Progressing Very Satisfactorily.
WASHINGTON, February 2S.-Nothing
can be learned at the State Depart
ment concerning the fisheries ques-
ton, but outside the Department it
is very well known that this Government is
in constant communication with the Gov
ernment of Great Britain with view to a
settlement o. the Canadian fisheries ques-
tion, and is also negotiating with that Gov
ernment and incidentally with the Russian
Government for an acknowledgment of the
Jurisdiction of the United States in the Beh-
ring Sea.
In regard to the former question, it is un-
derstood that the negotiations have pro-
ceeded so far toward settlement on basis
satisfactory to both governments that the
portion OF the modus vivendi allowing
American fishermen license to purchase
bait has been extended indefinitely wiIhous
any documentary formalities.

HARRISBURG, February 2s. - Major
L. S. Bent, President of the Fennsyl-
vania Steel Company, at Steelton, which
employs about 1900 men, to-day, rid
icu!ed the idea promulgated by some
of the steel rail making companies
that the proposed reduction of the duty
from S17 to $40 would necessarily reduce
wages in their establishments or the stop
page Of work in them.
The steel companies in Illinois, he de-
clared, were fully aware that their business
would not suffer, and in making a cry
against tariff reduction were simply looking
out for the interests of the ore mines which
they controlled in this country, their
purpose being to retain the duty on foreign
ores.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH,N
NEW LONDON, CONN, February 2S.-
An interesting divorce suit, that of J.
Harry Holbrook, young society man of
Norwich, against his young wife, Minnie,
has been on trial in the Superior Court be-
fore Judge Fem for several days. The
couple were married seven or eight years
ago, and the young woman, it is charged,
has been exceedingly indiscreet for the past
four or five years. Mr.. Holbrook is great
great-grandson of General Israel Putnam,
the Revolutionary hero, and he wears Gen
eral Putnam's watch, and has the Generals
canteen at his house. His wife, who is
pretty and piquant, is the daughter Of the
late Captain Chester, of Groton.
The testimony in court was very damaging
to the woman. Mrs. Holbrook, pretty, petite
and tashionably clad. took the stand in her
own defense. The case was argued to-day.
and Judge Fem took the papers and re.
served his decision.

as the lords of creation know, and prob
ably a little better; and she has ar
rived at that stage of educational and
social development when she can sue
cesSfully command what she needs.
This is question which can safely be
left to the arbitrament of woman her
self. Prof. Phelps urged that there
was too much of tendency to the en-
ployment of female teachers. especially
in the primary grade. The strong will,
the positive character of man. was
needed to develop the minds Of the chill
dren IN these lower OF elementary
grades of instruction.
Prof. Grove,of Colorado, was skeptical
as to how they could possibly agree that
education of girls must be identical and
coordinate with that OF the young men.
DR.. HinSdale believed, in general edu-
was most desirable; that no intelligent
person would advocate the education of
boys and girls with any differentiation.
Miss Clara Conway. of Tennessee, ad-
dressed some very thoughtful remarks
to the council. Miss Conway evidently
does not believe in sending girls to
mixed colleges, but to those colleges
solely set apart for them. In the mixed
colleges there was lack of restraining in
f1uences, which was not healthful for
the young growing soul. Every girl
should be so closely and carefully di-
rected that her thoughts may be turned
resoIutely towards a full life, with the
freest possible play of her faculties. and
the consciousness, beyond all doubt
ing, that she may do without question
whatever she do well.
Prof. F. L. Sedan, of ST. Louis, for the
sake of family life as it stood before us
to-day, believed in identical co-educa-
ton of the sexes.
The president here pulled up the dis
cusSion, and Mr.. Hancock was called
upon to reply for the committee.
Mr.. Hancock declared it was merely
in general training the committee were
convinced co-educatiOn of the sexes
should be identical. He did not fear as
to the moral influence of co-education.
The experience thus far had demon
strated there was nothing to fear. In
twenty-five years, he dec Jared, the boys
would be kDocki ng at the doors OF
Smith. Wellesly and Vassar colleges, and
they would be admitted.
The report was approved and ordered
printed.
The council adjourned at IL o'clock.

subject under discussion of Yesterdays
session, but it was one of the highest
importance-"The Co-Education of the
Sexes" Though the discussion was
prolonged one, the general conclusion
was somewhat unsatisfactory. The
members of the committee instructed
to report on the subject
were unanimous in recommending,
in general training, the co-education of
the sexes; but the members who dis
cussed it, while supporting the report,
fl they had any sons or daughters, con-
fesSed that for their secondary educa-
tion they had not sent them to mixed
college. They were doubtful about
sending the girls and the boys them
selves kicked, or, as one of them put it
to a professor: "a fellow does not like
to be strained up all the time" There
was also decided feeling that 1t was
necessary special course should
be prepared for girls. Only one learned
professor had the courage to get up and
urge that men should be taught to mend
clothes as we'll as women; that it would
be helpful to both sexes if this was
done. But one lady took decided
and she was uncomprOmisingly opposed
to these mixed colleges. DR.. Hancock
was perhaps more enthusiastic over
the growth of public sentiment in
This country upon the co-education
of the sexes, and he even ventured into
,,rophecy-a most peculiar prophecy
shat twenty-five years hence the boys
would be knocking at the. doors Of the
colleges now specially reserved for girls,
and that they would be admitted. In
This discussion to the initiated it could
be seen that the young members we're
EatiOn of the sexes than were the older
members. The latter did not Op-
pose it; they gently insinuated that
there was something behind-what
it was they did not know
which retarded the consummation of
the end educationists had in view. To
sum up the discussions: The prevailing
yeeling was that in general training
5here should be co-education of sexes,
but, in the opinion of a few, special
courses shonld be provided to meet the
needs of the future men and women
the husbands and wives of the future
generations. Little can be said
of the afternoon session, beyond
what is given in the routine re-
port. The council accepted the
Invitation to visit Minnetonka and there
hold the concluding session for the day.
But when once the members got to the
lake all desire for business was blown
to the four winds of heaven, especially
when it was found that the gentlemen
who was to read the paper had missed
the train. There was some talk and
then a precipitate adjournment.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 5.-The steam
ship Mariposa arrived to-day, twenty
five days from Sydney and seven days
from Honolulu. Hawaiian advices state
that on June II King Kalakaua ap-
pointed John Adams Cummins minister
of foreign affairs. vice Jonathan Aus
tin, resigned; Godfrey Brown. minister
of finance. vice S. M. Damon, resigned;
Charles N. Spencer, minister of the in
terror, vice Lorin A. Thurston, resigned,
and Arthur P. Peterson, attorney gen.
eral, vice G. W. Hartford. On Friday,
June Is, Noble Widemann introduced
resolution in the legislature, declaring
that, whereas, it was apparent that the
constitutional advisers of the king were
irreconcilably divided against them
selves, and it being impossible to heal
dissensiOn in any manner except by
dissolution of the cabinet, it was re-
solved that the assembly mark its dis
satisfaction with the existing state of
affairs by declaring want of confidence
in the ministry. Previous to the intro
duction of the resolution Minister Aus
tin replied to the charges against him
III en0 uidJOAl1y iSPoi U VI 1nO Conn nnihAeo0O
on foreign affairs, denying that he dis
obeyed the instructions of the house to
lay before it the documents regarding
the proposed treaty with the
United States, or that he alb
straeted important documents in
relation to the matter, on the
plea that they were personal COM
munications. On the introduction of
the resolution, Representative Brown,
stating that there was a greater prin-
ciple at stake than the integrity of the
ministry, namely, that the minority
should not rule, offered amendatory
resolutions, declaring that, whereas,
Minister Ashford had advised the king
to refuse to follow the advice of ma
jority of the cabinet, which advice of
the attorney general the supreme court
passed upon and declared illegal and
unconstitutional; the attorney general,
however, perSiSting in his advice to the
king, it was resolved that such aSser-
tion of the principle Of the right of the
minority to rule and subversive of
constitutional, representative govern
ment, and that the action of the
attorney general was deserving of the
the house, which did thereby declare
its lack of confidence in him. A pro-
tracted and warm debate followed, in
which the attorney general. and some
members of the Legislature took the
ground that that body could get rid of
one member of the ministry only by
passing a vote of want of confidence in
the whole cabinet. The vote on Browns
amendment resulted "a to "a, tie vote
cf all of the elective members of the
house, including the president. The

WASHINGTON, July Sin a recen
report on the bills passed by the senate
some time ago in relation to the naming
of new vessels of war, the house naval
committee says it has come to the con-
clusion that the nomenclature employed
in the senate bill in designation of types
of vessels is not so distinctive and spe-
cific as to accomplish the object of hav'
ing the name clearly indicate tue char
acteristic of each vessel. For instance,
lhe designation OF a vessel as a "battle
Ship might easily embrace "armOred
coast-defenSe vessels" and under the
designation of ''cruiser'' we should
have, according to the latest official
classification, vessels running in
size and power all the way
from the $500 tons ''armored
cruiser" to the cruisers numbers
IL and IS of only 1.050 tons displace-
ment. The committee therefore amend.
ed the senate bill so as to provide that
vessels OF the first rate shall be named
after states of the Union, vessels OF the
second rate after cities of the United
States. vessels of the third rate aftel
important events or names connected
with the naval history of the United
States, and vessels of the fourth rate
after lakes and rivers OF the United

YOUNG VERSUS OLD.
Two Conflicting Elements in
the National Educational
Council.
A Progressive Spirit as Well
as One of the True Blue
Conservative Order.
In General Training the Co
Education Of Sexes is Rec
commended.
The Moral Question as to the
Promiseuous Mixing Of
Sexes.

There are two conflicting elements in
the National Council of education-a
young and progressive element and
staid and conservative element. The
result is that there are occasionally
some very lively passages among the
members. This has not been particu-
larly observable at the present meeting
of the council, but there are two more
days IN which sessions will be held, and
a conflict between the opposing Sec
tiOns is imminent. Evidence of this
was forthcoming in the little discussion
which occurred yesterday afternoon at
the Hotel Lafayette. The matter was
a small one, but to inside observers there
were strong indications showing the
strong undercurrent of feeling existing
among the members. A proposition
was made that the papers should be
printed and circulated among members
before they were read. The young ele-
ment strongly supported this; the older
element as strongly opposed it. The
score of expense was pleaded, but all to
no purpose. The progressive spirit was
uppermost, and henceforth the papers
will be printed before read. The
younger members claim that they
will be better able to discuss
the subjects reported on in the papers
presented and that there will be much
more valuable expression of opinion. 1t
Is only within the last few years that
these young members began to make
themselves felt, but they are gradually
leavening the whole lump and there is
scarcely doubt that the council Will
not give its Endorsement to any educa-
tional movement which is not in strict
conformity with the onward spirit of the
age. Old fogeyism is doomed. None
but the real live opinions of men
whose wits have been sharpened
by contact with the world need expect
to carry much weight with the majority
of the members in the National Educa-
tional council. There was only one
