4 TMh. MOIIMM ASTUU1AA FKIlA, Pl'mHLK 19, ', KRUGER TO HAVE GRAND RECEPTION France Will Hold Out Vague Hopes of Intervention. ANYTHING TO HURT ENGLAND Netherlands Riilway li Sou Ik Africa Wilt Be Confiscated to RalM Resources to Meet Indemnity Claims of the Loyal. NEW TORK. Oct. IS. It l Mated on excellent authority, says a cablegram to the Times from Parts, that ex-PrwIJent Kruger will, after landing at Marseilles, paea through Paris and that he will be received with alt the honors due to the head of a state. The municipality of Marseilles Is rr ak lns preparations for a grand reception for Kruger and it Is quite certain that be will be enthusiastically received by the population In general. The recommencement of active de fense in the Transvaal ha reawakened European Interest tn the Boer cause, and the French government in common with other European government Is not sorry to see this reawakening of sympathy, as Great Britain's hands are 11 but completely tied while the Boers remain active. In China and in the settlement of any difference Tilth Great Britain her rivals can therefore take advantage. It ia quite likely for thla reason that Europe, and especially France, will give a semblance of encouragement to Mr. Kruger and will hold out a vague hope of intervention. A well-informed politician has stated that this will be tbe policy of the French government. Kruger will be well received and the Boers will be encouraged as much as possible. The end of hostilities need tot therefore be looked for at present Mr. Kruger'a friends are still hoping that he will visit America. RAILWATS TO BE CONFISCATED. NEW TORK. Oct. It-South Afri cans explain the investigation in prog' resa there respecting concessions In the Transvaal as a preliminary measure for the confiscation of the Netherlands Railway and other properties, says the Tribune's London correspondent They assert that some resources must be found for meeting the Indemnity claims or the loyalists of -Natal and Cape Colony for the destruction of their property and the loss of their cattle and horses. Land taxes will yield little when the two new colonies are Impover ished, and the mining industry cannot be bled until it is reorganized and is in a flourishing condition. The railways are the only assets which can be made available at an ear ly day as the basis for an adjustment of the Indemnity claims. The state rail road of the Orange River Cclony. South Africans say, can be confiscated by military conquest and the Nether lands Company's property, they be lieve, will share the same fate, as it was subsidized by the Transvaal gov ernment and was the base of the Boer line of military defense. NEW BATTLESHIPS. American Naval Board of Construction Advocates Construction of Gun boats and Battleships. NEW YORK, Oct. lS.-Germany's great naval Increase will play an Im portant part In the determination of the recommendation for new vessels which the navy board on construction wl,l submit to Secretary Long, says the Washington correspondent of the Herald. This board has commenced an Infor nml Cifcusslon of the program wMch the secretary is to submit to congress, and views expressed by several mem bers ehowfd that they are taking into consideration the navy mpercr Wil liam is building. All of the members desire that this government shall have a navy at least the size of that of Ger many and some favor a fleet which thall make the United States the third naval power of the world. It Is ap preciated that it Is Impossible for this government to provide a fleet superior to the navies of Great Britain and France, but they hold that It should be the equal of Russia and Germany, on the seas. During the discussion gome of the members urged that battleships only be recommended for construction and that enough he provided to make the In crease equal to Germany's force. At least three members of the board fav ored battleship construction. One mem ber is said to have Ftrongly advocated the authorization of twenty gunboats for service in the West Indies. Philip pines and China, and in support of this he pointed out that there were thir teen battleships, armored cruisers and protected cruisers under construction and the shipbuilding facilities of the country would be exhausted in their completion. From complete Indications the board will favor the authorization of three battleships and twelve gunboats of about 1000 tons each. There is no In tention of recommending armored or prelected cruisers as the board seems to think the United States wants very large and very small vessels and none of an Intermediate class. ISTHMIAN CANAL COMMISSION. Is Inclined to Favor the Nlcaraguan Route. NEW YORK, Oct. 18. A special to the Herald from Washington tays: The Isthmian canal commission is at work on its report, but it is evident that It will find it Impossible to do more than submit a preliminary state mfr.t to congress when tne session be gin.. This report will present facts and fig ures referring to both the Panama canal and the Nlcaraguan route. A vote has not yet been taken by the com mission as to which will be reennv mended nor will a decision be reached until Information has been received re- carding both projects. 11. Matin, president of the Panama Canal Company, has arrived In Wash ington ami paid his respects to the enmmistiion. He came to Washington In compliance with the request of Rear Admiral Walker and wilt stay here un til he can be spared, when he will re turn to Paris. He will come back to Wahlngton during the session of con gren. Notwithstanding the comriUslon has not taken a wte as 1 1 th route. It Is apparent In the trend ot !'s Investiga tion that it favor the Nicaragua water way. IUvauM of the dimensions and dis placement of modern steamships n lia been determined that a canal thirty ftet dtep will be too small, and the commission Is preparing estimates on a canal which shall be ihlrty-flve feet In d pth and have a mlntirum width of 1W feet. On the thirty foot canal the majority of the Wa'.ker commission es timated the cost at abvUit M25.00O.0OO. The Increase In depth and width pro jected will necessarily make the pro jected canal more expensive. Borings uie Wing made to ascertain if the In creased excavation necessary win re quire the removal of rock or soft dirt. Advocates of the Nicaragua canal are getting considerable comfort out of the fact that the execution f the route recommended by the first Walker com mission has, except In a few Instances, shown Its entire practicability. Kn Inrit, rirft,. ll. Ollf hv tht. lfh mlan commission have gone over every I foot of the Pute. They have recom- mended that the sites of the several l.vks be changed and the commission will adopt their recommendations. The general Impression seems to be, how ever, that the commission win favor the Walker route provided that when the borings are made for a larger canal they do not show that the cost would be txcesstve. Canal Company, who Is In thla city, ' abundance that their capacity Is en sald last night that the company was i aJ for many months to come. The prepared tonwt any if the conditions capture of the East river brldgework which might be laid down by the lsth- b" he Pennsylvania Steel I ompary In mlan commission and was ready and i v,,v a11' w oo ,ons of material of willing to conform to any of Us rec ommendations. It was a matter of Im possibility, however, for the Panama ijoi tannt io outline li mr nf action, as everything would depend I upon the results that would be re- ! ported bv the commission. He declared I there are no obstacles which engineer- Ing skill cannot ovetvom? In making the Panama canal aeceptahle to the Isthmian commission and that a canal of thirty-rive feet in depth with a min imum width of 150 feet is perfectly feas ible at the Panama route. CHANGES IN THE CABtNET. Rumor Mongers Continue Speculating; Concerning British War and Colo nial Offices. NEW TORK, Oct. lS.-The rumor mongers are again reconstructing the British cabinet, says the Tribune s Lon don correspondent Lord Salisbury Is most reticent and deliberate and there Is only one associate whom l.e corsults. This is Mr. Balfour, who tn due time will succeed him. The best Informed men do not look for the immediate re organization of the cabinet, but expect that the pro?ess will not be completed before February. Officers In the army do not favor the appointment of either Mr. Chamber lain or General Kitchener to the war office. Mr. Baron, when h was In Lon- don as the champion of the Australian federation, made no secret cf his pref erence for Mr. Chamberlain as the Eng lish statesman who could render the greatest service to the caus? of im perial federation. He believes that Mr. Chamberlain. If allowed to remain for a second term In the colonial office, would carry out some practical scheme by which the self-governing colonies of the empire cculd have permanent r Nr no1"1" U agues considered an imperial zollve- rein practicable, but they were con vinced that some approach to Imperial federatkr. would be made as a direct result of the cooperation of the col onies in South Africa If Mr. Chamber lain remained in the colonial office. Members of parliament In sympathy with him assert that his real constitu ency lies In the stlf-governlng colonies, which he represents more closely than l any other Englishman, ana tnat ne i would be likely to get out or toucn with them If he were to abandon tne colonial office. Premltr Laurier's declaration that the only basis for Imperial eollvereln Is absolute free trade with the em pire, but that the time is not ripe for Its fulfillment attracts much attention In London. England has been ready for that zollvereln since Cobden's time. It is not by any m?ans certain that Mr. Chamberlain would :iot be willing. aa he once suggested to a Canadian club, to have free trade wunin tne empire and a revenue tariff on wool, sugar and foodstuffs from the outside. REGISTERED MAIL STOLEN. Bold Theft of a Heavy Pouch at a New York Station. NEW YORK. Oct. 18. It has become known that five bags of registered mall enclosed in one large pouch were stolen from Station H. at the corner of Lex ington Avenue and East Forty-fourth street, cn Monday night last, ana so far the postoffice inspectors have been unable to locate the thief, although suspicion has fallen on one man. The pouch, whlth was so heavy tnai only a strong man could move It, was stolen before It reached the del. very wagon and while It was still at the station. It had been duly checked off, sealed and locked with a numbered key. With another pouch cf registered mall It had been deposited on the floor near the employe's entrance. When the wegon called for It. Station Clerk Nath an discovered that It was missing. Search in and around the station fail ed to reveal it. The payment on the checks contained in the bag has been stopped. The amount In cash is not supposed to have exceeded $1000, but the value of the contents of the registered letters, which were directed to many parts of the globe, can only be guessed at. JUDGE M'DONALD'S TRIAL. Sensational Testimony Introduced Con cerning Corruption of the Courts of the County. COLFAX. Wash.. Oct. 18,-At the hearing today of Judge William Mc Donald, of the superior court, on the charge of subornation of perjury, ex Prosecuting Attorney McDonald tried to force Win Keech to concoct and Bwear to a story connecting J. E. Ness ly, McDonald's political enemy, with some crime and said he would try the case and send Nc-ssly to the peniten tiary tor twenty years. The hearing will last all the week. Matthews testified that the reason he did not cause McDonald's arrest while he was prosecuting was that McDon ald had surrounded himself with such a corrupt gang that It was Impossible to get Justice in the courtn of this county. IRON MARKET QUIET. Buyer Are Awaiting Result uf the Presidential Election. NEW TORK. Oct. lS.-The Iron Age tn Its current Issue reviewing the nmr ket says: Generally speaking the markets are quiet, a foot which Is iulte unlvr- sally attributed to the desire n the part of the buyers to await develop ments In the presidential election. In ordinary years this Is the period In which a determined struggle is made for winter work for the rolling mills. While that has. been secured in some branches, as In the bar trades where prices were sharply cut. it Is not on the order books In other departments. Pittsburg reports a somewhat tinner tone In the pig Iron market, although the volume of transactions I so light that the slightest pressure to market the product might turn the seii'e. In the east the largest transaction ap pears to have been a sal of 4000 tons of basic pig to an Eastern Pennsylva nia mill at $14 delivered. In the stel rail trade the announce ment has been made that the Pennsyl vania railroad has decided to buy 150. 000 tons for next year's delivery. So far as we can learn, however, the al- Jotment on even a part of th-- work not be,?n maJe ,0 tn, t"-vldual mills. To the outside observer It seems dltllcult to understand why the id should be In a hurry to place their orders now for distant dellverl-'s. In the plate trade a slightly aslr tone Is noted. Chicago reports a nle of about 2000 tons of universal p'ates to a local Arm of merchants. In struc tural steel It Is understood that the i leading Interests hnve contracts In such which a considerable rart will go to Pittsburg. The cast Iron pipe trade In the Knst Is very quiet and competition between ,hl? consolidation and the mtslde shops I very keen. Chicago reports the sale of an SOOO-ton lot to a rallrutd corn- P&n), LET THE ENGLISH COPY US. Croker Thinks That's the Solution of the Jockey Problem. NEW YORK, Oct, IS. Several prom inent race horse owners express de cided opinions on Lord Durham's crit icisms in regard to Ameri.-an owners, trainers and Jockeys. It Is the main topic of conversation at the Morris Park course. "I do not think," said Richard Cro ker, "that Lord Durham Is right. English boys have the same chances to learn the American style of riding as our boys have. We would be quick enough to follow English style out here If the English Jockeys taught us any thing. There ought to be no restric tions as to nationality. I suppose American trainers will not b? able to get any more licenses to train at New. market. Superiority of American Jockeys consists In putting the saddle forward and the crouching attitude which offers less wind resistance. land that can be copied. Depend upon it the English boys will have to come to It." David Gideon said: "I think Lord Durham's criticism Is entirely uncalled for. Any boy lhat does wrong should be punished, be he American or Scotchman." STURDY BICYCLING. .dorado Man Makes Good Time on a Trip to Boston. NEW YORK. Oct. IS. Thomas J. Corcoran, of Aspen, ;!() miles north west of Denver, who is riding a wheel from Denver to Boston, has arrived In New York, after averaging TO inlles a day for 30 days. Corcoran starts for Boston tomorrow. He left on August 14 and has made his ride alone. A ten-pound baggage roll was his sole encumbrance, as he did not even carry a tool bag. The run to Denver was the hardest of his trip, it being over a steep mountain trail. This route has led him through Topeka, St. Joseph. Qulncy, Springfield. Indianap olis. Detroit. Niagara Kalis, Albany end down the Hudson valley to New York. Corcoran does not attempt to make a record for speed. He expressed his luggage from point to point, lived com fortably and rested whenever he felt tired. His longest day's ride wns 108 miles, made over the prairies of Kansas. He Is going to ride back to Aspen af ter a four days' rest In Boston. SOUTHERN PACIFIC AFFAIRS. The Speyers Have Inaugurated a New Policy. SAN FKANCISCO, Oct. lS.-O. H. Manning, right of way agent cf the Southern Pacific, has resigned his po sition, which it Is asserted has become a sinecure. According to the Examiner, a new policy has been adopted by the Speyers, now the controlling factor In the cor poration. When the Improvements now under way are completed they will stop construction wcrk and devote some of the earnings to paying dividends. Jas. Soever, it Is stand, has decided that the new president of the road yet to be chosen must reside In San Francisco and must devote his time to extending the traffic of the line, keeping down expenses and beginning to pay divi dends at the earliest possible c'ay. It is said that the company's traffic Is now so diversified that failure of a crop or product here or there along Its lines In any given year cannot mater ially affect the earnings in any one year. For the year ending June 20, 1300, the gross earnings were In excess of $03,040, 000, the largest In the history of the company. So far in the pres-n fiscal year the earnings show an Increase over last year's big showing. Among the construction works now In progress Is the completion of the coast division from that city to Los Ange les, the cut-off route between Ogden and Los Angeles, the Montalvo branc h, a double track along the bay shore from this city to Ran Bruno, new wharves and terminals at Galveston and the reconstruction of the recent ly purchased line from Houston to Galveston.
