News at St. Petersburg.
St. Petersburg, April 12, 4:38 p. m.—
The admiralty has no information in
regard to the alleged naval battle in
progress off the Anabas islands, as re
ported to a newspaper of Amsterdam
from Batavia, and does not credit the
possibility of a general naval battle
yet. The officials concede, however,
that the Japanese may have attempted
a torpedo boat attack on a convoy
during the night It is pointed out
that there is no cable connecting the
Anabas islands and the Batavia, and
that the first news of a fight should
come from Singapore unless the Dutch
warships are able to communicate
with Batavia by wireless telegraphy.
Is the Farewell Salutation of a “Get
Rich-Quick” Concern.
Kansas City, April 12.—The Ameri
can Mercantile association, alleged to
be a “get-rich-quick” concern, with
offices in a downtown office building,
has been closed and this notice post
ed on the door:
“Good Bye, Suckers, Good Bye.”
The whereabouts of the officers
qf the association is not known. The
company’s head office was at St. Jo
seph, Mo., and from there a notice had
been sent out to its subscribers, an
nouncing the suspension as follows:
“The officers of the American Mer
cantile association takes this means
to announce to you that the business
of said corporation has been suspend
ed, and that it will be unable to com
plete or carry out Its contract with
you.”
When this notice was received by
the Kansas City subscribers, the ma
jority of whom are laboring people
they flocked to the concern’s offices.
Many pitiable scenes were enacted.
The subscribers had agreed to pay
$1 a week for 80 weeks on the prom
ise that they wi re to receive $100 at
the end of that period. Many working
girls and laborers had been making
payments for months past. One
woman had paid $7.50 a week for Gt
weeks, and expected soon to realize
$720.
