ton with the financial disturbance The
Secretary had had the Introductory part

pamphlet were on the desks of all S.na-
tors, which was declared by Democratic
Senators to be without precedent. The
Senate devoted considerable time to pass
ing minor bills on the calendar. The

ton of the urgent deficiency appropria-
ton bill. The debate was participated in

toned the legality of the provision of the
bill appropriating $i,000.000 TO supply a

criticised Congress for its failure to make
appropriations for a merchant marine.

Dr. Leander Starr Jameson. premier
secretary for native affairs of Cape Col

offices in February, 1904. The resigna-
ton of DIR. jameson comes as a result
of the defeat of his party in the Cape
Colony parliamentary elections, which are
now in progress. The financial depression
following the war and the recent enfran-
chisement of many former rebels were
contributory causes. Although he is best
known as a raider, DIR. Jameson was
popular with all nationalities in the col
ony, and he has done more thar any 9th

Pasquale A. Patti 4 Son, had piled in the

to pay depositors on demand. The junior

away in the vaults. The score of clerks
had left the place some hours before and

not seen by the banker, were quickly lost
in the crowd of several thousand excited
Italians who gathered about the wreck,
and their motive is mystery.
