THEY Do Us CREDIT
Annual Meeting of the Credit Mems

AT LOUISVILLE THIS MORNING
Matters Having to Do With Their

Louisville. KY, June 10.-The seventh
annual convention of the National Credit
Mems association, representing a mem
country, met at 10 o'clock this morning
at Liederkranz hall in this city.
When President Ebert A. Young of st.
Paul, called the meeting to order there
were about 800 delegates present, besides
number of the wives and daughters of
the members. Addresses Of. welcome
were delivered by former Governor w: O..
Bradley for the state, and Walter Walker
on behalf of the local credit mems 9asso-
citation. The response was made ON be-
half of the visitors by George F. Dieterle
of Cincinnati. President Young then de-
livered his annual address. -.
President Young, in his annual address,
said the association could be credited with
improvements in the mercantile agency serv-
ice assisting its members in advancing Office
methods, reducing credit questions to a sys-
tenn, and establishing fund for the prosecu-
ton of fraudulent failures, the passage of
laws in many states prohibiting merchandise
sales in bulk without notice to creditors and
| elevating the commercial standard Of. its
members. :, 49,, - &c..
[ The extension Of agricultural, commercial,
industrial and financial activity throughout
the world has been unparalleled. We must
no longer be satisfied with the limits OF our
local credits, but should adapt ourselves to
| larger fields, .
| To adjust all the momentous pending ques-
tons will require the greatest wisdom on
the part Of our lawmakers. Concessions must
be-, made by conflicting interests for the gen
eraly good We need fewer politics and more
| patriotism; less sectional feeling and more
! Americanism. We must not diminish our
foreign trade, but on the contrary, should
strain every nerve to adopt system which
will steady and extend it. Commerce is the
exchange of merchandise and to continue
must be mutual. Depression in foreign mar
kets is not to our advantage. The more in
dustries of other nations flourish. the greater
their prosperity and the larger our pur-
chases from them the: more they will be
able to buy in return. -.

e. In His Ship. IT,.
New York, June 10.2C. P. Wychgel OF
Washington, superintendent Of a dredging
company with Offices in this city, has in
his possession, according to. the Herald,
a letter which would appear to prove al
most beyond doubt that Archduke John,
nephew of the Emperor of Austria, who
mysteriously disappeared in 1880 while on
a voyage in South American waters, lost
his life at sea.
1t was in 1887 in Vienna that the duke
met singer whose beauty was attracting
attention throughout Europe. Soon aft
erward she married the duke in London.
Efforts of friends to settle the resulting
quarrel at court were futile and the arch
duke, assuming the name of Johann Ortiz,
bought vessel in England, assumed COM
mand and, with his wife,, sailed for South
America. The ship was reported at En-
seuada, near Buenos Aires, and never has
been heard from since.
SUPERINTENDENT Wychgel says that while
he was, in 1890, superintendent of a
dredging company at Ensenada, Archduke
John sailed into port and purchased from
him ballast for a trip to Valparaiso, Chill.
They had a slight dispute over the weight
and the archduke said the ballast was to
come out Valparaiso, where it should
be weighed and draft sent for the differ
ence in price, If there was one. He gave
Wychgel q letter, of Recommendation
which he still keeps. The ship sailed a
few days later and was never sighted afs-

Patients Dragged Into Madness.
The disastrous results Of the fire
brought to light the heroic treatment
to which the patients of the asylum were
subjected under the drink cure. Former
inmates declare that they were entirely
bereft of their senses for days at a time
during the early part Of the treatment.
From a week to ten days this condition
lasts, they say, and it is to this fact that
much OF the loss of life is attributed
While taking the injections Of medicine
prescribed the condition lasts While
in this state the patient must be placed
under restraint. The inmates say tina:
sometimes men have become SO crazed
while at the hospital they had to be
placed In padded cell or room. It is
the common Gust om to chain them to the
beds when they become violent. 1t is the
suppositon that many of the inmates were
