BRYAN EN- ROUTE FOR HOME.
His European Trip Is at an End-De-
clares Views on Silver Question
Have Not Changed.

London, Dec. 3O.-William ]. Bryan
has returned to London from The
Hague. He will sail for New York to-
day on the White Star line steamer
Celtic from Liverpool
Mr.. Bryan said Tuesday that he had
found his European trip extremely inter-
esting and instructive. Asked whether
his study of the f.ancial conditions
abroad had resulted in any changein his
views on the silver question, he replied:
Not the slightest" Mr.. Bryan regretted
that lack of time had prevented him
from making more extensive investi-
CATION of the social and industrial condi-
lions which he obtained in the countries
through which he had passed. He had
been received everywhere with the great
est courtesy, he said, and every facility
had been extended him for investiga-
lions along these lines. Asked concern
ing the possibilities of the democratic
nomination for the presidency, Mr..
Bryan said that he was compelled to
decline. to discuss that matter in any
way, because of the possible misinterpre-
tation to which his views might be SUBJ
jected in the United States.

BUTCHERED IN COLD BLOOD
United States Minister Gives De-
tails of Horrible Massacre.
His Story Of the killing Of a Mission
airy and Eighteen Followers In
Liberia Last March.

Washington, Dec 30.-Minister Lyon
has reported to the state department
from Monrovia, Liberia, under date
of November 4, last, the details OF the
massacre in the depths of an African
forest of white missionary named
John G. Tate with al of his follow
ing, 10 in number. It appears that the
massacre took place as far back as
March Is, 1901, yet this, the first de-
tailed account, has just come to hand
in an affidavit by Mrs. Mary L. Allen,
a white missionary at Nouna Kroo.
Liberia She had the story from some
of the native Doc tribesmen who knew
of the Killing Tate had large mis-
sion and farm, and besides he main
tanned a considerable school in the
Jungle, and altogether 10 people were
in the mission when it was surround
ed in the night by the Docs. The first
man who answered a knock at the
door was shot, The interpreter next
was shot and as Tate appeared and
tried to protect the body of the in
terpreter he, too, was shot and cut to
pieces. The Docs then killed all the
remaining inmates of the house, cut
off their hands and placing the bloody
members in coffin sent them back
to their people as trophies. In ex-
PLANTATION of their action the Docs
said: 1--WE have no fight with the
white man. But if we do not kill him
now he will bring his country to make
war upon us.
Minister Lyon, on the strength of
this affidavit, has communicated with
the Liberian secretary of state with
view to securing fuller information
and perhaps the punishment Of the
narnetratnrs of the massacre

CANADA WOULD
IGNORE TREATY
Said to Be Building Armed Cruiser
for Great Lakes.
ACTION CAUSES COMMENT
OMcial Declares That No Agreement
Prohibiting Such Movement
Observation-Disclosures Not
Yet Notified.

Ottawa, Ont, Dec. 30.-The building
of a Canadian armed cruiser for the
great lakes has caused comment on the
treaty supposed to restrict such a move
ment Under Secretary of State Pope
points out that no treaty exists between
Great Britain and the United States
limiting the number and armament OF
vessels to be maintained by the United
States or Canada on the great lakes.
There is an agreement to cease placing
them there after six months notice by
either country. Mr.. Pope doubts II it
is binding.
State Department Not Informed.
Washington, Dec. 3O.-The state de-
partment Tuesday had not been in
formed that the Canadian government
contemplated placing an armed cruiser
on the lakes in addition to the few small
and insignificant national vessels now
maintained there. Recently the Cana
dian government laid down couple of
revenue cutters for lake service, and
although these were, being of modern
type, better vessels than those hereto
fore employed for this work, their con-
struction was not regarded here as
violating the treaty. Attention was
called to the matter, however, by some
of the congressman from the great lake
section, and the state department made
a quiet but effective inquiry into the
character of the Canadian cutters. It
appears that United States naval Off
Ger visited the place where the vessels
were being built and examined their
construction, fact that gave rise to
some feeling on the part Of the Cana
dians when they learned of the visit.
VIII Attempt to Repeal Treaty.
AS soon as congress recOnvenes after
the recess, there will without doubt be
a renewal of the attempt which has
been made annually for the last ten
years to secure a repeal or modification
of that section of the Rush treaty be-
tween the United States and Great Brit
ain that limits the use of naval vessels
on the lake. Representative William
Alden Smith, of Michigan, has taken a
particularly advanced position in this
excited corresponding movement in
Canada. He has heard from some quar-
ter that he believes to be reliable a
statement that the Canadian govern
ment is about to enter formal protest
against the location of the proposed
United States naval training station
on the great lakes, according to the
plans of the Taylor board. to which con-
gress is expected to give effect during
the present session. Anticipating such
protest, Mr.. Smith already has pre-
pared himself to renew with force the
attack upon the Rush treaty, holding
as he does that it has had paralyzing
and disastrous effect upon the impor-
tant shipbuilding industries of the
great lakes, as they would otherwise
be in position, not only to supply them
selves such naval vessels as might be
needed for training purposes on the
lakes, but could also enter into compe-
tition with the deep sea shipbuilders
for larger naval construction.

The people of Egypt, who had many
idols, worshiped the cett, among others.
They thought she was like the moon,
because she was more active at night,
and because her eyes changed like the
moon, which is sometimes full and at
other times only a light crescent, or.
as we say. a half moon. So they made
an idol with cats head, and named
it Pasht The same name they gave
