SEAL FISHERIES.
Olarovsky's Supposed Authorship of al
Adverse Report.

Olarovsky's Supposed Authorship of an
Adverse Report.
recent dispatch to this city announced
that an official report to the Russian Gov
eminent with reference to the seal fisheries
had just been published at ST. Petersburg,
and that in consequence of its pronounced
antagoniSm to American interests, it had
excited considerable feeling and Indignation
among the American Colony.
According to the dispatch the author of
the report was given as "Morloff, Russian
COnsul-General Mt san Francisco" but no
such person is or ever has been connected
with the Consulate here. This mistake,
however, goes for little toward multiplying
the story, as there is more than a suspicion
that NJ. 0larovsky, the ex-Consul, is the
person meant.
1t is known that he was to have made
report OF some kind upon the fisheries, and
as he was Consul here until some two years
ago, it is quite probable that he is the
author of the document, which it is feared
may have the effect OF depriving Americans
of whatever concessions they may have re-
ceived in the Kammandorsky Islands. No
Information concerning the report could be
obtained at the Office of the Consulate here.

HOBART ENGAGES HAvEY.
The weII-Known Trotting- Horse Traine

The Well-Known Trotting Horse Trainer
VIII Not Go to Germany.
Dick Harey, the well-knOwn trotting-
horse trainer, who made such an enviable
record last year with the supposed cripples
Of the Palo Alto Farm, putting the two
legged Electricity into a new and fast class,
has been engaged by W. >. Hobart for the
present ear. Stamboui, however, will not
be in Havey's charge. as Mr. Hobart had
made arrangements before engaging Hayey
to SEND the great stallion East this season
in Orrin Hickok'S care. As Mr.. Hobart has
only a lot of twO-year-olds now, Havey will
not be seen behind any of the stables en-
tries at the Coast meetings this year. But
this will not prevent Havey's valuable
services from being secured by other own
ers, who appreciated his merits.
1t was recently stated that Havey was
going to Germany to take charge of stable
there, but after struggling a week with a
German dictionary, he found the ia wohls"
TOO much for him and reluctantly concluded
not to go. In this determination he was
strongly seconded by Al Hall, Charley Nc

The Late DR.. schliemann.

Editor Call: In recent telegraphic CORE

martial music. The battlefield is shown by
night, and Paris is seen by lightning flashes.
Thunder, lightning and rain follow, and the
