Victoria, B. c., July 15.-The state
ment that two Canadian vessels which
recently sailed out of Maple bay were
armed with guns and would resist the
American revenue cutters, is without
foundation. The steam schooner Mis-
chief, belonging at Seattle, was char
tered to take supplies to the sealers and
bring down their catch. Messrs. Hall
& Marvin, who own seven out of thirty
vessels running out of Victoria, say the
reports were sent to prejudice the
foreign Office at London against the
cause Of the sealers.
eve are neither poachers nor
pirates," they stated. "We clear at
the customs houses and the officials
know our destination. If the bust
ness is illegal they should refuse
to give us proper passes. In case the
question is decided against the sealers
we will quit the business, but to do so
now would be to admit the right Of the
United States to the course it has
adopted"
The following vessels are in Esqui-
mault harbor: The second-class cruiser
Champion, 280 men; third-class cruiser
Espiegle, 130 men, and the gunboats
Daphne and Nymph, with complement
of 140 men each.
Captain st. Clair, of the Champion,
the senior ranking officer in the absence
of Admiral Potham, was seen, and in
reply to question said "The
reason of gathering here in such
force is to welcome Admiral
Potham, who succeeds Admiral Heneage
in command Of the fleet. can assure
you, on my honor. thatwe have received
no orders regarding Bering sea. As
senior officer of the squadron, have
opened every message cabled from Lon
don by the admiralty, most of them re-
lating to the stations of the vessels dur
ing the next year. The Espiegle will
probably 60 to Honolulu, the Champion
to Callao; the Nymph or Daphne may go
to Bering sea, but only for cruise, as
was done last year."

STATE BOARD OF TRADE.
California Exhibits Wanted at Eastern
State Fairs.

SAN Francisco, July 15.-At the meet
ing of the state board of trade today
letters were received from representa-
tives of the state fairs of West Virginia
and Indiana, proposing that California
products be exhibited at their fairs. A
special committee was appointed to en-
deavor to obtain proper transportation
facilities for the proposed exhibits.
w. H. Mills told of his observations
regarding the worlds fair at Chicago.
He considered that the nation made a
mistake in putting the cost of ten
million-dollar exhibition on one million
people. Chicago is now depending on
the receipts from the fair to reimburse
the subscribers. Dividing the place OF
exhibition at Chicago, he also considered
was mistake. 1t would be good idea,
he thought, to have. an exhibition in
San Francisco at the same time, and
hold out inducements for visitors to Chi
cago to come here.

The Squadron of Evolution.
The squadron of evolution, which
sailed from Rio de Janeiro ten days ago,
has not been heard from since at the
navy department, although Admiral
Walker was expected to stop at Per-
nambuco, 1900 miles from Rio. No
anxiety, however, is felt for the safety
of the squadron.
Did Not Take the Kings Palace.
Rear-Admiral Belknap, commanding
the naval forces on the Asiatic station,
has informed the navy department that
there is no truth in the report that he
took possession of the kings palace at
Seoul during the recent trouble in
Corea, and that all he did on the occa-
sion in question was to station troops in
the United States legation building for
the protection of American subjects and
property. They were subsequently
withdrawn as affairs resumed their
usual state.
The tOn-Breckinridge Case.
The house committee on elections to-
day heard arguments by Judge John
Mcclure, of Arkansas, Clayton's repre-
sentative upon the Breckenridge election
case. Judge Mcclure began his argu-
ment by attacking Breckenridge in reply
to certain statements made by that gen
tleman as exhibited in the record. He
charged that Breckenridge had sought to
incite his partisans to treat him (Mc-
Clure) as they had treated Clayton. He
resented the effort which, he said, had
been made to make the people of Arkan-
sas responsible for the series of crimes,
which, he sought to show, were part OF
a general plan carried out by politicians
and ballot-box suffers and stealers with
the deliberate purpose to reverse the
will of the people at the polls.

SACRAMENTO, July 15.-Isidore Cohen,
cigar dealer and lottery ticket seller,

He Occupies . Peculiar Position In the
AfYAirs Of Penitentiaries.
It may seem like paradox to speak
Of man who Is serving ont term In
States prison for crime as "trusty,"
or one who is trusted to do certain
things outside Of the usual prison labor,
and on no other bond than the convict's
honor, says the Chicago Tribune.
There are men Of intelligence wear
ing the ungainly stripes who look for
ward to time when they can begin life
anew and reinstate themselves in the
good opinion Of their fellow-men. These
are the convicts who are put in places
Of trust. A reasonable amount Of intel
ligence and an aptness for the work are
the requisites, both always based on
good behavior. A man is selected for
book-keeper or cashier in the warden's
office. 1t is not always that a compe-
tent man can ba found in the cells or
the workshops. Sometimes one Is
found who occupied place Of trust be-
fore he committed his offense. If he Is
willing and well-behaved he Is given
the place Of accountant and 1t is .
blessing to him to get 1t. What in
centive has he to make wrong entry
or to attempt any concealment Of funds,
or do any thing wrong whatsoever The
slightest inclination on his part to do
80 means q return to hard work in the
shops and loss Of time to his credit for
good behavior.
This Is true Of every trusty.
''How many have taken advantage OF
the trust?" was asked.
"None in many years." was the reply.
The hostler Of the prison was sent
there for life term for murder when
he was almost lad, ten years ago. He
takes care Of the horses, drives the car
riage to town and does whatever chores
he is told 70 do, and is sometimes gone
for several hours and has always re
turned in season. There is not dis
credit mark against him. He is polite
and correct. What has he to gain by
violating the trust reposed in him? II
would be the complete extinguishmcnt
Of the last spark Of hope which flickers
about o possible pardon, for under the
Bartillon system Of Identification II
vogue at Joliet his capture would bt
but question Of time.

HEIGHT OF WAVES.
New Light on Subject That Has Been
Disputed for Long Time.

New Light on n Subject That Has Been
Disputed for u Long Time.
We must confess that although we
try to adjust our minds to the assertions
and demands Of science, yet there do
come times when we feel that we know
better; and it is with great inward re-
joicing that we find the following an
nouncement in the Sailors Magazine,
which declares our former scepticism,
or heresy, orthodox after all:
"The height of sea waves has long
been the subject Of controversy. Emil
nent photographers have insisted that
storm waves were usually not more than
ten feet high, and rarely over twenty
when the conditions of the sea were
most favorable for wave development
Many traveller, reclining on cabin
transom, has looked up through the sky
light to see the waves rearing their
frothy crests, and wondering how even
. twenty.footer could show so high
above the great ships deck. Many o
sailor doused by an up-driving wave
while lying out on q topgallant yard
has, doubtless shaken his head incredu-
lously when told that the highest waves
were not above twenty feet, the rest be.
ing heel OF ship and dip Of yard. Now,
however, comes expert testimony to
prove that storm waves are often forty
leet, and sometimes from sixty to
seventy feet in height. In the recent
British scientific expedition some in
'tructive data were gathered by sensi-
tive aneroid barometer capable OF re-
sording its extreme rise and fall by an
automatic register. With sea not
subjected TO an atmosphere Of unusual
violence, IT indicated an elevation OF
lorty feet from the waves base TO crest.

Publishing House.

Publishing House.
For some years was the reader Of
manuscripts for noted New York pub
Usher, says writer in the Christian at
Work. I read the manuscripts first, and
II approved, passed them on to the one
in command above me. If he approved
of it, it was generally given to one OF
the members of the firm for final deci-
sion. One day came upon a manu-
script that was most vividly written.
It was story Of crime, and knew at
once that it would be great success as
q book. The price, however, that was
marked on 1t was almost prohibitively
high; still, I considered 1t my duty to
at least give those above me the chance
Of acceptance or rejection. So handed
the story to the man above me, whom
shall call Mr.. Brown. Mr.. Brown read
the story, and was as much interested
in it as I was. He gave it to the MEM
Der OF the firm, whom, for convenience,
may call Mr.. Smith. When Mr.. Smith
started reading the story his door was
open, but in a very short time the door
was closed and locked, and nobody en-
tered that room until the MS. was fin
ished.
When it was done Mr.. Smith came out to
Mr. Brown, and it seemed to Brown that
his face was CHASTITY pale. He said: "Write
a check to this woman for her MS"
Then, without word, he went himself
downstairs with the MS. in his hands,
and threw the copy into the furnace.
He had paid an exorbitant price, al
though the story was bya well-known
author, and he deliberately threw away
all chance Of returns. 1t turned out
afterward, as found out, that this story
was really the life Of friend Of Mr..
Smiths, and the motives Of the crime
which had always been a mystery be-
fore, seemed so probable that the MS
almost read like confession. 1t looked
to me afterward that, knowing the cir
cumstances of the case, the MS. had
boon sent into our particular publishing
house for particular purpose, and that
the price put on the MS. was simply sc
much blackmail, because, although the
story was never published, we never had
an inquiry as to why it had not beer
published.
