day when a petition in involuntary
bankruptcy was filed against the Mil

attorneys representing a State street

filed before Judge Bethea and arrange

receiver under the order as soon as
possible Notice was given the CO.

representing three New York creditors
that he intended to take similar ac-

petition by the local concern it is now
probable that the creditors will join
with the petitioners now before the
court.
The stockholders of the Milwaukee
avenue store number 5000 persons,
many of them workmen, holders of
shares of $40 each. The individual LA

claimed, is a mooted point and it may
be that the court will hold that the

NEW CUBAN TREATY
Is ABOUT COMPLETED
Existing Commercial Conyen-
ton Gives America Worst
of the Bargain.

WASHINGTON, April 7.-Acting under
instructions from the State Department.
Edwin Morgan, Minister at Havana, has
been In conference with the officials of the
Cuban Foreign Office for some time past
with the purpose of framing a new reel
procity treaty to replace the existing con-
vention. He has now practically completed
his work, and a treaty has been drafted
that may be ready for submission to the
Senate before the adjournment of the
present session. The reason for the prep
aration of this new treaty is that the Of
ficials here have become convinced that
America is getting by far the worst of the
bargain under the present arrangement.
While nearly all of the exports from Cuba
come to our ports, only little more than
one-third of the imports into Cuba are
furnished by American farmers and mer-
chants, Europe supplying practically the
balance.
The Cuban Government did not care to
make these concessions. but it was con-
fronted with the fact that otherwise there
would be no treaty at all at the expiration
of the present convention, and without the
preferential rates of the treaty it would
he impossibie to market Cuban sugar and
other staples in America at profitable re-
turns. thus threatening ruin to Cuba

Jessie White Mario went through the Ital-

much of the fighting which brought about
the unity of Italy. She had on several
occasions escaped from dangerous situa-
tons in disguise, and she frequently
risked her life by taking the place of 9TH
ers who were being pursued and in inmi-
nent peril of capture. Garibaldi spoke of
her as the bravest woman of modern
times, and Mazzini. Victor Emmanuel and
other Italian leaders were warm in their
