MIR. Thomas Holmden. superintendent

terday on business. Mr.. Holmden is
skeptical about the report circulated
some weeks ago about n pack of wolves
infesting n portion of Camden county
North Carolina. two of which were
captured and sent to Delaware Park as
q nucleus of a menagerie. But the ami
mails were refused and MIR. Holmden
says they were nothing more or less
than wild dogs of n very mongrel and
DEGRADED type. 1t must be admitted
that the disclosure duls the point of a
promising newspaper yarn.

HOW MUCH A CAR HOLDS.
Produce Exchange Commission Decides
Their Capacity.

New York, Oct. 19-James Simpson,
chairman Of the New York Produce Ex-
change commission, appointed to formu-
late rules governing the purchase and
sale of grain and feeds in carload lots
for future shipment, has forwarded to
all boards Of trade and grain exchanges
throughout the country the rules sug-
gested by the committee. Members of
the New York grain trade greatly feel
the need Of adequate regulations stating
definitely the capacity of a car. 1t is
claimed that almost invariably when
the market declines, the western shipper
will secure one of the large modern cars,
making heavy carload shipment at
reduction, whereas, if it advances, they
take equal pains to secure a small car.
The rules suggested by The committee
are in part as follows:
The term immediate shipment" shall
mean that shipment shall be made with
in three business days from the day
when the shipping directions have been
received by the seller. The term quick
shipment shall mean that shipment
shall be made within five business days
from The date when shipping instructions
have been received by the seller. The
term prompt shipment" shall mean that
shipment shall be made within ten days
Exclusive of Sundays) from the date
when shipping directions have been re-
ceived by the seller. 1t shall be under
stood, where no specification of shipment
is named in contract, Il Irompt shipment"
shall apply. In sales of grain and feeds
by carloads for future delivery carload
o foats shall be deemed to contain 1900
bushels, of corn 900 bushels, of wheat 800
bushels, Of rye 800 bushels, Of barley
1000 bushels, of mill feeds in sacks 40, 900
pounds, of mill feeds in bulk 10000
!! pounds.

manner the answers made to the Ger
man notes would not have been different
from those given. Undoubtedly Germany
was greatly chagrined by the refusal Of
the United States to agree to its propo-
sition regarding the guilty Chinese off,
Gals, inasmuch as the attitude of this
government made the rejection of the
proposal certain. 1t was probably this
feeling which resulted in Baron Specks
recall. The baron was instrumental in
allaying much of the suspicion which
existed here regarding the purposes of
Germany in China but his recall, as un-
derstood here, indicates that the Berlin
government would have preferred devel-
opments which would have delayed an
early settlement. An official recalled
that the baron was largely responsible
for the solution of the Samoan question,
that presentations were due to the vir-
tual withdrawal by this government of
any claims to the Caroline islands, and
generally he worked for peaceful rela-
tions.

SHIPS THAT MAY BE LOST.
Three Ships Adrift Somewhere on the
Pacific.

San Francisco, Oct. 19.-The failure of
the City of Pekin to report the ship Wa
chusett, coal laden, from Newcastle,
Australia, for Kahului, in Hawaii, has
caused reinsurance on that long over
due vessel from 20 up to 80 per cent.
There are So men on the Wachusett,
which sailed from Newcastle on May 13.
The ship Yosemite left the same port
eight days later and reached Hawaii on
August 10. On October 10, two months
later the Wachusett had not reached
her port. New insurance is also offered
on the British iron bark Lamache, in
ballast from Callao to Copila. She is out
"a days, when the voyage should have
been made in 35 or 40 days at the out
side. There is much speculation, too, on
the Alex Mcneil, which left Port Blake-
ly, Puget Sound on Mays, for Freeman
tie, Queensland, and which has not yet
been reported. Fifty per cent is offered
on her.

BETTER THAN HIS COUNTRY.
Baron Spsck Wanted Peace, Rather
Than Trouble

New York, Oct. 19.-Distrust Of Ger
many's attitude in China has been re-
vived, result of information received
here showing the hostility of the Berlin
government to policy OF conciliation in
the settlement of the far eastern ques-
ton, says the Washington correspond
ent. 1t is said the recall of Baron Speck
was due to his efforts to smooth the road
looking to a prompt peaceful solution
of the Chinese trouble. Baron Speck re-
turned to Berlin on the steamer Deutsch-
land. Among the friends Of the baron
in official circles deep surprise was felt
when the news of his removal from
Washington was first noised about. His
relations with the administration We're
of the most cordial character, and the
officials conceded that he was doing much
to make a satisfactory solution in China
possible Exact details as to his recall
are impossible to obtain. 1t is known,
however, that Baron Speck, while en-
deavoring to carry >out the several in.
structions he had received, presented
proposals to this government in more
conciliatory fashion than the Berlin
authorities had contemplated. Being on
the ground, the baron appreciated that
1t would be advisable in the interest OF
harmonious relations between both gov
ernments for him to be less positive than
his instructions required. Officials here
are very deeply grieved over Baron
Speck's recall, as they say he has cer-
tainly aided in preserving good relations
between the two powers. 1t is, pointed
out that if he had acted in an offensive

KAISER DID NOT WANT HIM.
Count Won Buelow Not a Welcome
Successor for Hohenlohe,

New York, Oct. ia Berlin dis
patch to the Herald says: In we'll in
formed circles, it is said, it was much
against his majesty's will that Count
Won Buelow consented to accept the post
OF chancellor. A change in office
holders does not mean any change of
policy either in the foreign or domestic
policy of the empire. There will GER
tainly be no militant policy undertaken
against the socialists, and no repressive
legislation will be introduced at present
For the moment the foreign policy of
the empire completely overshadows the
domestic policy. In regard to the task
that lies before Count Won Buelow, the
press is unanimous in declaring that the
situation at present is extremely serious
and calls for man of strength and
character. Since Bismarcks time the
sphere of Germany has been immensely
widened. Questions such as the eastern
and far eastern which were formerly not
worth single Pomeranian grenadier,
are now in the front rank. The Lokai
Anzieger concludes from the simultane-
BUSINESS of the summoning of the reich
stag with the change in the chancellor
ship that the government desires to
have its Chinese policy approved by
parliament. Among the possible candi-
dates for the succession to Count Won
BueloW as secretary Of state for foreign
affairs, three names are mentioned,
those of Prince Herbert Won Bismarck,
Baron Won Richthofen, and Dr. Won
Kiderlin- -Wachter, the German minister
at Bucharest. A number of Journals
state that Prince Won Hohenlohe hal a..
ready desired to- retire when the
troubles began in China, but postponed
his resignation in order to prevent the
the impression that he was opposed to
the kaiser's China policy. Certain or
.gans of public opinion forecast a con-
f1lct between Won Buelow and DR..
MIGUEL.

lieved that the result will be CONS
plete re-establishment of rates within a
few weeks. That the desired object will
be accomplished is. however, doubted by
at least one representative of one of the
lines interested. This representative
seems to believe that there will be
a manipulation of rates so long as agents
desire to make a good showing, and that
even a blind money pool, such as in ex-
istence between trunk lines in western
business, cannot prevent rate cutting.
In support Of this theory he cites COM

HAWAIIAN REGISTRATION.
Great Rush for Voting Privileges in

Honolulu, Oct. II, via San Francisco,
Oct. 1S.-(Correspondence of the Asso-
clated Press.)-The democratic party
adopted platform at it's convention last
monday night in which the national
ticket and platform were endorsed. The
local platform declared against the ac.
QUESTION of any more sugar producing
territory by the United States. An ap-
preparation for a pension for ex-Queen
Alioukalanf by the next legislature was
Favored. The payment of the Just fire
case, caused by the fire in Chinatown
during the plague, was advocated.
The supreme court affirmed the judg-
ment of the lower court in the case Of
William N. Marshall, who was sem
'tenced to serve six months for criminal
libel. Marshall was the editor of a
weekly paper called the Volcano, and at
tackled the integrity of the late Chief
Justice Judd. In making an appeal,
Chief Justice Freer and Acting Justice
Magoon held that during the transition
period between the formal annexation OF
the Hawaiian islands and the date when
the laws made by congress for the gov
ernment of the territory went into effect,
the constitution of the United States did
not apply here, but that the former laws
VI tHe republic were IN operation.
Registration for the territory closed
on Tuesday night, the 9th. The total
registration for the district of Oahu was
5,891. Returns have not been received
from the. other islands, but it is esti-
mated that about 5000 names have been
enrolled on Hawaii, 1000 on Maui and
1000 on Kauaui During the last few
days preceding the close of registration
there was rush to the United States
judge to be naturalized. Close to 300
foreigners were declared citizens, but in
some instances applictions We're refused

The little Morris sisters Charmed the
audience with their singing, when Mr..
Weed. who had arrived shortly before.
began his speech, which took him fully
an hour and half to deliver. He dwelt
mostly on the so-called imperialism, but
at the opening he called the attention Of
the democrats to what their leader had
said four years ago, when he declared
that the silver question must be settled
right before any other question could
De considered, and this year their party
In It's platform declared it is not the
paramount issue. This year." Mr..
weed said, they say it is imperialism
that threatens the destruction of the re-
public and that is the question to be
settled first Of all. They are opposed
TO expansion, although the greatest ex-
panslon1st this country ever knew
was that great Thomas jefferson, for
winch the democratic party sings high
praises. Mr.. Weed then gave bit of his
tory regarding the expanding of the do
mains of the United States. He began by
telling how the Territory of Louisiana
was purchased for which Thomas Jeffer-
son himself was responsible and for
which the croakers of his time denounced
him for paying $15,0O0OOO for the terri
tory, just as the croakers of today are
denouncing President Mckinley todae
for reaching out further and taking in
Hawaii and the Philippine islands, where
the stars and stripes We're planted and
where they will stay. (Great applause.)
Mr.. Weed declared that miitarism was
a bugaboo. There was an army of g., 900
soldiers in this country with $4,000, 900
population. At that ratio, Anaconda. the
speaker figured with it's population of H.
ooO people or thereabouts would be about
twelve soldiers and he wanted to know
how badly those twelve soldiers could
scare all the population of the city of
Anaconda, but the democrats seem to be
scared about this great army.
Before concluding Mr.. Weed brought
up the question of the arid west and
linked 1t with the Philippine question.
He predicted that the government would
at an early date appropriate large sums
or money for the construction of reser-
Voirs and reclaiming the lands of the arid
regions, that as a natural result people
IN the crowded east would come here to
find homes, that in time this would be-
come the granary of the world. A mar
ket must then be had for our products
and he declared it would be found in the
Philippine islands, which he went further
to predict would become one of the best
markets on the globe.
Mr.. Weed closed by making an appeal
to his hearers to use every effort to elect
the entire republican, ticket and deliver
the state from the charges of bribery
that had been made against it.
Last nights meeting was presided over
by c. W. French, candidate for sheriff.
The republican glee club sang several
