda
Cal, who formerly worked for Shrevt

Five dead bodies were washed
ashore at Topkuk, three miles north
of Nome, the mouth of Nome river,
and eight in front of Nome camp;
three, 12 miles below Bluff City and
two below Topkuk.

A tale of disease, death and suffer,
ing among the Eskimos in the north
which beggars description, is told by
Guy n. Stockslager, who has been di
reeting a relief expedition sent out
by the government. Stockslager has
returned from York, and reports the
natives dying by wholesale, dozens OF
dead bodies lying around unburied.
At Teller City the sick natives killed
the medicine man of the tribe in the
vain hope that the act would appeass
the evil spirit who was sending such
dire affiiction on the people. ThirteeE
deaths were reported at Teller City
in one day.
The military officials made two inn

an order directing all squatters or

a good many people do not under
stand the fiat rate" phase of news
paper lunacy.
The JOURNAL will illustrate.
Suppose one goes to the Cleaner and
asks price of - dodgers. certain size.
The Cleaner answers "$l.25."
That is . cents each ?" asks the APP
plicant.
Yes
"Well. after all, | don't want %
gimme one for ! cents"
And, sticking to the FLAT rate" fad,
the GLeaner would have to set up 81 %
job for cents.
And, still sticking 10 the "Aat-rate"
hobby, the Gle0ner would have to
charge $3.50 for 80, IS for l00 $40 for
POO, and so on until the buyer could
see that the more he bought the more
he was stuck
The JOURNALS plan encourages the
customer to take more bills and more
space alike by steadily reducing the
cost of the additions. That is, it sells
POO bills for less pro rata than 100, and
> inches space for less pro rata than /.
Then the element of time comes in
and it sells publications for less pro
rata than |.
In other words, it distinctly favors
its permanent customers, as compared
with its transient trade the Cleaner
favors the latter by practically doing
its Typography for nothing, and dis
eourages the former by compare
lively doing nothing at exorbtant
rates.
The fiat rate" may work well in
cities where the transient trade is large
and competition aggressive, but in
the country where lO-cent advertise
ments are few and far between, only
unripe experience or matured lunacy
will adopt it.
