LONDON, Oct. 3.-A correspondent at
Constantinople learns that the Porte has
decided to close the Protestant college at
Anatolia, and has informed the United
States Minister that the Sultan does not
desire the return of DR.. Merrick. The
Government at Washington. report says,
has informed the Porte that American
missionaries must be in no wise pre-
vented from returning to Asia Minor
from Europe.
The Porte claims that no school can be
opened in Turkey without a special fir
man. This will affect Americans chiefly,
since there are between 10000 and 10000
children in the country under American
instruction. The American Minister has
taken the position that. as by the treaty
betw cen Turkey and the United States,
American citizens have the right to pur-
sue vocation in Turkey, no permits are
necessary in their cases.
The granting of permits, he adds,
would be equivalent to a restriction upon
the treaty rights of American citizens,
and unless his position be maintained the
whole American system of missionary
education in Turkey would be endan-

FRUIT SHIPMENTS,
Large Increase In the Amount Shipped
to Eastern Points.

Large Increase In the Amount Shipped
to Eastern Points.
SAN Francisco, Oct. 3.-Wm. Sproule,
Assistant General Freight Agent of the
Southern Pacific Company, reports that
the shipment of green fruit during the
month just ended will aggregate much
higher than the shipments made in the
same time last year. Next season he esti-
mates that the shipment will be at least
LOCO cars more than this year.
Mr.. Sproule said he could not see how
frUit-groWerS could expect lower rates
than are now given them until they or
their friends invent something lighter or
better than the present refrigerator cars.
TO illustrate his meaning, he submitted
the following statement OF the service as
at present rendered: Fruit in refriger-
ators, twenty-five tons car weight, nom
paying; four tons ice weight, non-paying;
twelve tons of fruit pays; total of thirty
eight tons of dead weight, Of which only
twelve tons is paying load. Twenty
two tons of non-paying returning empty
refrigerators, sixty tons of total dead
weight, of which only twelve tons in all
pays freight.
The distance from Sacramento. the
usual shipping point in this State, to
Chicago, is 1850 miles. For this service
the railroad charge is $500 car. aud the
Refrigerator Car Company, which is a
separate organization, charges $l25 car
for ice and attention en- route.
Mr.. Sproule explained that it was nee
essary to return refrigerator cars empty,
because it was impossible to wait for
them to be loaded. Fruit is ripening on
the trees all the time, and orchardists
cannot wait. a few days delay would
mean thousands of dollars of loss to the
fruit-growers of the State. None of the
refrigerator car companies are rich
enough to build cars in sufficient num-
ber to move the California fruit crops,
unless empty cars are speeded back
empty.
According to Mr.. Sproule's opinion, the
market for California fruit will increase
instead of diminish in years to come.
The people in those States easily reached
by the California fruit trains are raising
less fruit every year, and the mass of peo-
pie will come to depend more and more
on supply from this State. Notwithstand-
ing the increased acreage, Mr.. Sproule
does not look for marked increase in
the product of California fruit after next
year. So many orchards are getting old,
that new paintings will not keep up the
ratio of increase that has prevailed in the
past six years.

THE SILVER QUESTION.
Representative Springer Says There
VIII be No Compromise.


VIII be No Compromise.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 3.-W. M. Springer
of Illinois, Chairman of the House Com
mittee on Coinage, says: There will be
no compromise on silver repeal. If the
Senate does not pass the repeal bill there
will be no repeal of the Federal election
laws and no tariff legislation. None of
the Democratic measures which it was
hoped this Congress would pass will be
adopted. The bill to repeal the Sherman
law will be kept before the Senate and
will not be withdrawn before being voted
on under any circumstances. There never
has been anything known such as abSo-
lutely indefinite tilibustering, and | don't
believe the precedent can be established
now. An opportunity must l suppose,
be given to those Senators who have not
yet spoken to express their views, but
when they have done so the vote on un-
conditional repeal cannot long be de-
layed, and the bill will pass"
Springer has been looking into the
question whether the passage of either of
the silver repeal bills would restore the
absolute Free-coinage Act of 1887, and he
has concluded the revival of the clause
fixing the amount of silver in standard
silver dollars might possibly be construed
as warranting the unlimited coinage of
silver by the Secretary Of the Treasury.
Springer consulted Carlisle, who ex-
presses the opinion that free coinage would
not result from the passage of either
bill. He said if the silver men thought
so let them pass the bill and test the mat
ter in the Supreme Court.
Manderson of Nebraska, on the other
hand, says there will be compromise.
1t may not come for two or three weeks,
but il will come.

DEATH OF A NOTED HORSE.

The Once Famous Trotting Sire, Echo,
Gone to the Equine Heaven.
While out near the American River on
Monday County Assessor Irvine heard a
rifle shot over on what is known as
Sullivan's Island, on the Rancho del Paso
side. He afterward learned, on inquir-
ing the cause. that it meant the death of
the once noted trotting stallion Echo.
The old horse had become so enfeebled
from age, being some 80 years old, that it
was deemed an act of mercy to end his
sufferings at once.
Echo was the sire of the great mare
Echora, the dam of many fast ones sired
by Eiectioneer, and-unless the stallion
Robert McGregor still lives-was the last
son of the famous Rysdick's Hamble-
tonian.

The international Yacht Race.

New YORK, Oct. 3.-Fully 10000 people
visited the yacht Valkyrie to-day. 1t is
doubtful if one in dozen who viewed the
Valksrie to-day knew keel from a

The storm kept coming, and it is likely
both boats will bury their noses during
the great race. If the storm continues on
it's present course it will surely hit the
old Sandy Hook lightship, and those who
have been praying for blow will GER

pected from New Rochelle. Both yachts
will be measured for time allowance. and

A French Wine Expert Coming TO

CHICAGO, Oct. 3.-Charles G. Wetmore,
who is in charge of the California wine
exhibit in the Worlds Fair. to-day ad-
dressed a letter to John II. Doyle, Presi
dent of the State Viticultural Association
of California, introducing to the State
Niticultural Commission Monsieur Fran
co.'s Cos, Director of the Viticulture Col
lege at Antilles, France, who is charged
on the part of his Government with the
duty of visiting and reporting upon the
vineyards OF California IN connection
with the Worlds Columbian Exposition.
Mr.. Cos leaves for California shortly, and
desiring such opportunities as may be
reasonably granted the conduct Of his
studies, Wetlnore suggests that the State
Commission provide him suitable COM
panion familiar with the French language
and subject matter.
Continuing, the letter says: Monsieur
Eugene Larronde OF Larronde Ereres,

special report on California wines. Mon
sieur Julien Roy OF COgnac. associated
with ]. Denis MOunie IL Co., who was an
expert on the French jury at the last

similar report on California brandleS.
Both of these gentlemen have finished
their labors and returned TO France. 1
am informed by the French Consul
General, Monsieur Bruwaert, that these
experts are pleased with many samples
in the California exhibits, and their re-
ports will undoubtedly be pleasing to
California They did not, however, work
on the jury, but through the courtesy of
exhibitors were given such opportunities
as they desired. The gentleman who
bears this letter (Monsieur Cos must
necessarily visit California to perform his
part Of the work, because it is impracti-
cable to transport the vineyards and cell
ars to Chicago. He will desire to witness
the operations Of the vintage. u ou will
no doubt assist him in every way to ac-

ADJUSTMENTS.

At the Clunie Opera-house this evening
the melodrama, "Ghe Bridge Wreckers,"
will be again presented. 1t is full of
thrilling situations and striking tableauX
and the speclalties are notably strong and
entertaining.
At the Congregational Church this
evening Rev. H. H. Rice of Oakland, for
merly citizen OF Sacramento, will lect-
ure on the wonders of the White City
and the things most worthy of note at the
Worlds Fair. The lecture will be illus
trated by beautiful pictures shown
through the medium of a Beseler
double stereopticon with dissolving
effects. The lecture has been given six or
seven times. we believe, in San Francisco
and Oakland, and yet on each repetition
the lecturer had crowded houses. Mr..
Rice is a good observer, an easy and enter
tanning speaker and a thoughtful and
scholarly man with goodly supply of
humor. The San Francisco, Oakland and
Alameda press all speak of the lecture as
strong, instructive and highly entertain
ing and the photographs shown upon the
screen as very beautiful and the best ever
brought to the coast. These pictures are
stereopticon slides made by G. d. Arnold,
Chief Of the Department of Photography
at the Worlds Fair, and J. w. Lundy,
an expert operator, accompanies Mr.. Rice
to work the illuminating apparatus used
in showing the photographs.

called again Friday, and was again put

ton was commenced by the District At
