COLOMBIA STILL BELLIGERENT.
Agent In Pari* Say* Republic Will In-

Darts. April 4 Judge Holguin,
financial agent of Colombia, who was
one of the parlies Instituting the re-
cent suit against the Panama Canal,
company, says In the course of an In-
terview today:
"We Intend to appeal ami If that
falls we will apply to the court of cas-
sation. Finally If all the French
courts refuse us justice, Colombia will
publish a manifesto to the world ex
plaining that she Is a victim of odious
spoliation which compels her to re-
sort to arms. The American squad-
ron at Colon nnd Panama now prevent
Colombia from debarking the troops
concentrated at Barrampillls. Imt
sooner or later these squadrons will
he withdrawn and then the Colombian
forces will Invade the rebel republic
of Panama and make war.’’

Owing to the easy access to all resi-
dents of the state honored by the navy
department when the Virginia was
named there will be the largest at-
tendance ever aeon at a launching
here. In the forenoon there will he a
large parade of slate militia, sailors
and various patriotic societies.
The ship will he christened by Miss
.Matilda tiny Montague, daughter of
Governor Montague of Virginia. Miss
Montague, who Is only twelve years
old. will be accompanied from Rich-
mond by u large and distinguished
party, Including state officials, the
governor's staff and numerous Influ-
ential business and professional men.
Nearly all of the Virginia representa-
tives In congress will he on hand and
also large parties of citizens from
Portsmouth. Norfolk, Petersburg and
other points.
With the first movement of the
huge hull Miss Montague will lightly
poise the gayly berlbbonod Cham-
pagne bottle In her dainty hand, and
:is the vessel sweeps down to meet
Hi" tiHi she will dash the glass recep-
*iii'li' against the unyielding wall of
si eel, and as the wine flows down to-
ward the ways In foaming rivulets,
ill" fair sponaer will say: "1 christen
thee Virginia."
Pandemonium will then break loose
in the crowd below as well as upon
the christening stand. Greeted with
a welcoming blast from the shrill
throats, of a score or more of steam
whistles, the battleship will float ma-
jesllcally out upon the bosom fit' the
James, where she will be brought to
in midstream.
Occupying a place of honor u|kiii
the bow will stand W. P. Kline, the
only survivor of the five men who

mac) of the Confederate navy, when

The battleship Virginia embodies
the highest ingenuity and mature ex
perleuee of American naval experts.
The general dimensions of the ship
are: Length on load waterline, 435
leet; breadth (extreme) Ht load water-
line 79 feet 2 1-2 inches; trial dis-
placement, about 15.000 tons; mean
draught at trial displacement, about
28. feet. 9 Inches; greatest draught, full
load, 29 feet.
In the 15,000 or more tons repre-
sented In the Virginia, the many an-
tagonistic qualities essential to a per-
fect fighting machine have been com-
promised and Incorporated In the pro-
portion which experience seems to
have pointed out as the most desirable
arid efficient. To begin with, the ship
will have a speed of at least eighteen
knots, which compares most favora-
bly with any battleships under con-
struction abroad, as well as any In the
projected stage.
The Virginia Will be propelled at
this high speed by twin screws driven
I by two four cylinder triple expansion
j engines, running, tinder condition* of
j maximum speed, at about 120 revoln-
1 lions a minute.
The battleship Will carry four 12-

on foot and nourished, his Idea being,
at the proper time, to declare that he
has no intention of trying to capture
the nomination .and then to publish
In all his papers a story disclosing
the extent to which his agents have
been successful In "Influencing” sen-
timent in his lavor.

The story may appear to be some-
what visionary when the amount of
money Mr. Hearst is said to be spend-

for It point out that Mr. Hearst Is a
very wealthy man .and that his meth-

NOW A CAMEL TRUST
WAS CHIEF OBSTACLE TO SKIN-
NER'S EXPEDITION.
Head of Combine Is a Nephew of King
Menelik and Governor of Harar, and
Expedition Had to Pay Tribute to
Travel.
Washington, April 4.—Camel trusts
and the agents of European govern-
ments were the principal difficulties
against which the diplomatic mission,
headed by Robert P, Skinner, had to
contend with King Menelik of Abys-
sinia. The report of Lieutenant C. L.
Hues sty, U. S. N., who commanded
the naval escort, has been received
here. He says: “About six miles
out from Harar the advance was met
by a messenger from Ras Makonan,
nephew of Menelik and governor of
Harar. Inquiring If It was private or
national mission. The commissioner
had been warned at Dire Daoua that
some of the foreign representatives
were trying to make It appear that
the mission was a private undertak-
ing In order to defeat Its object."
Returning to Harar, the expedition
encountered a camel trust, which
caused a delay. Lieutenant Hussey
says: "While our Itinerary for the
trip, requiring fast traveling by a
route which the camel men claimed
was undesirable, was stated as the
cause for not wishing to enter Our
service the real reason seemed to be
a concerted plan to obtain a large ad-
vance over the current price of trans-
portation at which the agent had
agreed to furnish the caravan.”
This camel trust caused consider-
able delay. At Ell&bclla, one of the
camping places, the "King of the
nanahlTw '> r.
Danaktls,” a rough-looking youth of
seventeen, with a considerable num-
ber of men with lances, shields and
knives, demanded 100 thalers ($47.29)
from tho commission for passage
through his country, and he declared
that unless it was paid he would not
let the camels be loaded. The king
was promptly told to get out of the
camp, but finally Commissioner Skltf-
ner gave him 20 thalers for the sake
of good feeling.

KAISER WILL LOSE VOICE
“WILLIAM THE SUDDEN” WILL
SOON BE ALSO “THE SILENT.”
Cancerous Growth In Throat of Ger-
man Emperor May Soon Deprive
That Country of a Ruler and the
Hcherzcllcrn Family of a Throne.
Dcnveh April 4,—A special to the
News from a Berlin correspondent
rays: Despite all official denials and
statements that the kaiser is In the
beat of health, I hoar frapi an Ameri-
can who saw him twice at Naples,
that he looks thin, pale and aged,
that his voice had a curious, muffled
sound, and that In speaking lie In-
cessantly raises his hand to his
throat. It is also stated here, on high
authority, that only the removal of
the vocal chords of Kaiser Wilhelm
can save his life, and this may be but
a mere temporary alleviation of the
frightful disease from which the
kaiser Is said to be suffering.
The treatment of the kaiser’s throat
with radium has. It is said, produced
no perceptible results, and there has
been no encouragement to continue it.
The malignant growth In the throat
of the German emperor Is reported to
be cf the same cancerous character
that caused his father’s death, and
there is little hope now In stopping
the slow but deadly progress of the
disease.
The kaiser has opposed, with the
temper of his extreme irritation, tho
statement of Dr. Ilergmann that the
extirpation of the vocal chords Is
necessary In order to prevent for a'
time at least the development of tho
disease.
Dr. Bergmann has expressed great
dissatisfaction that his advice has not
been taken, and has stated that every

Judge Parker’s Intimate friends
seout the Idea that he would be under
Hill's domination. They say the sug-
gestion Is absurd to anyone who
knows the quiet depth and strength of.
the Judge’s character. One of them
remarked that It used to be said Pres-
ident McKinley was ruled by the I
strong will of Mark Hnna, but people
who knew the actual facts were well
aware that there was no truth In the
suggestion. Hanna had great influ-!
once with McKinley, hut so had other j
men, and in the last analysis McKIn-1
ley was his own master.
day's delay only increases the serious-
ness of the kaiser’s case, and will
make Imperative an operation within
a short time that may ,be rendered in-
effective by being performed too late.
That the polypus growing on the
vocal chords will shortly Increase to
an extent that will deprive the em-
peror of speech Is now certain, and
the result, he fears, from the opera-
tion will be produced by nature
through the development of the
disease. It Is said to be now certain
that the kaiser, within a very short
time, will be speechless, whether or
not he submits to the operation sug-
gested by Dr. Bergmann.
It Is significant that, not a single
official declaration that the kaiser Is
not suffering from cancer has been
made.
0 The reason for suppressing the
facts with regard to the kaiser’s afflic-
tion are clear enough to anyone fa-
miliar with the fact that no descend-
ant of the kaiser could ascend the
throne should It be known that Ills
father suffered from an Incurable
disease.
The father of Kaiser Wilhelm died
of cancer, but this ,was never officially
announced.
In the case of the father of Wilhelm,
the Emperor Frederick, no official ad-
mission that he was suffering from
cancer was ever made. Sir Morrell
Mackenzie in that case successfully
hoodwinked the greatest German
pathologist, Professor Virchow,
Dr. Bergman Douglas, one of the
leading specialists in diseases of the
throat, who studied In Berlin under
Professor Virchow, stated a short time
ago. that unless the radium treatment
resulted successfully the only remedy
In science to prevent the spread of
the disease in the present kaiser's
case is the operation of laryngectomy,
or tha removal of the larynx.
This view is precisely that of Dr.
Bergmann, and shows that the Ger-
man physicians are now convinced of
the malignant character of the
kaiser’s Illness, and. although not an-
nouncing it for state reasons, are tak-
ing exactly the measures they would
take with any ordinary patient In
treating a cancerous growth.
That the kaiser is suffering from
the cams disease that carried off his
father and mother Is said to be known
to every physician in Europe, but may
not be officiall announced to the pco-
■ple of the empire.
Even should the kaiser become
speechless within a short time, as has
been predicted, his voice will not be

States.
One has been presented to Harvard
university, a cylinder containing the
emperror’s views upon "Frederick the
Great,” while the other, sent to the
national museum In Washington, con-

WHEN TO PRUNE FRUIT TREES.
Most Growers Do Their Cutting In
Summer for Best Results.
There is an old adage which says:
“For wood prune In winter; for fruit
prune in summer." Professor Bailey
of Cornell says: "There is an exact
balance between the feeding capacity
of the plant, that is, Its root system
apd food supply, and the superficial
growth of the plant. The more active
and efficient the root, the larger the
top. If we remove a large portion of
the top there is an endeavor to supply
the deficiency by an exceedingly
rapid growth."
Winter pruning, by removing large
branches, increases the vigor of the
tree, while snmmer pruning only
pinches the growing points. The ob-
ject of summer pruning is to lessen
the number of leaves, so that the
growth of the wood may bo checked.
This should not be done too early, as
it may stimulate wood gfowth, and if
too late, the buds may not develop.
Midsummer is the proper time for
pruning
