STILL SEARCHING.
The Old Ford Theater Disaster Is the
Principal Topic of Con-
versatiOn.
That Someone Is Criminally 10 Blame
Seems to BE the General
Opinion.

WASHINGTON, June 10.-The sad re-.
suits of the downfall of the old Ford
theatre furnished the principal topic Of
conversation today. The opinion is
unanimous that there is blame some.
where for the shocking fatality and
many men echoed the words of DR.. Bart.
lett, that the accident was not one the
responsibility for which could be laid
upon God. The more the matter is dis
cussed and farther along the work Of
clearing away the debris progresses the
more evident this becomes. This morn
ing the uninjured clerks IN the doomed
building were about the scene of the
disaster discussing the situation and
holding little Indignation meetings. The
feeling ran very strong among them and
many loud expressions of condemnation
for the officials of the government who
herded them together in such a building.
Col. Stewart, superintendent of construc-
ton of the new city p~ostoffice, seemed to
think, as others do, that the whole
trouble came from the weakening of the
structure caused by the excavations in
the front part OF the basement. There
is no decrease IN the general feeling of
Indignation over the awful disaster.
There is much comment over the fact
that not Il flag on any public building is
at half-mast.
Secretary Lamont arrived here this
afternoon. lie expressed a desire to see
Acting Secretary Grant and Col. Aims
worth, and those officials visited him
and had a conference in regard to the
calamity. The war department records
show that the building was for years
known officially to be unfit for human
occupancy by reason not orly Of its
structural weakness but also because of
lts defective sanitary condition. The
frightful accident called to the attention
of the officials the condition of the other
pubic buildings which are said to be
more or less unsafe. An official of the
treasury department, whose duties re-
quire him to he much # the time ia the
department of justice. said the weight
resting upon the floors of that blilding
was alarming, even t. IL man of nerves.
The clerks who work there assert il is
none too safe. The Busch building
which forms an annex TO the p~OstOfice
department is another of these structures
o which cling, an unsavOry reputa-
ton for eafet. Even the patent
office, a massive stone structure, is
not exempt from general criticism.
The building in which the office of
the sixth auditor Of the treasury de-
partment is located, though the new one
is SO heavily weighted with public doc
uments and other matter that the floors
have sun from two to three inches d.
ready and the clerks are in constant fear.
There is no more dangerous trap in the
city than the patched-up government
printing office which has been from time
to time strengthened by wooden and
iron supports. On it's various floors are
tons of metal, printing matter
and millions of copies of DO nd books.
to say nothing of the employees who
swarm within it's walls, increasing the
danger of their lives.

DUBUQUE, Ia, June 1O.-The rain.
storm today was the scverest in years,
two inches and "a half having fallen in
three hours. The full force of the flood
was not manifest until noon. when the
streets ran rivers. Scores of houses in
the flat portion of the city were mum
dated. A rough estimate places the loss
IN the city at $4,000. Near Rockdale
two buildings were swept from their
foundations and Mrs. Pines and two
%childrens and another occupied
one OF thu houses and rushed to the sec.
ond story when the flood came. They

A Pretty Little story of Prince RUSSELL,
Visit to Princess Eulalia.
The American prince, Russell B. Har
rison by name, strolled into the Hotc
Savoy at 10 o'clock last night, says the
Sunday World. He had dined well
perhaps wisely. He handed his visiting
card to the clerk and asked to have il
sent upstairs to the Princess Eulalla.
The card was not answered by a sum
mons to the royal apartment as Prince
Russell expected. The princess had re-
tired for the night. She was not en-
pecting callers at 10 p. m. In place of IA
royal summons there came a plain Amer
lear one, which ended in the room of
Commander Davis. Commander Davis
and the belated caller we're closeted to-
gether for some time. and then Mr.. Har-
rison reappeared. The American prince
had been turned down.
To a group Of reporters in the hotel

a result of her gracious. democratic ways
the American heart has warmed to her,
and she will go away from the city the

it. She is a lovely woman. a lovely

THE SILVER QUESTION.


iht VIEWS VI VentFtI liitN ANA senator
Jones.
WASHINGTON. June San evening
paper has the following: General Tracy
of Albany, who is one of the most con-
spicuous anti-silver leaders in congress
and who is regarded as one of the
strongest friends of the administration
on the floor of the house, is in this city
and saw the president today. General
Tracy says that the Sherman law will be
repealed at the coming session without
the passage of any substitute measure
or the adoption of any compromise with
the free silver men. The proposition to
repeal this law has a large majority. he
says, in the house, and there are forty
five votes for it in the senate. He also
gives it as his opinion that the proposed
repeal of the ten per cent tax on the
circulation of state banks would fail of
passage. Coming from General Tracy.
these views are of more than ordinary
value. He has carefully studied the
situation, knows every move that has
been made aud evidently speaks by the
card.
Senator Jones. of Arkansas, took an
entirely different view from that OBJ
tanned by General Tracy. The Sherman
law can never be repealed in the senate
unless some other measure looking to
the coinage Of silver be substituted. | am
opposed to the Sherman law and spoke
and voted against it, but | would not
vote for its repeal unless some other
legislation was enacted favorable to sill
yer. / would be willing to haye the old
Bland act re-enacted or some measure
ike i. and would support a repeal of the
present law with that compromise at

TRIAL OF THE MACHIAS.

More Than Fifteen Knots an Hour In the
Long Island sound "trip.
Tho trial trip of the new cruiser Machias
the latest addition to Uncle Sans navy. took
place in Long Island sound Saturday after
noon.
The naval board Of inspection, consisting Of
Admiral Belkuap, Commanders Goodrich and
Cooper, Lieuts. Reamy and Hemphill. and
several Of the engineers corps, were on board,
and at lo:40 anchors were hove and the beauti-
full boat steamed down the Thames to the start
ing point
At the turn the wind was blowing fresh toward
tho northeast, and with fair tide the Nachias
oo~ied along at ssixteen-knot pace. The starting
point was reached just after noon. and as it was
necessary to wait for the turn Of the tide the
ship cruised about for more than an hour.
Meanwhile the wind had subsidized, and when
the time for the start arrived there was not
breath Of air stirring. The steamer was to run
thirty nautical miles to the westward and return
Word was given by Admiral BeIknap, and the
Machias circled around q couple OF times pre-
paratory to crossing the line. which was reached
at 1'49:10. the vessel coming along under
powerful head of steam
Just after passing the first stake boat the
port engine was making 200 revolutions min
ute, while the starboard one recorded Zlo.
Both engines were working superbly and the
boat was going along in splendid shape. The
temperature in the engine room was reported
by one of the naval experts to be excellent and
exceeded the anticipation OF all on board. the
Thermometer at no time going above ITO de-
grees.
The course was from a stake boat of Hor-
tons Point, thirty miles TO Stratford's shoal
hgh. and return, and was almost similar to the
one on which the Detroit made such good time.
The course was divided into four sections,
there being stake boats at start and nnisn,
while the government tugs Leyden, Fortuna
and Nina were anchored at distances OF seven
and ons-hak miles from each other.
The start Of the Mschias was a fine one and
she came tearing down to the Leydsn, the first
stake boat, which she passed at 2:1s:3o- The
