Grim Signs of shipwreck.

The following tidings of the Inflated
ship Manchester, which sailed from
this port for Japan more than a year
ago, are from a copy Of the Japan Dali
ly Mail, just arrived from Yokohama:
News comes from Australia of the
finding on Bikar Island, n small un-
inhabited atoll of the Marshall group,
of w%reckage which is thought to indi-
cate that the British ship Manchester
came to grief there. Footprints and
marks of two boats keels on the sand
and other signs make it seem probable
that the captain and his wife and chill
dren and crew had been on the island,
! and, being unable to find water, had
pushed off again.
"There were footprints of a woman
and children plainly marked in the
sand. Also there were found bodies of
birds which had been sucked for blood
to allay thirst. A small schooner came
across these traces about three months
ago, and as no sign has been found of
the missing people since, it is supposed
that they died of thirst before reaching
inhabited islands. The body Of one
man was found in the scrub zeal the
shore.
"Many cases of kerosene we're scat
tered about the beach. The Manches-
ter, Capt. r. Clemens. left New York
loaded with kerosene for Yokohama a
year ago and has never been seen
since. She was a four-masted steel
ship of 2,S51 tons. "

Vital Principle of Reciprocity

Vital Principle of Reciprocity.
The industries of the United States
have been developed in the face of the
strongest opposition from competitors
who would have liked us to remain
tributary to their industries. In no
other way could this have been done
so quickly and effectively as by a tariff
which protected them from outside
competition until strong enough to
stand alone. And this should always
be borne in mind in making treaties of
reciprocity or they will prove more or
less disastrous to important industries.
1t will therefore require sound states
manship to put the principle Of reci-
procity into actual practice, and yet in
1ict no damaging blow to home indus

pie may depend for employment and

Any reciprocity plan which proposes
