According to his rei-octs. the American shippers are taxing business method a well as ob stinate In their discrimination lo cram tholr own taste and notions on the En glish markets. Among other things, he says: Tho Jewelry and fancy goods manufac turers of Ureal Britain make articles en a "49 suile." In measures for the com mon mt'tuls and articles, a "line'" Is one twelfth of an Inch, but In the tun y trade a "lino" Is one fortieth of an inch. Today a declaration of "reiurneu Amer Isan goods" was swom before me, mean ing, of course, a. big loss to an American manufacturer and due to his failure to muie goods In accordance who the ex act speeltlctttlons in the orvler. A Bir mingham nwinufacturer ordered from an American manufacturer a lot of Inde structible pearl, giving a measurement ho required In "lines." Not knowing what "lines" meant to the fumy trade, the American, without making Inquiry, had recourse to the metric system and hi goods are by this time on the way buck to him. A few days ago I waa shown 16 letter from 16 firms all well known In their line In America. On twelve of these letters, there was Insufficient postage, most of which had only a two-cent stamp 10 carry them. This mmnt that the Bir mingham man, who wanted to buy from some of the American firms, had to pay doublo the deficiency in postage and his frame of mind nnd opinion of American business methods can be Imagined. Steamer malls from the United States frequently arrive after business hours on Saturday and If there is a doflole postag lot tors will not be delivered t hotels, etc., until Monday, and the traveling rep rosentatlvoa lose time waiting for home Instructions much oftencr than could ba rvalliod by nny one not aware how gen eral Is the failure of American firms to pay full postage.

PHILIPPINE REPUBLIC AS CONSTITUTED BY AGUINALDO. NEW YORK. Sept. S0--A dispatch to the Herald from Washington says: Senor Agoncillo. the Philippine repre sentative who iuis come to Washington to ask that the Insurgents be heard by the peace commissioners at Paris, ba ntude a public demonstration thnttha hm maae a public translation of the Philip pine constitution which Aguinaldo was to have proclaimed' at Maloloe, By thl constitution Aguinaldo formally renounces the title of dictator, and aiimes tnal of president of the revolution arv irovernmcnt of the .Philippines.

A congress Is provided for to be composed of representatives of all the prov.nce of the archipelago. An Important feature of the constitu tion in .lew of the fact that Aguinaldo will try to obtain recognition from Euio pean governments, Is that part describing the duties of the secretary of slate. It provides: The office of secretary of state shaU be divided Into three departments, for diplo macy, for marine and for commerce. The department of diplomacy will study and transact all business concerning the di rection of diplomatic negotiation with foreign powers. The department of murine shall study and transact all business in reference to the formation and organisation of a navy ami the organisation and equipment of revolutionary government In carrying out such expeditions as may be desired toy the his purposes and designs. The department of commerce wJl transact al business pertaining to trade both Internal and external and prelimi nary work for the making of commercial treaties with foreign nations. CASPER LEON HOLDS THE BANTAM CHAMPIONSHIP. NEW YORK. Sept. 30. The bantam championship of America still (belongs to Casper Leon, an Italian boxer of this city, but he had a close call In a 83-round bout with Steve Flanagan, of Philadelphia, be fore the Lennox club tonight. These two lads met at 1M pounds and put up a bout which was one of the liveliest and clever est contests which has taken place In th!s arena. Towards the close of the fight the stiff pace told on Leon, while tne i'nila dolphin man showed llttlo signs of dls tress. The majority of those, who wit nessod the conttst declared tho bout should have been called a draw. FOREST FIRES SWEEP OVER WESTERN COLORADO, DENVER, Sept. SO.-The weather man ran offVr no hop for those on lh w.strn slop who homes and crop a threat ened by th forest fires, Thtr ar no In dication whatever of rain, and thla sam to be th only element abl to stay th flames' fury. Throughout Eagle county high wind hav prevailed, giving a fresh Impatu to th forest Are that ar devastating th timber domain. In" concequenc new territory 1s being devoured. Th bbu I rapidly extending alone th Grand reserve of Glrard moun tain, west of Hotneatak creek and from present appearance) will sweep rh coun try to Bear mountain, at Mlnturn, Back of Mlnturn to th heads of Willow and Two Elk tb country 1 devasted, little remaining to feed th flames. From Hooaler mountain th wind has driven the fir to th dg of Gypsum creek. Th set tlers of upper Gypsum, Cannon, Colllr.i and others ar fighting desperately to save (heir homes and stop Its passage across th magnificent forests of the West-Brush. If It get Into Brush, the finest body of timber In th stat Is gon. No loss of Ikf has been reported, but sev eral people have lost their homes and their crop. Dispatches here say that the Wbrytey's Peak, between North and Middle Park, Is now a maaa of flame and it Is gretiUy feared they will extend to both of those beautiful nunplng grounds. The fir has already cut a swath 35 mile long from th Grand liver almost to Llllon, In Summit county. Th width Is yet unknown. Kremmling, in Grand county, ha bad a narrow escap and th danger 1 not yet entirely over. The fires In the vicinity of Ouray are not aa bad a for several day previous, but the smouldering embers may be fanned into aa awful conflagration by tbe slight est wind. Tbe fire around Aspen Is working down the mountain aide toward town, al though H 1 not burning with the force It baa been. At Gunnison. Crested Butte, Wolcott and Glenwood Springs tbe fires are still raging. No estlmane of the damage 'to timber and ranches can be given, but It will unquestionably be very large. SOUND MONEY DEMOCRATS WILL SUPPORT VAN WTCK. So Long as He Remains at the Head of ihe Ticket They Will Not B a D. turblng Factor In the Party. NEW YORK, SvpL 30.-The executive committee of the national democratic party the gold standard members met today and deeded that Justice Augustus Van Wyck waa acceptable to tlhem as the candidate for governor. It wa also decided that aa lontr as Justice Van Wyck remained at the head of the ticket tbe national democratic party would remain neutral, or at least not be a disturbing element among the democrats. THE CUBAN ARMY. v WASHINGTON. Sept .-The cabinet m eating today was devoted largely to matters of detail In connection with the formation of the army which Is to be sent to Cuba. Reports were read to the ef fect that 'by October 15. the danger from yellow fever wlu have passed and It Is understood the movement of the troops will be begun about that time. The conduct of the Spa nlsh customs officers at Havana is very unsatisfactory to the president, and It Is said to be de cided to take possession of the customs house there at an early date, and to ad minister the affairs under regulations pre scribed by this government. There was also some consideration of the subject of mustering out a compara tively large number of general officers of the volunteer army to meet the mustering out of regiments already oniered. The Instructions given the two commissions now sitting at the West Indies provide, It Is said, tor the actual occupation of Porto Rico In advance of Cuba, MISS LUCY HILL CANNOT ASSUME THE FAMOUS TITJ.E. REYNOLDS. Go,, Sept. JO.-Goneral John B. Gordon, commander In chief of the Unite. Confederate Voterans, was shown a dispatch from Chicago In which Miss Lucy Hill claims to have had the title of "Daughter of the Confederacy" conferred upon her by her southern friends since the death of Miss W.nnle Davis, and was asked If the title could ibe thus transferred. He replied, wttn great earnestness: "Emphatically, no. In the very nature of the caso no one except MUs Winnie Davis Is entitled to be called the 'Daush ter of the Confederacy.' That title was unlniio and necullurlv her own, and Is very properly to 'be placed upon her tomb. To designate anyone by that title would be almost sacrilege. As with Jefferson Davis passed the title of president of the Confederacy, so with Miss Winnie Davis has passed that of 'Daughter ot tho Con federacy.' " JUSTICE AT LAST HAS BEEN DONE CAPTAIN DREYFUS. PARIS, Sept. 30. It Is rumored that Captain Dreyfus has already been trans ferred from the Isle de Diablo to Cay enne, where he awaits the steamer to bring him to a French or Algerian port WILL HOLD THE ISLANDS United States Must See' to the Government cf th: Philippines. SO SAYS SENATOR MANNA Believed That His Statement Pep resents the Intention cf tbe Administration. ISLANDS ARE LOST TO SPAft She Will Be Compellel to Relinquish Sovcrignty Over tbe Entire Philippine ArcblpeiafO. CLEVELAND, Sept. JO.-Th Leader has from its Washington correspondent ' the following Interview with Senator Hanna concerning the Philippine question. which is believed to represent the Views of President McKlnley. "I do not know what the Instructions given our peace commissioners sjtt," said Hanna, "but so far as concerns the negotiation which will be Instituted In Pari tomorrow I can see no other result than that Spain will have to relinquish her sovereignty over not only th Luxona Islands, but the entire Philippine archi pelago. Spain has no reason to expect to be sible to retain any portion of lha group. I regard tn r nuippines as iot to Spain, and, that being a foregone con clusion. In my opinion the problem which, next confronts us relate to the form of government which we will give the Islands. "When the Philippine question first pre sented Itself there was A strong sentiment among coiwervaUTe. far-eeing and think ing men In this country which favored the retention by the United States ot merely a naval base and coaling base la the Islands, this base presumably being Manila and tbe bay contiguous thereto. Since then, however, thi sentiment ap parently has undergone a very markid change, and rt now appears that for tha most part these same men who at first believed we should occupy Manila alone are advocating the termination of Span ish rule In Che whole group. It Is oar moral duty to see te It that th Philip pines are assured safe and clvllixed rule. and until the United States determines In Just what manner they ultimately shall be governed, we necessarily will have to consider the Philippine our wards. What will be the ultimate fate ot the Islands Is, of course, a problem of the future." NOTED PRIEST DEAD. VANCOUVER. Wash., Sept. 30.-Very Rev. Louis de G.
