MOWN HAY.

In his Interview with the GLOBE this
morning, District Attorney HAY regrets
that Attorney General MILLER is absent
from his post at this time. This is a
very natural regret, considering the
close personal relations existing be-
tween the district attorney and his
chief. AS matter of fact, the attorney
general draws his salary to stay in
Washington and attend to business, and
not to be frittering his time away at a
seaside resort when public affairs Of
great Importance demand his attention.
But Mr.. HAY travels entirely out OF
his way when he reflects upon the abil-
ity of the solicitor general, and doubts
the superiority of that gentIeman's legal
knowledge over his own. 1t was a
cheeky thing in Mr.. HAY to raise the
question of Judge TAFT's age and OF
his limited experience at the bar. Judge
TAFT is Mr.. Hays superior, and as
such is entitled to due respect. His IN
structions, whether right or wrong,
ought to be obeyed without murmnrfng,
and certainly without questioning his
capacity to interpret the law.
Mr.. HAYS own statements prove him
to be unfit to conduct the prosecution.
A subordinate who is disposed to find
fault with his superiors. and is continu-
ally on the hunt for pretext to evade
duty. IS not safe persen to be intrusted
with a command.
Mr.. HAY has been quoted correctly
because he has been quoted literally.

NODuTY NEEDED.

The Black Hills senator is understood
to be pertinaeious and persistent in his
demand for duty on tin that will
pretty much exclude importations from
abroad, This will, of course, be added
to the cost of all tinware, and further
weight down the industries dependent
upon that metal. There is abundant
evidence that there is no other occasion
for this tax than to enlarge the profits
of wealthy syndicate, and incidentally
show the fidelity of legislative agent.
When DR.. CARPENTER was at the head
of the school of mines in the Black
Hills, he made complete and exhaustive
tests of the cost of developing tin from
the Harvey Peak mines. He did this
on an ample scale, and for the express
purpose of determining how far it could
compete with the foreign mines.
Labor and living were exceptionally
high in the Hills, and still he found that
on the local basis of prices tin could be
produced there at $3.50, taking the
present rates of mining labor, less than
in Cornwall, from the official figures
given by the government. The state
ment has been made even stronger than
this in the interest of the mines, and it
is claimed that ton of Black Hills tin
is worth more than ton of the foreign
article. Railroads are being rapidly
pushed into the mining region, and will
stln further reduce the cost of produc-
ing the tin. The ore should be treated
as raw material, and tin plate also, to
be made as cheap to the industries as
possible. The policy, however, is to
shut out competition for those who have
friends on the tariff committees.

England and Germany Have
Agreed to Divide Africa.
LONDON, June 27.-In the house of
commons to-day Sir James Ferguson,
under foreign secretary, replying to Mr..
Blame. admitted that declaration had
been exchanged with France in March,
1862. by which France and England en-
gagged to respect the independence of
the sultan of Zanzibar. Referring to
the report that the agreement with Ger
MANY included secret clause providing
for an alliance with that country III the
event of war, the under foreign Secre-
tary denied that the government had
undertaken any new obligation toward
Europeau powers either in the present
agreemento or otherwise. He further said
that negotiations with Germany still pro-
ceeded regarding Walfiseh bay and
Damaraland. A slip of territory only
twenty miles wide would give the Ger
mans independent access to the water
way of tine Zambesi England was re-
ceiving recognition of sphere OF inf1u-
ence over vast regions, and she ought
not to be jealous concerning the portion
that remains. Alfred Pease asked
whether there was any truth in the re-
pOrC tndt Tic SoNeIHIhoHt was ulopooCu
to eede to France the island of Domin-
lea, one of the Leeward Islands. in ex-
change for the remuneration by France
of all rights in the New Foundland fish
cries. The under foreign secretary said
the report was utterly baseless. w. e..
Smith, the government leader, moved
that a committee of twenty-one be APP
pointed to consider how to shorten the
procedure on partly discussed bills.
Mr.. Labouchere proposed that the OPP
position have larger representation IN
the committee. He pointed out that
the government had twelve supporters
on the committee, while the opposition
had only nine. Mr. Smiths motion was
carried by vote of 273 to 163.

TOXIC, Japan, June 27.-The Turk
jsh training frigate, which for the last
six months has been Oh its way to
Yokohama, with Osman Pasha, grand
son of the great Osman, in command,
as rear admiral, and Mehmed
Bey as flag lieutenant. bearing
the decoration for the mikado, from the
Sultan. has arrived in Port Ertougral.
She met with many miShapS on the way,
and for a time it was reported she
would have to put put back to C0nstan-
tinople. She went into dry dock in
India. and has worked around slowly to
the Japanese islands, where she will
have to lie until the northeasterly
winds sheer around, as she could not
weather them. Next to the old Mono
cacy, of the American fleet, she is the
best specimen of obsolete cruiser on an
Asiatic station. Starvation seems to be
drawing neurer to the poor people of
the capital, and every day brings
more narrowing tales of SUI
fering than its predecessor. The
price of rice has not come down, and
there are no more promising prospects
for full crop this year. Miss Anne
Brewster, a society girl of New York,
who came out to visit her brother-in-law,
Secretary i. L. Reamy, has gone
on pleasure trip to Siberia,
going from Nagasaki to Vlad-
livestock. 1t is the first case
know OF a young American lady going
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1890-06-28

to the Siberian frontier except for mis-
sionary work. Since the students of
the imperial university who attacked
Rev. Wimbrie, of New Jersey; went
personally to his house and apologized
for the outrage, nothing further will be
heard of the matter. The foreign press
of Japan are hearty in their cOndemna-
ton of the affair and are GIamorfng for
the expulsion Of the students impli-
Gated. The missionary is shielding
them as much as he can, and it is to his
influence that the continuance OF the
culprits in school is still due. No other
foreigners have been molested, and the
trouble is practically at an end.
. The murderers of Rev. Mr.. Large are
still unprecedented. The third ma
tiOnal exhibition of Japan has proved so
prosperous and such a drawing card to
the capital, that it will not close until
July 1. The Fourth of July will be Gel
ebrated at the American legation by
dinner given to the imperial
princes and other officials by
! United States Minister Swift.
There will be fifty covers laid. A
photograph made by Edison expressly

was in the field gathering up every
thing; and the assurance that its pro
duetion is always reliable is worth
much. 1t may be that circumstances
have had most to do with its prices. Be
the huge cormorant as worthy of de-
nunciation as it may, there is room for
some pride in the surprising sue
cess and unbounded enterprise it
has exhibited abroad. The recent
report of the United States con-
sui at Rotterdam gives in detail its
operations in Western Europe. 1t has
mammoth establishments at Rotter-
dam, and will give an exhibition of
American enterprise in piping the Oil 200
miles to Berlin. The gratifying feature,
however, is that it has nearly displaced
the Russian article in all the great
marts, being so superior in quality that
it sells 10 per cent higher, and the Rus
slams try to palm off their stuff in Amer
lean barrels. In five of the German and
Dutch ports 100000 barrels of Ameri-
can oil have been sold the past year to
half-million from Russia, and the lat
ter will be entirely crowded out. 1t is
of interest and gratifying to- see any
American product taking possession OF
the markets of other nations.
