DID NOT ASK AID
 OF UNITED STATES
THE TRiBuNA, AN ARGENTINE PAPER, DENIES STORY THATITs GOVERNMENT ASKED GOOD OF FIcEs OF UNITED STATES.

New York, December 14-According to the Herald's Buenos Ayres Argentines correspondent, official reports give the following account concerning the offer of mediation by the United States:
 The United States minister in Santiago informed his government that President Riesco was disposed to accept mediation. Secretary Hay thereupon instructed Minister Lord here to extend the good officers to Argentine.
 Minister Lord conferred with the for eign minister, Senor Alcorta, who de- clared that he did not believe 1t oppor- tune to accept foreign mediation at the present time.

BIRMINGHAM GETS CONNECTS.
Alabama Manufacturing Company Will
 Work Eighty of Them.

Montgomery. December 14.-(Special.)- Forty convicts were sent from the walls at Speigners yesterday to the Alabama Manufacturing Company at Birmingham. These convicts have been leased by the Birmingham concern to work in their hol- lowware plant located at North Birming- ham. This concern has leased eighty con victs, but were only ready for forty of them this week.
 President Carmichael of the convict bureau said this morning that no protest had been filed in his offias against the leasing of the convicts to the Birmingham company and he seemed greatly surprised when informed that an attempt would probably be made to enjoin the officers of the company from the use of convict labor.

London, December 4.-The most talked of man in England today is Lord Rose berry. In anticipation of his speech on Monday, Chesterfield Is filling up with special correspondents, who send long dis patches describing the ferment and local excitement
 No one seems to have the faintest idea of what Lord Roseberry is likely to say. His cryptic forecast of his intentions have gradually raised public curiosity to a fever heat.
 It is rumored that Lord Roseberry in tends at least laying the foundations of a new party, which will have himself, Sir Edward Grey, Herbert H. Asquith and Sir Henry H. Fowler as it's shining stars.

An American Canal.
Philadelphia Times.

From the Philadelphia Times.
 Senator Morgan, whose vigilance Is never relaxed when the interests of the interoceanic canal are concerned, seized a parliamentary opportunity on Satur- day and got the Hepburn canal bill back into its place before the Senate as un- finished business. This accomplished. 1t was laid aside fir the Qualifications bill, but MT. Morgan had established his es- sential point, that the legislation of Con- gross shall not be hindered by waiting upon the wishes of another government.
 The Alabama Senator differs from most of the Congressional advocates of an American canal in that he Is in earn est and really wishes to have the canal built. He has been devoted to this object for many years and has been consistent in his attitude throughout. He has never admitted that 1t was necessary for the United States to ask the permission of any foreign power to undertake this great work, except the Republic of Costa Rica and Nicaragua, the owners of the soil While he favored the Hay-Paunce- fote agreement, with or without the Sen ate amendments. because, as he says, '1t removes possible objections that may arise from the Clayton-Bulwer treaty in

sive terraces cor structed some years ago. This work will include d new portico and South of the central section. There will be a colonnade of twenty-slx columns of the same style as on the East and in the wlnes.
 The proposed work includes a renova- ton of the rotunda by completely re- building the wall in marble up to tho present cornice, the historical paintings to be enclosed in marble frames The whole interior of the dome will be redec- orated at a cost of about $276.ee0. Tho roof of the old building will be taken off and freproof roof put on.
 If these Improvements are all made 1t will necessitate removal from the cap itol building of the power, lighting and heating plant now in the basement As a part of the work 1t Is proposed to put mp an additional building on ground now owned by the government adjacent to and South of the capitol grounds, which will have a classic front and cost about $70oo GOO It will be used as document stor- age quarters and to accommodate new power, heating and lighting plant There will be rooms in this building also for members of Congress who have no com mittee rooms in the capitol building. It will be connected with the capitol by tunnel large enough to run a tram car through for carrying documents. fuel or anything else that may be necessary. This will do away with the present prac- tice of making the entrance to the capitol a dumping ground for wood. coal. ashes, waste paper, documents and other mat ter of this character.

 The picture is one of a few copies in existence and is the property of Thomas '. Walter. the well known architect of this city. a grandson of the famous man.
 When Mr Walter built the wings of the capitol and the dome, which took fifteen years. from 1851 to 1866, and brought the cost of this grand structure Up to S15, 5,000,0 eco, he planned also an ex- tension of the old building on the East which would bring the total cost up to $90, COG, coo when completed The plan did not contemplate removing, changing or covering up the walls of the old building but provided for grand extension, sim liar In style to the wings. For preparing the original plans and specifications ac- cordng to the demands of the present time the sundry civil bills contains an item of $1,500 upon which the architect of the capitol. Edward Clark, and his as- sistant, Elliott Woods, are now working If these plans meet with the favor of Congress 1t Is expected that next session an appropriation of something over A,- 000, GOO will be made to carry out the work.

The principal Inc of the portico will be 12O feet from the line of the old building The center section will have a frontage of 190 feet and the frontage of the main section will be 952 feet. Along the front of the center and main sections will be Il col onnade of fifty-two columns, of exact size and style of those In the wings.
 There will be a grand tier of stone steps in the approach to the second floor and entering the extension the vis itor will pass into q vcstlbule 30 feet wide and 106 feet long entirely of marble, in the approach to the rotunda of the dome. At right angles with this a mar ble hall will extend the whole length of the structure, nearly 250 feet long. In this vestibule and hall will be arranged in pairs Greek Cornthian columns ex- tending to the roof The extension will contain sixty-six large rooms, not in eluding storage rooms and cellar. and in the North and South ends suites of large rooms will be built for the use of import ant committees. There will be elevators next to the rotunda entrance and others conveniently located in the ends of the extension.

 These views are freshly set forth In a forceful report which Senator Morgan has lately presented, a minority If the committee on foreign relations. It refers to the agreements made between the United States and Costa Rica and Nicaragua in regard to future negotia- tons for the construction of the Nica- rauga Canal. These preliminary agree ments are substantially In accord with the provisions of the Hepburn bill. and Senator Morgan points out that In their negotiation the President has assumed precisely the ground for which he con tends. that the pending diplomatic situa- tion Is no obstacle to the independent ac- tion of the United States.
 It Is probable that Senator Morgan does not expect the canal bill to pass at this session, but that will not be his fault, and he has at least made clear his dis sent from having Congress, as he ex- pressed 1t on Saturday, Kicked and cuff ed about by King Edward VII" It is encouraging to know that the spirit of

But 1t was never necessary to any policy of the Unite States and its failure will leave the rights of this country none less clear. Congress may see fit to defer definite action on the canal, If delay Is believed best for the interests of the United States. To wait for the consent of the British govern ment to consider the matter is a degree of subservence not to be endured.

 Where will the financial expansion of Wall street and its Himalayan money kings stop?
 Even the oldest Wall street veterans like Russell Sage and Deacon White, are amazed at the colossal juggernaut of wealth rolling up In the banks.
 The Financier yesterday pointed out the fact that, within the last four years the national banks of this city have in- creased their deposits 10l per cent, amounting to s550. .643, 200.
 Business men will tell you that this stu pendous amount has been drained from the heart of the nation and placed in the hands of the men who are using it to form trusts and combinations.
 One bank alone has gained BPS, ,S65, ,100 another s67.79s9 300, and three others more than SAP, 600, 900 each And yet there are

 Four years ago the heaviest total of de- posits by New Tirk bank was about $42, GOO, GOO. At the present time there are seven banks which exceed this figure, and one of these has a record of $171, 100000.
 The enormous increase is mainly con fined to those banks In which the trust magnates are deeply interested.
