KILLED OFF BY AMATEURS. al President Francls ;. &t 10 No More Rusineas Phetographe: for Travel “Hope you will give us your trade next vear,”” said the photo supply dealer to the man who had been running'a photograph gallery on wheels through the country dis- tricts of Long Island. The man had just paid his bill, reports the New York Tribune. “There {en't going to be any next year for me,” sald the photographer, sadly. “I've sold the old girl." He was referring to the wagon gallery. “She's being used as a lunch wagon out in Flushing." You don’t mean to say that you have glven up the business,” exclaimed the dealer. “Why, let's see, you've been at it at least ten years. What is the matter “Business 1s killed for good by the ama- teur photography craze, replied the ex- traveler, “Every other ‘country jake' has a camera of his own and is snapping every- thing in sight. A picture is just a picture to the country people. If they can get a plcture for nothing from a friend who cwns a camera they are not coming to the gallery to pay out good money for pro- fesslonal work. I've tried everything, even to lowering prices, but it does no good “Even the tintype men who have shops at the beaches are suffering from the same craze. People bring their cameras to the shore, take thelr own pictures, and many of them. The man with a mild ‘fag,’ who insists on having it photoxraphed that be may never forget it, and the ‘greenest' visitors from the backwoods are about all the tintype man has left. Lots of the boys are not going to start up next year.' “Aud what are going to do?’ asked the dealer, ““Peddle cameras and supplies through the country districts and persuade the rest of the countryside to become flends.” a 38 Tl w sl w N 9, The Oldest Newspaper. It was supposed until recently, Golden Penny. that the Kin-Pan, a Chinese journal published in Pekin for the last 1,000 vears, was the oldest newspaper in the world. In a very able work recently pub- llshed, however, Imbault Huart, the French consul at Canton, shows that this honor belongs to the Tsing-Pao, or Pékin News, which has been published continuously since the year 710 and Is even said to have heen founded some 200 years before that date, or carly in the sixth century—800 years before a newspaper was knows in Europe.

Davis to American rallway committee of the national conferances will be eubmitted the session of the confercnce on Wednes day mext. Mr. Davis suggested tha subcommittee be appointed to study his re port, but hie colleagues would not bear anything of the sort and adopted his report unanimously, Mr. Davis o his re- port that there Is nothing {mpracticabie nor vislonary in the construction of the road nor in the flotation of the necessary stock. He remarks (hat each of such sys- tems as the Penvsylvauia, the New York Central, the Atchison, the Nortbern Pacific, the Unlon Pacific, the Southern Pacific, the Southern Railway and others has a greater mileage than is now necessary to assu the realization of the intercontinental rail road, while the bonds and shares outstand ing of each of such systeme are in cxcess of the sum estimated as necessary for the con struction of the railread In question. The Russian government has just completed says the senator, a railroad through Siberia At a cost considerably In excoss of the amount estimated as necessary for the completion of the American intercons tinental rallroad. and in o doing bas over- come greater natural diffcultice than are to be looked for in the construction of the tter. Mr. Davis also refers to the great trunk lines buflt 1o recent years by Mexico. In dwelling on tbe expediency of con- structing an intercontineéntal raflroad Mr Davis mentioned the fact that some of the South American delegates in order to reach Mexico for the present Pan-Amerfcan con ference had to make the journey via Europe or New York. A letter mailed fn the United States for some of the South American republics goes first to Europe and thence to its destination. Mr. Davis esti- mates the mileage of the intercontivental railroad to Le constructed at 5.000 miles tn order to link existing systems and calou- tes the cost at $200.000,000, or at the rate of $40.000 per mile. The report terminates with the following recommendations Detalls of the Sy says em.

H. Meale: an American miner who has brought come plaint to the Amerlean ambarsador regard- ing alleged {ll-treatment by offeclals and Jndges In northeastern Mexico. Ambassador Clayton has followed the cage oarefully in all its phases. The matter i a complicated cne and a charge is made against Mea that he is in contempt of court for the sub- traction of papers in a mining litlgation which were part of the court records. Thesn papers were finally returned on demand of the court and ha is charged with having wilitully withheld papers which had been turned over to him by his lawyers Mealey has heen released on ball and has appealed to the federal circuit court in this ity and it 1s expected the matter will soon be heard. Mealey's charge that he was confined In jall at Monterey with mur derers and thieves is denled here. Aftor an hour and a half in the general cell with petty offenders, it is said, he was removed to one of the offices of the command of the prison and allowed to have his own bed sent to him. Letters trom Mealey on file at the embassy show that he was grateful for the Kindness shown to him by the priron officials. Mealey complained again that at Cludad Porfiro Diaz he was thrown into a foul cel, but the United States consul at that place has reported to the embassy that the cell was clean and as good as any in that prison Ambassador Clayton has, it is claimed incurred the enmity of Mealey and his friends because of the ambassador's refusal to take alleged unproved charges to P Ident Didz. The ambassador says he could not ask the government to sel aside the de- cislons of the highest court of the land, but whatever was possible to be done (o aid Mealey has been done.
