New York. Nov. 2ft. -H. B. Naan.
f Woodcliff. N. J., claim, to be pos
eased of "haling powers equl to
the famous Schlatter, who has create,
ucb a sensation in Colorado. Naaou
i. a leader of a strain religious wot
in the vicinity of his home, known as
"Angel Dancers." or the "Churchman
.f the Living Hod." He " Prvd
to' assert himself as a healer without
losing his place as the head and center
this little band of devout followers.
According to his story he has been
able, since the beginniug of his mm
istry. to heal those who go to him
through faith, bnt now he gives a more
general invitation. Nasou has been
uoouraged to do this through the suo
.ess of Schlatter, the Colorado healer,
with whose movements he is entirely
familiar. Nason said the other day:
'I am willing to heal those who
ome to me in faith, and I do so with
out money and without price. I only
trust in the Lord, ucniauer una "
doing a great work. Like me he does
otsell his God-given gifts, but he
won't stav there, for those people are
driving him away. I tell yon, it ain t
no use trying to traffio the things of
God, and that's what the people out
there are trying to da Why, they
will sell handkerchiefs or anything else
that Schlatter takes in his hand. Men
will sell their places to anyone willing
to pay a price for it That is the work
f tie devil and nothing else. Shlat
terhasGod with him mightily, and
won't stand that. That is the reason
he disappeared last week and went into
the mountains. It is the Lord who
took him away to rebuke the money
hangers who defile the temple.

New York. Nov. 26.-A special to
the Herald from Washington a
i.i.u i.ua iu dealt the Mear-
agua Canal Company's project for t ie
construction of a waterway across the
Isthmus by the report or tne
canal commission. Inevitable delay
and further aud more thorough inves
tigation of the entire subject are de
clared to be necessary before eveu the
engineering feasibility of canal aero.
..... Ui iWh-i.UhI upon. The
Herald correspondent is able to make
public the review of the eoutents ami
the text of the conclusions of the report
of the Nicaragua caual o.nw.
The report is now lying on the preai
dent's desk, and is being considered by
him in connection with his animal mes
sage to congress.
The report is at such variance with
the numerous rumors aud predictions
which have, from time to time, been
published concerning it that it will ,
cause great surprise aud disappoint
ment among those who have heretofore
placed credence in the rumors which
usuallv stated that "one in the highest
authority" said the commission favored
the route proposed by the company,
aud placed the cost of the caual at
about $110,000,000.
The report points out that it is
neither practicable nor advisable to at
tempt the construction of the Nicara
gua caual upon the data at preseut
available, aud that the undertaking
would be fraught with haxinrds too
obvious to disregard.
That the necessary knowledge may
be had of the physical and topographi
cal conditions affectiug the construc
tion aud maintenance of a caual serosa
Nicaragua, upon which to form a final
judgment as to the feasibility, perma
nency and cost, the commission reooin
mends an appropriation by congress of
$350,000 for extensive additional sur
veys and examinations covering a per
iod of eighteen mouths.
With the data at hand, however, mo
commission makes a provisional esti
mate of the cost. $133,47-'. bua, or
nearly double that of the Maritime Ca
nal Company s uucouomouai rsim.n.c
of $6,9893,660. The comunsion manes
its estimate "provisional." The com
missioners say the existing data are in
adequate as a basis lor esuuiauHg u.o
cost of many structures, c...o
tions of the work may cost more; otn
ers less. .
The report further says the official
estimate by the company of $69,893,
660 is insufficient for the work; that
"in several important cases the quan
tities must be greatly increased, and
in numerous cases the united prices do
not make proper allowance for the dif
ference in cost of work between the
United States and Nicaragua."
The general trend of the entire re
port is certainly very unfavorable to
the canal company.

The Kan 8a Insurrection.
London, Nov. 26. A dispatch to the
Standard fromJShanghai J1 that ,he
rebels have defeated the Chinese army
at Haian, and that they are now mas
ters of half of the province of Kan Su.
The rebellion at Kan Su commenced
about the time of the defeat of the Chi
nese by the Japanese, the imperial
army being routed by the insurgents,
who captured eleven cities. The Pe
king government even went so far as
to discuss the wisdom of an appeal to
Russia for aid in suppressing the insur
rection. Kan Su is the most northwesterly
m-ovince of China, and is bounded on
three sides by Mongolia. Reports
frnm various sources indicate that the
Mohammedans, who are continually
nnarrelinc with the followers of Con
fucius and Buddah, are responsible for
the insurrection.

the Colt case has been settled, and that
he thinks no more will be heard of
either Mrs. Colt's Buit or the suit
against J. J. Van Allen. Francis Col
well, attorney for Colt, also says that
the case is settled. Although particu
lars of the settlement have not been
morln tinhlic. it is understood Mrs-l
Colt's alimony will be much less than
at first demanded. Mrs. Colt is ex
pected to go abroad at once for an in
definite period.
Gompers Will Again Be a Candidate.
Chicago, Nov. 23. A letter from a
trade unionist in the East, very close
to Samuel Gompers, says the ex-president

tively will be a candidate against Pres
ident John McBride for the leadership
of the organization. Gompers was
defeated by McBride at the Denver
convention, but at the Chicago conven
tion, two years ago, when McBride
was a candidate for the first time and
when he was present, notwithstanding
that there were numerous lobbies and
deals between the opposition, Gompers
was elected by a safe majority.
