BRINGS COLONIES OF ANTS.
DR.. Cook Preparing to Fight Boil Wee
wills in Texas.

Secretary Wilson and DIR. B. F. Galloway,
the director of the bureau of plant industry,
have received the first advices from DR.. o.
F. Cook the departments travelling agent,
since the latter started from Guatemala
with the newly discovered ants intended to
fight the boil weevils in the cotton districts.
Dr. Cook cables from Puerto Cortes, Mex
leo, that he will arrive at New Orleans July
4 with eighty-nine colonies of these ants. He
will Immediately proceed to the Texas cot
ton districts to begin the campaign against
the weevils.
The experimental colonization of these
ants probably will be instituted first at Vic
toria, Texas. The location of the colonies
hinges largely on soil questions, the shale-
like soil being most conducive to the sue
cess of the experiments. A letter received
by the department from DIR. Cook says that
the colonies should be located in districts
affording loose and moist subsol, but well
drained. He says the ants will have to be
kept under careful observation for a con-
from birds or other dangers until the colo
nies have had time to increase materially.
The ants come from the department of
Alta Vera PaZ Guatemala. Dr. Cook writes
from Salama, and says that contrary to
many reports, there is field culture of
cotton there.

RAN THE JAP BLOCKADE.
Russian Torpedo Destroyer Reaches
Niuchwang From Port Arthur.

NIUCHWANG, June 30-The Russian tor
redo boat destroyer, Lieutenant BurukoH.
aIrived here from Port Arthur yesterday
evening and is berthed alongside the gun
beat Sivouch. The river bank was soon
crowded with excited natives. who were
told by the Russians that the Japanese
fleet had been completely destroyed.
The officers of the Lieutenant Burukor
tell several stories. One is that Admiral
TCgos report of the fighting was exagger-
ated, and that the Russians have made
two cruises in the gulf of Pe-Chi-Li In five
days.
Another story is that the Port Arthur
fleet has joined the VladvCstok squadron.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press sent a messenger who speaks Rus
sian to the side of the destroyer, but the
Russian sailors would not talk. except to
say that they left Port Arthur Tuesday
night. Every inch of the boat was crowded
with men. She had the appearance Of hav-
ing been in general engagement her bow
gun having been shot away, and IT looked
as If she had rescued many men.
The Lieutenant Burukoff is one of the tor
pedo boat destroyers taken from the Chi
nese at Taku In 1900. The general belief
here is that she ran Admiral Togos block
ade and came here with dispatches for the
army and for ST. Petersburg. This is quite
natural, as two Cossack officers were ON
board.
The Russians last night celebrated the
arrival of the Lieutenant Burukoff. Bands
of music from the camp. east of the town,
were sent to the administrators house.
where there was singing and champagne
dinner.
All the efforts made to obtain informa-
ton regarding General Kuroki's movements
have been futile. An unconfirmed report 1s
circulated that he has reached Hai-Sheng
and cut off communication with Lao
Yang.
The Russians have large force at Ia
Tche-Kiao.
spondent of the Associated Press that Cen
eral Kuropatkins plan Is to place 10000
men In that vicinity. This, however, Is be-
lteved to be impossible.

Consul General Hanna Comments on
Various American Statements.


The State Department has received a re-
port upon the political and commercial
progress OF Mexico from Philip c. Hanna.
the American consul general at Monterey.
Mexico.
Mr. Hanna says he has noticed articles
IN many American papers to the effect that
Mexico Is stepped with a revolutionary
spirit" and that lit only requires the death
Of the present president to bring about a
condition of instability and political con-
tention such as existed many years ago."
TT is generally conceded that President
Diaz." says Mr.. Hanna, has been the
greatest factor in this republic in bringing
order out of chaos in defeating elements
which breed dissension. and inspiring the
people with a love for peace, the upbuilding
OF their country, and showing them how
much better is commercial prosperity than
revolution, with all its accompanying hard
ships Mr. Hanna asserts further that 1t
would be reelection upon the lifelong la
bors or Dfaz to suppose that the structure
of a government WAS composed of such
poor material that 1t would totter, fall and
go to pieces as soon as he should pass
away. He adds that the business men OF
Mexico today have faith IN the solidity of
the government which Diaz and his legion
of Bile advisers have founded He declares
that there is no more of the spirit OF revo-
luton In Mexico today than there Is In the
oHIeu states: Inc country no longer de-
pendS upon the existence of one head or
one great man. for there are MANY great
men within the bounds Of that country.
Mr. Hanna closes his report by stating
That Industries manufacturing nearly all
kinds of goods are springing up, and the
time Is not far distant when Mexico will
not only be able 10 supply her own people
with such things as they desire to purchase.
but will be in position to supply the people
OF South and Central America Europe and
the West Indies with all sorts of uanufac-
tured articles In competition with other
