RECEIVING MANY CONDOLENCES It Is His Intention to Remain Lincoln Until He Has Com pletely Recovered. In 1.TSOOLN. Xeb.. Nov. 7. With 'the ex ception of a short drive In the early even ing; Mr. Bryan remained -In his study to day, rising late this morning and retiring early tonight. He said this 'evening that he hid no statement of any kind to make at present. Mr,. Bryan received hundreds of telegrams during tlu day and evening from personal and political -friends, but their nature was not disclosed. It Is Mr. Bryan's Intention to remain In Lincoln at least until he is thoroughly rested. To newspaper correspondents he asked to be exauscd from outlining his future action. Both Mr. and Mrs. Bryan were In a cheerful mood today. Mr. Bryan said he had 'slept last night, and felt In excellent health. Referring to his plans for the Immediate future, he ex pressed a determination to take a good rest. "I shall not even attempt to answer let ters for the present," he said. "butwlll postpone that duty for a few days. I am not exhausted at all." he added, "but I have had plenty to do for several months, and will take It easy for a time." TALKS OF A NEW PARTY. PettlsrreTT Predict That One Will Be Formed. ST. PAUL, Nov. 7. A Sioux Falls, S. ., special to the Dispatch says: "I predict the formation of a new party, based on the protests of the outrages against Republicanism as tiught by Hanna," declared United States Senator just left his home, to which hi withdrew e 6r abut a" ,T lll,ta?e i:om last night when the first considerable ! the oer end. containing two other pas hatrh f tPi,rrr.. arrived tm.m v,h ' sengers. The operating of the cralt was Dakota. "I saw how It was going, and I went home. For weeks I "have told the I National committee we were defeated in South Dakota, but they have kept claim ing the state, and I have been working for political -effect. No, sir, I was not dis appointed; I slept well last night. I "will remain in Sioux Falli. and I am now going to resume my will north of town. Defeat is the more welcome to me as It has come than victory would have been If It came by lndorslnr the sort of policy which the Republican party represents. "Yes. of course. I will be In the new party. What It will be called is of little moment. It may be 'Social Labor" or it may be the 'New Dimocracy.' It will be made up of persons discontented with the elements In politics, as a protest against the existing conditions and the present tendency of things. The move ment will grow rapidly, and I believe will defeat the Republican party In 1904. Tho Mark Hanna Republicanism is menacing the Republic. The concentration of weilth will create an Influence soon to restrict the right of suffrage, until capi talists will say no one is fit to take part in the government who does not know enough to make money. At first the limit will Include a small amount, and then tho amount will be raised until there is nomi nally a simon-pure Illiteracy. -The election does-rtot stand ns an In dorsement of all ths Administration s ands for. The cry of prosperity and the racial trait are more apparent now than ever before of getting all we cm and keep ing all we can get. No Anglo-Saxon na tion ever voted against tnc party In pow er while Involved in war. I thought it would be difficult thli time, because of more dissemination of knowledge. There will likely occur divorcement of the Dem ocratic and Populist parties, but the new party will be the popular one. I cannot say whether Mr. Bryan will affiliate with it or not." Joncw Will Not Continent on It. CHICAGO, Nov. 7. Senator James X. Jones, chairman of the' 'Democratic Na tional Committee, said today: "I am not Inclined to concede that Washington, Nebraska, Kansas and S-uth Dakota have gone Into the Republican col umn. I have doubts about South Dakota, but am not now prepared to concede that state. In view of tho conflicting reports we have received at Democratic headquar ters. I do not at this time care to com ment on the election. I am not surprised that the Republicans have conceded Ken tucky to us. I knew the bluograss folk were true to the principles of Democracy." AERIAL NAVIGATION NEAR. Count Zeppelin' Saccesn Gives vr Hope. Since the first balloon trip was made the great problem of aeronautics has been to achieve that same control over a ship of the air that.e .sailor has over the ship In the water? sriyVUbe New York Sun. The problejm was twofold; It required the achievement of propulsion and of direc tion. In the aggregate millions of dol lars, hundreds of years, and scores of Jives have baen devoted to the solution. Irom time to time announcement has been triumphantly made of an airship, that could 'be steered, but a single trial i me contrivance has -ended in failure 1 - w,,.- OT;. r uisfunor at tne worst. Of late Investigators have turned from the Idea of the balloon to that of the soaring apparatus, seeking to imitate the oira xamer than the steamship In their efforts to navigate the air; but one sth- iem 01 aeronauts steadfastly held to the jihc 01 me gas airsnin. and nn-ar in , closing year of the 19th century. Count Zeppelin announces to the world that the dirigible airship is a demonstrated fact. Two successful aerial flights form the basis of Count Zeppelin's assertion, which is universally accepted since his most re cent experiment on October 17 at Fried rtehsafen. a German town on Lake Con stance. In each he demonstrated that his airemp coma dc raiseo. lowered and I leered in any direction at will while car rying five passengers. This amounts, broadly speaking, to this: That the first step forward has been made in aerial navigation since the flight of the first balloon. At the beginning of ballooning it wa shown that the great gas bulb ooutd be r&lsetd or lowered to some ex tent in accordance with the will of the operator In all the years since no man has suceeded In controlling Its lateral movements or overcoming the pressure of the air currents until the German Tount built his huge craft. What re mains of the problem now is simply a matter of mechanical ingenuity to light en the structure of the airship while pre serving its strength, and to increase the motive power without adidng materially to the weight of the engines. More time, thought, endeavor and money have been put into the Zeppelin -airship than into any previous enterprise of aerial navigation. It Is 30 years since Count Zeppelin an officer in the German Army, first turned his attention to It as an engine of war which should render the nation In possession of it Irresistible by enabling Its officers to scout without fear of the enemy's fire. From that time up to the present he has fceen at work with nine iuicruusenun unon nix trresx iiIm spending his -wealth lavlshlv in exn.rtL .- -it- . .. .. - r raciiuj wuiciywere, ior tne most part, failures; but 'failure .of the kind that lead to success. .His constant endeavor; ttm to -find a structure which should Iks light, yet firm, and properly balanced, and to .supply It without much added weight with motors capable of driving It through the air. He long ago made up . his. mind that to be of practical value his airship must be able to. attain a speed of more than 15 miles an hour, since the cur rents in the upper regions of the ajr, where he proposes to operate, are so often of that or greater velocity that a contrivance unable to withstand them would be useless. In the meantime he did not take the world Into his confidence, and the many aeronauts in various parts of the world who, like Hargrave, of Aus. tralio, Chanute of this country and the ill-fated IJllenthal of Germany, were fol lowing the line of soaring flight by means of aeroplanes were Inclined to look on him as a visionary who would only add one more to the long list of failures. It was not until two er three years ago that the world heard about Count Zeppelm's airship. Then what It heard was not definite, being the general infor mation that tho biggest balloon ever built was nearlng completion In a boathouse on Lake Constance, & baloon bigger than a man-of-war. On July 1 of this year such of the public as chanced to be In the vicinity of Lake Constance or had come thither in expectation of the event, had opportunity of yerlfjing the various ru mors about the so-called balloon. "What they saw, as the great structure mas moved from its floating boathouse for the first time, was a framework that looked like a cigar, 420 feet long and 3S feet In diameter, except at the tapering ends. At the sides were propellers and at each end big, fin-like protuberances which were to serve as rudders. It was not like any baloon that any of the spectators had ever before seen, and, Indeed, It was not strictly sDeaklng a balloon, but a series of balloons, 17 of them in all. In closed in a frame of aluminum trellis work. That day no flight was attmpted on account of the wind. On the evening of the following day the 1 airship made the first really successful ) air trip on record. Released irom the cables that anchored It to the bargea, it rose quietly and so steadily that the swiftness of its flight was hardly ap preciable to the thousands who watched it. When it had reached an altitude of between 1200 and 1300 feet its upward progress was checked for that Is the air stratum In which It is expected that most of the traveling will be done. Then, the maneuvers began. Beneath the body of the balloon hung two aluminium cars, one about 100 feet from the prow of the craft. holding the Inventor and two companions; done from these two cars. The eager multitude below, with their field and opera glasses, could sec frcn the drcks of the fleet of excurs.on boats mo t of the details of operation. On a cable sus pended beneath the body of the ship they saw a .weight, which from time to tim moved back and forward. When It was moved toward the rear of the airship the iprow was elevated and the whirring propellers drove the craft upward at an angle. When the weight was drawn for ward the great clgar-Uke object turned on its own axis and slowly pointed ear h ward. As soon as the weight was stopped in the center the ship moved on an ever( keel. Presently the air vessel made a wide and graceful sweep In a full circle, pait of the time necessarily traveling ag Inst the breeze. This proved sufficiently the absolute dirlglblllty of the contrivance. Count Zeppelin then, pointed It toward the village of Imcnstadt and put on seme speed, making three and three-quarter miles In 17 minutes. A slight accident to one of the rudders prevented any further experimenting on that day, and the air ship came down upon the lake so gently that there was not the least shock to those in the aluminium cars, which als act as boats when the ship ntrlkes 'the water. Count. .Zeppelin expresed himself as entirely satisfied with the result? of the trip. No other trial was made at the time. The craft was returned to Its float ing quarters, and after the necessary re. pairs had been made the Inventor and hfs assistants set themselves to the problem of decreasing the weight of the ship. Despite Its great size and its volume of nearly 15,000 cubic yardB, It weighed, with cars and crew, only 11 tons; but the possi bility of decreasing this weight without sacrificing stability meant the capacity for Just so much more weight and conse quently horse-power In the propelling en gines. . j What alterations and Imnrovcmen's 3ount Zeppelin made in consequence of , inc nrsx mat ne nae not reveaiea. out-it is assumed that they were of conslderab e extent, since It was three months and a half before the great machine was agsin brought out Meantime certain critlc3 had suggested that the navigation of the ship In all directions may have been noth ing more than a skillful taking advantage of the air currents which flow in different directions .at different heights. Attention was called to the fact that a balloonist had once, on a wager, traversed the three sides of an aerial triangle by raiding and lowering his balloon to catch the va rious currents, and it was hinted that Count Zeppelin could have done the same without any machinery or motor 'power. This last trial, of October 17, however, nas completely reiutca tnat tneory. The -airship traveled six miles with the wind, which was blowing about 10 miles 'an hour. Then, turning and without rl ".ng or falling from the air stratum of about 1200 feet, in which it was traveling. It came back against a freshening breeze at a good rate. It then went through -a number of maneuvers, turning and twist! ing,. rising and falling for an hour, and those spectators who had seen it on Its Initial trip declared that it traveled at a faster rate of speed and answered its tud ders and altitude shifting weight more promptly on this occasion than befor. Count Zennelln Is said to have ex pressed a belief that a few lmprovcm nt? will render his ship capable 01 a sp rd of SO miles an hour. In spite 'of the fact j gets his money. that he Is over 70 years old and has spent 1 'Anothor type of case Is an Insurance 30 years of hard work on his Invention, , against the discovery of a missing man. he intends 'to continue the work with un- a prodigal son leaves'home for his coun bated vigor; lie considers the problem try's good, and nobody knows where he Is.

AMERICA'S SUPREMACY. England's Trade Decaying net Peo ple Less Dillffent Than Ours. A remarkable book, published by Mr. Brooks Adams, called "America's Eco nomic Supremacy." treats boldly of the decay of England. His statements havo raised much Indignation among people who are wounded by the truth, but hx facts are undeniable, says the London correspondent of the Philadelphia Pub'lc Ledger The commercial preponderance which Great Britain enjoyed be'ween tho year of Waterloo and 1SS0 is passing away. The focus ff energy and wealth is shifting, and there is an "uneasy Fcne of instability in quarters where confi dence formerly prevailed. The central fact of the commercial situation is hat English firms are dilatory, because Eng lishmen not se'dom refuse to leavr their dinners or their sport for business, and that Americans and Germans. wh are more diligent succeed where Englishmen fail. Americans will not be surprised at the angry protests that will be raised aga'ns: the logical pursuit of tho free-trad- doc trine. Lavish outlay for indulgences on the part of a whole people will drive them into viclent expedients for tho gratification of their love ot ease, and tinkering with the tariff Is a strong prob ability within a measurable distance of time.

Tha results of today's elections show that the Govern ment has been sustained by a majority of from 50 to 60 members, on a basis of re turns received up to midnight, and with Ave constituencies to be heard from. To day's elections were in 203 out of 2Li con stituencies of the Dominion, and the re maining Ave will hold their elections at a later date. This, of 'course, makes It entirely possible that when the. elections are completed and when the later returns are In, the apparent majority may be ie duced somewhat. TORONTO, OnL, Nov, 7. The return of the Liberal Government to power 13 as sured, 15$ constituencies out of 213 having been heard from. Of these, the Liberals have carried 100 and the Conservatives 58. In -the Province of Quebec, the Liberals almost swept the province. Out of 65 constituencies, the Conservatives wll have only seven seats, or eight at the most. While all the leading Liberals In that province have been returned, all the leading Conservatives, except T. C. Casgraln-Montmorency, have been de feated, and he has only 26 majority. The race and religious cry which was raised In the provinces against Laurler to d heavily In his favor' among all classes In, the Province of Quebec The three lead- er Sir Charles Tunner. George Foster and Hugh John McDonald, are all de feated, and the question now is who w.ll lead. The likelihood is that a seat will be found for Sir Charles. In regard to the Ministry, there may be new blood taken In from Ontario In, the near ru ture. and it la Just possible that Emmcr son, who is elected In West Moreland, N. B., will replace Sir Louis Davlos, but there is no likelihood of any radlcil change. Ontario showed great Conservative gains, but they were quite Insufficient to offset the stampede of the other prov inces to the Liberal cause. At midnight, the returns In the Province of Qu bsc Indicate the election of only six Consrr. vatives among the 65 members from that province. In the last House the Conser vatives had 16 members, a loss df 10. BRITISH -COLUMBIA ELECTION. Two Conservatives, One Labor and One Liberal Successful. VANCOUVER. B. C, Nov. 7. British Columbia has not Joined In the general approval of the Laurler government, ex pressed by the eastern provinces of Can ada, In today's election. Six seats In the House of Commons are allotted to British Columbia, and in two of these constitu encies the election Nhas been deferred for one month on account of the remoteness of some of the polling places. Of the four British Columbia seats contested today, two returned Conservatives, one Labor candidate with Conservative leanings, and one Liberal, the latter by a narrow majority. Prior and Earle, opposition, have majorities of 700 and 200 In Vic toria. Rath Smith, Labor, has a plural ity of 700 over Sloan, Liberal, and Wod ley, Conservative, In Vancouver district, and in Westminster district Auley Morri son, Government, has 60 majority over ex-Governor Dewdney, with several poll ing-places still to be heard from. The two remaining constituencies are expect ed to return supporters of the govern ment at the deferred election next month. In the Maritime Provinces. OTTAWA, Ont., Nov. 7.

INSURING AGAINST SURPRISES Novel Risks That Are Granted by Vp-to-Date English Companies. London Dally Mall. It was stated yesterday as a fact of novel and material Interest that It was now possible to Insure for the contingen cy of being the father of twins. And so It Is. You can also Insure prospective triplets. But that is a small matter compared to the queer risks insurance companies are taking every day. Any thing, from the vicissitudes of playing a fast bowler on a klcklnir wicket to the i chance of an heir changing his religious tenets, Is now a subject for an Insurance policy. "We Insure people Against the possibil ity of any calamity," said Mr. Armstrong of the. Ocean Accident Insurance Com pany to a Dally Mall representative. "Frequently we are asked to Insure against a man changing his name. Say somebody leaves a property to John I Smith, on condition that he takes the name and style of Howard Montmo rency Vandeleur. He wants to borrow money on his property. The lender de clines to advance the money on tho ground that he has no guarantee that t Vandeleur won't return, to being called Smith. We Insure the lender against that pnntlnirenev and Vandeleur fnea Rmlthi j to be divided equally among his children. The trustee of the will finds himself In a difficulty. The prodigal may return from his husks, and then the other heirs will have had more than their share. We Insuro the trustee against the prodigal's return.

Some other men were standing, but all the women In the car were seated. The ear stopped and a young woman entered. The drunken man arose un steadily, reached for a strap, missed it and lurched toward the forward' end of the car. t "vifhen the car started he lurched again. This time he landed near the rear door. There stood the young woman, "Take a seat," he gasped. She smiled and said "thank 3rou,' but Still stood. The? drunken man turned and saw the seat he had so gallantly Vacated occu pied by a man.

CONFIDENCE IN THE POLE. Equipment for Evelyn B. Baldvftn's Arctic Expedition. William Ziegler, who will equip an Arctic expedition to be headed by Evelyn B. Baldwin and sail from this port next Summer, told a Brooklyn Eagle re porter why he had decided to aid in a search for the North Pole. Neither Mr. Ziegler nor Mr. Baldwin is ready at this time to reveal their plans, but this Is due to the fact that negotiations are pending which make.lt unwise to do so. Mr. Ziegler, who Is one of the proprietors of the Royal Baking Powder Company, is very enthusiastic in his new undertak ing, and is confident that it will be suc cessful. "In sending out this expedition I am prompted solely by patriotic motives. If the North Pole can be located, and I con fidently believe It can, I want the Stars and Stripes to be the first flag raises there. I have taken a deep Interest in Arctic explorations since I was a youth of 17. At that time I was an employe of a panorama of the Kane expedition. My interest in the regions of the far Evelyn B. Baldwin. Who beads the Baldwln-Ziegler Arctic ex pedition. North has steadily Increased until now i am willing and ready to place sufficient means at Mr. Baldwin's disposal to aid him In every possible way to get to' the pole. I have always made Jt a, rule to accomplish whatever I have undertaken, 1 and I expect the hunt for the Nortn Pole to be no exception. I have every confi dence In Mr. Baldwin. He Is a man of de. termlnatlon and of experience. I would not waste 5 cents If I did not thlpk we would succeed. I have told Mr. Baldwin that I did not want to sec him return until he could bring the welcome news that the North Pole had been reached. We have plans very practical ones, too and there Is nothing apparently to prevent carrying them out to the letter." Evelyn B. Baldwin, whom Mr. Ziegler has chosen to head the expedition, Is a, man of medium height He Is well built,, has brown hair and bright blue eyes. He has a modest manner, and Is one of the last men a person would select for a battle with the elements In tho Arctic regions. He has always taken a deep Interest in meteorology. He was a member of the Peary Arctic expedition In 1S93-1S94. In 1897 he went to Spitsbergen, having volun teered to accompany Andree on his aerial flight, but there being no room for him In the basket of the big balloon, he could not proceed. In 1S9S-1S99 Mr. Baldwin ac companied the Wellman expedition to Franz Josef Land. Early in the present year he made a trip to the Republic ot Colombia, South America," to visit his friend and college chum, M. T. Snyder, on his banana plantation, and at once set about putting Into execution plan's for the proposed expedition, Mr- Snyder and his brother having volunteered to aid him In a financial way. Later Mr. Ziegler. who is a cousin of the Messrs. Snyder, heard of the plan and at once asked t6 be al lowed to equip the expedition. M,r. Bald win is well known in many 6f the larger cities. He was for several years con nected -with tho Weather Bureau Service, and at various times was stationed at Washington, D. C, Nashville, Cairo, To ledo,. New Orleans and Mobile. He Is 3S years old. and was born in camp at Springfield, Mo., his father, E. B. Bald win, at that time being a first Captain in the Illinois Regulars. His father after ward became Lieutenant-Colonel of the Eighth Missouri Cavalry. YoUng Baldwin-attended public school in Illinois and finally graduated from North western College, Naperville, -111., where he had as classmates J. A. and M. T. Sny der, the men Instrumental In arranging for a trip to the Arctic. In order to study and observe Baldwin visited Europe when 22 years old and toured Ireland afoot, de fraying his expenses by writing for maga zines. Returning to this country, he be came a teacher in Illinois public schools and spent his vacations traveling. Al though neither Mr. Ziegler nor Mr. Bald win will say anything about their plans for the expedition, it is understood that two ships will be purchased, manned and equipped and sent north, starting from New York early next Summer. One -ot these ships will return home while the other will push forward and endeavor to reach the objective point Mr. Baldwin said lost night he had definite plans-for the important trip. "My friends and collegemates, M. T. Snyder, of Mobile, Ala., and his brother, J. A. Snyder, of New Orleans, La., cousins of Mr. Ziegler, have for some months known of my ambition for Arctic explo ration," said Mr. Baldwin last night "They had volunteered to furnish funds for an expedition under my leadership' and incidentally referred to the matter in Mr. Zlegler'a presence. Mr. Ziegler then stated that he had taken a deep interest in Arctic matters since Dr. Kane's time Lnd had always been desirous of sending the Stars and Stripes to the far north He asked to be permitted to finance the expedition, being Inspired with no other motive than that of patriotism. He wanted America, he. said, to vie with the Norwegians and the Italians in the race for the pole. His offer to finance the ex pedltion solely was at once accepted. It belncr his desire to place me in a. posi tion to undertake the work with absolute freedom. "Were he, a younger man ne would himself go the entire Journey, but his age precludes such a trip. He will, nevertheless, accompany the expedition for some-distance." , "William Zleglers record .as a successful business, man Is well known. F0RHGN VIEW. OF IT ENGLISH PAPERS PLEASED WITH MlKINIi"EY7S-ELHCTION. I Jermnn Government Officials and Press: Express Great Satisfaction. With the Result. LONDON, Nov. 7. The afternoon papers voice the general sentiment of England with tho result of tho Presidential elec tion In the United States. The Evening News says: "Antl-lmperlal-lsm, the attempt to stir up jealousy against England, the championship of the Boers and pandering to the Fenians, all availed Bryan nothing. His defeat is a defeat for Croker and Tammany, and that is Its happiest feature. It really looks as If Americans are tired of the gang of corrupt Irish-Americans who have degraded American politics so long." The Stat says: "Had Bryan kept to tha Issues of anti-Imperialism, anti-trusts and social reform, he might conceivably have won. Sound money proved his undoing. He has been crucified on a cross of gold, but it has been very much of a voluntary crucifixion." The T.mes says: "McKlnley's victory Is no ordinary party triumph. It is a victory for common honesty, sound sense and sober, enlightened political judgment. Free silver and Its attendant heresies are the real matters upon which the electors havo given Judgment." The Times ex presses the opinion that had Bryan been elected even all the checks of the Con stitution could not have restrained htm. from experiments fatal to social order and material prosperity, and It con cludes: "From that danger the country Is mercifully delivered, certainly for the present, and we may hope for all time." The Westminster Gazette says: "Mr. Bryan spoke for millions, conscious of the tyranny of money In the United States, but he fatally handicapped him self with the free silver craze. His close association with 'Boss Croker also blight ed their hopes in him as a cleanser of administration." The Pall Mall Gazette says: "The result Is most welcome from every view point. In McKlnley and Roosevelt Great Britain has Just the sort of friends we want. Not effusive ranters who sicken every body by their excessive pretense of cous inly unity, but quite benevolent neutrals. Aii a business nation, the final defeat of unsound money Is most acceptable to us." The Globe, basing Its comment on the idea that Imperialism was the main point at issue, says: "Henceforth the United States will take its place as a world power. To the whole world the result of the election Is of supreme Importance and fraught with momentous consequences to all nations. In thlu country It will be hailed with unalloyed satisfaction. Wo gladly welcome the entry of the young giant of the West Into the councils of the world." The St- James Gazette remarks: "It would have been always unworthy , of America had the corruption and jobbery of Tammany Hall carried the day, but espqclally it would have been little short of disastrous to the world at large If Mr. Bryan had received the mandate to re verse the only policy the United States can possibly pursue In Cuba and the Phil ippines, which is the policy of Mr. Mo Klnley." GERMANS ARE PLEASED. Government Circles and Press Do- lighted "With McKlnley's Success. BERLIN, Nov. 7. Oerman Government circles ore all delighted at President Mc Klnley's re-election. The United States embassy today received a number of ex pressions of that kind- Generally speak ing, the German public Is taking much greater Interest In the American election than heretofore. Everybody is discussing the results. "Von Holleben, the German Ambassador to the United States, who is now In this city, said to the correspond ent of the Associated Press about the re sult: "We all rejoice over It" Dr. Barth, the Frelsslnnige leader, said: "I regard Mr. McKlnley's re-election, all things considered, as the best result, al though I cannot indorse his Imperialistic tendencies. Tet I regard his election as more conducive to the Interests of gen eral civilization, when compared with the results which Mr. Bryan's election would have brought For the economic Inter ests of both the United States and Ger many, the present result Is also more satisfactory." The Tageblatt says: "The Germans greet Mr. McKlnley's election above all as a victory for sound currency over revolutionary money experiments, which would have been calculated most severely to shake the basis of the entire world's commerce. Anyhow, Germany's policy is to nurse close and loyal relations with the head of a country that 1b connected with us by so many economic and na tional ties as the United States. For that reason the Emperor has repeatedly mado approaches to President McKlnley, and the latter has, especially recently, re sponded cordially. There is in no part of the world serious differences between the United States and Germany. In China both powers have marched on the same lines after McKlnley's first feeling of dis trust regarding Germany's territorial schemes subsided. Wje hope that during his forthcoming administration all politi cal questions will be solved between the two countries in the same spirit of fair ness and mutual confidence. Above all we hope that the question ot a commer cial treaty will be solved." The Vosslsche Zeltung says: "Germany can only rejoice at the further strength ening and solidification of the economic conditions In the United States. No state can escape the inconvenience of having competitors in tha world's markets. That must be reckoned with, and we must put forth all our strength In peaceful compe tition. But not only to North American industrial interests Is McKlnley's re-election of great Importance, but also to the entire commerce of the world, which Is vitally Interested in a secure gold cur rency In the United States. For these and a number of other reasons, the result of the election may be considered the smaller one of two evils." The Post says: "The result Is greeted with satisfaction and sympathy In Ger many, for the re-elected President has won the confidence of our government and our diplomacy during his term by his constant efforts to maintain good rela tions between Germany and he United States. In the midst of popular passion the President preserves a cool head and turned aside rude hands, which tried to force him into an anti-German policy. Mr. McKlnley s re-election means a con tinuance of the present relations between Germany and the United States, and we hope that the tariff negotiations between them, will also have as good a mutual re sult" The National Zeltung says: "Mr. Mc Klnley's victory can be received by us with satisfaction, especially from the standpoint of the excellent personal rela tions between the President and the Ero p"eVor, which have repeatedly found ex pression from both sides, and which have also been shown by the friendly settle ment of some of tb Important questions discussed between them during the past fev years. From the standpoint of Inter national monetary relations, the result of the election calls forth the same satisfac tion." The Deutsche Trges Zeltung, which Is the main Agrarian organ, says: "We have, front the first expressed the opinion that tho party which would win was the 1 party which had the most dollars, and l that this narty was tha Republican party Of goldbugs Was an nndouDted fact The whole -Mnencin election could be great ly simplified by each party making a show-down of the.

Asthma, Bronchitis, Incipient Consumption, Rheumatism, Ca tarrh and Other Maladies, Once Dreaded as Incurable, Now Yielding Readily to the Copeiand Treatment. If a man dies ho will not live again till the resurrection. That much Is clear. Medical science has advanced wonderful ly, but It cannot warm a dead man's feet or set In motion a. heart that has stopped. Furthermore, there are living Invalids to whom It can no moro restore health than it can restore life to the dead. It cannot cure fatty degeneration of the heart nor cancer of the stomach, and It cannot re pair a lung that has undergone- total de composition or & liver that has undergone a hardening or a- malignant ulceration. But, in drawing the line between what is possible and what is not possible to en lightened medical science, there is neither sense nor humanity nor professional hon esty in exaggerating the list of Incurable maladies. The physician who holds today that common types ot chronic lung dis ease, chronic kidney disease, chronic liv er disease, or the severer types of catarrh, asthma, rheumatism, etc., are Incurable, because chronic, contradicts a matter of fact attested by 20,000 people who have been cured of those very maladies by the specialists of tho Copeiand Medical Insti tute. A family doctor who knows little of the nature of chronic diseases, and still less of the secrets and subtleties Involved' In their mastery, might well abstain from any expression of "views" regarding their curability or their Incurability. His opin ion has grown In the shade, like hemlock, and may be Just as poisonous as hemlock just as depressing and deadly In Its ac tionwhen administered to patients. To say that the chronic maladies enu merated above will not yield promptly to correct specialty treatment Is either an inexcusable error or an inexcusable false hood. In either Instance it Is an Inexcus able Impertinence In the face of 20,000 in telligent and reputable people, wh6 testify to their radical and lasting cure of thoso diseases by the Copeiand specialists. And when they say "cured," they mean It They do not mean a moment's balm to pain, a little rest to sleepless agony. They mean the complete elimination of the seed poison and seed principle of chronic dis ease and the permanent return of natural health to the. system. But chronic catarrh being the malady most frequently and most impertinently described as Incurable by those who have no real knowledge concerning It, below is presented the symptoms of different form3 of the disease, any sufferer from which may be practically assured of a cure by applying to the Copeiand specialists.

Tho Austrian press is not particularly favorable toward Presi dent McKlnley, and several leading jour nals warn him not to push imperialism too far.
