RICHES OF GOLCONDA
American Possibilities Foreseen by Enthusi.
aStic Banker.

MILWAUKEE, Wis, Oct. 49,
The closing days session of the
American Bankers association
convention was devoted to a con-
tinuation of the discussion of
practical banking questions.
After a prayer by the Rev. j.
Beveridge Lee of Milwaukee,
President Trowbridge introduced
P. C. Kaufman of Tacoma,
Wash, who spoke on 1.-THE
Financial and Commercial Flu
ture OF the Pacific Coast"
Mr.. Kaufman said:
1.-The twentieth century opens
for the United States with its in
dustrial machinery adjusted to
the production of wealth on a
scale of unprecedented magni-
tude. The nations of Europe
and the world at large are con-
stantly becoming more and more
dependent upon US not only for
raw materials, but also for man
ufactured products; and it may
be confidently asserted that be-
cause OF our central position be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific
seaboards, because of our excel
lent transportation facilities. our
varied and inexhaustible re-
sources and the steadily increas-
ing dependence of the world
upon us for the necessities and
even many of the Injuries of'life,
the United States is destined to
be the greatest commercial power
of the commercial age, the TWEEN
tieth century. Our great trans
continental railroads are fully
awake to the situation and are
eplarging their facilities to
handle the great commerce OF
the future in the construction OF
immense warehouses and docks
and the establishment of great
steamship lines, operated IN close
connection and under their direct
supervision.
ITO obtain pre-eminence, the
United States must enter this
field of commercial activity

commerce of the Pacific, and the

INVADERS REACH SEA
Five Hundred Beers Penetrate to
Tidewater.
British Troops Harry the BurgherS but
Without Effect, Getting SHIPPED In
Return as They March.

CAPE Town, Oct. 18.-The in
vaders have reached the sea. a
commando of 500 men having
penetrated through the rich
Great Berg river valley to Hope
field and Saldanha bay, north
west of Cape Town. The repub-
licans have secured a number of
recruits and considerable quaint
ties of supplies. General French
is directing the operations
against them.
In a brisk fight at Twenty
Four Streams, near Picquetburg
Captain Bellew and four other
British were killed and several
others wounded.
The British having surprised
several camps, the Beers are
now in the habit of shifting camp
by night. Lately the British
columns after long night marches
have arrived at their detectives
only to find the Beers gone.
British columns penetrating
Orange River Colony miles from
the railways find fields Of maize
or freshly plowed lands, the
Beers making off at their APP
proach and returning when the
columns pass on. The herds on
the high veldt still seem to be
numerous. The Beers are living
on cattle and mealies stored in
out-of- the-way places.
A number of British columns
are operating in all the districts
of the Orange River Colony.
They are giving the Beers no
rest and are gathering in stock
and grain and a few prisoners.
Accommodating parties are con.
tinually sent IN all directions.
They occasionally locate few
Beers, who gallop off when dis
covered. They then hide and
snipe the British as they are re.
turning from their hard marches.
The columns are passing through
a difficult country in the south
eastern part of the colony. They
have found there that the Beers
have deserted their farms, taking
everything possible with them,
and are hiding in the mountains.

About Wood Pulp.

MUNCIE, Ind, Oct. 18-An of
fetal of the Muncie pulp manu-

the statement that the wood pulp
manufacturing concerns of the
country are soon to be merged
under one management. For ten
days eastern capitalists have
been visiting the pulp plants OF
the United States, being in Mum

have been refused the name of a
single man of the party of TWEEN
ty. Their trip covered twenty
days time and is to close in Con

feet wide, and ten feet high and
weighing about $50 tons, fell
with tremendous crash, almost
closing the tunnel and creating a
panic among the 200 or 800 men
at work. Great clouds of dust
filed the excavation. The fright
ened men made wild efforts to
escape, their cries adding to the
confusion and horror.
Word of the accident had been
quickly spread, and soon an
anxious crowd gathered around
the shaft, scores of men and
women weeping and wringing
their hands.
When the rescuing party be-
gan to remove the rock they
found the bodies under masses
of rock which could not be moved.
1t was the work of hours to drill
the holes and charge them. Last
night it was said that the fallen
mass of rock had been blown to
pieces and that no more bodies
had been found, and it is not be-
lieved that any more lives were
lost.

British are Too Slow.

LONDON, Oct, Is. = Lord
George Hamilton, secretary of
state for India, has written an
important letter to John George
Alexander Baird, Nj. P, member
of great Scotch iron firm, on
how to keep orders for locomo-
tives in England. Lord Hamil-
ton says the requirements of In
dia and South Africa in this line
are increasing greatly, and will
continue to do so. Orders have
gone to Germany and America
because the firms in those coun-
tries can deliver the engines
much quicker than the English
builders. Lord George Hamil-
ton says British manufacturers
must therefore increase their
means of production.

orient, both in our hands. fate or
kind Providence has given US
two most important and valuable
aids for the attainment of this
glorious goal.
1.-The question of the wisdom
of the policy of expansion has
been settled forever. 1t is no
longer even a debatable one. Our
flag has been raised in the Phil
ippines, and, thank God, it is
there to stay.
SIT takes no prophet to state
that if the people of the United
States will but awaken to full
realization of the grandeur of
their destiny and the greatness
of their opportunities they will
settle down to development of

Will Send Out Much Seed.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 80
The department of agriculture
has completed plans for the an
nual seed distribution through
out the country. Despite the
fact that double >the usual
amount of seeds are to be sent
out this winter, the preliminary
work is advanced much further
than in recent years. There will
be $1,000, 600 packets of seed DIS
tributed, comprising both vege-
tables and flowers. The depart
ment will begin sending out the
seeds about Dec. 1, and most OF
them will be furnished through
senators aud representatives.

KAISER'S WARNING
Sends Two Additional Warships to Venc-
zueIa for Redress.

BREMEN, Oct. 17.-Germany's
reply to Venezrela's attack last
week on German sailors is to be
the dispatching of the cruiser
Wake and another warship not
yet named to re enforce the large
cruiser Vineta, which is now in
Venezuela waters. At the ports
of Hamburg and Bremen, where
interest in Venezuela is chiefly
centered, the commercial and
sh piping classes, supported by
influential newspapers, are urg-
ing the imperial government in
strong terms to seize this long
awaited opportunity to obtain a
footfold of some sort in Central
America.
The necessity for aggressive
measures is emphasized all the
more, they assert, since the COZ
struction of the Nicaragua canal
is to be regarded as absurd 1t
is deeply regretted that the pre-
liminary arrangements between
the American and the British
governments have been conclud-
ed without providing for interna-
tional control or for a guaranty
of neutrality.
1t was hoped by German COM
mercial interests that Germany,
as a strong seafaring nation,
would be permitted to become a
party to the treaty. This hope
having proved vain one, it is
urged more strongly than ever
that Germany pursue course of
it's own in Central America in
spite of Uncle Sam. eve have
rights in Venezuela" say the
jingoes, ''for once the district Of
Caracas was German territory,
and once German territory al
ways German territory"
These ultra pan-Teutons hope
that the changes in Venezuela
which are expected as the result
of the inevitable fall of President
Castro will offer an opportunity
for intervention on the ground of
securing guarantees for the bet
ter protection of German in
tereSts.

Gen. Smith going in person to
the scene.
Fiske Warren, the first man to
take the oath of allegiance re-
quired under the recent act of
the Philippine commission of all
suspects attempting to land, has
been closely identified with Sixto
Lopez. Many reasonable and
inaammatory proclamations were
found in his baggage. Regard
ing these, he said he had only
one copy of each, having retain
ed these as souvenirs. 1t is
known also that he was intimate
with the members of the junta in
Hongkong. He at first objected
to taking the oath, saying that
he was a loyal citizen, but he
signed it when notified that on
no other condition would he be
allowed to land.
Some of his fellow passengers
told Gov. Taft that Warren and
Lopez shook hands and retired
for consultation upon hearing of
President McKinley's assassina-
ton. Gov. Taft considers the
action of the commission in re-
quiring all suspects to swear
allegiance perfectly justified.

PROSPECTS IN GRAIN MART
Trading Dull Just Now With Firm
Feeling for Future
New Crop Held BECK In Anticipation Of
Better Prices, Though Worlds Wheat
SupDlu Is Grc0fer Than Last Yc0r.

NEW YORK, October 19-The
weeks developments in the grain
markets appear to hold out the
promise of higher prices. Dun's
Review today says:
Fluctuations in cereals were
small, with markets dull and fea-
tureless Corn receded little
farther, Influenced unfavorably
by the insignificant shipments
from Atlantic ports, only sol, 155
bushels for the week, compared
with 2,799, 887 last year, and 4,
746, 25S in 1899. Wheat lost lit
tie of the early gain. although
declining prices a year ago make
the difference smaller than it has
been at any time this crop year.
Foreign buying of flour is still
unsatisfactory, but the outgo of
wheat is heavy; for the United
States exports, flour included,
amounting to 4, 391, 053 bushels,
compared with 1885, 61 last
year. and 1926, 766 two years
ago. Western receipts of 1908,
Gil bushels, against 1926. 551
last week and 1926, 419 a year
ago, indicate that the new crop
is being marketed less freely,
growers holding back in eXpecta-
ton of better prices, despite the
estimate of foreign authorities
that the worlds yield will exceed
300, 100000 bushels, and unof-
fetal predictions of a domestic
crop of more than 100000
bushels.
Bradstreet's Report says:
The cereal % arkets were rath-
er apathetic early this week.
Reduced speculative interest and
liquidation, caused by larger re-
ceipts at the Northwest, weak
ened prices early.
Decreases in these receipts and
smaller Argentine shipments and
poor crop reports brought about
rather firmer feeling later. by
which the early loss was regain.
ed and slight advance regis
tered on the week. All estimates
agree that the worlds wheat
supply will be larger than a year
ago, the increases being here and
in Canada. But against this is
the fact that the rye, corn and
oats yield, not to mention other
food stuffs, are smaller this year
than for some years past.

WILL BE HIS OWN
RoosevsIfs First Message to Congress to
be a Notable State Document.

De NOtdOle ytdtc UOCument.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Oct. IL
President Roosevelt is going at
the work of writing his message
to congress with the same siren
uous energy he applies to every
duty, He has held conference
after conference with the leading
men in congress and has had one
talk after another with the chiefs
of the departments, until he has
become unusually we'll acquaint-
ed with all the intricate machin-
cry of the government.
People who expect President
Roosevelt to write an extremely
brief message consisting largely
OF summaries of the reports of
the cabinet officers will be disap-
pointed. He will write his own
message and he will discuss
every phase of the national life
which he considers of special i'm
portance.
He is not afraid to write what
he thinks, and his message will
be peculiarly his own from be-
ginning to end. He will have
something individual to say about
reciprocity, the trusts. the Mic
aragua Canal, the reorganization
of the army. the proper method
of building up the navy. the de
velopment of the agricultural in
terests of the country, the extern
sion of the rural free delivery
service, and a half dozen other
topics, all of great Importance to
the people at large.
The president is trained writ
er and distinctively a man of in
dividual ideas which he is not
afraid to express in his own Ian
guage. He is manifestly impress
ed with the vastness of the gov.
eminent he has been called upon
to administer, and he expects to
take up the important features
presented in each department OF
the government
Under the circumstances, there
fore, the Presidents message
cannot be a short one. With the
art of the trained writer Presi
dent Roosevelt will undoubtedly
cut down his message to the ex
act measure of the topics he dis
cusses, but it is no part of the
plan of the chief executive tc
omit notice of important national
events or to refrain from giving
advice the constitution expects
a president to give merely to Sc
cure a brevity which may be
business like, but certainly not
statesmanllke.
Any one who cares to forecast
the message will not go fal
wrong if he weaves together the
Buffalo speech of William Nc
Kinley aud the Minneapolis
speech of Theooore Roosevelt
Between them they constitute ar
actual digest of the important
document now actually in pro
cess of construction at the White
