Even so late in the century as the time of the marriage of our Queen it was looked upon as a gross breach of good manners to sneeze in company. In the time of that bluff tailor-king, William IV., the then Duke of Nor folk was referred to as “something of a boor,” and only for sneezing violent ly at a state banquet when the King was present. Sir F. Hastings Doyle, In his autobiography, relates how, early in the ’sos, Lord Halifax was walk ing with Lord Duudas when the latter suddenly began to make hideous faces to such a degree that Lord Halifax became seriously alarmed and gasped out: “Shall I run for the doc tor?” Lord Dundas gave a peremp tory “No,” as far as he was able. When he had recovered from the paroxysm, he said: “I was only In the agonies of trying not to sneeze. The awful Court etiquette in regard to this matter has made me really ill many a time. Now adays I cannot, from long habit, really sneeze; but the sensation that brings about sneezing simply agonizes me. And I know many elderly gentlemen who suffer the same.” The same rule applied and still ap plies in some cases, in an even greater degree on the Continent. The late Czar of Russia, the father of the pres ent ruler, once hazarded the opinion that a certain distinguished French- Englisbman was “much wanting In polish and good manners,” because he, poor man, sneezed at a Russian Court reception. Even the late Napoleon 111., free-and-easy as was his court In cer tain matters, looked upon sneezing in his presence as a great liberty.—An swers. A Clever Trick. The Correo Cutalan, of Barcelona, vouches for the following amusing story: An ingenious gentleman of the city informed the Porte that be knew all the details of a plot against the Sultan, which he could bring home to the criminals If he bad SI,OOO for travelling expenses. Tbe Ottoman Consul at Barcelona was instructed to pay the money, and to promise S4OO more In case of a conviction. The Spaniard took his SI,OOO, but he has not yet reached Constantinople. Some even Insinuate that he never will. A New Fire Extinguisher.

TREASURY REPLETE The Annual Export of United States Treasurer Roberts. INFLUX OF REVENUES BREAKS RECORD Amount Taken In tlie I.arumt In Ifliforj of the Country For the Fiscal Yesr Just CoinP to it Close. A Washington special says: The annual report of the treasurer of the United States, Ellis H. Roberts, on the operations and condition of the treasury, was submitted to Secretary Gage Monday. Mr. Roberts says the growth aud prosperity of the country and the general activity of business are reflected in the transactions of his office. The net revenues of the government for the fiscal year were §567,240,852, the largest in the history of the coun try, exceeding those of 1866, the next highest., by §47,291,388. The increase of 051,280,332 over the preceding year was contributed from all the general sources, but chiefly from customs and internal revenue. On the side of the expenditures there was a net decrease of 8117,358,388 in comparison with 1899, so that the deficiency of $9,111,- 560 for that year was converted into a surplus of $79,527,060 in 1900. Promptly on the enactment of the new financial law the divisions of is sue and redemption therein provided for were established, aud to them were tranferred the records and accounts relating to the issue and redemption of United States, gold certificates, silver certificates and currency certificates. Up to October 1, 1900, $22,530,854 in United States notes aud $3,594,708 in treasnry notes were redeemed in gold out of the reserve fund of $150,000. Each day the notes so redeemed were exchanged for gold from the general fund, so that the reserve was kept intact in amount and character. Besides this reserve fund, tho trust fund, consisting of gold coin, silver dollars and bullion and United States notes held for the redemption of cer tificates and treasury notes, amount ed, on the day the act became a law, to $723,069,283, and increased l>y No vember 1, 1900, to $740,965,679. The aggregate amount of money of all kinds in circulation on October 1, 1900, is estimated at $2,113,294,983, an increase of $180,810,744 in fifteen months, of which $94,440,930 was due to the enlarged nse of gold and gold certificates. The increase per capita was from $25.38 to $27.01, The per capita of gold at the latter date was $10.50, which is greater than that of all the currency in 18G2, while the total of gold i8 greater than all the circulation at any time previous to July, 1879. On October Ist 39.24 per cent of the total circulation was in gold and gold certificates 26.45 in silver dol lars, silver certificates and treasury note*, 15.36 per cent in United States notes aad 15.11 per cent in national bank notes. It is a significant com parison that on June 30, 1890, the percentage of United States notes was 22.58. Two years earlier it was as high as 32.07. While the volume of United States notes, treasury notes and silver certificates is limited by statutory provisions, the stock of gold is constantly growing. The metallic stock of money is estimated for October 1, 1900, as $1,059,288,820 in gold, $566,355,367 in silver dollars and bullion and $86,- 000,748 in fractional silver coin, an aggregate of $1,711,644,935. LITTLE MOROCCO DEFIANT. K*fa** to Meet Demand of the United State* For Indemnity. A Washington special says: The government of Morocco has again declined to meet the demand of the United States for the payment of an indemnity on account of the killing by a mob of Marcus Essagin, a natu ralized American citizeu. The last request was made by United States Consul Cutnmere, and the latest declination of the govern ment of Morocco was accompanied by an intimation of its freedom from lia bility under the terms of the conven tion between Morocco and Spain. The state department has concluded that th# consul’s representations will be more effective if he is supported morally by the presence in Morocco waters of a United States warship, and it is probable that he will make his visit to Fez to agaiu present the case as passenger on a vessel to be elected bv the navy department for that pur pose. lluller In London. General Buller, accompanied by his wife and daughter, arrived in London Monday and reported to the war office. Large crowds which had assembled at the Waterloo station and in Fall Mail cheered the geueral. After American Money. A syndicate of Danish and fcwedisb bankers has begun negotiations with American bankers for a $10,000,000 loan for the Copenhagen municipality. POWERS DIFFER AS TO POLICY Chinese Trouble Seems Far From Amicable Settlement. UNCLE SAM’S STAND CRITICIZED Proposed Vindictive Action of r Germany Threatens To Break - Up the Peace Concert. The London morning papers are again agitated concerning the stability of the concert of .powers in China. The attitudes of Germany and the United States meet with disapproval, the former because Count Von Wal dersee has sent a column to destroy the Ming tombs, an act which is re garded as needlessly vindictive, and the latter because it threatens to break up the concert. The Daily Chronicle comments strongly upon the American attitude as a “feeble compromise which it is impossible to accept.” The Moruiug Post says: “It would be unreasonable of the United States to break np the concert because they do not desire indemnity. The powers would probably be willing to consider America’s objections. If, however, the United States have in view some new oombihation of powers, it would be neecssary for Great Britain and Germany to agree upon a common policy to be pursued in the absence of a general agreement.” The Standard, which dismisses the subject with a mere reference, says: “An American opinion on the Chi nese problem is too uncertain to be considered seriously.” Dr. Morrison, wiring to The Times on Sunday, expresses the opinion that China will readily accede to all the terms of the conjoint note except the execution of the princes and officials, which it will be impossible to fulfill while the court i9 in the hands of these very officials.” “Considerable curiosity is felt at Tien Tsin,” says the Shanghai corres pondent of The Times, “as to the whereabouts of the Japanese forces, which, though not leaving the coun try, are disappearing from Pekin and Tien TsiD, it is not known whither.” Referring editorially to the present stage of the negotiations, The Times says: “The United States accepted the Grmau note demanding the punish ment of Prince Tuan aud the other guilty officials; and it will not be harder to secure the punishment of eleven officials than of the three whose names were originally indicated by the state department. Therefore, it is difficult to see how America could jus tify iu her own eyes a refusal to join with the ether powers in steps needful to secure this result.” INDEMNITY WILD HE ENORMOUS. A dispatch to The Herald from Washington says: Secretary Hay is mnch irritated over reports from Pe kin showing that the ministers are de termined to punish every influential Chinaman who they thiuk is responsi ble for tbe resent outrages, and show ing also that the indemnity to be de manded will reach $600,000,000. The secretary is anxious that the powers shall submit demauds that can be ac cepted by China. Officials at Washington held that ex amples should be made only of those conspicuously guilty, and that the amount of indemnity should certainly be not more than $200,000,000. It is pointed out that if all the leading men are sentenced to death, they will, in self defense, organize a resistance, which will necessitate further mili tary operations, the end of which no one can foresee. The president and Secretary Hay are anxiously awaiting the result of the deliberations of the ministers. It is plain that the ministers are not pleased over the developments of the last few days.

BANK LOSES HEAVILY. NudhrtMb Hue Senantlou of Flrt Magni tude —Clerk I* Implicated. The arrest of T. P. Brady upon a federal warrant sworn out by F. O. Watts, cashier of the First National bank, has stirred up a sensation in Nashville, Tenn. The firm of Con nor & Brady, composed of J. H. Con nor and T. P. Brady, wholesale grocers and liquor dealets, made an assignment Monday and the arrest of Brady followed. In this connection the disappearance last July of W. W. Lea an individual bookkeeper of the First National bank, is explained. The two are charged with collnsion in defrauding the bank ont of $44,000. W’ARTHUR REPORTS Shows Status of Military Affairs In Philippine Islands. OLR CASUALTIES FOR NINE MONTHS. Americans I.ose Over a Thonnaml I u Kill. ed, Wonmled and Captured—Fillpi. nos Lute Nearly 7,000. Major General Arthur Mac Arthur commanding the United States forces in the Philippines and military gover nor of the islands, has submitted his report to the war department. Every question in the Philippines is treated, and the inference drawn bv many of those at headquarters is that if the United States are to conquer the Philippines it must be by sheer force of arms. While, according to the report, Ag uinaldo and his band voted to discon tinue war November 12th, 1899, as a matter of fact it continued. By their ability to doff the habiliments of war aud assume the garb of peace, Filipi nos have successfully kept in the field, but at a tremendous loss. Fifty-three stations occupied by Americans on November Ist, 1899, had on Septem ber Ist, 1900, expanded to 413. While the Americans had lost 1,073 in killed, wounded and captured, the Filipinos had lost 6,785. The report says: “The Filipinos are not a warlike or ferocious people. Left to themselves, a large number would gladly accept the American supremacy, which they are gradually coming to understand means individual liberty and absolute security in their lives and property.” General McArthur says the exten sive distribution of troops has strained the soldiers of the army to the full limit of endurance. He says the ap parent desultory work has demanded more of discipline and as muoh of val or as was required during tho period of regular operations against concen trated field forces of insurrectionists. General McArthur’s report says that the troops amidst all labors aud hard ships are content. The Filipinos, the report says, left to themselvep would gladly accept the American supremacy. The Americans are making as many friendly overtures as is compatible with the conditions. MCABTHUB TO TAEB THE FIELD. A Wa i hington special says: In pursuance of the plan to make an ag gressive campaign iu the Philippines during the winter, it has been arran ged that Major General McArthur shall personally direct the military operations against the insurgents. While he is in the field Major Gener al Bates will be assigned to duty in Manila, as exectuive head of the mil itary government of the island. General MacArthur does not propose to lay himself open to the criticism which was made against his predeces sor, General Otis, who occupied him self with office detuils while his subor dinates led the fighting. General MacArthur’s determination to lead the troops himself is warmly approved by the president aud the secretary of war. SCHOONER WRECKED. Six oT Those Aboard, Including; Two Women, Perished Miserably. A Boston special says: The three masted schooner Myra B. Weaver was wrecked in Vineyard sound early Sat urday morning and six lives were lost. The names of those who perished are: Captain R. S. Vannaman, of Phila delphia, aged about thirty-five. Steward William PeterseD, married, residing in New Orleans. Charles Magnussen, single, of Ber gen, Norway. John Hejinan, of Aland, Finland. Miss Mary Emerson, aged about twenty-three, of Mobile. Miss Ella Deboe, aged fifteen, also of Mobile. Miss Emerson was a sister-in-law of the captain and Ella Deboe was her niece. The details of the disaster were iearned upon arrival at Boston Saturday afternoon of the City of Ma con, Captain Savage, which rescued four survivors. The Weaver left Fer nandina, Fia., October 16th with a cargo of lumber. BANKER* ARRESTED. One Charged With Einbenbaient and the Other With I'aUe Swearing;. At Somerset, Ky., Friday, George W.
