CHAPTER I.
 FITS A GIRLn'

Bank building, the gaunt young man with the stern features and the kindly gray eyes that always seemed perpet- ual rebuke to the face in which they were set ruminated over the letter he held in his hand. His back was to the Fdoor-a half glass door which was also tf e main and only entrance to the room and which bore upon its trans lucent surface in ragged letters, worn by the polishing the glass had under gone, the words, Daniel Voorhees, Pike, Attorney at Law"
 Pike himself had a queer twist of feature, sort of whimsicality that pervaded the very atmosphere about him, and the smile with which he re- garded the letter he held had a world of reminiscence and sadness in 1t.
 As he gazed at it the letter seemed to. fade into nothingness, and in its place there rose the picture of day years before, day that caused the dingy walls of the office to become tenuous and gauzy, and through the gauge he seemed to see another office a ramshackle sort of place, with a tin sign showing through the window which informed the passerby that real estate was the commodity dispensed within. To Pike the picture grew yet more distinct, and in the broken bot tom cane chair he saw the figure of heavy faced man in his shirt sleeves engaged in smoking corncob pipe.
 In another corner of the room he could see red headed boy boring over pine table. laboriously copying in a round hand some title deeds. Then, through the reaches of the past, he seemed to hear the heavy faced man remove the pipe from his mouth and heard him speak.
 "Dan," he said. tits a girlr'
 And he heard the gasp the boy gave forth as he turned about on his stool

'Turopew he said at last.
 Europe" he replied. Say, Tom. you remember Jim Cooley? They sent Jim over there, didn't theyf Made him vice consul or something over in London? I'd maybe get chance to see Jim and talk to him aboHt-about old times"
 His voice died down, and he regarded the wall again.
 Never happened to hear of folks over there of the name of-of Flaw castle. did you, TomT' he went on. 'I don't know what sort of business they are in, but guess they're well to do. Never happened to hear of them, eh?'
 Perkins shook his head, and Pike went on:
 ;. "Maybe I'll write to Jim Cooley and ask him about these people. Jim d be likely to know 'em. guess Vice con- sul must be a pretty big bug over there."
 Law case7" asked Perkins suddenly.
 "Sort of," answered Pike quietly. '1 don't know that I'd call it just that. Perhaps the trip would be a change anyway. And I'd like to see this man Newcastle" Where does this HaWcastle Two asked Perkins.
 England. Got house he calls Newcastle Hall"
 What about the K. and G.~ asked Perkins suddenly. "I guess the K. and G. win have to wait awhile..'' Perkins stood up resoIutely and faced his friend. +-'--.

 She's going to be Ethel, Dan, that bundle of infancy And maybe some of these days she'll be getting herself in tight place, and it's going to be up to you, Dan, to help her out, and you're going to promise me that you'll do it, boy.

TRADE DISTURBED
IN LATIN AMERICA
REPORT MADE DY BUREAU OF
REPUBLICS
Serious Falling of in imports Bal
anced by Increased Exports-TotaI
Business Decreased Since
Previous Year

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4-Economic
causes which affected commercial cen
ters throughout the world during 1908
have had a serious effect on the coun-
tries composing the International I'm
ion of American Republics. as shown
by figures compiled by the internation-
al bureau of American republics.
The aggregate of trade for the vari-
Gus countries during 1908 was $4,S4S,
019,947, against Sc, AIS, 79S197 in the pre-
ceding year, a loss of $550000,000. In
the total for the year the share of the
United States is represented as $685.
2S2, ,92S, as compared with $3,346, ,596, 025
in 1907 a decrease of SAT-, ,313,097 being
indicated.
Latin-America figured in the grand
total for $1,977 737,019, showing a de-
cline of $S9, SAT ,5S9 in the trade volume
as compared with 1907. Imports into all
of Latin-America during 1908 showed a
decline of $1O7,043,S54, while on the
other hand exports show gain of $15,-
578,701 over 1907.
The figures show that in spite of GER
tain adverse conditions in the financial
world the demand for articles of Latin
American origin created trade bal
ance in favor of the producing coun-
tries to the extent of $191, ,229023, to
which extent the exports for the year
exceeded the imports. In the year S
total for Latin-America the United
States share was S46S, ,216, 455, as COM
pared with S55S, 279,201 in 1907.

RAW HIDES WILL BE FREE
WHILE LEATHER GOODS PAY
Concurrent Resolution Reported to
Senate from Finance Committee
by Senator Aldrich

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-The CON
current resolution making corrections
in the leather schedule of the tariff
bill was reported to the senate from
the finance committee by Senator Aid
rich today. The resolution changes
paragraph 450 to read as follows:
"Hides of cattle, raw or uncured,
whether dry, salted or picked, shall be
admitted free of duty
provided that on and after October
l, 1909, grain, buff and split leather
shall pay a duty of ~ per cent ad
ValOrem; that all boots and shoes made
wholly or in chief of leather made from
cattle hides and cattle skins of what
ever weight or hides of the bovine spe-
cies, including calf skins, shall pay a
duty of 10 per cent ad valorem; that
harness, saddles and saddlery, in sets
or in parts, finished or unfinished, com
posed wholly or in chief value of leath-
er, shall pay duty of 20 per cent ad
Valorem."
This resolution will be acted upon
after the conference report has been
disposed Of
From the same committee Mr. Nc
Cumber reported another concurrent
resolution providing that the drawback
provision of the tariff bill should not
apply to all cake manufactured from
imported flax seed, and also regulating
the control of bonded warehouses.

DR.. Mcdonald, "and not medically ir

Attacks Whites Morality

Thaw says when he killed White he
may have been illegally insane" but
denied he ever was medically insane
Mr.. Morschauser asked DIR. Mcdonald
If a paronoiac should realize his de-
lusions were delusions would 1t not lie
evidence of recovery.
Yes" said the witness, ''if he were
honest in acknowledging his mistake.
Thaws attorney had the expert go on
record as saying if the allegations OF
Thaw against White and his friends
were substantiated he would believe
Thaw had no such delusions.
Mr. Morschauser said portions of
Jeromes summing up at the trial UP
held Thaw's charges and said he would
put the district attorneys speech in
evidence and use it in his closing argu-
ment.
Assuming" said Mr.. Morschauser,
that it is true that White and a crowd
of degenerates kept the two places
described by Thaw's wife for immoral
purposes, would that justify Thaw in
adherng to his belief?"
at Is not true" broke in Jerome.
"There is no such evidence"
II have the evidence" said Morschau-
ser calmly, land I'll introduce it later" "

will never vote for a revision that
does not follow, or attempt to follow,
these line of economic thought"
Challenging Mr.. Cummins' statement
that there had been no substantial re-
duction in the bill, Mr.. Aldrich de-
clared that there had been 500 reduc-
tions of rates. 1t would be impossible
he said, to show that these rates were
above a reasonable protective point.
Concluding his remarks Mr.. Cummins
reiterated that he would vote against
the conference report.
Senator Daniel renewed his COM
plant that he and other Democratic
members of the finance committee had
been excluded from a fair participation
in the consideration of the bill He
reiterated that he and his colleagues
had been promised "a day" in which
to cast their vote against the report
and had been denied it by Mr.. Aldrich.
Every amendment offered to the con-
current resolution to correct the con-
ference tariff report. so as to make
reductions in boots and shoes and har-
ness and saddlery apply to manufac-
lures from calfskin as we'll as leather
hides heretofore dutiable, probably
will be laid on the table.
Schedule Is PadIocked
Senators who desire to have changes
made in the conference report called
on Senator AldriCh today with requests
that he lend his influence towards the
accomplishment of such changes, but
uniformly he replied that the resOlu-
tion could not be opened up to cover
subjects other than the leather sched-
ules and the necessary changes in the
maximum and minimum provision.
An agreement has been entered into
between Senator Aldrich and other
senate leaders with leaders in the
house by which Mr.. Aldrich will under
take to defeat all of the amendments
mentioned as we'll as any other prop
osition which may be submitted.
Mr.. Payne said today that he did
not anticipate any difficulty in getting
the resolution through the house.

NEW YORK, Aug. 4.-Fears Of a
disastrous explosion in the United

fined principally to the machinery used
in planting submarine mines.
