WITH BARBARIC sPLENDoR.
ST PETERSBURG, July 29.-The grandeur
OF the dinner given last night by the Gar to
the French officers. may be judged from the
fact that $50 pieces of gold plate figured on
the imperial table. Both Moscow and st.
Petersburg were drawn upon for means to
make display barbaric in its magnifeence
and far exceeding the Queens state dinner
TO the Kaiser. The scene was Oriental
rather than European, and gave sufficient
proof OF the vast treasure accumulated by
the Romanoff family in the course of the
centuries OF the empire.
wARLIKE DEMONSTRATIONS.
LONDON, July 29-The opinion of the
army Is practically the opinion of every in
huential Russian, and when the officers Of
the army talk war, and are impatient of
peace, even the Car is obliged to listen, if
not yield. All the cores Spondents agree
that the demonstrations at CronStadt were
of warllke character. No sentiment was
breathed that did not signify an alliance of
Russia and France for war, aud, while no
reflections were uttered on England in any
of the formal speeches or addresses, the ut
most hostility, mixed with contempt. was
expressed. more especially by the Russians,
for Germany and the Kaiser. The general
Impression given to the correspondents was
OF brilliant asSembage, who looked upon
each other and acted and talked as allies in
grand struggle soon TO come.
The NOVoe Vremya to-day publishes an
interview with Admiral Gerevais of the
visiting French squadron, i'll which he de-
ciares that he has not been entrusted with
any political mission TO Russia, but only to
convey the friendly sentiments of the
French Government and its people. The
cordial relation between Russia and
France, the Admiral declares, is analogous
TO that between the members of the Drei-
bund and is purely defensive.

THE INSPECTION OF LUMBER.
A Committee OF Dealers Have . Conference
with the Commissioners.

with the Commissioners.
For some time past the lumber dealers Of
the city have been trying to get the law requir-
ing the inspection Of lumber changed or prop
erly defined There has been more or less
complaint from the dealers for years against
the fees charged for inspection and the methods
employed by the inspectors.
The law on the subject is found in webb's
Digest on page 252 under the head of lumber
and provides for six inspectors, ''whose duty
il shall be to inspect and measure all boards.
plank, joists. scantling and timber brought to
and offered for sale within the jurisdiction of
the corporation when and as soon As the same
shall be sold
This morning at a special meeting of the
board the Commissioners heard a committee
from the lumber dealers Of the city COMPOSED
of Samuel Ross and l. n. Jackson on this ques-
tion-
The gentlemen discussed the question at
length with the Commissioners They said the
Law as IL existed was farce Lumber in
spected and measured and the good and con-
demned all placed in one pile. so that really no
one was benefited by such inspection unless 1t
was the first buyer, who deducted the cost OF
inspection from the amount due the shipper:
The second section of the law read. This
is what il says:
1T shall be the duty Of the inspectors Of
lumber to cut in Iegible figures the number
OF feet contained in each board, plank, joist.
scaatling or timber by the rule of board meas
ure except boards under one inch, which shall
be measured on the surface and marked ac-
cordingly. All unsound. worm-eaten, irregu-
larry sawed, wind shaken. widowed or very
knotty boards, scantling or other timber that
may be, in the opinion Of the measurer unnt
for use, shall be condemned and left out OF
the count or any part thereof.
10 was impossible, Mr.. Ross said. to follow
this law especially during the months Of July.
August and September, for the lumber cut
during these months was almost necessarily
more or less widowed. The best way, he
thought, to measure and inspect lumber was
ut the yard when il was sold. The way to ind
out the scope and validity Of the law was by a
test case but this had never been done, al
though they had sought it.
At the suggestion Of Commissioner Ross the
matter was referred to the attorney for the
District, with the request that he report on the
question involving the validity of the law at an
early day.
