Cable Special to Tun HKE. | There ia un
Impression among English holders of con
federate bonds that those bonds will bo
paid , at least In part. That such au Impres
sion prevails may scorn to Americans oven
more ridiculous than it did twonty-llvo years
ago. English holders of confederate bonds
do not consider it ridiculous. They don't '
nttnmpt to proclaim from the house tops
their confidence in the eventual payment or
part payment of the bonds , but this confl-
den'co they possess in n degree astonishing
to Americans who have studied English
business methods and EnglUh business
men. The north laughed when it thought of
the CMifoderato bonds and how Englishmen
had been deluded Into buying them on
the strength of their sympathy
with thu south , and their conlldcnco In the
south' * nullity to win in its oflort to disrupt
the union. Many times since the war has
the north laughed over these bonds nnd
ft ) their English owners. Of Into years ) , innybe ,
tbc > south lias laughed , not loudly but
oiijoyedly , ever tlieso sumo bonds. During
all thoio years English holders of confed
erate Vondii have quietly berne the jibes and
sneers at their short-sightedness In backing
the wrong sldo in the rebclliou. They road
of Ainoricans lighting their pipes or making
bonfires with confederate bonds. They did
no' fol'ow ' the oxnmplo , but sent agents to
America to buv up all the confederate bonds
they could find at the lowest possible price ,
Which was next to not : . ing. Tno north and
the south Uuphod after the manner of the
two sections over this transaction. Much
was said in pi'ivato and publio
flf ttio Ignornnco among the Eng
lish of American institutions and
of thi-ir-nttor idiocy in supposing that con
federate bonds were valuable except as
waste paper. The ICiu-llslunon said nothing
after a burst of indignation following the
general and Individual repudiation of the
southern obllg.itioii , but they stuck to the
bonds with tlio bulldog tenacity for which
the world in general does not give them tqo
much credit. Twenty-live or thirty years
might bo too long for nn American to wait
< jor the possible percentage of adebt that the
rest of the world considered worth
less. Not so with English
uieir Many of the original holders
nf cotuedcrato bonds are dead. All of thosn
left heirs. The latter still have the bo 'ids ,
nnd are Just as conlldont of getting some-
thlug worth having for thorn
us theh predecessors wto. . They
are more confident , for the Americans are
playing into their hands. Englishmen nro
not more willing to invent capital in Ameri
can enterprise than Americans uro to bor
row Eng'i-ih money. Every steamer brings
to London Ainoiicans who have schemes
that only lack money behind , them to imilco
nil connected wltn thoui rich. Seldom has a
tilnglo season seen so many American pro
motcrs'hero us the nresent ono. Many of
these are from the south. People on this
side of tha Atlantic have heard much anout
the now south. They bVJlevo m Its natural
resources. They know money is needed to
develop them. They know that the south
is overrun with northerners , many of whom
hnvo put nil their money Into
southern enterprises aud want more
money to get bauk their own
and more too. Tlio now south's appetite for
development has only been whetted. The
southern states want money : southern cities
want raonoy ; southern corporations and
northern corporations m the south want
money. They are holding out their hands to
Englishmen for it. The answer of the Enc
lisutuon to the request is : "Pay 1 per cep
on the confederate bonds which you have le
pudiatcd and which wo hold , nnd we will
lend you tu money you want. " They nave
no nation of accepting 1 per cent as payment
In full , Th'nt would not bo English. Ono
per cent on confederate bauds for any loan
of inngnitudo is the English programme ,
t und whether yiis U paid by northern
ftibu or s&utheu mbn is of no
consequence to the English holders of con
federate bonds , but that it will bo paid no.
once but many times EnglU'.i holders who
have money to loan are certain ,
An agent of the syndicate of confederate
bondholders stopped on American shor.-s a
few days ago. lie Is n member of n linn
who have been for many years the principal
dealers In the American slock nurkot , aud
few axtonslvo schemes from the-othor side
have boon floated hero before they have
been submitted to this particular llrnu Tim
syndicate represented by this man has tremendous -
mendous power in EnglUh financial circles.
It holds n vast amount of the bands , most of
which were bought for a song. Tin
ruling price , of th& bonds to-day I
thrve-quurtors of ono per cout. The agent
is us high-priced as ho ls > slnuu'd
and the few who nro aware of tha object o
his American trip uro nuro'that it would not
bo made except upon the host grounds. Ho
will tell the Georgians aud Alubauiuns tha
their credit In England is worthless and wil
remain n until they show u disposition to
wipe out 'their old obligations. If they adopt
his plan they can gut all the money thej
want. Tlio syndicate proposes to put the
percentage thus received on the entire deb

few years to got the I'ocu vuluo of the bonds

was ono of the promenadors on Kottcn Uow
; hls nftcrnoon , His military oloak and flow-
ng locks attracted n flattering amount of at
tention considering the placo. Ho wns abso
lutely glad to moot the Herald correspond
ent , and looked so as well as said so. Ho
was willing to talk also.
"I am moro glad than I can toll you , " ho
said , "ot have this opportunity of setting
Mrs. Potter nnd myself right with the
English and American publio In a matter re
garding which wo both have been greatly
misrepresented. Certain journals In America
liavo spread a rumor tj the effect that our
tour has been abandoned , not , us alleged , be
came of Mrs. Potter's serious Illness , but
merely from caprice , and that I , not wishing
to stay In America , had persuaded her to
leave the country also und intend taking the
London theater for her and myself. Lot me
answer that charge before , proceeding fdr-
thur. In the llrst place , anybody who knows
Mrs. Potter at all must know that she Is as
little capricious as any woman in the world ,
and must know , too , thatshois not'to bo per
suaded by any living creature to relinquish
such chances of artistic success and mone
tary pro lit as an American tour has oflored
her. On our last tour together , which
lasted about thirty weeks , wo played
to an average of i'l.-JO pounds per week.
Anybody who know * anything about the
theatrical business in America and England
knows that America Is an actor's Tom Tid
dlers ground and that no such money can ba
made hero as can bo picked up on thu otliar
side by n successful star. Mrs , Potter is not
the woman nor am I the man to throw away
thousands o [ pou.uU for a whim. 1'uon , as
to my not wanting to return to Auiurloa ,
why shouldn't II My standing both with the
press and publio Is perfectly good. I have
many personal friends thereI like the
American people. I make bigger money in
America than in England. What possible
reason ctn o-cist lor my not. daiirlng to re
turn or for persuading Mrs. Potter not to
return I 1 have played in America for four
years and nothing would give uio greater
pleasure than to play there for another four.
1 confess that the appearance of these
rumors in American papers hai greatly
grieved me. If ever a woman deserved
pialso and taatiits , Instead of bin-no and
culumny , It is Mrs. Pottor. During the final
weeits of our last tour her conduct was
heroic. Why , do you know that our. * was
almost the only company which did no * , comu
olt the road in consequence of illness among
the stars. Hooth and Harrett , Mary Ander
son , Clara Morris , Mrs. Langtry , Keeuo ,
Miss Marlowe , In fact Hourly all tha com
panies dried up before their tours
wcro ( hushed on account of illness.
Wi'll , if any among thorn suffered as MM.
Potter suffered they are to bo pitied. . The
doctors urged her not to play. They threat
ened her with a total collapse ; warned her
that it might bo fatal ; that the excitement ,
physical exertion nnd fatigue of
those intormlnnblo American rail
way ionrnoys might oven kill her if
she continued. Nothing would stob hor.
Her vitality is sb enormous and her love of
her work bo great that it is almost impossi
ble to keep her from playing. If tlKuo people
ple who talk about her caprice could have
seen her as I have , almost light
ing with actual physical agony be
tween acts , they could not have
the heart to speak so. Mrs. Potter
acted in both senses like a heroine. It was
hoped t at u spell of rest after the tour
might restore her. It has certainly done her
seine good nnd wo were lookmsr forward to
starting our next tour at Toronto on the 21st
of this month. The tour has been booked up
for thirty-two weeks. She still requires
constant attention , and when she came to
E iropa on Juno S Dr. Hunter , her modloal
attendant , insisted on her being attended by
a trained nurso. Wo came hero together
with her father on the Gaseogne. Throe
Weeks lutor Dr. Hunter's assistant , Dr. Mc-
Guinness , followed her to Europe anJ re
mained ic constant attendance on her for
seven weeks. He left her bettor , but 1m -
mediately after his dep.trtttro she had a terrible -
riblo relapse and Colonel Urquhnrt , Dr.
McGulnness nnd myself consulted together
and determined to telegraph to America to
stop the tour. I shall never forget the effect
of that resolution on Mrs. Potter. To nu-
aglno It you must know , as her friends know ,
her intense love of tha stage. It amounts tea
a positive passion. I have seen a good deal
of trouble In my time. Most men have had
to break bad news to psoplo moro than once ,
but rather than go through such a soono as
that again well , I think I'd rather no shot.
It seems to mo that there Is bad faith somewhere -
where in this master. Our manager , Mr.
Shroeder , ijnmo over to Franco and was as
well uwaro of Mrs. Pottar's condition us my
self. So far us I know , ho has
made no effort to contradict those
rumors , or. if lie has , his representations
have been suppressed by the press. The
Herald will do a good work in putting the
plain facts befo.'o the public. It is hard for
me und for the poor lady's other friends to
htuml by ard see .so much courage and so
much suflfcrlng HO cruelly spoken of. You
may guess Mrs , Potter's actual condition at
this moment when I toll you that on October
2 a consultation was hold by her dontors In
Paris as to the possibility of her coming to
London to consult Drs , Hancock and Qunm.
If she LVII not come they will go to her. Her
present position is that she is positively for
bidden to play befoio next January.

from the utitly Inc ; couiuics It bocotncs ap
parent that prohibition bus won in North
Dakota.
Tim people nro all surprised , find tlinso
living In towns and cities nro dumbfounded.
It was expected by tlio antl's and conceded
by ttio prohibitionists that prohibition would
bo defeated , and tlmt tbo state lias been cap
Lured by the drys , tlio latest reports lenvo
little room tor doubt. Tlio liquor uiuu In tbo
state are completely uudono. They were
conlldeut of a rousing majority and laughed
at all warnings of the fanatics and ex
tremists.
So sure were they ot victory that they
permitted the cntniulgu fund that bad been
raised by the liquor dealers nf the cast to bo
transferred to South Dako'a , where the
prohibition strength was known to bo almost
irresistible.
The amount of money thus transferred
was over tiO.OOO , and now the northern
dealers nro in tnournlnir ,
The money did no good in South Dakota ,
for the prohibition majority wits too large to
overcome , but if used In jfarth Dakota i
would havu suvod them.
As It Is , thuy fool that the election has
gona by default , and that the state has con
stitutional prohibition. A change can bo
ofTcctcd only by au amendment tn the consti
tution. To do this it requires a majority
vote of two buucessivo legislatures before
the pronosed amendment can bo sub
mitted to the people a majority vote
at the polls being required. Telegrams are
pouring in from all purls of the blute , from
llqiior men and other citizens appealing for
some news that will give them hope. Liut
theieis nothing to encourage them. The
figures now at hand show beyond doubt that
tlio piohiuitlonlsts luivo oarru-il the state and
that their majority will bo about two thous
and.
and.Another
Another surprise is the small republican
majority. John Miller , the republican can-
dulato for governor , bas only about live
thousand majority and this , too , af
ter a vigorous republican campaign
and apathy and indifference on the
part of I ho democrats. A change of 3,500
votes would have elected W. N. Uouen ( dom. )
and local democrats are scoring the national
committee for refusing to make a light la the
new state. Tlio dcuiociats elected three dis
trict judges , as many as wcro elected by the
republicans , and will have at least twenty-
live members of the legislature.

WASIIINOTOV , D. C. , Oct. \
Land Commissioner Crolt rondoroJ n de
cision to-day which will put him in favor
with all honest settlers upon the public
domain. ,
Ho has Inaugurated a policy which the
people of the country have long demanded ,
that of giving the settlers the bonollf of
doubt nnd time whenever it is shown that ho
Is clearly honest and not at fault. In re
versing the decision of the local land ofllcers
nt Benson , Minn , , holding far cancellation
the homestead entry of Fred Huascllu , on
the ground that ho had abandoned the claim
beeausa ho had not "proved w > ' ' within six
*
months from date of entry , Commissioner
GrolT lays down the principle that the Inten
tion of tlio settler , his iinnnolnl condition
nnd the surrounding circumstances should
Co taken into consideration along
with the strict letter of the law.
Ho believes that where the intent
pf the settler is honorable and ills poverty or
misfortune makes it Impossible for him to
"prove and pay up" within six months the
government should not permit others more
fortunate but not more honest to deprive the
original settler of his homo till ho has bud a
chance to establish his good faith with the
government. The idea of the government is
to give a homestead to all honest settlers ,
and although n limit , of tlmo is lixod within
which a settler must meet certain require
ments , the six months rule for homesteaders ,
llko nil rules , has exceptions. Commis
sioner Groff , in his decision , says :
"Tho claimant was n single man having no
property but a yoke of oxen , nnd hud to de
pend upon his own labor for the means to
purchase lumber for building his hoiibo. Ho
could not got money sufficient for that purpose -
pose in time to complete it within six months
from date of entry , but ho llnlslied it as soon
as he could and was on his claim in amide
time to put in u crop during
the first season in which a crop could bo cul
tivated after ho took it. I sea no bad fuith
hero and no c.utso Is shown for tha cancella
tion of the entry , Tlio rule requiring the
maker of a homestead entry to establish an
actual residence upon the land within six
months Irom the data of his entry , llko all
rules , has its exceptions and is not to bo in-
Histod upon where the cntryman's ' good faith
toward the government is suillciontly shown
or whore his acts are not inconsistent with
an honest purpose to comply with the law. "
TUB SUl'HKMK IIUNOII VAOVNCl" .
Michigan is makimra vigorous ollort to se
cure the vacancy on the bench of the supreme
premo court of the Uuitod States made by
the death of Justice Matthews. Several of
her most influential citizens have come nero
ami in person pros'ented Indorsements of her
nsnlr.ints or have employed the telegraph
ami mulls to advance the work of the state
in tlmt direction. Senator McMillan , suc
cessor to Senator Palmer , called nttho whlto
house to-dny to talk overtho subject with the
president , The senator is urging the ap
pointment of Alfred Kussell , of Detroit , an
eminent lawyer , and ho Is hcartilj seconded
uy his colleague. Senator Stockbridge , and
other statesmen from tho'state.
Michigan has another candidate for this
place in'Judgo Urown , but the bulk of the
influence Is In favor of Uussoll. The Sev
enth judicial circuit is inclined to insist on
this place , on the ground that sluco the death
of Chief Justice Wuita and Justice Stanley
.Matthews , the circuit , which is one ; of the.
most important , is without representation.
Ohio has not presented a candidate so far as
known , although nlio has until recently had
two men on the bench of the supreme court.
A MISirrilBIIBNBIOX.
An impression is maintained by most pen
sion claimants throughout the country rela
tive to making cases special at tin * pension
olllco which operates a great injustice.
Tnero is a belief that It is only necessary
for n senator , a congressman or other influ
ential person to make a demand at the pen
sion oftleo and n case is taken out of its reg
ular order and pushed through to completion.
This is a gross orror. There have not been
SOU cases made special since the 4th of last
March , although it was charged against
Commissioner Tanner that ho was making
cases special by tlio wholesale , and had
taken thousands of them out of their regular
order aud pushed them through. Ho was
charged unjustly. During the early part of the
administration of Commissioner Biuck a cir
cular was Issued from the pension olllco in
which It was stated that :
"It is apparent that the expedition of ono
claim must bo at the cost of delay to thous
ands of others , aiid'thorcforo the discretion
which Is lodged in the commissioner must be
exrecised with reason and judgment , and ho
has published , as a prerequisite to the favor-
uul'j consideration of an application for spe
cial action.tliatjsnid apilicationmiibt | ; set forth
snch circumstances as will justify the action
of the commissioner In the minds of those
whoso claims will bo put back , as extreme
ago or threatened dissolution of the claimant
or the dependence of the claimant on charity ,
or ether special and urgent reasons which
may bo particular to the case and which must
bo submitted to the discretion of the
commissioner for his approval or disap
proval , Tno statements' must bo vcriliod bv
the outh of the claimant milking them or
some ropulublo party actir.g for him. "
There were muny thousands of demands
soon after the incoming of the present ad
ministration , for special and irregular action
on pension claims , and it became necessary
oven buforo Commissioner Black retired
from tht ofllco , to rigidly on force the above
order , nnd it is enforced ut this time. It is
positively asserted in every instance that a
case ran not and will not bo made special
and taken out of Its regular course without
it is shown that the claimant is either
physically In a precarious condition or is
being supported by publio or private charity.
All ether applications for pension claims to
bu made special uro rejected , upa no amount
of influence can change the rnlo.
It can readily bo seen that whenever the
claim of ono pensioner is made special the
work for another claimant must bo dropped
In order that the special case can ba given
attention , and thus a great wrong is wrought'
upon ono claimant by favoring another un
less there are unusual reasons for making
the cuno special.
The only thing that pensioners can do to
expedlto their claims is to complete the testi
mony in their cases as rapidly us possible
when they are notilied by the pension oflico
of what is needed In the way of evidence. .

The Corona was on her llrat trip of tha
season and hud but recently como out of dry
dock , where she had received repairs
amounting to nearly ? 1'J,00 ; . She was built
at Wheeling , W. Va. , by Sweeny Urns. , of
that city , about seven years ago , and had 8
currying capacity of about twenty-seven
thousand bales of cotton. At tholimo of the
accident shu was valued at $20,000.
Mrs. Kobe rtson suys when tlio Corona nr-
rlved opposite False river landing , about blx-
teen miles below tliu liuyon Sar.i , ono of her
boilers exploded , tearing the boat to pieces ,
and she same in Unep water In a few soi-omls.
Mrs , Hobuitsonus wedged In tlio ladles
cabin with .some of the debris luylni : across
her lower limbs , but .she was suddenly
released and found herself floating in tha
river. She sunk twice , but lucicily was
picked up , aid escaped with only a few pain
ful bruises on her limbs.
L. C. Rollings , tlu ) pilot , says ho wasnsloop
nt the lime of the explosion , aud does not
know how It occurred.
Hon. L. F. Mason , seciotary of Htnto , who
was a passongur on the Corona , slates ihub
ho escaped with life preservers and assisted
in saving Mrs. Robertson and another lady !
There was very littla tlmo for preparation
for escape , as the boat went doivn llko lead
a few seconds after the explosion occurred.
No ono seems to bo ublo to give any explana
tion as to the calico of the sudden disaster. '
Captain T. C. Sweeney , of the Powers
line , who assumed command on the dentil of
Cuptnin Itlnnks , says the explosion was not
duo to a too high pressure of steam. He had
just had occasion to examine tlio t'Uugo , and
Is positive there was not inoro than 1U5
pounds pressure. The bout had a moderate
cargo. Ho was in tlio inldd'a ' or the
stream just below the landing
nnd had just whistled to pass the City of St.
Louis , for'unatoly coining down at the time.
Tha explosion had n downward tendency
and blow out the bottom of the boat , causing
her to sink immediately. The cabin was
torn In two , the roar portion floating down
stream and bearing a number of the saved.
Captain Sweeney suys tbo boat would un
doubtedly have burned had shonotgono
