dent Saldvar of Salvador, who recently

United States" said he. eve want the
canal because 1t would be of vast benefit
to all Central America, giving work to
thousands and ending internal troubles
by keeping everybody busy. But we want
it mainly because Salvador has no ports
on the Atlantic. With a canal opened our
goods would be loaded at our Pacific
ports and then, going through the canal,
would have the Atlantic markets before
them. We Use American machinery, tools

them even now at better rates than those
offered by European manufacturing cen.
tiers. With the canal open, this class OF
American goods could be delivered In
Salvador and all along the Pacific coast
Of South and Central America with far
greater ease and at better rates than at
present. As between different routes we
naturally prefer the one nearest to us,
which is the Nicaragua route"

BERLIN, June 12.--From high off
cial of the foreign Office the following
statement is received respecting Germa-
ny's attitude in the far east: Germany
adheres to her idea Of joint action by the
powers in China. Thus far the powers
have been acting together tremendously,
and there is no indication that any pow
er means to take separate advantage.
The German foreign office has received no
official proof nor any evidence tending to
show that the empress dowager is max
ing common cause with the Boxers. In
deed Baron Won Ketteler, German minis.
ter in Picking, not long ago forwarded a
copy of an imperial decree against the
Boxers. 1t is another question, of course
whether the empress uses adequate means
for suppressng the revolt and also wheth-
er within her immediate encourage anti
European influences are at work. The in
structions that have been sent to the
chief of the German squadron, Admiral
Won Bendemann, are comprehensive
enough to meet the requirements of the
case. If necessary third marine battal-
ion will be dispatched from kiaochou to
Picking, but no more ships"

South Of Kroonstadt there is a wide
gap. The railway is only partially de.

hurried all the available troops north

danger Of second raid. The loss of the

NEW YORK, June l0.--An intimate
political friend Of Governor Roossvell
who is thoroughly copversant with the
inner councils OF the party leaders both
at Washington end In New York volun.
teers the following statement as to the
meaning Of Senator Platt's reference to
the governor as a possible vice presiden-
tial candidate despite his repeated and
emphatic refusal to accept the nomi-
nationi
ut IL true that Senator Plat Is urging
the vice presidential nomination upon
Roosevelt, but he has not shaken and
will not be able to shake the governors
announced determination. The real In.
fuences behind this movement are the
big corporations, which are convinced
that they cannot defeat the governor e.
ther at tho Republican state convention
or at the polls next autumn. They Gre
incensed at the enactment Of the fran
chise tax law year ago and ere anx-
ious to secure Its Modification Or repeal
by getting Its chief instigator, Governor
Roosevelt, out Of power In New York
state. 1t Is curiods that Senator Plat
cannot see that were the corporations to
succeed in shelving Roosevelt and should
he aid them in 80 doing the result would
be to impsril New York this fall for the
national as well as for the state Ticket.
But President Mckinley and his advisers
understand this perfectly, and there will
be no Roosevelt movement ut Philadel-

COLUMBUS, o., June 1.-THE Dem.
ocratic state convention which began here
today follows the reception to Admiral
Dewey OF last week. II was at one time
proposed to have Admiral Dewey here
during the convention, or, rather, to hold
the convention last week while he was
here, but some of the subscribers to the
Dewey celebration fund objected. and the
plan was abandoned. The Dewey decora.
tons, exterior and interior however, still
remain all over the city. The hotels have
large portraits of Dewey displayed and
none of the Democratic heroes except
Bryan. The Democratic hustlers point
10 the portraits of the hero of Manila as
the man for the second place on the ma
tional ticket, aud there Is much talk
about Bryan and Dewey being nominal
ed All who are agitating Bryan and
Dewey as the ticket think there is nc

of the police commissioners. Up to this
hour 1t has not been deemed necessary by
the police commissioners of st. Louis to
order out the militia, the commissioners
yet believing that they are equal to the
