BosTON, June 9.-The second days ses-
sion of the Typographical Convention was
devoted mainly to speech-makIng, various
organizers of other labor fTaternities ap-
pearing in behalf of closer affiiatiOn. Presi-
dent Gompers of the Federation wanted the

The WORLDS FAIR.
The Horticultural Bureau Plans for
the California State Exhibit.

CHICAGO, June 9.-The talk for and
against the confirmation OF Maxwell as
Chief of the Horticultural Bureau kept a
couple OF the Directors busy to-day. The
California State Commission advocated
Maxwell'S cause and that gentleman himself
entered the lists personally. The opposi-
ton was voiced principally by committee
Of the American Association OF Nursery
men. The latter asserted that Maxwell
represented the wine and citrus fruit in
terests and implied that he was disposed to
slight the other departments Of horticulture.
MaXwelPs fate, 1t is expected, will be set
tied tomorrow
The California State Commission laid be-
fore the Ways and Means Committee their
plans for State exhibit. They wanted to
construct building Similar TO the old mis-
sIons and obtain the privilege of displaying
and selling fruits, wines and other products
OF a perishable nature. They represented
that they did not desire to enter into
lucrative business, but simply conduct
club which would pay the expenses of
continually replenishing the display The
rOmmi SsiOn was informed that the matter
would have to be settled the same as other
privileges, by the payment Of percentage
OF the receipts for sales. The use of State
building was matter for the State Com
mlssloners. If they wished to run reStau-
rant or saloon attachment III WOulu nave 10
come under the rules governing other
such privileges. The commission regarded
this as a success for their mission. The
scheme has caused great deal of comment
in fair circles. Il should think" said
President Palmer, 'that the mixture of the
religious feature and the liquor traffic
would cause a great deal OF commotion
among the church people; l AIN sure l
should condemn it. and l am not over sens-
tive on such Matters -
WASHINGTON, June 9.-DrectOr- General

THE ITATA'S CASE,
The Right to ConfsCate Her
Cargo.
A Former Decision by the Courts on the
Haytian InSurreGtiOn.
The Case Of the Tug Mary Ann HOgan-The
Vessel and Her Cargo Of Ammu-
milton COnfSCaed.
Special to THE MORNING CALI

New YORK, June 9.-The Tribune's
Washington correspondent says: 1t was
reported recently that some doubt was felt
by the officials here of the right of this Gov
ernment TO cOnfiscate the arms and ammu-
milton surrendered with the Chilean steamer
Itata, although it is admitted that there is
no question whatever as to the lbeling of
the vessel for the violation of port and neu-
tralily laws. The case of the tug Mary Ann
Hogan, however, seems to disprove this
theory entirely and show that the arms and
ammunition transferred to the Itata from
the Robert and Minnie are as clearly sub
ject to cOnfscati0n as the vessel itself. The
Hogan was purchased in New York by per-
sons interested in one of the Haytan in
surrections for use in transporting arms and
ammunition from this country to Haytian
waters. The cargo of arms was purchased
in Philadelphia and shipped on coasting
schooner ostensibly to Richmond, but the
schooner was to meet the tug off Newport
News and deliver the arms to the nsur-
gents. The schooner lay for nearly three
udyS dt tuc ItDueLFUuS awaiting lu0
arrival of the Hogan, but the tug had
been seized in New York harbor by
the Federal authorities and the arms had
finally to be carried on to Richmond
and discharged. The tug was libeled and
condemned in the Federal court in New
Y ork and the arms and ammunition were
confscated by the United States court in
Rich mond. In the opinions OF both Judges
it was held that the intent to make trans
fer at the rendezvous, although frustrated
by the seizure of the tug in New York,
made the whole enterprise an unlawful one
and subjected the cargo TO cOntiScatiOn as
much as if it had actually been transferred
TO Hayti 1t is generally expected here that
the judgment against the Itata Will be a
sweeping and decisive one.
