Peace Commissioners to Paris
Not Dollar-a-Day Mn.
THE EXPENSE ACCOUNT
Is Royal in its Generous Propor
tions.
Washington, Sept. 22.—Peace
Commissioners do not work for
■a dollar a day. In fact, they are
J>Tetty well paid. So are their
secretaries and attaches. Those
■distinguished gentlemen who
have left for Paris will not need
pocket money.
'Thej' are to lack nothing to
adequately maintain their offi
cial position, and even the mes
sengers are to h e given liberal
allowances for their personal
expenses. Funds to the amount

the fact that to some
extent > at least, the Peace Com
missioners will be the guests of
Ile Pencil government, it is
expected that it will cost the
uited States a quarter of a
mllion dollars to negotiate the
reaty of peace with Spain.

in Paris.
Because roost of the members
of the commission are already 7
in the government service, they
will get no additional salaries
for their work with the Peace
Commission.
Thus, Commissioners Davis,
Frye and Gray, who are drawing
salaries as United States sena
tors, will not receive any, addi
tional compensation beyond the
payment of their daily expenses.
The same is true of all the minor
attaches, each of whom is em
ployed in the departments in
Washington, and whose regular
salaries are continued during
their absence on this mission.
The only men attachsd to the
commission who will receive
salaries for their seryices are
J tide e Day, the president of the
commission, Whitelaw Reid and
Mr. Moore, who resigned his
place as Assistant Secretary of
State to accompany the commis
sion as its secretary and coun
selor.
It is expected that Commis
sioners Day and Reid will be
given a fee of $25,000 each for
their work on the commission,
and that Secretary Moore, upon
whom much of the work of pre
paring the documents in the
American case has devolved,
will receive a fee of $20,000.
Mr. Corbin, son of Adjutant
General Corbin, whu accompa
nies the commission as an at
tache, will probably get SISOO
as a recompense for his services.
The American government is
paying the expense of the ladies
who are members of the party,
and it is calculated that the
!items of transportation alone for
the 35 persons in the party by
[sea and rail will amount to at
least $25,000. The special ex
penses of the commission in
Paris for entertainments, etc:,
will probably be not less than
$15,000 or $20,000.
Taking into consideration the
salaries that will have to be paid
to persons who take the places
of the attaches of the commis
sion during their absence from
Washington, it will be seen,
therefore, that a quarter of mil
lion dollars will scarcely foot
the bill.
A NARROW ESCAPE.
Thankful words written by
Mrs. Ada E. Hart, Groton S. D.
“Was taken with a bad cold
which settled on my lungs;
cough set in and finally termi
nated in Consumption. Four
doctors gave me up, saying I
could not live but a short time.
I gave myself up to my Savior,
determined if I could not stay
with iny friends on eajth, I
would meet my absent ones
above. My husband was advis
ed to get Dr. King’s New Dis
covery for Consumption,Coughs
and Colds. I gave it a trial, took
in all eight bottles. It has cured
me, and thank God I am saved
and now a well and healthy
woman.” Trial bottles free at

THE CREW BOXED
At the Strange Phenomenon
Aboard Their Vessel.
New York, Sept. 22.—Strange
things happen on the seas and
none stranger than off the New
Jersey Highlands yesterday, It
was a quiet, warm, sultry day,
with scarcely a cloud in the
sky, with no sea on and barely
wind enough to move cigar
smoke. The American schooner
Anna had sailed yesterday from
this port for Charleston. As
there was next to no wind prog
ress was necessarily slow, and
so it was well along in the day
before they passed the bar and
stood away to the South.
The wind was still drowsing
when nig it came. .he crew
were lolling about the deck
Suddenly, without any warning,
there was a crash, a sound of
splintered wood and straining
cordage., followed by a succes
sion of sharp reports, as the
stays gave way, and then shat
tered spars came clattering
down to the deck.
The schooner still rocked lei
surely on the light swell. There
was still no wind worthy the
name. Investi. ation showed
that the fore and maintop masts
of the vessel had been carried
away, and the crew went to
work clearing the wreckage. This
morning they hailed the tug
Olympia and the disabled
schooner was towed back to port
for repairs . Capt. Woodhull
said that he was unable ‘o ex
plain the accident.
