HE MAY BE THE NEW POST
MASTER GENERAL.
A GOOD PROMOTION FOR HIM
Presidents Secretary Good Man for
the Place-No Official Affirmation
or Denial Of the Reports-Present
Plans Provide Reward for Efficient
Arranger Of Western Tour.
(By Associated Press.)

Washington, May 24.-Seemingly re-
liable information has been received here
that George B. Cortelyou, secretary to
the president, is soon to receive a SUBJ
stantial promotion. 1t is said that the
president intends to put him into the
cabinet, providing matters work out as
he now anticipates. In spite of explicit
dcnials. the story still goes around that
Postmaster General Smith will soon re-
tire and this is the place which rumor
seys Cortelyou is to have.
Secretary Cortelyou was asked regard
ing the dispatch. but declined to be in
terviewed and would neither affirm nor
deny the truth of the report. Postmas-
ter General Smith could not be seen.
Members of the presidential party
however, who had held conversation
with the postmaster general before leav-
ing Washington concerning his rumored
retirement from the cabinet said there
was no truth in the report and that the
postmaster general had no intention of
retiring.

SOUTH AFRICAN PREMIER GIVEN
A ROYAL RECEPTION,
MADE PEER OF THE REALM
The People Did Not Go Wild Over Him,
But Official England Turned Out En-

Long and Arduous Work in Boer
Land-Glad to Get Home.
(By Associated Press,)

London. May 24-Sir Alfred Miner has
arrived in England from South Africa
and the country is going through the
novel experience of seeing colonial
governor exploited in connection with a
much disputed act of ministerial policy.
Mr.. Chamberlain has spared neither time
nor trouble in organizing a greeting for
the high commissioner and he has so far
succeeded as to induce an acknowledge
ment of the cabinet ministers to the un-
usual course of going to Southampton to
welcome the home coming executive.
Mr. Chamberlain is also to give an os-
tentatiOus luncheon to Sir Alfred Milner,
to which, however, a number of leading
liberals have declined invitations. The
visit has been trumpeted through the
ministerial organs as a fitting occasion
for great popular demonstration in sup
port of the Chamberlain-M Milner war pol
Icy, but public enthusiasm is lacking.
Sir Alfred, when he arrived at South
ampton today, was formally welcomed by
the mayor and corporation. In a brief
reply the high commissioner said he had
been greatly benefited by the voyage. He
had come home for rest and not to make
speeches. When Sir Alfred arrived in
London an unusually distinguished crowd
greeted him on the platform. The first
to seize his hand was Lord Salisbury, who
formally welcomed him. Then, in quick
succession, came Mr.. Chamberlain, Lord
Roberts, A. J. Balfour, Lord Halsbury,
Mr. Broderick, Lord Cranborn and other
cabinet ministers and half a hundred
dukes and earls and other personal
friends of lower degree pressed forward
to shake the high commissioner hands.
All remarked how well Sir Alfred was
looking. He chatted with Lord Sails
bury and Mr.. Chamberlain and then went
out of the station. A fair sized crowd
cheered him heartily. Sir Alfred left the
railroad station in a carriage and went
to see the king.
King Edward has elevated Sir Alfred
Miner to the peerage.

arrival here, said: -
"My VISIT to England is simply one of
recreation and has no connection with
business. I have no desire to do any
thing for steel trust shares. It is quite
certain, however. that these shares will
rapidly advance within a short time.
Firms forming the combination have
been making twenty-four million pounds
annually. Taking as basis their earn
ings for period of years a dividend Of
seven per cent is assured. The preferred
shares Of the trust regard as one of the
best investments that could be made.
They are shares which will be put away
in boxes as securities as they are on a
perfectly sound base annd the right men
have control of the corporation.
Regarding railroad matters I think
both Atchison and Union Pacifics are
certain to advance in value.
"The country is experiencing an era Of
great prosperity. The new find of oil
in Texas is a highly promising one and
will add to the national resources. The
chief flow Of oil is at Port Arthur, Tex

will eventually acquire holding there"

Philadelphia, May 24.-The debate on
creed revision was continued by the
Presbyterian general assembly today,
and Cavalry church was unable to con-
tain the throngs that came to hear the
discussion.
Moderator Minto said he had found
the sentiment of the assembly in favor
of full and fair presentation of the
question, but suggested that the COM
missiOners endeavor as far as possible
to adhere to the rule of brevity espe-
cially as the great ground had been
staked out by the able speakers of yes
terday.
Rev. David S. Kennedy of Allegheny,
Pa, yielded the floor to Judge e. w. c..
Humphrey of Louisville who signed the
minority report with DR.. McKibben.
Judge Humphrey urged the eliminate

clause recommending a brief summary
Of the reformed faith bearing the same
relation to the confession which the
shorter catcheism bears to the larger
catechism, and formed on the general
model of the concensus creed. He
claimed it meant practically a new creed
and should not be concurred in, as the
Presbyteries did not desire new con-
fession. DIR. Kennedy followed with a
forceful argument against revision. The
way to break down the confession, final
ly, he said, is to go on making holes

FISH BAIT IS The TROUBLE
If They Sell It to United States They
Will Lose Their Own Fish Market
The Alaskan Boundary Is Interest
ing Our Northern Brethren, and
Must Soon Be Settled.
(By Associated Press,)

Ottawa, Ontario, May 24.-The leader
of the opposition in the house last even
ing asked for information respecting
the announcement that the Joint high
commission was shortly to resume it's
sittings. Sir Wilfred Laurier said he
had reason to believe the sittings would
be resumed. 1t was desirable to bring
matters to an issue of some kind.
He said the Alaskan boundary had
not been eliminated but was in the very
T forefront Of the negotiations. In JUS
tice to Canada and in justice to New
foundland it was necessary that the
commission should resume. If the sit
tings failed. Canada would have to con-
slider the question of revising it's rela-
tions with Newfoundland.
He also said it was important for all
concerned that the Alaskan boundary
should be definitely settled. If the COM
mission failed to reach a settlement,
and the American and the Canadian
contentious were so far apart that the
premier did not see any assurance that
a settlement would be reached, and if
a fair compromise could not be arrived
at, then there must be arbitration.
Fish Bait Privileges Valuable.
The objection to the Bond Blaine
treaty. which is causing considerable
discussion by Canada. is that It gives
to the United States fishing vessels the
privilege of entering the waters of New
foundland and purchasing bait at all
times and on the same terms as New
foundland vessels.
In return, the United States, gives free
admission to Newfoundland fish. This
will prove. so it is said disastrous to
Canadian fishing.
1t appears from Hhe announcement Of
the deputy governor OF, Newfoundland
that the government will introduce i'm
portant railway legislation during the
session. A revision of the tariff Is prom

San Francisco, May 24-Secretary
Cortelyou this morning made the follow
ing statement concerning the plans of

The departure for Washington on Sat-

FORM A COMBINE.
ALARMED OVER OUR SUCCESS
Petty Jealousies Will Be Swallowed Up
in the General Fear of American
Commercial Domination-We Must
Arrange Truce or Have a Fight
With Whole World.
(By Associated Press.)

New York, May 24.-Generai' Manager
Gustave H. Schwab Of the North Ger
man-Lloyd Steamship company in
the last two and half months and who
returned home on the Kaiser Wilhelm
der Crosse, in an interview upon busi-
ness conditions in Europe, said:
while in Europe, especially in Ger
many and England, saw that the busi-
ness men there were much disturbed
over the increasing competition from
this side and seemed to fear the increase
in power of Industrial combinations,
The alarm is SO great that am certain
that some scheme Of self protection on
the part of the governments affected will
undoubtedly be perfected.
"Of course there are great difficulties
to bet met in forming an industrial and
commercial combination against the
United tSates, but there is every reason
to believe that efforts-efforts that may
have serious consequences to the trade
of this country-wll be made.
Concede Something or Fight.
IT heard similar talk in Germany.
which resulted in my becoming firmly
convinced that commercial peace be-
tween this country and European ma
tions imperatively calls for certain
concession on our part, without effecting
our own industries.
Unless we do make some kind of con-
cession, Europe will. as sure as fate.
ltt some kind of restraint duty on
American products"
Referring to the reported steamship
combination effected by ]. Pierpont
Morgan, Mr.. Schwab said:
''The British public is giving a lot of
concern but to the average steamship
man who understands the situation, it
does not seem to be nearly so dangerous
as some people think. AS an American,
speaking as the agent of German trans
Atlantic lines, do not think the report
ed amalgamation will effect the con-
tinental lines. Germany will certainly
keep abreast of the times.

movements is likely to be made. This
morning President Mckinley took
breakfast at the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
George E. Morse. Here he met a few
friends of Mrs. Morse, who is hts niece,
The remainder of the forenoon was de-
voted to the consideration of affairs Of
state. At noon the consular corps was
received at the Scott residence and
after lunch the president attended a re-
ception rendered by the Sons and
Daughters of the Revolution and the
Loyal Legion at the Palace hotel.
This was quite brief and at its con-
clusion the president was driven to the
United States transport dock where he
boarded the tug Golden Gate and crossed
the bay to Oakland. Here he passed
through the principal streets and re-
viewed thousands of school children who
were lined along the sidewalks. Each
boy and girl carried an American flag
and the presidents welcome was ex-
tremely enthusiastic. On returning to
the city the president will proceed di-
rcctly to his home, where he will pass
the evening quietly with Mrs. McKin-
Icy. He will retire early in order to OBJ
tain needed rest before beginning the
bomeward trip tomorrow.

No such question as is now presented

AL duties, impOsts and excises shall be

the court holds, was placed in the con-

This rule of uniformity was made pri-

holds, not for territories then possessed

as all duties on imports are uniformly
imposed at all the ports throughout the

The advantage Of this uniformity may
be extended to territories and possession
