Window So That He May Be Ar

Attention in Jail.

Weak from illness and despondent,
Frank Wittig, former resident OF
Duluth, smashed the glass doors of
Kirk & Aliens hardware store at
Jamestown in order that he would be
arrested and when jailed receive
proper treatment. He was promptly
arrested and at hearing bound over
to the district court. Wittig says he
had been sick for three weeks and had
been bounded out of every town from
the western line of the state until he
had become desperate. He was placed
under a physicians care and if it is
found that his story is true he will
probably be released.

thing about "potting the Colon" when
the commodore went aboard the Mas.
sachusetts, May 81. and that he was
with the commodore at the time.
Describing the battle Of July s.
Mr.. Graham said that Commodore
Schley had gotten to position in
front of the coming tower as soon as
the nose of the first Spanish ship ap-
peared.

continuously to the right the three

commodore's Conduct July 8.
"The commodore" he said, STOOD
all the time on the side OF the fire so
that he could see what was doing. He
was absolutely cool and sent contiai-
uous messages to the men to cheer
them up. When Ellis head was shot
off he wiped some of the blood from
his own person and as the men picked
the body up to throw it overheard,
when the rest of us stood Mortified, he
calmly said: Don't thrown that body
over. Take it below and we will give
it Christian burial When the Wis
caya went ashore the commodore went
into the coming tower and himself
called down the tube to the men be-
low, They are all gone but one. It all
depends on you, boys
did you ever see Commodore
Schley when he appeared to be labor
ing under any mental excitement"
"Oh, no; he was jovial and good ma
tured at all times, and did not OBJ
serve the least trace Of excitement or
anxiety except at one time. That was
when it looked as If the Colon might
get away. He expressed fear that
that might occur and seemed much
concerned"
Dennis j. Cronin, an orderly to Com
modore Schley, corroborated Mr.. Ora
hams testimony regarding the con-
versation between the commodore and
Captain Sigsbee on May 26. 81,
Lieutenant Commander William r.
Rush. watch and division officer of the
Brooklyn, described the Brooklyn's s
"loop" and considered it a necessary
movement.
In reply to questions the witness
said he was inclined to think the Wis
caya had meant to ram the Brooklyn; !;
also he thought the Spanish ships had
not come out to exceed three-fourth of
a mile from the mouth Of the harbor.

Vienna, Oct. 23.-In the lower house

was thereby intended to establish the
theory that there was a difference in
The standing of the heads of state in q
republic and in a monarchy. The

TRADE IN PHILIPPINES.
Europeans Still Control the Greater
Portion of 1t.

Europeans Still Control the Greater
Portion of 1t.
New York, Oct. 23.-The Manila cor
respondent of The Journal of Com
merce sends the following details con-
corning the trade in the Philippines:
The invasion of the markets of the
Philippines by American products and
merchants is much less complete at
present than the invasion of the ISL
ands by American political ideas, but
there are indications that American
goods will come here in increasing
quantities within short time. Judg-
ing from the exterior of the shops,
American establishments are compar-
atively few, but judged from the in
terror, the feeling obtained by Ameri-
can goods is more obvious. One of the
difficulties with which Americans have
to contend in this market is the fact
that the established channels of trade
are with Spain, France, Germany and
Switzerland, rather than with Amer
ica. The great jewelry shops, the dry
goods stores, boots, shoes, hats and
all sorts of necessaries of civilized life
have done business for many years
with European exporters and are ia
miliar with their goods, system of
credit, methods of packing and freight
facilities. In textiles the Europeans
naturally enjoy some of the same ad
vantages which skill and long practice
gives them in the United States. The
members of the Spanish chamber of
commerce appreciate the fact that
new era is beginning in the islands.
Trade in many lines has been based on
the principle of charging what the
traffic will bear" rather than on the
minimum prices enforced by compe-
tition. Merchants have been content
with large profits on small sales rather
than small profits upon large sales.
All Ellendale man sold 1000 bushels
of potatoes at 80 cents per bushel be-
fore the bottom dropped out of the
price.

gers:
active insurrection in Samar. New
York leaves at once for Catbalogan
with 800 marines for Basey and Bal
angiga, to cooperate with army.
Nearly all naval force concentrated on

Naval officials construe the dispatch
to mean that the New York will go

of marines at each point.

OF his astro-physical observatory, and
there opened in the presence of several
savants invited to inspect the valuable
contents. The removal of the lid re-
vealed two small cylinders of straw

These phials had remained hidden
from light at least two months before
they had been opened. Brought to
the light, one was seen to contain a
white, starch-like powder, finely pull
verified; the other a similar substance,
broken up into little cubes about a
tenth Of an inch in dimension. Re-
turned to the darkness both bodies
continued to glow sufficiently bright
for page, held nearly, to be easily
read thereby. Yet the glass Of the

what the mysterious phials contained,
