GERMANY'S FOREIGN TRADE.
Daily Increasing Power In Central

United States Consul. Monaghan. at
ChemnitZ, Germany, has furnished the
State Department with some interesting
facts In regard to the efforts that Germany
is making to build up an extensive trade
in foreign countries, and especially In the
Central American republics of Guatemala
Nicaragua and Costa Rica.
Her power in these republics" the con-
sui states, ''is increasing from day to day.
Her superhuous population, which seeks to
emigrate, is guided and helped to locate In
Central America. In the three countries
named 100 German commercial houses
large and small, with a capital amounting
Not only the greater part Of the German
Central American trade Is done through
these houses. but also part of the English
and California trade. :,
There are besides five; well-established
German banking houses in these countries
Money to the amount of $16.0OOOO0 Is in
circulation in industrial enterprises The
scene of the greatest activity is Guatemala
where $40, 100000 is invested in agricultural
and other undertakings
The value of Central American land in
German hands the consul places at SIS, 0SS,-

Nicaragua and Costa Rica he estimates at

each are invested in Salvador and Hon
duras. The total value of German invest

regarded as of the highest Importance 1t
not only confirms the belief of the des-
perate condition of affairs at the Chinese
capital. but is thought to explain why it
was necessary to seize the Taku forts. II
the commanders of the combined fleet be-
low the forts learned of the expeditions re-
turn to Tien Tsin. that city being in posses
sion of mobs. 1t must have been necessary
to send re-enforcements and provisions up
the river promptly. no matter If the sun
had set. The, Chinese regulations permit
nothing to pass the forts at night under any
circumstances. For the same reasons the
gates of Pekin are closed inexorably at sun
set and not reopened until sunrise.
Dispatches say the forts fired three-quar-
ters of an hour after midnight. which bears
out the suggestion that the gunboats were
sent up the river with food supplies from
the fleet outside, and were fired upon for
violating the regulations. With the forts
as bases the powers are to be expected to
form large force as speedily as possible
to begin a determined relief expedition Of
sufficient force to open the railway.

NOTED MEN ON THE STAGE


Special From a Staff Correspondent.
PHILADELPHIA. Pa. June Ex-senator
Hanna seemed annoyed this morning by
the difficulties encountered in forming a
combination on Long as a candidate to op-
pose Roosevelt. He intmated that there
was not the candid sincerity on the part
of some of the supporters of the Massa-
chusetts man that he had reason to ex-
pect, and that a Roosevelt sentiment in
fiuenced some of the men in the Long
camp. He had idea that the New York
contingent WIS ready to drop Roosevelt as
soon as they could decide upon some other
candidate when they cou.d nominate as
their own choice in antasonisln to what the
administration might prefer. For this rea-
SON he expressed annoyance at the diff
Guilty in organizing speedily the forces op-
posed to Roosevelt'S nomination. He said
that if a more aggressive course was not
followed by the supporters Of Long. he
would take Il hand il the matter himself.
at II o'clock today" he said Il cease TO
be chairman of the national committee. by
reason of the expiration of the term of the
old committee when the convention meets
l shall then be free to express my personal
preference. and if the situation has not
cleared up by that time l may announce
my personal preference. not as representing
the administration or as national chairman,
but Mr. Hanna of Ohio. We shall then
be able to who has the longest pole
pole l say not puI.'
In some quarters it is expected that If
Long does not show real strength. Hanna
will he inclined to turn to Fairbanks or
to Scott of California.
Eannm and PIntt Confer.
Senator Hanna had a conf renee with
Senator Piatt before the convention assem-
bled. There was Il plain talk between them
en- the vice presidential situation until
nearly time fer them to go to the conven-
ton hall. and it was then arranged that
the conference should be resumed at 3
O'Clock this afternoon. New York men say
that the result will probably be that Hanna
will yield to the popular demand fer Roose-
welt. Mr.. Hanna's cunfidants do net at
this time. however, admit Of the possibility
of such thing.
The statement is made this afternoon by
close friend of NJ: Hanna that Governor
Roosevelt declared to Mr. Henry c. Payne
today in most emphatic terms that he would
not accept the vice presidential nomination.
1t said that MIR. Payne went to the
governor and told him that 1t was the in
tention of the Wisconsin delegation to vote
for him If he would accept the nomination,
and that Mr.. Roosevelt replied with en-
phass that he would never accept.
When Lieutenant Governor Woodruff was
told of this statement he said that he was
with Roosevelt nearly all last night. and
that no matter what reports We're cIrcu-
lated Roosevelt was going to be nominated
and would accept.
