Mexico City, October 26.—Documents providing for the transfer of the Mexi can, Curnavaca and Pacific railroad to the Mexican Central Railroad company have been prepared and only await sig natures. Tlie Central acquires the prop erty free from ail incumber an oes, merely by paying its liabilities to London and national banks, the liability for which ♦he government is guarantor. The liabil ity in question Is approximately $4,600,000. In connection with the Impending trans fer the government has granted to the Central Railroad company an amended concession, which empowers that com pany to build either to Acapulco or Zihuatanejo, as surveys may demon strate to be the more advisable. If Zihuatanejo is chosen as a terminus, then a branch line must be built to Chilpancingo. It is reported that the sub sidy is to be $8000 per kilometer, payable in 5 per cent interest redeemable deben ture bonds at par, but if the road goes to Zihuatanejo, then the subsidy per kilometer between the original road and ihe branch to Zihuatanejo will be $8000 per kilometer.

Have Chance to Exhibit CONDITIONS AS THEY EXIST For the First Time in the History of the Press in the Czar’s Domain Censorship Has Been Compiled. Et. Petersburg, Saturday, October 11.— Although the former com kitchens don't seem to have succeeded In familiarizing European nations with the delights of southern combread and mufTlfis, It may not be without Interest to announce that an International culinary exposition is to be held In this city. Definite plans have not yet been formed. Perhaps since Em peror William of Germany has been con verted to the use of American breakfast food, the American cereal Interests may deem the opportunity worth seizing. Commeiclal conditions in the interior of Russia seem to be improving some what The river steamer companies had a good season. Money Is reported much easier. Five per cent discounts are quot ed at Nljlnll-Novgorod, and some three months loans have even been made at 8% per cent The agricultural committee of Soudja, In Koursk, two members of which, Prince Dolgopouky and M. Teverelmov, were re buked by the ministry of the Interior for procuring the adoption of a radical pro gramme at the first session of the com mittee, has found an effective way of pro testing. When the committee met again a sub-committee report was read, virtually reasserting the resoluUons which had proven so offensive and which the Czar, by Implication, condemned In his address to the zemstvos and koursk. His com munication was received In silence. The next subject was then read. The members sat motionless. The chair man loudly Inquired: "Dees nobody de sire to proceed.'* No one responded and the committee was declared adjourned. Demand and Complaint. This sub-committee report embodies a demand and complaint of the Zemstvos which date back In some Instances to the very origin of local government In Rus sia and are a striking Illustration of the persistence of zemstvos’ Ideas. It Is a pithy reproduction of a portion of the secret programme arranged by zem stvos’ leaders of twenty-five provinces at Moscow last spring, and Is therefore a political document of first-class Inter est. For the first time In the history of the Russian press during the last half centu ry the censorship has made a compila tion of the prohibitions and the partial prohibitions which It considers still bind ing. These, however, as In former years, are guarded carefully from too much publicity. A recent "confidential circu lar” seeks to codify the prohibitions and specially states that no other past circu lars need be considered at all. The fol lowing are the more notable provisions of the censorship as codified: What is Forbidden. 1. Ministerial reports to the czar may not be published without the consent of the ministry of the interior; likewise ru mors about the same, viz., acts and ex pressions of the czar. 2. Matters emanating from the higher governmental circles, such as documents and decisions, may not be referred to without the consent of the authority con cerned. 3. Circulars of governmental depart ments may not be referred to without the special permission of the department con cerned. 4. Information relating to the empire’s defensive position, mobilization or dislo cation of the army or navy, credits for war purposes, construction of strategic roads or warships, etc., may be taken on ly from the russki Invalid. 5. News of articles concerning the main tenance of the Chinese eastern railroad and its guard are forbidden. 6. News about the commanderlng of agents of the finance ministry Into Persia and the results of their work Is forbidden. ' 7. News about or articles on school dis orders or the last university regulations are forbidden, likewise petitions of the students, blackboard notices, etc., fur thermore, no Information can be printed about the Internal life of any schools without the consent of the proper authori ties. 8. Articles or news about political ar rests or crime or criminals, except what are printed in the Official Messenger or other ofTlclal organs about executions and those who perform them are prohibit ed. 9. Factory disorders and other publlo disorders cannot be mentioned without the consent of the higher police. 30. Pestilence In Russia and neighbor ing countries cannot be mentioned with out the decision of the medical depart ment. 11. No allusions can be made to the per sonnel of the work of the secret police. 12. Suicides cannot be mentioned with out the written consent of the nearest relatives, 18. Mention of contemporaneous meas ures against religious dlssentors, or of the holy synod's action against Tolstoi Is for bidden. NO MORE ASSESSMENTS. New York Central Federation Thinks Further Funds Not Necessary. New York, October 28.—Daniel Jacobs, chairman of the miners’ defense fund committee of the Central Federation un ion, said at the meeting of that body today that as the strike of the anthra cite miners had been declared off the committee did not think It necessary to levy any furthed contributions for the miners. Delegate Holland of the Eccentric Firemen’s union said that no attention will be paid to the order here. If the In ternational Association of Stationary Firemen directed members not to handle anthracite until all the striking firemen at the mines are reinstated. His organiza tion had decided that as the mine workers had called the strike off, no other union had a right to Interfere. Wireless Telegraphy to be Used.

Cincinnati, October 28.—The total regis tration In this city of 71,107 Is a falling off of 5258 as compared with the state election of last year. The registration has fallen short In other parts of the state, so that a smaller vote than usual Is expected In Ohio on November 6. CENSUS REPORT ON ILLITERACY FIGURES SHOW THAT CHILDREN OF THE FOREIGN BORN POPU-1 LATION ARE BETTER EDUCATED THAN NATIVE CHILDREN. Washington, October 26.—The census of- : fice has Issued a statement giving a com-. pilation of figures regarding illiteracy among children of immigrants and chil dren of natives. The statement says: "Confining the comparison to children between the ages of 16 and 14 years In tne United 8tates as a whoje 95.6 per cent of the native white children of native par ents and 99.1 per cent of the native white children of foreign-born parents are able to read and write. "This surprising difference in favor of j the children of the foreign-born popula tion, Is due largely to the fact that the j children of foreign-born immigrants, live mainly in the northern and western states , where the public school systems have al- 1 ready reached a high degree of efficiency, while great numbers of native white chtl- • of native parents live In /the southern states and in that region about 10 per cent of such children are Illiterate. When tt»e comparison Is carried out by geographic divisions, the difference between the two. classes in each part of the United 8tntos. • except the south Atlantic states. Is found , to be much less than in the whole coun try. Yet these figures indicate that in ev ery region, except the north Atlantic • states, the literate children of Immigrant whites, are d larger per cent of the whole j number of such children, than the liter- 1 ate children of native whites are of an ' children of native whites. | "This is partly explained by the clus- j terlng of immigrants and their children j mainly in the cities and towns, while the j native white children of native parents 1 live more generally in the rural districts. Thus in the north Atlantic division there are 906,851 native white children, 10 to 14 years of age, and born of native parents, of whom 32 per cent live in cities having at least 25,000 inhabitants. On the other hand among 713.432 native white children, 10 to 14 years of age, and born of foreign-born parents who live in the same group of states, 62 per cent live in smaller cities. There is no reason to infer from the census figures that the children of illiterate immigrants are con stituting a permanent illiterate class in the population. "It will be noticed, however, that the foregoing figures relate exclusively to Im migrants who have been in the country long enough for their children born here, to have reached the age of 10 years. Whether among the children of immi grants who have arrived since 1890. there is the same eagerness to acquire at least an elementary education, it is still too early determine from census figures.

FIVE BLOCKS ARE NOW ONDER WATER HEAVY RAINS HAVE CAUSED GREAT DAMAGE IN BRUNSWICK, GA.—SEVERE WASHOUTS RE PORTED ON THE RAILROADS. Brunswick. Ga., October 26.—As a result of continued heavy rains for the past forty-eight hours, five blocks in the cen ter of this city are under water tonight, and considerable damage has been done from Monk to Mansfield. On Newcastle street, one of the principal business blocks in the city, the water has risen into the stores and is from ten to fifteen inches deep. The city fire department is under water. The jails are both flooded, and from Bay to Union streets, a distance of a quarter of a mile, trofflc is impos sible. The Brunswick Electrical T3upply com pany hus been put entirely out of busi ness by the water, and not a light fur nished by that concern is burning to night. A heavy northeaster has been prevail ing for two or three days, and the only reason assigned for the downpour by mariners and nautical people generally Is that these gales contribute their share to the deluge. Railroad traffic has been badly inter rupted and several washouts have been reported on the Southern between Bruns wick and Jessup, And on the Brunswick and Birmingham, the latter coming In over the Atlantic Coast Line tracks. All malls are belated, both arriving and de parting. FOUR GREAT PROBLEMS. Dr. Trueblood, Representative at The Hague Conference Delivers Address. Indianapolis, Ind., October 26.—Dr. Ben jamin Trueblood, representative of the American Peace society at The Hague conference and member of the Interna tional Peace Bureau and International Law association, addressed the national conference of Friends tonight on “The Four Great Problems of the Age." He said: “There are four great problems that are staring us in the face and unless they are solved by the Christian church during the coming century this nation and others cannot hold their own. * They are the terrible liquor evil that does more to ruin the homes, blight minds and cause crime than any one other agency; the Industrial problem, that has been going on during the last half century, and which has now reached an acute stage; the race problem, which has been going on for all time, and the wars be tween great nations. “Industrial war is wrong from all points of view. Industrial tyranny and slavery should not be permitted. The early church swept aside boundaries and declared all men are brothers. There should be no race distinctions. The ques tion of the abolition of war is the great est one the civilized wrorld has to con tend with today.” LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE. Rates for Money Continue Low and Applications Are Few. London, October 26.—The rates for money continue low. The £2,600,000 raised last week to meet the treasury bills, ap peared to be easily procurable on the open market, and did not result In any marked stiffening of prices. No appli cations for large loans are being made to the bank; consequently the bank’s’ 4 per cent rate has not yet had the effect of raising the market prices. The bank Is beipg urged to make its rate more effective. It has now begun to borrow freely for short periods, in order to help harden rates and incidentally to lesson the probability of a flow of gold to Paris, where the demand for money is increasing. The apprehensiveness concerning mone tary conditions in New York has now fairly subsided. The non-speculative condition of the stock exchange last week extended into the American department which relapsed into activity in sympa thy with .the general indifference. The very slight damage done to stock mar kets in the United States by the late money stringency there, has begotten re newed confidence, however, in Ameri can shares and these undoubtedly will continue to keep the leading features in a continuously dull market.

Public men ought to strive to bind the two great countries more firmly together. "If Great Britain and the United States," said the admiral, "were joined in the interests of universal peace, and If the rest of the world want ed to fight, these countries, then let the rest of the world look out."
