Would IL BE a surprie ,

IL there is not more amicable
feeling and better understanding
between the Cleveland and the Hill
factions of New York it would not
be a surprise if the minds of the
leaders of the party should turn to
Maryland and select Senator A. z.
German as the standard bearer In
the next Presidential contest. His
firmness, caution and courage, his
equsnimity under the most press
ing and trying OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
united with his unfiinching, but
conservative democracy, have made
their impress upon the country and
made and marked him q great man
and party leader, both in and out
of the Senate chamber.
For these reasons his former enc
mica in this State are his ayowed
friends to-day, and he is without a
rival as his own successor in the
United States Senate, after SER
vice of two terms.
Occupying this exceptional posi-
ton at home, recognized as the
leader of the Democratic party all
over the country, it would not be
surprise if the party IN its National
Convention to nominate a candi.
date for the Presidency when it
meets should declare that Arthur
Z. Gormaa, of Maryland, is alike
acceptable and available to both the
Cleveland and Hill factions and
every section of the country.
Ii so, Maryland would furnish in
the person OF Mr.. German the next
President'of the United States, and
thus occupy the proud distinction
not only OF giving to the country
President, but one whose firm hand
and cool brain would safely steer
the great ship of state in her on
ward and upward course so long as
he had hold of the helm. Ii this

one Hundred and Fifty Families Rem
dered Homeless by the Flames.
LONG BRANCH, N. j., June 17.-No
lives were lost in the Sea Bright fire last
night. Every business house in the
place was destroyed and 150 families
were rendered homeless. Men, women
and children slept last night in barns,
bathing houses and fishing huts, and 500
homeless people were fed at the Ruth
erford Arms, the expenses being met by
the relief committee. This morning 700
persons were fed. Lumber has been
ordered from Long Branch for the pur-
pose of erecting temporary buildings. 1t
is impossible to estimate the loss or
give the insurance. The fire swept
over an area containing thirty acres of
buildings. The people are still distract
ed with terror and cannot tellthe amount
of their losses. The summer cottagers
are responding nobly to the appeals for
aid. They have already subscribed
about $4,000. All the wires are down,
and the streets are filled with half
burned furniture and store goods. The
relief committee telegraphed to Gov,
Albeit and Quartermaster-Gene DON
nelly asking them to loan state tents
for temporary shelter for the sufferers.
Eugene Kelly, a stableman, has been ar
rested on the charge of starting the fire.

Copies of the Presidents Proclamation
Taken Along for Circulation Among
the Poachers Who Have Had a Months
Start.

SAN Francisco. June 1.-THE United
States steamer Thetis left here this
morning for Sand Point, Alaska. The
Mohican, which is also destined for the
north, remained in the bay until noon
when she proceeded to Mare Island
navy yard to take on coal. A long dis
patch was received this morning by the
commander of the Corwin which was
supposed to have contained final orders
and also instructions to be carried north
to vessels which had sailed earlier. The
Corwin left about noon for Berlng sea.
Collector Phelps had caused the print
ing of 1000 copies of the presidents
proclamation regarding the seal fisher
les and number of these were sent on
the vessels this morning. The remain
ing copies are leld to 60 up by other
vessels, so that the circulation of the
proclamation may be as wide as possi-
BILE.
1t is estimated that it will be ten or
twelve days before the United States

WASHINGTON, June lit was learned
at the navy department today that the
naval vessels which were to be dis
patched yesterday to Bering sea were
detained over night to receive some sup
Elemental instructions. These, it is
said, concern matters of detail, and are
intended to insure uniform and har-
monious action between the state and
treasury and navy departments.
The changes relate almost exclusively
to the treatment of poachers after seiz-
ure. The Thetis will proceed at once to
Sand Point to notify all sealing vessels
found at that rendezvous to keep out of
Bering sea under penalty of seizure and
prosecution. The revenue steamer Cor
win and other naval vessels will proceed
direct to Bering sea and assist the rev.
enue cutters Bear and Rush in the es-
tablishment of an effectual patrol of
that territory.

cert at the Los Angeles theater on Fri
day night. The Evening Post of San
Francisco says of this singer: "The can
tatrice was born in Brooklyn, NY, and
unlike most singers who have climbed
the heights, she was reared in luxury.
Her remarkable gift was apparent at an
early age, and the development OF her
voice was placed in the best of hands.
Her first master was Herr julius Mey-
er, pupil of Mendelssohn but Signor
Achille Errasni, disciple of Veccai,
was perhaps responsible for bringing her
before the public. He advised her to GO
to Europe, and her beautiful voice was
trained in Milan by Lamperti. Her
voice is soprano sfogato, which she car
ries with ease to F natural. Her high
notes are as pure and true as those Of a
flute. She is compared to Jenny Lind
by the lovers of music who remember
that musical phenomenon"

While the jury was being impaneled

had occurred in the morning between
himself and policeman Gibson, in which
the latter had spoken disparagingly OF

Judge Van Fleet promptly had Gibson
brought into court and interrogated him
on the subject. The fact was developed
that Mckay was the first TO broach the
subject, while Gibson contended that he
did not know the case was before the
court.
Judge Van Fleet having satisfied him

variety of character personation as drawn
from models in city life It tells the
simple story of two young country girls
who come to New York. The elder is
light-headed and easily led and infiu
enced by evil companions; the other is
immovable in her uprightness, moral
strength, hope and purity of heart. The
elder falls victim to the wiles ofa young
villain; the younger is won by q manly
fellow, retired Montanan, and the two
rescue the elder sister at the last,
while the villain meets q deserved fate.
The scenes in the lives OF these characters
in the great city are claimed to be essen
TALLY true to nature and typicaiof life in
the low levels and grades in New
York. Out of so conventional a tale it
would seem difficult to evolve much of
the dramatic interest, but we must be-
lieVe our exchanges, which declare that
few if any home dramas have achieved
such success, or so won the hearts of the
people. 1t appears that pathos confronts
wit, hGmor elbows sentiment, and tears
are blotted out by smiles throughout all
the emotional piece. In the course of the
play the Acmei quartet, certified as
very superior, appears, as also Ad Ry-
man, the old-time minstrel, who assumes
the character of Pepper, the Montanan.
The Brooklyn EGgte pronounces the
piece ''an important revolution in
dramatic workmanship" the Standard
Union of the same city says 'it seems
like the life story of some near and dear
neighbor." The Chicago Tribune prefers it
to the ''Old Homestead" because it strikes
q deeper chord Of human interest in the
story that it tells, and its strokes Of hui
NOR, as well as its touches Of realismiare
the more numerous. There are situations
strong i'll contrast, characters vivid in
color, and sentiments as true III feeling as
they are modest in expression. The San
