HAY WILL MAKE
 M'K|NLEY GRAFTON Joint Committee of Two Houses
 Select Him IS EMlNENTLY QUALIFIED Senator Fairbanks Says That No Pres ldent Ever Understood Con-
 aress Better Than Mckin-
 ley-Time of Service.
IS EMlNENTLY QUALIFIED

Washington, December 13.-The joint appointed to make the necessary ar engagements for a memorial service in honor of the late President Mckinley held a meeting today and decided to in- vite Secretary of State John Hay to be the orator whenever the proposed ser vices shall be held. This selection was made upon a motion by Senator Fair banks. He briefly addressed the commit tee, speaking feelingly of President Me Kinley, referring to Secretary Hays fit- ness for the task and outlining prece- dents. He said no President had ever so well understood Congress as did Pres ident Mckinley and that strong bond of mutual confidence and respect united him to that body. He then told how Hon. George Bancroft and Secretary Blaine, had, upon invitation, delivered memorial addresses after the deaths of Lincoln and Garfield before joint meet ings of the Senate and House to which the foreign diplomats as we'll as United States officials were invited. He then said:
 'The selection for this great work should fall upon a man who is fitted be- cause of his personal relations to the President and because of his great achievements and renown. The name which comes almost unbidden to the lips of us all in this case is that of Secretary John Hay and it would, indeed, add to the symmetry of the occasion and be an emphasis of our tribute if he could be selected this morning."
 Senator Fairbanks then moved that a committee be appointed to call upon Sec retary Hay Monday next at 10 a. m. and invite him to make an address. The motion prevailed and the committee was named as follows:
 Senators Foraker, Fairbanks, Jones, of Arkansas, and Kean; Representatives Grosvenor, Wm. Alden Smith, Fleming and Shafroth.
 The time for the proposed service will be fixed later.

returns for November show that earnings were 11.5 per cent greater than in the game month last year and 1S.1 per cent over those of 1899. Industrial and tranc- ton shares were even more violently dis turbed, yet the manufacturing plants of the nation were never more fully occu- pied. Numerous labor controversies have been settled and the rate of wages Is at the highest point ever attained. Retail distribution is of massive proportions, with dealings in holiday goods the con spicuous feature. This class of business so far exceeds all previous records that it alone gives out unmistakable evidences of the nations prosperity. Despite the full engagements of most of the steel mills we'll into next year, the week has brought large amount of new business, particularly in railroad equipment. Sta bility of prices continues the best feature. Reports during the closing week of No vember dwelt on the scarcity of cars and motive power, implying that furnaces could not secure coke and were going out of blast, while pig iron could not pc moved from the yards to the mill. Never theless. the Iron Age shows 266 furnaces in blast on December l, with capaclty of 761 tons weekly. Since the month opened, however, there has been more interruption, and the present rate or yield is probably much lighter. Furnace stocks of pig iron decreased 4yISO tons during November to only 22S 462 tons
 Many Western grain producers and dealers have announced their intention to hold their supplies until spring, when the scarcity would be marked and quota tions are on a more profitable point. Speculative operators. as usual, antlcipat- ed this tendency. The upward movement of option prices culminated on Monday, when May deliveries at this city com manded 8sB cents Exports of wheat, including flour, from all ports of the United States were 86SS, ,611 bushels dur ing the last two weeks. against 7,517, 205 bushels last year, and 7,S62,219 bushels two years ago.
 Fancy prices have not yet materially re- stricted foreign buying, but there is evil dence that Western holders are being tempted to part with their supplies; in two weeks interior receipts have been IA 7S7,S17 bushels, against 10,S44834 last year. and S,975, FPS bushels two years ago. Corn at 7sh cents was a new high point for nearly decade, exceeding the price of a
 year ago by 60 per cent, and approaching close to the quotation commanded by ! wheat last year. when the yield was

MANY PATRIOTIC OFFERS

London, December 13.-The Times, in it's from Valparaiso under today's date an- nouncing that decrees have been pub lished calling out a sufficient number of conscripts and territorial guards to place 30, 900 men at the disposal of Chilli to pro- tect the mountain passes. Paris, December 13-A dispatch received here from Santiago de Chili under to- days date says: The alarm manifested in Argentine is declared In Chilian off, cia1 circles to be unwarranted. In the opinion of the government the boundary dispute will never justify rupture" A news agency here this afternoon re- ceived dispatch from it's office at Bue- nos Ayres dated II o'clock this morning confirming the dispatch from the Asso- ciated Press from Buenos Ayres last night announcing the calling out of the Argentine reserves, and adding that at the request of the government the chair man of the Deputies had sanctioned a bill setting aside the conversion fund to be used for the national defense. Con- tinuing, the dispatch from Buenos Ayres says:
 United States May Mediate.
 
 "The report that the United States will offer it's good offices is confirmed Brazil has also offered mediation.
 Tt is announced that Chill has called out 15,000 men but the news is questioned because Chilli, it Is claimed does not pos sess the means to equip and move such body of men.
 Much anxiety prevails here in view of the fact that decisive conference on the boundary dispute and other matters is to take place at Santiago today.
 ''Senor Anchorena has offered to bear the expense of a regiment during the en- tire campaign. and patriotic offers of various descriptions are arriving from all parts of the country. Nevertheless, in certain centers the opinion is persistently held that war between Argentine and Chili is improbable"
 Basis of Settlement.
 London, December 13.-The Associated Press learns from an authoritative source that the Gillian reply to the representa- ton of the minister of the Argentine Republic to Chili was presented today. Confidence is expressed by the officials here that the basis for settlement pro- posed will lead to a satisfa ctory arrange ment between the two governments.

TAKEN FROM YOUNG LADY'S SIDE
Member of Regiment Placed Under Arrest
Under Embarrassing Circumstances.

There was something Of a sensation
sprung at the Regimental Armory last
night when well known member of
Company A, was brought into the armory
under arrest for non attendance upon
drill.
The young man was arrested upon
orders from Captain Saville. He had
failed to show up at the armory for a
number of drills and was absent at the
inspection several weeks ago and kept
the company from making 100 per cent.
as he was the only man absent.
The arrest was made by a squad of men
under Sergeant Leon Schwartzmao while
the soldier was quietly walking down
South Laurel Street with q young lady.
He was halted, much to the surprise of
himself and the young lady. AT first he
took the matter as joke. He soon dis
covered the difference, as he and the
young lady were escorted to the latters
gate and there placed under arrest. He
was carried to the armory much against
his wishes.
Captain Savlle gave him one hour to
be csc orted to his home and returnl with
his uniform. He will be ordered to be dis
honorably discharged. He was Kissed by
the men OF the company when he was
brought in by the squad
This rule will be followed hereafter by
the captains when the men do not report
regularly.
