paper that Mr.. Blaine. not long after he
moved to Maine from Pennsylvania, became
connected In subordinate capacity. He was

work, and was expected to turn his hand

he determined to make it his life business.

He was interested in politics, but appar-
emily no more SO than any other newspa-

Mr. Blaine's salary, which was once
qised after his first employment on that
paper, was, when he left the paper, twelve
hundred dollars year. He thought he
should receive more; he said that 1t was
impossible for him to support his family
on that sum, but that he could do it very
nicely on fifteen hundred dollars year.
and save little each year. His employer
did not want to lose him, and at the same
time he felt that he could not afford to pay
a. much money as Mr.. Blaine wanted.
There was considerable negotiation be-

Mr.. Blaine determined to resign and go to
Augusta, where his wife's friends lived,

THE COAL INDUSTRY.
Amount and Value of the Product West of
the Mississinni River

Amount and Value of the Product West of
the Mississippi River.
WASHINGTON, March 23.-The Census
Office TO-DAY issued a bulletin giving the
history of the coal product in the States
west Of the Mississippi River. The product
in 1880 is shown to have been 1854, 324 short
tons, while in 1889 it had increased to 16,067,-
500 short tons. While the quantity produced
has increased more than threefold during
the decade, the value has decreased from
81 93 per ton at the mines in 1880 to 81 % in
1889. making the total value of the 1929 cut
put S24, 4l3, 262. -Four States and Territories
are now given as producers of coal, for
which no product was reported i'll 1880,
namely: North Dakota, Texas, New Mex
leo and Indian Territory. The aggregate of
wages paid was ST., 156. .395, and the number
of persons employed Sc, l65. OF the whole
product 10,051, ,229 tons we're mined in the
trans-M ississippi Valley, 1856 36S in the
Rocky Mountain region, and 1,179,903 on the
Pacific Coast. The value per ton of the
transmit ssissippi product was 81 AZ, of the
Rocky Mountain region 81 55, and of the
Pacific Coast region 81 %.
The report says that California coal is all
lignitic in character and generally inferior
to that of Washington and Oregon, and can
not compete with the better Goals supplied
by sea from British Columbia and Aus
tralia. The total product of California dur
ing the calendar year 1889 WAS 121 $50 short
tons, valued at S2SS, ,232. showing an aver
age price of 81 81 per ton at the mines. The
average number of persons employed dur
ing the year was 283, and the total wages
paid S169649. From the recently reported
discoveries of coal California may soon be
independent of the foreign product Fol-

Special to THE MORNING CALI

WASHINGTON, March 23.-The committee
appointed at the recent convention of the

upon President Harrison to-day and pre-
sentcd an address, urging the appointment
OF cOlored man OIL the Worlds Fair Com
mission, and also "a capable negro iurist to
fill place on the bench of the Federal
judiciary" The address says, in part:
"Our national progress has been rapid in all
directions. Many millions in money are
the value of the products of negro labor;
the wealth of many States has been created
by his toll, and the staples of vast region
OF the republic, which load our chambers,
bless our tables and furnish material for fac
tories to work, are the result of the patience
and Industry of the class i'll whose behalf
we speak. Believing in your sincere desire
to extend impartial treatment to all classes,
we respectfully invite your Excellency 10

OF this class, so peculiarly illustrative Of the

prominent position in connection with the

may prevail. We beseech you will consider
tine merits of number of able jursts, who
beiong to the people we represent, in the
Judicial appointments which we understand
will be made in the near future"
The President in response said that so far
as position on the Worlds Fair Commits
sion was concerned there were no vacan-
cies, and if one were to occur the alternate

however, to do anything, and proper man

OLD WORLD GOSSIP.
Emperor Williams New BOOk-LG0pOld'S
Visit to England.

New YORK, March 24-Ya'es' London
cablegram to the Tribune says: In addition
to his book on his Norwegian travels En-
peror William is at present having published
in England work on the life of his
grandfather, in two volumes. He has no
idea of appealing to the public, but Will
limit the edition 10 a few copies, which will
be distributed among the members of his
own family and the sOvereigns of Europe.
The King of the Belgians got through an
enormous amount of hard work during the
week he spent in London. The object Of
Leopolds stay was neither to arrange a
marriage between his daughter an the Duke
of Clarence, nor to make a tour of the
northern ports in Sir William McKinnon's
yacht; but it was simply to consult with
Lord Salisbury and others about the latest
phases OF the Congo enterprises, including
the attitude of America i'll regard TO the
proceedings of the Brussels conference.
Besides dining twice with the Prince of
Wales, Ouce as host and once as guest, he
received large number of visitors.
The funeral of Prince Napoleon was hur-
ried through with almost indecent haste in
order that no attempt might be made TO
carry cut his teStamentary ln1uncuonS
about civil burial. So great was the eX-
petition displaTed that it was not till the
cumbrous coffin reached the inner vault
al Superga that anybody recullected the.
necessity Of opening it for the identlhca-
ton Of the body by the authorities. The
scene was a grueSOme enc, as dec0mposi-
ton had already set in. The niche in which
the body was placed was Immediately
closed.
So much excitement has been caused by
the death of Prince Napoleon that the de-
mise of Princess Marianne Bonaparte on
the same day, almost at the same hour, re-
ceived comparatively little notice, although
her husband, Prince Lucien, the savant,
still lives among his pathological treatises in
Norfolk Terrace, BaySwater. The late
Princess was a woman endowed with con-
siderable strength of character. Sixty years
ago, as the beautiful daughter OF the sculptor
Cecchi, she was wOed and won by the sec
ond son of Prince de Canine, who took her
to live in the paternal house of the Bona
parties at Ajaccio The marriage proven un-
happy, ana forty years ago the ill-aSSurted
couple separated, the Princess Marianne
meeting the most tempting offers to consent
to a divorce with the words The name OF
BonapaTte is worth more than the largest
fortune" She never saw her husband again,
but continued to inhabit the second story
over the shOw-rOoms of the MasUn NaDO-
leon, where she died at the very moment
that the priests and politicians were squab-
bling about the dying heir to Napoleonic
tradition at Rome. Empress Eugene al
ways allowed Princess Marianne 800 francs
a month, and visitors at the MaiSon Ma o.
leon were accustomed TO speculate concern
ing the Identity of tic comey cid lady whom
they occasionally saw in the garden.

THE SUGAR TRUST.
Testimony Of Theodore Havemeyer Before ths
Senate Investigating Committee.

Senate investigating Commlttee.
New YORK, March %. Theodore T.
Havemeyer was before the State Senate
Committee, which is investigating the Sugar
Trust, again to-day. When asked how the
so-called trust was formed witness said that
in 1SS3 when his Brooklyn factory was
burned, he did not think it safe to rebuild
in this country, because of possible changes
in the tariff. After some consideration,
however he did rebuild, at a cost of S7,000,-
600, in eighteen months. They did not can
itaize the company at its full value. This
would have placed them at a disadvantage
as to their competitors, who were not
forced TO pay the taxes they were. The
capital was put at S500,Q00. Finally his
brother and himself decided TO submit their
interest and stock to the Trustees of the
Sugar Refners' Company, and received
therefor a certain amount of the Sugar Re-
finers' certificates of stock. He refused to
state this amount, and when asked the value
of the plant when they joined the
Besides the plants actual value it rep
resented the experience of generations and
a private patent process which could not be
valued. He would call the value OF the
establishment now at S15.000,000, without
considering the good will. When asked
what his reasons were for joining all these
other companies, Mr.. Havemeyer said: 81
wanted to put other organizations on the
same footing with US. We were able to re-
fine sugar ten cents q hundred cheaper than
they could, and we had been repeatedly ac-
cused of controlling the monopoly. These
people labored under the suDposition that
we were conducting our business Illegally"
Mr.. Havemeyer repeated continually that he
was anxious to give the committee the
fullest Information in his power, but the
testimony given was as near as he would
come to his real reasons for joining the
trust. In fact. he left it to be-nferred that
the reason which mainly governed him was
the general welfare of the public. The
committee adjourned until Saturday.
