SAILS NORTH
LEAVES MANILA WITH JAPAN AS
DESTINATION.
FEW WITNESS DEPARTURE OF SHIPS
Authorities Of the City start New
Fight Against Cholera-Ten
New Cases Daily.

Manila, p. 1.-The sixteen big
battleships of the Atlantic fleet are
now en- route to Japan. Sailing ord6s
were given by Rear Admiral Charles
n. Sperry for the feet TO depart two
hours earlier than the announced time
Friday, and early Saturday morning
the flagship Connecticut got under
way. Half an hour later all Of the
great ships were in motion and fol
lowed the Connecticut down the bay.
In the brilliantly sun-lit morning the
majestic line of warships presented a
magnificent appearance, their white
sides %glistenirg as they moved slowly
out to sea. The people had not been
warned of the change in the hour of
departure, and few witnessed it. There
was consequently no ceremony or
demonstration Of any kind save the
dipping of flags by the merchant men
and the whistling salutes by the
launches in the bay. At S:45 o'clock
the long line had cleared Corregidor
island at the mouth of the bay, and
headed north into the China sea.
simultaneously with the departure
of the fleet the authorities of Manila
started a new campaign to eradicate
cholera. The police were ordered to
make two house-to-house inspections
daily, and the c~onstabulary, which has
been reinforced, will perform ordinary
police duty and guard infected houses.
The disinfecting force has been in
creased and the general scope of the
work broadened. Number of new
cases reported averages ten daily.

AT BANQUET.
RIVAL CANDIDATES Meet

Good Day7"-Both Make Nm
Partisan Speeches.

Chicago. Illinois.-William j. Bryan
and w. H. Taft, rival candidates for
the presidency of the United States.
met at the Fourth annual banquet Of
the Chicago Association of Commerce.
Mr.. Bryan having been in Chicago
all day, was the first to arrive. Judge
Taft, having delivered q speech at
the opening of the Deep Waterways
convention in the forenoon went to
Galesburg, and delivered another ad-
dress during the afternoon and return
ed to Chicago Wednesday night after
the banquet was well under way.
Intense interest in the meeting had
been manifested since it first became
known that the two candidates were
to meet in public and every seat in
three banquet halls at the Auditorium
hotel thrown together for the occasion
was occupied when the first curse
was served, saw only a c~ommodious
chair reserved for Judge Taft.
An ear splitting shout gave warning
of the arrival of Judge Taft. Mr..
Bryan, in common with every one else
arose and looked toward the entrance.
A huge frame moving like a ship
amongst a swarm of tugs, came slowly
up the narrow aisle between two
tables. Those at a distance occasion
ally could catch a glimpse of a smiling
face, acknowledging greetings.
Mr.. Bryan who had ceased in the
destruction of some sort of a chop
suey masquerading under a French
name turned his head slowly as his
political rival drew near, smiling
slightly.
The dramatic moment which had
been anticipated with such deep in.
terest was soon over.
Mr.. Bryan's hand awaited that OF
Mr.. Taft. A single lingering pressure,
a word or so which none could over
hear because of the tumult and the
Republican leader passed on to a chair
at the right of Mr.. Hall. The cheer
ing continued for a minute or so after
those at the speakers table had taken
their seats. e.
At the first moment the noise sub
sided, Mr.. Bryan leaning to n side
and smiling broadly, asked Mr.. Taft
if he had a good day."
This display of friendliness on the
part of the two candidates stirred the
crowd to renewed cheering and words
being useless in the din Mr.. Taft
stroked his throat for answer
The speeches of both Mr.. Taft and
Mr.. Bryan were non-partisan.
This was in with the
wishes of the Chicago Association Of
Commerce, which is a non-partisan or
ganization.

Theodore ShOnts Scores
the Curb on Railroads

Chicago, Ill.-With a singing
arraignment of commissions which at
tempt to regulate the railroad bust
ness, Theodore P. Shonts Of the Chi
cago G. Alton railroad Friday adj
dressed the members of the Lakes-to-
the Gulf Deep Waterways association
and gave them their first real 'sit-up-
and-take-notice" speech of the session.
Col. John A. Ockerson of St. Louis
was the other speaker of the day.
Mr.. Shonts characterized railroads
as the lifeblood of the nation, and
cease railroads would ultimately be-
come the prey of politicians who have
no right to be in the railroad bust
ness.
In citing the case of New York
state, Mr.. Shonts said: state regu-
lation under such a statute is in eff
feet state prohibition of new enter
prises and state operation of existing
railroads. What is the result? Trans
portation development in New York
Hungaria, but the leaders Of the war
faction cooled down after Foreign
Minister Milovanovics had made a
length statement in which he explain
ed that one reason why hostilities
we're impossible was the scarcity OF
ammunition for the new batteries
which is now being transported here,
but has been detained on the Austrian
lines.
The leaders of all the parties COM
planned earnestly that the protest to
the powers against the annexation OF
Bosnia and Herzegovina was no
couched in sufficiently strong terms,
but the foreign minister eventually
succeeded in convincing the house of
the correctness of the cabinets atti-
tude and it Is anticipated that Monday
the assembly will adopt a vote Of con-
fidence in the government.
Thus the danger point in the Balkan
crisis is passed and Servia is expected
to content herself temporarily by in
shutting a boycott against Austro-
Hungarian in the way of
revenge.
1t was stated Sunday that M. Milo
v%anovics will shortly proceed to Lon
don, Paris and Berlin to lay Servia's
claims before the powers.
A representative Of the French
foreign office has arrived here on q
special mission.
Despite the war like language Of the
crown prince on Saturday, when he
declared before the angered thousands
who had gathered at the palace that
he believed they all SOC would be
able to offer their lives in defense of
the king and the fatherland, demon
STATIONS in the streets are becoming
less numerous and less serious and
apparently the people are beginning
to realize that war would mean an
Inhalation of Servia.
Reports published abroad that a
general mobilization of the Servian
army has been ordered are incorrect.
Only the first reserves have been
called out, and it is not intended to
summon the other classes at the pre-
sent time. With the first reserves
there will be only 100000 men under
arms altogether.

The New York Central rebate cases,
in which the commodities clause of

a fraud upon the proper administra-
ton of law.
The court begins the present session
with n of the largest dockets in it's
history, there being 572 cases against
4S0 at the opening of the last term.

AS TO HONEY.

For honey, some prefer the bee.
But that is not the kind for me;
Though I admit the bee is fine
When working in the honey line,
And none denies that it Is sweet
With tea ana ca1es and bread to eat
The drop Of syrup from the rose,
The sweets that heliotropes disclose,
The luscious drafts from hollyhocks,
From lilacs and the golden phlox,
From honeysuckle, violet
Ambrosial all and yet-and yet
When radiant Chloe casts her eye
On me with glances soft and shy,
And then. when pc ones near to see,
Turns quickly and well. kiss me-
