' It is now certain the bands of Cm.

tbat the Catalonians will identify their

South America, who baa arrived here,
and is on bia way to his borne in
Wheeling, W. Va.. said in an inter-
lew that matters in Colombia ara
aadly mixed. The Liberals started a
second revolution a few daya ago, and
it haa developed great strength. The
fighting baa been fierce and up to data
tbe killed and wounded bave number
ed 30,000.
While the Liberals have met with
much success, it is my belief tbat tha
government will be eventually success
ful. Hut tbe revolution is seriously
disturbing business. General Pro-pero
Pinion is in command of the govern
ment forces, and tbe revolutionista are

St. Thomas, D. W. L, Nov. 2. At
tn extraordinary meeting of the colon
ial counoil at St. Croix, D. W. I.,
Monday, tbe vice-chairman denounced
the statements made by A. J. Black
wood, tbe United States consul at St.
Croix, and chairman of the colonial
sounctl, in an interview printed in
New York, October 26, in which Mr.
Blackwood waa quoted aa saying tbe
sentiment of tbe people of the Danish
west Indies ia strongly in favor of an
nexation. The vice-chairman said tbe
allegations made were opposed to the
facta in the case, and that Mr. Black
ouu spoae witoout tne council's au
thority. A resolution was adopted to
cable King Christian, of Denmark,
submissively expressing "the wish of
tbe inhabitants to continue under tbe
Danish crown," and expressing the be
lief tnat annexation to tbe United
btatea would be against tbe wishes of
the majority of tbe inhabitants. Some
of the members protested against the
passage of the resolutions, but tbe vice
chairman overruled them. There waa
a torchlight procession Monday night
styled "The People's Protest." A very
long and orderly crowd, headed by a
band of music, marched through the
town.

Pittsburg, Nov. 5. With a grate
ful enthusiasm past all precedents, the
fifth founder's day of Carnegie insti
tute was celebrated today. In and
around the beautiful building more
than 5,000 people thronged in their de
sire to express to Andrew Carnegie
their appreciation, to the distinguished
guest of the day, Minister Wu Ting
Fang, their homage, and of the treas
ores of art and science and literature
tbelr regard. Minister Wu, tbe
epeaker of tbe day, wag greeted with
prolonged applause. He said in part:
"China has a great deal to learn
from this young republic. I hope,
However, that she will learn, not the
arts of war, which bave for their sola
end and aim the destruction ol life, but
tbe arts of peace which make for the
happiness and welfare of the people.
No nation can become really great by
war. True greatness does not lie in
the extent of territory nor in tbe
strength of battalions, but in the char
aoter of the people From personal
observation I am inclined to the belief
that the American people possess tha
silver duties from 5 per cent to 10 per
cent aa valorem, and third, the eatab
liehment of a minister 6f foreign af
fairs, in place of tbe old and cumber
some system of the Tsung li Yamun
ine demand for tbe retirement of
tbe empress dowager ia said to result
from the conclusion now generally
accepted tnat tbe imperial govern
ment of China waa responsible for tbt
Boxer uprising. As tbe empress dow
sger waa tbe ruling authority of the
Imperial government during tbe upria
Ing, this responsibilty is brought home
directly to her. There ig understood
to be no purpose, however, to visit
apon ber any personal punishment or
indignity, but merely so to foim tbe
reconstructed government as to ex
clude her from all participation In it.
It is deemed advisable for that rea-
fan tbat she abould remain permanent
ly away from Pekm. and tbat ber ad-
users also ghoul 1 be kept away from
tbe seat of government.
ibe plan of doubling China g cus-
omg duties has arisen from the need of
finding a source to pay war indemni
ties, which the various powerg demand.

The test of loftinesg ol character la
to possess boundless power without
abusing it. Wealth is power. Where
can you find such vast accumulations
of wealth in private bands aa in Ameri
ca, with so little attendant evil felt h-
society? I bave seen countries where
the rich oppress tbe poor and the poor
curse the rioh. There money ia the
root of all evil. The reverse seems to
be the case in America. Here tbe rich
use tbe ample means at their disposal
for the benefit of tbe people, and the
people have good reason to bless tbe
rich. In other words, American men
of Wealth are public benefactors. I
have not far to go for an example. In
your midst you have a signal instance
of this class of philanthropic men of
wealth. This institution is an endur
ing monument of tbe founder's munifi
cence. Here one can find tbe most
effective means for the enlightening of
the mind and the uplifting of the soul.
Books, paintings and sculpture and
specimens of objects possessing educa
tional value are accessible at all times
and to all persona. The day will noon
come when foreignerg will visit thia
city, not so much to see tbe great in
dustrial establishments a a to aee tbia
institution, which spreads ita influence
he far and wide. Thia -it- will ha .r..t.
ly famous for the great educator aa for
manufacturing center. May tbia
standing monument of the founder's
benefaction etimulate otbera to follow
this noble example. May tbe 'Found
er's day,' which I heartily join with
yon in celebrating, be ever observed
from year to year as an event of na
tional interest."
