The popularity of thisc suits has become so great that we have been compelled to open correspondence with over one hundred of the largest Tail oring concerns throughout the country in order to get these suits fant enough to supply the enormous demand. These are not misfits, but suits made to order on which deposits have been paid and which for unkown reasons remained uncalled for. Such things happen to every Tailoring establish jstablishmcnt. It is by advertising and making a feature of selling these suits that they find it more advantageous to consign them to us than to attempt to dispose of them from their own establishments.

NNW YOHK, Oot. S0.-A dispatch to the Journal and Advortlm-r from Wash ington says: The South AtlanUo squadron hm been ordered to the scene of the African hos tilities Secretary Long ao declared to nlKht. It la the second groat development from tlil country'! standpoint In tho Kuropeun crisis,' and, strangely enough, follows yesterday notification by Groat Britain of Germany's proportion foi the partition of tint Bamoan group, tho news of which was exclusively an nounced through tho Journal this morning in thet dispatches. The attitude of this country If ho, tile to tho German proposition and Gorman pretensions as to Samoa cannot fall to b regarded as of tho greatest significance. The European concert, evidently desirous of getting a practical Illustration of this country's attitude, Is credited with having lin polled Germany to make the first test. The result Is that the United State has demonstrated her frlondllnes to (livut Ililtnln, thus verifying the pre dictions that the United States would maintain the Hiatus quo In Samoa. Secretary Long wis found at his apartments In the Portland. "Yes," said the secretary In response to a question, "Ilar-Admlral Schley will be ordered to East African waters and the squadron will be Increased to whatever extent the situation demands. 1 do not think, as at pnwnt advised, a larger squadron than the Chicago, the Montgomery and the Wilmington Is nvtvemiiry.but as I have said, there may be contingencies which would make It advisable to largely add to these ves sels." Sccrntary Long denied that Ttear Ad miral Schley hod .nade a request for a larger squadron, "but," he said, "I pre sume nny commanding officer going to the EaRt African const at this time would prefer to have a representative squndron," It Is 'the understanding that If any of thfl larger ships be. sent, It will bo the Texas. With the Chicago, Mont gomery, Wilmington and Texas and four or flv smaller cruisers It would constitute a representative squadron. The feeling at the navy department that It would be well o have a large American squadron crulnlng off East Africa Is a growth of the loft few days. It Is undoubtedly based on the news received In Washington that contingen cies may arise In the progress of the war In the Transvaal which would inako the. presence of a larger body of sailors and marines a necessity In that neighborhood. ANOTHER imiGtlS. I'rofissor MKJIrTert May Be Tried for Heresy. NEW YORK. Oot. t'O.-Failure ho met the effort af the committee ap pointed by the New Tork Prsbytrian synod to Induce FTofcasor Arthur C. McOlffert of Union seminary quietly to resign from the Preebyttrlan ministry. At the final meeting of the committee It was decided so to report to the Pres bytery at Its next meeting on November l.t. The opinion In Preebyterlan cir cle) Is Renernl that, with the decision of Professor McOlffert not to withdraw, the trial of another Union seminary professor for heresy will be difficult to avoid. T.Vi committee win report to the Presbytery that Pressor McGlffert's views are not In "accord with cardinal doctrines of the church, and will rec ommend that the Presbytery refer the case to the general assembly for more definite Instructions. It Is not cct tain that the Presbytery will accept the recommendation of Its committee to ref r the case bock to the general assembly, as It Is quite within Its power to ord'r a trial of Professor Mcdlflfert on Its own 'responsibility. Presbyterian opinion Is general, how ever, that the Presbytery to proceed at once with a trial would Invite criticism. Professor McOlffert and the members of the committee refuse to discuss the controversy for publlcatoln.

' SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 30.-The navy hospital ship Solace, which has been undergoing extensive repairs at Mare Island, has ben plaoed In commission and will sail for Manila In a few days.

This Government is Nut Equitably Hound tu Pay u Third of the Loss. NEW YORK, Oct. SO. A special to the Herald from Woshlgton says: . Some progress Is being mode In the negotiation between the three govern ments signatory to the Berlin treaty looking to tho settlement of the Samoa claims. The character of the settlement can not be stated at this time, but It can b? stated with authority that the pres ident has no Intention of agreeing to any proposition whereby the United States will contribute an equal share with Germany and Great ' Britain to satisfy the claims. The authorities are ot the opinion that this government should not pay a cent toward the set tlement of tin claims. This opinion Is based upon the prin ciple time whore an- American ship caused the damage which created the ('Infills, yet the cause of her act was the conc'uot of the German officials In ex citing the native to armed resistance. The claims of Americans and native who have submitted their accounts to this government are small when com pared with those preferred by subjects or Germany and Great Britain and lit would be manifestly unjust for this government to enter Into an agreement to contribute a sum equal to that given by Germany and Great Britain for the settlement of claims. ' It Is expected that another commis sion, will be appointed to consider the claim, but that an agreement will be reached by the three governments. CARL HAVING A HARD TIME. San Fiandsco Chronicle. Carl Browne 1 trying to get up an other Coxey army to march from Den ver to Washington. So for Browne is th only recruit, the Colorado working men being too busy to march and the tramps preferring to ride on brake beams. As for Coxey himself, he 1 now the plutocratic owner of a mlije and has materially charged hi opinion about a national pool of property and the personal advantage of the grass plot politics. He who Is taught to live upon little, owes more to his father' wisdom than he that has a great deal left him does to his father' care. ARBITRATION TO BE PROPOSED. NEW YORK. Oot. 30.
