NO TERRIBLE DANGERS
DR.. Cook Says the Arctic Seas Are
About as Safe as New =
York's Harbor.

New York, Sept. 19.-Dr. Frederick A.
Cook of Brooklyn, who was with Iieuten-
ant Peary on one Of his Arctic trips and
with the Belgica expedition to the south
pole as chief surgeon, expresses the op1n-
ion that Pearys latest endeayor was by
no means a failure and that the explorer
has added material to the annals OF sci
ence which will be found invaluable; In
fact, more valuable than the actual dis
covery of the pole ITSELF .-..-
'All this talk about the terrible dangers
to be met before reaching the pole is
sheer rot" continued DR.. Cook. "a man.
all things taken into account, is just as
safe on the Arctic ice-felds as he is in
New York. There are no fever germs
there, no contagious diseases, no MAS
matte swamps, no sewer gas, no decaying
vegetables, no rotting rags. Everything
is on ice.
''There is no danger in traversing the
ice-fields, nor from the cold, which is not
so cold as the cut Of the saline blasts on
the Atlantic seacoast.
'rIt is the food question: he added,
that was the "cul dc sac that closes up
the way to the pele.'' When this problem
is solved, reaching the pole will. in his
opinion, be quite a simple undertaking.

RUSSIA HAS BIG CROPS
With the Exception of Flax Seed
,--siberias Crops Are Not Good
"A Consulor Report.
Nstu York Sun Special Se1.vtoe

Washington. Sept 19.-Russia, like the
United States, will produce extremely
large crops of cereals this year. Siberia s
crops are bad. Consul keenan, in a re-
port to the state department, says:
1.-THE year 1902 has been extremely
satisfactory one in Russia so far as the
crops are concerned. With the single
exception Of flaxseed which is almost an
absolute failure, the crops of the present
season are the largest this country has
produced for the last ten years. The yield
Of barley and rye has been much above
the average in quantity, though the quail
ity of the barley is not so good.
1.-THE wheat harvest is exceptionally
large and as a rule the quality is also
good. Oats yielded largely in almost all
localities and l am informed that the
weight is heavy. Corn is reported to be
suffering from some sort Of insect, but on
the whole the crop in Bessarabia will, l
believe, be an average one. Sugar beets
are progressing favorably and have thus
far escaped the many enemies which at
tack this vegetable. AS to faXseed, it is
to- be feared that Russia will be obliged
to import it from Argentina.
'The above does not apply to, nor in
clude Siberia. Reports from that section
are unfaVOrable,"

but also the reckless driving of fast
horses. Queens and Suffolk counties,
he said. had spent $1o,00O,Ooo on roads.
and they had been made useless for

stop these practices in the interest Of
men who like to drive. but who have
been forced to take the side roads

ENGLAND TO BUY
PORTUGUESE TERRITORY

NEW YORK. Aug. S0.-One Of the
most interesting features Of the slack
season in London is revival OF the
rumor anent De Lagoa Bay, cables
the Tribune correspondent at London.
1t is asserted that the purchase Of the
Portuguese possessions in East Africa
will be announced when parliament
meets and that 1t will be followed
by German acquisition of a portion of
them in accordance with a secret con-
vention with Great Britain, There is
no direct confirmation of this story
from an authentic source but there is
circumstantial evidence that leads
close observers TO credit the rumor
Lord Miners recent visit to Louren-
CO Marques never has been satisfac-
torily explained nor have the propos-
ed annexations OF Transvaal territory
to Natal any significance unless the
intervening district adjoining the Por-
unguese frontier can be added.
Men versed in African affairs are
predicting the speedy purchase of
Portuguese territory and the exten-
sion of Natal northward and material
COMPENSATION to Germany for the neu-
trality maintained during the Boer
war.

IS APPOINTED DELEGATE
GuIDT WILL HAVE CHARGE
OF PHILIPPINES.
Hopes to Bring Church Question
to Islands as Predicted by
the Pope.

ROME, Aug. So.-Mgr. Guidi, who
has been appointed apostolic delegate
In the Philippine islands, was born in
April, 1852, at Matri, province of Rome.
He studied at the Gregorian Universi-
ty and College Romano until 1870,
when he entered the pontificial semi
nary, where he took the degree Of
philosophy. Pope Plus TX highly re-
garded the peculiar talents of the
young student and sent him to the
University OF Insbuck, where he re-
mained until 1877, taking the degree
Of theology and law. He was appoint
ed In 1879 secretary of the extraordin-
ary, which represented the Pope at
the marriage of King Alphonso of
Spain. and he remained secretary to
the nunciator at Madrid until 1883,
when he acted as secretary to the ex-
traordinary papal embassy at the cor
onation of the czar. From 1898 to 1897
he served as secretary Of the Nuncia-
ture at Lisbon: from 1857 to 1890 he
was auditor of the Nunciatur at Mu-
Mich; from 1890 to 1892 he was secre-
tary Of extraordinary ecclesiastical af-
fairs at the Vatican: from 1892 to 1898
he was auditor and charge d'affaires
in Brazil.
In 1899 he was seen on an extraordi-
nary mission to Ecuador and from 1899
TO 1902 he has been secretary of extra
ordinary ecclesiastical affairs at the
Vatican.
Mgr. Guidi will be nominated a IT,
tular archbishop but this title has not
yet been decided upon.
Cardinal Rampolla, the papal secre-
tary Of state, himself wishes to con-
secrate him to destroy the report OF
his opposition to Mgr. Guidfs appoint
ment. The conservation has been fix
ed for September q. so that Manager
Guidi will not depart from Rome un-
til the end of September. The apos-
tolic delegate TO the Philippines was
much pleased with his appointment
and is confident that he will be able,
with the good will of the Washington
and Philippine governments to bring
the church question in the Philippines
70 solution predicted by the Pope,
namely, satisfactory to both sides and
the best interests Of the islands.

They tell a story of having shipped

NEW YORK, Aug. 3O.-The article
on the Persian Gulf in the National
Review by Captain Mahan, U. S. n,

the leader writers and can hardly fail
to exert a decisive influence, cables
the Tribune's London correspondent,
in preventing concessions to Russia,
which would be standing menace to
British commercial interests and naval
communications between India and the
Far East. Lord Lansdowne has been
so efficient in dealing with the China
questions that 1t seems incredible,
adds the dispatch. that he should have
neglected so important a detail.

If the president had been seeking a
double Of himself, he could not have
come more closely to the mark than
in the man selected for secretary Of

may be very striking, there is more
possibility Of his being taken for the
executive than there is Of success in
palming off substitute remedy for
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. It has
become so we'll known as a cure for
headache, nervousness, indigestion,
