In the same report the receiver says that for the present it is not pro- posed to prosecute the directors of the Lordon and Globe company for misfeas- ance. The city, however, is displaying the group of companies and the demand that the Public Prosecutor act is increasing. A special petition has been circulated on the Stock Exchange and signed by many influential men, demanding the prosecu- tion of Wright and Lemai, and it is co; sidered that the credit of the city and he Stock Exchange demands a thorough investigation of the London and Glone methoas of finance.

IMPURE WATER CAUSES SICKENESS AMONG TROOPS Chief Surgeon of Philippine Army Reports Several Cases of Cholera Among Americans. WASHINGPON, Aug. 7.—Surgeon Gen- eral Forwood to-day received a report frem Lieutenant Colonel Harvey, chief surgeon of the division of the Philippines, giving a detailed account of the health of the troops in those islands for the month erded June 15 last. The report shows a considerable in- crease in the percentage of sick as com- pared with the previous month. In the South Philippines sickness has increased in gquarters, siation hospitals and depart- ment hospitals, but the report says the reason for this cannot be indicated at this time. Cholera has attacked two officers and y-two Americans and one native soi- Most of these cases occurred at na and Batangas. The cause in the majority of cases has been the drinking of impure water, and a few cases were due to food contaminated either by hand- Iing or by flles. In Samar and Leytle some cases are reported, but the disease has not spread widely. In the Camarines the epidemic seems to have been stamped out, but in Laguna and Batangas and the adjacent parts of the province of Tayabas cholera has spread in virulent epidemic form, many cases having occurred with- out report. Outside of Manila a total of 59%7 cases have been reported, with 4200 deaths. In the city there have been 1350 cases, with 110¢ deaths. Colonel Jiarvey says that the si: dier. | additicnal demand Upon medical officers has been met in the most satisfactory manner. The report says the people in the small towns are very ignorant. They consider cholera a visitation of Provi- dence, and cannot be induced to take proper precautionary measures. . During the month covered by the report the total sick was 2265, being 7 per cent of the command present, 31,050, and dur- ing the same period there were 79 deaths, including 37 from cholera and one killed in action. bl PREDICTS ANOTHER WAR IN THE TRANSVAAL Son of Former Secretary Reitz Says Trouble Will Be Revived With- in a Few Years.

CHICAGO, Aug. 7.—Petitions were filed in the United States Circuit Court to-day asking that Frank.R.

LONDON, Aug. 7.—The following mes- sage from King Edward to his people was made public to-night: 5 To my people: On the eve of my coronation, an event which I look upon as one of the most solemn and important of my life. I am anxious to express to my people, at home and in the colonfes and in India, my heartfelt appreciation of the deep sympathy they have manifested toward me during a time in my life of such imminent danger. The postponement of the coronation ceremony, owing to my lliness, has caused, 1 fear, much inconvenience and trou- ble to all who intended to celebrate it. But their disappointment has been borne by them with udmirable patience and temper. The prayers of my people for my recovery were heard, and I now offer up my deepest gratitude to divine Providence for having pre- served my life and given me strength to fulfill the fmportant dutles which devolve upon me as sovereign of this great empire. EDWARD, R. and L Buckingham Palace, August 8. King Edward's proclamation is a per- sonal and spontaneous expression of his Majesty’s feelings. It was conceived and written by himself in an autograph letter to the Home Secretary. In addressing this communication to the Home Secre- tary the King is following the traditions observed by the late Queen Viectoria when she addressed personal messages to the nation. King Edward did not drive out to-day. A large crowd had gathered outside Buck- ingham Palace in expectation of their Majestie§ taking a drive, and the King, whowas lunching in one of the front rooms of the building, came to-a window in full view of the people, who cheered him enthusiastically. The King bowed his acknowledgments. It had been expected that his Majesty would visit Westminster Abbey to-day, but he did not do so.

Santa Fe Office, 641 Mar- street. - Mrs. Daniel and her brother have been cducated by the aged captain and his wife. The latter have looked upon them as their children and in time they would have inherited their wealth. A year ago the nephew married a charming San Francisco girl, much against the wishes of his uncle. In time he became recon- ciled to the marriage and it is believed the captain will soon come to look kindly upon the latest marriage. Mr. Daniel is well known in this city. He is senior member of the firm of Dan- lel & Pancoast, stonecutters. The bride is an accomplished and prepossessing young woman. She has traveled exten- B:Velly and is very popular in local social circles. i e i i S S S S Y GEAMAN WRITER PRAISES AMERICH Says Our Business Men Lead in Industrial Organization. BERLIN, Aug. 7.—M. Goldberger, a royal privy Councilor of Commerce, who recently visited the Unitel States, will end a series of articles on that country in Die Woche on Sunday. This article quotes President Roosevelt in an inter- view with Herr Goldberger at the White House as saying: “The economic future belongs to the United States and Ger- many and the welfare of both countries lies in Intelligent mutual esteem.” Herr Goldberger makes comparisons be- tween Germany and the United States, . and says that one thing certain is that the sharpest competition will be made by thAe United States for the world’s market. ‘We must unconditionally admit,” say# the writer, “that in the art of industrial organization, in disciplined co-operation, in the raduction of cost of production, in the utilization of every advantage at- talnable by mechanical development, without regard to cost, we find eyond the Atlantic abundant models.” The writer declares that he found the Americans marvelously, almost uncan- nily, informed about events and facts con- cerning international trade production, A practical lesson for Germany, he contin- ues, is to give free play to econamic forces; to reduce government meddling, to remove prejudices against innovations and to introduce the best features of the American trust, eschewing capitalization promises. —_— Geologists to Investigate Discovery.

British' Government Is Said to Have Chartered the \ Corinthic. —_— " LONDON, Aug. 7.—Replying in - the House of Commons to-day to a request of Lord Charles Beresford for assurance that no binding agreement would be con- cluded between the Government and the spectal commission without the agreement being approved by Parliament, the Pre- mier, A. J. Balfour, said: “I do not think it possible to negotiate on this or any other subject if the pro- posed terms are to be publicly discussed before the Government has agreed (o them. The Government, however, is most { anxious to take the House into its con- | fidence at the earli®st possible moment.” Balfour's reply has particular interest, as Belfast dispatches to-day announce that the Government accepted J. P. M | gan’s offer to give the Admiralty | claim on all the combine’s ships. As evi- | dence of the acceptance it is stated that | the Government has chartered the Corin- | thic, the first ship built for the combine, { which has just %een completed at the | Harland-Wolf shipyards, Inquiries made show that the belef is general that J. P. Morgan's offer practi- cally has been accepted by the Govern- | ment. The Belfast dispatch may slightly anticipate the technicalities required t6 | close the agreement, or may not allow for | changes inserted since the offer was orig- | inally made, but there appears to be little | doubt that the spirit of the scheme is ac- | ceptable to the Cabinet. J. P. Morgan & | Co. when asked concerning the reported | agreement maintained the same non-com- mittal attitude as Premier Balfour.

CHICAGO, Aug. 7.—Lying in the grass of a vacant lot, and but a few feet from | the cable track of the State-street line, | on which thousands of people passed the | place every hour, the body of a dead wo- ! man was found to-night. The corpse | was entirely destitute of clothing and | none of the garments were found in the | Vieinity. The body was in such a condition that it was impossible to tell whether or not there were any marks upon it which would indicate violence. The police are firmly of the belief that the woman was murdered and her body placed where it was found to-night. 86 S Intrigues of the King of Siam.

They un- derstand that ice is ice and cannot be any colder or warmer. a thermometer is buried in fce in summer it will indicate 32 degrees. If You throw a plece of ice into bofling wa- ter and leave it there till it is almost gore, what is left will still be at 32 de- grees. Ice can never be got above that temperature. But while ice can never be warmed above 32 degrees, it will go as much be- low that as the weather does. An ice man delivering ice one zero day in Janu- ary was asked whether his ice was any colder than in July. He thought not. But |as a matter of fact a plece of summer ice, if he had had it, would have been something of a foot warmer for him, as it would have been 30 degrees warmer thar the air of the bottom of his ‘wagon. Mixing salt with ice makes it much cocler. The ice in an icd cream freezer gaes down to about zero. This is why the point zero on our common thermometers was fixed where it is. It was supposed to he the lowest point which could be reached by artificlal means. Since then we have reached about 383 degrees below zero, by chemical processes. Ice will cool down with everything else, on a cold night, to zero or below. What should prevent it? On a day when it is Jjust freezing a block of fron and a block of ice outdoors will stand at 32 degrees. f the weather grows warmer the iron will warm with the weather, but the ice will stay at 32 degrees, and melt away. But if the weather grows colder the iron and the ice will cool off, too, and one Just as mufih ?s the other. & As the ice grows colder it gets harder and more brittle. ere can be no “hick- ory bend” on the skating pond on a zere aay, for ice then Is too brittle. Slivers of ice dipped in liquid air become so hardq that they will cut glass. Water thrown on ice in the arctic regions will shiver it like pouring bolling water upon cold glass. This is because the ice is so much colder than the water. Catholic Societies Take Action on Philippine " Question. Vatican and American Gov- ernment Congratulated Upon Negotiations, —— CHICAGO, Aug. 7.—The temper of the convention of the Federated Catholic So- cletles relative to the Philippine question was put to the test at the closing session to-day. John T. Keating, a national of- ficer of the Hibernians, offered a i‘ubstt tute resolution for those previously brought before the - meeting. Keating proposed that the delegates dismiss the friars and the Philippine school questions with a mere expression of satisfaction with the manner in which the subjects are being handled by the Vatican and the ad- ministration. When a motion on the substitute was put there was but one af- firmative vote, and that one was Keat- ing's. The convention then adopted the following resplution: ADVERTISEMENTS. \& Fine hardwood parlor table, 24-inch square top, 8$1.00. Entire houses, flats and hotels furnished.

Resolved, That this federation congratulate the Vatican and the American Government on the positicn attained in the negotiations re- garding the questlons which have arisen In the Philippines and we express our full confidence that these negotiations will be continued until 2 just and amicable solution shall be obtained, Other resolutions regretted present ecir- cumstances surrounding the Indian schools and pledged active- and moral support in remedying the conditions. The establishment of Catholic high schools ; erever practicable was advocated; sympathy was expressed for the Catho- lics of France in their present troubles and suitable recognition was taken of the g;alhs of Archbishops Corrigan and Fee- n. Atlantic City was chosen as the meet- ing place of the convention in the third week of July, 1903. The election of officers resulted in a few changes. Among the officers are: B.

We raise a new question. We ask, Who is a Jew? ! A person is not born a Jew. He is a Jew | by education. One may be born a He- | brew, just the same as one may be born ! a Hindoo. But by education a Hindoo | could be a Jew, and a Hindoo could be a | Mohammedan, or a Mormon, or anything else. People often say, I can tell a Jew | as quick as I see him.’ Nothing is more | false. They can tell the Hebrew, but they | can never tell the Jew. One is not a Jew | because born of Jewish parents. One may be a Hebrew by birth, and the parents | may be good Jews; yet' the child may | preach atheism, and of course is no Jew. | It's the same with Christians. Good ! Christian parents might bring up a child who woulg turn atheist, and as a mat- ter per se an atheist is no Christian. The belief in God as the Supreme Being and | the Creator of all, and the, reverence of | that God, and a broad charity toward all | his ereatures makes a man a Jew, a g Christian or a good Mohammedan. This much each faith has in common with the others. In their peculiarities, which is /| signified by their several names, they are sovereign and independent. He is a Jew who holds God’s word in hand and in heart, who sacredly obeys the laws pro- claimed from Mount Sinai, and who re- veres the people who marched with these | laws through fire and water and all sorts of persecution around the earth, pro- claiming on the way, Jehovah in God, into the hearts of the civilized nations. He is a Jew, his faith we call Judaism. —_———— Beer Tabloids Are the Latest. ‘When the German is not suffering from the nightmare of an American trade in- | vasion of some kind, he is busy prepar- ing an affliction of the same kind to cause the American to have as unpleasant a time as possible.

For years it has been a source of hdrd- ship in Germany, especially in the army, that men are every now and again called upon to ablde for days at a time in places where there is no brewery. The new tabloid will relieve the strain in such cases as these. Military authori- ties hail it with acclaim, and it will very lkely soon be made part of the regular army ration—the officers expect it to re. duce the nutber of desertions materially. Now, some skeptics here and there may be dublous about this beer tabloid. They may even cast reflections on the quality of the beer it might be expected to - velop.
