!st. Louis Official Shows Aeronaut
Was Not Careful of Airship.
ST. LOUIS, Juno 29. Lieutenant-!
fXJolonol H. P. Kingsbury, U. S. A
Commandant of the Jefferson Guard,
who has been investigating the at
tempted destruction of the gas bag of
Santos Dumont's airship, made his re
port to President Francis, of the Louisi
ana Purchase Exposition Company, to
night. Commandant Kingsbury says in
part:
"I learn from Lieutenant "Walsh, -of
the Secret Service, who has investigated
tho mattor thoroughly, that Mr. Hud
son told him he several times yesterday
afternoon spoke to Mr. Dumont of the
advisability of placing1 special watch
men ovor the balloon and placing tho
covor on tho box. This Mr. Dumont did
not do, only partially replacing the
cover, as ho stated he desired to get all
the air possible In contact with the bal
loon. If air had been essential to the
balloon, as much could have been ob
tained if a strong wire netting had
"been placed over the top of the box,
the covor of which was only about half
removed, anyway.
"Ono of Mr. Dumont's assistants is
said to carry a large, strong knife.
Owing to the strength of the numer
ous folds' and thicknesses of the bal
loon envelope, some such knife as this
would havo been necessary to cut the
balloon.
'A casual examination of tho build
ing- in Its present condition could not
fail to convince any one that even with
a vigilant watchman it woulc be
very simple matter for a determined
person to do what was done last night.
"I am told Mr. Hudson stated today
that the balloon could be repaired here.
at least temporarily, in two to five days.
"The above report is a compilation
of personal observations, reports of my
subordinates and conversations with
the Secret Service men."
Charles F. Morrison, "who was arrest
ed and confined In the Fair Police Sta
tion on a charge of having- wielded the
knife on the gas bag, was released to
night, the authorities being of the opin
ion that there was not sufficient evi
dence to Justify holding him.
It Is stated that Mr. Dumont will leave
at once for jrarls, taking the gas bag
with him. and return to the United
States, probably within six weeks.

F0BTY-0DD FIEEMEN OVERCOME
Gas Mains Break While New York
Fire Is Raging Fiercely.
NEW YORK, June 29. Forty-three
firemen, four of whom will probably die.
were overcome by smoke and gas at a
fire today in the sub-cellar of the double
five-story brick building, at Nos. 4S3 and
4S5 Broadway, extending through ro Mer
cer street. Half a hundred employes
were driven from the building and the
damage inflicted by fire, water and smoke
was estimated at between $150,000 and
$200,000. The fire was so situated that It
was difficult to fight until it had burned
about an hour. The smoke was so
dense that the firemen could work
in it only for a few minutes at a time,
and many of those who braved It fell
prostrate where they stood. Some whd
fell lay nnnoticed on the .floor for min
utes, and one man remained for nearly
an hour before finally being discovered
and dragged to the open air. The break
ing of gas mains inside the building, and
the consequent filling of the burning
structure with illuminating gas, added
greatly to the difficulty and the danger.
Captain Edward Levy and Firemen
Patrick McKeever, John Wandress and
John Riley will probably die from their

ASSAILED BY GERMAN TRADE.
American Customs Law Held to Be t
. Unjust in Several Particulars.
BERLIN, June 29. An Important me
morial on the American customs admin
istration and German trade has been pre
sented by the League of German Manu
facturers tew Chancellor von Buelow,
Baron von Klchthoff, Secretary of For
eign Affairs; Herr Mueller, Prussian
Minister of Commerce and Industry, and
to Herr Buenz, German Consul-General
at New York, who are now in Berlin.
The memorial is based upon material
which the league collected In accordance
with a resolution adopted in 1903, and
was written by the Saxon manufacturer,
Alfred Petschow, who was sent to the
United States to collect Information
among importers. The league summar
izes its views in the following five points:
"First The American Government
should be prevailed upon to accept Ger
man manufacturers' declaration, sworn
to before American Consuls, as evidence
of value in all cases.
"Second It Is necessary to reintroduce
the former privilege of appealing directly
to the American Treasury Department,
because, under the present practice, a
decision rendered by the general ap
praisers cannot be overthrown, even
when the courts find it to be erroneous.
"Third The general appraisers should
be required to communicate to the im
porter sentenced the penalty and duty
and reasons for the hoard's decisions, so
that the importer can defend himself.
"Fourth The practice of classing Ger
man goods sold In the United States as
consigned and subject to special legisla
tion, merely because the Invoices are
made out in dollara and cents, should
cease.
"Fifth Shipments of goods and sam
Dles should not be detained In public
storehouses, as-jiltherto, under the buy
er's refusal to take the goods because
of too late delivery, as the samples are
no longer available for the approaching
season."
The memorial complains that such re
tention now occurs, even when bond of
security la offered. It concludes with
reference to the importance of the Ger
man market to American exporters, as
being much greater than that of the
American market to Germany, and ar
gues, therefore, that it is only a ques
tion of how the German Government acts
In the matter which will decide the re
sponse of the American Government to
the wishes of the German manufacturer.

Germany Wants Guards Who Assault

BERLIN, June 29. The German gunboat
Panther, now at Newport News, received
orders by cable to sail for Port au Prince
today.
(The sailing of the Panther for Port

many to Insist upon tho punishment of
the Palace Guards who recently threw

America Will Not Intervene.
WASHINGTON, Juno 29. Jt Is said
the State Department never has taken
the ground that the smaller republics
ought to be protected by the United
States as against reclamations by Eu
ropean powers for violated contract
obligations In International obligations,
such as it Is alleged is involved in this
attack on the foreign Ministers. So, if
the demands made on Hayjti by France

pressive. In the judgment of the State
Department, there will be no Interfer
ence by this Government, but develop
ments will be watched with keen In

drawn and undue punishment is not
Inflicted. It Is not doubted that the
Haytien government will supplement
its lnadeauate letter of apology by pun

LIBERAL CLUB DISBUPTED
Significant Political Development in
Britain.
LONDON, June 30. A significant po
litical development, which calls out
much comment from all the morning
newspapers, is the disruption of the
Liberal Union Club at yesterday's
meeting, when 64 members withdrew,
after announcing their resignation from
the club.
The trouble arose over a resolution
to send representation of the club to
the Liberal Unionist Council. By a ma
jority of 108, composed of the follow
ers of Joseph Chamberlain, the club de
cided to be represented in the council,
and when the result was announced,
the minority of 64 Immediately with
drew and formed a new club under tho
name of the Unionist Free-Trade Club.
The Liberal Union Club has been rec
ognized as a powerful organization,
thoroughly representative of the Lib
eral Unionist party.
