Balfour Speaks Of Observations While on His
Recent Tour
LONDON, Nov. 19.-Balfour, in speech
last night at Grimsby, declared that his tour
in Ireland had no political object, but lie
was merely in quest Of information. AL
though he had been attacked by the Irish
party and press, he had no reason TO COM
plain of his reception, but every reason to
feel gratiiei.
After eulogizing the attitude of the priests
and denying that he attempted to bribe
them, and condemning the course of the
Dublin politicians. he said his tour left the
impression Oh his mind that the districts
visited were net congested in the sense If
being crowded; but the people appeared
unable TO draw from their holdings IL suffi-
cient livelihood. There was not the wear
ing and incessant toll for wretched pit
taDce, such as was seen in the industrial
centers OF England and America, yet the
peolle were always so near the brink of
want that serious failure of the potato
crop might make imperial assistance neces-
sary. If the peasants condition was to be
btttered he must be made better farmer
and better fisherman. Therein lay the
only permanent remedy,

NEW YORK. Nov. 19.-It is learned that
the cracks, which appeared in the carriages
of the six-inch guns on the cruiser Philadel-
phia during erecent trials, will necessitate
considerable delay in her starting out. The
cracks are known as ''heat cracks" to foun-
drymen. That these were known of before
the guns were mounted on the ship is EVIL
dent from the fact that they are shown to
have been calked over and sal-ammoniac
rubbed in. This rusted the steel, and
elfectually concealed the defects until the
shock and strain Of firing opened them. The
carriages are cast in one piece, and it lis diff
fcult to see how the defects can be reme-

Its Recommendations.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-The committee
appointed to examine the suggestions made
by the International Marine Conference has
made lengthy report to the Secretary of
the Treasury. The committee does not
agree with that portion of the report Of the
delegates which recommends the appoint
ment of board of five experts in matters
pertaining to the merchant marine and an
admiralty lawyer, etc. The objection
to the five experts is the fact
that such appointments must necessnri-
ly be made from interested persons,
and therefore, as they would he obliged to
pass upon matters in which they themselves
are interested. it would be scarcely possible
to secure satisfactory Board of Experts or
associate members. The appointment Uf
an admiralty lawyer, as prnposed, does
not seem necessary. The bill submitted
says there shall be in the Department of the
Treasury a Marine Board to consist of one
of the Assistant Secretaries of the Treasury

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-Andrew Cald-
well, the Special Land Office Agent, who
was sent from the Visalia Land Office, has
filed his report with the Land Office on the
mammoth trees of California. He finds that
the Land Office plats on the subject of man.
moth trees are not always correct in locating
the sequoias, but by interviewing old set
tiers, miners, mountaineers and local sur
veyors, he secured information which great
ly aided him in his work. The greatest
body of sequoias, he says, are TO be found in
Townships 10 and 16. Range % east, and
Townships 10 and IL, Range 80 east, Mount
Diablo meridian.
He says: 1.-THE Kaweah Cooperative
Colony Company are making squatter claims
on much of this section, and unless it is
stopped there is danger o. their making en-
tries of all the desirable lands upon which
the great trees are standing. 1t would be an
irreparable loss if this one large and perfect
body Of sequoias gganteas fall into private
hands and be cut down or otherwise de-
stroyed simply 10 gratiiy and possibly en-
rich the leaders of this body of misguided
enthusiasts" A saw-mill in the vicinity, lie
says, is creating much havoc with the for
ests thereabout.
A newspaper giving a short paragraph
about the discovery OF a group Of trees,
some of which were over 600 feet high, said
to have been discovered in Pierce County,
Wash, caused Commissioner GRAFT to detail
Special Agent Mosier TO investigate the
story. He went to the locality named and
found the author of the newspaper story,
who said that the trees we're in a remote
canyon in the southeast corner of Pierce
County. Some of the trees, he said, were
400 feet high and many of them were
thirteen feet in diameter. Deep snow pre-
vented Agent Mosier from penetrating this
mountain region, which has never been ex-
.plored by white men.
1t Isl hoped by the department that some
means may be devised by which samples of
these trees may be shipped to the Worlds
Fair at Chicago. OF course their transporta-
tion by rail would be out of the question,
and the only other way would be to take
them by ocean around the Horn and up
through st. Lawrence River and the great
lakes or else up the Mississippi River to
Rockford, ILL.,, and thence to Chicago over
the prairie country.
