Mr. Hay, secretary of state, Is in Buffalo and hence, could not discuss this, latest development. But before he left here he had considered carefully with his subordinates the Ohi-| nese question. He felt then that the representatives of the powers were further away from a settlement of the points involved than ever before.

Mr. Rockhlll did •o three days ago. This Is the second time that the United States has made the suggestion. During Mrs. McAlpln's address she incidentally mentioned the noble Christian work which had been done by Miss Helen E. Gould, and there were loud calls for a speech from that lady, who was seated upou the platform. She acknowledged the compliment by rising and bowing to the audience, but refrained from making any remarks. Mrs. Russell Sage was also forced to bow her acknowledgment* of a similar demonstration. There was a manifested, desire to have a speech from Hear Admiral Watson, and he briefly responded."As to the relations of Mrs. Helen Hall to tlilH ease. I will say that her ,claiiu Is not cousitfered seriously. We all know that she has no legal claim upon the estate, but I think both branches of the family are disposed to make allowance for her. I have no dmibt that some annuity will by mutual agreement be settled upon Mrs. Hall, although we are satisfied that she has no claim before the law. I believe the whole matter will be settled in a very short time and that we will avoid any litigation." "The government has unquestionably been robbed for a long jtlme past, and I believe the amount of the losses sustained by Uncle Sam through the treachery and dlshondsty of some of his army officers will reach Into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.
