His remarks were suggested by numerous inquiries based on the theory that the United States occupies the position of having adopted the proposition to withdraw the international troops from Peed kin pending peace negotiations, s, Mr. Hill went on to say that the Uniis ted States government received Russia's proposition just tne same as other nations After due consideration a re Qf ply was framed and forwarded to the e_ Russian government. At the same time a_ the representatives of all of the other Jy nations interested were supplied with a lc_ copy of our reply and the same was given to the press for publication. ^ There was nothing in our reply to Rus" sia requiring that other nations should ee send their answers to Russia's propositlon to the United States government. ^ Their responses must be made originally to the Russian government. According to diplomatic usage, after their ed responses have been made to Russia, ft'. copies of the same will, in all probability. be furnished the United States, es Some of the nations have not been as ns prompt as the United States in makhe ing answer to Russia, and therefore it iy is impossible to anticipate the ultimate ra fate of the Russian proposition. The United States is in no way responsible '01 for it and only accedes to it under the ill conditions set forth in our official re'tn ply. That, said Mr. Hill, is the status ne of the United States so far as the Rustil sian proposition is concerned, and it U1 would be idle to speculate.on hypothetic ical questions as to what course the United States may pursue under remote contingencies. 8t In any and all negotiations likely to ,B_ follow in connection with the settleut ment of the Chinese problem, the United e(j States does not propose to lose sight of k.n our open door policy in dealing with China. It is supposed that one or more of the powers who originally sanctionas ed the American open door proposition might be glad of an opportunity or a lt reasonable pretext to depart from the i>g written agreement aireauy on rue in 't0 the department of state. It is to safeto guard that agreement and to endeavor to hold all tne parties to me same up n(j to their original declarations in favor of open commercial relations with ChiA na. It is with this object in view ne that the United States deems it advisato ble to pursue a conservative, consiste(j ent and at the same time a practical n_ business policy in dealing with the Chinese situation. White Man Killed Negro. es In Columbia, last Saturday night, Machinist Holland killed Rutherford, a at colored flagman. Holland cursed Ruthce erford for drinking water out of the he white people's bucket. They had a irt row and were separated, and when . the second fight started Holland stabbed Rutherford. Holland was hit with n~ an iron bar by Rutherford. There is is much excitement among the Negroes. SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS. And the Mill Made the Interest. Anderson Intelligencer: Steve Philips, near Gaffney, sold his cotton crops of the last five years a short time ago. As the cotton was ready for market he took it to the Cherokee mill and took a receipt for so many pounds of cotton, samples of which were preserved. The understanding was that he could select his own time for selling. Year after year he did the same until he had nearly 400 bales deposited. The advance in price paid him well for holding the cotton for he sold his five crops at 9J all round. Mr. Capers Gees to Georgetown. The State, Saturday: Mr. Linson uapers, Jr., who soon retires as county superintendent of education, and having failed of election in his race for state superintendent of education, will leave the city on October 1 for Georgetown, where he will become superintendent of the public schools. Mr. Capers has scores of friends here who will regret that himself and his attractive family will go elsewhere. Mr. Capers has already resigned as treasurer of the Labor Day association of this county and Mr. J. R. Allen has been elected to fill the vacancy. Homicide lu Cherokee. Gaffney special of Friday to the Spartanburg Journal; Near Thickety, Wednesday night, Jim Jeter shot and killed Santa Anna Tate and seriously wounded Tate's wife. All the parties are colored. The trouble arose out of Tate claiming some furniture that Jeter had bought. The testimony at the Inquest was to the effect that Tate was threatening to kill Jeter with an axe, which he held in his hand at the time the fatal shot was fired. The coroner's Jury, however, returned a verdict that Jeter feloniously killed Tate. Jeter came here this morning and surrendered himself to Sheriff Thomas and is now locked up. Beat the World. Sumter Herald: The medal of highest award for telephones exhibited at the Paris exposition has been won by The Telephone Manufacturing company, of Sumter, which is generally known in Sumter as "the old company." Notice of the award has been received by the officers of the company here, and they with their friends feel very much rejoiced over the result, as it means that the phones made by the company are orncially declared to be the best in the world by a picked jury nf plpof-Honl p*nprts and thnrnnsrh judges of telephone appliances. In competition witn The Telephone Manufacturing company, were many other companies whose names were better known, and who had more reputation; but the superior quality of the Sumter-made macnines beat everything in sight. Imperial telephones will become better known than ever all over the civilized world now that their superiority has received the highest endorsement perhaps that it is possible to get. We are exceedingly glad to record this brilliant victory, and The Telephone Manufacturing company is to be congratulated upon it, as it was won on merit, pure and simple. Quite a Pretty Idea. On the grounds which have been selected as the site of the South Carolina Inter-State and West Indian exposition, there stands an old colonial home, which was the scene of lavish comfort and open-hearted hospitality in days gone by. It is proposed to restore this old home, now somewhat touched by the tooth of Time, to something of its original state, and to collect within its walls, valuable relics of the past. No state in the Union, perhaps, contains more of these relics than South Carolina. and some of these are not only notable as antiques, but have the added value of being historic. The table which Henry Laurens, president of the congress of 1777, used while he was a prisoner in the Tower of London, is in the possession of a lady of South Carolina; few - cities possess finer specimens of the work of the most famous of the early miniaturists than Charleston does, while the old plantation homes on the Ashley and Cooper, which in some cases have been in the same family for more than 200 years, are full of reminders of the men who made South Carolina a great state in the early days of the Republic, and whose memories are still kept green.

I An Exciting Serial Story ' BY MAJOR ARTHUR GRIFFITHS, 1 A GIRL OF GRIT Is a love story full of adventure and startling situations. William Wood, a ' handsome young man, a captain in the , English army, is unexpectedly left $15,000,000 by an American uncle. A band of conspirators, who know really more . about the fortune and the affairs of , the deceased than the heir, concoct a plot to get possession of the cash. . Two ' of them abduct Captain Wood and carry him off to sea while the others sail , for the United States to take possession of his fortune. They also take J with thf?m some highly important state papers which they found with Captain ' Wood's effects. When the kidnapping 1 Is discovered there are two persons of ' consequence greatly interested. Sir J Charles Collingham, Wood's superior officer, and Miss Frlda Fairholme, his sweetheart?"A GIRL OF GRIT." They devote themselves to the work of 1 foiling the conspirators. The import- , ance of the papers involved brings the British government into the search and places a man of war at the disposal of j the searchers. Captain Wood escapes from his captors and takes passage in disguise upon the same ship the plotters have boarded. The overhauling of the ship in midocean by the man of war, the recapture of the important papers, the undoing of the conspirators just as the ship is entering New York harbor, the reunion of Captain Wood and his 1 plucky sweetheart, are all dramatic incidents in the story, which is full of movement from beginning to end. Watch for the opening chapters of "A GIRL OF GRIT," which are soon to appear in THE ENQUIRER.
