ENTERPRISE HOME AGAIN.

Boston, Oct. 22.-The nautical train ing ship Enterprise ended it's annual summer cruise this morning after q record breaking run from Madeira. the last foreign country visited. The schoolship sailed from F'unchal. ma- deira. on September 21 and anchored off Minot's Light at o'ciocK last night. waiting for daylight before pro ceeding into the harbor. Thus the run of 1896 miles was made in twenty-nine days, better record than the Enter prise ever made before.
 Had it not been for a strong north easter off Madeira, which lasted four days, she undoubtedly would have shortened this time by two days more. It is customary for her to proceed to Marblehead instead of entering Boston at the end of the summer cruise, but for the last two months her command er, F.. NJ. Hughes, U. s.

TWO YOUTHS TO BE HANGED.

Harrisburg, Pa, Oct. 22.-When the case of Henry Rowe and Watson Keip- CT, convicted of the murder of Cashier Ryan of the Halifax National bank. is called for argument for a new trial be- fore the supreme court at Pittsburg. notice will be given that the case has been abandoned. This proceeding will leave their fate in the hands of the governor. who will soon fix the time for their deaths. The reasons for the aban- donment of the case are insufficient funds to prepare the facts properly for submission to the supreme court and the belief that it is hopeless to apply for a new trial.
 Rowe and Keiper murdered Cashier Ryan last April during a daylight at tempt to rob the bank. They were cap tured immediately and after a short trial were declared guilty. Each is un- der twenty years of age.

EIGHTEEN STATES
Reprtsented at the Gathering Whose Beneficial Consequences to the Western Continent Can Hardly be observation-disclosures of the Results Which are Looked for With Great Confidence by People of This Country.

City Of Mexico. Oct. 22.-rhe great Pan-American congress. the impor- lance of which can hardly be oVeresti- mated, IS m session. The formal open ing took place today in the hall of the national palace set aside for the pur- pose. The hall accommodates but POO persons and as the delegates number more than 100 there was little room fo- the general public.

 The countries officially represented at the congress are the United States, Uruguay, Venezuela. Salvador. Peru. Paraguay. Nicaragua, Mexico, Peru. duras. Hayti. Guatemala, Ecuador, Costa Rica. Colombia. Brazil. Chili, Bolivia and the Argentine Republic The opening proceedings were entirely formal. The addresses of welcome were delivered by Senor General Don Manuel G. Cosio, secretary of the in terior of the Mexican government, and Senor Don Joaquin Baranda, secretary of justice and pulic instruction. The speakers cordially welcomed the dele gates and in the course of their re- marks spoke eloquently of the glorious results to be obtained from peaceful assembly of representatives of all the republics of the western world.

WAR IN THE PHILIPPINES
It Will be Very Quiet but Effective
 Affair

Manila, Oct. 22-General Chaffee does not expect to hear of any extensive engagements in the island of Samar He believes the operations there will not result in an open fight. 1t is hard to find armed Fiiipinos. Every man without an occupation will be com pelled to go into the towns. IL is re- ported that all the rifles captured by the Filipinos at Balangiga are now in the island of Leyte. where many bolo- men have gone from Samar. In fact. Leyte is as disturbed as Sauar.
 The object of the endorsements of American troops now being pushed forward is to increase all the garri- sons to thirty-eisht men. Some of them until recently, numbered only eight men. The endorsements will also allow the detailing of working forces to operate in the field, hunting insurgents.
 General Wheaton reports that band of bolomen entered Tarlac, in the province of Luzon, through the Bulan- gan province; that the men composing it are distributing infiammatory bulle- tins. which were posted on the church doors. warning the people to prepare to take the field in January.

ORDERS FOR RAILS
The Pool Has 750,0 ,000 Tons
 Booked for Delivery
Manufacturers Feel Confident That They Will Have Sufficient Busi- ness Placed Before December l to Guarantee Steady Work.

New York. Oct. 22.-A representative of one of the largest steel rail produc- ing plants, who is familiar with the operations of the various concerns in cluded in the steel rail pool, today said that the orders already booked for de- livery in 1902 were larger in the aggre- gate than ever before in the history of the industry.
 It is said that the amount of busi- ness placed for 1909 amounts to some thing like 75O.OOO tons Many of the largest railroads have not yet com pleted their estimates for next year, and manufacturers feel confident that by the latter part of next month suffi- cient business will have been booked to guarantee steady work for their plants all through 1902.
 Steel rail manufacturers are not dis posed to venture estimates as to the possible production Of steel rails next year. Many of them. however. are of the opinion that the output will not be greatly in excess of the current year. The Lackawana Iron and Steel com pany will begin to move it's plants to Buffalo as soon as this years business is cleared from it's books, and naturally its production will be curtailed in con- sequence.
 The Lackawana company is one of the largest steel rail producing con cerns in the country It has a capacity of something like 300. 900 tons a year.
 The curtailment in the production of the latter company will be offset to some extent by the increased steel rail output of the Tennessee Coal and Iron company. It will be well into next year, however. before the maximum capacity of the last two named con cerns will have been reached. The Col orado Fuel and Iron company has com pleted additions to it's works that will enable it to turn out 100. .0o9 tons more rails than heretofore.
 The Tennessee Coal and Iron com pany's steel rail plant, which is near ing completion. will turn out in the neighborhood of 100. 900 tons per annum
 The Pennsylvania Railroad company having acquired a controlling interest in the Cambria Steel company. and the Pennsylvania Steel company has made itself independent in the matter of steel rail supplies. The combined output of these two concerns is something like 1000. coo tons. although their actual figure.
 Practically all the big railroad com panies, including the Gould. Morgan Hill and Vanderbilt systems. have placed orders for steel rails for deliv- cry next year, although many of them will not place the bulk of their busi- ness until later in the year. The price of steel rails remains at S2S a ton, and it is believed no change in the immedi- ate future is in prospect.

SUGAR CROP IN TEXAS
Engaging in the Industry on
 an Extensive Scale
The State Farms Being Converted Into Great Saccharine Stations. A Convict Movement Started Two Years Ago.

St. Louis, Oct. 22.-The state of Texas is going into the sugar producing in dustry on an extensive scale. In addi- tion to her present sugar cane growing interests. which are operated under the state penitentiary system, arrange ments are being made to place about 5000 additional acres in cultivation.
 About two years ago farm embrac- ing o,OOO acres was purchased by the state on which penitentiary convicts were to be worked. This farm is situ- ated in Brazoria county, in the richest sugar cane belt of Texas. Owing to the lack of a sugar mill but little of the new farm was placed under culti- vation.
 At the recent session of the legisla- ture. authority was granted for the immediate erection of a sugar mill on this farm. the same to be paid for out of the proceeds of the farms crops of the ensuing two years. The peniten- tiary board has taken steps toward the early construction of this mill It is estimated that it will cost about SI75,- coo. It is proposed to have it ready for taking care of the farms crop of cane next year.
 The convict contract system is being done away with as rapidly as possible. It is found that the convicts can be utilized to better advantage and greater profit derived from their ser vices when they are employed on farms owned by the state; also. that they do not come into competition with honest labor when they are worked on farms
 At present hundreds of able bodied convicts are leased by railroad and coal mining companies. They are poorly fed and receive harsh treatment in many instances.
 There are about four thousand con- victs in the two Texas state prisons. ana under the present management they are self sustaining By giving more of them employment on state farms they will bring a profit to the state considerably above the expense for their maintenance

A THEATER PANIC
Which the Actors With Presence of
 Mind Tried 10 Subdue.

Louisville, Ky, Oct. 22.-During the performance at the Masonic Temple theater this afternoon a polyscope used in showing pictures between acts ex- ploded. A stampede followed in which five persons were seriously hurt, and fifteen or twenty others more or less injured. The place was crowded at the time. but was emptied in a few mo- mentS.
 It was about 3:30, just after the first act of 'Tennesse's Partner" when the polyscope was being gotten ready that a little flash of flame came and caused the panic. Many women and children, who mainly composed the audience, made a rush for the doors. A panic seized the gallery. In a mo- ment the occupants were plunging down the stairs, or taking a swifter method of climbing down into the aud itorium. In their haste many fell. land ing on those beneath and several were badly hurt in this way. The attaches of the theater attempted to stop the mad rush. The band played and a member of the company danced. This had the effect of quieting those near est the stage. The great crush occur red where the steps came down from the gallery. Here the two crowds met and were packed into 2 space not large enough for half of them.

BIGGEST FOR THREE YEARS.
Three Estimates on Worlds Wheat
 Crop Agree on That.

Washington, Oct. 22.-The depart ment of agriculture announces that the three most important estimates of the worlds wheat crop of 1901 so far made agree that the crop is larger than that of either of the two preceding years. The estimates follow: Hungarian min istry of agriculture, 2,671. .360000 bush els of 50 pounds; Beerbohm's Corn List of London, 2.711. 600, 900 bushels of 60 pounds. and Bulletin des Halles of Paris. 2,790.31O.OoO Winchester bushels. Our department withholds it's opinion as to the degree in which the worlds crop has been approximaIed in any of these estimates until a considerably larger number of officiaI returns i5 available. The principal increase Is credited to the United States, Canada and India.
