ST. LOUIS, February l0.-The CHEFS
match was resumed again to-day un-
der about the same circumstances rs
before, with about the same audience
as on previous days. Mr.. SieinitE,
however, expressed himself as feeling
remarkably well, having recovered
from the attack of insomnia which he
had been suffering from since before
he left New York, and he thinks that
he shall remain in good condition
during the remainder Of the contest.
The game to-day is pronounced by ex-
pelts az the best yet played, especially
on the part Of Steinitz, who during the
last half hour OF the game played not
only brilliantly, but aggressively, and
deservedly won the admiral on Of the
spectators. Mr.. Steinitz having won
three games, the contest here is
closed, and will be resumed at New
0lltans in two weeks. Both players
will probably remain here week and
then leave for the Crescent City. The

A WICKED HOAX.
Reports of the Deptford Mob u Fab.
ricatIOn.

LONDON, February l0.-The reports
yesterday OF an outbreak in Deptford
proves to have been hoax. 1t turns
out that there was no disturbance
whatever, and that the story OF the
marching of mob to London is fic-
ton. The police, on hearing the ru-
mors, warned the shopkeepers to sus-
pend business, thus adding to the panic.
The rumors spread throughout Lon
don, and crowds Of people soon gath
cred, curious to see the expected
trouble. The people OF Greenwich
we've as anxiously expectant Of the
visit OF the mob as were the people Of
London. The scare originated in the
fact that a jeweler informed the police
that he had been met in the direction
Of Greenwich by body OF 500 rioters
who were smashing windows along
their line of march. With the excep-
ton OF some window-breaking in the
vicinity OF Cumberland Market, no. a
single case OF damage was reported
anywhere yesterday. The Daily Ne1oS
blames the police for no. keeping cool
heads. 1t says that as much harm has
been done by their timidity as by
their inaction on Monday. The con-
troll OF the police, it adds, must be
placed in different bands, as the pub
lie can never feel confidence in the
present administration.

ESPECIAL TO TEE APPEAL.l

WARRINGTON, February 10. - Mr..
Morrison informed the Ways and
Means Committee yesterday that be
would give them something interest
ing before very long. 1t was taken for
granted that he had reference 10 his
tariff bill, which is now nearly ready
10 present to- the committee. When
this bill is in. the committee will be-
gin its consideration, together with
the Hewitt bill, which is already be-
fore them. Some members OF the
committee express the opinion that
the bill reported by the committee
will be constructed odt OF both oil
these propositions, the Hewitt idea
being followed 10 the extent OF placing
a specific instead of an ad valorem
duty upon certain commodities of
common consumption which are now
about as cheap as they
are likely to get. According
to the ad valorum system the amount
of duty increases with the value OF
the articles, and it is thought that GER
tain articles of common use should be
exempt from this huctuation. Men,
bers who have been talking with both
Mr.. Randall and Mr.. Morrison cay
they think the committee can report
bill with which both will be satisfied
and which can pass the House.
THE TELEPHONE SUITS.
A meeting OF the lawyers engaged
in the telephone suits will be held
Saturday, and it is expected all the
details OF the suit will be arranged
early next week. The wishes OF the
majority will govern in selecting the
city in which the trial will begin.

The COuntry's Forests.

WASHINGTON, February l0.-N. H.
Egglestion, chief Of the Forestry Divi-
sion OF the Agricultural Department,
in his annual report to the Commits
sioner Of Agriculture, says that the
total area Of forests in the country is
4S9,2S0O00 acres. The value Of the
woods exported last year was $50, $685.
994, decrease OF So, 0l9,99l. The i'm
ports were valued at $l2,629,062. He
argues the necessity OF protecting the
forests and preventing reckless waste,
which is theScase in some OF the States
He says OF the use of woods by NJ
ways for ties and ether purposes, make
it an important question whether these
coRPpanies should not pl,Spt trees along
their roadways 10 supply t1eir needs.
Vast quantities of timber continue to
be stolen from lands belonging to the
United States, he says, and there is
reason to believe that persons not des'
titute OF responsibility are in collision
with the thieves. The review Of the
year he views as encouraging, the in
terest in forestry having increased
throughout the county.

"There was debate yesterday in the
