THE MONTGOMERY THEATRE.
MT. Frederick Summerfield in "A
 Poor Relation"

"A Poor Relation at the Montgomery Theatre last night was not greeted by a large audience but those who were pres ent appeared to be greatly pleased with the production which has several times been seen in Montgomery.
 MT. Frederick Summerfeld. who is play ing the difficult role of Noah Vale this season. loses 6v comparison with Mir. Frank Keenan, who was seen here last season. Mir. Summerf1eld does not possess the necessary physique. He is actor and in the heavier shading he is good. Versatility is the essential for the part and in this MT. Summerfield is lacking. He was perhaps seen at his best in his soliloquY upon his misfortunes in the third act
 The supporting company as whole is good Miss Newman could greatly inn prove the part of Mrs. Warriner by doing less acting. Miss Vaughan made much of Dolly Fave the ingenue role. She is a sprightly little woman with a good voice, a pretty face ard figure and an intelli- gent idea of the part.
 The children. Margaret Mckinley and little Velma. are cute little tots and played their parts better than one expects of stage children.

DUN's TRADE REVIEW.
No Occasion for Anxiety Regarding
 the Situation.

NEW YORK. Oct. 25-R. G. Dun & Co. s weekly review of trade tomorrow will say: With mills, shops. factories and furnaces as- sured of full operation until the end of the year as rule and ao1 many contracts M GU aireaoy for anxiety regarding the industrial situation. Jobbers are still urgently asking prompt de liveries by manufacturers of staple lines. while opening transactions in fancy goods for the holidays are unusually early, showing that tribution of heavy weight wearing apparel and other reasonable goods Is checked by tardi- ness of low temperatures which is extremely fortunate in many cases where makers have been unable to fl orders according to specih- cations. Prices of commodities rule firm an1 payments coming forward promptly now that the tardy cotton crop has begun to move freely.
 Each week the situation as to iron and steel becomes more encouraging. orders now run ming to the middle of eo2 in many finished ment in finished products and higher prices are anticipated. Coke ovens are active and the output is large. but lack of cars and mo tive power restrict shipments. Coal deliveries are similarly retarded.
 Eastern makers of boots and shoes still engaged on late orders for Winter goods and contracts come in freely from the West for Spring lines. Prices are unchanged. but the rise in leather makes 1t difficult to defer ad- vances while distant contracts are not sought at current rates.
 In woolen goods conditions quiet count of the warm weather. but mills are fully occupied and producers of knit goods have orders for some time. In cotton goods the situation is disturbed by the action of a large manufacturer. who advanced wages 5 per cent. a short time ago, and again this week announced 5 per cent. rise to go into ef- feet Nov. A.
 More satisfactory prices are received by do- nestle wheat growers. last years figures be- ing surpassed. notwithstanding the largely in- creased yield harvested. Smaller crops of other cereals and hay caused the use of much wheat in fattening live stock, and with lard more than cents above last years prices and mess pork S3 a barrel higher this has been a most profitable proceeding. Foreign buying Is also heavy, exports for the week, including flour, amounting to 4,S94. oS8 bush els against :. 934, 26o last year and 3, SS, ,492 in 1896. There is also tendency to hold back for still higher quotations. as indicated by Western receipts of only 6, 82, 393 bush els, against 7.4l I.o57 bushels year ago
 Corn supported by estimates of re duced yield in Roumania and a splendid in crease in Atlantic exports to .l94 0o9 bush els against 5ol.l35 in the prece'ling wee' but the current outgo Is trifing compared with 2,7l6.582 bushels last year and 3554.4l3 two years ago.
 Cotton lost part of the recent advance, ow ing to heavy port receipts and the failure of frost to appear early as expected. PicL ing progresses rapidly and a good yield is al most assured
 Failures for the week numbered 24o in the United States against POS last year and 20 ir Canada. against 29 last year.

MONOPOLY OF COAL IMPORTS.
British Consul at Marseilles Fears
American Competition.

American Competition.
London, Aug. 8.-The British con-
sular report regarding trade at Mar
settles just issued, declares that the
most vital competition from British
viewpoint is the determined attempt
OF the United States to obtain a mo-
nopoly Of the coal imports of the port.
Consul says it is impossible to say how
much general activity in Marseilles
in the future will be due to American
activity and enterprise, but it is sure
that large share of commercial ac-
t1vity both at Marseilles and the south
of France generally will be absorbed
by the United States and a considera-
BILE portion Of it at the expense of the
United Kingdom, until British traders
wake up to the danger and fight it by
combination.
"A great coal combine Is contem-
plated" the report adds. without it
American coal will surely share the
market, but will not be able to entire
ly oust British coal. 1t will be simply
question of freights and quality,
both of which are against the United
States, but the proposed combination
looks dangerous"

Nevada Senator Predicts Ohio Mans
Nomination.
Washington, Aug. S.-Senator Stew
art of Nevada in an interview said:
'In my opinion Senator Hanna will
be nominated by the Republican party
for president in 1904. He seems to
have the best chance thus far of any
Of those mentioned, and I believe the
more the people understand him the
better they will like him. Mr.. Hanna
Is broad-minded citizen and is thor
oughly capable in every respect of
handling the affairs of the executive
Office. He is much stronger than he
is given credit for by certain people,
and in the campaign developments of
the past four years demonstrated that
he is one Of the ablest men in the
country. I think he would make
great candidate and look for his NOM
5ination. Personally have no prefer
ence. Mr. Fairbanks is one of my
friends, and he would also make a
good president, but he is not so we'll
known to the people as Mr.. Hanna.
So it is with the other men named in
connection with the nomination"

RATCHED IN PRISON..
Recently ParoIed convicts Suspected
* of Gold Robbery. IT,.

-. O.,
San Francisco, Aug. S.-Practically
no clue has been obtained to the per-
petrators Of the $2So,000 gold robbery
at the Selby smelling works. ''
Strong efforts are being made to
learn the movements of recently pa
rolled convict. The police believe that
the plot was Matched in the state pris-
on at San Quentin and call attention
to the fact that another ex-convict
was seen in the neighborhood of the
smelling works Immediately after his
release from the San Quentin prison.
The paroled convict whom the detec-
tives suspect was in prison when the
other convict was released. Upon his
being paroled he also appeared in
Crockett, remained several days and
then disappeared. 1t is said that the
paroled suspect was employed years
ago at the Selby works. Afterwards
he kept a saloon and lodginghouse at
Crockett, which was frequented by
Selby's employees. For engaging in
Two shooting scrapes he received 25
years in the penitentiary.
No vessel except the schooner DC.
c1dental, bound for Eureka, is known
to have passed out of the Golden Gate
on Monday night and she sailed from
Sausaulito, on the north side of the
bay.
At first it was considered certainty
that the gold was removed by boat
but this is now doubted, as the thieves
left a suspicious trail to the waters
edge. The place where lookout
might have been stationed has been
found on a hill above the works.
Here several empty cartridge boxes
were found. Officials Of the smelling
company declare that none of the EN-.
ployes is suspected of completely in
the crime.

at a loss to understand the reasons for
the reported refusal Of the English
minister to sign the protocol. 1t is ex-

be heard from very fully On the sub
ject in case the delay BODIES any Sc

agreed on that it is not apprehended
that the present delay will affect any
Of the vital features of the agreement.

DECLINE in DIVIDENDS.
All English Railroads Have Had Bad
Year.


New York, Aug. 8.-According to
The Tribune's London correspondent,
with the exception Of the Great West
ern, all the leading English railway
companies have now issued their re-
ports for the last half year and the
results are about on lines expected by
those who have carefully watched
trade conditions of the last six
months. Industrial activity has con-
tracted and there has consequently
been marked falling off in goods and
general traffic. All lines show heavy
declines in their dividends. Since
1895 the capital of British railways
has increased by the sum Of 75,O00,-
900, the greater part of which ought to
have come out of the earnings. It is
considered that the British railway
managers and directors ought to fol-
low the American system of not pay
ing the last penny in dividends, but
at present the tendency is to borrow
money for even small improvements.

NARSH|P DEEMED NEEDFUL'
Reasons for the Ordering of the Gun
boat Machias to the Coast of
Colombia.
Result Of Report From Consul That
Revolutionists are Active Near
Panama City.
Should Serious Interruption OF Traff c
Occur Marines will be Sent
Ashore.

Washington, Aug. S.-An order was
issued by the acting secretary of the
navy during the day for the gunboat
Machias, now at the Boston navyyard,
to proceed without delay to Hampton
Roads and there to prepare for de-
parture to Colon, near the eastern ter
minus of the Panama railroad. At the
navy department it is explained that
this movement has been ordered with
view Of having the Machias take OBJ
servations in the vicinity of the 18TH
mus. In announcing the action of the
department it was officially stated that
'it is deemed needful that a United
States war vessel be in that vicinity
at this time"
The order to the Machias followed
conference held at the navy depart
ment between Acting Secretary Of
State Adee and Acting Secretary of
the Navy Hackett. Mr.. Adee had the
dispatch received from Consul Gurger
stating that the revolutionists had held
up a train for an hour at Marachin,
on the line Of the railroad across the
isthmus, and only about Is miles from
Panama City. While this was not re-
garded as threatening an interruption
of traffic or giving any ground for
Intervention by the United States,
yet it was deemed advisable by the
officials that one of our ships should
be in the neighborhood in order that
suitable observations could be made
and steps taken to meet any serious
emergency that might arise. For the
present officials do not believe that
there will be any need of landing ma
rines.
The commander of the Machias
Lieutenant Commander Mason Ser
geant, Is regarded as an officer of tact
and ability. and, besides this, he has
had recent experience in West Indian
waters, having been in command OF
the Scorpion when she made her re-
cent trip to La Guaira to keep watch
on American interests in Venezuela.
The Machias is a gunboat of Lit
tons displacement, with twin screws
and good steam capacity. She has
eight 4-inch guns in her main battery
six rapid-firers, and one automatic
gun. Her run to the isthmus depends
somewhat on the length of her stay at
Hampton Roads, but it is believed she
will be ordered to proceed with little
or no delay, in which case the trip will
take about 10 days or two weeks.
