A queer deception came to light in Paris
the other day in the course of police raid
on unmuzzled dogs. An old lady whose
pet had been seized among the others COM
planned loudly when her pug was captured
that the police allowed that of her neigh
| Dor, a painter, to roam at will without a
| muzzle. The police inspector assured his
visitor that the artists dog WAS always
| muzzled and was somewhat taken sback
on learning that the muzzle in question was
merely painted on the animals head.
At st. Denis, just outside of Paris, the
socialists have control of the municipal
affairs and are bound to arrange matters
according to their fashion. They have
established ''civil baptism" and have
sprinkled nine babies with water in 1.-THE
name of liberty. equality, and fraternity"
The "Marseillaise'' was sung, sponsors
were appointed, and they engaged to
rear and teach the children in case of the
death of the parents. Then the town
council went and glorifed civil baptism.

An interesting and surprising statement
regarding the disaster to the American
and German war ships in the famous hur
ricane at Samoa on March 10, 1899, Is
made by Robert Louis Stevenson in his
new book, eight Years of Trouble In
Samoa" 1t will be remembered that this
hurricane occurred when the political
troubles In the island were at their height,
and great jealousy existed among the sew
eral white nations represented there. In
that hurricane the three American war
ships and the three German warships sta
toned at Apis were wrecked together with
some fifteen merchant vessels. The Brit
ish warship Calliops was the only man-of
war that escaped, and che steamed out to
sea and outrode the storm. Mr.. Stevenson
says the loss of the warships was rather
political than a nautical catastrophe. Un-
der ordinary circumstances, he says, they
would and could all have steamed out of
the harbor at the first sign of the hurri-
cane, and could have easily escaped. But
the Jealous and hostile feeling between the
Germans and Americans was so great that
neither was at all inclined TO up anchor
and steam out to certain safety leaving the
other in occupation of the harbor. Mr..
Stevenson blames the Germans for the
whole of the trouble in Samoa.

PlNKERTON ON THE STAND.
The Investigating Committee Re-
sumed Examinations Yesterday
,ph to the State Chronicle,


WASHINGTON, July 22.-The sub com
miitee of the House committee on the iu-
dietary charged with the investigation of
the Homestead labor troubles resumed
its session day. Robert A. Pinkerton
was the first witness called. His firm had
been engaged by Mr.. Frick during the
coke strike in Pennsylvania to which
they sent about $50 watchmen. They
were sworn in as deputy marshalls. The
Carnegie company wanted 800 men at
Homestead by July 6, and the men were
furnished. They came from New York,
Chicago and Philadelphia. The men knew
for what purpose they were wanted. He
did not know personally anything about
the barges, but thought they were ordin-
AIRY barges. He did not believe they
were lined with iron and proof against
small fire arms. The barges werei not
secure from attack and he would not
have allowed his men to have gone in
them if he thought that they would
have been attacked. The landing
was made at night when it
was believed the men would be in
bed The sole desire was to avoid riot.
He was advised by counsel that he had
a perfect right to send watchmen from
one State to another. In reply to Mr.
Bynum he said his was a copartnership
organization doing detective business
Mr. Boatner asked him why he sent his
men to Homestead when he knew there
would be collision with the labor peo-
pie. Witness replied that he did not
expect any trouble. He expected
his men to be landed without
the knowledge of the strikers. He
had stipulated with the Carnegie peo
pie as farsas possible that his men should
be sworn in as deputies. Mr.. Boatnel
asked witness if he had ever detailed hi.
men as Knights of Labor. Witness pre-
ferred not to answer that question as i
related to his private business. Witness
explained the methods used by thu
agency in securing men. Men he sale
were secured generally through their owl
application. They were examined b,
himself or one of his men, and alway
required to give recommendations ant
prove their good character. In tn
Homestead case they had obtained some
men in this way, bnt two thirds of then
were men who were already in the ser
vice. The new men were sent for ant
what was expected of them was explain
ed. Only about twenty of his men wer
given arms at first, but when matter
became more serious the number doubled
Mr.. Boatner aaked how the arms an
ammunition came to be delivered to tn
barges. Witness replied that he assume
that it was by orders of Mr.. Frick, bu
could not state positively.

How FitZsimmOns Was Beaten M
WashinotOn


Mr. Cecil g. Stone, Walter Woollcott
and Will Wynne returned yesterday from
the annual meeting of the League of
American Wheelmen at Washington.
Mr.. Stone also saw the great races at
Baltimore Thursday, held by the Mary
land division. In an interview with the
CHRONICLE reporter, he says that Caro-
lina's FitZsimmons was not treated fair
in the handicap mile race His record
was 10 for mile and men with bet
ter record were given from 14O to 100
yards, he starting at the 40 yard mark.
The scratch men in the race were the
cracks of America He was run off
his feet keeping up, SO that at the final
burst of speed in the finish, he could not
respond and was about 20 yards behind
the winner. He ran at 2 :3S 1-2 gait.
He then would not start in the 3 100 class
and the mile handicap next day. Stone
thinks he could have easily won the 3:O0
race as the time was only 2:57. He saw
the mile Tandem record broken Thurs
day by Dortge and Penseyers, of Buffalo,
with pace makers. The record of II :5f
was made in London Thursday by Zim
norman (American) and an Englishman
Broadbury. 1t was made yesterday il
12:14 5, which is faster than any safety
record for five miles.

PROSPECTS FLATTEKING.
Distinct Improvements i'll Every De-

New YORK, July OR. G. Dun &
Cos. weekly review of trade will say:
There is distinct improvement, not only
in transaction i'll comparison with the
same time last year, but also in prospects
for the coming season. Crop prospects
at almost all points west and south,
and especially.as respects corn. The mon
etary supply is abundant and the demand,
though reasonably moderate, is at many
points improving, while there is but little
complaint regarding collections. Pros
poets of spring wheat are remarkably
good. In the cotton market decline of
sixteenth occurred with sales of $50, 900
bales in week, owing to continued large
receipts and improved crop prospects.
Manufactured iron is stiffened at Pitts
burg by the closing of many mills and
the works at Cleveland are pushed be-
yond their capacity. In all leading lines
trade exceede last years at Cincinnati.
At Louisville the trade is fair but at
other Southern points dullness ap-
pears. Rain is reported to have
slightly affected cotton about Sa-
vannah and considerable improve.
ment in trade is seen at New Orleans,
though sugar is strong and rice firm.

ed by the vote of Burlington and Quin.
