A Description of the Smallest State
in Europe and Its GOVernment.
Paris American Register


in Europe and Its Government.
Paris American Register.
The smallest state in Europe-one beside
which the principality of Monaco and the
republics of Andorra and San Marine ap-
pear great powers"-is Moresnet, which
Is situated between Verviers and Aix-la-
Chapelle. upon the confines of Belgium and
Germany, in a fertile valley watered by a
river named La Gueule, which runs into
lake upon the shores of which is all ancient
dungeon, dating back to the time of Char
lemagne. The reason assigned for the
independence of this district is that the
district of .Moresnet, which is only about
four square miles in extent and has a pOpu-
latiOn of 2 900. possesses some very rich
zinc mines and that after the battle of
Waterloo, Belgium and Prussia could not
agree as to which of the two should have
possession of these and, as neither would
give way, the district was by mutual con-
sent made independent. At that time
the district was very poor and there were
not more than fifty dilapidated cottages
and huts in it, whereas now there
are 500 houses and the mine yields
handsome return, SO that some
time ago it was thought that Germany and
Belgium would agree to swallow it up be-
tween them. But SO far the independence
of Moresnet has remained unimpaired-
though Germany and Belgium each has
delegate living in the district. whose duty
it is to settle any dispute that may arise
The administration Of the district is in
trusted to bun gomaster. who is selected
by the delegates of the two governments,
and who himself selects ten municipal
councillors. There is no elected assembly
in Moresnet, and consequently no division
into parties" while the inhabitants are ex-
empt from military service and pay only five
shillings per head taxation. The total rev.
enue OF the republic is rather under $500,
and this suffices to cover all the expendi
ture, including the school of the district
and the army" which latter force consists
OF one soldier, who acts as gendarme and
policeman as well. This soldier is often to
be seen in full uniform enjoying a game of
chess or billiards with the burgomaster at
the beer garden on the shores of the lake,
which enjoys the style and title of Casino.
The question as to the relations between
church and state does not give any trouble
at Moresnet, and as the mining company
pays the stipend OF the priest and the only
drawback to the complete satisfaction of
MOresnet and the inhabitants is that they
are not allowed to have postage stamps Of
their own.

Fire Destroys the Carriage shop of
james COnnSrs 81 son.

- q
An alarm of fire at 1:l0 p. m. yesterday
brought the fire department TO the extensive
carriage shop of James Connors & Son, PIG
South Main, which was found to be mass
of flame. In just 80 Seconds from the time
the alarm was sounded al the engine house a
stream was turned upon the burning building
from the hydrant at the corner of Main
street and Commercial avenue, and within
six minutes four streams were flooding the
building, but SO combustabe was the nature
of the building and contents. and so thor
oughlg mad the flames obtained control
that the entire structure was Quilted and
nothing at all was save1. The
building, a large three-story structure
used as wagon, carriage and
general repair shop was wood, and probably
valued at Sl.5C0; insured for $3.50 and the
stock g, 900. 1t WIS owned by James CoDnorS
& Son, manufacturers and dealers in car
riages and sleighs, whose loss, aside from
building, stock and tools, will reach between
So, OO0 and $1,000. They bad just sold their
paint shop to Il. J. Connor. who had no insur-
ance, and whose loss is over S400. The fol-
lowing gentlemen had sleighs or buggieS in
the shop Tor repairs and paint, which were
consumed: H. Capron, sleigh; H. c. Farmer
fine double carriage; Rohr j. Hanson, sleigh:

Thomas OlSOn, Cbffl8Se trimmer, who
rented q room in the shop, lost tools and stock
valued at $500. Richard Daw. carriage
maker, lost tools valued at $50. The prompt
action of the fire department deserves the
highest praise, and the unquestionable utility
of the water supply system ofthe city in case
of dire necessity was most thoroughly demon
strated Had the alarm been given earlier
different results might have been accom-
plished.

THE BURIED TREASURE
has not been revealed. The possessor of
the logbOok, however, who is a resident of
Oakland, has for some time past been en-
deavoring to translate its contents. But
his unfamilarity with maritime Spanish
and the badly preserved condition of the
documents has proved severe trial. At
ter severe and continuous study, however.
the following pertinent facts have been
evolved:
On June 16, 1869, the brig San Jose, with
materials for the establishment of the A lta
California missions, under command of
Jose de Calves, set sail for the port of
LorettO, Lower California. Besides the
usual articles used for bartering purposes
with the aborigineS. the vessel contained
10000 Spanish douboons and a large
amount of silver. The logbook contained
entries up to July 10, 1869, ard at that date
all records ceased.
The WI ter, in reading ''Palou's Life of
Padre Jun pero Serra," finds mention of a
vessel OF the same name as that gwen in
the logbo0k, VIII ch was wrecked some time
during the year 1863. but no mention is
made of the carriage Of treasure In fact.
1t would seem absurd that a vessel whose
