that tho United Sti.tos should become

Thoro never was any understanding
that any other paiMy hhould bo respon

reason the United Staled did not as-
Mime tho debt, or any pirt or it, was
that the. dobt w;is incurred almost
wholly by Spain to crush tho several

solely on the ground that approx

tho islands.
Tho United Stales, therefore, has
assumed no blijjatiotis for, and has no
interest whatever in, tho declarations
of the Spanish cabinet oij tho debts of
Sp.iin or how they shall be paid. The
present declaration looks like a repu

HlCAGO, Sjpt. 21. Tho Record to
morrow will day: According to pre 8
en I indications tho central west this
win tor will ex perlenco a conl famine
tho like of which never before ban
been known in this nclion of the
country. Prosperity, it is baid, wil.
bo the primary cause uf tho famine.
Ord in;i t ily a t this boasfjti of tho year
the railro.nl companies, especially
those who.-o lilies connect tho east
nnd the central west, derive their
greatobt bei 111 from the transporta
tion of coal from the eastern fields of
this section, but under tho present
conditions they lire unable to provide
cars for the hauling of the fuel owing
lo the unprecedented handling of
fit.ri'W and more profitable commodi
ties. U rider crd i nary conditions tho lake
carriers are engaged in carrying coal
ftom tin; east to the we-tand stocking
tho great bunkers for the winter sup
ply, but in tho summer, which ends
ti 'lay, they have had more than they
could do lo haul othor things, which
contributed more generally to the ex
chequers of tho various companies.
Coal mine owners in the east havo
spent a noticeable portion of tho hist
mix month in trying to secure accom
modations for their shipment-3, but
tho railroad companies, even in evi
dence of tho fact that they havo oper
ated with greatly increased equip
ment, have been unable to obligo coal
men. Il'ilroad tariffs on tho fuel
have b'en ;;dvaiiccd and there are
strong reasons to believe that before
very long iliey will bo sent up still
higher.
At present, when ur utr ordinary cir
cumstances, tho winter supply of coal
would bo in tho market bins there is
comparatively little to bo had on
hort notice. The inability of tho
coal minors to get their wares on the
market und tho general advance in
freiht rates will servo lo make tho
fuel much dearer this winter than
over before, recording to tho coal
yard operator.

PRISON J300KS OPEN.
Captain Alfred Dreyfus at Last
Steps Forli) Into the World
a Free Man.
Goes With hjis Brother to Nantes
and (Addresses a Statement
o the Public.
ItKXXKS, France, Sept. 20. Captain
Alfred Dreyfus at 3 o'clock this morn
ing left the prison here in which he
had been confined since his return
from Devil's island and proceeded
to Vern, where he took a train bound
for 'Nnntes. Ilia departure was com
pletely unnoticed.
M. Viguire, the chief of the secret
service, and the prefect, M. Doreault,
arrived at tho prison after miduight,
bringing the minister of war's order
for tho transfer of Dreyfus. Tho lut
tor walked from tho prison to tho
Boulevard Lacnno, where he entered
a wailing carriage and was driven to
the Vern stition, outsido tho town
Mutliiou Dreyfus met him at tho train
and accompanied him to rs antes.
While thir. dramatic turn in the
Dreyfus drama wa9 taking plucn all
Uonnes sle.pt and tho departure of tho
famous prisoner of Devil's island was
no more noticed than that of an ordi
nary traveler.
The carriage which was in waiting
was tho same vehicle which took
Drey fus to his prison when he re
turned from Devil's island. Dreyfus
got in opposite the house where Maitro
Libori had stayed previous to tho at
tempt on his life and alighted about
50 yards from the station and walked
in. regardless of the drizzling rain.
The Nantes train camo in just as he
anivai. Alfred and Matthieu Drey
fus quickly took their seats, and tho
train went out of llenncs bearing
Dreyfus away a free man.
A small crowd of people had waited
around the prison until midnight, but
it then dispersed, thinking it was too
late for Dreyfus to leave.
Vme. Dreyfus left Rennes at noon,
accompanied by her father and friends
Dreyfus Arrives At Xanten.
ANTES, Sept. 20. Dreyfus arrived
here this morning from Rennes, accom
panied by his brother, the chief of the
secret police, M. Viguire, and one po
liceman. The party traveled as ordinary-
passengers. The train reached
the station at 8:15.
Tho Dreyfus brothers alighted on
the platform first, followed by M. Vig
uire, who inquired if they could have
a private room. A waiter replying in
tho affirmative the brothers entered a
room and ordered two glasses of milk,
wbilo M. Viguire and the policeman
remained outsido in the public bar.
lrquiry was then made concerning
the Bordeaux train, which they wore
informed left at 8:f3 a. m. All four
then entered a first-ciass compartment
in which there were already other
passengers. It was intended by thus
refraining from any attempt to secure
privacy to avoid exciting curiosity.
M. Viguiro and the policeman only
went as far as the first stop, Vertou,
whence they returned to Niotes to
catch the 12:30 p. m. expross for Paris,
leaving the brothers to continue their
journev alono. It. is believed the
Dreyfuses alighted at an intermediate
station to take a fresh start in an un
known direction.
May Come to America.
London, Sept. 20. The Times pub
lishes the following dispatch from
Liver pool:
"A quantity of luggage has arrived
here from Havre and Folkestone ad
dressed to Mme. Dreyfus, and rooms
have elso been taken at a local hotel.
The luggage is marked for New York,
und it is supposed that Dreyfus is go
ing to America.
The Paris correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph says: "Dreyfus is so
ill that be can live ODly a few months.
Tho government has promised to
watch over and protect him, and has
recommended that he live on the
Riviera. It is not unlikely that he
will iiecept the villa offered him dur
ing tho trial by the princ of Monte
Carlo." "

BANK TRAGEDY IN ILLINOIS.
Affd Charier of FulUtlne Hank At
tacked and Nearly Killed.
CHICAOO, Sept. 20. Frederick J.
Filbert, the aged cashier of the Palla
tine bank in Failatino, 111., tweuty-sJx
miles north of Cnicago, is lying close
to oea.th as the result of an attack
made on him today by a young man
who gives the numo of Waltor Law ton.
The latter, who is unknown to any
body in I'allatine, is in the county
hospital suiToring from a bullet wound.
Henry Plagge, seventy years of age,
a firmer, whose intervention at a
critical moment prevented tho out
right murder of the cashier, is at his
home west of the village bruised and
disabled as a result of his struggle
with Lawion.
Tho assault was mudo with a tack
hammer and the aged cashier was
struck at lenst a dozen times before
Flagg interfered. Tho attack oc
curred at 3 p. m.
L vwtou denies that ho had entered
tho bank for tho purpose of robbery
and claimed that the alienation of his
wife's affections by Filbert loolc place
five years ago at the Fifth Avcnuo
hotel in New York City. Filbert do- ,
clares he has not been in New York
for twenty years.
Late tonight it was announced that
both Filbert and Lawton will die.
The former's skuil ia fractured in two
places and tho latter cannot survive
the wound in his abdomen.
Lawton's confessed motive for tho
assault was revenge on Filbert, who,
he alleges, alienated the affections of
his wife. His story is not believed by
the police, however. They have no
doubt the looting of tho bank was his
ultimate design.
Colony of J.ip tor Hawaii.
ViCTOKix, B. C.,Sept. i0. Not con
tent with tho importation through
Minister Ramon of a small army of
field workers, tho planters of Hawaii
are now arranging for a wholesale im
portation of contract liibor from Japan.
When tho empress of India sailed
from Yokohoma on the 7th inst. their
agents had secured 0,310 laborers, and
these, with the women who are to ac
company them to the islands, means a
total emigration from Japan of up
wards of 10,500.
The large demand for cheap labor
results from the recent heavy invest
ments of American capital in Hawaii,
but the present immigration is viewed
with alarm in .I ipau, the government
promising stringent restrictions for
the next session of the Diet.
FOR "SIR WALTER.
The Value of Scott's Novel as Heading
for tlie Young1.
Above all, writes B. M., in the St.
Nicholas, Sir Walter Scott was the
champion of youth, and it is the fra
grance of the springtime that breathes
through his stories. In his day writing
for young people had not become a pro
fession, otherwise there is no knowing
what he might have done for us; still,
he has done enough; and oddly, too, his
heroes and heroines are almost without
exception very young no older, indeed,
than many school-girls and boys, and
certainly not so well educated, though,
poor things, the stress of the times
made them sadly wiser in the ways of
the world. It is only necessary to cite
a few examples. Naturally, "Ivanhoe"
is the first suggestion. Rowena was 15
when the story opens, Rebecca was lit
tle older, and Ivanhoe himself was not
of age. Quentin Durward was 19, and
Isabelle of Croye, his sweetheart, waa
scarcely 15, while her Aunt Hameline
was thought quite elderly at 30. Cath
erine, "The Fair Maid of Perth," wa3
not more than 17. Edith Plantagenet.
the heroine of "The Talisman'" was
about the same age: Mary Avenel, in
"The Monastery." was somewhere be
tween 13 and 15, while the two broth
ers, Halbert and Edward, were about
17 and 15 respectively. Catherine Sey
ton, in "The Abbott," was not above
16, and Roland, the page, was scarcely
older. Di Vernon romped with the
dogs and the horses. Annie of Geier-s-tein
was a child, and Arthur Stanley
merely a precocious boy; and so all
through his stories, except in a few
rare instances, when the tales treated
of a later epoch, when maturity was
not forced upon children. The same
may be said of the characters in his
poems, and here It is more especially
apparent among his heroines; his men
are more thoughtful, and certainly
older In most Instances. The spirit of
youth runs through everything Scott
touched, and is the secret alike of the
unwavering interest in his works, and
of the love and veneration for the man.
Kite and Tlinnderstormv
Mr, William A. Eddy, of Bayonne,
New Jersey, finds that he can predict
the approach of thunderstorms when
they are yet so distant that their at
tendant clouds have not come into
view by means of high-flying kites.
TLo kites inform him of tht electrical
condition of the atmosphere, which
assume a recognizable character in ad
vance of such storms. Thunderstorms
have the peculiarity of advancing in
lines hundreds oX miles in length, the
Btorms composing such an array, keep
ing, in a general way, abreast of one
another, like skirmishers leading a
line of battle.
A Loctor'a Prescription.
Abernethy, the celebrated surgeon,
was no respecter of persons, and for
plain speaking was a terror to many
a purse-proud man. A lazy, wealthy
Individual asked him in fear and trem
bling what was the cure for gout, a
disease caused by his luxurious mod
of living. "Live on sixpence a day,"
was the doctor's reply, "and earn it!"

Lottery Scheme for Spuin.
Under the auspices of the Spanish
government a great lottery scheme will
be launched in Madrid August 1, the
receipts of which, minus the prizes,
will be turned over to the government
for its most pref-slnn needs. It Is
thought that by September the sala
ries of civil and m'.'ltary servants re
cently suspended c?n then be made
good. Circulars are being sent out
all over Europe, and it is expected
that 500,000,000 peseta, or about $100.
000,000, will be netted by the govern
ment. There are five capital prizes
of 500,000 pesetas each. The lottery
is now new In Spain, but Spanish lot
tery has never been popular in other
states of Europe, investors preferring
to take their chances with the Dutch
or Prussian lotteries. The Spanish
lottery Id 3897 brought the treasury
3,000,000 pesetas, in the same year the
Portuguese lottery gained 1,750,000
milreLs (nearly $2,000,000). The lot
tery is authorized in other countries
of Europe. In Italy last year the
government gained 62,000,000 lire ($12,
400,000), showing that the poor lazza
rone was not without his savings. In
Holland the official lotteries gained
$300,000; in Denmark the winnings
amounted to about half a million
more. But the Prussian lottery, which
is annually operated under the direct
authority of the state, Is the most pop
ular. There are a number of prizes
of 500,000 marks every year, and in
1897 tho receipts of the treasurer
amounted to over 100,000,000 marks.
