ESTABLISH
NEW PORT
,-ist Scheme to Secure Trade of the
Orient Syndicate l'lans to De
velop Harbor in Mexico.
New Youk, May '20. The Tribune
nays: The plant of a Hyndicate bunded
by II. Clay Pierce, of St. Louie, if) is be
lieved, in ttiH at securing the b;ilk of
truiiHportntion of thut vast import nnd
export trade between America and Asia
which io as yet only in its infancy. The
corner-Btonu of Mr. Pierce's Hcheme, us
announced, is believed to botheestablish
liient of 11 new Pacific Coufet port for
deep sea vessels at Manzanillo, on the
south west coast of Mexico; and one of
the chief links in the chain whb forged
the other day when Mr. Pierce's party
alieady had control of the St. Louis &
.San Francisco, of the Fort Scott system
and of the Fort Worth road.
The western terminus of tiie Mexican
Central is Colima, which is only 85 miles
from Manzanillo, and which is described
us a nutural land-locked harbor, suitable
for sea-tioinn Ve sstls of the heaviest draft.
Lure sums of money will be expended,
it is said, to make this one of tiie finest
ports on the Pacific Coast, and the ex
tension of the Mexican Central lines from
Colima to Manzanillo will be at once
undertaken and lie pushed rapidly to
completion. After that two connecting
link m remain to be ereBted between the
St. Louis & Sun Francisco system and
the Mexican Central in order to complete
the chain between Manzimillo and St.
Louis. The Mexican International Kail
road will be one of these. It connects
with the Mexican Central at Torreon.
A new line must be built to connect
the Mexican International with the St,
Louis & Sun Francisco. This new lino
will extend from Sherman, Tex., to
Jitmle Pass, on the Itio Grande. When
it is built through freight can be carried
from Manzanillo without trans-shipment
to St. Louis and also to Birmingham,
Ala., from which point direct connection
may be made with Savannah, Ga., over
the Southern Railroad. It is asserted
that this route from Manzanillo to St.
Louis, and thence to New York, will be
fully 1 1100 miles shorter than from Sun
Francisco to this city.
It is said that the Seligmane, of this
city, are financing the deal. Isaac N.
Seligman said ;
"I cannot talk to you now about this.
I may have something to suy to you
later."
But even that was more than his part
ners would vouchsafe. J. Stewart Muckie,
vice-president of the Mexican Interna
tional Hallway, Baid it was too early yet
to discuss the part which his road might
or might not not play in the enterpiise.

Nkw Yokic, May 20. "Socialism ar
gues," declurud the Kev. Dr. Lyman
Abort, in the pulpit of Plymouth church,
Brooklyn, "that so long as private prop
erty exists so long will there he ambition
and striving for wealth on the part of
the individual. When we have destroyed
this, says the socialist, and made every
thing into pno state in other words,
when wo have abolished Mr, Carneeie
and established Mr. Croker, all will bo
well.
"It is our duty to make a nation bo
pervaded by the spi.it of Christ tluU it
shall be a witness of I lie power and grace
of God. This we Americans have done,
in a measure. Wo have treated the
foreigners who have come to us as no
nation lias ever done. Wo have granted
to them our factories and schools. Our
country is a revolatiou of the way the
pour and lowly ought to be treated.
Nothing is so inspiring us the way the
southern states have endeavored to up
lift the w'Kro we. The reports thut
como to northerners of cruelty und in
justice are not representative, for the
South bus indeed done nobly."
After citing our nution us an example
for other nations, Hussia in her treat
ment of her people; Germany in Iter
dealing! with tiie Chinese, Dr. Abbott
said this was not inspired by mere
national pride.
"I thank God that this one American
nation stood for the rights of even a
hostile China, that the government did
not transgress upon its rights and it was
the firet to withdiaw its troops."

department of the interior allowing 123,
000 sheep to be grazed on the reserve

Chicago, May 20. A special to the
Record-Herald from St. Paul says:
Railroad men who have knowledge ol
the plans of J. J. Hill are positive in the
assertion that ex-Senator Pettigrew will
he made the executive head of the Great
Northern system. It had been inti
mated that he would succeed President
Mellen, of the Northern Pacific, but
this is considered erroneous. It is gen
erally accepted here as a fact that Mr.
Hill lias decided to make New York bis
permanent home.

mother at Oakland and saw the launch

In conversation with Governor Geer,
President McKinley said that tiie people
of Oregon cannot be more disappointed
over the change in his plans than he is
himself, for he has always entertained a
high regard for the people of this Btate
and Iihb long wished to visit them.

San Fhancisco, May 20. At 9:30 this
morning Secretary Cortelyou gave out
the following:
"Mrs, McKinley's physicians report
that she had the best night since her
illness, and that her progress is very
satisfactory."
The night at the Scott residence was
a quiet one. The president retired about
11:30 and slept all night without being
disturbed. This morning at 8 o'clock
Drs. Gibbons, Hirschfelder and Cushing
culled and remained about an hour in
consultation with Dr. Rixey. They left
the house apparently very well satisfied
with Mre. McKinley's condition.
The President had some early callers
this morning. A deputation of clergy
men comprising Rev. Drs. Pond,
Gardner, Dennett and Hammond, the
latter the superintendent of the Method
ist Chinese Mission, in company with
four Chinese ministers, called on the
president. The Chinese presented to
Mr. McKinley a beautiful banner, to
gether with a memorial, thanking him
for his efforts in aiding the Chinese dur
ing the recent trouble in China. The
banner bore the inscription in Chinese,
saying; "Presented to William Mc
Kinley, August President of Great
America, by the Chinese Meinbere of
the Church of Jesus Christ in San
Francisco, as a Token of Their Honor
and 'raise."
The president accepted the banner
and thanked the delegation, which then
retired.
Secretary Cortelyou Btated that the
president had made no arrangements
for today, but would decide later as to
his programme. It is very probable that
he will inspect the returned soldiers from
the Philippines either today or tomor
row. -

Nkw Yoiik, May 20. The Herald
quotes J. Hamilton Lewis, ex-member
of congress from the state of Washington,
as saying at a hotel here:
"Democrats ot the Northwest favor
David Bennett Hill, of New York, as
the next candidate for president, und
Tom L. Johnson, of Ohio, as the nominee
for vice-president, in my opinion.
"Mr. Bryan has told me that he is not
a candidate for the presidency, and does
not desire to be considered as such. I
believe thut the main issue of the next
campaign will be the tariff. Practical
free-trade is the only possible solution
of the great industrial revolution which
is now impending."

Fortune favored us in this transaction. Underwear such as we offer here, is not

The name of the maker is withheld by special request though the same is quite
