property from John Jordi of Sill

bonahde. A party who worked on

There has been quite an exodus
of Florentines to the mountains
lately, presumably to escape the
heat which has been intense and
quite unprecedented for years.
Misery loves company, and the
most consolation Florence can
CLEAN is that the heat has been
proportionately greater all over the
country than for years past. Our
eastern friends who think of us as
basking in the cool shade of the
Rocky mountains would drink on
us".could they feel our tempera-
ture just now and watch US mop
our faces while we were inwardly
growing profane.

BUCKEYE CAMPAIGN
REPUBLICAN SPELLBINDERs START
THE POLITICAL BALL ROLL
ING AT DELAWARE
STATE ISSUES ARE PASSED UP
Speakers Appeal for Votes in No.
yember Election Because of the
Assassination Of William
MKinIey.

DELAWARE, Ohio, Oct. 19.-The OPEN
ing of the Ohio campaign here today by
the Republicans was considered the most
largely attended for years. A feature of
the occasion, from the opening prayer
of President Bashford to the closing
speech of Senator Hanna, was the res
membrance of Mckinley and the appeal
for the support ref President Roosevelt.
There was little reference to state affairs
by Chairman WarEser or by Nash and
Nippert, who head the state ticket, and
none by Senators Foraker and Hanna.
When Senator Foraker referred to
President Roosevelt entertaining Prof.
Booker T. Washington ''as representa-
tive of the colored race there was quite
a demonstration. The colored voters had
two large clubs present that had just
broken ranks and pressed into the crowd
to join in the demonstrations as Senator
Foraker proceeded.
The greatest demonstration of the day
was when Senator Hanna declared that
he did not intend to quit politics or re-
sign as senator or chairman of the ma
tional Republican committee. The crowd
assumed that Senator Hanna was refer
ring to his fellow townsman, although
not by name, Mayer Tom l.. Johnson, as
he proceeded, ana there were cries from
the platform that Mayor johnson had
gone. Mayor Johnson mingled with the
crowds of his political opponents until
speaking began, and then he was accord
ed a seat on the platform until his spe-
cial train left for Cleveland.

SYDNEY C. B. SCORCHED
ALMOST THE ENTIRE TOWN WIPED
OUT
Water Supply Failed, and Fire En-
gines Had to Pump From the
HarbOr-Half a Million
Damage.

HALIFAX, N. s., Oct 19.-The pros
percus and thriving town of Sydney was
almost swept out of existence today by
fierce confagration which started about
o'clock. The flames, which were famed
by forty-five-mile gale, swept through
the principal business portions of the
town, causing ruin and devastation. Four
blocks of the finest business buildings
are in ashes.
The only thing that saved the city
from total destruction was heavy rain
storm, which set in after dark, and, as
the wind decreased in fury, the firemen
and hundreds of miners succeeded in
getting the fire under control. Over sixty
buildings are in ashes and many more
are badly scorched. The buildings were
nearly all large wooden structures, and
they burned SO fiercely that it was i'm
possible to save any of their contents.
The firemen were greatly handicapped
at the outset by the poor supply of wa
ter. The fire started in a three-story
frame building on Charlotte street, occu-
pied by Charles Gillis and Gordon &
Keith When the firemen arrived on the
scene the building was burning fiercely
and the wind was blowing the flames
over the tops of the adjoining buildings.
In very short time the fire spread to

CHANGE IN THE RULES.

The dispute is due to the action of the
committee, which, some time ago, modi-
ned the terms of the contest by insert
ing the latter stipulation. Santos-Du-
mont at the time protested and refused
to be bound by the fresh regulation, and
strenuously upheld this view with the
Count de Dion and other members of the
committee on descending today, finally
declaring that he considered that he had
won the prize and would not try again.
If the money was withheld, it was not
his fault.
M. Deutsch said he would give 25, 600
francs to the poor, notwithstanding the
decision of the committee, but Santos
Dumont declined to accept the offer as a
solation of the difficulty. There was a
large assemblage of people at the Eiffel
tower and considerable interest was
manifested in the experiment in other
parts Of Paris, groups of people gather
ing in the streets to watch the progress
OF the elongated, yellow balloon, With
Its long guide rope hanging, and white
canvas propellers Wfirling around, while
those below distinctly distinguished the
loud buzzing of the motor.
Santos-Dumont rounded the tower be-
tween the second and topmost platforms
at about seventy-fve yards away from
the tower
The balloon pitched somewhat when
going against the wind, and Santos-D
mont, when he descended, said the mo-
tor suddenly stopped while the balloon
was a little distance from the tower.
He thought he might have to descend,
but luckily he succeeded in getting the
motor started again. From that time on
during the trip the motor worked salts
factorily.

Anxious to Have the Northern Pacific Situ-
alton Adjusted On Some Sort of
Permanent Basis
Considered Probable By Well Posted OBJ
servers That the Preferred Stock
Will Be Retired

Amalgamated Copper representing the
industrials and developing the current
trend of speculation in them, and North
ern Pacific officiating in the same man
ner for the railroads. The problem in
respect to the first is that of sustaining
the price of a product at a figure identi-
cal with that ruling when the foreign
demand was so per cent greater than
now. 1t must be assumed that a con-
test in Northern Pacific still exists, OF
else there is no significance in this
weeks advance in the preferred. Trans
actions of 5000 shares III two DAYS may
indicate number of new conditions
The question of right or desire of the
Northern Pacific company to retire it's
preferred stock is fundamental in the
present instance, for although there was
a satisfactory truce obtained when the
new board of directors of the road was
named. there was nothing done to dis
turb the value of preferred shares, by
which the Observation-Disclosures syndi-
cate held their portion of power. It is
quite likely that they will object to the
retirement Of these shares save as thew
are compensated through the grant Of
privileges which will advance the posi-
ton of Union Pacific The belief that in
definite readjustment of the Western
railroad situation one faction NAV gain
more than another and that this with
react on the prices Of securities involved
In the Freadjustment accounts for the ex-
treme sensitiveness of Western railroad
shares to the development in the actual
or supposed accomplishment of the desir-
ed results. 1t is not believed that
schemes for increasing values through
the formation of new compan nies and the
transfer of one class of securities for an
ether will at this time receive much pub
lie support. There is a market of stocks
that have the guarantee 70 careful man
agement and a fair amount of surplus
behind them. Very few are worrying
over such contingency as a permanent
falling off in earnings or decided lapse
IN any of the conditions that have been
and appear to be making for steady
growth in all the departments of COM
mercial power.

CORNWALL AT HALIFAX
VISIT To CANADA ALMOST AT AN
END.

HALIFAX, N. S., Oct. 19-The Duke
and Duchess of Cornwall and York and
the royal party reached the last stage OF
their transcontinenta1 journey touay
when the royal train in two sections
rolled into the capital of Nova Scotia. A
stop for the night had been made at
Windsor Junction, about thirty miles
from Halifax, and at noon amid &ne
booming of cannon from the warships
and forts and loud cheering from an i'm
mense concourse of people gathered at
the North street depot they made a tri-
umphant entry into the city. The royal
couple Were presented with an address
by Mayor Hamilton and Rev. Principal
Forest, on behalf of Dalhousie uni
versity- After the presentation of the
address the visitors drove to the provin-
eial parliaments buildings, where the
duke laid the corner stone of the monu-
ment to be erected in memory of Nova
Scotia soldiers who fell in the South
African war. A large number of people
witnessed this ceremony, and at it's con-
clusion three cheers were given for the
duke.
The duke, in the course of his speech
IN reply to the address of Mayor Ham,
ilton, referred to his hearty reception in
Canada, and said that he considered it
was fitting that he should take leave of
Canada in the province that was the first
over which the British flag waved. After
the laying of the corner stone the royal
procession reformed, and the visitors pro-
ceeded to H. M. S. Ophir, the royal yacht,
lying in the stream. Both sides of the
street were lined with troops. After their
royal highnesses had lunched on board
the Ophir they reviewed some 1000 troops
on the Halifax common.
A very large crowd had gathered for
this function and tha dulka was chepred
on his arrival and departure from the
grounds. A feature of the review was
the presentation of colors to the Sixty
eighth Princess Louise Fusiliers and OF
medals to the South African veterans
Maj. H. B. Stairs was also presented
with a. sword for gallant conduct in
South Africa.
There was a state dinner on board the
Cphir this evening. and later an official
reception in the legislative council cham

show shortage of $500, of which sum
$500 is covered by a fidelity bond.
Armitage subsequently made remark
able confession, which sent the police
scurrying after four supposed accomplices
who, as alleged, had in turn robbed the
dishonest bank messenger of practically
all the money he had stolen. Armitage
said that he had met woman whom he
knew only as Marie at a roadhouse
which they both freduented. She was a
friend of the piano player in the resort,
the wife of the piano player and vlOlin-
iSt who also furnished music in the place,
and Armitage, introduced to the party
by Marie, became friendly with all. Ar
mitage said that after he stole the money
he got drunk and was unable to return
the checks. Marie and the wife of the
piano player agreed to do it for him, and
taking the bank wallet to Brooklyn hired
a negro woman to return it to the bank.
Armitage said that as the woman left
him Marie suggested that she had better
take charge of the stolen money for
safety. Armitage said he gave up the
money, and the woman never came back.
It is believed that the police have the
names of the entire party and will arrest
all four.
The woman who returned the s5O.0O0
worth of drafts taken by George Armi-
tage from the Bank of New Amsterdam,
when the bank messenger disappeared so
mysteriously. according to the Journal
and Advertiser, is Mrs. Isabel Quagh,
colored, dressmaker, of Brooklyn. Mrs.
Quagh claims that the package contain
ing the drafts was turned over to her
young son by a well dressed woman, and
that the youth was given a dollar to
convey it to ais mother, who sent the
package back to the bank by express.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1901-10-20

NEW YORK, Oct 19-(Special)-
Speaking of Northern Pacific affairs, an
influential representative of the Harri-
meH syndicate says that negotiations are
under way for permanent readjustment,
but that nothing definite has been agreed
upon as yet. Proposals for the retirement
of the preferred stock are under consid-
Grafton, but thus far the terms have not
been satisfactory to all the parties inter-
ested. This same authority is quoted as
follows:
"All talk of an offer having been made
to the Hartman interests of an equiva-
lent in the acquisition of st. Paul, in re-
turn for their retirement from Northern
Pacific, has no actual basis.''
The prevailing belief in Wall street is
that the recent selling of Northern Pa
Clue preferred in the stock market has
been by representatives of the Morgan
Hill interests. A large proportion of the
purchases has been made by brokers
identified with the Hartman interests
e. H. Hartman, it is asserted, has made
his plans to go to the Pacific coast with
in few days, and he is desirous of hav-
ing this Northern Pacific matter settled
as soon as possible. Although Mr.. Nor
gan, who is now in Seattle, is not ex-
pected home before Nov. 1, he is in con-
slant communication by wire with his
partners in this city.
FAVORED BY HILL.
James J. Hill, an important factor in
Northern Pacific matters, now in New
York, is credited with favoring speedy re-
tirement of Northern Pacific preferred
stock. and persons close to Mr.. Morgan
say that in all probability this stock will
be retired, but not before the Hartman
interests, which hold the larger part of
the preferred, are satisfied with the
terms. There is a rumor that the pre-
ferred will receive the equivalent of S115
per share.
An official announcement regarding the
completion of Mr.. Hills new proprietary
corporation is expected within a few
days. This new company is designed to
control a majority of the stock of the
Great Northern railway and possibly of
the Northern Pacific also
Until these two important problems are
solved, the market Is likely to remain
Irregular.
Nearly every movement of consequence
in the past three weeks has been associ-
ated with some change in the Amalga-
mated Copper situation, or with the sign
OF some favorable turn in what is still
classified as the Northern Pacific mat
ter
TROUBLE WITH COPPER.
These are the two parts to the market
that have direct influence on sentiment,
