BANDITS DEMANDS INsOLENT.
Demand Absolute Immunity From Pur-
suit or Punishment.

The kidnapers of Perdicaris and his
step-son, Marley, in Morocco, have sub
mitted their terms for ransom, and
the state department has decided that
they are absolutely impossible of &C
ceptance.
A long cablegram from Consul Gen.
eral Gummere was received by Secre-
tary Hay. The consul states, in sub
stance, that the bandit who kidnapped
Perdicaris and Marley. had been heard
from and made a set of demands which
the British minister and Mr.. Gum
mere had deemed it their duty to lay
before their government. Razouili, the
kidnaper, demanded that the Moorish
forces should be withdrawn from the
district in which his band operated,
leaving them in control. He asked a
large money ransom to be collected
from the governor of Tangier and Fee,
who happen to be bitter enemies.
He further demanded absolute i'm
munity for himself and his followers
from pursuit or punishment for the
kidnapping and other crimes they had
committed in the past. To cap the
climax of his demands, Razouili in
sisted that the United States and Eng
land should solemnly guarantee the
observance by the Moorish govern
ment of the foregoing stipulations.
Secretary Hay had conference with
the president, and it was agreed thai
Razouilis terms could not be met TIC
grant them would be equivalent tc
forcing the sutton of Morocco to abdi
} cate in favor of brigand so far as
considerable part of Moorish ter
ritory was concerned. Moreover, the
: United States could not, without es
tablishing a new and dangerous prece
: dent, undertake to guarantee the act
: of another government. The next stel
, is in doubt.
+ Admiral Chadwick will be at Tangie
: soon on the Brooklyn, to be followe'
n in the course of day or two by tn
j. remainder of his fleet. AS the utmos

st. Petersburg, May 29.-The news
contained in the dispatch to the en-
peror from General Kouropatkin, is
all that is officially given out. While
the dispatch was brief and bald, it is
considered extremely significant.
The fact that the Japanese COM
menced to advance along the main
Liaoyang road Immediately they had
forced the neck of the Liaotung PENN
sula and cut off Major General Fock
from any cooperation with the Rus
SLAMS in the north shows thorough
understanding between the Japanese
commanders.
The authorities here believe the ad-
vance from Fengwancheng has only
been suspended pending the elimina-
ton of Fock's force and they expect
that the advance upon Liaoyang will
now be pushed in earnest. 1t is evil
dent that the continual shifting of and
skirmishing by the advanced posts of
the Japanese around Fengwancheng
have been merely successful in mask
ing the real force, consisting of the
third army, which is moving north
from Takushan. 1t is expected that
this force will be hurled upon Lao
yang while the southern Japanese
force is busy before Port Arthur.
The fact that there is almost a COM
plete suspension of press messages
from Russian correspondents at the
front is taken to indicate that import
{ ant movements are pending.

Growth of Manufacturing.

Manufacturing never attained much
growth under the old Democratic regime.
Democratic legislation and Democratic
administration were not favorable to it.
They favored the importation Of manu-
featured products from foreign countries.
The real development of our manufacture
ing industries dates practically from the
birth of the Republican party and the
establishment of protection. In 1860
there were only 40, 433 manufacturing
Establishments in the United States; in
1900 there were 512,734. In 1860 the
value of our manufactures was $3.50
1000; in 1900 it was $13, 039, 279,0O
The figures show that our present great
manufacturing system dates from the or
ganiza ton of the Republican party.

How IL This, Mr.. CIeyeIandf

Ex-President Grover Cleveland says in
a solemn letter advising young men, that
his first vote was cast for ''the expert
enced. undramatic Buchanan" rather
than for Fremont, the Pathfinder" Ac-
cording to the record, Grover Cleveland
was born on the 18th day of March,
1887. He could not have reached the
age of twenty-one years in 1856, when
Buchanan was elected. Not until 1898
was Grover Cleveland of legal voting
age.
But, as the Washington Star remarks,
"they used to vote early and often" in
those days!

Svmpathy for Parker.

Possibly some Democrats may want
to vote for Parker, because they would
feel very sorry for him in the event of
his defeat. But it is a matter of com
mon gossip in New York that Parker,
if not elected President is to have fat
job anyway; that in fact he has already
been offered by August Belmont the posi-
ton Of counsel of the Interborough Tran
sit Railway at a salary of $4,000 a
year, the same salary he would get as
President of the United States, and that
in this position he may also do outside
legal work as member of a law firm to
consist of Hill, Sheehan and Parker. In
any event Mr.. Parker has secured a fine
advertisement for himself by his candi-
dacy for President, so that there will be
no danger whatever of his not being able
to earn a good living in private life by
the practice of law. 1t would seem to
be better for Mr.. Parker to get $4,000
per year from Mr.. Belmont as direct
counsel for that gentleman, than to get
$4,000 per year from the United States
government for official services that may
be largely influenced by the suggestions
of Mr.. Belmont who is in the trusts
neck high, and who once organized a
syndicate which got a rake-off of nearly
100000 on bonds issued during the
second Cleveland administration to make
good the deficits resulting from the Will
son tariff for revenue only" bill.
In the minds of voters the personal
prosperity of thousands of Americans
who would be adversely affected by Dem
ocratic victory should count for more
than sympathy for the Democratic can
didate; who will doubtless continue to
grow personally more prosperous, not
withstanding a disappointment in his
Presidential aspira tons.
