Chances for Shoulder Straps.

WAsHTNGTON, June &c. Three ftctor-.
apart from personal or political pulls. have
been potent in the selection of candidates
from civil life for commissions in the army.
The first group who have been notified
20 present themselves for examination are
nineteen in number. OF these six are
SON of army officers, namely, of Brig.
Gen, j. X. Brooke; Col c. H. Tompkins.
assistant quartermaster general: Gel.
Robert Williams. assistant adiutant-
general Col. Theodore Yates, retired; Col.
X. f. a. Crofton. 18th infantry; Cant
Fuger, 4th artillery. Next are to be noted
six candidates from the state forces,
including three of those lust mentioned
as beng sons of army officer. Finally.
there is a good representation from the
universities and colleges having army
officers detailed as instructors, and there
are also candidates from other institutions
OF learning, including one IRON the naval
academy.
There is something to be sad IN behalf
OF these classes OF candidates. Those
who have distinguished themselves for
military aptitude in the national guard or
at schools where the tactics are taught
aud p%racuced, naturally have advantage,
since the lieutenants from civil life. on
passing their examinations, may be
promptly assigned 10 duty with compan-
les aud accordingly should be reasonably
familiar with the drill and ]routine duties.
The sons Of regular officers may have III
herited the traits which nave made their
fathers useful and prominent in the mill
tarY profession, and must have become
more or less familiar with garrison life.
There are one or two candidates who
do not fall under this class and no doubt
there will also be another list prepared
after the present aspirauts have been cx-
amined. The vacancies present and i'm
mediately prospective number IOS and
exactly one. fourth of these are open to
civilians. Besides, from time 10 time

WASHINGTON, June 26.-The trade
dollar bullion. which is to be coined into
silver standard dollars. is stored in the
mints at Philadelphia and New Orleans.
1t results from the melting into bars of
the trade dollars redeemed at their face
value under the act of March 3. 1887,
The total number redeemed was 1863
066, a portion Of which have already been
coined into subsidiary coin. The act of
March 3, 1891, provided, however, that
the balance should be coined into stand
ard silver dollars only. The amount stored
at Philadelphia is 1885, 1926 fine ounces
and the amount at New Orleans, 3.O3S.-
S79 fine ounces. This will make in
all abont IS, las. 2Sl in standard silver
dollars, a net profit above its cost of a
little over $4,000 A large amount OF
the subsidiary silver and mint coins will
also have to be recOined at Philadelphia
during the same period. The demand for
dimes continues undated, and most of
the recoinage for the present will be of
that denomination, although twenty-five
cent pieces may also be coined at San
francisco. The coinage of dimes during
the last three years has been 3,l76,47I.
Ii is proposed to distribute this recoinage
between the minis at San Francisco.
Philadelphia and New Orleans. By law
the coinage of minor coin. one cent and
five cent pieces, is confined to the mint at
Philadelphia. This coinage has been very
heavy Tor several ytars past. During three
years the coinage of five cent pieces has
amounted to 2,O93. l6l. aud the coinage
OF one cent pieces 81, 1876, 364. 1t has
all been absorbed by the public, and there
Is every indication that the demand for
these coins will continue large for months
to come, and add considerably to the work
at the Philadelphia mint. Tie coinage
at the mlnts at San Francisco aud Carson
CITY, after July /. will be confined to gold
pieces and such recoinage of subsidiary
silver coin~ as mag be required on the

NEW HoRK, June 26.-On June Is,
when the steamship La Britagne OF the
French line, which arrived at her pier at
the foot OF Morton street last night, was
two days out from Havre, Joseph Four
riere, one OF the steerage passengers.
threw his 5-year old son Felix overheard.
The child wa lost.
Fourrlere's wife. an Is year-old dauEh.
ter and two sons, one lG years old and
one 5 years old. were on the vessel with
him. Fourrierc is a weaver who halls
from Petitmont, near Luneville in Lor-
raine, He was bound for Ohio.
On Sunday, June IA, he is said to have
drunk heavily OF brandy, and when he
awoke on Monday morning he was ugly
That morning the whole family was as
sembled on the main deck aft. Fourriere
and his wife got into a dispute. Suddenly
Fourrlere said that he wanted to ks, his
son. He caught up little Felix. printed
a kiss or two upon his cheeks and then
taking him by one arm and one leg,
swung him over the starboard side into
the sea.
A group of steerage passengers saw the
act, and a cry wss raised Fourriere was
seized and secured. Somebody threw a
life preservcr after the child. whom the
tog had swallowed up.
Inc Steamship was stopped aud Que OF
the hte0oats waa Pot out, manned bv an
officer and five men. She cruised around
for half an hour, but the search was
vain.
Fourriere was put in a straightiacket
and confined in the hospital under guari
lie behaved like a man OF unsettled mind
10 he afternoon a sense of what he
had done seemed to come to him, and he
wept bitterly. Only a few hours before
he bad said that he was master in his own
family. and he had threatened to throw
INTO the sea his wife and his other son.
Again he seemed To be overcome with
tear that someone would throw him over
board.
At the French line pier, Fourriere was
turned over to the police. Detective Gan
non and two patrolmen of the steamboat
squad took charge OF him. He yelled in
an unearthly fashion and struggled hard
when they attempted to take him away.
and they got a cab.
At the Charles street uolice station
Julien D~eyauassoux, a waiter, who had
seen Fourrieres act, went along with the
officers and the prisoner to the station to
interpret aud accuse Fourriere, who was
locked up.
Capt. Geo. Collier of La Bretague sent
word of the affair to Consul General Paul
d'Obzac, and asked for advice.
Capt. Collier said last evening that he
expected to take Fourriere back to France
when the ship sails next Saturday. He
was properly, Capt. Collier thought, a
prisoner of the French government. and
had been turned over to the local authori
ties because he could not very well be
kent aboard shin
The man is registered at the station
house as FourrIere, but Capt. Collier
thinks his name is Fcvs. IIo speaks the
Lorraine rotuis, a mixture of French and
German.

1t is reported that the observers at
Mount Hamilton have lately kept a sharp
eye turned upon the shadow of one of
the moons of Jupiter. This shadow
seemed double, indicating that the tiny
moon which cast it is also double. Since
the first hint of the discovery many OBJ
servations have been made through the
Lick glass, all tending to confirm the
original impression, to wit; That this
particular satellite of the greatest of
planets is double-a dot of a moon re-
