INDIAN DUNBAR.
American Lady Will Be Hostess for
Kitchener.


London, Nov. 1.-THE excitement
over the Indian dunbar continues. It
is estimated that nearly $4,000 Britons
and Americans will visit Delhi for the
occasion. The enormous prices
charged, however, have caused many
people to abandon the idea of being
present 1t will cost two persons
with two servants $4,000 in travelling
expenses alone. The cost of the stay
of the visitors at Delhi cannot be fully
estimated. The hotels there are al
ready charging eight times their usual
tariff and the available houses of the
town have all been quickly hired at
from $4,000 to $45, 900 apiece.
The Indian princes are sparing no
expense in taking steps to return tbs
hospitality which was extended to
them in England at the time of the cor
onation.
The most envied of the Americans
going hence to the dunbar is Mrs.
Adair. She will be Lord Kitchener's
guest and will act as his hostess, en-
tertaining a very large party invited
by the British government.

Rumor Of 81 Duty on Canadian sawn
Lumber,

Washington, Nov. 1S.-The rumor
referred to in the london dispatches
of Sunday to the effect that PROPOSE
ton is af1oat to levy duty of 81 per
thousand upon Canadian sawn lumber
must have found its origin In some
threats of private American paper mill
owners, because it is stated positively
here that the Washington government
has given the subject no consideration
SO far. The government does not pro-
pose to enter into war of tariff re-
taliation with Canada without a bet
ter understanding than it now has Of
the issues involved in this wood pulp
controversy. Moreover it Is the Of
fetal opinion that the executive power
in itself is insufficient to increase tar
iff rates upon Canadian products and
that legislation in that direction must
ccEe from congress.

which this new source of revenue has

OLD DISPUTE BETWEEN SHAFFER
AND GoMPERs BREAKS
OUT AFRESH.
CHARGES WILL BE PR0BED
Committee Authorized by the Fedora.
ton of Labor Convention to Investi-
gate the Allegation That President
Gompers Was Guilty Of UnunionIiks
Conduct in Connection With the
Great Steel Strike of 1901.

New Orleans, Nov. 18.-The old dis.
pute between President Shaffer of the
Amalgamated Association of Steel
Workers and President Gompers of the
American Federation of Labor broke
out afresh in the Federation conven-
ton during the morning and the signs
are that this time the fight will be to
uuish. The charges were originally
made by President Shaffer after the
termination of the great steel strike
of 1901. They were to the effect that
President Gompers of the American
Federation of Labor and President
John Mitchell of the United Mine
Workers had been guilty of ununion-
like conduct in refusing to support
his organization in its fight. They, on
the other hand, asserted that the asso-
citation over which President Shaffer
presided was trying to violate its
agreement and that it's stand was I'M
tenable.
Delegate Sheridan of the Amalga-
mated Association, colleague of
President Shaffer in the convention,
caused a sensation by asking unan-
imous consent to introduce a resolu-
ton calling for an investigation of the
charges. Both parties announced that
they courted an Investigation and it
will be referred to special committee
Of five, two to be selected by President
Shaffer, two by President Gompers
and the four to select the fifth.
After the adjournment President
Shaffer asserted with great emphasis:
''The entire thing is a scheme to
injure me and to discredit me SO that
l cannot be reelected. 1 had no part
in the presentation of the resolution
offered by Sheridan and believe that
he and Gompers are in collision re-
garding it,"
When asked about the statement Mr..
Sheridan denied that there was any
collision between himself and President
Gompers. The latter said:
'Mr. Shaffer may be speaking per-
fectly true when he said he did not de-
sire the introduction of the resolution,
but it is utterly false to say l am in
league with Sheridan or anybody else
in this matter"

RESULT OF a FLY BITE.
Strange Death of Three-Year-oId New

New York, Nov. 18.--Herman Kauf-
man, the three-year-old son of to-
bacco dealer living in the Bronx, died
from the effects of a fly bite inflicted
last Wednesday. A few hours later a
small spot made by the bite developed
to a swelling which extended over the
entire cheek. The swelling continued
to spread until the whole upper portion
of the child's body was distended. The
doctors were powerless to give relief
and finally the victim died. His play
mates say the fly was an ordinary
"blue bottle" The physicians believe
the insect was inflicted with erysipelas
germs.

Schenectady, N. Y, Nov. 19.-The

action of the trades assembly in declar-

its success could not be secured.

PROPERTY LOSS ENORMOUS
Destruction Reported Greater Than
That Caused by Mont Pelee on Isl.
and OF Neutrality-suspicious. Coffee
Estates Completely Ruined-com-
nerce and Government Finances in
Demoralized Condition.

New York, Nov. 17.-Astonishing
revelations of great loss OF life and
property caused by the eruption of the
Santa Marie volcano are being made
daily, says cablegram to the Herald
from Guatemala City under date of
Nov. 8, transmitted by way Of San
Salvador. .. --... ...
Eruptions continue. Many hundreds
of human beings persisted and the de-
struction Of property is considered
greater than that in the island of Mar
Unique by the eruptions of Mont Pelee.
All of the estates in the neighbor-
hood of the volcano are buried under
volcanic ashes, which reach to the
tops of the houses.
-~ Coffee Estates Ruined.
The richest coffee estates are COM
pletely ruined. The principal losers
are the large coffee planters, mostly
United States citizens and Germans,
whose properties are ruined.
Two or three new craters have been
formed on the side of the volcano.
There were no eruptions from the sum-
NIT.
Pumice and ashes were carried
chiefly in the southern and western di-
rections. The sea has a coating of
volcanic material extending for many
miles.
Commerce Demoralized.
The loss of the coffee crop, which is
Guatemala's principal export, has COM
pletely demor-lized commerce and the
government finances generally.
The national paper currency, which
is the only circulating medium, has
fallen TOT cents gold for one paper
dollar.
Prices for all necessaries have risen
to a prohibitive figure for many per-
sons. The authorities are trying to
force dealers to sell goods at the usual
price, but the condition of affairs is
such that business is entirely par
alyZed.
Violently worded handbills and post
ers are being circulated.
