MUGH IRRITATION FELT| o e FRENCH OFFICIALS:WORRIED BY . GERMANY’S APPEARANCE IN 3 THE MEDITERRANEAN. ACTION WAS WHOLLY UfiEXFE@TED OWING TO LOCATION LATIN NA- TIONS CONSIDER IT THEIR SPECIAL SPHERE. Paris, April 3—The German advent in the Mediterranean, as shown by Emperor William’s vigit to Morocco and Chancellor von Buelow’s: speech, is the absorbing question of the, day. Herctolore France hasedealt with Gor- many on the north, but now for the first time Germany makes ler ap- bearance in the south and aaserts that she has strong iuterests in the terrifory Dordering on' the Mediter- ranean. The Latin nations, namely, Italy, Spain and France, have thus far considered tue Mgditerranean as their special sphere of activity, al- thongh Great Britain’s. control of the two gateways, Gibralfar and Suez, also give her a commanding position in the Mediterranean. Naturally, therefore, Germany’s appearance upon this exclusive field is'as unexpected as her -appearance fiat Kiaochou, China, as a factor in thie Chinese ter- ritorial question. - Theyfact that Ger- many has not a coast line on the Mediterranean, while fthe Latin na- tions have extensive cgasts, lends ad- ditional significance te Germany tering the Mediterranéan sphere.

Kaiser Declares There Is No Predom- inating Influence. . Eerlin, April 8.—The correspondent of the Vcssische Zeitung at Tangier gives another version of Emperor William’s utterances there. He says the emperor, replying to the addre of the members of the German colon said: “In an independent country such as Morocco commerce must be free. 1 will do my best to maintain its polit- ical economic equity. There is no predominating influence here.” The emperor’s, significant words have produced a lively impression here. In the fall of 1895 I.contracted that fear- ful disease, Blood Poison. It gained such headway that I was forced to resign my position and seek relief at Hot Springs. After spending all themeans I had I went to Memphis. In less than three weeks I was in a hospital, and after nine weeks of suffering I was discharged as cured. In less than a month every bone in my body seemed to be affected and felt as if they would break at the least exertion. Again I was compelled to resign, and I returned to the hospital for a seven weeks stay. When I came out I was advised to try farming. When I first went on the farm T prevailed on the only firm who handled drugs to get me one dozen bottlesof S.S. $. At that time both of my hands were broken out with blistersand I was covered with boils and sores. In themeantimemy druggist had gotten two dozen bottles of S. S.S. for me and I began its use, and after taking the thirteenth bottle not a sore or boil was visible. ~R. B. POWELL. East gth St., Little Rock, Ark.

Bank Ac: cused of Embezzlement. Elyria, O., April 3.—Cashier E.<F. Kaneen, Assistant Cashier E. B. Walk- er and Bookkeeper Dana Walker, charged with embezzling the funds of the Citizens’ Savings bank of Lorain, were brought here and placed in the county jail early in the day. Later the three men were arraigned before Justice E. C. Lord. They each plead- ed not guilty and waived a prelim- inary hearing. The justice at first was inclined to fix the surety bonds at $10,000" in each case. The attor- neys for the men under arrest strong- 1y urged that the bonds be fived at $5,000, declaring that the young men were not ordinary criminals, that thoy had made no effort to run away and had no intention of doing so. Justice Lord finally decided to fix the bonds at $6,000 in each case. PASSENGER TRAIN DERAILED. Engineer and Fireman Killed on West Shore: Road. S Ttica, N.

Albany, N. Y. April 3.—The Feb- ruary 3 health shows that cerebro spinal meningitis is on the increase. The discase is reported in sporadic form from smany places, but it is chiefly prevalent in New York city, where 18G deaths occurred during the month, against 130 in January and 95 in De- cember.

Cnrbondalo, I1l., Avr.”3.—Reports from Zeigler say that twenty miners were killed and eighteen others in- jured ‘in a gas explosion at Joseph Leiter’s coal mine there. The entire opening of the mine at the surface was wreckad. The explosion is attributed to gas, but a suspicion exists that there may have been another cause as only non-union men are employed at the mine. - GOULD DECLINES POSITION. G. R. Colton Will Be Chief of Domin- ican Collection Service. Washinglon, April 3.—It is quite probable that when Secretary Taft re- turns he will designate G. R. Colton a§ chief of the Dominican collection service and that three or more as- sistants, who have had some experi- ence in the insular possessions, will be appointed to-perform the work of collecting the Dominican under Mr. Colton’s supervision. Dr. William E. Gould of Baltimore, after discussing the matter with officials here, announced that he believed bet- ter results would be obtained by the selection of a man like Colton for chief 6t the service because of the ex- perience Colton has had in the Phil- ippines and his fami ¥ with the people, who are similar to those in San Domingo. Dr. Gould's position was that the selection of the man should be made with regard to the interests of the government and for that reason he will not acrept the position. Mr. Gould could have had one of the ubordinate poritions, but he did not care Lo g0 Lo S0 Domingo in that capacit; ! CONDITION NOT ALARMING. James J. Hill Starts Treatment.

D., Aprii 3.—Thou- sands of letters from candidates for matrimony in all parts of the United States and Canada are coming to United States Land Commissioner J. D. Keller of Bonesteel. The writers wish photographs, names, addresses and other information concerning the 121 young women who drew fine farming homesteads in the recent opening of government lands in the Rosebud Indian reservation in Gregory county, 8. D. The avalanche of letters now pour- ing in on Commissioner Keller is the result of a recently published inter- view in which Mr. Keller, in speak- ing of the rapid development of the newly opened South Dakota lands, mentioned that over a hundred of the lucky homesteaders were poung wo- men and intimated that many of them wanted hushands to help take care of the farms. The postmaster and other officials of Bonesteel have also received hun- dreds of inquiries. The letters come from men of ev- ery age and in every walk of life, from plumbers to engineers and cler- gymen. With the exception of Arl zona, Maine, New Mexico and Ne- vada, every state in the Union is sep- resented in the inquiries. The bulk of the letters, however, come from New York, Maryland, Connecticut and Pennsylvania. Plumbers and Plasterers Strike.
