would provide for the leasing Of the

people OF the grazing states at that
time were not ready to accept a change
in the conditions which had existed
since stock raising had become one of
the leading industries Of the United
States and consequently the initial ef-
fort failed. The association, how.

campaign along these lines ever since,

THIRTY-THREE KILLED.


Kingston. Jamaica. June 2S.-Thir-
ty-three persons we're killed by an &C
cident which took place near Spanish
Town (ten miles west of Kingston).
Monday morning in the main conduit
of the West India Electric company,
which operates the street cars from
Kingston. Nearly 100 iaborers had
been detailed to remove sand from the
enormous pipe, which is a mile long
and which conveys water from the in
take on the Rio Cobre to the tubnes
of the power house. The work had
practically been completed when or
ders were given to allow small guam
tity of water to, enter the conduit.
Through Misrepresentation, accident or
carelessness, the full force of water was
turned on anu a mad struggle to escape
by means Of the manholes ensued
with the result tina. 33 persons were
killed. The tragedy has cast gloom
over the colony and rigid investiga-
tion into the cause is now In progress.

that an authoritative denial from
high official in the government was
telegraphed to Chicago during the
convention so as to set at rest those
of the national committee who were
uneasy over the prospect of demo-
crat presiding over the republican
campaign.
A friend OF Mr.. Cortelyou, and a
man who has known the family for
many years, gives me the following
as his political record:
Secretary George b. Cortelyous
father and grandfather were republi-
cans of the stanchest kind His grand
father, Peter Crolius Cortelyou Sr.,
was the intimate friend and associate
of Horace Greeley, Thurlow Weed and
other great leaders Of the party's early
history. Both his brothers are repub-
licans, and the members of his family
have been known as republicans since
the foundation Of the party. All the
teachings of his early years were in
that political faith, and when he took
up the study Of public questions on his
oWu dCCouhl ht DCtdiut a DtllcNtE
in republican doctrines. His first vote
was cast for republican candidate,
and from that day to this he has voted
the republican ticket.
"Mr. Cortelyou was one of the
founders of the Young Mems Repub-
lean club of Hampstead, N. Y. He
was an active member Of the Plumed
knights, and did hard and effective
service in the Blaine campaign. He
. was secretary Of the Harrison mana
gers at the Minneapolis convention.
Upon the advent of the democratic ad.
ministration In 1885 he rendered hie
resignation and left the federal ser
vice. Again, In 1893. upon the advent
of Mr. CLEVELAND second administra-
fion, he rendered his resignation and
remained only at the earnest request
of his new superior. He has gone reg
nlarly each year to his home and voted
fo- republican candidates, and while
he loyalty served democratic presf-

TRADE OUTLOOK Is BETTER.
Reviews by Dun and Bradstreet Show
Evidence of Returning Conf
dence in Business.

New York, July 2.-R. G. Dun & Co. s
Weekly Review of Trade says: AL
though the new fiscal year opens with
an extended holiday, there Is much en-
couragement in the evidences of re-
turning confidence, and statistics for
the last six months indicate that there
is no little reason for anticipating bet
ter things in the last half of the year.
Half yearly returns Of insolvencics
show that liabilities have steadily de-
creased. Railway earnings. that In
earlier months showed losses of five
per, cent, or more, in comparison with
last year, exhibit an increase of &c per
cent for June. Reports from leading
branches of trade for the last week tes-
tify to quiet condition. but scarcely
more 30 than is customary at this time
of the year. while inquiries In several
manufacturing lines promise a better
distribution in the near future.
Failures this week In the United
States are 249 against 227 last week.
