NEW YORK. Aug. 28.-American interests in Nicaragua are almost wholly represented by J. and w. Seligman and company. and Brown Brothers and company, who several years ago received a charter to es- tablish in that country a national bank in which some government was to be a large stockholder. These bankers also offered to loan Mica ragua s15 900. subject to the ap p- rroyal of the Nicaraguan congress and the congress of the United States. The latter withheld its ap- proval whereupOn the bankers made a temporary loan of $1,5O0,OOO to meet Nicaragua's more pressing needs
 For this loan the bankers received as a part of the collateral, the righ: to collect customs at all Nicaraguan ports. naming their own representa- lives. Shortly after the present reVo- lution broke out it was discovered that some S20,000,000 of Nicaraguan paper money, representing by reason Of it's debased standard, perhaps ST. GOO 900 of United States currency had been issued. presumably by reVolu tionists without the knowledge of the government.
 Many claims of various characters are pending against Nicaragua. the largest being that of an English banking syndicate for about S15,OOO, 900. Other claims include damages arising to mining, industrial and railroad concessions. most of which it is understood, have been revoked by the general now commanding the revolutionary forces.

NEW YORK, Aug 28.-C. D. Hilles, chairman of the republican national committee, issued a statement today covering an alleged agreement be- tween Taft representatives and Will ham Finn. representing Roosevelt in Pennsylvania.
 He said: We have received proposition from Finn in which he has offered to withdraw the Roose- welt electors from the republican ticket and substitute the Taft electors m their places The offer was made by Finn in Philadelphia last We'd nesday to Henry G. Wasson, republ- can state chairman and w. T. Tilden. president of the Uuion League club Of Philadelphia
 Hilles said according to Wasson, MT Film said that Colonel Roose- welt at Chicago had placed him in charge of matters in Pennsylvania and that he was willing to erase the Roosevelt electors names and re- place them with representatives of republicans who would vote for Taft. He said before he could do this he must obtain signatures to a petition naming Roosevelt electors on the Washington ticket.
 As the state law requires three per cent of the total vote Finn es- timated that it would take nearly the whole month of September to pre- pare the petitions.
 T assume that Film is able to Gc this, and that he will do it in good faith, said Hilles. Our only objection to the Finn republican state ticket now is that it has the names of Roosevelt men on it as electors. With these removed we would not oppose any of the rest of the ticket"

Found Use for SaWdust.

In the consideration of a change
from steam to electric drive in a St.
Paul (Minn.) saw and box mill, the
one stumbling block was the matter
of the disposition of the sawdust ac-
oulnulated about the machinery. I'm
der the old system this was made use
of under the boilers. and thus it saved
the expense of fuel and of being car
ried away, but the problem was event
ually solved by the erection of a stor-
age house where the sawdust was
stored in the shape of bales and dis
posed of during the winter, when it
demanded higher price than could
be secured in the summer. In win
ter the material is in demand for bed
ding in stables. The change from
steam to electricity proved to be a
desirable one from every standpoint
after the matter of the disposal of the
refuse was solved in this manner.

orIain of Salt In Ocean.

The origin of the salt in the sea is
usually attributed to the constant
washing of salts from the land by
rain and rivers, and the gradual de-
posting of them in the sea, through
evaporation. In every 100 parts of
sea water there are about two and
one-half parts of salt. 1t has been
computed that there are 4,500000
cubic miles of rock salt in the oceans,
14h times the bulk of the continent
of Europe above high-water mark.
The AtlanticEis much saltier than the
other oceans. Prof. Alexander Woei-
kow. of st. Petersburg. believes that
this is due to the large amount of
water vapor that is carried onto the
continents bordering this ocean,
which are comparatively low where

WOMAN GOT A LESSON
INCIDENT OF TWO GIRLS AND
THE STOLEN PEoNlES.
How the ShabblIy Dressed Man Ad-
mlnistered Gentle But Effective Re-
proof to the Owner of tho
PIlaged Brooklyn Garden.

Two poorly dressed little girls
stood outside the garden of a hand
some residence in st. Marks avenue
Brooklyn, and gazed longingly at the
beautiful white and scarlet peonies
that bloomed within. Finally the
temptation became irresistible, and
the elder, scaling the low hedge that
separated the garden from the street,
proceeded to help herself to the flow
ers.
She had two of the blooms in her
hands and was reaching for a third
when a smartly dressed woman
dashed out of the house and seized
her.
Now, you little thief, I'm going
to turn you over to the police" she
said.
ooh, please, missus." begged the
child, groveling at her feet; "oh,
please don't get me arrested I only
wanted a few-and they looked so
pretty"
But the woman was adamant. She
was slowly dragging the child to-
ward the sidewalk and repeating her
threat about the police when a shah
by looking man came along. He
gazed at the two for an instant, while
an expression of panied surprise
came over his face. Then, raising his
dingy derby politely, he inquired
what the trouble was
Nothing" snapped the woman, Tex
cept that l caught this little thief
stealing my peonies. And I'm going
to teach her lesson If | have to take
her to the station house myself"
A curious look came into the shah
by mans eyes. Then he began to
tumble in his pockets. A few seconds
later he held out to the woman an
open palm on which two dimes re-
posed.
IF these1l pay for what damage
she's done, I wish you'd take them
and let her 60" he said.
An indignant blush spread over the
woman's face. and then it deepened-
into a blush of shame. She relaxed
her grasp on the little girls arm and
there she paused and turned toward
the shabby one, who still held the two
dimes in his hand:
I'm sorry" she said. "and-I
thank you."-New York Evening
Mail.
