PERSIAN GULF PROBLEM.
Captain Mahan Declares It Second Only
 to Chinese QuestIon.

London, Aug. 2S.-Discussing in the National Review international relations in the Persian Gulf, Captain Alfred T. Mahan, U. s. N. (retired). characterizes the problem presented there as second only to the Chinese question, and as one certain to claim worldwide notice so soon as a stable equilibrium is estab- lished in the farther east. Comparing the various interests bound up in the Persian Gulf, Captain Mahan says:
 While Russia and Great Britain have nominally equal interests, Great Brit aims ultimate predominance is probable, owing to the necessity of her safeguard ing her trade route by way of Suez to India. Germany's interests coincide so closely with Great Britain's that it is reasonable to expect them to work hand in hand, while Russia will hardly un- dertake an aggressive move in southern Persia until she has completed the Si- berian railway, which will absorb all her available money and energies for some time to come"

THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
Austrian Comment on Fres, Rooseveit's
 Recont Iselnarks.

ss-.
 Vienna, Aug. 2S.-President Roose- velt's speech on Monroeism has caused widespread attention here. The Neue Freie Presse thinks that it was directed chiefly against Great Britain, and that 1t "sounds like an answer to the confer ence of the colonial premiers." The paper believes that it will make deep impression on Great Britain, which country may find herself faced by the prospect of war over Canada with 8 mighty foe, with which the South Afri- can states cannot be compared"
 "Mr. Roosevelt" continues the Neue Freie Presse, waves his bony fist against England because the Boer war published to the world the poverty of Great Britain's military forces"
 Tie Neue Freie Presse concludes as follows. "It must not be forgotten that MT. Roosevelt's fanfare was sounded in an election speech. If the head of a European state had spoken in such a manner one might anticipate war in the near future. But American election speeches are judgeable only from an American standpoint
 The Nous Wiener Tageblatt says: "The speech is a forecast of the plat form for the next campaign and is not intended as a warning to Europe, al- though it comes just at the right time, when the European governments are considering a renewal of their commer- cial treaties"

Charleston, ". Va, Aug. 2S.- Eight companies Of tke West Virginia Ma tional Guard are encamped in the New River Gorge near Thurmond tonight, having been ordered out by Governor White by request of the sheriff. In a public statement the governor said:
 'The militia is sent to suppress law" lessness and to protect life and proper ty and not for the purpose of breaking the strike. nor to act in any sense as guards or policemen for any coal oper- ators.'
 Roanoke, Va, Aug. 2S.-A special to the Times from Bluefield. W. Va, says: There is considerable excitement on Crane Creek and Simmons Creek over the recent shootings. This morning John Ruble, blacksmith employed by the Sagamore Coal and Soke company was shot by striking miners and killed. Re- ports were current during the day that number of guards had been killed and wounded by the strikers, but investiga- ton proved that Ruble was the only man killed.
 Ruble, in company with Barney Shu- mate, of this city, who had been en- ployed as guard, left the company store to go to point on the works to stand guard as the company had feared a visit from a mob. En route they, were fired on and Ruble fell. Shumate was armed with Winchester and opened fire on the miners, who, after their first volley, ran.
 The non-union men who took the strikers places are terrorized and a good many of them are leaving. W. H. McQuail, president of the Tur- key Gap Coal Co.,, was fired at through window, but was not hurt. A num- Der of guards have been engaged, and are being rushed into the field.

come domestic under the meaning of the revenue laws. The constitution was supposed to be in force in Porto Rico when 1t became a part of the United States.
 The trade with Porto Rico is domes- tic and the authorities of the port of New York have ruled that the regula- tiohs governing vessels trading in for eign trade did not apply to those trad ing with Porto Rico.
 The constitution does not expand or contract but extends wherever our boundaries extend. As the territory of a country expands so is the Jurisdiction enlarged; or is decreased if the terri tory diminished. The nature and source of jurisdiction is the same"

WORK AT FORT WRIGHT.
A Great Searchitght Mounted--shoyvs
 the New London Shore.

Fishers Island, N. Y, Aug. 28--The troops at Fort Wright are gradually making themselves familiar with the armament on the island and this after noon the men operated the mortars for three hours. The big guns were not fired during the afternoon. The men continue to distribute supplies at the different stations throughout the island.
 Tonight searchlight signals are being exchanged with New London. The men also signal with the searchlight to sev- eral points on the island.
 What is believed to be the largest searchlight in the United States has been mounted at the top of Prospect Mount and the New London shore five miles away can be plainly seen when the light is turned in that direction.
 A strong east wind is blowing across the island tonight, and the prospects for clear weather tomorrow are not promising.

MR. HOBE,S CONDITION.
He Was So Worse Yesterday and Was
 Resting Quietly.

Elbridge L. Howe was last evening about the same, and he was reported as no worse and at that time was resting quietly. His friends are very much en- couraged. and the fact that he was no worse gave them encouragement to hope that there might in the near fu- ture be favorable symptoms. It was said yesterday that to-day would be the crucial period, and should he pass this and be no worse it is believed that he may recover. Dr. Thomson, the attend ing physician, was at his bedside all last night watching his patients condi- ton. MT. Howe has made brave fight against the disease and he has the sym pathy of his many friends in this city and vicinity.

AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION.
Annual Address by MT. Cariisle-The Constitution and New Possessions.

Saratoga, N. Y, Aug. 2S.-John G. Carlisle. of New York, former secre- tary of the treasury, delivered the an- nual address before the American Bar association to-day. Unless the consti- tuition Is changed, which is hardly prob able, said MT. Carlisle, the law is the same, whether territory acquired is in the eastern or western hemisphere. The territory acquired by military occupa- ton is held by the same until congress can meet and substitute civil for mili- tary government. Porto Rico and the Philippines could not be domestic for one purpose and foreign for another.
 MT. Carlisle said in addition that the report of discovery is acknowledged by international authorities. The power to acquire territory is derived from the same power as the right to declare war. Not only is the power to acquire admit ted, but also the right to govern 1t ad- mitted.
 T do not believe that the power to tax people, to prescribe political rights and privileges" he said, extends to the extent of depriving them of a say in the conduct of affairs which concern themselves Territory is not property in the sense of depriving its inhabitants of the power of government. The gov ernment in a territory, when ratified by treaty. becomes de facto, although administered by the military The func- tions of the latter, after the recognition of territory as a part of the new owner, are merely to preserve order to protect the interests of the people, to see that they shall enjoy the liberties of subjects of the governing country.
 When the treaty with Spain was ratified Porto Rico and the Philippines became domestic. Those new possess sions could not become domestic for one purpose and foreign for another.
 Ut was held, however, that Porto Rico and the Philippines did not be-

Caused by the Breaking of the Machine s at the Station.

This morning about a quarter of two the electric lights along Chapel street and other streets in the vicinity went out and those who were up at that late hour were surprised at the occurrence.
 It was caused by one of the machines at the Grand avenue station getting out
 of order so that the work had to be transferred to another machine. Thus for two or three minutes the brilliant lights were extinguished and then again they shone with their usual brilliancy.

TO MEET CURRENCY FAMINE
UNITED STATES TREASURER
 SHAW,S EMERGENCY SCHEME.


 ing at Present but Little Over Half of
 the Calculation to Which They Are
 Entitled.
 Washington, Aug. 2s.-In view of ru- mors as to Secretary Shaw's plans for relieving the money market in the event of a possible stringency, the sec retary, who is in New York, to-day au- thorized Assistant Secretary Allies to make the following statement:
 ''The secretary recently invited some of the larger national banks in the principal cities to order additional amounts of circulating notes to be printed. National banks are entitled to issue circulation to the full amount Of their capital. The aggregate capital Of national banks is $700,000.00O, but the banks have outstanding only $35S,OOO,- 900 of circulation. The secretary has hoped to introduce an element of elas- ticity into the present system. His sug- gestions to the various banks in the larger cities that they make prepara- tion for additional circulation have met with very favorable response. It is not his intention that they should issue this additional circulation at all event, but only in case of actual necessity and emergency. He does not propose to in- fate the currency in any sense, but to be prepared to meet the actual curren- cy demand should one arise. With this in view those banks which have made arrangements to deposit United States bonds as security for such additional circulation have sent in their orders and the secretary has had all branches of the treasury service busily engaged in expediting preparation of the notes pending possible emergency.
 All this work of preparation does not indicate that the secretary will expect the banks to issue additional notes ex- cept in response to real necessity. The movement is purely prudential and pre- cautionary and intended to relieve any possible currency famine. It does not conflict at all with any of the various other methods which have heretofore been employed by the department ill re- lieving the money market
