NEW YORK. August 1.T'or
President.
AUGUST GJI.LH A US.
Engineer, New York, as Proxy for
MARTIN R. PRESTON,
Now in the Nevada state penitentiary for
the legitimate exercise of the right of
self-defense on picket duty, and whom
lelicaey prevents from personally appearing
on the ticket.
For Vice President.
DONALD L. MUNRO,
Machinist. Virginia.
Martin R. Preston's persistent refusal J
to be a candidate for President lias compelled
the socialist labor party to take
his name from the bead of its ticket
and nominate another to run for him.
rhe new nominee, however, will go before
the public only as a proxy for Preston.
*
Preston, serving twenty years in the Nevada
state prison for homicide, was
peaceably engaged in breaking stone
when informed of the honor his party
nought to thrust upon him. Instead of
oeing pleased he became infuriated and
;ore his hair in rage.
He said it made him an object of threefold
ridicule?tirst. because lie was a eonrlct;
second, because he was twenty-five,
ind a candidate must be thirty-five, and "
bird, because he knew Eugene V. Debs j
ind did not wish to be a rival candidate
igainst him.
He threatened to get out an injunction s
:o prevent the use of his name, and so the I
national executive committee met last j
night and took a ballot for his successor a
on the ticket.
August Gilhaus received nine votes and '
lohn Hossack four. Gillhaus was there- '
tore declared tne nominee in Breston s (.
dace. He lives in this city and works as
in engineer.
The socialists, however, do no't intend 3
to give up Preston entirely. Their ticket I
will place Gillhaus first, but show that he ?
s a substitute for the other. t

Lloyds Finds Something It Will Not |
Insure. '
NEW YORK. August 1.?Another Brit- {
ish idol went by the board yesterday, fi
when it was announced that Lloyds. v
popularly supposed to insure against j
mything under the sun from twins and (
Central American revolutions to an out- f
break by Castro, had at last refused an r
insurance proposition in the dircctoire or r
sheath gowns. 11
L'oyds declare the sheath gown to be
beyond its scope, and that, properly. I
trade in thern is not a matter for insur- *
*nce. Therefore the effort of Blooming1ale
Brothers to obtain fio.nilfi insurance j
against loss Vtn a consignment of direc- '!
loire gowns lias failed.
"It is true." said Isidor Kalm of No. ^

Lloyds against loss on a consignment of
these so-called sheajh. or directnirp.
gowns and failed to get it. We have l?een f
stfter the insurance for some time, and
yesterday the Htm asked for a decision
one way or the other. We had to say
we could not place the risk. j(
"It is the first time I ever heard of '
Lloyds turning down any proposition. .
Only the other day they were insuring in 'r
great sums against Bryan's election. But P
they draw the line on these gowns on j.
the ground that it is not legitimate in- y
suranee. All insurance is speculation,
and the careful merchant tries to insure
himself in every way against loss, par- j
ticularly in lines where there is any con- j
siderahle element of risk or uncertainty. a
"The incident means nothing except s
that at last an American firm has found j
that L'ovds. after all. will not insure,
against everything under the sun."

The fishermen In the nearby waters of
he Potomac and other streams have
>een forced to lay aside their tackle for
he past two weeks, owing to the muddy
ondlticn of the waters caused by the
teavy rainstorms. Very little, if any.
ish have h?en caught around the Disrict.
and even at Great Falls the anglers
lave been catching only one or two after
1 full day's patient waiting. It is thought
>y the fishermen that the. waters .will
dear soon and that by next week there
will be some good sport.
The flsh are reported to lie biting quite
reely in the lower Potomac, and in the

sportsmen hoarded launches or other
raft -and are now casting, their lines In
he deeper waters of the river. The

Yacht Club, under th<* captaincy of
"harles M. Hawn. left today for Solonons
Island with a party aboard for a '
bur weeks' stay. Although the outing is
a ken for a cruise, the members of the
tarty took along a large quantity of
ackle and bait and will spend considerible
of their time in endeavoring to pull

Capt. Hugh Duffey. Fred Court, H.

Mr. George Lewis of tlie Union News
'ompany, one of the most prominent
tnglers in the District, witli a party of
riends. visited Black Ripples on the upter
Potomac recently, and made a very
air catch. George was the proudest of

ibout 10 o'clock George had a strike,
vhidi pulled so hard that he thought he

or a few minutes it was caught in some

Things became very slow after this,

and several yards of his line still fastened
in the month of the fish. He says
he would never have recognized it had
not the hook still been in its mouth.
George says he would like to hear from
others who have had such experience.
He says, however, he was somewhat
disappointed, as his "prize" was not as
larg? as he had first thought, but he is
much elated over his catch, and George
is a fisherman "right."
Some fish are being caught in the upper
Potomac and Shenandoah rivers near
Harpers Ferry. W. Va.. but they are reported
to be small.
Sycamore Island, near Broad Water, in
the upper Potomac, was a busy place
last Sunday and every day during
the past week, as a great many campers
went up last Saturday night and pitched
tents among the trees for a week's outing.
George Stansbury of Georgetown visited
Great Falls early in the week and is reported
to have landed five or six bass, but
they averaged only about two pounds.
A report from Syracuse. X. Y.. says
that Rev. F. Aked of Xew York yesterday
captured the largest fish taken out
of the St. l^awrence river at the Thousand
Islands in years when he landed a
thirty-two pound muscallonge. The struggle
lasted two hours and the clergyman
was completely exhausted at the termination
of the landing.
A resident of Harrisburg. Pa., was in
this city for several days the early part
of the past week and in discussing the
fishing near his home with several local
anglers said there are more black bass
fishermen In Harrisburg than anywhere
else in the country. One reason for this,
lie said, is that there are a great many
black bass there and the waters which
harbor them are responsible for about tnc
most killing bait that was ever pitted
against that hard-fighting member of the
finny trfoe.
Another fish that Is caught in that vicinity
is the stone roller, which is considered
the best bait for bass fishing. Early
in the spring the fishermen gather the
small stone rollers and hold them in reserve
for the bass fishing, which opens In
June. It is said that in putting one of
these little fish on a hook the angler must
go about the work skillfully or he will be
surprised by a stinging pain in his thumb,
which will sometimes shoot up his arm to
his shoulder. As soon as the fish, which
lf^ornething like a catfish, is held tightly
by the fisherman it drives its stinger into
his hand, causing an exceedingly painful
wound and a poison similar to and often
worse than that which accompanies a
hornet's thrust. Beyond the pain, however.
no serious consequences have ever
been known to follow the sting.
The amateur fishermen have been getting
some good catches of perch from the
wharves at Marshall Hall. River View
and other river resorts, but this variety
is also said to be small sized.
