ALLEGED VANDALISM.

NEW YORK, December ia ca
blegram to the sun from London says:
The Daily Chronicle laments the fall
of the two little ancient houses ad-
joining Shakespeare birthplace. They
will not fall, the Chronicle says, by
action of time or weather, but by the
crowbar of culture to make room for
the Carnegie library, wn'ch is to be
erected on their site. 1t is such a
little site, and the houses are 50 evil
IDENTIFY Shakespearean and associated
with the poet, who must have seen
them day by day, that their destruc-
tion ought to be impossible, yet the
Mayor of Stanford has APP
proved of this. The result of Shakes
peare study at Stanford ON Avon is
to destroy the relics of Shakespeare
for the sake Of a library, which, no
doubt, is to be filled with books about
the bard.

THE CELEBRATION
OF THE CABLE.
DATE TO BE ANNOUNCED on AR
RIVAL OF THE SILNERTOWN.
SPEECHES FROM THE CAPITOL.

The public celebration of the cable
has been practically arranged for and
only awaits the arrival of the Silver
town for actual announcement. Speech
es will be made from the band stand N
the Capitol grounds when the messages
sent and received will also be read. The
time and date will be set as soon as :.
$. Dickinson can get aboard the Silver
town and find out the probable time
when all necessary splicings will be
completed.
1t is at present thought likely that
twenty-four hours will elapse after the
can be accomplished and the cable be
can be accomplished and the cable
ready for transmission of messages. Mr..
Dickinson and superintendent Gaines
will board the ship as soon as possible
and after consultation with the en-
gineers aboard will announce to the
committee on celebration, of which
George Smith is chairman, limit
within which time the functions and
landing, will be completed. This will
depend somewhat on the weather and
a conservative estimate will be made.
This done, public proClama ton of the
holiday will be made and preparations
to receive the crowd in the Capitol
grounds completed. The orators of the
day Will include Commissioner Eustis,
Judge Highton, General Hartwell and
S. 5. Dickinson of the cable company.
The band will be in attendance and
some decorations on the building and
stand may be attempted. Messages
between various bodies will be brought
to and from the talking wire" and
read to the crowd. Final arrangements
are not yet completed but will be at a
meeting of the committee to be held
| this afternoon at two o'clock. Fire
| works and a patriotic band concert in
| the evening will round out the cele-
I bration.
| The Nippon Maru, which arrived last
night, did not sight the Silvertown, al
| though she might have passed close to
! her in the night. The officers of the
! liner expected to see the cable ship in
! port when they got here and in view
of the heavy weather and her non
arrival, express fears that she may
! have been compelled to slip her cable
| This maneuver would be accomplished
! by buoying the end and cruising in the
vicinity until smoother weather per-
mitted the taking up of the work once
more.
There are 24OO miles of cable aboard
| the SilvertOWn with which to bridge
| the POO miles of distance. Two hun
| dred and fifty of these are accounted
| for as slack" or a little more than ten
| per cent of the entire distance. Wea-
| Their is such a powerful but uncertain
| factor in cable work that the arrival of
! the SilVertOwn can be predicted with
| but little certainty.

ENGLAND IN AN
AWKWARD DILEMMA
SHE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO M
POSE COUNTERVAILING SUGAR
DUTY.

LONDON, December 11.-AS a result
of a statement made by Premier Bal
four in the House of Commons today
the Government apparently finds itself
in an awkward dilemma. Questioned
recently as to whether the law officers
of the crown had ever given the opin-
ion that the imposition of counter
Vailing duty to neutralize foreign Su-
gar bounties would cOntravene the fav-
ored nation clause in existing CONNER
cial treaties, the Premier replied that
he had no record of such an opinion.
Today, however, he volunteered the
statement that an identical opinion
had been given in 1880, but he declined
to commit himself with regard to the
effect of this OpipniOn in present cir
cumstances. The Premier's statement,
however, is regarded as justifying Rus
sia's threat to treat the imposition Of
a countervailing duty as a breach Of
treaty.
AS practically the entire British eX-
port trade with foreign countries is
carried on under the protection OF the
favored nation clause the Government
faces the alternative of either drop
ping the Brussels sugar convention, or
riskIng the loss of favored nation adj
Vantages, as one effect of Great Brit
aims adhesion to the sugar convention
would be to entitle the United States
and Russia to place higher import tar
ifs on British goods. 1t is expected
that rather than risk such a serious
dislocatiOn of foreign trade the Gov
eminent will fOrego the imposition of
a COunterVailing duty on sugar.

and wish to secure the attendance Of

COMMERCE OF
THE PHILIPPINES
IMPORTS HAVE INCREASED BUT
EXPORTS HAVE FALLEN OFF.
RINDERPEST HAS CAUSED Loss.

WASHINGTON. December 1.-THE
Bureau of Insular Affairs of the War
Department has issued the following
comparative summary of the COM
merce of the Philippine islands for the
seven months ending July 81, 1902, and
1901. The total value of merchandise,
exclusive of gold and silver imported
during the seven months ended July
81, 1902, was $19.31O,437, as against
$lL132,2O5 for the same period of 1901.
The principal increase in 1902 was in
foodstuffs, the purchase of rice alone
exceeding the figures for 1901 by nearly
81 100000.
Gold and silver was imported during
the seven months of 1902 to the value
of $3,O26, IA; same period of 1901. ST.,
23O, 294. The value of imports coming
from the United States in 1902 was
81, 43S, SS9-a gain of approximately
100000 as compared with 1901.
Agricultural industries throughout
the archipelago have been materially
affected owing to the unfortunate de-
structiOn of the work cattle by an
epidemic of rinderpest, a disease that
has practically annihilated the carl
baO or water buffalo, and the outbreak
of cholera, which has Curtailed the al
ready limited supply of labor. These
unfavorable conditions, in addition to
the effect of frequent changes taking
place in the present currency stand
ard, an early and satisfactory solution
of which situation, the bureau says, is
absolutely essential to the business
interests of the islands, produced a
falling off in the exports for the seven
months ended July 81, 1902, of nearly
81 100000 as compared with the CORE
spending period of the previous year
the figures for 1902 showing $3.50, 263
| against Sl4,S19,7 in 1901.
| Gold and silver was exported to the
/ value of $2,O19,717 in 1902, against
/ $435, ISL in 1901. The general decrease
/ however did not precent a compare
/ tive increase in shipments destined
for the United States, the value OF
merchandise exported to this country
/ in 1902 amounting to $4.709, G30--a gain
| during the past two years of more than
/ 81. 250 900.
The annual export trade of the ISL
ands since the American occupation as
compared with the output prior to that
/ time has improved so rapidly that
/ the present monthly average notwith-
standing the adverse conditions that
have prevailed during the sever
months of the current year, is in eX-
! cess of the computed ratio based from
the showing of former years.

A Fly That Kills Horses.

All white men who visit regions in
Africa infested by the tsetse fly have
much to say about it. There is now
evidence that the tsetse is moving
gradually to more northern regions,
and the cause is supposed to be that
South Africa is depleted of it's large
game, much Of which is moving north
ward to get away from hunters, and
the tsetse fly is going with it.
The insect is only little larger than
the ordinary house fly, and it resem-
bless the honeybee. Its sting is hardly
as annoying as that of the mosquito
but near the base of the proboscis is a
little bag which contains its poison. II
lives on the blood of animals, and only
a few species are fatally affected by
its bite. Cattle, horses and dogs, how
ever, cannot live when bitten by the
tsetse fly. Natives who herd cattle
and travellers who depend on horses
and oxen must avoid the fly regions OF
lose their stock. For human beings it!
bite has no serious consequences.

WILCOX is CONVICTED.
Murderer of Nellie Cropsey Sentenced
to Hang April IS.

Elizabeth City, N. c., March "a
James Wilcox has been found guilty
of the murder of Nellie Cropsey. The
fury, after having been out 80 hours,
brought in verdict of guilty in the
first degree The prisoner heard the
verdict without apparent emotion.
When the verdict had been received
the court sentenced the prisoner to be
hanged April %.
An appeal will be taken to the SUI
preme court. There is little prospect
of the prisoners paying the death pen
atty on the date set by Judge Jones.
AS the supreme court does not meet
until next September it is more than
probable that it will be II months be-
fore the case is disposed of finally.
The case was one of the most sen
sational that ever occurred in North
Carolina Wilcox and Miss Cropsey
belonged to prominent families and
were among the young social leaders.
They had been engaged, but had quar-
relied. One evening Wilcox called at
the Cropsey residence and she accom-
panied him to the porch. Later
scream was heard, but neither the girl
nor Wilcox was seen. Miss Cropsey
had completely disappeared. Fol-
weeks search was made for her and II
was rumored that she was being held
q prisoner in the Dismal swamp. FL
nally her body was found in the river.
Wilcox claimed that he left the girl
standing on the porch and his theory
was that she had drowned herself.
