and Iowa houses w ill also lose heavily.
The importers have discounted the
future and have sold their stocks at a
liberal advance on former prices. One
Chicago and New York house is report­
ed to have cleaned up $250.000, and
other importers are supposed to have
done equally well. The grocers tried
to cover, with the result that the de­
mand for immediate shipment raised
in Japan 7Jk cents. Some o f the gro­
cers, rather than stand this, decided to
oountermand their orders and take
their chances o f securing a modification
of the tariff bill.
The delegation sent to Washington
was appointed at a conference in C hi­

Hancock, of Dubuque. They w ill ask
that the tariff bill he amended to pro­

fit. Lonis, May 26.— The ashes of
Rudolph Rosin were cast into the M is­
sissippi river last evening, from near
the center o f the Bails bridge.
Rosin
had spent most o f his life in the vicin ­
ity o f Cincinnati. Al«out a year ago
he visited his birthplace in northern
Germany and w hile there was taken
sick and died. During his illness he
prepared a w ill in which he provided
that his body should tie cremated anil
his ashes returned to his Cincinnati
relatives, and kept by them until May
23, 1897, the anniversary of his birth,
and then thrown from the Eads bridge
of fit. Louis into the Mississippi river.
Last evening a well-dressed man
walked on the bridge from fit. Louis.
He carried a small black box. When
near the center he stopped, opened the
box and emptied what appeared to be a
few handfuls o f ashes into the river
below. W ithout priest or prayer, all
that remained of Rudolph Kosin was
thus cast into the great river.

Philadelphia. May 25.— A fte r being
chased twice by Spanish gunboats and
passing through a perfect storm of
shot, which splashed in the water
across the vessel’ s bow, the British
fruit steamer Ethelred passed through
the exciting ordeal unscathed, and ar­
rived at this port tonight, after a five
days’ run from Port Antonio, Jamaica.
When the Ethelred left here May
12, it was the intention o f Captain
Hart to aocom[>any her, but he was ar­
rested an be was about to step on the
gangplank to go aboard. As it was,
his invalid daughter was a passenger.
It is supposed that agents of the Span­
ish government in this city had notified
the Spanish authorities at Havana that
Hart would be on the vessel, hence the
effort to hold up the Ethelred in Cu­
ban waters
The first encounter with the Spanish
cruisers occurred off Cape Mayai on the
trip down. Jnst alter dusk, on Sun­
day evening, May 16, a gunboat w ith­
out any lights shot out from under the
Maysi cap«es, and, crowding on all
steam, steered directly for the fruit
vessel.
A fte r steaming for an hour without
gaining an inch, the gunboat turned a
searchlight on the other vessel. A ll
steam possible was crowded on the
Ethelred, which was beginning to show
a clean pair of heels to the Spaniard,
until a cloud o f smoke belched from
the cruiser's side and a second later a
solid shot ent the water a half mile
ahead of her bow. Then came a sec­
ond and third shot, each nearer than
the others. . Captain Israel kept on his
coarse, and after an hour’s chase the
gpianiard dropped from the race.
The second chase happened last
Thursday in the exact spjot where the
first attempt to hold np the vessel oc­
curred. Just as the Ethelred rounded
Cape Maysi, a big Spanish gunboat of
the newest typ>e started from the cap>e
and gave chase to the Ethelred. For
two hours the chase was kept up, en­
livened now and then by a solid shot
throw ing up a sheet o f white spray just
ahead o f the sw ift vessel’s bow. It
began to look as if the Spaniard meant
to chase the Ethelred clear to the Dela­
ware capes, when another steamer was
sighted and the gunboat sheered off
and gave vigorns chase to the newly
discovered steamer.
