From our Regular Corrtepondent. There has been, within t h past week, open avowal of the determination on t h e part of certain influential re, publicans to defeat Mr. Uoose velt in the national republic can convention. The opposi tion is bused on his alleged erratieism and th ground that he in not a ''safe man". a i It is an ill wind which Mows nobody good however, and the same men who are oppo sing Mr. Roosevelt are con templating tbesuppoit of the support of the democratic ticket if a careful and conser vative man should he the nominee. A prominent Mew Yorker who has been recent ly in Washington, said on this subject: "We do not want a man in the White House who is always look ing tor a new sensation and who is willing to abandon even the things of his own in vention as soon as they cease to be novel The enforcement of laws which exist and the advocacy of more ' effective legislation to a desired end is not to be objected to in a President, but we do not want a President to whom the sensational appeals and who would do a thing in the wrong way rutherthrn in the right in order to appear in the glare of thelimelight." This is only a sample of the argumentsadvanced against Mr. Roosevelt's candidacy by that element of New York business men known as "con servatives" and it is heard so frequently as to occasion serious concern tothesuppor ters of the President. The weak and half hearted manner in which the Poft master General has been con ducting the investigations ordered by the President has produced a startling result during the past week. The wife of the Assistant attor in j General for the Postof flee Department, with the as sistance of her sister and a safe expert, has abstracted from the safe which contain ed, presumably, the private and confidential papers ol the division, all the docu ments it contained and re fused to surrender them to the Postmaster General when a demand was made. The sis ter of Mrs. Tyner who arrom panied heron theexpedition is the mother of Hamilton J Bairett. late law clerk of the Pos'offl 'c, whose contract is now under investigation, be cause of his known associa tion with a turf investment some of whose officers have been recently sentenced to teims in the penitentiary for fraud. It is alleged in some quarters that the objecrt o the raid was the abstraction of papers which would hav incriininuted young 1'arrett The loose methods pursue by the Postmaster Genera are shown in that, notwith standing the fact that this division is under investima tion for over a month, by or der of the President, there is no record of the papers the Tyner safe and now that the case has been turned oyer to the Attorney Geneial for prosecution he has no evi dence with whih to tefnle the claims of Mrs. Tyner that she removed only private pa pers belonging to herself and her husband. It is alleged that prartticallv the same thing occurred in the case of Superintendent Maehen'ssafe which, when examined by the inspector, was found to con tain very few documents. An other remaikable feature, of the Tyner incident is that As sistant and acting Attorney I'-tnTal Cbristiancy failed to notify the Postmaster Gener ai of what was going on, al though aware of the presence )f Mrs. Tyner and h -r asoci ates, for fifty minutes, and not until Mrs. Tyner had had nn'ple time to leave the bail ing. It is predicted that there will be further senna tional developments alter the President's visit to St. Lou is this week. There is consternation in the State Department as a result of advices horn China to the effect that Russia has efused to withdiaw lier roops from Manchuria, has demanded partial sovereign ty over the province and has nrther demanded the exclu sion or an oilier nations, This is regarded as in direct violation of treaty pledges made to the United States, as well as to theEuropeau na tions, and the situation is re gaided as serious although it in not likely that this coun try would go to war with Rus sia.evpnif the latter viola ed her treaty obligations t is more than possible, how ever, that the United States will join with the European owers in the emphatic pro test, but that remainsfor the President to decide. Secreta ry Hay says he will submit the case to Mr. Roosevelt at St. Louis A party of forty six Ger man agriculturalists will ar rive in New York the fi r s t week in Mny and will make a ten thousand mile tour of Hie United States, studying the uuricultural methods of this country. The expected visitors are members of an "up-to date" (ci"iian agri cultural society wlios.i mem- bere make annual excursions to some foreign country with a view to learning improved methods and being uble to estimate t h e competition which confronts them in the various departments of agri culture. The party will be ac companied in thiscountry by representatives of the Ami- cultural Department who will afford thein every assis tance in seeing the country. The.v will first visit thenorth west, then iro on to the Pa cific slope and return through the southwest section of the country. Scientists who have been in session in Washington re cently have advised Secreta ry Hay that if the original Declaration of Independence is to be preserved it must be stored in a liuht and a i r proof safe and it has been re m ived liom the glass case in the State Department where it has remained for one hun dred years, Many of the sm natures are ulrcudy illegible, and the text oi the instru ment b? rapidly fading away. This fading is said to be due to the poor quality of ink us ed and also to t he fact that it was submitted to the pro cess of letter copying some ccades ago in order that the original sinners might each possess a facsimile copy. It is learned at the State Department that Mr. Andrew Carnegie ia8 added to the ong list of his benefactions by donating $1,500,000 for the erection ot a building to accommodate the Hague Tri bunal. Mr. Carnegie, has long been a most earnest advo cate of ppace and of arbitra tion and his generous dona tion is only a concrete ex prcssion of his great grutifi cation at the establishment of an international arbitra tion tribunal. A rumor to this effect was in circulation tome time ago, but no dfi nite action had been taken at that time and only last week did Mr. Carnegie put his offer in writing. DEATH KATE DECREASING.

When it is born in mind that these are the first bonds that we have offered for Hale in a generation, which do not convey u lien on some spe cific tax or source of revenue or property (like the p':niten tiary bonds which are to some extent a spi-ehl lien on the penitentiary earnings find our 4 per cent bonds which have certain taxes pledged I'm their payment) and that these bonds nie simply based upon the faith of the State, it is seen that our credit is re markablv high.
