The Cancer Mystery.

New Hork Times.
 Those who are looking to the results of special investigations now In progress in Europe in the nope that they will solve the dread mystery of the cancer have not much to encourage them in what na.i alrt ady been accomplished. In England the MiddleseX Hospital has fine record for practical charity in making as com fortable as possible the last days of those who have passed beyond hope of relief from surgery, but It's clinical re- searches have unfortunately contributed very little to the sum of human knowl- edge concerning this .nalady During the century of ns eXistenca there has been a considerable extension of knowledge respecting the nature and structure Of the morbid conditions collectively term. ed cancer, but that is practically all
 Paget and Vi-chOw. by exact patholog- ical work laid the basis for a scientific study of the structure es themselves, while the statistical work in various countries, notably in England, has rendered it pos sble to formulate some tentative conclu- sions with regard to the prevalence Of the disease and it's geographical distri- button. The microscope has revealed the fact that cancerous tissues are composed of the same clements as normal tissues, but why these normal tissues grow in an abnormal way and in abnormal places Is as much a mystery as ever. The work of the research lab )ratories of the Mid dlesex Hospital consists chiefly in the refutation of theories which have been advanced to explain the phenomena of cancer. This has it's value. no doubt. but 1t is really very little in proportion to that which would attach to one af- frmative demonstration. The set conclu- sion to be drawn from this mass of data Is that everything peretaining to the can cer is abnormal and that fin no case can any single examination be found to show any special characteristic that can be regarded as specific or of the slight est diagnOstic value"

 to Mobile.

Wednesdays Mobile Item says:
 '"The Nettie Quill arrived at 12:30 this morning from Selma with 1,7e9 bales of cotton. 1,61 sacks of cotton seed and a long list of sundries. Captain Quill says he could have brought in two or three hundred bales more had he been sure of getting over Silver Creek bar, just above Claiborne, where the greatest trouble has been experienced this fall. But when he got there he found five feet of water which had fallen only about six inches since the first rise.
 The Nettie got to Selma Friday might with 1000 sacks of cotton seed, several hundred bales of cotton and a good mis- celaneous freight. She left Selma Sat urday morning at 4 o'clock and passed the City of Mobile in the upper river.
 ''The Nattie's cargo is the largest that has been brought down so far this season.
 "The largest loads brought by the Net tie Quill in 1898 were as follows: October 26. LAO bales: November 3. 1,545 bales; November 10, 2,222 bales. which was the champion load of the season"

BIDS FOR DREDGING.
Government Work Contemplated on
 Mobile Harbor


 Mobile, Oct. 1O.-(Special )-Bids were opened here today for doing the work of dredging in the harbor of Mobile, for which Congress at its last session au- thorized the expenditure of $5O0000 of which amount 5000 was to be expended in deepening the outer bar and $1O000 in the removal of snags and Instructions from the channel, leaving $440.000 avail able for the harhor work.
 There were three bidders as follows National Dredging Company, Whining ton. Del, S310 cents per cubic yard; Fred F.. Jones, Washington, D. C., S3.4 cents Bowers Southern Dredging Company, Galveston. Tex. S9.10 cents.
 Captain Cosby, engineer in charge, said that some four or five million feet of material will be removed under this con- tract, new feature of which is the re- auirement that from one-sixth to one quarter of the total amount be done by hydraulic dredging.
 It is probable the work will be under way withi nthe next sixty days. The opening of bids for the deepening of the outer bar will be made about the middle of next month. The successful bidder is the same concern which has done a large amount Cs work on the harhor improve ment here in past years. George C. Bar Ker. BreSl0ent or the BArKer cotton mill here. is also President of the dredging concern.
 The Medical College of Alabama opened here today with vary gratifying attend ance of students. There have been many improvements made in building and lab oratories since the last session. The opening address of Dean Ketchum had to be omitted because of the illness of his wife.
 Mobile has had an almost continual downpour of rain today and the storm signal flying has caused considerable ac- tivity among wholesale merchants doing business in proximity to the river front in anticipation of high water from d southeast storm.
 Mrs. George A. Ketchum. wife of Dr. George A. KCtchum. one of Mobiles most prominent physicians, is critically i'll at her home on Government Street. She Is reported as slightly improved today.

BOIES SCORES TRUSTS

winthrop. Iowa, Special.
 Former Governor Horace Boies began his campaign for Congress in the Third District tonight with strong declaration of the position of the Democrats of the State on the trust issue. He emphasized his belief that circumstances had fixed the eyes of the whole nation on the con test in this district, and declared that within its borders is to be fought the first battle that Is to deermine for all time the fate of the trust as a business enter prise in the American industrial life. The former Governor. despite his advanced years, displayed all the vigor of intellect and voice which characterized his former campaigns, when he was recognized as the greatest political orator in the State. He was listened to by a large audience, composed mostly of farmers, many of whom drove ten and twenty miles to be present

into insensibiity He had another severe stroke
about noon, and died at 3 o'clock. In the mean
time the directors Of the Krupp works and the
solicitors Of the dead man had been summoned
They held a consultation after the death of
Herr Krupp. and caused bulletin announcing
his death 10 be posted at the works at o'clock.
About noon rumors were In circulation in Es
sen that Herr Krupp was dying, but the public
had no accurate information regarding his con-
dition until the great works which dominate the
city and furnish employment to forty-three
thousand men were closed. The first question
everybody asked was. Did Herr Krupp commit
suicide?' There seems to be testimony to
support this suggestion the PHYSICIANS in at
tendance resolutely asserting that the case was
simply one Of apoplexy.
ATTRIBUTED TO NEWSPAPER CHARGES.
The fact that considerable time elapsed after
his death before the news announced is
taken by some persons to indicate that the cause
Of death is somewhat obscure. Near friends Of
the dead man. who were aware Of the great
mental distress into which the recent publica-
ton IN the ''vorwarts" had thrown him-re-
produced as II was in adjacent cities and tele-
graphed over the world-are confident that the
charges contained in the story induced his
death The article in the ''Vorwarts' dealt
with attacks on Herr Krupp by hotekeepers on
the island Of Capri, who had, become incensed
against him because OF their belief that he was
about to build hotel on the island himself.
Herr Krupp declared his intention Of proceed
ing against the ''Vorwarts" for libel and only
a few days before his death said he had given
orders for the preparation Of his case.
Herr Krupp's villa, where he died. is several
miles from Essen. The great gunmaker lived
there in almost feudal fashion, and the place
tonight is unapproachable, nobody being ad-
nditted within the gates except the police, the
directors of the Krupp works and the under
takers and their assistants.
The officials ard employees Of the Krupp works
yesterday called a public meeting for to-day
with the object of expressing indignation at the
charges made by the ''Vorwarts" They as
sembled at II: 30 o'clock this morning. but before

Herr Krupp expressions of loyalty and con-

TRYING TO REACH PRESIDENT.
Philadelphia Nov. 22.-Some excitement was
caused this afternoon Just after President
Roosevelt left ex-Postmaster General Smiths
house for the reception at Mr. Stotesbury's. The
carriage containing the President and Secretary
Cortelyou had just started. hanked on either
side by a squadron OF the Philadelphia City
Troop. a Secret Service man was on the box
Of the carriage The roped off sidewalks were
packed for several blocks. Suddenly a man
der the rope, and rushed straight for the Presi-
dents carriage.
The Secret Service man saw him coming, and
shouted to the police Keep that man back"
At the same time Secretary Cortelyou. who is
ever alert upon such occasions. caught glimpse
of him, and, springing up leaned far over to
protect the President from possible harm The
man got by the mounted guards. but. as it
turned out. he meant mischief
L only want to shake the Presidents hand. =
said he appealngly to Secretary Cortelyou, ex-
tending an open palm. Secretary Cortelyou
thereupon sank back into his seat and the
President gave the man friendly handshake
Meantime the carriage had stopped and mount
ed police and troopers had formed a close cor
don around it
In the confusion n colored man had also
reached the carriage. He grasped the Presi-
dents hand and covered 1t with kisses. The ex-
element caused by the incident subsidized in an
instant, and the procession proceeded

THE TRUST QUESTION.

The question of the so-called trusts is but one
of the questions must meet in connection
with our industrial system. There are many Of
them, and they serious; but they can and
will be met Time may be needed for making
the solution perfect; but il Is idle TO tell this
people that we have not the power to solve such
a problem that of exercising adequate super
vision over the great industrial combinations of
to-day. We have the power and shall find
out the way. We shall not act hastily or reck-
lessly, but we have firmly made I'D our minds
that a solution, and right solution, shall he
found and found IL will be.
No nation great as ours can expect to es-
cape the penalty Of greatness, for reatness
does not come without trouble and labor. There
are problems ahead of US at home and problems
abroad because such problems are incident TO
the working out of a great national career. We
do not shrink from them. Scant is patience
with those who preach the gospel of craven
weakness. No nation under the yet
played a part worth playing II II feared its fate
overmuch-if it did not have the courage TO be
great. We of America-we. the sons of a ma

the teachings of distrust spurn the creed of
failure and despair. We know that the future
is ours if We have in us the manhood to grasp

loins for the contest before US. rejoicing in the
struggle, and resolute so TO bear ourselves that
