BLEW UP DOG AND
 HIS HOUSE WITH II
Man Tied Dynamite to Animals Neck
 to Kill Him.

Drifton, Pa, August 24.-George Me chou's dog wrecked his masters house this morning.
 Mechou is one of the best known citi- zens of Scale Siding. The dogs name was Bismarck. He had been a family pet for years. Last week he contracted dog disease, and Mechou decided it was necessary to kill him. He led Bis marck out into the woods, tied two sticks of dynamite and a fuse around his neck and touched a match to the fuse.
 Then Mehou ran. But Bismarck ran after him. The man tried to break all sprinting records which have been made. but the pace was easy for the dog. He stuck right to his masters heels and the fuse sizzled.
 Charge, you brute Lay down. Mechou shouted over his shoulder, but Bismarck didn't understand.
 Hatless. and with his hair standing on end, Mechou reached his house and dashed into the door. He was not a moment too soon. Bismarck ran under the summer kitchen, and the next in stant one end of Mechous home rose in the air and the dog with it.
 Members of the family were badly shaken up, but no one was seriously injured.

It is all very well to admire American plant. the ingenuity of machine tools. the devices for saving labor and SD forth. But, as MT. Sahlin remarks in his special report. It is not the guns which win the battles, but the men who stand behind them What the Ameri- can admires and honors is the ability to do ;that capacity in a man. through
 his own sagacity, nerve, enterprise and skill, to create and employ a fortune

 then, that American labor is not more
 efficient, though it is better paid. than

 ing development is due to the persist
 ent, unresting industry which once characterized the Briton, but for which ! trade unionism and athletics have giv-
 en an apparently growing distaste. All the reporters, however, seem struck with the stenuousness of American life. The comparative absence of a leisurcd class is noted as one of the prominent l characteristics of the principal cities and industrial centers of the United

Nowhere, We are assured, is the strug- gling youth more kindly encouraged. more generously aided and more readi- ly trusted than in America: and it is pleasant to read of an esprit du corps among works managers which one

.RUMORS OF CRACKS
 IN THE MAINE DENIED
Cramps Say Amor of the New Bat
 tleship Is Perfectly Sound.

Philadelphia, August 24.-The officers of the Cramp shipyard were disposed yesterday to regard the report that ex- tensive cracks had appeared in the tur- ret armor of the new battleship Maine as unwarrantabie and reflecting alike upon the integrity of the company and the government officers who have in- spected the construction of the battle ship.
 A dispatch from New York said that the new battleship arrived at the Brooklyn Navy yard last week A num- Der of visitors were permitted to in spect the vessel, and some of these discovered the alleged cracks, which were said to be on the north side of the after turret. where the plate rounds to form the eclipse, which surrounds the breeeh of the twelve-inch rifle.
 A former naval officer is said to have pointed out a section utterly criss- crossed with cracks. so close together that one cannot lay his hand on the armor without covering two or more of the fractures, some of which are apparently of considerable depth. It was also stated that a jimmy might ba almost hidden in some of these cracks
 
 formation that these cracks will be filled with a cement which will make the steel armor look solid and remove the appearance of inferiority.
 One of the principal officers of the Cramps said yesterday:
 "These stories always originate through the ignorance of persons not skilled in the matter of naval constfuc- ton and armor making. If there be any small Assures in the armor of the turret in question they were seen and passed by the navy inspectors. Such surface defects in case-hardened Krupp steel are not uncommon. It in no way detracts from the efficiency of the ar mor. The pieces of arnor are inspect ed at least twenty times before they are delivered to us. We are not re- sponsible for the armor. It is certified by the government to be first-class. We are only responsible for riveting it upon the vessel. There is no time that all of the operations are not under the eyes and the control of the naval in- spectors. If there are any defects they will be discovered at the coming trial"

so much money to invest in diamonds as at present. They are so prosperous, and the seasons crops so promising that the importers of the United States have made great preparations to supply the fall trade, which from all accounts received by me will be unusually heavy. The stocks of high-gFade diamonds shown this year in the markets of Am sterdam, Antwerp, Paris and London are limited as to quality, but in less choice grades a larger variety is ob- tainable.
 The Boer war really exercised little or no influence on diamond prices, and as it is becoming each year more diffi- cult to mine the gems, l predict higher prices all along the line. Certainly for the next fifteen or twenty years prices will be maintained, and it is conserva- tive to say that diamond values will doubtless soar far above prevailing fig ures within the period 1 have named" |"
 During the last five years shere has been a notable increase in the value of diamonds, owing to the greater depth at which the gems are found and the resulting added labor at the mines.
 The diamond supply of the world is controlled by the De Beers Co.,, limited. of which the late Cecil Rhodes was the heaviest stockholder. The principal mines are located at Kimberley, South Africa.

HANNA HAS QUIT.

Buffalo. August 24.-Senator Hanna arrived at Buffalo today from Niagara Falls. For the first time he stated his abandonment finally of all efforts to end the coal strike. He believes the operators should meet the miners in arbitration. He said there was no chance for arbitration as long as only one side. the miners, was willing to ar bitrate. He gave it as his opinion that the miners will not give in as long as they are able to fight. He said he con- sidered the refusal of the operators to arbitrate as final.
 "I talked with MT. Morgan before he went to Europe" continued Senator Hanna. "and before the strike was fully under way, He deplored the situ- alton, but would take no actual part toward a settlement. His attitude, in my opinion. is unchanged"

SOUGHT BROTHERS
 SLAYER FOR YEARS
Jacob S. Waln May Testify in s.
 Morris Wan Murder Case.

Philadelphia, August 24.-Jacob s. Waln, who twelve years ago ran to earth Thomas O'Brien. the desperado who is alleged to have murdered $. Morris Waln, a young Philadelphian, while he was on hunting trip in Wyo- ming with q New York friend, only to see the prisoner allowed to escape and remain a fugitive from justice until his recapture a day or two ago in Denver, said yesterday that he could not tell whether he would go west. He may be required to take part in the prosecution of his brothers alleged murderer. He said he would await advices from the Colorado authorities. who would prose cute O'Brien.
 MT. Waln received a letter from the sheriff at Denver, but it simply en- closed newspaper clippings of the ar rest of O'Brien.
 Many persons in Philadelphia knew young Vain, and the news of the mur- der made a sensation in Philadelphia society at the time. MT. Waln, who was only twenty four years old, was a brother of Mrs. C. C. Harrison, wife of the provost of the university of Penn Sylvania. He was fine cricket player both at haNerIoru colleSe anu III the Germantown and Merton Cricket clubs.
 As told in the North American yes terday, O'Brien had been employed by the young men as a guide. He was in- dicted on the charge of murder through the efforts of Jacob Waln, who traced OBrien in 1890 to the Canon City peni- tentiary and had him identified The alleged murderer was allowed, however, to leave jail at the expiration of his term, a day or two before the warrant could be served. He escaped capture until a day or two ago. when he was arrested in Denver with a party of safe blowers.

LARGE NEGOTIATIONS

Jewellers Anticipate an Unusual De-

New York, August 24.-All indications point to the seasons importations Of diamonds far surpassing the records of previous years.
 Last week, between noon on Monday and D. m. on Tuesday. 2S packages of unset diamonds, valued at $S00,000, were passed at the appraisers stores. Mem bers of prominent wholesale diamond firms seen by a Commercial reporter today said exceptionally large stocks had been bought by them abroad this summer on the strength of the extra ordinary prosperity of the country.
 One well-known diamond merchant said the heavy crops out west would stimulate diamond buying this year, particularly around the Christmas holi- day season.
 Ludwig Nilsson of the diamond im- porting firm of Ludwig Nissen & Co.,, in John street, was one of those seen today.
