Runor That Senator Cullom of Illinois
Will Be Honored by the
President.

Chicago, June 13.-Rumors that Unit
ed States Senator Shelby M. Cullom is
to be elevated b. President Roosevelt to
a place in his cabinet, and that Gov.
Yates has begun his campaign to succeed
Mr.. Cullon, are current. There will be
three vacancies in the Roosevelt cabinet.
Attorney General Knox has just been APP
pointed Senator Quay's successor in
Pennsylvania; George B. Cortelyou, sec
rotary of the department of commerce,
probably will retire to become chairman
of the republican national committee,
and i'll health is expected to cause the re-
tirement of Postmaster General Henry
C. Payne With all these position to fill,
it is said President Roosevelt undoubted-
ly will come to Illinois for one of his
cabinet officials, and that, since the re-
election of Senator Cullom is looked
upon as improbable, the senior senator
will be offered one of the places. In that
event senator would be elected by the
next legislature.

The governor of Missouri and the au-
thorities of st. Louis county are to be
congratulated upon their fearless vim
6ication of law and their courageous
stand for public decency in preventing
the Spanish bullfight advertised to take
place in an arena near the worlds fair
grounds on Sunday. The Spanish bull
fight has no place on American soil.
Having driven Spain from this hemis-
phere we should not countenance or
tolerate the transplanting of her most
brutalizing and degrading amusement
in any state in the union.

In the newly-awakened national con-
seriousness of the Mormon peril, the fact
is beginning to dawn that the strength
of the Mormon people is in their indus
trial system, rather than their religion.
Without business basis, this queer re-
1igious cult would have dissolved into
Significance long ago. tits thisfeature
that makes the Mormons dangerous in
ourpresent-day United States. The Nor
mon church is a great commercial and
industrial power. Its commercial great
ness holds the people together, and gives
them a solidarity that defies all reform
ing political influences.

The Michigan physician who puts the
annual money loss to the United States
from typhoid fever at $50,000,00O is far
from setting forth the full truth. He
reaches his estimate by assuming 1000
as the average value of the lives and he
omits all account of money spent in care
of nonfatal cases. The real value of the
lives lost might more properly be
rated at $4,000. and at least 500 on
the average must be spent on victims
who recover. On this calculation, as
Stunning that the physician is correct, the
annual loss to the country from typhoid
is nearly 100000 900.

Far away in the mountains of the
Canadian northwest, on the borders of
the Canadian national park, near Banff,
q bed of fine anthracite has been dis
covered which is from six to ten feet
thick. 1t has been traced about ten
miles. Such deposit of hard coal will
be of much use to Canada in many ways

goes on steadily and Canadian pros
poets are excellent. The more Canada

States Our neighbor to the north can
not prosper without benefit to this

DEATHS CALL WAS SUDDEN
ABNER M'KINLEY FOUND LIFE
LESS IN A CHAIR.
Had Been Sufferer from Brights Dis
ease-Was Brother of Late Pre-
sident Mckinley.

Somerset, Pa, June 13.-Abner Nc
Kinley, brother of the late president,
was found dead in a chair in his home
at eight o'clock Saturday morning. His
death came without warning to his
family His colored servant, who slept
in his room, was up with him at two
o'clock, and it is not known at what
time Mr.. Mckinley got up again, as he
did not waken his servant. Mrs. Nc
Kinley walked into his room at eight
o'clock and found him sitting in chair
cold and apparently dead. A physician
was summoned, who said death had
probably occurred two or three hours
before. A widow and one daughter sur
vive him.
Mr. McKinley's death was due to
Bright's disease, which developed
shortly after the death of his dis
tinguished brother, three years ago.
Since then Mr.. Mckinley has devoted
nearly all his time in a vain attempt
to overcome the fatal malady, consult
ing the most eminent physicians, and
travelling from one climate to another.
Abner Mckinley, brother of the late
President Mckinley, was born in Ohio.
He was the son of William and Nancy
Campbell Mckinley. He was admitted
to the bar in New York and Ohio and
practiced law in Canton until 1897, when
he removed to New York, becoming at
torney for several large corporations,
with an Office at So Broadway. He was
a member of the Union League and Law
yers' clubs, and was a prominent figure
in New York society and in Washing
ton during his brothers occupancy of
the white house. Abner Mckinley, both
in person and in character, bore a
marked resemblance to the president

TWO STEAMERS
IN COLLISION
A SERIOUS DISASTER OCCURS
NEAR soREL, QUEBEC.
BOAT SINKS IN FEW MINUTES
Had 40 Passengers on Board of
Whom Five Are Lost-Father
and Two Sons Are Among
Those Who Persisted.

Montreal, Quebec, June 13.-The
Richelieu & Ontario Navigation COM
pany's steamer Canada, bound from
Quebec for Montreal, came into COLI
sion with the Dominion Coal COM
pany's collier Cape Breton six miles
below Sorel early Sunday. Twenty
minutes later the Canada went to the
bottom At the time of the collision
there were ITO people on board the
Canada. Five were lost the others
we're rescued Those who persisted
were: Alfred Thibeault, ticket agent
of the company at Quebec, and his
two sons, aged II and Is; Purser Bon
neterre, of the Canada; a man named
Brunei, Of Sorel.
The Collision.
The collision occurred just as dawn
was breaking. The Cape Breton lay at
the entrance of the Lake st. Peter
channel waiting for daylight so as to
find her way through. She was getting
under way when the Canada, making
for Sorel at full speed, came into view.
Just what the collision was due to and
who is responsible for it has not yet
been determined, for the officers of the
Canada decline to talk, but from the
statements given out it would appear
that the Cape Breton had not got head
way on enough to answer her rudder,
and that she swerved across the path
of the passenger boat, her bow striking
the Canada Just forward of the paddle
box on the starboard side and tearing
it's way half through. Then the Cape
Breton swung clear and the two steam
ers came alongside one another. The
shock of the collision aroused the
sleeping passengers. The Canada at
once began to settle and as the Cape
Breton did not appear to be seriously
damaged the passengers were hurriedly
transferred to this steamer. In the
excitement some Of the passengers
jumped overheard and were picked up
by boats from the Canada and the
Cape Breton, but a great majority of
those on board did not become ex-
cited, while the discipline shown by
the crew of the Canada was excellent.
Inc OduaQa 01nkS.
Twenty minutes later, when the Can
ada went down alongside the Cape
Breton, resting on her side in the mud,
all the passengers who could be found
had been transferred. Thibeult and
his two sons occupied a stateroom near
where the Cape Breton's bow entered
the Canada, and it is supposed that
they were killed in their berths. The
body of the father was recovered later
In the day, but the remains OF the two
sons have not been found. Bonneterre,
the purser, was seen after the collision,
making his way to his quarters on the
lower deck, with the intention of saw
ing his cash and his records, and it is
supposed that he persisted in the at
tempt Brunnet was a second-class
passenger and no one saw him after
the collision, though it is just possible
that he went ashore with the crew OF
one of the boats which was sent TO
secure help from Sorel. All the pas
sengers speak highly of the efforts
made by the captain and the crew of
the Canada to save the lives OF those
aboard and to their exertions is as
cribed the small loss of life.

NO HOTEL FOR DOWlE.
The Famous Zion Leader Is Unable
to Secure Accommodations
in London.

London, June 13.-John Alexander
Dowie arrived here Saturday morning
from Holland and made tour of the
hotels, accompanied by his wife and son
and escorted by deacons, in search of
accommodation. Everywhere he met
with refusal, as the hotel managers are
afraid of a repetition of the rowdyism
which marked Dowie's former stay here.
Ultimately, being unable to find lodg-
ing, Dowie proceeded to the Zionist
headquarters. These have been con-
nected with the police telephones, in an
ticipation of a possible onslaught by
the mob.

That wheat is taking the place of
rice as the principal article of food in
Japan and China is a conclusion ar
rived at by consultation of statistics,
and the reason is to be found in the
development OF wheat fields hitherto
left to the growth of grass, as in Can
ada, Australia and Russia. The more
wheat is raised the more will be used,
the larger yield keeping the price down,
and as it is the finest grain grown, it is
bound to take the place of all others.
