Hystery OF the Fate of the Crew ~
the Ship Marie Celeste.

Undoubtedly the most extraordinary
Of all the mysteries Of the sea is the
fate Of the crew Of the ship Marie
Celeste, Il more fantastic creation Gp.
parently than novelist ever wove. She
left New York I'm 1887 for Europe, her
personnel being thirteen, including the
captains wife and child. Two weeks
later British bark sighted her in the
Atlantic There was no sign Of life on
board. A boat was sent to her. and
a most exhaustive search proved her
to be as silent as the tomb, as desert.
ed as "A pesthouse. Everything was in
It's place, even the boats at the davits.
The hull was undamaged, the cargo
untouched. Rigging and spars were
intact; the sails were all set. The
crews weekly wash hung above the
forecastle; an awning covered the poop
Binnacle and wheel and rudder were
complete. The sailors kits and din.
ners were seen in the fOrecastle. In
the cabin was sewing machine, with
chid's garment under the needle, and
on the table half eaten meal. The
chrOnometer licked undisturbed in the
chartroom; the cash box was unri1ed
The logbook, posted to within forty
eight hours Of the visit, showed the
passage to have been favorable; the
ships appearance proved there had
been no storm. Evidences of a strug
gle or piracy or murder there were
none. Yet thirteen people had dlsap-
peared as if spirited away by some
supernatural agency, and from that
day to this the mystery has never been
unraveled, though the United States
government spared no effort to solve

Washington, d. c., Aug. 3.-The
presidents announcement that he will
call a session of congress for the mid
die of November has awakened keen
public interest as TO the matters that
will be brought forward for consider
alton and action. 1t may be conf
IDENTIFY stated that the session will deal
pre-eminently with business questions.
The captains of industry will be sum-
moned to give their testimony in the
committee room hearings Tariff and
railroad rate questions, and the bus
iness aspects of the Panama enter
prise will be the subjects demanding
attention, and they will come in a
peculiarly pressing form.
Germany's action in putting ex-
treme barriers against our trade, has
alarmed the middle west, and the re-
ciprocity conference which has been
called in Chicago for the middle of
this month will be expressive of an
awakening of western interests in the
nations trade outlets. The apparent
decision of Canada to get along with
out this country in its trade relations,
building up its own industries, points
in the same direction. The threaten
ed Chinese boycott of American goods
is occasioning some disquietude. Eff
forts are being made to adjust the
threatened difficulties by diplomacy
but it is probable that the success OF
such action will depend on the CO.
operation of congress.
The prospect of success of any leg
islation affecting the tariff may OBJ
viousy be influenced by the railroad
rate situation. 1t would be natural
for the "stand-patters'' on both ques-
| tions to unite forces in favor of let
ting things along. The fight viii
come from the senate. Its leaders are
apparently determined, whatever else
may be done in railroad legislation
| that there shall be no transfer Of
rate-making power from the hands OF
| the owners of railroad properties &c
! any public agency; and, of course, th'
power to supervise, or adjust, rates
| implies this. The senators who holt
this view may not be in a numerica
majority and hence the possibility o
their needing an alliance with the op
ponents of the tariff changes. Tina
they can control the senate admit

San Francisco, Aug. 3.-The reso-
lutions denouncing Secretary of War
Taft for the speech at Miami Univer-
slty in favor of the Chinese, which
attracted much attention some time
ago, was again brought before the
council Of the japanese and Korean
Exclusion league at yesterdays meet
ing at 927 Madison street.
The resolutions were voted too
drastic at the convention held the 26th
of last month and were referred back
to the committee on resolutions for
amendment In their new form they
were brought before the league yes
terday. c. f. knight had withdrawn
his name, but as the resolutions still
bore the signatures of the majority of
the committee, ]. Graham and c. +.
Butte, they were put before the con-
vention.
Probably they would have been
adopted as they then stood If former
Congressman Livernash had not urg-
ed their rejection on the grounds that
they were Incorporate, that their
wording was i'll chosen. and that they
WOulu only serve " tANllS a iioS'i'N
feeling among those Indifferent to
Mongolan exclusion, besides giving
opponents of the movement grounds
for saying that the object of the
league was mere vendetta.
State Senator Il. /. Wolfe urged that
the league confine itself to facts and
not expressions of personal opinion
Walter Macarthur spoke in the same
tenor. Graham, upon seeing the un-
popularity Of the resolutions, with
drew his signature.
c. f. Butte asked that the commit
tee on resolutions be allowed to with
draw the document and that the
committee be discharged, which was
done with vote of thanks. Presi-
dent Roosevelt's instructions to i'm
migration officials will hereafter re-
ceive more attention from the league.
as Tafts speech is now a thing of
the past.
Many new members were admitted,
individuals and representatives of Or
ganizations. More than 151 organi-
cations, including labor unions and
lodges of various orders, are now af-
filiated with the league. The Inter-
national Union of Retail Clerks, at
the Galveston convention recently, in
dorsed the league.
