the steamer Suningdale on the after

peared to have been in collision. She
was picked UP by the tug Mum early
yesterday and reached the breaIWater
today. The captain of the Mum re-
ports that the Knowles had evidently
been in collision with another craft.
1t is the general belief in shipping
circles that the crew of nine men has
been lost, but the owners Of the
Knowles cling to the belief that the
vessel which was in collision with the
schooner has picked up the crew and
that the men viii be landed at some
foreign port.

of the commissions report to the con-
stitutional convention. There are many
political jealousies among the Cubans
at home and General Wood said that
anything made public at this time
might be liable to misconstruction and
lead to friction. General Wood, how
ever, does not hesitate to state that
the Cubans have been impressed with
the treatment they have received and
the attentions shown them and to say
that undoubtedly they return with a
more correct understanding of the
meaning of the terms of the Platt
amendment and of the sincere desire
of the American government to put
Cuba on her feet as an Independent
government, than they had before.

AUSTRIA AND MEXICO
Diplomatic Relations Established for
First Time Since Macmillan Affair

Washington. April PA complete
rapproachment between the govern
ments of Austria and Mexico has been
brought about and. as a result, each
country is about to send a minister to
the other.
This terminates an international es-
arrangement dating from the days when
young Maximilian Of Austria sought to
gain a foothold in Mexico and lost his
life in the adventure. Ever since
then Austria and Mexico have sus-
pended all intercourse with each other,
commercially and politically.
Recently. however. friendly overtures
have been made to terminate the es-
arrangement and have resulted in a sat-
isfactory agreement between them by
which their old relations of friendship
will be resumed.
A bill has passed the Mexican con-
gress reciting the fact of a rap
proachment and providing for a min
lister to Austria at a salary of $500
annually. Austria will take similar
action by sending a minister to Mexico
and this will close the long and histor-
ic separation.

Joins in the Students Singing and
Beer Drlnkiug-His Night Surprise
Visit to n Naval Training Ship at Kiel
Among Sleeping Cadets-A Young
ster's Ready Reply.

London, April 27.-All accounts agree
that Emperor William thoroughly en-
joyed himself at Bonn, and among the
students of his old corps he became a
student again. The emperor wore the
white cap and across his breast the
black and white ribbon of the Borus-
sia corps. His majesty himself took
command at the symposium, issued
orders in firm tone and led off the So
called Salamanders, the thunderous
rattling of bear mugs on the table when
the leading toast was proposed. He
also Joined heartily with a loud voice,
in singing students songs, bringing
down the fiat of his rapier, in the or
tholodoX fashion, with a crash on the
table at the end of each verse. The
proceedings reached a climax when his
majesty called for that grandest of Ger
man student songs "Landesvater'
CFather of the Country'O. At one of
the verses, in which the students swear
to live or die for king and county each
man crosses his rapier with that of the
man opposite him, and caps are taken
off and spitted on the rapier points, the
youthful crown prince crossed rapiers
with the aged General Won Loe, himself
an old Borussir.
An interesting story is told Of a sur
prise night visit paid by Emperor Will
liam to the training ship Charlotte
while al Kiel. The ship was anchored
in mid stream when the guard espied
| the emperor's pinnacle approaching
and a moment later the emperor was
| on deck, much to the surprise of the
| hastily awakened captain. His majes-
| ty then began a vigorous Inspection of
the ship. In the dormitory he was as
tonished to find the cadets asleep under
the glare of electric lights. IT scarcely
believed they are asleep under such
| light" said the emperor.
"They are tired after their days
| work. replied the captain. They
would sleep anywhere"
The emperor was still skeptical

awoke him.

The cadet, recognizing his questioner

iment.

ANOTHER CUT IN WAGES
Contemplated bv the Cotton Mills O
Fall River

Fall River, Mass, April 27.-The re-
duction in the price of printcloths has
not only made further eurtailment
probable, but a reduction in wages
possible. Today the margin between
the price at which cloth can be pro-
duced and sold is as low as it was when
the last reduction in wages was made
and when the price Of weaving was
lowered from 19 to Is cents per cut,
and other classes of textile work paid
upon that basis. The price paid for
weaving cloth today is the highest in
the history of the business and the
margin Of profit is as small as it ever
was. Under such conditions it is fear
ed that wages cannot be maintained
with any certainty for a definite Pc
riod Of time.
