THE LINGERING WARM WAVE.
1t is Here to Stay-Ti1 Friday Night;
Perhaps Longer.

The hot weather is here with q vengeance
and it has such strong grip on the commu-
nifty that it will probably continue for another
day. Yesterday Washington lay in about the
hottest strip of land in the country, the ther-
mometer here registering $50, that at Lynch
burg 92o, at Charlotte, n c., 9Oo and Au-
gusta, Ga, 92o. This morning there was no
diminution in the oppressiveness of the atmos-
phere; the thermometer cups logged around
their spindles at the signal Office in careless,
Indifferent way that betokened
NO SWEET BREEZEs
to cool the brow of the sweltering public, while
the thermometer laughed softly to itself, and
crept up ten degrees higher than it did yester-
although this lead was not kept up all day, the
increase in discomfort was sufficiently striking
Lieut. Dunwoody looked over the map this
morning and made little calculation, which
resulted in a conclusion that the warm wave
would last at least until Friday night On the
basis of this he issued
A''sPECIAL A PREDICTION"
as follows: 1.-The warm, fair weather which
now prevails over the central valleys will prob
ably be followed during Friday by cooler,
threatening weather and local rains; the warm
weather which now extends over the Atlantic
coast will probably be followed during Friday
night by cooler weather, with showers
He drew his hope of relief from the appear
ance OF a ''low, or storm, in Texas, moving
apparently northeastward Whether or not
this storm will effect the local weather condi-
tions is an open question, and the lieutenant
impressed The STAR reporter with the idea
that the cooler weather that he hopes will come
on Saturday is not altogether certain to arrive.

ROCHEFORT,s TREATMENT.
II Has Excited the Lasting Hatred OF
All Radicals-Othcr Paris Gossip.

LONDON. May e.-The French government
has gained the lasting hatred Of the radicals
abroad as well as at home by its treatment OF
Henri Rochefort. The delayed explanations OF
the matter have satisfied no one. and the gov
ernment stands in the unenviable attitude OF
having prevented father from paying the last
respects to the ashes Of his dead son Roche
forts request for papers allowing him 20 so 10
Bona, IN Algeria, where bis boy lay dead, was
tscitly acknowledged. but the permit failed 10
reach England, and Rochefort has taken pains
70 circulate an account of the affair throughout
Europe.
Though the Psrisians stoutly declare that
they do not feel sore over the action of the
soyerelgns Of Europe in absenting themselves
and withdrawing their representatives from the
exposition, there is no doubt that
THEY FELT THE SLIGHT GIVEN
in such an open manner very deeply. STILL 10
could barely be expected upon reflection, that
any royalty should exhibit an appearance OF
sympathy, even by proxy. with the centennial
celebration of an event that overthrew mon
archy In one country and has rendered all
thrones less secure ever since.
The indifference of the English grieves
Frenchmen more than the enmity Of other
nations, and il will be a small consolation for
the absence OF their majesties Of Russia, Italy,
Austria and Germany to announce the possible
visits of the king of Greece, the shah Of Persia
tne son OF tne khedlNe OF Egypt, ana nnally
and more provocative of ridicule than all, the
queen of Madagascar.
THE EFFORTS OF THE UNITED STATES
TO make the event an occasion for displaying
the friendly feeling of the one republic for the
other have been duly appreciated, and though
the display of her industries is hardly worthy
OF the great American nation. the friendly
intention Is manifest, and is received with the
greatest satisfaction.
The circular of an ingenious wine manu-
facturer assures foreign nations. in relation TO
the report of some ofhcious consuls that French
claret Is now mainly made from dried currants,
that this sort OF wine" is consumed altogether
by Frenchmen on account of its cheapness. and
not exported at all. which may be reassuring
or the contrary to the visitors to the expo
sition.
One of the rocks upon which the monarchists
hope the republic will split is the new military
bill, whereby theological students and young
priests will be in future
LIABLE TO MTLITARY..DUTY.
Many royalists will vote for the measure in the
belief that its attempted enforcement will
further intensity the i'll feeling held toward the
present form of government in the department
where the religious element prevails The
supporters of the bill, however, trust to the
knowledge that thousands of the sons of mon-
archists enter the seminaries TO escape military
service and rely upon the innate feelings which
they are persuaded animates every French
man to look with intense hatred upon a class
exempt from tolls and dangers to which lie
himself is subjected.

democratic platforms generally, and purposeIy
avoided reference TO the tariff. The majority
report was adopted by an almost unanimous

MISSING DIR. CRONIN.
John Fitzgerald Does Not Consider it
Mysterious.

CHICAGO, May a-John Fitzgerald, president
Of the Irish National league, arrived in this
city last night.
'The disappearance Of DR.. Cronin is not SO
very mysterious to me" he said. II would not
be surprised to learn that he was building up
new practice in some far-sway town. His love
for notoriety, believe, has conquered him.
The stories that his enemies in the land league
have disposed of him because he was aware
of certain questionable dealings regarding
funds collected to send to Ireland, is not only
absurd but wicked. He never collected any
money for the league, nor was he aware of the
dealings of those who did"
"How do you account for the story then?"
"All on account of the jealousy existing
among league members in Chicago. The night
of Cronin's disappearance his friends were too
excited to consider the doctors eccentricities
They thought of nothing but his enemies. and
their jealous disposition asserted itself by hint
ing that their enemies were to blame for
Cronin's disappearance. think he is alive and
kicking.

An Accident at the POst-Office Depart
ment Building.

J. c. Hogan, the awning maker employed by
the Post-Office department, met with a curious
accident to-day. He was standing on the sill
of window in the first floor, which is 10 feet
above the ground, when he lost his balance
and fell over backward, striking
his head on the ground. He was taken up un-
conscious and carried into the building, where
he soon recovered consciousness. He had a
slight bruise on his head and complained of
feeling sore, but in other respects he seems to
have escaped injury.
IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN, BUT WAS NOT.
The accident caused considerable excitement
about the building. 1t was said that man
had fallen out of the window of the
office of the Postmaster-General, and
some ingenious mind ventured the
opinion that the Postmaster General
had got into a controversy with Office seeker
and had thrown him out of the window. This
rumor caused no lessening in the number of
office seekers who daily fill the corridors.

The Secretary of State has received a dis
patch from Mr.. Merrill, United States minister
at Honolulu, dated April II, stating that on the
9Th of that month number of the survivors of

AN OIL EXPLOSION.
1t Results I'm Disastrous Confagra-
ton.

SHRUB OAK, N. Y, May 9-This village
was visited at late hour last night by
a confagration which destroyed almost
every business house in the place. At IL
p. m. an explosion was heard in the oil
room in the rear OF the oil and grocery store

few minutes flames burst out from both the
rear and front of the store and the Darrow
family, who slept on the floor above had mar
row escape from death. Miss Annie Darrow,
daughter of the owner of the building. was
carried out unconscious, but revived in the
open air. With the first intlmation of the fire.
somebody set a bell ringing and the entire
population turned out to fight the flames.
THERE is NO ENGINE COMPANY
at Shrub Oak, and the best the citizens could
do was to form bucket brigade, which was
done at once. Despite their efforts the fire
gained rapid headway, and very soon Darrow's
store was mass of flames. Mr.. Darrow, who is
about sixty-eight years of age, and afflicted
with heart disease, made frantic effort to save
his stock, and although he succeeded in getting
out small portion of it, it was probably at the
cost of his life. The losses are estimated as fol-
lows: F. C. Darrow, dry goods, on building
$4,000; ON stock "A, 500. Mr.. Lea. shoe dealer
on building 1,500; on stock $500. Robt Hem
