The arbitrators make a special finding
on the facts agreed upon by the agents of
both governments with reference to the
seizure of British vessels in Behring sea in
1887 and 1889, In addition the arbitrators
make certain suggestions to the two gov
ernments, the most important being that
they shonld come to an understanding to
prohibit the killing of seals on land or sea
for period of from one to three years and
should enact regulations to carry out the
finding of the arbitrators
WASHINGTON, Aug 16 - Secretary Of
State Gresham was asked to give an
expression of opinion on the decision, but
this he declined TO do, holding that it
would not be proper for him to comment
on The matter. Mr.. Gresham communi-
Gated the news to President Cleveland at
Gray Gables, and also had long confer
ence with Secretary Carlisle, presumably
with reference to future action concerning
the maintenance of a fleet in Behring sea-
At present the United States has five yes
sells in that sea, with instructions to pre-
vent poaching during pendency of arbitra-
tion proceedings. While it is too early yet
to state what will be done with this fleet,
it is probable that all the vessel compris-
ing it will be withdrawn, with the excep-
tion of one of the revenue cutters, which
will be used in maintaining the protective
zone Of sixty miles about the sealing
islands of the United States in accordance
with the decision of no arbitrators.
LONDON, Aug. 16.- Mr.. Gladstone an

advices from Paris were that, with IA few
exceptions, the Behring sea tribunal

Three Noteworthy Speeches ir the Senate.
UnimPortant Debate in the lI,-..ss.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-The debate in
the house yesterday was not specially i'm
portant, 1t merely gave an opportunity
for four members, Messrs. Hutchison
(Dem., Tex, Blanchard Dem, La. !
Grosvenor Rep., O)and Snodgrass Dem,
Tenn.) to give expression to their views.
The most interesting speech-because it
was really the first Republican protest
against free coinage-was delivered by Mr..
Grosvenor, of Ohio, and which was lack
ing neither in sarcasm nor satire. Mr..
Snodgrass, Democrat from Tennessee,
made a bitter assault upon his colleague,
Patterson, on account of the position taken
by that gentleman against free coinage.
At o'clock the house adjourned.
There were three noteworthy speeches
delivered in the senate. One was by the
new senator from Massachusetts,, MIR.
Lodge, making an earnest appeal to the
senate for prompt action on a bill to re-
peal the purchasing clauses of the Sher-
man act, Another was by the junior SEN
ator from Colorado, Mr.. Wolcott, who
contended that, although the Sherman act
was vicious and illogical, it had nothing
to do with the financial crisis, and its re-
peal would do no good and might do harm.
The third was by the senator from Massa-
chusetts, Mr. Hoar and was a temperate
discussion Of the whole financial question,
with a decided leaning toward bimet-
sllism, A fourth speech-frst of all in
time OF delivery-was made by Mr. Cor
don, of Georgia, in advocacy Of a bill in
troduced by him to suspend for six months
the 10 per cent, tax on the notes of state
banks. No action was taken on any Of the
pending resolutions, and at 5:l0 the senate
adjourned.
The senate finance committee has de-
cided to hold daily sessions beginning to-
morrow for the purpose OF reaching some
conclusion on the silver question. The
committee was granted authority to sit
during the sessions of the senate.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16-At a meeting
called by the committee in charge Of the
bill for the unconditional repeal of the
purchasing clause of the Sherman act,
held last night in the Arlington hotel,
Representative Raynor, of Maryland, pre-
sided. About forty members were pres.
ent, representing every section Of the coun-
try. They compared notes, and the meet
ing felt satisfied that there was majority
In the house Of not less than thirty in
favor of the Wilson bill. Various sub
committees were appointed to meet from
time to time and report the condition Of
the house on the subject of repeal, until
the vote has been taken, An executive
committee was also appointed, of which
General Tracy, of New York, was elected

thousands Of people from all parts of the re-

attendance at about 10000. Regular and
special trains of eight to ten cars each ran
from several points to the park and at the
Lehgh Valley depot of town, alone, 1903
tickets were sold. Besides this over hun
dred tickets were sold on the train, SO the
shenandoah representation can be put down
at over two thousand.
The main topic among all the excursionists
was the base bail match and as the trains ar
rived in the afternoon the people went direct
20 the trottiug park and waited patiently for
the game to begin, preferring wait TO the
risk Of losing a seat on the grand stand.

There were two scorers, Frank McDemott,
the official scorer of the Shenandoah manage
ment and Shenandoah HERALD reporter
Pottsville had no scorer ON the grounds and
after the wrangle this fact was referred to as
evidence that the county seat players had
feared defeat and made up their minds not to
complete the game if they were likely to come
out second.
As far as Manager Reber is concerned it is
but just to say that throughout all the dealing
with the home club and during the ugly fea.
lures Of the game he was a perfect gentleman
but he has players in his club who only bring
disrepute upon the national game.
Time for the game was called at $3.50 p. m

II SS$N - between the Shenan-

clubs for the championship. The clubs had
bantered each other so much on their respec'
tive merits for months past and were brought
together with SO much difficulty that great
interest was manifested in the match by peo-
pie in all parts OF this county and by many
admirers of the game in many towns outside
of ii.
The Pottsville club had repeatedly "rawled
out when cOrnered for match and would
then publicly announce that the failures to
on the part of the Shenandoah club. Event
ually Manager Bradigan, by shrewd manage
ment, got the county seat players down to an
agreement by which they were to receive a
guarantee of s75 for an afternoon game on
neutral grounds (Lakeside) with entirely dis
interested parties as umpire.
Pottsville went to Mahanoy City yesterday
morning and in game there narrowly es
capped defeat, winning by only a score of 9 to
8. The reports after this contest were en-
c)uraging to the Shenandoah players and they
dc I oh 10 4
of success. They expected"a battle for blood"
and had team of players which was consid-
cred able to put up game with Pottsvile at
any time, at home or abroad.
The immense gathering cheered both clubs
as they appeared upon the field and enthusi
asm ran high. 1t was the largest crowd ever
seen at base ball game in this section of the
state
In the arrangements of the prelimnaries it
was announced that Mr.. Pyle, of Pottstown,
and Mr.. Pat Ryan, of Mahanoy City, act as
umpires. 1t was feared that Mr.. Pyle would
have heap of trouble pleasing all on the
grounds, but such did not prove to be the
case. He had picnic. The Shenandoah
players retired the POttsyilles so readily that
no close decisions were called for. They all
fell to the lot of Mr.. Ryan, and the prevailing
sentiment after the end of the contest was
that if there was shadow of favor in any of
the decisions Pottsville received it.

ARIzoTA.

TuE OASIS frequently receives let ters of inquiry about Arizola, and as general answer in reply to such in- ouiries, will say that Arizola is a town on the Southern Pacific Railway where the Florence Irrigating Canal crosses the track. Three years ago it was a desert: today there is railway sta tion at which all passenger trains of the Southern Pacific stop regularly. a telegraph office, post office. an ex- press office, a hotel, store, school house, a printing office, stock yard and chute for shipping cattle, and a thrifty and enterprising community. with a newspaper. THE OASIS, to speak for them. Three years ago the spot on which Arizola stands was taken up as desert land, for which the govern ment was paid one dollar and twenty five cents per acre. Today town lots are selling rapidly from one hundred dollars up. aud cultivated land sur rounding the town is worth from forty to sixty dollars an acre and upward. That is what has been done at Arizola in three years. Come and join iu the grand work of making Arizola pros porous city. We have the most fer tile farming land in the United States, and health giving climate not sur passed in the world.

Edison on Money.

Thomas A. Edison. the great in- ventor, has apparently turned DOT tion of hisattention to the financial problem. In a recent interview he said:
 The hankering after gold and silver is largely traditional. People allow themselves to be governed by the old ideas on the subject of coinage formu- lated at a time when national credits did not exist and currency would only be taken at an intrinsic value. What we need is new standard of value. l think that the best dollar could be made of compressed wheat. You take bushel of wheat and squeeze the water out of it and then compress it into hard cake the size of silver dollar and stamp the government mark upon it. That would represent actual value and labor performed and then you could eat your dollar, for when you wanted your wheat all that would be necessary would be to put your money to soak. We should then have the bushel of wheat as a perma- nent unit of value which all farmers would appreciate, and the currency of the country would represent actual worth and labor performed. Both gold and silver could then be dis pensed with and the present bimet- allie problem solved.

Experts think that the Orloffs. the recently imported Russian stallions, will be great improvement to the American trotter First there is DO question as to their speed as one of them has record of 2:2lf. from d standing start drawing a sulky weigh ing ls0 pounds without toe-weights, boots or oyercheck. This fast speed must be almost natural. What could such horse do in the hands of Budd Doble on our prepared tracks in bi- cycle sulky, and other trotting ap- pliances for forcing the gait. It is as good at any rate as the speed of our best. Again, the Orloff. through his process of evolution, has been selected for soundness, shape, size and style as we'll as speed. With our trotters all except speed has been neglected. Hence the Orloff when crossed with our harness horses will give both sub stance and quality.

Mining and Scientific Press: The burlap process of saving gold. which is working satisfactorily in Idaho. is this: In the bottom of aa ordinary rocker burlap sack is placed. The
 gravel and sand are throw upon what is called grizzly or big iron sieve. The larger pieces of rock are brushed aside, the finer particles fall ing into the rocker The flour gold settles in the meshes of the sack. Every day the burlap Is washed in q tub Of clean water and the fine parti- cles of gold are thus secured. The Homestakc company for several years past have used Brussels carpets for the same purpose, over which the tailings from the mills are allowed to run. When the carpet becomes so saturated that it will not take up more, it is removed and burned. and the result always proves profitable.

An exchange states that you can read the proof of a newspaper article three or four times and repeatedly pass the same error without seeing it. All newspaper men tell you so, but as soon as the press is started and the pa- per printed in it's complete shape
 there stands the error in front of you
 so big that you can't see anything else. It's a strange fact and is pIob- ably he reason why il is so easy to edit newspaper after it is printed.
