WAsHNGToN, October 21.-In the Mari
time Conference today the question O
discontinuing the use of colored lights
came up and was freely discussed. A
resolution was adopted that there
should be no change in the masthead
and colored lights as at present used
This was the first definite vote taken by
the conference on any question.
DR.. Sieveking, OF Germany, in speech
OF some length today, advocated that in
a fog vessels be instructed to 20 at tor
speed. In the course OF his remarks he re-
ferred to the fact that the courts had con.
structed the term moderate speed" tc
be relatively only very slight reduction
and in other decisions to hold thai
moderate speed" meant enough for the
vessel to hold her steerage way.
Mr.. Goodrich said the determination
or definition by the American and Eng
lish courts that moderate epeed" meant
such . rate as would enable vessel to
avoid doing damage after the discovery
of q vessel approaching her, should be
observed, and the safest rule of all is to
90 as elowly as is consistent with the
maintenance of the vessels steerage
way.
Mr.. Hall said he should be sorry tc
see the rule IS at present constituted
abolished. Captain Mensign insisted
that it was safer to run fast than slow in
fog; that in case danger of collision
was discovered, the captain could get his
vessel out of the way more certainly al
high speed than at slow.
Article 13 was passed.

A DISHONEST PENslONER,
And the Trouble He Has CAUSED
by His knavory.


WASHINGTON, October Fl IAN interest.
ing case came before the Treasury Depart
ment Saturday. 1t related to draft
recently submitted for payment. Several
months ago q pension agent ct San Fran
cisco issued check in favor of q PEN
sioner, but neglected to fill in the amount.
The not over-scrupulous recipient, how
ever, did it for him, but instead of put
ting in the proper amount (about $18),
filled it out for something over 81 200.
He presented it at a bank in Nevada,
properly indorsed, and as there was
apparently nothing wrong about the note,
received payment for it's face value.
In the regular course of its business
the bank transmitted the check to Wells,
Fargo d Co., it's San Francisco cores
pondente, for collection; they presented
IL to the Assistant Treasurer. That Off
cial paid it ON the strength of the en-
dorsement of Wells, Fargo & Go. The
fraudulent character of the check was
discovered soon after, and the Assistant
Treasurer made a demand upon Wells,
Fargo & Go. for the payment of the
money in excess of the real value of the
check. They denied all responsibility
in the transaction and refused to comply
with the demand.
Subsequently treasury draft in
favor Of Wells, Fargo & Go.
for an amount much greater
than that involved in the other trans-
action came into the Assistant Treas
urer's possession, and in making the
payment upon it he deducted the amount
Of the other payment of the pension
check.
Wells, Fargo & Co. naturally objected
to this, and having unsuccessfully tried
all other means of compelling
the Assistant Treasurer to deliver
to them the full amount of the draft,
at last instituted suit for its recovery.
This suit is now pending, and applica-
ton was made to the Treasury Depart
mont for the original draft for use as evil
dence on the trial. After some delibera.
tion the Department concluded to gran9
the application, and yesterday the draft
was mailed to the Assistant Treasurer
with instructions to insure it's safe return
to the Department at the conclusion of
the trial. Nothing is known as to the
whereabouts of the dishonest pensioner.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1889-10-22

seems to be no doubt, as indictments are
found in nearly every term of court held,
and number of convictions have been
secured. He states, however, that he
has reason to believe that a divis-
ion of sentiment is springing up
in the church on the subject of the prac-
tice of polygamy. Under the constitu-
ton polygamy will be prohibited, and
the insertion of this provision may be re-.
garded, the report states, as an express
sion of the voice of the people of the
Territory on this subject.
The allotment of land to Indians, under
the Severalty act, is progressing salts
factorily and with little opposition on
the part of the Indians.

ASSOCIATED Press Dispatches TO the HERALD.
WASHINGTON, October 81. - Lewii
Wolfey, Governor of Arizona, today sub
mitted his annual report to the Secretary
Of the Interior. Concerning the Nor
mons the Governor says:
"Arizona had q law diDfranchisini
all who practiced, taught or encouraged
polygamy. The first legislative &C
signed by my predecessor was the re-
peal of that act. I request and urge
Congress to repeal the repeating act, anG
re-establish the above Territorial law
Politically the Mormons of Utah seem tt
have adopted the plan of sending colo
nies, or s'stakes," to the surrounding
Territories in sufficient numbers to form
the balanns of power between the two
political parties. They are willing te
trade with one or the other, but remain
true only so long as the interests of the
church are best served. The church ID
their law, and all other law is subservi-
ent to the orders of the church. The
Mormons in this Territory number about
8,0O0."
The total taxable property of the Ter
ritory ID given at $26, ,575, 1892; total Terri
torial indebtedness, $4,000; total
Territorial county and city indebtedness,
about 1902 $40.
The Governor requests that Congress
be asked to pass necessary act allowing
the Territory to issue longtime bonds
say fifty-year bonds. He says he is a.
sured that these could be negotiated at
probably four per cent. certainly not to
exceed five per cent.
The acreage of land entries for the
year aggregates 500,79 acres, valued at
$90,0S1.
The Governor urges that the Atlantic
and Pacific railroad lands be surveyed,
as failure 80 to do virtually withdraws
from settlement one-hRlf the entire belt
, Of land 100 miles wide by the full width
Of the Territory, except the small portion
now surveyed.
The Governor says that except the
shipment of ore, Arizona cannot be said
to have any export commerce, not that
she is without articles to export, but for
the reason that railroad transportation
rates are too high to admit il. "We
need" he adds, "and must have, two
lines of north and south railroads to con-
meet with the two east and west trans
continental railroads, and these two
north and south roads restricted to mod
crate rates."
Agriculture is in a fairly prosperous
condition. Stock-rsising is one of the
leading industries. While the price Of
beef has steadily declined, the increase
in tho number of cattle has been so great
that the assessable value of the aggre.
gate herd is we'll sustained.
Mining has had healthy growth dur
ing the last year. The mineral pro-
ducts for the year 1883 are given as fol-
lows: Copper, 81, ,797 300 pounds; gold,
$3.50, 900; silver, $500, 600.
With better railroad facilities, the
Governor thinks the mineral output
would be greatly increased. The school
system in Arizona, the Governor says,
is an excellent one. and is being liberally
and fairly carried out.

Secretary Tracy Abolishes Several
Lucrative Sinecures.
WASHINGTON, October 21.-Numeroue
applications have been made to the Sec.
retary of the Treasury for the position oil
Inspector of Foreign Vessels at different
ports in the United States, and upon OK
animation of the subject, the Secretary
has found that the controlling reason in
most instances for the anxiety to secure
these places is the limited amount OF
work the inspectors have had to perform.
Several of these places have for q mum.
Der of years past been sinecures, as
not more than a dozen foreign vessels
would, during q year, take advantage Of
the law permitting their examination by
officers Of the United States Government.
The Secretary has therefore decided to
dispense altogether with the services Of
an Inspector Of Foreign Vessels at Phila.
delphia, New Orleans and San Francisco,
and to have what slight duties they
would be called upon to do, performed
by the local inspectors. The salary ol
the inspectors who have been dropped
was $4,000 q year.

WASHINGTON, October 21.-George L.
Shoup, Governor of Idaho, in his annual
report, gives the important provisions o.
the constitution which will be submitted
to the people for their adoption at an
election to be held November 9Th. Idaho
he states, claims all the essential qualiti'
cations necessary to assume the dignity
and responsibility of Statehood-a steady
growth in population and taxable prop
erty and large increase in productions,
the yield in valuable metals nearly
doubling that of last year. All these
show, the Governor thinks, that Idaho ID
in the line Of progress.
The report states that there are over
25 900 people in Idaho who are adherente
of the Mormon faith. The population oi
the Territory is 113, Ut. Polygamy, how
ever, is not at the present time openly
practiced in the Territory, but the Gov
ernor adds that Of the fact that it il prac-

Carving Zulu Babies. :

When Zulu child is first born it is of
light hue, and does not get the darker tint
of the parents for some years, says Draks's
Magazine. AS soon as it enters the world
the medicine man" is sent for. Contrary
to the custom of the civilized "medicine
man." he takes no notice whatever of the
mother, but devoting himself entirely to
the child, makes a number of small gashes
in various parts of the poor infants body,
into which he rubs medicine and goes on
his way rejoicing, returning next day to
make the incisions deeper and rub mere
medicine into them. This second operation
being performed the child is washed and
dried by being moved around in the smoke
of a wood fire, eventually being daubed all
over with red paint, which is renewed as
fast as it wears off, for period of several
months. The child is not allow any natural
food until the visits of the amedicine
man" are ended this formality often caus-
ing serious consequences to the offspring),
and few days after the mother will be
seen about her work as usual with the little
one strapped to her back.

ROUGH ON NOVELIsTS.
A Score of Writers of Fiction Are Ruined
by New York Failure

New YORK, October l0th.-The recent
collapse of the big publishing house of Bel
ford, Clarke & Co. with its branches in all
the principal cities of the United States,
means a great deal more 10 a certain class
of authors than was hitherto known. The
school of novelists of passion is badly de-
moralized. a fortnight ago the school was
in the most tourishiDg condition imagin-
able. The school has been wiped ont al
most completely in that one mighty tumble
that shattered the business of the pub
fishers.
Edgar Saltus, for instance, is one of the
most prominent members of the literary
school referred to. His THE Pace that
Kills" was one of the latest works pub
lished by the firm, and it came out not
much more than two months ego. 1t is
said that over 25, 000 copies of the book had
been sold in this interval, and he has lost
nearly $500 in cold cash in consequences.
Then comes Mrs Ella Wheeler Wilcox,
the recognized pOetess of passion. Belford
had just made arrangements to introduce
her Poems of Passion" into England 1t
is thought that she must have lost large
sum.
Edgar FawCet', John Habberton, Arthur
Gundry, Minna T. Irving and others are
also heavy losers by the failure The fact
that BelfoTd, Clarke II Co were the only
firm in this country which published the
class of works referred to makes the hard
ships of authors all the more severe
tits estimated that the liabilities of the
bankrupt patrons Of the passionists are be-
tween $500 600 and 100000 but the loss of
the Dovelists themselves through the fail
ure are not SO easily ascertained Some
say they must have lost fully $4,000 alto
gether in royalties due on their works,
while others give the figures as consider
ably lower
