rHE FIRES SPREADING
Only a Heavy Rain Can Save West
Slope of Rockies.
FLAKES ON PIKE'S PEAK RANGE
People Becoming Terrified by the
Havoc Wrought.
TITE STOCKMAN'S LOSSES
DENVER, Col.. October 1.?The forest
Or - ? n IIn west slope of the Rockies con
tinue to spread, and only a heavy rain can
'top them. In the vicinity of Steamboat
Springs then* has bfon a rainfall which
checked ihe tires there, but they are still
smoldering and will start into life again
unless there shall soon be more rain or
siow. Le al Forecaster Brandenburg says
he has observed no change in weather con
ditions that point to rain, though the wel
come prediction of the weather bureau at
Washington for Colorado is "showers."
Gov. Adams said today: "I think the
only tling that will put a stop to the fires
for good is a heavy rain. There Is little
\.se in trying to put out the fires by the
usual means, as the tire is not continuous.
Prom what I can learn It must be in prob
ably fifty different places. In my opinion
the tires are due wholly to accident. Camp
ers build a tire; a spark blows into the
underbrush which is very dry. and a fire
is the result. It is so easy to start a forest
fir*- just now that it is almost impossible
to ascertain the origin of it. Sparks from
railroad engines may have caused some
fir* s."
The Mountain Fires.
Within a day or two fires have appeared
cn the west slope of the Pike's Peak range,
and large sections of timber are being de
stroyed. Great volumes of smoke can be
seen rolling over 'he crest of the rang'?.
The fires seern to be burning fiercely along
the west side of Mount Baldy, which rises
to an altitude of 13.unt? feet, four miles
south of Pike's Peak. At sundown the
volume of smoke decreases perceptibly.
Phe people of Pitkin county are becom
ing t? rrified over the haVoc wrought by the
fire thru is now raging near Aspen. The
county c? mmlssioners are advising with
the city authorities as to the best methods
Co check the fire, but as yet no plan has
been outlined.
The fire on White river has burned over
an area of 1?m square miles and is still
sweeping eastward in a stretch ten miles
wide.
The people of upper White river have
fought fire for three weeks, day and night.
They have been aided by Forest Rangers
Dunn and Glblet. Parties from that sec
tion say they have seen nothing of the
other government rangers.
The towns of Kokorao and Hahn's Peak
are reported to be in danger from the fires
surrounding them.
Glenw< od Springs is enveloped in a cloud
of smoke and the situation in that vicinity
is rapi lly becoming worse.
BYERS. Col.. October 1.?The prairie fires
between Living Spring* and Corona have
caused a considerable loss to stockmen,
ai.d as fuller account? are received the
magnitude of the disaster is more apparent.
Among those burned out are Stewart &
Adams and Will Epple. The range for
many railts has been destroyed, and the
outlook for rhf coming winter is not a
bright one for the cattle and sheep indus
tries of the burned districts.
WLL BE ALLOW ED TO RESIGN
Result of the Charges Made Against Super
iaieudent Stewart.
A of Tentimony Submitted ol\
?AMMintaut Secretary
S]iuul<] inu'i Action.
Superintendent Stewart of the new city
pest office will be allowed to hand in his
itsignatiOin to the Treasury Department
ar.d witl ?sVape dismissal. He was today
told that as a result of the investigation of
fch?jX?es fiietl against him he woui 1 not be
?fcie to Jsoto blirpi&c?, and the department
M^uki accept resignation. Mr. Stewart
hfc i toe matter under consideration at 2
ti'cieck trrts afternoon, but it Is thought
there is i?o other course for him but resig
nation.
Three months ago the supervising archi
tect ?>f the treasury, Mr. Taylor, came to
the conclusion, it Is said, that Mr. Stew
art's retention as superintendent of the
building would delay its completion. Mr.
Taylor had a preliminary investigation
made and satisfied himself that Mr. St?w
art was not competent to continue in his
position. He thereupon filed charges
against the superintendent of incompetency
a:. 1 inefficiency. Gen. Spauldir.g, assistant
8_~. r?tary of the treasury, decided to have
a hearing of the charges. He instructed
the solicitor of *ho treasury, Judge? O'Con
nell. *?> investigate the charges by taking
testimony
Cltaraen Filed.
Before all the complaints against Mr.
Stewart had been made out there was added
the charge that Mr. Stewart was favoring
one set of contractors at the expense of
another and that he was discriminating at
will. One firm of sul>contractors filed an
affidavit that because they had talked freely
at the oil!' of the supervising architect Mr.
Stewart Had threatened to see that they
lost their contract. They also charged that
h^ threatened to impede their work all he
could. The firm- Hurdle & McCartney?has
since that time had considerable trouble
with their workmen. They allege that Mr.
Stewart is a: the bottom > f all the trouble.
Charges were alFo filed that Ernest Stew
art a son of the contractor, represented
He*8 Company, the main contractors for
the completion of the building, and that
arother son represented the Philadelphia
St^am Heating Company, which has a
large contnu* for th^ Interior heating
One of the affidavits filed charged Mr.
Stewart with collusion with his sons to
aid the firms represented by them and to
rcrco the government to pay more for cer
tain work than It could have the work ob
tained for by others.
The investigation, which was held by the
solicitor, was upon seven charges. Five of
the--?e related to inefficiency and lncompe
tcrcy.
One related to the failure to make recom
mendations to the architect's office, and the
last was in regard to collusion and favor
itism. It is said today that upon all five of
the charges of Incompetency the solicitor
found Mr Stewart guilty. The remaining
charges, he finds, were not fully estab
lished.
A Orcut Mn?* of Tcwtliuony.
A great mass of testimony was filed dur
ing the hearing. Mr. Stewart's side of the
cas* was presented last week. He entered
general and specific denials to all the
charges, and made a strong fight, especially
against th- charges reflecting upon his In
tegrity. He declared that he was not
guilty of collusion or of favoring certain
contractors at the expense of others.
Among the men who testified during the
hearing were Messrs. Oliver. Ellis, Hurdle,
Davis and Weisinger, contractors and in
spectors.
One of the main charges of the super
vising architect was that Mr. Stewart re
lied too much upon his foremen and in
spectors "When asked for a report as to
the progress of work, it Is said that ho
woui I report that his inspector or his fore
man wild so and so.
After taking the testimony. Judge O'Con
nell made recommendations to Gen. Spauld
Ing. who went over the mass of testimony
before d'-cldlng to ask for the resignation
of Mr. Stewart.
Mr. Stewart was the superintendent of
the building four or rive years ago. Sec
retary Carlisle appointed Mr. Kinsey to
succeed him. Mr. KJnssy resigned under
pressure about a vear ago. and Mr. Stewart
was again put in charge.

REPUBLICAN SUCCESS
Commissioner Duell Thinks the Chances
Are Brighter in the West.
Interest of the People in Retaining:
the Philippines?Roosevelt Will
Win in New York.
After an absence of nearly two months
Commissioner of Patents Charles H. Duell
has returned to his labors. He went west,
visiting: California and all the Pacific states
as far as Wa'shington. He stopped en route
at the Yellowstone and paid a short visit
to the Omaha exposition. He was accom
panied by his wife and three children. To
a reporter of The Star this morning Com
missioner Duell spoke of his trip. He said:
"After that magnificent trip through the
west I feel ten years younger. What a
great country it Is, and what possibilities
It is capable of. On my way to California
I stopped at Yellowstont Park and took
In the grandeur of that awe-inspiring place.
My visit to California was delightful, tfnd
I looked for the first time on the Golden
Gate. From California I went north and
visited the ?tat<? of Washington. Every
where there was evidence of prosperity and
the people seemed very happy. Politics?
Oh. yes. I felt the put>lie pulse. In fact,
whenever T go away I make it a point to
look into the political situation.
C'liance* for liepuhlienn Success.
"The chances for republican success in
the west arc very bright. The administra
tion is popular with the people, and the
democrats themselves have nothing but
praise for the President. That meeting in
California demonstrated that when it ln
drr ed the President- I confidently look for
republican success in California and Wis
consin. Washington will be close, but the
leaders ther.* ar.-> yery hopeful. While there
is considerable activity in politics in the
extreme west, the people are very much
more interested in the policy of the admin
istration toward .our new possessions in
the Philippines. And there is little won
der at this, since the retention of the Phil
ippines means so much to the merchants
and producers in the west.
"A prominent manufacturer and politician
tersely put the situation to me in a con
versation one day. He said it was possible
for the producers In the west to land a
cargo at Hong Kong at a cost of *.1 per
ton. In the United States the fre>ig'nt was
so high and'the competition so rabid that
it was impossible to carry a ton anything
like that distance for such a price. To
open the Philippines to our trade would
be to increase the wealth of the west. They
all want the islands retained.
"On my way east I stopped at the Omaha
exposition. It is well worth the trip. While
not ;*o large as the world's fair. It is equal
ly Interesting, and one has an opportunity
of seeing everything In a short space of
time. The government exhibit is fine, and
the one from the patent office attracts con
siderable attention. I found the most In
terest. however, centered about the gov
ernment's army and navy exhibit. There
were relics arriving every day from the
war, and the people were hungry for a
glimpse of them.
Roosevelt Will Be Elected.
"Before I resumed my duties h??re I went
up into New Yo*-k state, in the neighbor
hood of my old home at Syracuse, to look
over the political situation there. Roose
velt will be elected by a handsome ma
jority. I think the democrats have made a
serious blunder in nominating Judge Van
Wyck. The democrats in central and north
ern New York do not relish Tammany
Hall's interference in the state. They are
wilMng to have the organization control
New York city, but object to its trying to
run the whole state. With Judge Van Wyck
governor, and his brother mayor, the state
would be entirely controlled by Tammany
Hall, and the rural democrats would have
no show ait all. There is a wholesome re
publican interest in the campaign, and I
look for a big majority for the daring
colonel of the Hough Riders."

Englishmen Marvel at the American
Jockey's Riding.
PANIC .AMONG THE BOOKMAKERS
Immense Winnings by Owners of
the Lad's Mounts.
LAYERS KEFUSE BETS
From the Xew York Journal, Today.
LONDON, September 30.?James Tod
Sloane, American Jockey, today turned
Newmarket Heath topsy-turvy. The Brit- i
ish bookmaker, popularly supposed to be
about the gameut man breathing, was on
the run and before the afternoon was over j
was refusing- to take bets on Sloane s
mounts.
Pierre Lorillard and Lord William Beres- i
ford, who brought the little American over ,
to ride for the stable they own in partner
ship, led the plunge on his mounts, es
pecially on their American-bred horses,
Draco in the Bretby Welter Handicap and
Manatee in the Nursery Handicap. The
latter was at odds of 5 to 4, while Draco
was at 5 to 4 on. On these two races the
partners fairly cleaned out the bookies, and
the great section of the public that follow
ed them went crazy with financial delight.
Then happened what was one of the most
remarkable things ever seen on an English
race course. The bookmakers actually re
fused to accept money on any of Sloane's
mounts, no matter what prices had been
made. But such was the furor to back him i
that Sloane's enthusiastic admirers actual
ly offered the bookmakers a premium of 10
per cent on the amounts invested to take .
their money. Many wagers were laid under
these conditions. i
A Phenomenal Record. j
No such phenomenal success has been j
seen on the English turf since Fred Arch- |
er's palmiest days, and many things con- ^
tributed to make today's happenings more !
astounding than anything Archer ever ac- j
complished. Sloane rode in all the seven ,
races run at Newmarket today. Of them I
he won five, was third once and once un- |
placed. This is not exactly a record, for j
Archer once won all the races on the pro
gram, but the vast difference between the j
style of Sloane and our English jockeys j
alone makes today's performance more re
markable than ihe former record.
Last year, when Sloane made his first ap- j
pearance in England, his apparently cramp
ed style brought him sneers and jeers
trom all the natives. What he did last
autumn gained him some respect, but he
was still received with doubt. Last week,
when he won several races in surprising
style at Manchester, there was a change
of tone, but it took the present week's do
ii gs at Newmarket, the turf headquarters
of England, to entiiely change public ophi
te n.
What has happened this week has simply
up&et the whole turf world, especially the
Jockeys. Sloane has made the English style
and methods ridiculous, and has by his
own efforts raised himself to the position
of the most popular man on the English
turf.
The ruffianly attempts of Sam Loates and 1
Nat. Robinson to ride foul of him yester
day have also reacted in his favor. The
turf world, without exception, regards
these attempts as merely the exhibition of
i nfair and unsportsmanlike efforts of de
feated rivals. Loates and Robinson, tho igh
they are both jockeys of established rep
utation, are condemned on every ha id,
while the glory of Sloane's victories tod iy
was correspondingly increased.
Tlie Public Wild Over Sloune.
Words scarcely suffice to describe the
furor of enthusiasm that the little man's
exploits have created. The public has gone
w ild over iiim, and has no praise too "ligh
for him. The crowd of Americans who
have been backing his mounts, aiu^ many
are included besides Michael F. Dwyer's
son Charles and J. C. Quinn. who came
over with him, are fairly weighted do vn
with money. Mr. Lorillard and Lord Wil- |
l.am Beresford are presumably the prin
cipal winners. It is certain that they have .j
taken many thousands of pounds, perhaps
tens of thousands, cut of the ring; but :io- I
body can, of course, estimate what Sloane's
success has cost the bookmakers. Their
action today was significant that they have
been bled in a way hitherto unknown to
them. j
in three days of the Newmarket first Oc
tober meeting Sloane rode fourteen times
and won ten races. Such continued success
is without parallel in the annals of the En- |
glish turf. Assuredly the bookies think it
so and have abundant cause for grief. The
strength of the contingent of backers that
is following Sloane about to the various
meetings and betting on his mount in every
race without regard to the horse he rides is
quite unprecedented. In fact "the public is
backing Sloane and not horses for a
change," as a well-known turlite said to
day.
The American jockey today lost the first
race. It Wis an ordinary selling plate at
a mile and a half, in which he rod*- F. W.
Jarvls's The Wake. He made a game fight,
tut was beaten, oddly enough, by good old
Eau Gallie, the six-year-old American-bred
gelding by Iroquois?Duchess, that Mr.
Klehard Croker brought to England. The
verdict was only a nose.
All "AI?o Itnn** This Time,
it was rather a strange coincidence that
Sloane also lost ths last race of the day,
riding Mr. Lortllard's two-year-old Boomer
in the Rutland Stakes, at six furlongs. In
this race he finished among the "air j
lans," but tho other five races were his
easily. The Rutland was won by C. D.
Rose's Ally Santa Casa, with Mrs. Lang
try's Eboracum second and J. Storey
Curtis' colt Methcd, another American
bred one and full brother to Ornament,
third. -
On the Lorillard-Beresford stabl='s four
year-old gelding Draco, by The Sailor
I'rince, out of Darya, Sloane won the Bret
by welter handicap at six fui longs. The
three-year-old Fregoli was second and the
thrje-year-old The White Prince, third.
Six horses ran, and Draco was a warm
favcritc at 5 to 4 on.
In the Scurry nursery stakes, a handi
cap at five furlongs, the Lorillard-Beres
ford stable's gelding. Manatee, with Tod
up. scored another victory. Eleven horses
ran. In the Rous memorial stakes, at five
furlongs, for two-year-olds, Sloane's win
ning mrunt was Sir R. W. Griffith's Land
rail. There were only three runners, but
the betting was 5 to 2 against the winner.
Quassia was second and Canobie Lea third.
The Beresford thrse-year-old filly. Libra,
by Sensation, out of Lima, gave Sloane an
other winning mount in the all-aged sell
j ing plate, at five furlongs. Then he had his
firal triumph, when he landed that very
uncertain bruts. Sir J. Miller's Galashiels,
by Galopln, out of Thebals, winner for the
second time since he reached England, in
the Newmarket St. Leger Htake, at one
mile and thres-quarters. The field was
again small, only three going to the post.
The Duke of Westminster supplied the
runner up in his St. Simon colt, Collar, and
Mr. Houldsworth's Greenan was third.
Sloane returned to London last night,
flushid with victory. Today he rode at the
Alexandra Park meeting.

mortal reeiairwSof Mr. Thomas Francis
Bayard.
A multitude of people early assembled at
the quaint and historic Old Swedes Church,
where the body had been taken the night
before on its arrival from Dedham. But
the church was not thrown open to the pub
lic, as it had been decided not to open the
1 casket and perj*itt the people to view the
remains.
There was a profusion of floral offerings
in addition to those of the family, coming
from friends at -home and at other places.
Prominent among the offerings was a group
of palms adorned' with American beauty
j roses from the Bayard Legion Democratic
I Club of Wilmington, named in honor of
Mr. Bayard, and of which he had been a
member since its organization.
The hour of the funeral was before 2
o'clock, but before that time the little
church was crowded with those for whom
admission had been reserved. They com
prised the pallbearers, members of the New
castle County Bar Association, representa
tives of the Delaware Society, "Sons of the
American Revolution," and committees
representing the Bayard Legion and the
I Young Men's Democratic Club.
The honorary pallbearers were former
President Grovjr Cleveland, former Sec
retary of the Treasury Charles S. Fair
child, E. W. Tunnell, governor of Delaware;
Chancellor John R. Nicholson, George L.
Rives of New York city, John V. Craven
and Thomas Craven of Salem, N. J., and
Judge Ignatius C. Grubb, Dr. James A,
Draper and Henry G. Banning of Wilming
ton.
Members of Mr. Bayard's family left the
family residence, Delamore Place, in time
to arrive at the church at 2 o'clock, and a
few minutes later the burial services be
gan. They comprised simply the prayer book
service for the burial of the dead of the
Protestant Episcopal Church. The service
was read jointly by the Rev. Dr. C. W.
Douglass of Tuxedo Park. N. J., who, as
rector of St. John's Protestant Episcopal
Church. Washington, perfoimed the mar
rlags ceremony of Mr. and Mrs. Bayard,
and the Rev. Martin E. Dunlap, rector of
Old Swedes.
When the service reached the point of
the commitment of tnfe body io the grave
the casket was lifted by the carriers, and,
attended by the pallbearers, members of
j the family and others within the church,
was taken !o the Bayard burial plot In the
graveyard adjoining the church.
A great crowd had assembled, waiting to
see this, the only public feature of the fu
neral. In double lines from the church to
the burial plot stood members of the Bay
ard Legion Young Men's Democratic
Club, who bar#* their heads as the mourn
ful procession passed by.
Slowly and su^pmly the body was low
ered into the vault where lie the remains
of Mr. Bfrfard*? father and mother and

Fnri-e Auiliorlr.ed.
When the commissioner of patents was
making his arguments before the commit
tee r.n appropriation for an Increased
working force he was met with the state
ment that It 5iB not matter how much the
examining force was augmented there
would be no d Lite ret ce In the work accom
plished. This was combated by Commis
sioner Duell, who promised satisfactory ret
suits If allowed addittoral clerks. How
well he has'KljPt l is promise Is shown in
the statement issued as to the condi
tion of the woi?k of tlie office. There are
at this time exactly 2.MW1 less applications
j awaiting action than there was before the
additional force was put to work.
j When The Star reporter cai:ed attention
to this" statement today Commissioner
Duell smiled and said:
"I am very proud of the work thus far
accomplished. It demonstrates better ti.an
any argument what the increased force has
done. We ate working in the greatest
harmony, and the work Is rapidly be 1.;;;
brought up. Examiners who were months
behind in their work are be.ginning to see
the end. and I promise by the 1st of July
to have this office in such shape than an
inventor filing his application fcr patent
can expect and will receive an action
thereon within six weeks. And as time
gees on that time limit will be reduced
intil we will be working on a prompt basis.
This Is, what tie augmented force nas
made possible, and inventors throughout
the country will rejoice at the new order
of things."

THE NATIONAL GUARD
Good Work Being Done by the New
Adjutant General.
?- ?
GEN. HARRIES ACTIVELY INTERESTED
Efforts Being Made to Rehabilitate
the District Militia.
AN IMPORTANT CIRCULAR
Upon his return from Santiago Gen. Har
ries, whose interest in the National Guard
is undiminished, at once resumed command
and began looking into the conditions gov
erning the District militia. He found much
to be done, and as the guard had practically
been without an adjutant general for some
months, he conferred with Gen. Mtles, and
finally Capt. Dap-ray, a former aid on Gen.
?Miles" staff, was selected to co-operate in
the good work of bringing order out of
| chaos. Capt. Dapray was last week as
signed to duty as acting aljutant general
of the District militia.
Tlic Mew Adjutant tienernl.
The selection of Capt. Dapray for this im
portant duty was due to his experience in
military operations, extending over the past
eighteen years. He was aid-de-camp on the
staff of Mai. Gen. Hancock at the time of
the death bf the latter, and for several
years was aid on the staff of Gen. Miles
and served with him through the Geronimo
campaign.
Subsequently he was military aid for the
Secretary of War, then going to the world's
fair as adjutant of the War Department s
model camp, after which time he was regi
mental adjutant of the 23d Infantry, which
position he gave up to be assistant adjutant
general of volunteers. He organized the
provisional brigade of regulars under Gen
eral Shatter at New Orleans, and was then
assigned as adjutant genera! of the 3d
Army Corps, having been applied for by
General Carpenter to assist in the organi
zation.
He was taken ill in the south, and came
here to recuperate his health, and was as
signed to his present duty with the District
militia.
To Rehabilitate tlie Mllltln.
General Harries and Captain Dapray are
now working energetically to rehabilitate
the District militia, and. although quite ill.
General Harries is in constant communica
tion with Captain Dapray in relation to
| these matters.
| The first thing they hope to accomplish is
| to uniform the guard. Another important
question under consideration la whether the
i guard will nave returned to thero the ord
nar.ee equipments which were turned over
to the 1st District of Columbia Volunteer
Regiment when it went into active service
last May.
An Important Circular.
In ordir that immediate steps may be
taken for the improvement of the condi
tion of the District militia, Capt. Dapray
has issued the following:
(Circular No. 4.)
Headquarters District of Columbia Militia, |
WASHINGTON, D. C.,
September 28, 1M!>8.
X. For the purpose of correcting and com
pleting the official records of these head
quarters, all organization commanders will
| at once report the names of such officers
I and men as availed themselves of the
leave of absence and furlough authorized
in paragraph II, General Orders Nc. '<*, cur
rent series, these headquarters, "to enable
members of the National Guard to ent ir
the volunteer army of the United States.'
The reports of regimental and battalion
commanders herein called for will relate j
only to the field ar.d staff of their respec
tive organizations.
II. The commanding officer of each sep
arate integral organization will submit di
rect to these headquarters, as soon as pos
sible, a report of the amount of clothing
and ordnance acti ally on hanu. and the
Ctr.dltion of each article; also the exact
anr-ount of each required for the full and j
ccmplete equipment of the organization.
In this connection attention is directed to
the importance of setting forth in the re
port herein called for the exact amount of
clothing and ordnance articles which may
have been transferred on memorandum re
ceipt or otherwise by me respective com
manding officers of National Guard organi
zations to the 1st District of Columbia Vol
unteers. It being the purpose of these head
quarters to secure the complete re-equip
ment of the National Guard, it Is essential
to set forth accurately and in detail the
various credits that are due on account of
the emergency transfers of National Guard
property to the District of Columbia Vol
unteers in May last.
III. With a view to obtaining information
direct and in the quickest time possible of
certain conditions which have been infor
mally reported at these headquarters, the
inspector general will at an early day be
directed to make a special inspection of all j
organizations. To meet the purpose of this |
li.spectlon all company commanders will be
prepared to exhibit their property books, j
property, etc., and have ready- for the in
spector general a statement of such ob
stacles or difficulties as may stand in the '
way of that constant and progressive mil
ilary work at all times contemplated in the
National Guard. j
IV. Information having reached these j
headquarters that at least two organiza
tions of the National Guard are now. and
have been for some time past, without any
immediate commander, the attention of ail
concerned is invited to the necessity for
immediate correction of th.it condition. It
need hardly be stated that military admin
tration imperatively requires that no or
ganization shall at any time be left wholly
without a commissioned officer in com
mand. Indeed, mili ary usige and regula
tions have long prescribed as a fixed rule
that no company shill under any avoid
able circumstances ever be left without at
least one commissioned officer present with
it for duty.
When exigencies arise in a particular or
ganization to make that rule impossible,
it then becomes a duty immediately to as
sign or attach an officer of some other or
ganization for duty with the offlcerless on?.
To this end, if, owing to the fewness of
staff and company officers, it should be
come necessary for one officer to command
temporarily two or more companies, the
purposes of military aiiministiation at least
would be met, and the matter of reports,
returns, &o., would not be delayed, as at
present, on account of there being no offi
cer present to sign and submit them within
the prescribed period.
Commanding officers of regiments and
battalions are enjoined to inquire into the
mater herein complained of and to take
in.mediate necessary action in the direction
indicated..
By command of Brigadier General Har
ries. J. A. DAPRAY.
Acting Adjutant General.
N A V VI. rnoMOTIGXS.
Secretary Long Approve* an Opinion
That Will Cause Waiting.
Secretary Long has approved an opinion
of Judge Advocate General Demly to the
effect that where naval officers are pro
n oted for gallant service in battle no va
cancy is created in the lower grades which
are open to appointment in the usual
course. This is contrary to the position
taken by the navigation bureau, namely,
that in a case like that of AdmiralB Samp
son and Schley, who, for distinguished
services, were promoted from the gradt;
ot commodore that the number of com
modores might be increased to the normal
strength by the promotion. of officers in
the lower grades. Therefore these officers
must wait for their promotion until the
number of admirals are reduced to the
normal?six.

and very deaf veteran, testified to paying
Sio to Mr. Lloyd for drawing up the paper
and paying Justice A. E. L. Keese !Vi cents

placed the amount at 25 cents Instead of
5<> cents.

tured the proceedings with interruptions,
admitting the drawing up of the paper and
receiving the fee of 111', but Claiming he

JThe statement shows banks have gain*--!

the Increase of over half a milHon m c!N

The r illroad list showed a good deal of

I lief that it will improve as soon as the

notwithstanding the unsettled tone of the
week's market, the events of the meantime
have been in the main altogether favorable.
The money market hap mude further prog
ress toward lower tigures. and the l.at
opinion Feems to that the decline m
rates from now on will be fairly mpM, the
treasury outpour, the receipts of gold from
Europe and Australia being so heavy that
a decline In the money market to the low
level of lust Jun. is confidently expected.
Th"n, too, evidence Is accumulating . f the
breakdown of the Bryanite element in the
democratic party - for example, New Y. i k.
New Jersey, and Connecticut have all de
| clared against the Chicago platform, and
the thr.*e states mentioned art* generally
reckoned on as necessary to give the theor
ies of that element any weight In a na
tional convention. Republican <v?nveniion?
in the western states, such as Montana.
Idaho and Washington, also Indicate a
change of sentiment in regard to the free
coinage of silver.
On the other hand, the t>eare claim thera
will be some uneasiness a* to the outcom.j
of the congressional elections in the next
six weeks, as the election of a democratic
Ccngress would undoubtedly prove disturb
ing. They also say another point of possible
danger may be found In the approaching
deliberations of the peace convention iq
Paris.
