RHODE ISLAND RETURNS.
Total Vote Was Five thousand Greater
Than Last Year.

Providence, R. l., April 7.-Revised
returns from the state elections show
that the total vote was more than 5000
greater than that Of last year. The
fact that Gregory's plurality falls I, 100
below that Of the Republican candidate
last year is said by the party leaders to
be due to the great personal popularity
Of the Democratic candidate througout
the state. The assembly for 1900 will
stand 90 Republicans to Is Democrats
as compared with 50 Republicans, 10
Democrats and l Prohibitionists last
years.

after a moments hesitation he replied:
"Yes, 1 think l can answer that. Yes,
I am a Democrat"

Kitchener appointment Approved.
London, Dec. There is virtually
no fresh news from South Africa this
morning, but the retirement of Lord
Wolseley, the return of Lord Roberts
and the appointment of Lord Kitchen
err to the supreme command, occurring
as they do simultaneously, are keenly
discussed. Despite some misgivings,
hearty approval is generally expressed
over Lord Kitchener's appointment. 1t
IS felt that If any one can clear up
matters in South Africa. he is the
man; and it is readily admitted that
the ask before him, though of a diff
ferent kind, is almost as difficult as
that which faced Lord Roberts ten
months ago., and is calculated to give
the fullest scope to all of Kitchener's
talents as al organizer. The Morning
Post hints broadly that the recent de-
mand of Lord Roberts for reinforce
ments has not been complied with,
md insists that Lord Kitchener's
hands must not be tied by any lack Of
men or horses. 1t says: IF REIN
forcements are withheld or delayed
Lord Kitchener may be paralyzed,
with what consequence to the empire
no one car foresee. From 10000 to 50,-
900 men are required"

cradle emotion OF the nations debt of

London, Dec. 1.-The Spectator in a
striking article dealing with the Chi
nese crisis expresses the opinion that
the most recent developments at Pc
kin foreshadow a Chinese victory over
the allies. THE quarrel has been
brought to the test of force" it says,
"and force On the civilized side has
proved insufficient. This result Is
mainly due to the attitude of Russia
and the United States. If China es-
capes with the payment OF a small in
demnity and many promises on paper
us seems not unlikely since Germany
and Great Britain may not be willing
TO incur the expenditure and risk in
volved in rersisting in their demands,
1t Will be equivalent to a victory for
China, for nothing has occurred which
Will convince h Chinese that their
mighty empress has been defeated or
that Europe a avenge any future
thassacres."

also refuse. and the latter, although
he undertakes to send no more arms,
says he must continue sending sup
plies as long as the emperor requests
them. In fact, all our remonstrances
amount to a miserable farce. We
have no courage to
Do More Than to Talk.
In the Chinese theater here the allies
are represented by a soldier with an
enormous mouth who does nothing but
talk until his career is ended by de-
capitation."
The japanese consul here" says the
Shanghai correspondent of the Daily
News, "acting under instructions from
Toxic. has withdrawn his assent to the
consular proclamation forbidding the
importation of articles used in the
manufacture of war material. This
action has caused general surprise. 1t
Is rumored that the Chinese are active
ly purchasing arms and ammunition
and that the customs officials are con-
niving at the passage of false declara-
tons under official Instructions"

Times, wiring yesterday, says: RE

tinue. Chinese regiments and Boxers
are believed to be returning to that
district secretly, and a renewal Of
trouble is expected when the port is
closed for the winter. 1t is alleged
the Kalgan expedition met with a re-
verse and it is believed that a party
of Germans who were cut off were
obliged to abandon their dead and
wounded"
On the other had Count Won Valdez
see yesterday telegraphed to Berlin
that the German column was return
ing into Kalgan and would continue
the march under Gayl. A similar re-
verse had been previously reported and
denied at Berlin.

A Lucky Conductor.

According to a Rome correspondent
Of the LYondon Express, a conductor
on the enetiaVn electric railroad named
Nicol Cicchino has just had a great
stroke of luck.
In July. 1898, he found. ia the Via
San Lorenzo, a draft for $50, 500. on the
Marseilles Land Bank, payable to bear
err in gold. 1t was signed "Attanasio."
Cicchino deposited the check with the
authorities, awaiting the appearance
of the owner to claim his legal 10 per
cent.
The owner, however, has neve APP
peared, and a few weeks since Nicola
received an official notification that the
certificate, having never been claimed,
was now, by law, his property.

The falling Of the elevators Is perhaps
not the only danger associated with
life in the modern sky-scraper. Some
physicians, in making physical exam
nations for life insurance companies,
think they have discovered that ele-
vator boys and others who make many
trips a day are peculiarly liable to
heart-disease and premature degener-
alton Of the arteries. They do not
knew whether this is due to change
in atmospheric pressure In passing

A Wonderful Old Lady

Lord Rosebery's mother, the duchess
of Cleveland, is a wonderful old lady.
Though she is in her eighty-irst year
she is still full of energy, n is a de-
lightful companion. The king mentions
as an illustration of her activity that
she did not indulge her love for travel
until she was over seventy years of
age and since then she has made many
a journey, including a tour to India, the
West Indies and British South Africa.
The duchess was married to the late
duke of Cleveland in 1854, three years
after the death of LORD Dalmeny, Lord
