the amount of business done, rang
ing from $3.50 down to $50, the lowest
amount, and then adding them all to-
gether the whole amounted to $4,000,
which sum total Mccartney said he
considered little enough for allowing

disapproved and objected to this
whole business; that a couple of days

$3.50 to be allowed to open, adding
that they did not believe they were
obliged to pay him anything. but that
they wished to be sociable; and Nc
Cartney told affiant that he held out
for $500. as he felt that 1t was so

TO $500. as the prisoners

ATTA(K ON GUARD
At M'K|NlEY'S GRAVE

Canton, Ohio. Sept. pa strange
story comes from Westlawn Cemetery
tonight where company of regulars
from Fort Wayne. Mich, is guarding
the vault in which the body OF the late
President Mckinley lies. 1t is to the
effect that the guard on duty on top
of the vault fred a shot at one man
who refused to heed his challenge:
that the gun was turned aside by Of 4.
other man who appeared from anoth.
er direction. and that an effort was
made to stab the guard.
Military regulations prevent either
the officers or the men of the post
from being quoted on any matter con.
nected with their service. and Tor
this reason Captain Biddle. who is in
command. was obliged to decline to ne
quoted at the camp tonight. He will
make full report to his superiors at
once.
Reliable authorities made the follow.
ing statement: Private Deprend was
on guard duty on top of the vault at
point commanding the entrance he.
low. shortly before 1880 o'clock he
saw .wnat he took to be the face of q
man peering from behind tree about
forty feet from his post. He watched
II for some minutes. he says, and at
TAB o'clock saw the man hurry to a
tree ten feet nearer. He ordered the
man to halt, but this was not heedei
and the fellow approached nearer. De.
prend leveled his gun and aimed TO
shoot for effect, but Just at that in.
slant another man. who came toward
him from the opposite side. caught
the gun. threw 1t up. and the bulls,
went into the air. This same man
struck Deprend on the right side OF
the abdomen with knife or other
sharp weapon, cutting an L-shape !
cash in his overcoat an inch and q
half long each way. and smaller one
in his blouse. The flesh was not bro.
ken, but was bruised under the cues
in the clothing.
Deprend, in the struggle, fell and
rolled down the side of the vault and
rushed to the top on hearing the shot,
but the men made good their escape.
All the members OF the company on
hearing the shot hurried to the vault.
and. besides searching the cemetery,
the guard was increased.

New York, Sept. 30.-Explanatory
OF the enlistment problem, the London
correspondent of the Tribune says;
The re.enlistment Of the imperial yeo.
men is not proceeding at rate To
suit the military authorities. Very
few sound men are forthcoming, ami
1t Is doubtful whether the order will
have any real effect. Numbers of IN,
fit men have offered to rejoin, but as
Lord Kitchener does not want them.
the War Office has mad to refuse the ir
services. During the last fourteen
days only 100 men have been re-en.
listed. The men of the old yeoman:y
do not think the terms, shillings q
day, good enough, as there Is no sep.
arate allowance for families. Medical
ly unfit yeomanry have been arriving
In shoals from South Africa, every
transport bringing some home. Out OF
10000 men, 1900 have been sent back
as useless. No doubt when the par
ties responsible for passing these men
are found censure will be very severe.

GERMAN LLOYD COMING
STEAMSHIPS MAY OPERATE IN A
MONTH.
Generally Reported in Oriental Ship
ping Circles That Famous Company
Is to Branch to San Francisco.

1t the rumor which is generally in
shipping circles in the Orient is correct,
the North German Lloyd Steamship
Company will have it's vessels running
here within thirty days. This news was
brought by the steamship COptic yester-
day The officers of that vessel are au-
thOrity for, this report which they as
sert, is generally current throughout
China
According to the report, the North
German Lloyd company had already be-
gun to advertise in the Chinese papers
of Tien Tsin and that district of their
intention to establish a regular line
across the Pacific, The route Will be
from the principal Chinese and jana
nese ports, touching at Honolulu with
the eastern terminus at San Francisco
The intention of that company is to
operate its vessels over probably the
longest route in the world. The vessels
now run from Bremen to the Orient and
according to the latest plans, the
routes of these steamships will be ex-
tended across the Pacific.
The vessels operated by the North
German Lloyd are famous the world
over The ships which now go to the
Orient are superior to those of any
other line, it is said, as they are much
larger and faster and are conducted
like the big Atlantic liners Ten thou
sand tons is the size of the boats which
are now on the Bremen China route
and when the extention across the Pa
cific is effected, they will be used. The
company at present operates a hi
monty service regularly and it may be
decided to increase the Pacific fleet in
order to give a semi-monthly service to
San Francisco.
Over a year ago, a report that the
North German Lloyd was to come here,
bapaD he discussed in shining cir
cles. At that time the matter was not
settled by any means, as the steamship
company had absolutely no railroad
connections across the American conti-
nent. Since then, the Atichson, To-
peka and Santa Fe railroad has Sc
cured a terminus at San Francisco.
This railroad is, it is reported to be the
railroad connection of the North Ger
man Lloyd and now that the steamships
of the German company have secured
connecting line, it is only a matter of
detail before they begin to operate.
Late Japanese and Chinese papers re-
ceived by the Coutic have no mention
