OF William Cecil, Lord Burlelgh,

History repeated itself in that the
wo great Queens of England had Cecils
as their chief counsellors and states

centuries.
In the last 20 years of the Victorian
era Lord Salsbury's influence in the
political arena and in the direction Of
imperial concerns, though never OBJ

felt, and his figure will stand In his

The warehouse contained piles OF

able to escape.
The residents above, seeing their es-

Many in jumping missed the nets,

Crop Developments Favorable.

Weather and crop conditions are
still the keynotes to fall trade. In
the Northwest, Southwest and South
reports as whole are as good or bet
ter than a year ago. In the East fall
jobbing has started in well. Some
soft spots are, however, noted in the
Central West, sections in which crop
yields were lighter than hoped for
buying conservatively.
Retail trade is seasonably quiet,
and collections are reported backward
in a number Of instances. Crop de-
velopments on the whole are favorable,
improvement being noted especially
in cotton and spring wheat.
Fewer industrial operatives are on
strike now than for months past, but
the idleness Of cotton mill operatives
tends rather to increase. The lum-
ber trade Is active West and North,
but in the East 1t has not as yet re-
covered from the depression induced
by labor troubles, now about to draw
to close.
Shoe manufacturing Is notably ac-
tive the country over and eastern
shipments are breaking all records.
A scarcity of labor in this line is noted
at manufacturing centers in Massa-
chusetts.
The movement in winter wheat is
larger, especially to Northwestern
mills. and complaints Of car conges-
tlon are growing.
Warmer, dry weather has helped the
maturing and cutting of spring wheat,
which Is turning out much better than
expected some time ago.
Print cloths are slightly weaker on
the whole. From old as we'll as New
England come reports that business
is checked by the artificial conditions
prevailing in cotton goods A good
business has been done in mems wear
woolens for spring delivery, but prices
of the goods are close to cost.

ATTACK ON PORTLAND.
Fort PrebIe Considered the Key &c
tho City's Defenses.

Portland, Me-, Aug, 25.-Fort Preble
Is considered the key to the situation
in the war game" inaugurated tc
test the defense of Portland. II the
enemy capture Fort Preble, or even
the Knoll just to the westward of 1t
other forts might have to capitulate
But II the enemy captures all the
other forts, Fort Preble can not be
captured except by a heavy land at
tack, and Fort Preble can drive an
enemy from all other forts, according
to the army which is defending this
port against the navy.
The guns of none Of the other forts
can be trained on Preble, while the
shells from its four mortar batteries
can be dropped into each Of the other
forts.
There will doubtless be a daylight
attack on the fortifcations and this
will doubtless be brilliant as probably
the entire fleet Of Admiral Barker will
participate. The ships will approach
the fortiflcations and as they come
in range the guns on the shore batter
les will open fire, while the ships will
reply. After the first round only one
gun Of each class on both shore and in
the fleet will be used for full charges,
the others using caps. On another day
the fleet will make an attempt to land
large force on shore The attack
opens today and closes Friday.
At sunset the coast patrol system
of the defending forces was put in
operation to prevent the navy from
landing, The patrol stretches from
Fort Preble to Bowery Beach. nine
or ten miles. A heavy artillery com.
pany has been assigned the wireless
telegraph station taken Sunday by
Major Welch near the Two Lights.

A MILE IN TWO MINUTES
Lou Dillon Breaks Worlds
Trotting Record.
Weather and Track Conditions Were
Perfect-last Quarter Mile Was
Done In 2e Seconds-on Friday
Major DeImar Will Go Against the
GeIding Trotting Record.

Readville, Mass, Aug. 25.-Before a
great crowd Of spectators at the local
track Lou Lillon trotted a mile in
minutes and broke the worlds record.
The weather and track conditions
were practically perfect when Millard
Sanders, driver of the Dillon mare,
brought her out. For pacemakers
Peggy from Paris and Carrie Nation
were used
On the first score Lou Dillon made
a break just before reaching the wire.
On the second attempt the word was
given. Driver Tanner kept Peggy
from Paris directly in front of the
peerless chestnut trotter, while Nc.
Coy laid at her wheel. In this way
the trio were at the quarter in 30A
seconds. With never a skip Lou Dill.
Ion went down the back stretch. The
half was trotted in 1:00A.
Around the turn to the three-quar.
ters pole the pace quickened, the third
quarter being done in 30A seconds
Then came the real test. Faster and
faster came the leading runner and
right with her trotted the handsome
Lou Dillon. To the amazement of all
the last quarter was completed in 20
seconds, thus making the mile in 2
minutes fiat.
The announcement of the time
caused the thousands OF spectators tc
jump to their feet with cheer after
cheer.
Lou Dillon was apparently as fresh
at the finish as though she had only
been out for Jogging exercise. Sand.
ers said he fully believed that before
the season closes he will drive the
mare In 1:59 or better.
BUD Dcble won the BLUE Hill"
stake Tor $4,000 with Kinney Lou.
Ben II. caused some excitement IN
the first heat Of the 2:14 trot When
scoring he was run into. The driver
was thrown and the horse ran two
miles before he could be stopped.
Friday Major Delmar will go against

THAT LEPER COLONY.
Emphatic Denial of Alleged Unsanl.
tarY Condition.

Poughkeepsie, Aug 25.-B. H. Os-
Juan, Porto Rico, who is visiting in
this city, makes a most emphatic de-
NAL Of the newspaper reports to the
effect that because Of the alleged un.
sanitary condition Of the leper colony
near San Juan the whole island of
Porto Rico is threatened with con-
tagion.
Director of Charities Osterhoudt said
to a press representative:
"The reports are not only untrue
but ridiculous. There are about 20
lepers In the colony, II males and
eight females. They are well housed
in buildings of heavy masonry, such
as were used as public buildings by
the Spanish.
"The possibility of contact with
the outside world is impracticable and.
according to all recent reports OF in
vestigaton Of the disease, the dan
ger Of contaglon Is reduced to a min
imum. can state from my own per-
sonal knowledge and frequent inspec-
tion that the lepers Of Porto Rico
confined in the colony are well housed
well cared for. well fed, well clothed
and as contented as people In their
unfortunate condition could possibly
be. The charges made in the reports
are absolutely false. The lepers are
given no money and all the employees
are paid in checks cashable only
at the San Juan bank"
Mr.. Osterhoudt will not return until
November Governor William II. Hunt
of Porto Rico is in the Adirondacks
and before returning to the island
Mr.. Osterhoudt will visit the governor
and also President Roosevelt.
