took the original message to the West Shore station at Esopus at ;SO yester- day and delivered it to the Western Union operator there with impressive caution as to secrecy. Very soon after it had been sent the superintendent of the Western Union company in New York. called up the Eospus operator and required him to personally verify the original telegram by visit to Judge Parker himself The delivery of the message in st. Louis. it appears, was being delayed until the authentici- ty of the dispatch could be proved be- yond question. The operator called Judge Parker's house on the telephone and insisted upon talking with the judge himself (whose voice he recog- nized) and told him of the situation. At Judge Parker's request the operator read the message to the judge, and up- on the latter's assurance that it was all right St. Louis received word to de- liver it to MT. Sheehan.

New Bylaw to Stop Christian scicnt-
 ists from Haunting Her Drive.
 Concord. N. H., July 10 The addition e . new bylaw to the rules of the Christian Science church was announc- ed to-day. The bylaw was promulgat- ed at the request of Mrs. Mary Baker e. Eddy. the founder of the denomina- tion. who has been subjected to consid- erable annoyance by crowds of Chris tian Scientists who await the passing of her carriage.
 The by-law is section 15 of article 22, and is headed "Thou shalt not Steal"
 The text follows: Neither a Chris tian scientist, his student or his patient, not a member Of the Mother church, shall daily and continuously haunt Mrs. Eddy's drive by meeting her once or more every day when sine goes out, on penalty of being disciplined and dealt with justly by her church. Mrs. Eddy objects to said intrusion, inasmuch as she desires one house for herself. And she, who, for forty years, has borne the burden and heat of the day should be allowed this. The only exception to this bylaws is on public occasions when she has the privilege of seeing others and of being seem

POWERFUL GERMAN FLEET.

Arrives at Plymouth, Eng.-superior to
 British Fleets Says One Expert.
 Plymouth, England, July 10.-Thou- sands of persons witnessed the arrival at Plymouth to-day of the most power |ful German fleetever seen in Great Britain. Eight battleships and seven cruisers steamed into the naval base on a visit of courtesy amidst deafening sa- lutes. and the British and German ad- mirais exchanged visits. The courtesies will be kept up until July 1s, when the Germans will depart.
 Owing to wish expressed to King Edward the Germans will receive no formal welcome and the ceremonies will be confined to naval honors and to an informal luncheon by the mayor of Plymouth.
 The arrival of the German squadron lat Plymouth has created an excellent impression here. The Daily Mails na- val expert, who is one of the best spe- cialists in his line in engineering, says the squadron is 'incontestably superior in fighting qualities to the British home or Channel fleets as now constituted" The visit creates no little adverse ed- itorial comment, it's object being held to be mystery which, the Daily Mail declares, is only explained by the anx- iety of the German officers to see mo- Utilization of the British fleet, which is now preparing for the maneuyers.

PLAN TO INVADE INDIA.
London Daily Express Print. what It
 Declares is KuropatkIn,s Plan. :.


 London. July 1.-The Daily Express to-day prints what it claims is General Kuropatkin's signed plan of invasion of British India, which, it is stated, was filed in the Russian war office as the official method of procedure in case of a war between Russia and Great Brit ain. The document goes into minute details and is three columns in length.
 Briefly summed up. Kuropatkin di- yides such war into two campaigns, one ending with the capture of Herat and the other, after two or three years administration Of the country, with the capture of Kashnir, Kandahar and Kabul. After that. says General Kuro- patkin, the British would find them selves without native support in India proper.
 The plan deals minutely with the methods Russia ought to adopt to se- cure the cooperation of the Persians and Afghans by an elaborate system of agents and Sheikhs. It estimates that one Turkestan army corps and one trans- Caspian corps would be required in the initial stage of the campaign. which I should prefer to begin in Mo- vember, as the weather is healthier for the men and all Russian ports are not frozen. A casus belli can at any time, when required, be found through col- lision between Russian and Afghan Ioutposts."

BRITISH C0MMENT.

 Him Place In lilAtors.
 London, July II. Several newspapers this morning print editorials referring to the national democratic convention at St. Louis, but most of them merely recapitulate the events of the conven- tion. All of them, however, agree that Judge Parkers personality is in accord ance with the traditions as to candi- dates for tn epresidency, but, except for the expression of general satisfac- ton that silver will not be the issue of the campaign, there are few comments showing any particularly British opin- ion on the Judgment of the delegates.
 The Standard. however, declares that Judge Parker's message to William II. Sheehan is deed which will give Par ker a place in history Conceivably it may send him to the White house, but it will certainly make him force to be reckoned with in American politics for some time to come" The Standard maintains that there is not much to choose between the St. Louis and Chi cago platforms.
 5.1 ! ne IlItteS SayS. Dy SiIlgl6 acL or that courage which is so often the re- suit of political wisdom Parker has placed himself among the most strik- ing individuals in the public life of the United States. From this side of the Atlantic we can view the great political contest of our kinsmen without parti- sanship. It is impossible, of course. that Englishnen should not feel ad- miration for the genius and energy of President Roosevelt and respect for the ascendancy of the republican party, whose brilliant record in external pol- icy has been set forth by Secretary Hay at Washington. For the rest we are conscious of nothing but a feeling of satisfaction that the democratic party has put itself right with it's country men and with the world. We are now assured that, no matter which side shall be victorious, the presidency will be filled by statesman of courage, eandor and high principles

KAISER CREATES SENSATION.
Sends Telegram to Russian Regiment
 Wishing It Success.

Wishing It Success.
 St. Petersburg, July 1O.-A sensation has been caused by the publication in The Russky Invalid. the army organ, of telegram from Emperor William to the colonel of the Wiborg (Finland) regiment of which the emperor is hon orary colonel-in-chief. The emperor congratulates the regiment on the pros pect of meeting the Japanese, and adds that he is proud his wiborg regiment will have the honor of fight ing for it's emperor, the fatherland, and the fame of the Russian army. In con- cluding the emperor says: My sincere wishes accompany the regiment, God bless it's standards"
 This telegram was only published this morning, but this evening it's con- tents had become widely known and formed the general topic of converse ton. A considerable section of the public even deduced from the message that Germany intends before long to abandon her position as a mere on- locker with regard to events in the far east. In diplomatic circles, while the Telegram has caused much surprise and comment, 1t is immediately associated with the approaching commercial treaty negotiations in Berlin. It seems to be generally understood that Russia is prepared to make considerable tariff concessions in exchange for the benev- olent neutrality of Germany during the war, as well as for the assistance Ger many is rendering in keeping the ene- mics of the Russian government in Germany under police surveillance. Moreover it has been reoatedly af- frned that Russia desires to raise money in Berlin.

 St. Louis, July 1O.-The democratic national committee in it's new makeup met at 2:3O this afternoon and again at 4 o'clock this afternoon with the avow- ed intention on behalf of the support CTS of Taggart of Indiana of organizing by electing him chairman. It was point ed out by Norman P. Mack of New York. that it would be discourteous to take any action until MT. Parker, as the candidate, was consulted.
 The Taggart men, while not having enough to elect. still suggested that David B. Hill, William F. sheehan and August Belmont, the candidates friends were still here and adopted a resolution that they be invited to meet the com mittee this afternoon. At the afternoon session Chairman Jones of the old com mittee, asserted that the contemplated action would be unprecedented and in fact illegal It was also stated that at a late hour the convention adopted a resolution authorizing MT. Jones to call the new committee together in New York city at such time as he might sug- gest.
 Senator Hill and MT. Sheehan left for New York at noon and could not, there fore, attend the meeting.
 After nearly two hours debate Sena- tor Bailey offered to compromise if the committee would adopt a resolution en- dorsing the candidacy of Thomas Tag gart for chairman of the committee. MT. Mack agreed to this and the resolution was adopted. The committee will there fore meet in New York on the call of Chairman Jones.
