New York, August Ex-Governor Roose- welt, at Oyster Bay, R. l., today gave out for publication letter which he had writ ten on August 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:
 "I notice that in your recent very manly interview stating why you could not sup port the Populistic Democracy and the Kansas City platform and nominees, you allude to a statement I was supposed to have made, attacking Democrats generally in my St. Paul speech
 You have evidently seen a report which was not merely garbled, but falsifed. I stand by this speech absolutely, and have nothing to explain in connection with 1t, but I do wish to point out where its mean ing was deliberately inverted.
 "In my speech I began by saying:
 We appeal not only to Republicans, but to all good citizens who are Americans, in fact as we'll as in name, to help us in re-electing President Mckinley I ended by saying:
 Study the Kansas City platform and you cannot help realizing that their policy

Defense Concluded Yesterday Says
 Gano's Plan Failed

Pretoria, August 19-The case for the defense In the trial of Liutenant Cordua of the Staats artillery, charged with being concerned in the plot to 1idnap Lord Rop- erts, was concluded today. Lieutenant Cordua admits that the accused was guilty of breaking his parole and of attempting to plan a conspiracy, but he asserted that that the attempt was failure Counsel also maintained that Gano suggested the entire plot and egged on the prisoner. On these grounds he asked the court to find that the charges had not been proved and begged its mercy for his client.
 Gano, who is said to be of American birth, denied having suggested the plot.

that made so much trouble Is not repre- sentative of New York. The mobs were composed of hoodlums, roughs and toughs of every kind"
 MT. Cuyler closed by saying he did not wish to stir his congregation up over the matter, as there had been trouble enough, saying:
 "We cannot fight We are not strong enough If we attempted it there, would only be a period of murdering that would accomplish nothing. But we are citizensS even though we are black, and there should be some redress in the courts for all wS have suffered. The city should be respons sible for the brutality which has been practiced pon innocent people, I advise that some of our most responsible people people get together and find out if some- thing cannot be accomplished in that dt- recton' ax

May be an Agreement for an
 Armistice.
COMMISSIONERS MAY BE NAMED
Will Settle the Question of Indemnities and the Many Other Problems Which Will Necessarily Arise
 All Nations Injured

Washington, August 19.-Now that the primary object for which the allied arm- ies marched upon Pekin, viz, the rescue of the besieged Legatoners, has been &C., complished, discussion in official and diplo- matic circles reverts to the next step to be taken. Necessarily many of the predic- tions as to what this will be are purely conjectural it is realized that complete and definite information regarding the sit- uation of affairs in Pekin must be await ed before any positive action can be taken by the government whose interests have suffered as a result of the Chinese trou- bles.
 The presumption here is that the next move made will be an agreement for an armistice This may be undertaken by the commanders of the Chinese army and those of the allies on the spot where the fighting, according to the latest reports from Pekin, appears still to be in pro- gress. This accomplished, the question of the withdrawal of the foreign armies. tho payment of indemnities and many other problems may be left to commissions duly appropriated to adjudicate them
 Ii Hung Chang has already been appoint- ed plenipotentiary by his Government to negotiate terms of peace and in this capao- ity he made an intellectual attempt to stop the progress of the allies in their march to Pekin. Whether Earl Ii will be continued ir that capacity by the Imperial Govern- ment is not known here, but such seems altogether probable, with his well-known ability and his acquaintance with the world he would be able to make possibly better terms than any other Chinaman.
 The eleven nations which have suffered as result of the Chinese disturbances vii expect a settlement of the damages which have resulted from the Boxers out break the murder of missionaries and the destruction of Legation property. Spain is one of these, and although she has not participated in the relief expedition, she nas suffered with the others and will be expected to be indemnif1ed for her loss. Up to this time there have been no ex- changes between the United States and the other powers regaroing 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 discussion has taken place between the President and his cabinet as to what this Government will do to secure reparation for losses, but the conclusions reached are purely tentative.

New York, August 19.-The Rev. P. L. Cuyler, pastor of Zion Methodist Episco- pal Church, in his sermon today, spoke about last weeks race riots in this city He said, in parts
 "The trouble that our people have just gone through presents a disgusting and brutal spectacle. In the troubles that we have in the South, even, there is nothing to equal it. There, at least the men who are in authority and whose duty it is to protect the citizens of the State, do not participate in the riots, but rather seek to shield from the fury of the mob the inno- cent victims. Instead of suppressing the rioting the guardians of the peace appear to have participated in the cruelty. The police clubbed the colored men, and the greatest damage done upon the persons of our people was the work of their clubs.

Georgetown, August 19.-Caleb Powers is sued statement this evening as follows: 'To the Public:
 "I am asked my. opinion concerning my trial and the verdict of the jury. Could I 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 Inno- cence is no shield with s10O,000 and the methods of Campbellism 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 I am guilty because was away from mine
 '"This has been political trial through out for political purposes, and no greater mistake has been made by the Democratic party since they robbed us of office to which we had been elected by the people.

Georgetown, Ky, August 19.-The case of Henry Youtsey will be called tomorrow, but as the defendant has not fully recov- cred, it is not certain whether the case will go to trial. As much if not more difficulty is expected in securing jury than in the Powers case, as nearly everybody in the county became disqualified by hearing evil dence in the Powers trial It is probable that Judge Cantrill will summon a venire from the adjoining counties.
