"The question is broader thnn that
II is a question of what this nation

"American diplomacy has recently
won a diplomatic victory in respect to

friends, that for century and quar-

Immense sum stolen in Cuba.

Havana, May 1O.-Thc military
authorities are convinced that
there was an organized ring of
postal officials here to carry on steal
ing The amount secured is not known
but may reach 100000.
The postal frauds have now reached
n point where, within the next twenty
four hours, arrests will probably be
made, and 1t Is believed a considerable
sum will be recovered ut the same
time. One of the culprits has made n
complete confession, conditional upon
being accepted as states evidence.
What he says proves conclusively
what was known before, that several
others besides C. +. w. Neeley are
implicated.
The exact dates have been obtained
by the authorities. The latter refuse to
give the name OF the man who has
confessed. but though shocked at the
nature of the cold-blooded swindle,
they are still glad that they have evil
dence to completely Justify their action
in regard to Neeley.

Tho engineering world Of Europe has
not. It 10 said, recovered from the sur
prise over the remarkable performance
at Antwerp Of big dredge-boat con
structed in Belgium for the Russian
government on plans prepared by an
American engineer. Chicagoan. un-
der the contract the boat was to have
q capacity OF 1000 cubic yards OF
dredging per hour. She recorded a
capacity of 1900 yards on trial. Sc
great was the interest IN the trial
that most Of the foreign ambassadors
were present. the Belgian cabinet
commissions from Australia. India
Germany. France. the Argentine Re
public and hundreds of engineers from
all parts OF Europe. Trains were run
at reduced rates to accommodate the
people eager to see the American
dredge, the most powerful in the world
and for six weeks boats were kept run
ming at Antwerp to carry visitors tc
the point of operation. The immediate
effect has been to cause orders to be
placed for similar dredges for India
Australia and Russia The facts were
reported to the state department by
Consul General Holloway at st. Peters

Rnhher. scarnd on.

Delaware, Ohio, May 10.-Five rob-
bers nearly demolished the Farmers
Bank at Sunbury about / o'clock this
morning by using dynamite to blow
open the time safe, which contained
about 100000. The bank is situated
between two residences. The explos-
ion split open the safe and caused the
stone front of the bank building to fall.
The noise awakened the nelghbors,
who were out in few seconds. The
burglars began shooting, in the hope of
keeping the people away until they
could get some of the money which lay
exposed to their view. The thieves
were compelled to retreat to escape
capture, leaving the bags of gold and

Among other features Of the South
African war the new Developments In
the use of the heliograph are worth
noticing. The idea of telegraphing by
means of flashes of sunlight first came
into prominence during the Franco
Prussian war. The electric light was
at once suggested to make the system
independent of Interference from
clouds, but the difnculty Of getting
eIectricity in the field has thus far In

81 the two Inventions. IN tho present
war the British have made some use
of the electric searchlights from their
ships for purposes Of optical teie-
graphy, but sunlight is still their main
reliance. A writer in the Engineer
ing Magazine for May states that the
ordinary range of the heliograph is
fifty-five miles. but when the electric
arc light is used the range can be ex-
tended to 400 miles. The success with
which the heiiograph was used In
communicating with the besieged gar
risons Of Ladysmith and Kimberley is
q GOOD demonstration Of the progress
made with this invention since 1870.

In the discussion in the Senate of the
question of providing armor plate for
battleships now being built a notable
speech was delivered by Mr.. Lodge of
Massachusetts upon the necessity of
building up the United States navy
without delay. The speech was deliv-
cred with the vigor and earnestness
characteristic of Mr.. Lodges discussion
Of public questions. and attracted much
attention. In opposing an amendment
to delay buying armor plate until the
United States could erect its own plant
he said: 81 hope and believe that we
shall have no war. but great fleet is
the greatest assurance of peace How
ever, we would be foolish, indeed, II
we should close our eyes to the possi-
bilities of the situation. We could new

nation which should undertake to take
possession of those islands. right on

very act become an enemy OF ours We
