THE House of Representatives has killed the Loud" bill for the alleged reform of postal abuses, by vote of l62 to ll9. This is the third time that the bill has failed, and Mir. Loud says that he will not offer it again. The truth seems to be that the members of the House are satisfied that it is the extortion of the railway, and not the abuse of second class privilege, that causes the deficit in postal revenues. The Postmaster General, in his last re- port, says that the average distance to which. mail matter Is hauled is 44S miles. All express companies haul ex- press in large quantities for 300 miles al one cent Il pound. If ihe government shipped its mail at eXpres, rates, the annual cost would be only about S6,UO0, 900 year instead of the 3O,OOO,OOO new paid.

ROOSEVELT EXPLAINS"
The Language He Used In His Speech
at st. Paul.


NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-Governor
Roosevelt, at Oyster Bay, L. l., to-day
gave out for publication letter which
he had written on August 9 to General
John NJ. Palmer, Of Springfield, H..
relative to- the st. Paul speech made by
the Governor, in which he had been
quoted as making derogatory remarks
concerning Democrats. The letter says
in part,
81 notice that in your recent very
manly interview stating why you could
not support the Populistic-Demo
and the Kansas City platform and
nominees, you allude to statement
was supposed to have made, attacking
Democrats generally In my st. Paul
speech.
You have evidently seen report
which was not merely garbled, but fall
sified. | stand by this speech absolute
ly, and have nothing to explain in con-
nection with it; but I do wish TO point
out where it's meaning was deliberate
ly inverted.
In my speech l began by saying
We appeal not only to Republicans
but to- all good citizens who are Amer
leans in fact as well as in name, to
help us in re-eleeting President Nc
Kinley.'
Il ended by saying: Study the Kan
sas City platform and you cannot help
realizing that their policy (the policy
of it's makers and sponsors) is a pol
icy of infamy; that their triumph
would mean misery so widespread that
it is almost unthinkable and a dis
grace so lasting that more than a gen.
Grafton would have to pass before it
could be wiped out They stand for
lawlessness and disorder; for dishon-
esty and dishonor: for license and dis
aster at home and cowardly shrinking
from duty abroad. We ask of all
Americans who have the welfare Of
the country at heart, no matter what
their political affiliations may have
been in the past
you will see that here l most ex-
plicitely drew the line between the
men who support and ask support for
the Kansas City platform and al 9TH
er citizens, whether Democrats or Re-
publicans | feel that. as a matter of
fact, the greatest possible credit is
due to men like you, my dear sir, and
OF the other Gold Democrats who, four
years ago, stood aud nu-v stand for
national honor
Il hold up the policy advocated in
the Kansas City platform as q base
and cowardly policy to emphasize our
right to appeal to the countless thou
sands Of highminded Democrats who
abhor baseness and cowardice, and are
quick to see and disown them"

A DAY OF FATALITIES.
Five Lives Were Lost mt Pfttsburs
Yesterday.

Yesterday.
PITTSBURG, Pa, August 19.-Four
drownings and one death by burning is
Pittsburg's fatal record for the day.
The dead:
Chris Paffenbach, aged so. fell from a
raft in the Allegheny river and was
drowned.
Edward G. Brillinger, years DID, fell
from raft while fishing in the Allegheny
river was drawn under and drowned be-
fore his father, who was short distance
away, could rescue him.
James Gallagher and Hugh McGady,
boys, were drowned together while swim
ming in the Monongahela. McGrady got
beyond his depth, and Gallagher in at
tempting to rescue him was pulled under
and neither came to the surface again.
Mrs. Mary c. Boyd, wife of the assist
ant superintendent of the New York and
Cleveland Coal Company at Oak Hill,
was burned to death in a peculiar man
ner. She was cleaning a rusty saw and
was using what she thought was elaine
oil as a cleanser. She placed the five-gal-
Ion can on the floor about six feet away
fom the stove and turned around to get
a rag. Immediately there was an explo-
sion. She ran from the house a mass of
flames. and though her husband quickly
wrapped her in a blanket and smothered
the flames she was so badly burned that
she died in agony three hours later. Mr..
Boyd thinks his wife had the gasoline
can instead OF the oil can. which would
account tor the explosion. While the
neighbors wee working over Mrs. Boyd
her house burned 10 the ground.

A NOTABLE EVENT.
| The Pope and Mgr. Ireland Delivered
AddreSseS

ROME, Aug. 19.-To-day being the
feast of st. Joachim, the Pope's patron
saint, there was a large gathering at
the Vatican of Cardinals, Bishops and
Presidents of societies. The Pope, who
was in excellent health and spirits,
spoke at some length regarding mat
ters of Catholic interest, and then,
with a parliamentary introduction,
| invited Archbishop Ireland to address
the assembly on matters in America
and the relations of the outer world to
the Holy See.
Mgr. Ireland, who was frequently ap-
plauded during a speech of twenty
minutes, spoke glowingly of the fidel-
ity of American Catholics to the Ro-
man Church and the Holy See He
described liberty under the American
flag and set forth the necessity of the
Pope, as the head of Christendom, be-
ing free and independent TO any one
civil power, so as to be in fact as
well as of right, the sovereign teacher
and ruler of all nations and peoples.
without special dependency on any
special nation or people
The address gave visible satisfaction.
Mgr. Ireland had final audience of
the Pope on Friday. He viii leave
Rome this evening.

GEORGETOWN, KY, August 19.-
Caleb Powers issued a statement this
evening, as follows:
ITO the Public:
Il am asked my opinion concerning
my trial and the verdict of the jury.
Could l have but one opinion? Can
any fair-minded man or woman OF
this State have but one? That one of
the greatest judicial farces known to
history has been enacted here in my
trial under the forms of law, no well
informed man can doubt. Innocence is
no shield with one hundred thousand
dollars and the methods of Campbell
ism against you. The rectitude OF one S
past life counts for naught. They say
Taylor is guilty because he was at his
Office, and that | am guilty because |
was away from mine. This has been
a political trial throughout for politi-
cal purposes, and no greater mistake
has been made by the Democratic party
since they robbed us of the Offices to
which we were fairly elected by the
people. There are good men and noble
women in the Democratic party and
many of them. They are not all bad,
far from it. A great many of them
do not endorse the theft of the State
offices. A great many Of them do
not endorse this mockery of the State
Offices. A great many more will not
endorse this mockery of a trial, this
prostitution of the courts of justice for
certain ends. From the beginning OF
the campaign until now | have stood
with what little of merit | had, for
the rights and liberties of the people.
That is my crime. That is the only
offense | have committed That is the
only thing proven against me. | swore
to that myself in my testimony.

apology 10 make for being true to the
trust imposed upon me by a majority

London Takes n Glowing View OF
the situation.
LONDON, August 20, a. m.-Rear
Admiral Bruce's report of the continue
ton of the lighting in Picking. puts a
more serious aspect on the Chinese sit
uation than was generally expected
here. Il appears e1ectua.ly 70 dispose
OF all statements that the Empress
Dowager had fed, although circum-
staneial accounts Of her departure con-
tinue 10 come from Shanghai. Despite
defeat the Chinese are apparently re-
solved TO make a desperate struggle,
not only in their ancient capital, bat
also in other parts OF the empire. Chang
Chi Tung. viceroy at Hankow, and
Liu Kun vi. viceroy at Nankin. ac-
cording 10 advices from Shanghai. have
threatened the consuls that If the per-
son of the Empress Dowager is not
respected, they will withdraw from
their present friendly attitude.
Another Shanghai dispatch announc-
es the death of Ii Ping Hong. Cheng
and Chang Lui Lin, in the fighting be-
fore Pekin.
The maRdarins in the southern prov
inces, according to a dispatch to the
Daily Express from Hong Kong have
issued an important proclamation re-
cognizing the capture of Pekin as a
just punishment of reactionary officials
and warning the people not to inter
fere with foreigners, but also pointing
out that the sole object of the pow
ers should be the punishment of the
Boxer and then the restoration of
peace, combining, however, their oper-
ations to the north.
Emperor Nicholas has wired to Gen.
eral Linevitch, commander of the Rus
sian troops in the province of Pc Chi
Ii, congratulating him heartily upon
the rapid capture of Pekin, and be-
slowing upon him the third class or
der of st. George. The Russian en-
peror also thanks Vice Admiral Alex
left and the heroic Siberian troops"
Gen. Grodkoff, Russian commander
of the Amur government, reports to the
Russian war office that Chingan Pass
was captured August 16 after a bloody
battle, in which the Chinese suffered
HEALTHY, losing four or five guns. The
Russian cavalry were in pursuit of the
enemy.
The principal Russian papers, not
ably the Novoe Vremya, commenting
on the victory at Peking, declare that
Russia should go no further in par
ticipating in common armed interver-
ton. but should limit her military
action to the frontier and the Man
churian railroad.

PRISONER IN INNER CITY.
Continued Prom First Page.
THE NEXT STEP.

Now that the primary object for
which the allied armies marched upon
Peking, viz, the rescue of the besieged
legationers, has been accomplished, the
drift of discussion in official and diplo-
matte circles reverts to the next step
to be taken. Necessarily many of the
predictions as to what this will be are
purely conjectural, as it is realized that
complete and definite information re-
garding the condition of affairs in
Picking must be awaited before any
positive action can be taken by the gov
ernments whose interests have suf-
fered as a result of the Chinese trou-
bles
1--WE are on the Threshold of an en-
tirely new condition of affairs; a new
aspect copfronts us, said we'll posted
official of this government tonight.
''The efforts of the several governments
during the past few weeks have been
devoted to the rescue of the legation
ers in Picking. Now that that has been
accomplished the course of the govern
ments whose interests have been af-'
fected is for the present one largely of
conjecture"
The presumption here is that the
next move will be an
Agreement For an Armistice.
This may be undertaken by the COM
manders of the Chinese army and those
of the allies on the spot where the
fighting, according to the latest reports
from Peking appears still to be in
progress. This accomplished, the ques-
ton of the withdrawal OF the foreign
armies, the payment of indemnities and
many other problems may be left to
commissions duly appoalted to adj
judicate them. Ii Hung Chang has
already been appointed plenipoten-
tiary by his government TO negotiate
terms of peace and in this capacity
he made an Intellectual attempt to stop
the progress of the allies in their march
on Pekin. Whether Earl Ii will be
continued in that capacity by the i'm
perial government is not known here,
but such seems altogether probable,
as with his well known ability and ac-
quaintance with the world, he would
be able to make possibly better terms
than any other Chinaman.
There are eleven nations, pointed out
the same official, which have suffered
as a result of the Chinese disturbances.
All will expect
A Settlement of Damages
which have resulted from the Boxer
outbreaks, the murder of missionaries
and the destruction of legation prop
erty. Spain is one of these, and, al
though she has not participated in the
relief expedition, she has suffered alike
with the others and will expect to be
Unidentified for her losses. 1t can be
stated authoritatively that up to this
time there have been no exchanges be-
tween the United States and the other
powers regarding the steps to be taken
in the future to bring China to terms
for the losses that have been incurred.
The sole interest of the United
States up to this time has been the
rescue of the legationers, which is now
an accomplished fact. Informal dis
cussion has taken place between the
President and his cabinet as to what
this government will do to secure
reparation for losses, but the con-
illusions reached are purely tentative

THE SCHEME FAILED.
Desperate and DespicabIe Effort of
Republicans to Defeat the Nomi-
nation of a Popular Democrat.

AT the Second District Senatorial Con-
vention held at Littleton last Saturday
the Republicans made desperate effort
to defeat the nomination of J. d. Nor
gan, of Wetzel county. Mr. Morgan's
strength is recognized and he is feared
by the opposition. For this reason the
Republicans circulated among the dele
gates urging them to nominate somebody
other than Mr.. Morgan and going to the
extreme of Offering a Marshall county
delegate a sum of money to throw three
districts in that county against Morgan,
who was plainly the choice of the con-
yention.
Among the Republicans who circulated
among the delegates was Andrew Clark,
the Republican nominee, who was certain
ly out of place in a Democratic conven-
ton. The delegates are very indignant
about the entire matter, while the Repub-
licans are disappointed over the failure
OF their plans.
Mr.. Morgan is a well-to-do farmer,
largely interested in oil territory and
president of the Smithfeld bank Tra is
one of the most popular men in the en-
tire Senatorial district, and his election
is virtually conceded
