FOR HEALTH OF NATIONS.
Representatives VIII Meet In wash
ingtOn TO Organize.


Washington, Nov. sO.-The general
sanitary convention of American re-
publics will be held in this city during
the present week, beginning Tuesday.
This convention is called in accord
ance with resolutions passed at the
meeting of the second international
American conference. held in the City
OF Mexico last January. Its object Is
to encourage friendly cooperation be-
tween health organizations Of the sew
eral republics in the matter of quar-
antine and sanitation.
With regard to quarantine, the de-
liberations of the convention will have
In view adequate protection against
the introduction of disease from one
country to another, while making quar-
antine of such reasonable nature that
it may be maintained with as little
annoyance to persons and hindrance to
commerce as possible.
The deliberations of the convention
will have in view such sanitation or
seaports as will cause epidemic diseases
to disappear. and to make such dis
eases more manageable and capable Of
suppression in the event that they
should be introduced.
The following republics have already
sented at the conference: Guatemala,
Nicaragua, Chill, Salvador. Honduras
Ecuador and the United States Of
America.
1t is announced that the Argentine
Republic will not participate in the
conference.
Authority will be conferred on the
delegates by the governments they rep
resent to conclude such sanitary agree
ments and regulations as in the judg-
ment of the convention may be to the
best interests of all the republics rep
resented. The convention is empower
ed to provide for the holding of suisse
quent sanitary conferences at such
places and at such regular times as It
may deem wise.
A permanent executive board of not
less than five members will be created.
1t is to be known as the international
Sanitary Bureau" and its headquarters
will be in this city.

amounting respectively to s1,34O. i6O. 4lS

FROM the figures making up the

capital stock of the national banks rem
resented 6S.s per cent. and in 1902 50 4
pei cent OF the total for all banks.
Inc deposits of national banks in 1882

IN the years mentioned, and basing the
comparison on the deposits in national

STORY OF THE SWINDLE.
How Mamie Worked the Jewellers
for 81 500,

for SI,s00,
The story of the crime for which the
DeCris woman Is wanted. Is pretty
generally known in Savannah, because
of the excitement that 1t created. On
the afternoon of Aug. IL. a neatly
dressed woman went to Theus Bros.
and presented an order; presuma bly,
from Mrs. ]. P. Williams, asking that
her niece, Miss Julia williams, the
bearer of the note. be allowed to Sc
lect some articles of jewelry that Were
to be used In making birthday pres
ents to the lady herself, and also to
Mrs. Williams.
On an order from so good a customer
as Mrs. j. r. Williams. Mr.. Theus had
no hesitancy In allowing the young
woman TO select such articles as she
fancied. She carried away with her a
magnificent pair of earrings, a hand
some diamond brooch and three rings
diamond solitaire or diamonds set with
other stones.
Took in DesbouiII0ns.
Then she went directly to Mr.. Des-
bouillons where she presented a note
signed presumably by Capt. Henry
Blum, whose niece the bearer claimed
to be, and the contents of which Were
similar to the order on Theus Bros.
Here she selected watch, gold
chain with diamond slide, diamond
and sapphire ring, diamond solitaire
and chain with a diamond heart.
She left the store and was inrne-
diately lost to view for though Theus
and Desbouillons' suspicious became
aroused within a minute or two after

Mr.. S. E. Theus, the head Of The
former firm of Theus Bros, received
information of the woman's capture

from Mr.. Osborne. He was very glad

reach her, and he reiterated his former
statement that she need expect no

supposed Cause of the Terrible Eek
pIosion I'm Chicago.

Chicago, Nov. SO.-A vigorous ex-
animation, with a view to determine
ming the cause which led to the ex-
plosion of Swift 81 Co.'S boiler plant
yesterday, when thirteen persons were
killed, was begun to-day by mechani-
cal experts, representing the city and
private interests.
Although those conducting the In
vestigation were reticent in discussing
the progress of the work, the informa-
ton given was in accord with the or
iginal theories of the accident. that
Water Tender owens, who paid the
penalty of death for his supposed
carelessness, was responsible for the
catastrophe. The great force produced
by the explosion and other deductions
led to the conclusion that the water
had been allowed to get low In the
boilers, and that when an effort was
made to supply the deficiency, the ex-
plosion, resulting in the demolition If
the plant, followed.

Chicago. Nov. s0.-"The Roman
catholics in the United States are an

taxes and are educating 100000 chill
dren without charging the country one
cent for it. Yet we have never been
given one word of praise for this ire

fault because we have never told the

object the raising of funds for the use

RATIFICATION of a treaty establishing new
political relations with China. and en-
vironed with grave international conn
plications, he acted with consummate
skill and ability, and all the American
residents In China united in tribute
to his masterful and energetic course.
while the British government rendered
it's thanks to him, through the Secre-
tary of state, for having saved the life
OF a British sailor, taken prisoner at
Peiho.
Savannah has cause TO remember
him with gratitude. Not only was
he at one time one of her most dis
tinguished citizens, but as her Mayor,
he established order where there was
disorder, and lifted the town from the
position of a badly governed village to
that of a well regulated city. 1T was his
strong hand that made the roughism
of the city's population understand
that the law must be respected. When
ne was placed at the head of munich
pal affairs. there was no police force
that deserved the name. and the law
less element ran the town. 1t was
soon discovered that a new order of
things had been established, and that
the law-abiding and law-respeetf-7g
sentiment was in the ascendency. The
police force, which exists to-day, had
Its beginning under his administration,
and the first street paving was done at
his suggestion.
An HOnored Georgian.
Many prominent men have claimed
home in Savannah, but to no one of
these does she owe more than to John
E. Ward, and of no one OF them has
she more reason to be proud. He had
the distinction of being one of the few
men. living or dead, who delivered ora
lions, separated by half century, be-
fore the same organization. This he
did before the Chatham Artillery at its
fiftieth anniversary and at it's centen-
NAL celebration In Savannah In 1886,
when he was orator OF the occasion.
He was the thirteenth commander of
the Chatham Artillery, and was the
FIRST captain of the Irish Jasper Greens.
being succeeded to that position by the
late Henry r. Jackson. During the
time he practiced at the Savannah bar.
he was associated with Hon. Robert M.
Charlton, the father Of Hon. Walter G..
