Louisville, KY, Nov. 9.-Twenty-fou
hours after this city had counted up

The president arrived here after {
day in Frankfort at the dedication Of
a memorial statue of Abraham Lincoln
The Boy Scouts of the town acted as
escorts to the president and they made
a pretty picture for his parade from
the depot to the hotel by forming il
open ranks ahead of his automo bile
and waving sticks of red fire.
Earlier in the day the president and

Of Henry Watterson, a confederate sol

president to the people of his native
state. The greatness and the good

Abraham Lincoln are recognized as

Governor Wilson said the statue

The addresses of President Taft and
Governor Wilson singularly agreed in
almost identical declarations that OF

none that is calculated to bridge the
chasms of sentiment between sections

In the big crowd that saw the statue

FINE RECORD
MADE BY THE
SAN CARLOS
FIGURES ARE SUBMITTED SHOW
ING LARGE INCREASE IN RUsI-
NESS OVER THAT OF LAST
YEAR.

Relative to the tremendous increase
OF guests at the San Carlos hotel foT
eight months, beginning February LIST
and ending September S0th, the rec
ords show that In 1910 there were 49,
127 and for the same period in 1911
there were 26,051
This shows an increase this year
over last year OF 1894
The October business thus far is
considerably better than last year, and
indications point to an unusually fine
season. The great increase noted in
the business Of tho hotel this year will
be welcome news to everyone inter
ested in the hotel, the record made by
the San Carlos having been the most
remarkable OF any hotel OF its size In
the south for many years.

Enlightenment on the, Maine.
Marine Journal: With the further
unwatering of the wreck Of the battle
clearing out Of the mud, 1t is stated
that 1t has become evident beyond
doubt that this disaster was caused by
an external explosion, and that Ad
miral Capps's report which is looked
for shortly will doubtless confirm the
findings Of the Sampson court of in
quiry, as based on Powelson's testi
mony. The double bottom of the ship
has been revealed sufficiently to show
that part Of the keel is standing in a
perpendicular position some twenty
eight feet higher than it's natural po-
sition. Examination has further shown
that no regulation military mine could
have wrought the havoc evident, but
that probably a large cylinder loaded
with explosives was employed. The
engines are said to be intact, and
they possibly will be capable of ser
vice again, in consequence of the
heavy protective layer of mud which
has covered them, neutralizing the
corrosive effect of the sea water.
Fishing In Japan.
In the pursuit OF its fishing industry
as in everything else, Japan has not
been slow to adopt the most modern
methods. 1t was not until 1907 that
steam trawlers were introduced into
Japan, and this year forty one of
these vessels were in use, while it is
stated that by next year this number
will be doubled. Several trawlers are
being built at Japanese yards, and
others have recently been purchased
in England at a cost of $4,000 each.
Besides this, there are at present
about 500 motor fishing boats IN use.
The trawlers are of about $50 tons
gross and return a profit OF from 10
to 20 per cent annually.
The annual value of fish supplied
by the Kobe fish market is given as
$1,50o,ooO, while the fish supplied to
