Architect King Tells How One Should
Be Arranged.
Copyright by American Press Association-l
In every large town or city well equip
ped and organized police force Is necessary
10 the safety and protection OF the COM
munity. Very little attention, however,
has been given TO the planning or cOnstruc-
ton of police stations by architects, and
their arrangement and general construc-
ton Is open to criticism from a practical as
well as an aesthetic point of view.
The police force OF a town is usually en-
tirely under the control of one man, known
as the chief inspector, whose jurisdiction
extends over the entire limits Of the city.
The city is then divided into certain num-
Der Of precincts, with a station house in
each for the accommodation Of the officers
and patrolmen.
The number of men assigned to a pre-
cinct of course depends upon the size of the
city and various other conditions. An
average precinct in the city Of New York
would require not less than eighty men,
which are divided into two platoons, under
the directions of the captain of the precinct
and his assistant. Each platoon is divided
into two sections, with sergeant in charge
of each section, and it is so arranged that
only one-half Of the patrolmen in each sec
tion shall be on duty at time.
The illustrations given represent de-
sign for a police station in small city.

ARMS CT THE ITATA.

They Would Have Cut Small Figure

WASHINGTON, June 8.-Nothing is known
in official circles of the reported secreting of
arms by the Itata before her surrender to
Admiral McCann. 1t is assumed from Ad
miral McCann's reports to the navy depart
ment that the insurgents have been acting
in good faith throughout, but in any event
the arms and ammunition will cut smaller

against the Itata rests entirely upon her

QUAY CALLS ON HARRISON.

The Complexion of the Pennsylvania
Delegation Not Discussed.
WASHINGTON, June 8.-Senator Quay
called on President Harrison to-day and
they had long talk, but they did not get
down to business-that is to say, the desire
of President Harrison to have the delega-
tion from Pennsylvania to the next ma
tionsl convention was not mentioned,
neither was Senator Quay's purpose to take
an anti~Harrison delegation unless Presi-
dent Harrison convinced him by
substantial arguments that it would
be wiser not to do 30. Both of the high
contracting parties were shy. and the great
matter which both had in mind was not
broached. There is to be another inter
view, however, perhaps Tomorrow, in
which they may overcome their shyness
although there are intimations that they
are awaiting the return of Postnas-
ter General Wanamaker, who is to
act as the diplomatic intermediary
between them, President Harrison being too
proud to talk about denomination directly
with one who is not his intimate friend, and
Senator Quay being too proud to begin the
NEGOTIATIONS.

Provisions of the Bill Now Before
Parliament.
LONDON, June S.-Sir William Hart
Dyke, vice president of the committee of
the council on education, ia the House of
Commons to-day. introduced the governs
ments long-talked of educational bill.
In SO doing Sir William Hart Dyke said
that the government desired as little as
possible to disturb the existing educational
system, and added that IL aimed to distri
butte the grant so as TO give it equally be-
tween voluntary and board schools. The
bill also proposed to relieve the parent of the
payment OF fees to elementary schools.
DIFFERENrIAL PAYMENTS SUGGESTED
1t had been suggested that they should
differentiate the payments, and also that all
fees for schools, high or low. ought to be
remitted. There were manifest difficulties
in the way of such course, but after the
fullest consideration the government had
come to the conclusion that the
best possible scheme was the payment
to the school authorities of ten
shillings per head for each scholar in
average attendance at the elementary
schools. There would be no standard of
limitation whatever. [Cheers.l The grant
would be made payable only on demand of
children between and IA years of age and
attending compulsory schools Parents
sending to school a child under 5 years of
age will be required to pay fee Of 2 pence
weekly.
The bill passed its first reading.

lTALY's EARTHQU AXE

ROME. June S.--Advices from Badia in
Calavania and Etrignafzo two Of the towns
in the north Of Italy visited by an earth
quake Yesterday, show that the inhabitants
were terror stricken and have taken to the
fields for safety. The authorities have, as
far as possible, sought TO alleviate the dis
tress among the people, and have furnished
large number of tents to shelter those
who have fed from their homes. Occa-
sionally slighter shocks than those OF yes
terday are felt. the people are in dread OF
momentarialy seeing the earth open and
swallow them.
The damages at these two places Is much
greater than was indicated in the first re-
ports. The towns were practically de-
stroyed by the severity OF the shocks. The
commission appointed by the authorities to
examine houses which were not thrown
down by the undulations Of the earth have
made hasty investigation, and they re-
port that at least three-quarters Of the
houses are Ia such a condition that the pub
lie safety demands that they be pulled
down entirely Large bodies of troops have
been dispatched to these places TO assist the
authorities in clearing the streets Of debris,
In tearing down dangerous houses and to
render such other assistance as they may
be called upon to give.
The earthquake was strongly felt at
Florence and at Aquila. In this city only
slight shocks were experienced.

EXTENSION OF THE BONDS
WESTERN BANKERS FAVOR THE
PER CENT. BASIS.

Wall Street Ready to Take the Whole
Issue of $53, 100000 II the Rate Is
Made 2 Per Cent-Secretary Fosters
Mind Not Made Up Yet.
WASHINGTON, June 8-Several offers for
the extension Of AZ per cent bonds were re-
ceived at the treasury department this
morning. One was of 5000, 900 at the rate
of 2 per cent. This came from citizens.
Others were at any rate the department de-
cides on. They were all from western banks.
Secretary Foster called on the President this
morning and informed him of the results of
his recent conference with the bankers and
brokers of New York, and of their pro-
fessed willingness to take up the entire AZ
per cent loan If extended at per cent.
NO CONCLUSION REACHED.
No conclusion was reached at this con-
ference as to the best course to be followed.
The question will be again considered at
the cabinet meeting tomorrow. There
is great conflict of opinion
as to the future action OF the treasury de-
partment with respect 70 this loan, but it is
generally understood that Secretary Foster
favors its extension at 2 per cent. He ad-
mitted as much this afternoon. He said
that such course would raise the credit of
the government and at the same time
enable the national banks to increase their
circulation, thing greatly needed after
the recent heavy shipments Of gold. He
said also, however, that there were SO many
strong arguments in favor of an extension
at a lower rate of interest that he really
did not know but what it might finally be
concluded to fix the rate at per cent.
WHERE THE BONDS ARE HELD.
statement prepared at the treasury de-
partmeut shows that the AZ per cent. bonds
held by the national banks are geographi-
caIly distributed as follows: New England
states So, 743, $50; middle states, SIS, ,695, 400
southern states. So, ,447, 800; western states
Sl3, 7s4, 300; total, S26, ,671 $50. This shows
that the western banks, which are said
to favor the per cent. rate,
hold more than one-half of the entire
amount owned by the national banks and
more than the banks of the New England
and middle states combined. The strongest
point in favor of the 2 per cent. rate is the
agreement of the eastern bankers to pur.
chase the entire outstanding loan of $685.
100000 at that rate. while the western
bankers, known to favor the Il per cent rate,
have so far spoken only with respect to the
bonds now held by them.

CENSUS CLERKS TO GO.
The Force Being Cut Down as the
Work Nears Completion.


Work Nears Completion.
WASHINGTON, June s.-The clerical force
of the census Office within the next seven
weeks will probably be reduced about !, 600,
in addition to 300 reductions in salaries
which will be made within the present
month. This reduction in the force is due
to the fact that work in nearly every divis-
ion OF the census Office is rapidly drawing
to close. There are twenty-five divisions
IN the bureau, with combined clerical
force OF 3,O5S. OF this number ], 400 were
employed In the population division, and
these will be retained until July 81, when
the services Of at least 900 clerks will be
dispensed with. Four weeks later this force
Will be further reduced to about 400.
FARMS, HOMES AND MORTGAGES.
The next important branch of the census
work Is the division Of farms, homes and
mortgages. There are 537 persons en-
ployed on this work, which will very likely
be completed by Sept Is next, when the
clerical force will be reduced to 200. Under
the present appropriation the work can then
be carried forward until April /, 1898, but
1t will be necessary for congress to make an
additional appropriation to complete this
branch of the work. The population
division, farms and mortgage and printing
divisions and the administration division
comprise 3 ,270 of the present force of 3,05S.
DIVISIONS OF SPECIAL WORK.
The remainder Of the force comprises di-
visions of special work Of the census, and il
is stated that this work is sufficiently ad-
vanced TO admit Of decided reductions. Six
minor divisions have already been abol-
ished, and five others have about completed
their work. In regard to the condition of
the work Of the census, it is stated that none
Of the statistical inquiries will have to be
abandoned. The aggregate population of
the country by the minor civil divisions will
have been completed, printed and bound in
preliminary form by Aug. next.
THE FIRST VOLUME.
BY that time ID is expected that 500 pages
Of the first volume Of the compendium will
be ready for the printer. By December CT
January next it is believed that the volume
of the compendium relating to population
will be printed and ready for distribution,
it Is expected that all the special work,
with the exception of vital statistics, agri.
culture and manufactures, will be com.
pleted and ready for the printer by the
close of the year.

CAN CATCH 1900 SEALS.
The President Issues the Order
Wanted by Blkins.

Wanted by Blkins.
WASHINGTON, June s.-The government
has notified its agent on the seal islands to
stop the killing of seals by the North
American Commercial Company when 1t
has taken 1900, the number Of seals which
the administration in ite correspondence
with the British government for q
''close season" made one of the
conditions Of the agreement, on
the ground that it was necessary to permit
the sealeries company to take this number as
compensation for the expense Of supporting
and providing for the welfare Of 300 and
odd natives who live on the islands and de-
| rive their livelihood from the sealing indus
try. When this number has been taken seal
killing is to be stopped and further orders
awaited.
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE ORDER.
1t has heretofore been supposed that this
order would not be issued until after the
English parliament had passed the Bering
| sea bill and an agreement had been for
mally arrived at betwesn the government
| of Great Britain and the United States to
| submit the dispute to arbitration, but the
President must have been satisfied that af-
fairs were in such shape that only some
| necessary formalities about which
there was little or no question
remained in the way of a complete under
| standing, for the revenue cutter Rush when
1t sailed northward some days ago carried
an order limiting the seasons catch Of the
company to 1880, and proving that, at
least SO far as this government was con-
| cerned, the year 1891 should be practically
q "close season" in the seal industry.
ORDERS OF THE RUSH.
The treasury department refused TO make
public the orders OF the Rush at the time
she sailed, and the fact now learned, for
| the first time, shows that the government
has put into actual operation its PROPOSE
| ton to Great Britain on the belief
that there was no reasonable doubt that
seal killing with the limitations stated
would be forbidden by both Great Briton
and United States pending the settlement
Of the long controversy. 1t is said
that material progress is being made
toward a temporary settlement of the
| Bering sea question, pending fna
arbitration of the points at issue. Presi
dent Harrison, Secretary Foster aud At
torney General Miller were in conferences
| to-day discussing the situation. The rev.
| enue cutter Corwin is now at San Francisco
awaiting f1nal orders, and it is expected
that these will be sent to her within the
next few days, when sbe will proceed K
