WASHINGTON. D. c.. April 25.-
The tone Of the press advices from the
European capitals has done much to
depress officials here who have labored
so long to preserve the integrity Of
China. 1t begins to appear to them
that Manchuria is hopelessly lost to
China and the best that can be done
now is to save as much as possible
from the wreck, and, therefore, the
effort will probably be made to pro-
cure from Russia a binding promise
that the powers will not be entirely
deprived of the right to exploit Man
churia commercially. 1t may be posi-
BILE to secure the opening of one or
two ports, such as was proposed in
the pending treaty between China and
the United States, which will probably
have to be amended in view Of these
last developments. The fear is ex-
pressed that the Russian movement
will be copied by other nations and
that Germany will proceed to extend
her sphere of influence in the Shan
Tung peninsula, while France will
overlap the borders of Tonquin and
"Russianize" a considerable part Of
South China.
The statement is made that the de-
partment of state is doing what 1t re-
CARDS as necessary to meet the issue.
1t Is quite plain that this government
will join in no general protest against
Russian action. The state departments
policy is so clearly defined in such
matters that the officials assume that
it is understood that whatever action
the United States takes will be indi-
vidual. 1t is true that 1t may run
parallel to the action of other powers
similarly interested, but there will be
no "entangling alliance" between US
and those powers.

Lexington, KY, Aug. Cat a reception
given here yesterday by Milton Young to
Governor Beckham, an old-fashioned
democratic love feast was held, altho the
host himself is one Of the staunchest re-
publicans in Fayette county. Prominent
democratic politicians from over the state
were in attendance, among them being
Judge s. w. Hager, democratic nominee
for state auditor; w. p. Thorne, demo-
cratic nominee for lieutenant governor,
and Colonel w. q. p. Breckenridge, who
has been out Of the democratic ranks
since 1896.
At the gathering Colonel Breckenridge
made a speech in which he announced that
he was once more with the democratic
party and asked his friends in the party
to let bygones be bygones. It Is believed
by the close friends of Colonel Brecken-
ridge that he will be candidate for con-
gress at the next election to represent
this, the seventh district, which he so
ably represented for twenty years before
he left the party and had his name placed
under the log cabin.
Friends of Colonel Breckenridge started
to launch a boom for him then and there,
but w. P. Kimball, who was called on for
speech, said he was a candidate for the
same place.

.roamed, that simply by virtue Of being
such It's life has been made happier and
BETTER
Mr.. Carnegie proceeded to say that he
had provided for this experiment in his
will more than twenty years ago, but his
retirement from business enabled him to
put the scheme into operation during his
lifetime. The problem set to the trustees
was: What can be done in towns to
benefit the masses by money in the hands
of the most public spirited citizens?" If
It was proved that good could be done
theh trustees would open new fields
to the rich which, Mr. Carnegie said, he
believed they would hereafter be more
and more anxious to find for their surplus
wealth.
Mr.. Carnegie exhorted the trustees not
to be afraid Of making mistakes, to try
many things freely but to discuss just as
freely, keeping in touch with the masses
and constantly aiming to improve their
tastes and give Dunfer1nline something
beyond what was possessed by other cities.

Denver, Aug. 6.-An official estimate Of
the land holdings of the Colorado Fuel
& Iron company and it's subsidiary corpora
lions in Colorado accounts for the three
quarters Of a million acres Of government
land that has been acquired at various
times in the last ten years thru homestead
titles or by the aid Of entries under the
timber and stone acts which allow the
title to pass from the government to the
entry man at the rate Of $3.50 an acre
instead Of $40, the regular price for coal
and mineral lands.
Some Of this land was entered in good
faith before the valuable character of the
land became known and cannot be ques-
toned, but the larger proportion Of the
public grants has been taken up covertly
by agents of the company during the last
five years.
Amount Due Is 100000.
It is said that the amounts due the
government will aggregate So 600, 900. The
extent of the land frauds in Colorado
leaves little doubt that congress at the
coming session will demand a. full investi-
CATION.
The interior department has been look
ing into the reported fraudulent entries,
and considerable information is now filed
with the department. These frauds have
in many cases taken on a serious char
acter, and it has been proved that persons
have filed in the names Of dead men, have
forged names and have paid small sums
outright for the use of peoples names.

New York, Aug. 6.-Acting Police Com
missioner Ebstein yesterday awarded
medal and honorable mention to Policeman
Thomas S.. Quinn of the Madison street
station. The honorable mention paragraph
says that Quinn, while on patrol on South
street, on July 1, rescued, at the risk of
his own life, James Townsend, 20 years
old, of 20 Magnolia avenue, Jersey City,
who had fallen overheard at Pier Al, East
river"
On the morning of July 1, things were
slow in the editorial rooms of an evening
newspaper, so a new reporter who had
recently deserted Chicago, suggested to
the city editor that he could go out and
dig UP yarn" He was allowed to go
and q, photographer armed with a triple
expansion camera was sent along with
him.
Shortly after this the reporter, the pho
tographer and the camera doomed up In
front of Pier AZ, East river. The reporter
approached Policeman Quinn, and a
drowning accident was arranged. Quinn
says he refused to be: "a party to such a
scheme, but the reporter fell overheard a
short time afterward just the same, and
! the policeman dotted his hemlet and went
to the rescue. The reporter houndered
about in the water, making as much noise
as ferryboat and bowling for help.
The reporter, it son developed, was the
better swimmer of the two and found it
necessary to turn rescuer himself. Tow
ing the portly form Of the cop to the edge
of the pier, he attracted several laborers,
| two Of whom slipped a rope around the po-
! liceman's waist and hauled him out on the
pier.
| Both Went to Hospital.
| lasso was thrown about the reporters
neck and strong hands pulled him out.
Both cop and reporter were taken to
Gouverneur hospital where they remained
for two hours, while their clothes were be-
ing dried. A special extra told about the
rescue.
It now develops that Townsend doesn' t
live at the address given and never did,.

2,455 NEW ROUTES
Burial Postal Service Greatly I'M
proved Since July /,

New York Sun Special Service.
Washington, Aug. 6.--During the first
thirty days Of the present fiscal year the
postoffice department established 2,455
rural free delivery routes. The total num-
Der of routes established for the entire
fiscal year that ended on June 80, 1903
was 5,644, consequently nearly one half
as many routes have been established
since July l as were established during
the previous twelve months.
This is largely due. however. to the fact
that the appropriation of 1902 was ex-
hausted several months before the close
of the fiscal year, and while the work Of
mapping out the routes went on before,
none was established after the funds ran
out.
On July 1 all these routes that had been
in course of preparation Immediately were
established. There still remains unallot-
ted Of the appropriation for the rural free
delivery for the present fiscal year a suffi-
Gent sum to establish 1000 additional
routes.

Mobilization was saved by an exceedingly
rare surgical operation only nine other
cases being recorded. The man was suf-
fering from an aneurism or dilation OF the
great artery. To save his life It was
necessary to reduce the aneurism and the
hospital physicians had recourse to what
is known as the .corridis operation"
A hollow porcelain covered needle was
introduced into the aneurism and a Sec
ton Of a gold wire 10 feet long passed thru
the hollow instrument and permitted to
coil in the diseased region. The wire was
then connected with a galvac battery and
the current turned on and increased at
regular Intervals. The application Of the
electrical current caused a coagulation Of
the contents of the aneurism, which there
by shrank, relieving the pressure.
