You will recall my announcement OF
the failure Of the famous old publish
ing house OF ID. Appleton & Co. some
weeks ago rs "a thunderstorm out Of
a clear sky The renewal of publica.
ton by the company has been re-
garded from the first as only ques
tion Of very short time, but there is
peculiar satisfaction in seeing the
announcement of new books over the
old and familiar name. As told you at
the time, the temporary embarrass.
ment of the house was not caused by
lack of business, or by extravaganza,
but simply by too much prosperity in
installment sales, which involved an
extension of credit that made it pru-
dent, and, presumably, essential to
gain an extension of time. This az
ton. and the course pursued since OF
preserving a dignitied silence while
submitting every detail of the
houses vast business TO a minute ex-
animation, has been painful one, but
it is more than justified for the show
ing is far better in every way than was
expected. Every act of the house
has been found honorable and conser.
vative, and there is no symptom OF
''dry rot or extravaganza. And fur
thermore, the great property has
been preserved unmortgaged and I'M
pledged. Under these conditions
there can be no doubt as to the reou-
peration of the house and its renewal
of career of prosperity and useful
ness which may prove even more pros
porous in the future than in the past.

Washington, May 3.--The debate on the
Nicara guam bill became very warm yes
| \erday afternoon when Mr.. Hepburn at
lacked Mr. Cannon for his opposition to
the canal and the methods employed.
! Mr.. Hepburn announced with great
! emphasis that the man who said he was
! not sincerely working for the canal lied,
and added that If ii were parliamentary
to do it, he would say that the man who
attempted to give currency to that
charge by its repetition was a liar Great
| excitement prevailed, for this plainly
| meant Mr. Cannon, who promptly arose
and began by saying he had seen men
try to play the cuttlelish act before, but
that it would not work.
Mr.. Cannon then read from what he
said about Hepburn, maintaining that
the qualifications IN his phrases relieved
nm tfom any such charge. and conclud-
ing: Il dismiss the whole matter. On
sober second thought the gentleman
from Iowa, when his partisanship fer
this bill has mad time to cool. will see
that his temper rather than his juGg-
ment has inspired his attack upon me
yesterday and today"
The house, at the conclusion Of the
debate. passed the bill by the over
whelming vote Of 225 to 30. All attempts
to retain in the bill the language of the
original bill for the fortiiica ton of the
canal and to still further strengthen the
language ON that line were balked. and
the victory of Mr.. Hepburn and the CON-
mittee was complete. A motion to re.
commit the bill with instructions to re-
port back another bill. leaving the selec-
ton of the route to the president, was
buried under an adverse vote of 50 to IL.
Washington, May 3.-Secretary Long

the incident. recalls the fact that Cap

he talked was n Nspapcr man, and
