SIR CHARLES AND THE RED COAT

Sir Charles Warren was in command of the troops at Singapore from 1890 to 1895, and at one time during that period was actually not on speaking terms with the governor of the colony. And if ever there was a storm in a teapot
 this was one. All the trouble arose re- garding the question whether the gov ernors aide-de-camp should wear a red coat or a white one at government house garden parties. Sir Charles Warren, as general in command. had issued an order that all the officers of the garrison were to appear in the white uniforms which are usually worn in the tropics, but the governors aid de-camp, military captain, persisted in appearing in a red ccat. This was too much for Sir Charles, and an angry correspondence took place between the governor and himself as to whether the A. D. C. was a part of the garrison or not. The governor, of course, contend ed that he was not, and that. as the general had no power to order the A. D. C. to any military duty. he could not order him to wear any particular clothes. And the governor and the general. the two highest functionaries in the colony, were not on speaking terms. Finally. as neither would give way, the question was, I believe, re-

According to recent report of the treasury department printed in The

According to a recent report of the
 Republican yesterday A MONTH morning, May was the

 TRADE. banner year in the
 manufacturing trade of the United States. A comparison of the business of May with the corresponding month of the last year of the Cleveland administration shows an increase of s1sOOo,O0O in the exports of manufac- tursd articles. Within the same period the imports of manufacturers ma terials have doubled or have increased by almost 13.OOO, 900. These increases it should be borne in mind are for single month. showing that the busi- ness of the country in the manufac- turing line alone is twice as heavy as it was in the best year of the last dem ocratic administration. Those figures explain why the mills and factories of the United States started up in such feverish haste as soon as possible af- ter the elecion of Mckinley, and why they have been running so ceaselessly sine.
 In view of the accomplishment of four years we are led to wonder how similar report from the treasury bureau of say May. 1904. in the event that should be the last year of MT Bryans' term as pr sidcnt of the United States. would compare with it. The speculation is profitless, for it hangs upon such an improbable event. but at the same time it is not an un- interesting speculation.

In the early days of the Bryan campaign, which began the day following the de- feat of Bryan four years ago, a large and conservative element of the party undertook to put him aside. The re- volt against Bryan broke out from time to time. but each time it was weaker. Having come to accept Bryan as the candidate, the conservatives be- gan trying to make terms about the platform; to eliminate the obnoxious free coinage idea. After a long period of temporizing. Mir.

Engineer Made No Attempt to Save
His Life.

of the accident is not known, but it is
supposed a broken rail or tire COM

the fireman, were injured. The extent
of their injuries could not be learned
although it is said they are quite SER

to No. IA, an express train, and its fate
was even worse than that Of the rear
engine which was wrecked at Ontario.
Eye witnesses of the wreck in this
city say that Diday made no attempt
10 escape from the wreck. Some go so
far as to state that is was case of
suicide. He stood at his post, with one
hand ON the throttle, never moving
