WASHINGTON, d. c.. June S.-of
the $4,000 100000 worth Of commerce
done by all nations Of the world, Eng
lands share is 1873 per cent; Germanys
1913 per cent, and 81 per cent falls to
the lot of the United States. So the
United States Consul Winter, at An
naberg, in n report to the state depart
ment, comparing the relative positions
of the three leading countries in the
trade markets OF the globe.
Germany" he says, "has built up
her foreign commerce at England's ex-
pense; and the United States, Just en-
tering the field, is building up a great
foreign trade at the expense of both
England and Germany. In Australia,
in Africa, in South America and in Chi
ma the commercial representatives Of
each nation are fencing for vantage
ground upon which to build safe mar
kets for home industries"
German Goods are Cheaper.
Germany's success In competing in
the field Of commerce with her mIght'er
rival, England, Consul Winter attrlb-
utes to several conditions. In the first
place, he says. German manufactured
goods are cheaper and in some cases
better. Then, too, German merchants
adapt themselves entirely to the wants
of their customers and industrial COM
missions have been sent out to South
America, South Africa. Mexico, Japan,
China, etc, to study and report upon
the conditions and needs of the people
OF those countries. Again, German
travelling men are superior in the tech
nlcnl knowledge of their various
branches and are familiar with more
languages than the representatives Of
other nations. Their efficiency in these
lines is due to their training In special
institutions in Germany.

"The attitude of the thinker toward

REVOLVING SCENES

In the Famine Camps Of India-Dy-
ing in Roadside Ditches-Condi-
ton Of Patients Beggars Dsscrtp-
ton.
BOMBAY, June s.-Louls Klopsch, Of
New York, publisher Of the Christian
Herald. who arrived here May Il, and
started at once on tour Of the famine
stricken districts, has returned, after
travelling through the most sorely
smitten portions Of the Bombay presi-
dency, including Gujerat and Barolda.
He makes the following statement re-
gardlng his observations:
Everywhere met the most shocking
and revolving scenes. The famine camps
have been swept by cholera and small
pox. Fugitlves, scattering in all direc-
ttons and striken in flight, were found
dying in the fields and roadside bitches.
The numbers at one relief station were
Increasing at the rate of 10000 per day.
Hospital Death Rate 90 Per Cent.
At Godhora there were 1900 deaths
from cholera within four days. and at
Dohad $500 in the same period. The
hospital death rate at Godhera and Do
had was 90 per cent.
'The condition OF the stricken simply
beggars description. Air and water
were impregnated with an intolerable
stencil OF corpses. At Ahmedabad the
.-ae1th-rate in the poor house was 10 per
cent. Every day saw new patients
placed face to face with coFpses. In
every fourth cot there was corpse.
"The thermometer read 1l5 in the
shade. Millions of files hovered around
the uncleansed dysentery patients.
Patients Lay on the Ground.
"I visited the smallpox and cholera
wards at virasam. All the patients
were lying on the ground, there being
no cots. otherwise their condition was
fair.
81 can fully verify the reports that
vultures, dogs and jncEals are devour-
ing the dead. Dogs have been seen run
ming about with chlldren's limbs IN
their jaw.
"The government is doing Its BEST
but the native officials are heartlessly
inefficient. Between the famine, the
plague and the cholera. the condition
of Bombay resIdency is now worse
than it has been at any previous period
in the nineteenth century. Whole fam
flies have been biotted out. The spirit
of the people is broken and there may
be something still worse to come when
the Monsoon breaks"

Ohio Republicans are at present in
a quandary, and when the matter is
fully looked into it is no wonder they
despair and their hearts become weak.
If you ask an Ohio Republican some
question about the measures before
the present Congress he Immediately
becomes reticent and nine times out
of ten will say. We'll, all Republic
cans should stand by Mckinley"
Such is the answer, and it plainly
shows they are deeply worried over
the affairs at the nations capital and
are putting all their energy to keep
back a revolt that has been a swift
u~ndercurrent for the past two years.
But the great feature is what has
become of Mark Hanna's power.
Mark is fast going down the ladder of
political fame. Slowly he clings to
each rung, then grasps at one below.
Hanna for the last four years has
been the power over the President, and
is to-day. He has been the head of
his party in Ohio; he has dictated
terms to the Senate and made Con-
gress his servants; but the future
shows that Marks glory is on the
wane, and has thus been caught up
by Ohio Republicans. His attempts
to bulldoze pet measures through Con-
gress and the Ohio Legislature, have
been quickly caught on to by the poi
iticians in Ohio. We give the follow
ing failures of Hanna in the last few
months:
The ship subsidy bill, laid over until
the next session. This was Marks
bill, but when he cracked the whip
the party failed to get into line.
The Porto Rican tariff, still hang
ing In the Senate. The lash again
was used and was met with open de-
fance. Second failure.
His next act is to declare that the
Philippines shall not enjoy territorial
government and that a tariff must
be placed against their goods to pro-
tect the laboring men of this country.
This third failure was considered a
joke, as every laboring man knows
his past conduct was to reduce labor
to serfdom.
Then Mark N back to Ohio to
| save his party by defeating the Clark
local option bill, pending in the Sen
ate, and with money and promises OF
| patronage. with letters from McKin-
ley, he managed to defeat the bill by
q vote Of sixteen to fifteen.
Mark bought Geo. B. Cox from Seq

the week to take up four thousand
acres of coal land recently optioned in
this county. The money will be paid
over at nee. 1t is thought that the
purchase has been made for c. lutte &
Co., of Pittsburg.
j. c. Jolliffe, who has recently re-
turned from the gold region of British
Columbia, has been in town visiting
relatives. He has a great many mug
gets with him to show for the work of
the past year. He states hat none OF
the drawbacks of the Klondike are to
be encountered in Columbia, and that
the region is one of surprising rich
ness. A stock company is being form
ed to work his claim, which consists
of eighty acres and is of great depth.
The claim right above 1t has paid mill

the latter. Cox is known as The al
ministration high prince Of Cincin-
natl, q man who does not know that
there IS such a word as honesty. He
is quiet in his demeanor, but has q
thirst for Doodle that is Unsuitable.
One aim of his is to own Cincinnati
body and soul, SO Mark and he pre-
pared a bill placing the city under a
board or committee that shall control
all the city and be named by the Gov
ernor (not the people,. This bill was
introduced in the Ohio Legislature and
was known as the Hanna-Cox Ripper
Bill. Mark used his influence and Cox
made the State capital his headquar-
tiers, hut the bill could not go through.
Gov. Nash, Hanna's tool, got down on
his knees and begged Mckinley and
warned them of the coming national
campaign, but all failed. Finally the
bill passed, but was amended that this
board of all power should be elected
by the people. This is the last defeat
for Mark Hanna.
Two years ago he bought his way to
the Senate and to-day he has to beg
and plead for any act he wants. His
party lash is weak, patronage is all
given out, Mark is in the cold, and is
now a defeated general, with no power
to rally his forces. The party sees him
failing. They hear the growls from
the element who only stood by Hanna
for party's sake and warned the lead
ers the future would be bitter, and as
one leading Ohio Republican stated
"he once ruled Congress, he once was
dictator of the whole Republican par
ty; he once owned the Ohio Legisla-
ture, but all have left him and now
he only owns the President, of which
the party is far from being proud Of"
No wonder, then, Ohio Republicans
are quiet, for the nan who always
used "I' in his speeches is fast losing
his power and it can be truthfully
stated that in Ohio to-day he is a
barnacle to the party.
Will Mckinley carry Ohio? is a
question often asked. Nash was elect
ed Governor I'VE Mclean by almost
$4,000 votes; Jones, Independent, re-
ceived over 100, 900 votes, two-thirds
of which were Democrats and the bal
ance were anti-McKinley and Hanna
Republican votes. and all were In
favor of free silver. The vote polled
was large, and many staunch old
Democrats were anti-McLean and
were open in their denunciation OF
him. Draw your own conclusions, but
don't forget that over 100000 votes
were cast for Jones.
From the present outlook it will
be goodbye Mark and farewell to little
Mac. Bryan is the choice Of the
voters of Ohio.
