CHICAGO EXHIBIT.
Major Ben Truman Spoken of for Gen
eral Manager.

There will be meeting of the execu-
tive committee on Wednesday 20 ins-,
ati11 a. m. at the chamber of CONNER
rooms in Los Angeles, when a general
manager will be chosen and steps
taken to have the exhibit placed in
Chicago by the middle of September.
Mr.. Truman is most anxious to have
the exhibit in running order as soon as
possible, as within the next thirty days
travel in this direction will commence,
and the display of fruits, vegetables,
and cereals will turn many an undecided
man in this direction. Major Ben
Freeman is the choice of the citizens
for the position of general manager.
He represented California at the
worlds fair at New Orleans, at the CEN
tennial at Philadelphia, at the exposi-
ton at Paris, and at London. No man
in the United States has had the ex-
perience of these matters that Major
Truman has. Himself writer of note.
and an old newspaper man, he is
known to all the editors of newspapers
in the east and west, and will be able to
do us immense good by getting eastern
papers to give us credit for what people
can raise here.

A Fatal Collision.
HAPPY MAJOR BoNEBRAKE.
The Banker-Statesman Returns From
the Scene of Battle.

/ His face was wreathed in smiles and
his eyes shone like a fresh minted
twenty, as he stepped from the train
yesterday on his return from Sacra-
ment. To get into Los Angeles after
having been in the capital city is
enough to make any man happy, but
Major Bonebrake's pleasure was purely
political.
"Had good time at the convention =?
Well should smile" and he did smile
as he replied to the HERALD mans
greeting. "Why, sir, everybody treated
us we'll, and we were very kind to our
selves. We got everything we went
after. The plan of action was as clearly
defined as the engraving on a treasury
note, and it was carried out in every de-
tail. Those San Diego fellows were
daisies, and so were the Orange and San
BerdOon county men. "But you should
have seen the convention during that
first ballot for governor. The excitement
was indescribable. All, it was great
tell you"
where's Judge Fitzgerald ? Has he
come back ?"
"Oh no, left him full"
"What ?"
II left him up there full as he could
be-"
"Why Major, Judge Fitzgerald never
drinks"
"Well sir, as l was saying l left him
up there full as he could be - OF en-
th .'da n, over the result Of our work"

ALASKAN FUR SEAL.
The Females Not RuthIessly
Slaughtered.
Such is the British View of the
POachers' Methods.
Salisbury's Aim in the Bearing Sea
Negotiations.
The Whole Correspondence to be Made
Public as Soon as Blaine Receives
Salisbury's Ultimatum.
Associated Press Dispatches. |

LONDON, August 15.-In the commons
tonight, Alexander Stavely Hall ques-
toned the government regarding the
position of the Boring sea negotia-
tions. He said, careful inquiry on the
spot had satisfied him that the methods
bywhich British vessels conducted their
fishing, led to no undue waste of seal
life. 1t was not the case that female
seals were recklessly slain.
Ferguson, spes king for the govern
ment said that no adequate judgement
could be formed on the negotiations or
or the diplomatic correspondence on the
subject until the house possessed Sails
bury's final reply, which could not be
put upon the table until it had been
presented to the United States secretary
of state. When the whole cores
pondence was published, he believed the
house would be satisfied with the spirit
and manner in which the negotiations
had been conducted on the side of the
British government. The aim of Sails
bury's action had been to establish a
closed time for seals by international ar
rangement, and at the same time to
prevent the further Selling of British
vessels and secure compensation for
seizures already made.
The under foreign secretarv's state
ment was received with marks of APP
proval.
Commencing on the Boring sea blue
book. the Times declares that it confirms
the conclusion that the conduct of the
American government in rejecting
Pauncefote's modus vivendi, in instruct
ing American cruisers to dismantle
British vessels, and in breaking off ne
gotiations, evinces arbitrariness and
contempt for reasons happily rare in
international relations nowadays.
"Salisbury's firmness," says the Times,
Twill show the colonists that the home
government is not, as they sometimes
effect to think, mere funnel for diplo-
matte notes."
The Standard says: The thunders in
which Blaine has been dealing. are the
most transparent and artificial kind
From first to last the faint of American
politics infects his negotiations.
