Col. LOWELL, Of the Moberly Dem
ocrai, spent Monday in Mexico and
writes a most interesting article re-
garding our prosperous little city and
its future. Col. Lowell among other
things says: III Mexico is not proud
OF Hardin College she ought to be.
We do not care to crlticsse, but II APP
pears to an outsider that Mexico
would be much improved if her streets
we're paved with Moberly brick. Mex
leo, taken all in all, is an excellent
city and we believe the best advertised
Of any place Of its size on the map.
This, OF course, is to be charged up 10
the account Of two Of the best known
newspapers in the State, and whose
proprietors always spell Mexico with
capitals an the way through. II is a
cold day when they do not develop
something that viii call attention to
Mexico. Hon. sam B. Cook still
claims Audrain as his home and was
there 10 vote and attend the owen
tion. He has lost none Of his old time
popularity, and this political aeumen
and good Judgment is still recognized
in his home county and he received a
hearty endorsement by the conven-
ton. The convention was harmonious
throughout and put up strong and
safe delegations to both conventions

In theory freight cars are permitted
to run through foreign roads to their
destination on the condition that on
their arrival they shall be unloaded
promptly and started on the journey
home. In practice the freight agent Is
apt to use the cars that are most ham
dy regardless Of their ownership. An
agent at Minneapolis would hardly
think twice before filling up a Maine
Central freight car with a consignment
for Manitoba. The agent at Manitoba
would not suffer q pang Of conscience
when he found himself stufing the
same car with a cargo OF supplies for
Waco Tex. Thus are begun the wan
dering Of a car which, II It were not

THE Jefferson City Tribune says:
'Col. Green Clay, Of Mexico, was in
the city Saturday on business. He is
one Of the greatest Of Missourians
even though the quiet Of private life
has kept him out Of the lime light
that Eliminates the center of the stage
Private life has been his choice, too.
He is a Missouri farmer, a Mississippi
cotton planter, and a scholar and a
statesman, belonging to the famous
Kentucky Clay family. Some years
ago Col Clay served q term in the
Missouri State Senate and his attitude
on corporation matters gave the rail-
road lobby the cold shiyers. Some Of
the very best legislation at present on
the statutes Of Missouri bearing on
the regulation Of freight rates is di-
rectly traceable to Col. Clay. He
made some notable speeches while in
the Senate. He lives and dispenses
good, old : fashioned Kentucky Mis-.
souri hospitality at a fine home in Au.
drain county near Mexico. His son
Hon. Rhodes Clay, will again repre-
sent Audrain in the General Assembly
having recently been renominated."

wAsmNeroS, May G. Admiral
SAMPSON died at 8 O'Clock this after
noon.
Admiral Sampson had u violent
bemorrhage to-day. His condition
was at once critical. At O'Clock thls
afternoon the admiral was uncol-
scious and breathing labOriously. His
physician stated that he was falling
rapidly and that the end might come
at any moment. For several days tine
Mexico weekly ledger., 1902-05-08

admiral had been growing weaker
and the hemorrhage this morning
brought on the sinking spell.
The hemorrhage from which Ad-
miral Sampson suffered this morning
was from the brain. At 2;45 O'Clock
his Inconsistencies was profound.
For more than a year Admiral
Sampson has been in III health, and
the worry over the Schley controversy
did much to hasten the end. Several
times he was reported to be dying, and
there were rumors that his mind was
affected. These we're denied by bis
physicians and immediate family.

MASCAGNPS TOUR
 COMES TO CLOSE
CONSTABLE LEvlES ON HIS PER. SoNAL EFFECTS FOR CLAIM OF $1s4-eREAT COMPOSER IS COM PLETELY PRosTRATED.

Chicago, December 22.-The American tour of Pietro Mascagni and his Italian opera company came to a sudden close today in this city with the cancellation of all dates. The continuation of Signor Mascagnis woes came last evening when an attachment was made on his personal effects by a constable representing a local claimant for s134.
 As a result of his financial difficulties. Mascagni is now confined to his room at the Audit orum annex suffering from nervous prostration. The company was scheduled to leave Chicago at o'clock this morning for tour of the west
 All of the members of Mascagnis troupe, soloists, musicians and choristers, will be given passage money tomorrow at the Italian consulate. This was decided upon at conference tonight at which Julius Goldzier, former congressman and at present attorney for the government of Italy, was empowered by the com poser to act for him. Consul Rosewadow- ski received telegraphic instructions from the Italian ambassador at Washington to do what he could to aid the company.
 But the funds for their transportation back to Italy will be furnished by the composer himself, who recently received about $500 from his bankers In Rome. Altogether Mascagni is out more than s10 GOO as a result of his ill-starred tour.
 Mascagni's physicians say a week will probably elapse before he will be able to leave his apartments.

PRESIDENT DID
 MUCH CONSULTING
AFTER MATURE CONSIDERATION HE CAME TO CONCLUSION THAT IT WAS UNNECESSARY TO SEND CUBAN TREATY TO HOUSE.

Washington, December 22.-President Roosevelt has let it be known that be- fore he reached his decision to send the Cuban reciprocity treaty to the senate and not to the house, he consulted freely the leaders of the house and the mem- bers of his cabinet. After mature consid- eration, it was determined that 1t was unnecessary to send the Cuban treaty to the house notwithstanding the fact that 1t affected revenues of the government. Precedents were looked up carefully. It was found that previous reciprocity treaties had been sent directly to the senate for ratification. This was notably true of the New Foundland treaty. No objection ever was raised to the consid- eration by the senate alone of that treaty.
 It can be said to be the purpose of the President, when the -uban treaty shall have been ratified by the senate to send a message to both branches of congress with a recommendation for such enabling legislation as will make the treaty oper- ative. This will afford the house full op- portunity.
