officers Of the Fair viii Accept the situation
and lake Whas lhny Can Get.
WASHINGTON, Aug 4.-Everything was
moving along smoothly this morning in the
programme arranged yesterday by the Dem
ccratic caucus. The officers OF the fair have
come to the conclusion that the best thing
that can be done is to accept the situation
and endeavor to pass the Durborrow bill
rather than continue the tight and take
chances of getting nothing. In &C.
ccrdance with this advice the Dem
ocratic Worlds fair members in Con-
gress will not resort to obstruc-
ton tactics, but will vote with their COL
leagues to carry out the caucus agreement.
Republican members, also, will not delay
matters, this course being taken on advice
given Hopkins of Illinois by Director Gen
eral Davis as to wishes of the Worlds
fair managers; but the Republican policy
will be to make it very plain that the whole
responsibility rests with Democrats, and
that they propose to keep their record clear
by voting steadily for the $4,000, 900 propo-
sition. Worlds fair men expect that Sun
day closing will be incorporated in Dur
borrow's bill tomorrow and say they will
have to accept it. Efforts are making to
have vote on the Durborrow bill tomor-
row and bring about the earliest possible
congressional adjournment.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.-The report that
the British government has taken posses
sion of the Johnston islands, in the Pacific
ocean, does not excite much interest in Of
fetal circles, for the reason that the island
is OF no value for strategic purposes and
because its supply Of gusno is practically
exhausted. At the department of state it
is said the United States has expressed
iurisdic.ion2l right over the island since
1855, when the American GuaaO company
landed a party thereon and occupied it.
Territorial Jurisdiction, however, has never
been claimed by the United States and the
The United States would exert its
Ijurisdictional rights over the island to pro-
tect the Guano company in pursuit of its
business but it is said there would be no
conflict with the territorial Jurisdictions
forwarded by another government. In
case the Guano company abandoned opera
tions on the island this government would
have no Jurisdiction whatever over it.
YELLOWSTONE PARK INVESTIGATION.
The minority of the House committee Of
Republicans have submitted views on the
Yellowstone Park investigation. They
take tho grounds that Secretary Noble
acted with fairness and justice in annulling
the transportation leases, and that Gibson
acted in false and deceitfdl manner in his
relations with the secretary. The most
bitter attack is made on Gibson by the mi
nority, while Russell Harrison's con-
nection with the company is de-
Tended in strong terms. Referring to
it the minority accuses the ma
jority of going out of its way in
what it characrerizes as an attempt to
smirch the son of the president by the use
of some o. the incidentals in evidence. The
facts are it says, that certain party, in
terested in the Park association. assuming
that Harrison would have some influence
with the unknown secretary Of the interior
to be appointed, proposed to induce Harri-
son 10 use such supposed influence for the
benefit of the association, and remunerete
him with fifty shares OF stock, but the
stock was never issued. The minority
holds that Harrison was never re-
quested by Waters, to use his influ-
ence, and there was no need that he
should do so. The whole thing was
evidently fraud. The minority continues
that it was one of Gibson'S tricks and the
majority is unsupported by single particle
OF evidence against Harrison and its com
ment is wholly u1called for.
Secretary Noble has appointed Reuben
p Boise and William H. Odell OF Salem,
Or, and H. H. Harding of Carthage.
