FIRM ON MONROEISM.
President in Message Will Take Stand
Against EurOpean Entertainment.

Chicago, Nov. l4.--Walter WeIlman
in Washington dispatch to the Rec
crd-Herald says: mo European en-
croachment upon the soil of America,
either by direct acquisition or by the
purchase of coaling sta lions, is to be
one of the keynotes of President
Roosevelt's message to congress.
THE president is to have something
to say about the Monroe doctrine,
and he will speak in no uncertain
words. He intends to reaffirm the
vital principle of Monroeism, and to
apply it to modern conditions. In
the presidents opinion consistent
enforcement of the Monroe doctrine
requires the United States to object
to the establishment of foreign naval
stations in the special sphere of
American interest ana influence
namely, the West Indies, the Carib-
bean sea and the isthmus of Daricn.
"On account of the acquisition by
the United States Of Porto Rico. our
suzerainty over Cuba, our contem-
plated purchase of the Danish islands
in the West Indies and the moral
certainty that sooner Or later the
United States will dig an isthmian
canal, the interests OF the United
States in that region assume para
mountcy over those of all other pow
ers. The West Indies and the 18th
mus are, in other words, a zone Of
American special interest, and the
Caribbean is an American sea.
TO safeguard the rights of the
United States in this region, with an
ultimate view to protection of the
canal, is purpose near to the heart
of President Roosevelt. Hence his
reatfir1nation of the Monroe doctrine,
and hence his desire SO to state his
position that foreign governments
may read between the lines and un-
derstand that naval stations are not
to be had within striking distance of
the proposed canal without mourning
the displeasure of the United States.
'rhe United States is undertaking
great responsibility in the ;sthmus.
1t proposes to construct canal cost
ing at least $2O0, 100000, and perhaps
$3OO,O00,OOO. 1t undertakes 20 keep
that Waterway open to the ships Ut
al nations, on equal terms, in times
of peace. In war times IL naturally
will have to defend the canal as
part of it's coast line, as a central fea-
ture or it's scheme of national de-
tense. Hence it would be foolishly
short-sighted of the United States 10
permit other great powers to secure
strong foothold in the immediate
eighborhood of the canal. 1t is
not the intention of the United States
to permit any such foothold to be Sc
cured.''

A curious letter from Mindanao, in
the Philippines, has been received at
The war department from Washington.
1t is written in characters not unlike
the notes OF musical score, and is an
acknowledgment Of gift by Wato
Mama Datoh Baqui, one of the native
chiefs. His conduct had been so exem-
plary at the time when other inhabi-
talts of the Philippine Isles were
giving much trouble to the United
States that General Macarthur, after
4 tour through that part Of the archi-
pelago, decided to send Datoh a cane.
He accordingly had one beautifully
headed and engraved, at an expense Of
about $3e, and forwarded it to the
loyal chief with his compliments. The
acknowledgment, translated into Eng
lish. is az follows: "This letter from

Des Noines Decides That Is the Way Out
of Waterworks Controversy.
Des Moines, Nov. 15.-At the Com
mercial Exchange lunch in the private
dining nom at the Grant club, at
which were present the directors of
the exchange and a comm4Ctee of ex-
change members appointed some two
weeks ago to investigate the army
post matter. it was decided to imme-
diately petition the council to annex
the army post size and SO extend the
limits of the city that the southern
boundary will be the Warren county
line, half mile south of the south
ern line of the post size, the western
limit to be a half ME west of South
Ninth street. the western boundary of
the post, and the eastern boundary a
half mile east Of East Sixth street,
the eastern post boundary.
1t is the opinion of the directors,
the committee and all those who have
interested themselves in the matter
lnat annexation is absolutely. the
only way in which the water works
company can be forced to lay it's
mains to the post, and at, as the
laying Of ,ne mains is the only con-
dition named by lac government with
which the city has not complied. the
council should take speedy action and
dispose of the matter in the best man
ner possible.

Clergy man says She Is Captive at
Ceres. Macedonia.
New York. Nov. 14.--lTan Moloehoh,
a Bulgarian clergyman from uscnb,
in Macedonia. has just arrived from
visiting Miss Stone ana is now in con-
sultation with Mrs. Dickinson, says
a Sofia. Bulgaria, dispatch, TO the
Journal and Advertiser.
Miss Stone. he said, is in the house
!. of Bekir Bey in the town of Ceres,
Macedonia. Il left her two days ago,
coming direct TO Mr.. Dickinson to
try to arrange tor her release. Miss
Stone and Mime. Tsiika are well, but
the strain is terrific, and there IS
danger that Miss Stone may lose her
mind To be always in the same sur
roundings is likely to drive her
crazy: constantly looking at the same
objects has semi-lnesmerized her and
she has had a presentment that evil
will befall her.
THE brigand chief informs me that
he will now insist on the full ransom,
as the length of time Miss Stone has
been left on his hands leaves no mar
gins for bargaining. The name of
the brigand chief is Dervich 9oun-
ouss, and he is an Albanian. Eekr
Bey. in whose house Miss Stone is
confined, is hand in glove with the
'brigard chief Bekir Bey assisted the
brigands by keeping Miss Stone for
thirty days in the mountains before
taking her to his house.
There are about $50 Macedonians
imprisoned in connection with the
Stone affair by the Turkish officials.
/ want no personal compensation,
but want the Macedonians released.
If the American. English and French
consuls at Salonica insist on Bekir
Bey releasing Miss Stone it Will not
be necessary to deal with the brig
ands, and we can get her release
without paying ransom

CANAL AND PACIFIC CABLE.
Important Subjects to BE Considered BY
Next Session OF Congress.

Next Session OF Congress.
Washington, Nov. 15.-Representa-
tive Hepburn, chairman OF interstate
and foreign commerce committee OF
the house, and Representative Sher-
man of New York, a member of the
same commit tee, had a long confer
ence with the president yesterday
about the isthmian canal and Pacific
cable legislation. As a result OF the
consultation they announced that 1T
was their purpose to press legIsla-
ton on both subjects at the earliest
possible moment.
The canal bill which passed the
house at the lat session will be rein-
troduced in substantially the form in
which it was passed last winter. No
delay is anticipated in the committee,
as the whole subiec has been cam
vassed thoroughly. Colonel Hep
burn told the president that the bill
undoubtedly would have large ma
iority in the house.
The cable bill will be identical with
the one reported from the committee
during the last congress. 1t provides
for the laying of the cable by a pri-
vate corporation under contract
with the postmaster general, with an
alternative provision for the building
of the cable by the government if no
satisfa Glory contract can be made.
1t is understood that the president
concurred in the proposed program.

Mason C..v. Nov. l3.--Though ex-
plcding the safe OF the bank of Ply
mouth. in the town of that name nine
miles northeast of this city, with such
force that pieces of the iron chest
were blown through the building and
struck the hotel nearly 100 feet dls-
tanx. the people of the little town
were not awakened and the robbers
eor away with all the money the bank
contained. The people knew nothing
OF the robbery until daybreak.
Bank officials viii give ont nothing
concerning the amount OF money
taken. but admit there was nothing
left From $4,000 to $4,000 was us
ually carried. 1t is believed that the
amount was not much over the first
figure named and one report says
that only $500 was in the bank, the
smallest amount carried in years. The
explosion. as nearly as can be learned,
occurred at about , o'clock. The
front of the bank building was blown
out. Soap was found on the window,
evidencing that nitro-glycerine eX-
plosiveS. We're used.
The robbers were tracked three
miles south of town. where the mon
ey was evidently counted. Small
parts of the safe were found there,
probably having been gathered up
with the money in the haste of the
robbers to depart. Private detectives
who have been working in this city
for month past believe they have
a clue to the several bank robberles
that have occurred in the state in the
past few weeks. There have been
seven robberies Of this character in
Iowa and three in South Dakota near
the state line, all apparently done by
the same gang. 1t is conceded that
thew are expert cracksmen.

Marshalltown, Nov. 13.--Fire that
started shortly after midnight, COM
pletely destroyed the big plant of
the Marshall Oil company, with it's
machinery and contents, including
1000 barrels of oil. The fire was the
hottest the local company was ever
called upon to combat, and was the
most disastrous since the destruction
of the Letts-Fletchcr company's
wholesale house three years ago. The
loss will amount to from $4,000 to
$4,000, with insurance Of 100000.
Messrs. Ruth and Willard say their
loss will amount to from 100000 to
$4,000, including building. machinery
and stock. They supposed they had
insurance to the amount Of $4,000,
but the agents who placed the insur-
ance say the policies call for but
100000. with the privilege of insuring
for $4,000. The usual diversity of
opinion has also arisen concerning
the loss, and the agent who placed
the insurance says the value of the
property destroyed is in the neigh
borhood Of $4,000.

very noticeable clues behind them.

Trelford called upon them to surren-

into run. The guards then opened
fire. without effect.
The convicts had no ammunition.

rendered.
