USELESS SUICIDE
 OF BANK CASHIER
His Error Rectified by the Payment
 of $5O,OOO.

Buffalo, Oct 30.-Late today at the Citizens bank, Nathan Eckstein of Se- attle paid to Vice President G. Fred Teller what was announced to be a considerable sum of money, presumed to be between $45, ,OOO and $5O,OOO. The money paid into the bank was just enough to take up all the notes of MT. Eckstein's brothers, Charles and Adolf, of the Whitney -Eckstein Seed compa- ny of Buffalo, held by the bank. The paper was transferred to Nathan Eek stein.
 Thus was settled without the loss of a dollar to the bank the indebted ness which IS believed to have caused the young cashier, Henry J. Block, to commit suicide. The affair is now re garded as a closed incident so far as the bank is concerned. The body of the young cashier was brought home to- night. His books, which were examin- ed today, were found to be correct. Block knew last Friday, according to Lyman Baker. attorney for the Eek stefns. that the money to take up the paper was available and would be paid over to the bank today.
 MT. Teller made a mistake in say ing that there were forgeries in con nection with the warehouse receipts upon which MT. Block loaned" said MT. Baker. "The only difficulty was that more money was advanced than the collateral was worth

By New German Trade Ar
 rdng6m0nt
The Imperial Chancellor Explains That There is no Underlying Design Against the United States.

Berlin, Oct. 30.-Baron Speck Won Sternburg, German ambassador to the
 United States who sailed for New
 York, Oct 25, on the North German Lloyd steamer Kaiser Wilhelm II, will
 on his arrival at Washington this week
 submit to President Roosevelt, the
 proposals of the German government
 for new trade agreement between the
 United States and Germany. The am
 bassadOr takes with him a full knowl-
 edge of the German governments posi-
 tion and is prepared to negotiate.
 The correspondent here of the Asso-
 ciated Press asked the foreign office
 if in view of the public interest in the
 United States on this subject, the i'm
 perial chancellor would not define Germany's attitude with some preci-
 sion.
 Prince Von Buelow received the cor respondent today and among other things said: ''An idea I suspect is abroad in America that the changes in the German tariffs and notifications are in some way directed against the United States and that Germany desir- ed to damage the trade of the U. $. l This was never a motive with the Ger
 man government, and the proposals that are about to be made are designed
 
 countries and not to contract them. The facilities for transportation between Germany and the United States are de- stroying their locality and by the operation of forces beyond the control of either of them are bringing the two ! peoples into greater identity of eco homie interests. Each country has spe- cial aptitudes and products of which the other may avail itself and yet maintain the revenue and protective systems adjusted to it's individual sit uation.
 Germany is as little inclined to shape it's commercial policy according to a rigid dogma as the United States is. We desire to promote the interests of our country and act in consideration | of it's economy needs. The old tariff of 1879, with the amendments added to it in the course of time, no longer | correspond, in view of the develop ment of Germany's economic life, with our interests. Germany's agriculture in particular suffered in consequence of the treaties of the nineties, whose chief 1 purpose to win foreign markets. For ! this reason special attention was given 1 to German agriculture in the new | tariffs.
 That this aim is not hostile to the commercial treaties and can be recon ciled with the spirit of consideration for the interests of other countries we have already proved by the negOtia- ; ton of a series of new commercial con- ventions with the United States too, We can live on a friendly footing in trade relations and extend our system ! of exchanges to the advantage of both countries. Such is our will.'

other places fill our heart with exces- sive pain and sorrow.
 "The happiness of the Russian sov- ereign is indissolubly bound up with the happiness of our people and the sorrow Of our people is the sorrow of the sovereign.
 From the present disorders may arise great national disruption. They menace the integrity and unity of our empire.
 ''The supreme duty imposed upon us by our sovereign office requires us to efface ourself and to use all the force and reason at our command to hasten in securing the unity and ordination of the power of the central government and to assure the success of measures for pacification in all circles of public life. which are essential to the well be- ing of our people.
 we therefore direct our government to carry out our inflexible will in the following manner:
 "First-To extend to the population the immutable foundations of civic li- berty, based on the real inviolability of person, freedom of conscience speech, union and association.
 Second-WithOut suspending the al- ready ordered elections to the state douma to invite the participation in the douma, so far as the limited time before the convocation of the douma will permit, those classes Of the pOpu- lation now completely deprived of cleo toral right in general to the newly established legislative order of things
 "Third-To establish as an Un- changeable rule that no law shall be enforceable without the approval o1 the state dOuma, and that it shall bC possible for the elected of the people to exercise real participation in the su- pervision of the legality of the acts o1 the authorities.
 We appeal to all of the faithful sons of Russia to remember their duty to- ward the fatherIand, to aid in termin- ating these unprecedented disorder: and to apply their forces in coopera- tiOn to the restoration of calm anC | peace upon our natal soil. Given at Peterhof, Oct. 30, in tho eleventh year of our reign. NICHOLAS"

Conan Doyle's detective stories, with
the marvellous Sherlock Holmes as their
hero, have achieved the greatest sue.
cess of recent years. Approaching this
fact the publisher of Golfers Weekly,
New York, induced Mr.. Doyle to write
final series of the great detectives
adventures. Repeated refusals were
followed by increased inducements, and
finally Mr.. Doyle agreed to write thir-
teen stories for $4,000, or about 60
cents a word. The entire correspond.
ence was by cable. The amount paid
by Golfers is the largest ever paid for
such work and does not include the
right to publish the stories in book
form. By special arrangement with
Golfers, these famous stories are be-
