4 NOT DISMAYED BY THE NEW TARIFFS British Manufacturers Say They Expected Higher Duties. German Makers of Cutlery Will Suffer More Than the English, Elaborate Preparations for the Open- | Air Celebration of the Dia- mond Jubilee. LONDON, Exe., March 27.—Collating opinions from various centers interested in the incidents of the McKinley tariff the representative here of the Unitea As- sociated Presses finds in no quarter any- { thing approaching the dismay which fell | upon the British traders when tne tariff | of 1890 was announced. The new tariff bas been scanned, of course, with the | greatest interest, but almost with confi- | dence. 1t conveyed no shock or surprise. | Indeed, reports rather indicate an agree- able relaxation of the tension which ex- | isted pending the publication of the | main proposals, W. H. Herlby, M. P. for Blackburn, one | of the largest cotton-spinners in Lan-( | | | cashire, says that the changes will not af- fect cotton industries in any material way. The current opinion Manchester is the same. Sheffield reports that the cutlery trade will notbe *4n_a much than under the Wilson act.”” One of the | principal cutlery manufacturers goes so far as to say that the new billis a step in the diréction of the bringing aboutofa | more honest system of business; that the | object of the American manufacturers | was obviously to stop the tremendous | competition they experienced from the ! Germans, who, through a system of low n Liverpool and worse. position | valuations, really defeated the objsct of | the present tariff bill. America was thus | floodea with cheap German-made goods. | The revision would chiefly affect the low- | priced goods, and, while affecting cheap | Sheffield products in common with the | German, would place Sheffield in a good | position for meeting German cheap com- petition. Another large cutlery firm says it may bother the Germans, who cultivate a tr: with America in the cheapest and nasty goods. Generally speaking, he holds tnat it will make no practical difference to the Sheflield trade. Leeds reports that the new tariff will oe | prohibitive as far as some classes of woolen fabrics exported to the United States are | concerned. Worsteds will be hit heavily, | and 20 Bradford and Huddersfield willnot | suffer much. But stringent as the tariff | is it does not take the Leeds manufac- | turers by surprise. Leeds expected as much, and the manufacturers are rather gratined than otherwise by a relief from | uncertainty. The tenor of the reports | from Birmingham, Glasgow and Dundee | issimilar. It should be added that every | center records a run of orders from the | United States to be delivered before re- | vised duties go into operation. What pressure sportingmen in Parlia- ment can bring to bear upon the Govern- | ment to support a bill for legalizing bet- | ting in the ring has been tried without | success. | The licensing of bookmakers commends | itself to many members who see no harm | in legal recognition of a practice which | may be called national. But no Govern- | ment could stand the hurricane of re- | proach which would arise from the solemn | body of electors, whose influence when | aroused decides the fate of governments. | A bill will be introduced by private mem- bers and will get strong support, but no minister will venture to support it in his | ministerial capacity, and if the measure gets to-a second reading its rejection is certain. The bookmakers' shop is sum- marily closed and probably forever. If the anti-betting leagne follows up its vic- tory betting as now practiced by nearly all classes will become impoasible. A new London daily paper, something on the line of the New York Herald’s London venture, is projected and will ap- pear early in April. The builders are well on with their work at St. Panl’s for the opan-air thanks- giving meeting of the Queen’s diamond jubilee. As yet the piles of scaffolding conceal the intended improvements. Un- less the roof is used for coigns of vantage in sight-seeing very few of the public will see any of the ceremony. There are singularly few windows in the vicinity from which it would be possible to get a full view of the Queen at the service. The space around Queen Anne's statue will be occupied by distinguished guests. ‘When the present activity of ths ad- miraity has subsidea Mr. Goschen intends to return favorably to the consideration of _ the dispatch of another exploring expedi- tion to the Antarctic Ocean. Everybody now recognizes that such an undertaking would have the best chances of success if carried on with the active assistance of the admiralty, assisted by scientific experts. 1t is quite likely that a suitable ship will be commissioned shortly for the purpose. The next expenses clause of the Ama- teur Athletic Association’s law is still a source of heartbrrning to disqualified amateurs and to stricter “‘gentlemen ath- letes.”” The proposed rules legalizes the | funding of an actual out-of:pocket hotel and traveling expenses to men who may be taking part in competitions at a dis- tance, and even then the payment must be made presumably by the club sending the competitor and not by the elab pro- moting the sports. Whatever else the rule is the association is sure that itis not the thin edge of a wedge toward breaking up amateur statutes. The farewell dinner to Sir Alfred Milnes, the new Governor of Cape Colony, to-night presented a notable burying of the hatchet among rivals in public life. Round the ame friendly table at the Cafe Monico were Chamberlain, Mr. Balfour, Lord Rosebery, Sir William Harcourt, the Marquis of Lansdowne, Vissount Peel, Sir John Morley and others. Mr. Asquith, an old college friena of Bir Alfred Milnes, presiaed. Time has healed the bitterness of the home-rule battles with most men, but between Mr, Cham- berisin and Lord Rosebery and the latter and Sir William Harcourt there have as yet been only the stiffest courtesies and bitter-sweet public allusions. The average cost of criminal proseou- tions in England at present is £33 each. 1 | George T.

Eiilivgeis ] AID SENT FROM SEATTLE. Steamer Dispatched to Pick Up the | Wrecked Willapa's Passengers and Carry Them to Juneau.

Purser | | Laforge sald that the vessel would be a total loss. C. B. Roberts is still at the scene of the wreck. The Alaska Steamship Company has en- gaged tbe steamer Edith to pick up the Willapa's passengers at Bella Coola and take them on to Juneau. NANAIMO, B. C, March 27.—The steamer William was enshrouded in a snowstorm on Friday, March 19, when it drifted upon the rocks. It wasbound for Alaskan ports from Seattle and bad on board a full cargo of freight and passen- gers. The scene of the wreck is one of the most dangerous localities on the nortbern coast. Ivis eight miles from Bella Coola and betwsen two islets known as Dalplatz and Grassie. The Willapa’s engines were not working at the time and the vessel was barely in motion. The shock when the steamer’s timbers crunched against the jagged rocks was in consequence so slight that many of the passeugers never left their bunks until ad- vised of their predicament. Captain Roberts was at the wheel and Pilot _Jenson,'who had been in charge, had just retired when the accident oc- curred. All took the affair very coolly and for some time believed the steamer would free itself. So firmly convinced of this were .they | that no attempt was made to send any { one ashore until about 10 o’clock. . Pilot | Jenson started for Bella Coola with the only two women who were aboard. Pilot Jenson returned from Bella Coola | with & number of Indian canoes to assist in the work, and at 11 o’clock all the pas- sengers were on shore. - At the time of the accident the tide was falling rapidly, and at the extreme lowest | stage the steamer lay over on its star- board bilge, resting heavily witn its big load on some pointed rocks. By 11 o’clock the flood tide almost com- pletely covered the wreck. The crew worked with might and main to save as much of the cargo as possible, and while i i 0 4, A 147 7 A q IZZET BEY, TURKEY’S MOST POWERFUL SUBJECT.

He had persuaded Abdul Hamid thas for hislife. Izzet was then in the Sultan’s the concert of Europe mainly existed in the articles of newspapers and in the imaginations of simple folk. He nad occupied the post of Minister o1 Justice, and his dealings with foreigners had shown such flagrantly corrupt metnods and such vile injustice that the Sultan was forced to remove him at the demand, almost, of the French Embassador. This, notwithstanding the fact that Izzet sffected a great love for the French, and that his three sons are now being educated in Parisian schools. When Said Pasha fell the Sultan was free to select Izzet as nd the wily Arab has managed to absord to himself all the imperial functions ception only of the grand affairs of state, and his influence is readily recognized in most of these.

LOS ANGELES, CAv., March 27.—Mary Ann Mier says she hears spirits. She im- agines iier dead child comes back ana talks with her, and her mind is otherwise | disturbed. The unfortunate woman ap- peared before Judge Allen to-day, and after an examination of her case it was de- cided to send her to Highlands Asylum. Mrs. Mier lived at the home of Mrs. J. E. Ellis, 139 San Pedro street. Some time ago she lost her youngest child and since then has been in habit of daily vis- iting spiritualists, who made her believe that she was receiving communications from the dead. These frequent visits in- variably aggravated her disease, and at last she became very violent. The woman is 47 years of age. e SR City Employes to Be Discharged. LOS ANGELES, CAL., March 27.—The vanishing of funds from the city treasury has created a condition and not a theory which it is now believed will be met next Monday by the discharge of fifty men now on the city’s payroll. The worst sufferers will be the members of the street force. This department is the only one that will aamit of any great cut, as it is the only one in which a con- | siderable number of men are empioyed. In other departments a man may be dropped here and there, but the main cut will be one of from 15 to 25 per cent in selaries. Dethrones a | ! LOS ANGELES DECISION. Hotel-Keepers Declared Not Liable for Froperty Lost in Fires by Guests, LOS ANGELES, Cair, March 27.—A | suit of great importance to hotelmen and lodging-house-keepers has just been de- cided here. It involves the rights of guests to recover the value of personal property, such as wearing apparel and jewelry, which may have been destroyed by fire while they were occupants of the building, and the proverty was in the safekeeping of the landlord, The case was tried in Judge Allen’s de- | partment of the Superior Court, able counsel having been employed by both sides. The action was brought by George T. Harris, who sought to recover $1500 from Walter Raymond. Hurris sued be- cause his clothes, diamonds and . jewelry were lost in the Raymond Hotel fire two yoars ago. Judge Allen’s decision was in fayor of Raymond. The plaintiff’s contention was that Landlord Raymond had not provided his hotel with the necessary safeguards against the destruction by fire of his guests’ prop- erty, and for that reason should pay the value of such property lost to its owner. Raymond showed that he had made provision against the destuction of the building, but owing to the great headway the fire attained before it was discovered little or nothing could be done to avert the disaster, the hotel being outside of the fire limits of Pasadena. —_— .

GREEKS CLAMOR FOR WAR Continued from First Page. an area of some 15,000 square miles only. The same conference—that of Berlin in 1878—that stripped Turkey of her north- ern provinces gave to Greece a good part of | Thessaly and Epirus,making her area 25,000 | square miles and adding & population of nearly half a million, which with the nat- | ural increase, will give King Georze a | total of nearly two and a quarter millions of subjects at the present time. Bnt these | are not all he can with a certainty count upon in case of war. The whole ZEgean seaboard, as well as the eastern shores of the Black Sea, is occupied by Greeks, who, though nowinally the subjects of the Sul- tan, are at heart loyal to King George, hoping and praying for the time when all the Greek communities will be united into one, as of old, and under the scepter of a Christian King of the Hellenes. This common hope for the future, a common language, common traditions and a common religion, bave made the Greeks a nation 1n spite of the treaties and tolerances on the part of the great Christian powers that have kept two and a half millions of them under the rule of the Turk for nearly a century after the logic of events had proved that it could not sustain itself unaided on European soil. Mutual jealousy and misdirected diplo- macy have made the powers of Europe responsible for the long years of oppres- sion and cruelty that these people have been made to suffer at the hands of their Moslem masters. Those who are determined upon a con- tinuance of this policy may well fear the results of King George’s manly persist- ency. Once begun, the war will end in proving that all the time, talent and treas- ure expended on the BEastern question have not been able to stay the natural course of events. King George's allies within the dominions of the Sultan will not be confined to the Greeks there resi- dent, and the Sultan at the same time will have but little loyal support against him from his subjects. Though not Greeks by race, the larger part of the rest of the people are Greek in religion, and incited by the success of their brethren and former cc-slaves of the Sultaa in Ser- via, Bulgaria and other countries, are only too ready to strike a blow for the Cross as against the Crescent and at the same time for their own freedom from the rule of the Asiatic Osmanli. The Sultan’s European subjects of the Turkish race, some 1,200,000 in number all told, live for the most part in the east- ern portion of Roumelia intermixed with the Greeks and Slavs. Nearly a fourth of them are to be found in Constantinople and the vicinity. There are also some scattered communities about Salonica, Servia, Monastie and other towns of Mace- donia. Besides these and the Greeks the majority of the rest of the people are Slavs by race and Greek Catholic in relig- ion, acknowledging the ecclesiastical jur- isdiction of the Patriarch of the Greek church at Athens.

There are no Turksamong them, the last community among them having taken their departure from the gountry some years since.

Some. timés it is often hard to tell is dead or alive. We hear of people who have been buried alive. A ‘man must be com- glelely dead befo- ope should abandoned. Ituse to be trme thau when a man found he had consump- tion, he gave up immediately. Con!um‘p- tion'was considered a necessarily fatal -dis- ease. It:was considered incurable. Assoon as it developed enough so that a physicias could decide that it was really consumption, the patient was considered as good as dead. Years ago, Dr. Pierce found out that con- sumption was not incurable, that it was not necessarily fatal. He not only found this out, but he found out a way to cure con- sumption. ~He introduced his “Golden Medical Discovery.” The ‘ Discovery’ will cure g8 per cent. of all cases of con- sumption if it is taken according to direc- tions, Comsumption is a discase of the blood. It is caused by impoverishment of the blood, and by the existence of disease- erms in the system. If the body is per- ¥ecfly strong and healthy, and the biood fectly pure, germs are easily thrown off. Pt ‘the body is weak, if the tissues are in- capable of much resistance, the germs find a resting place and develop. That's the mption begins. e Medical Discovery searches out the germs, forces them out of the system and cures consumption and other kindred diseases of the throat, bron- chia and lungs. No doubt about it, no ques- tion about it. It has donme it in hkundreds and thousands of cases. The “Discovery” is sold at drug stores.
