TALKS WITH TRAVELLERS
JOHN r.. BoNNELL, REVENUE COL
LECToR, IN THE CITY.
Liquor Business Is EIourishing in
Terre Haute District-Guests
ut Local Hotels.

Everything in the Fifth district, as
We'll as the Ninth district. is favorable 10
a Republican victory" said John r. Bon
nell. revenue collector for the Terre Haute
district, who was here last night. Mr.. Bon
nell Is really at home. in both districts.
While he retains his residence at Craw-
louisville, he spends the greater part OF
his time in his Office at Terre Haute and
is thus familiar with the situation in both
districts. 1.-The sentiment in these dis
tricts." said he. land particularly among
the farmers, is that the present condition
of affairs should be continued
According TO Mr.. Bonnells figures the
liquor business is fourishing in his dis
trict- The business Of his Office amounts
10 100000 and more each month. Sept
distillery at Vincennes, which has been
in the hands OF a receiver will be opened
with a capacity OF $500 bushels of corn a
day. This will make the revenue business
of the district 100000 a year greater than
IT IS at present. Mr.. Bonnen says that for
the year ending June 30 the receipts OF his
Office aggregated $3.50 90. The Peoria.
Ill. district Led the list. with receipts
amounting 10 S31. 100000. The Terre Haute
district was second. The Cincinnati dis
trict was third. showing receipts amount
ing 10 $l5,0O0Og0.

WHAT CHINA NEEDS MOST.
Minister Wu Says Education, News
papers and Railroads.
Washington Star.

washington star.
What hope for above all else" said
Minister WI when seen by a Star reporter
to-day, sis to see my country placed on a
firm financial basis"
He has no plan he cared to discuss at
this time TO the exact details of his
plan for improving the finances of his coun-
try. but he hopes TO contribute toward
means for bringing about this end. China
is on a silver basis, and for twenty years
her debts have been made more and more
burdensome because these debts are in gold
and the value Of silver has been steadily
going down. Tn placing of China on a
firm financial basis will permit other re-
forms which Minister WI hopes TO take a
part in bringing about.
There are three important things for
China, said the minister. They are edu-
cation, railways and newspapers. | would
like to see China improve i'm these things.
because China has need of good men, and
the way 10 get good men is to have good
education. We ought TO have more schools
in China and more young men studying in
Europe and the United States. / should
like TO have schools in China as you have
system OF popular education, so that every
one can be educated. We want our peo-
pie educated
''Then we want more railroads Rail-
roads are means OF education also. They
allow people TO travel and allow those of
one town TO come in contact with people of
other towns. That is education.
The third Of the pre-eminently important
things Is the newspapers We want high
class newspapers in China. That Is another
form OF education. They must be conducted
in a proper way"
Just how Minister Wu will proceed to as
sist in bringing about the improvements he
hopes 10 see adopted In China he has not
determined He proposes doing what he
can 10 that end. The government is build
ing all the railroads there, and IL is an his
torica fact that the first railroad in China
was undertaken as the result OF Mr.. Wu's
advocacy. The government will also do
what is 10 be done for education The
newspapers will probably be the outgrovt h
of encouraging influences rather than gov
ornamental appropriation.

A DUKES GRIEF.
Death of His Only Son, Who Was an
Afflicted Creature.
London Letter.

LONDON Letter.
Everybody is feeling sorry for the Duke
of Norfolk. who lost his only son, Lord
Arundel, a few days ago. There is, how
ever, q certain measure of relief mixed
with the sympathy that is manifested for
Englands premier duke.
AS is well known, the poor young fellow
who has lust died had always been and al
ways would have been hopeless imbecile
as well as a cripple. His mind had never
developed beyond that of a child of two or
three, and in addition 10 his mental weak
ness he also had 10 suffer almost complete
blindness and partial deafness.
Some two three years ago, al the re-
quest of the Duke of Norfolk, Mr.. Percy
Anderson, the artist, painted a portrait of
Lord Arundel At that time he was about
sixteen years OF age. There is something
sad and weird in the picture. The lad is
shown seated In d splendid old high backed
chair with dark crimson velvet cushions
His figure is that OF a child, his legs are
curled under him and his hands are upon
the arms of the chair.
He is dressed in black velvet, with
broad lace collar, and his short fair hair
is cut straight across his forehead. His
eyes, as shown in the portrait, are big and
blue, with world Of unrealiZed specula-
ton in their somewhat dim depths. The
lower part OF his face seems heavy and al
most out of proportion TO the childish as
pect OF the bow and eyes
Mr. Anderson has described him 10 me
as being quite quiet and patient taking
no interest in anything or ANYBODY. There
into frenzy, during which no one was able
10 manage or soothe him except his father
TO whom he was passionately devoted.
The Duke OF Norfolk's heir now should
Edmund Talbot. who married a daughter
OF the Earl Of Abingdon. l have heard il
said recently that IL is not at all unlikely
that the Duke of Norfolk will marry again.

PROUD OF DELPHI.
VI. a. Ryan Says 1t Is One of the Pic
tuesque Towns of the state.

Delphi is one of the most picturesque
towns in the State said NJ. A Ryan, Il
Carroll county Democrat. who was at the
Hotel English last night. Mr.. Ryan has
been practicing law at Delphi for several
years, but Is preparing TO come to Indianap-
oils to live. Although Democrat he is a
uarm personal friend of Representative
Lands He said last night that Mr.. Lam
diSS son, who has been i'll with typhoid
fever. is better. There is one other lad
In Delphi that has typhoid" said Ryan,
land mothers of the town are using these
two cases as a means of keeping their boys
from going swimming In Deer creek. They
tell them II they do not keep out OF the
water they will get the fever, and the
warning has the desired effect"
Although e stanch Democrat, Mr.. Ryan
admits that Representative Lands Will
probably be elected. 1t seems TO be the
understanding in the district that the Dem
ocrats will nominate L. j. Kirkpatrick, OF
kokomo, TO make the race against Lands.
Just why Mr.. kirkpatrick Will accept the
nomination few people can understand.

The Cambria Steel Company has bought
Republic iron ore mines in Michigan, says
the Philadelphia. Press. This company
owns other iron ore mines both in the Me
saba region and the hard ore region. 1t

the details have not been perfected for
turning over the Republic mines to the
Cambria the deal has practically been set

made the property will be operated by the

The Elevators Association and the West
ern Elevating Company reached an under
standing at Buffalo yesterday, with the re-
suit that all the elevators of the two or
ganizations are now in a single pool and the
rate is practically over The Great
Northern elevator, with capacity Of 5000,
600 bushels. however, Is still on the outside.
The elevator rate has been advanced to
one-half a cent a bushel by all elevators in
the new pool. During the strike between
the elevators the rates went as low as one
eighth of cent bushel.
Petitions were filed in the United States
Circuit Court at Chicago yesterday asking
that Frank r. Chandler, mortgage bank
er operating under the firm name OF Chan
dler & Co, and the Chandler Mortgage
Company be declared bankrupt. The petit
lions set up that Chandler has liabilities
exceeding 5000 coo and assets of not more
than $4,000. Referee Eastman, in the alb
sence Of the United States judges, appoint
ed Henry w. Lehman receiver. Chandler
maintains that he has book assets in excess
of his liabilities.

TREASURY RULING.
IL Affects the Re-Entry of Articles of
Foreign Production.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 7-Secretary Shaw
is making a close and critical study Of
the practices of the Treasury Department
along a number of lines and is determined
TO institute reforms where justice or good
business principles seem to require them.
He made an important ruling to-day rela-
tive TO the readmission 10 this country of
articles of foreign production which have
once been imported and duty paid thereon
a. the time of original importation. After
careful consideration the secretary has de-
cided that the privilege of free re-entry
may be properly accorded to all articles of
foreign manufacture or production under
proper safeguards for the protection of the
revenues, provided the articles admitted
shall have not been advanced in value or
improved in condition while abroad. The
articles should be registered with full de-
scription at the custom house on eXporta-
ton and a certificate issued 10 the owner,
and on their return they must be fully
identified as the articles exported. The sec
rotary has issued instructions to the coll
lector of customs at New York in accord
ance with this decision. Heretofore the
department has held that no matter how
many times an article of foreign manufac-
ture was brought into this country IL must
pay duty each time.
