They will soon discover that this sort of di- plomacy, effective though it be with their Latin neighbors, will not serve their purpose with this government President Roosevelt is too wary to be caught in such a clumsy trap.
 Since the rejection of the treaty the state department has not allowed any lntimation to escape regarding the probable course of action to be pur- sued and it is this ominous silence that has started the petty statesmen of Colombia to action.
 As the choice of route is left to the president, no doubt negotiations with Nicaragua will be begun as soon as the time limit has expired. It will be quite amusing to see the acrobatic contortions of the Colombian senate trying for another opportunity to rat fly the treaty which they have recent ly rejected.
 Since the above was put in type a telegram was received by the state de- partment at Washington saying that the Colombian senate had unanimous ly passed the report on first reading

Pope Plus X. is little inclined tC conserve the etiquet of the vatican when it seems to him unnecessary oI suited. He is lavish Tn his favors. Until his late faintness, at least, he received all who asked the privilege of an audience, and made no stint in blessing all the crosses and devotional objects presented to him. He has even distributed autographs among the members os his household. But one of his crowning strokes of uncon- ventionality so far was his taking the elevator after a reception to the dip- lomatic corps to retire to his cham bers. The two noble guards in attend ance went up the stairs at an unusual rate, in order to reach the third floor in time to do his holiness the proper honors. The pope, stepping out and
 recognizing them, said, in rather a hurt tone, that they ran the danger of catching cold by getting overloaded.

Sbarboro says that if any one should be successful in discover ing the process for the utilization of California grapes to produce tartaric acid on a commercial basis such a process would be of inestimable value to California and to the United States. The United States is very large importer of grape acids which are material for cream of tartar des- pite the fact that California is a very large producer of grapes.

BUSINESS CONDITIONS.

The great banking firm of Henry Clews & Co.,, of New York, in their latest bulletin say:
 ''The general business situation is exceptionally sound. Wall streets an- tics have produced an unusually con- servative feeling in business circles, and that Is excellent insurance against eVcesses during the coming season. There are signs of reaction in the iron trade as demands of the rail roads and building enterprise dimin- ish. but elsewhere there are no signs of contraction, except in cotton man. ufacturing, where the cotton corner exaggerated the effects of an actual scarcity of cotton. The effect of these tendencies is already shown in clear ing house returns. which in August showed decline of II per cent, com posed with last year for the entire country.

 ''The stock market outlook, all things considered, is fairly encourag- ing. A more hopeful feeling prevails in banking circles, though cOnserva- tism is still the policy sthere.
