The deadlock for the Presidency of the Montgomery City Council continues and there is no hope of settlement until Thursday night.
 A session of the Council in caucus las, night was without results and an ad. journment was taken until Thursday night when 1t is hoped a President will be finally selected.
 As results of the fruitiess caucus last night, no regular meeting of the Council was held. the Mayors inaugural message was not submitted, and the officials SC. lected at the Monday night caucus have not yet been formally elected.
 Caucus Lasted an Hour.
 The caucus of the Council was over an hour in length. but nothing was accom-. plished. The. four candidates for ,Presi- dent of the Council, W. M. Teague, John P. Kohn, c. P. Mcintyre and Gaston Gunter, were given full opportunity to confer, in the effort to reach q settle ment of the question, but all conferences were vain. Seven ballots were taken. but they accomplished nothing. Each of these ballots showed six votes for Teague, three for Mcintyre three for Kohn and three for Gunter. Realizing that nothing could be finally done, the caucus adjourned al the end of the seventh ballot to meet Thursday night.
 In the meanwhile, the Council has moi yet been organized; the Mayors mes sage has not been submitted. nor has the Mayors appointments. made yesterday been submitted to the Council. The Council caucus was called to order at 7:45 o'clock with Temporary Chairman Nathan Lobman presiding. The session of the caucus was executive and all but members of the new Council were ex' cluded.
 The entire membership of the new Coun ell was present.
 The Aldermen remained inside the Council chamber while a considerable crowd of the interested friends of the candidates remained outside in the Mayors office. The caucus had selected all city officials with the exception of President of the Council.
 Could Not Get Together. During the day efforts had been made to unite on some one of the four candi- dates and give him majority of the votes It was known, too, that these efforts had been abortive and that nc agreement had been reached when the caucus was called to order.
 The crowd of walters soon learned that directly after converting the caucus had adjourned for ten minutes to allow thu candidates to confer in the hope that 6 settlement would be reached. Nothing was done in the ten minute. conference and the balloting began. The walters ascertainted that on each ballot the vote was Teague, six; Kohn, g. Mo Intyre. 3 and Gunter 3. This showed that from the Monday night balloting MT Teague had lost one vote and Mir. GunteI had gained one. Tn the midst of the bal. loting Ray Rushton, who will be City A kk t.AA A. advise the Aldermen az to whether they could legally organize the Council with. out electing the President. After he had given his advice and withdrawn, the bal. loting was resumed. There was nc change, however, and at the end of the seventh ballot an adjournment was taken until Thursday night.

RrDrcuLEs OPPONENTS.
Joseph Chamberlain Returns to the
 Fray.

London, Oct 2o-At Newcastle to-day Joseph Chamberlain returned to the tar if controversy when he addressed an enthusiastic crowd of 4,000. and held his audience for an hour and half. It was his first public appearance since his re- cent illness.
 MT. Chamberlain deprecated the person. al elements which several of his oppo- nents had injected into the controversy. The former secretary devoted considera- ble attention to ridiculing Lord Rosebery. Sir Henry Campbell Zimmerman and Earl Spencer. He had not pretended, he con tinued, that his system could be insti- tuted without costing anything at the start, but he, did urge that taxation be transferred from points where 1t benefit ed nobody to points where the empire would profit.
 He said he did not claim that the Elm pire would break up immediately If his system was not adopted, but there were already certain tendency toward cleavage and commercial preference was the only method of binding the colonies to the mother country.
 The colonies contain 100000 whites. who had offered to make sacrifices, If necessary, in order to build an empire such as the world had not yet seen. The United Kingdom should not turn deaf ear to such an offer. and thereby lose a chance which, if now neglected. never would recur.

told. will always bear repeating. Hank wns one of the best drivers that ever sat on box. and at one time, many years ago. Horace Greeley, the great journal tat. who was travelling on the Pacific Coast. had an engagement to lecture somewhere in California, and started for his destination on the stage under the management of ',Hank' Monk. Greeley. in addition to being great sticiler for fresh air, had also a desire to get view of the magnificent scenery of the wild lands through which the route lay and took place on the box with the driver. All went we'll until the distinguished ed- ftor and philosopher began to fret because he thought the travel was slow and that he would not be in time to meet his lec- ture engagement. Mir. Greeley was de- votee to punctuality. From frettinB he began to use some of those terse words and vehement ejaculations for which he was noted whenever he was stirred up.' and complained to Hank" In very vigor- ous language. Hank" said. Keep your seat, MT. Greeley. put your hat on tight, and we'll get there on time" e.
 The Ride of His Life.
 Then he gathered up the leather rib bons on his six half wild mustangs, gave 6 yell to them that ecoed over the hill tops and through the massive forest trees. and away they went. The stage pitched and rocked like a little schooner on . turbulent ocean, but on they went. The great editor had never travelled in that particular way before in his life, and suggested that perhaps they wers going . trifie too fast. Hank" suggest cd to the great and sood man that he keep his shirt on and he would do. his part. The journey turned out to bs q safe one. and the editor In appreciation of the .driver's skill and also of his cour' tesy. made him . present of suit ol clothes and a gold watch.

Island in Which the People are Not
 Ruled by Conventionalities.
 A Frerch army officer who recently made an exploration of the Lake Chad region in Central Africa has sent to his Government curious reports of the is- land dwellers in the lake. who were amazed when the first steamboat ever seen there puffed it's noisy way among them.
 Lake Chad Is roughly triangular in shape, and about 100 miles or each of its sides. At no point Is 1t more than about thirty feet deep and 1t is a perfect maze of islands.
 The islands are long and narrow and all lie in a north-northwest and south southeast direction. This uniformity is attributed by Colonel Destenave in part to the current from the Chad River and in part to the prevailing winds.
 Many of the islands are fairly well wooded and no difficulty was experienced in supplying the steamer with fuel Amorg the trees is one which is lighter even than cork and the natives some times use 1t for canoes and also as q float in crossing the lanes of water which separate the islands. Usually the canoes used by the natives are made of reeds but not infreQuentiy rative transfert his family and fiocks from one island ts another by simply swimming across. Int cattle becomt accustomed to this mode oi changing pasturage.
 Colonel Destenave estimates that thu number of inhabited islands Is abou eighty, supporting 6 population of abou 0000 people. There are some 10000 ol SO, 900 head of cattle on the islands. ai vel as q number of horses.

 Lenders.

 Berlin, Oct. 20.-Count von Larisch Mo- ennich, an Austrian nobleman, in tesd- flying today against the syndicates of money lenders who are accused of att tempted extortion, said that immediately after his wedding at Buffalo with Miss Mary Hatterfield of Titusvile. Pa, in June, 1901, a New York bank sent him a draft for S50, 600, forwarded by the syndl- cate, which he refused to pay. The draft was based On one of the several notes which the Count signed in 1900, aggre -at- ing $25O,O 600. payable on the condition that hte married one of three young count esses, von Faber of Nuremburg (daugh- ters of Baron von Faber. the famous pencil manufacturer, each reputed to have a dowry of $2O.O00. .o0o)
 The Count had dealings with money lenders for some time His father paid them $4O,00O and Count von Larisch Mo- ennich borrowed other sums. Then, in exchange for a few hundred marks. he gave the money lenders notes and went to Wiesbaden to court one of the Faber girls. They discouraged his advances and later, at his own expense. the Count went to America and eventually married Miss Hatterfield. On motion of counsel for the defense. the case was postponed in order to bring witnesses from America.
