DAN AND THE ARMY.
Preparing for an Extensive Sys-
tenn of Coast DefenSes.
1t Is Necessary That rlany Infantry
men Should Be Converted Into
ArtilIerymen.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-The annual re-
port of the Secretary of War gives the
usual review of the condition and opera
tions of the army and in addition is
devoted specially 10 the progress of work
on seacOast defenses. Now that Indian
warfare is practically at an end the
gradual concentration of the army on the
Seac cast and frontiers should follow, and
the work of terrifying thirteen of the
largest seaports renders manifestly neces-
sary the conversion of portion of the in-
fantry to artillery arm. The total strength
of the army is 2144 officers and %, 778 en-
listed men.
The Secretary recommends the repeal OF
the law fixing Il ten-year maximum of the
period of enlistment and the reduction OF
the period of the first enlistment to three
years. The adoption of the new magazine
rife is the most important step since the
close OF the civil war. and the entire in
fantry will be equipped with the new arm
before the close of the coming year.
The engineer corps is preparing at Port
land. Me-, Boston. New York, Washing

SOME UGLY CHARGES.
Why the Princess ColOnna Wants
to Be Free.
Public Sympathy Is With Her, and
Mrs. Mackay Is Not Much
Concerned.

LONDON. Nov. 29.-Mrs. John W.
Meckay has left her house in Carlton
House terrace and gone to Paris to be with
her daughter, Princess Colonna, who has
commenced legal proceedings with the
view of obtaining a separation from her
husband. Prince Colonna. An intimate
frie nd of the Mackay family, whose name
is withheld by special request. confirms the
report of the causes which led the Princess
to seek a separation. This friend says The
case will soon be heard at Paris, and that
the Princess charges Prince Colonna with
numerous acts of infdelity, in addition to
general prof1igacy. There is not the slight
est charge of any kind made against the
Princess, whose coulse meets with general
approval and sympathy.
PARIS, Nov. 29.-The Princess Colonn
gave dinner party this evening at her
residence. Rue de la Gaisanderie. Mrs.
Mackay was seen by an Associated Press
correspondent and questioned with refer
ence to the suit her daughter has brought
for separation from her husband Mrs.
Mackay did not seem at all concerned over
the suit. She refused to give any informa-
ton as to the causes which led the
Princess Colonna to begin suit, and re-
ferred the interviewer to her husband in
New York aud to the solicitor in charge of
the case in London as the only persons
able to give the information desired.

GERMAN FINANCES.
Discussion Upon Topic That May
Yet Wreck the Empire.

BERLIN, Nov. 29.-In the Reichstag to-
day, during The discussion of the budget,
Herr Moeler. National Liberal, contended
that 6O,O00,000 marks were not needed for
the execution of the new army measures,
and said his party was divided in regard
to the necessity for new taxes.
Herr Hausman of the South German
Volksparte warned the Reichstag not to
loosen the ties between the various states
of the empire by the adoption of bad
financial policy.
Lieutenant-General Spitz, in behalf of
the Minister of War, who is i'll, replied to
the attacks upon the Governments policy.
He declared that the Government pro.
posed nothing calculated to jeopardize
national unity.
Herr MIGUEL. Minister of Finance, de-
clared that the Government was not Cd.
posed TO certain notifications of the
scheme, especially with regard to meas
Ures of control. He was opposed to an
imperial income tax, a property tax or
succession duties. and maintained that
the Governments proposals were alone
practicable.
Herr Kardorff, member OF the I'M
perial party, defended the attitude of the
agrarians He declared that he would
give support to the proposals offered py
Herr Miguel.
Herr Rickert stated that his party would
not bind itself to agree to the Governments
proposals.

GLADSTONE'S RULE.
Lord Salisbury Says 1t Is a Setting
of English Against English.

CARDIFF. Nov. 29.-The conference of
the National Conservative Union was re-
sumed to-day. A resolution was passed
demanding from the Government a fresh
naval programme, and asserting the abso-
lutte necessity of maintaining the suprem-
acy OF England on the seas.
Replying to toast at luncheon, Lord
Salisbury said: Gladstone, when in diff
culties, always seeks more power by SET
ting some class against its neighb0r.
Gladstone complains that the House of
Lords is all on one side; but it was not
always so. The phenomenon is coincident
with the period during which Gladstone is
the leader of the Liberals. Gladstone's
political career shows him stepping from
one invitatio to disunion of classes to
another and similar Invitation, and as long
as he is in need of majorities he pursues
this aim, and will continue to find new
causes to set Englishmen against their
brothers. That is the complaint have to
make against legislation before Parla-
ment. The Conservatives do not differ
from the Government regarding principle,
but in regard to treatment that simply en-
courages the antipathy of one class against
another. "

RAILROADS SEEK PEACE.
But the Canadian Pacific Will Not
Bury the Hatchet.

OMAHA, Nov. 29.-General Passenger
Agent Lomax of the Union Pacific de-
clared this afternoon that the recent visit
here Of Messrs. Flndley and White of the
Great Northern was for the purpose of
ascertaining whether the Union Pacific
was inclined to advance transcuntinental
rates. providing other lines interested
would agree to such an advancement. To
this Mr.. Lomax replied that as the Union
Pacific had not demoraiZed rates in the
first instance it would gladly welcome any
change that would increase the revenue of
its system. Upon the immigration ques-
tiOn he was silent. except 10 say that the
machine proposed to be erected by the
Western Passenger Association would be
found very umbersome when actively put
in operation. The design of the bureau is
to take care of next years business, as the
business Of this year is practically at an
end. However. it is purely speculation as
TO just what will be done until the meeting
on December takes final action.
CHICAGO. Nov. 29.-The Canadian Paci-
flc announces that it will only consent to
stop the decentralization of Pacific Coast
rates on condition of being allowed dill
ferential on passenger traffic. To this the
Atchison strenuously objects, and the
prospect is poor for ending the difficulty.

zil, on behalf OF President Peixoto, has
discussed with the leaders of the revolu-
tionary movement here plan looking TO
some decisive arrangements regarding the
rebel feet and the situation in Rio
Janeiro and Rio Grande do Sui. The
fact that Minister Assis had a confer
ence with Dementrio Rebero, representa-
tive of the revolutionists. is taken as a
confirmation of the rumOr and 1t is also
said that the result of the conference will
be peace throughout all of Brazil.
When L interviewed Minister Assis he
admitted that 1t was true that he had
called on Dementrio. but declared that poll
tics were not discussed, and that it was
merely visit of friendship.
This statement, which is received with
suspicion. does not allay the hope that
favorable negotiations will be completed
before the arrival of Peixoto's fleet pur-
chased in New York. The torpedo boat
Aurora is expected here in eight days.
From an agent Of the revolution in Santa
Catharina news has been received that the
rebel forces under General Saraiva have
captured Curitida. the capital of Mariana.
They have also secured twenty-three
Krupp guns and many shells.

LEO'S ENCYCLiCAL.
Science Must Yield to the Inspiration
of the Scriptures.

ROME, Nov. 29.-The Pope's encyclical
is in three parts. The first part deals with
propounding the Scriptures. 1t recon-
mends that preachers study the sacred
books and the history and records of these
books. giving ex amDles of the preaching Of
Jesus and the apostles and fathers OF the
church. The second part refers 10 the
method of teaching and study, and con-
tains instructions to theologans, prescrib-
ing the study of ancient languages, espe-
cially the Semitic. The third portion is
the most important. In it the Pope points
out the fallacious errors in the systems of
Interpretation of the Scriptures, dwells
upon the necessity of the authority of the
church in this respect. and affirms, on the
authority of the councils of Trent and
Florence and of the Vatican, the divine
inspiration of all parts of the Scriptures,
warns against the spirit of rationallstic
criticism and the tendency to give prefer
ence to scientific theories. and concludes
that on points where science seems op-
posed to the Scriptures it must be sup
posed that either the Scriptures are badly
interpreted or that scientific reasoning is
erroneous

VIGOROUS OBJECTION MADR.
Testimony Relating to Robberies
Admitted.
STORY OF THE COILS AFFAIR.
Witnesses Tell of the Daring Deeds
i'm Which Evans and the Sontags
Participated.

FRESNO, Nov. 29.-The fight over ths
admission of testimony concerning the
Coils train robbery in the trial of Chris
Evans for murder was resumed this morn
ing as soon as the first witness, George d.
Roberts, the express messenger on the car
robbed by Sontag and Evans. was put on
the stand. He was asked to detail the
particulars of the robbery.
1--WE object" said Attorney Kinds. "We
object to anything abOut the robbery. It
is foreign to the Issues of this case. [ de-
sire to be heard a. length on the Ques-
ton"
Kinds spoke more than an hour, dealing
with the law points in the case, and citing
numerous authorities in support of his OBJ
lection.
IF they want to try Evans for train
robbery, or for ejecting Will Smith from
Evans house, for shooting Oscar Beaver,
we are willing to 60 to trial on any Of
these charges" said Kinds; "but we do
object to trial for all. when but one
crime is charged"
Attorney Upper, for the people, was
on the point of rising to reply when Judge
Harris said he had examined the matter
carefully. knowing that it would arise.
and he was inclined to admit the evidence
OF other crimes as a motive for the shoot
ing at Young's cabin.
This ended the controversy on that
point and the prosecution took up the Ques-
tioning of Mr.. Roberts, who gave the par
ticulars of the stopping of the train and
robbery at Rolinda.
The attorneys for the defense announced
that they objected to each and every ques-
tion asked on the subject of the robbery.
The other witnesses examined were AL
Phipps, engineer on the robbed train; Il.
l. BeQuette. a Visalia livery stable man
from whom John SOntag hired buggy ard
team on August 2. 1892, and several others
who had seen Sontag aud Evans in FRESNO
the day before the robbery.
The story Of the robbery differed in no
material points from the facts ELECTED al
the trial of George Sontag. An early ad-
Journment had to be taken in the after
noon because a number of witnesses for
the prosecution failed to appear. An at
tachment was issued for all the absent
ones who had been subpenaed. The care
lessnesS of the officials in this matter is
being very adversely commented upon.
Ihe trial will be resumed Friday morning.
