POWERS SUBMIT THEIR PLAN
Proposed Settlement of Macedonian
Difficulties.
Most Important Principles of the
Scheme-Opposition of the
Sultan IL Expected.

Constantinople, Oct. 26.-The scheme
OF the powers for the amelioration of
affairs in Macedonia was submitted to
the porte Friday. 1t has for it's guild
ing principle control of and surveil-
lance over all branches of the admin
istration of the disturbed provinces by
Austria and Russia for a period of two
years. The proposals include the ap-
pointment OF one Austrian and one
Russian assessor, to be attached to the
staff of Hilmi Pasha, the inspector
general, with corps of assistants, Sec
retaries and interpreters, whose duties
will be to exercise control over all the
acts of the provincial authorities. A
European general in the Turkish serv-
ice is to be appointed to command the
gendarmerie, and he will be assisted
by an adequate number of Russian and
Austrian officers acquainted with the
languages Of the country, and, if nee
essary, by Austrian and Russian non
commissioned officers.
A couple of further important
proposals., which will be bitter
~ OppOSeA ny me sultan, pro-
vide for the establishment of COM
munal autonomy and the rectification
of the present communal boundaries,
with the view to the better distribu-
ton of the various communities, and
the creation of spheres, Bulgarian, AL
bantam, Servian, etc., that shall be
more homogeneous in nationality and
religion. Other points of the scheme
deal with the relief of refugees, the re-
building of villages, schools and
churches, the disarmament of the ir-
regular troops and the prohibition Sf
the employment of Bashi-Bazouks.
Opposition to the whole scheme is ex-
pected on the part of the porte, but
the Austrian and Russian ambassadors
demand the adoption of the plan with
the least possible delay.
1t is thought that some of the other
powers may object to the appointment
OF exclusively Austrian and Russian
assessors and demand that the COM
mission of control be given a more in
ternatiOnal character.

The Osterberg Brothers flats In

The Osterberg Brothers flats in
Kristianstad seem to be an Eldorado
for tenants. Miss Johanna Lindstrom
celebrated her fifty-year jubilee as a
tenant in the building October first,
and on that occasion she invited all
the older tenants to her rooms,
where she entertained them. Miss
Bothilda Nygren- has lived in the
building no less than 63 years, that
is to say, since her birthday. Sew
ing has been the chief occupation of
these two ladies, and they have spent
good and evil days together since
their early childhood. The "Old
Lady" of the house is Hanna Nilsson,
sometimes called Svensson, after her
husband, who died ever so long ago.
Hanna Nilsson will be "a years old
December next. She is sometimes
called ''the governors nurse" which
title she justly earned in the ding
past. She is receiving 81 cents 2k

THELATESTPARASITE
Discovery of a Germ Which Produces
Dreaded Sleep Disease.
A1lment Has Caused Death of Thou.
sands of African Natives-Sinsu-
lar Malay of Which Little
Has Been known.

A dispatch received at New York
from Liverpool the other day said that
q medical mission was about to start
1or the Congo to investigate further
the supposed connection of the para
site trypanosoma with the sleeping
sickness which within the past Is years
mas caused the death of many thou
sands of African natives.
This disease was first observed on
the Congo. In the early stage the pa
tlent is quiet, with dull facial ex-
preston and an almost uncomfortable
impulse to sleep.
AS the disease advances there is a
presls of gait and speech, tremors of
the tongue, lips and hands, and the
guinness OF expression deepens In the
third stage these symptoms become
more pronounced, and the patient is
IN state of complete lethargy until
death relieves him.
The disease has decreased on the
Congo, but it has spread eastward; and
its ravages about two years ago
reached Uganda on the north shore of
Victoria Nyanza. 1t has not yet Extend
cd further east, but it is still carrying
OF hundreds Of victims in Uganda.
On November II last, DR.. Castellani,
who was examining specimen of cere-
bro-spinal fluid taken during life from
wel1-marked case of sleeping sick
ness, was surprised to observe living
trypanosoma. In his later investiga-
lions many trypanosomas were found.
He suggested as a working hypothe-
sis on which to base further investiga-
ton that sleeping sickness was due to
the species of trypanosoma which he
had discovered in the cerebro-spinal
fluid of the patients. Later studies by
the physicians in Uganda have seemed
to establish the correctness of the the
ory. 1t now appears certain that every
case of sleeping sickness has trypano-
somes in the cerebro-spinal fluid.
How Is the parasite introduced into
the human system? The Uganda ply
sicians believed they have solved this
problem.
They were impressed with the singu-
lar fact that the disease in that region
occurs only along the northern shores
Of the Victoria Nyanza, in a strip of
country about Is miles wide They
reached the conclusion that trypano-
somes were carried by some blood
sucking insect. They finally found the
parasite in species of the tsetse fly,
and have proved by their laboratory
experiments that these flies have con-
veyed trypanosomes to a monkey.
The investigation had reached this
point when the report of the sleeping
sickness commission was published
in August last. 1t is at least encour-
aging to think that the cause of this
terrible malady is likely soon to be
| fully understood.
With this knowledge gained there
will be reason to hope that remedies
may be found for the disease, which,
until now, has baf1ed medical skill.

They smoked out the wrong man.
The arbitrary methods of the Mus
covites may make mess of it once
in a while. An account of a ridi-
culous blunder made by the police
at Hargo has just made the rounds
of the Scandinavian press. Prof.
Arvid Neovius, who occupied a posi-
ton at a high school in Helsing
fors, was suspected of anti-Russian
agitation, and the police were order
ed to search his house for evidence
against him. On the same day some
policemen proceeded to the house of
Senator Neovius, at Hango, and they
made thorough search of his house,
breaking locks and prying into every
thing and even destroying much ex-
pensive furniture. After the raid
was made it was found out that Sen
ator Neovius was a cousin of the man
that the authorities had in mind. But
what makes this sample of Russian
justice particularly rich is the fact
that particularly rich is the fact
and tool of General Bobrikoff, the
arch enemy of Finnish liberty.

sOnal knowledge of the moral risk justi-
des credit which would not otherwise he
granted. The interests of the whole
country are so bound up together that
no one section can truthfully say we
have plenty of money and can take care
of ourselves no matter what happens in
Wall street. The manifestations, of
course, come in the financial centers,
prices and rates of interest and weekly
statements of bank conditions. but peo-
pie in all parts of the country are doing
business and lending or borrowing mon
ey in the financial centers, especially in
New York Every day there are trans
actions and negotiations there affecting
widely scattered parts of the country,
and no one can tell how soon or to what
extent these may influence his own bus
mess, the returns on his investments his
savings account. or his insurance policy,
the market for the products of his farm,
his mine, or his factory, the sale of
goods from his store or his wages and
the cost of living for his family. No one
is so isolated or Self-contained as to be
entirely free from the effects of any inn
portant financial change or disturbance.
This is no time for any feeling or dis
cussion between different sections of
the country, classes Of people, or lines
of trade as to who is most to blame or
who can stand it best. We are all face
to face with the situation and equally
interested. 1t is no time for passion or
excitement, panic or fear, but for quiet,
calm conSidera ton. courage and firm
action based on good judgment and con-
servatism. Considering all the circum-
stances and the pace at which business
has been going for the past few years,
it is not SO surprising that there has
been such a decline in the prices Of Sc
curities but rather that the country
has stood it all SO well. and that there
has been no panic, so little trouble with
the banks and so few failures. There
could be no clearer demonstration of
the inherent strength of our conditions
and of the absolute confidence in our
currency and government finances.
Beginning with the stock pa 1ic in
May, 1901, there have been repeated and
tremendous SIumps in the prices of
stocks and securities, collapseS and fail
ures in railroad and industrial syndi-
Gates, combinations and underwriting,
any one of which, had our situation
been less strong, would have produced
bad panic and a disastrous CONNER
cial depression. That we have stood it
all so well is the best possible ground
Their and that there is no reason for its
reaching into general business and pro-
ducing any great depression. AS Secre-
tary Shaw has so well said:
There exists today no one fact, and
no combination of facts, the logical Sc
Quence of which suggests disaster. If
disaster comes it will be psychological
and not logical. The mierobe. if it ex-
lists is in the mind; it is not elsewhere. .
1t has been evident to any careful OBJ
server for more than a year past that
our bank loans have been expanding
too fast. The total loaning capacity OF
