THE REPUBLICAN ADVISORY COM MlTTEE TO BE A SECRET ONE.

The Democratic Committees Appointed
 by Chairman Harrity-Michigan's Re-
 apportionment Law Declared Uncon-
 stitutionaI by the Supreme Court.
 WASHINGTON, July ea.-J. S. Clarkson and J. N. Huston, of the Republican nation al committee, joined Chairman Carter in Washington. With Senator Felton, of Cali fornia, they called at the White House and spent some time with President Harrison, discussing the political situation and the necessities and probabilities of the cam paign. One thing they talked of with much interest was the work of the literary bureau of the campaign, which is to be under Mir. Clarkson's management, and the character and number of publications of political mat ter was discussed.
 Another thing that was discussed was the organization of an advisory committee. Chairman Carter said that the names of this committee would not be made public by him, even after it had been decided upon.
 Messrs. Carter and Clarkson lunched with the president and then held conferences with numerous politicians who called to see them. Among these were several from the southern states, in which it has been de- termined to make struggle for the electoral vote.
 The Chicago Branch.
 It was stated during the day that MT. Tanner, the member of the executive com mittee from Illinois, would resign in defer ence to the presidents intimation that he did not think it right for a federal office holder, at least one of such prominence, to be identified with the management of the campaign.
 The openir of branch headquarters in Chicago under a subcommittee of the na- tional committee was under consideration, and President Harrison and Chairman Car ter are said to have united in a request to Mir. Huston, of Indiana, to take charge of the Chicago branch. MT. Huston is said to have stated that he could not devote so much of his time to the campaign as the chairmanship of that subcommittee would require, but announced his willingness to take place on the subcommittee. Messrs. R. G. Evans, of Minnesota, and E. H. Bose water, of Nebraska, are mentioned us two other members of the subcommittee. Mir. Evans is also spoken of as possible chairman.
 General Clarkson said that the situation in New York was improving and that they were going to elect Harrison. "I have never taken much stock in the idea of car rying southern states" he said, mot be. cause we have not votes enough in some of the states, but because we cannot get them counted. But at this time things look very favorable in North Carolina and Tennessee, and our friends there think they can win.n Messrs. Clarkson and Carter returned to New York.

 Locating the Anarchists.
 Inspector McKelvey, who is acting super intendent of police, has been especially wig liant in watching the hsunts of the anarch- ists, and from information obtained it is said that efforts will be made to bring Miss Emma Goldman, who lived with Berkman at Worcester Mass, here, as it is believed she, too, is an accomplice. The number of anarchists that the inspector has located nearly 900 in the county-is quite a revela- tion to the citizens of Pittsburg. It has taken an extra supply of men, but the work has been prosecuted day and night. In spector McKelvey says: 'I think we have Bauer and Knold implicated. AS to Knold there is no question as to his connection with the case. We have now two witnesses who will swear positively that he was with Berkman on Saturday morning and waited outside while he went up stairs. This man Knold is a slick one. While he would not admit that he showed Berkman Tricks office he admits he showed him The Chron- icle-Telegraph building. Now there was no reason for him pointing out The Chronicle Telegraph building unless it was to show where Mir. Tricks office was.
 "Chief Murphy has taken charge of the Alleghany end of the case. At first was inclined to think Berkman was alone in this matter, but I am now satisfied that there was an organized movement against Prick, and Berkman was only the tool of a number of conspirators. In few days there will be some developments that will startle the community"
 The police authorities here have also come into possession of facts leading them to be- ieve that bombs are now being made in this city. A merchant on Smithfield street reports to the police that within the past three days he has sold unusually large quan- titles of small glass tubes and other mate rials that are used in the construction of the usual anarchist bombs The merchants customers have been mostly foreigners of repulsive appearance and, he says, Russian Jews, having every appearance of anarch-

When a Man Can See zoo Miles.

About 200 miles in every direction is the
distance a man can see when standing, on
a clear day, on the peak of the highest
mountain, say at height of 6,66S feet, or
little over five miles above the level of
the sea. An observer must be at a height
of 6,667 feet above sea level TO see objects
at a distance of 100 miles. The distance in
miles at which an object upon the surface
of the earth is visible is equal to the square
root of one and half times the height OF
the observer in feet above the sea level.
Some allowance has to be made for the
effect of atmospheric refraction, but as
the refraction varies at different heights,
and is affected by the various states OF the
weather, no precisely accurate figures for
general purposes can be given. Probably
| one-fourteenth to one-teuth of the distance
given by the formula would have to be de
