TO ACT AS ARBITRATOR.
The Presidents Task i'm Regard to
Brazil and Argentine.

Senior Mendonca, the Brazilian minister,
who has spent the summer in Keene valley
n. Y, has returned TO Washington presum-
posed arbitration by the President of the
United States of the missioner boundary
disputes between the Argentine Republic
and Brazil. At any rat it is announced
that he will remain here until the conciu-
sion of the extra session of Congress. Senior
Zavallos, the newly accredited minister of
the Argentine Republic. who will represent
that government in the proposed arbitra-
ton, is already here. He only awaits the re-
turn of the President to present his official
credentials
Although President Cleveland has con-
scented to act as arbitrator in this boundary
controversy, ii is believed that he will
merely act on the report of an agent, Sc
lected by him to hear the arguments of
the representatives of both governments
as his public duties will preclude the posi-
hility of his giving personal attention to all
the details necessarily associated with the
presentation of the case. This duty will
probably be delegated to some official OF
the State Department. possibly Secretary
Gresham, the President may decide Ia
select some person not officially connected
with the government to represent him
in the preliminary stages of the arbitra-
ton. Each side will present mass OF
documentary evidence supported by legal
arguments, the hearing and consideration
Of which will undoubtedly require consider
able time 1t is therefore not at all likely
that the case will be In shape for the
Presidents decision for several months
yet.

DECOY LETTER USED.
And Made Proof Against Charles
Frederick. and He is Held.

Last night Post Office Inspector Smith
arrested Charles Frederick. a colorci man
Ia Pullman employee. on the charge Of vio-
lating the postal laws fSec. $3.50. p. s U.S.)
and lodged him in the first precinct station,
and at ! o'clock today he was taken before
United States Commissioner Mills. He is
charged with having about August IA de-
vised a scheme to defraud by opening a cor
respondence with a fellow employee. one
VIM. w. Miller of Memphis. Tenn. by
means of the postal establishment with the
intent to defraud said Miller. 1t is alleged
that he wrote to Miller that his brother
him. and a decoy letter was sent to the
brother but Frederick called for and re-
ceipted for the letter.
When the case was called today 1t turned
out that his correct name was Charles
Favay. and Inspector Smith testified that
complaints had been made that letters adj
dressed to the Pullman lodging house, on
Missouri avenue had not come to hand. the
complaints were investigated. 1t was as
certained that a letter was received by Mr.
be written by him, stating that he had been
suspended as a conductor for fifteen days
and desired to visit his home. but he was
badly in want of money and asked for SIS
signing the initials of Mr.. Miller.
He also wrote that he had been to the
worlds fair. but did not like it, fo- 1t was
too much like a side show of circus. The
Memphis brother. suspecting something
wrong, did not send the money, but a
registered letter was prepared and notice
sent to Mr.. Miller at the Pullman Office
and Frederick Favay called for and re-
cepted fo- it, The prisoner did not deny
that he wrote the letter. but said he copied
IL for another party.
The commissioner committed the pris-
oner for the action of the grand jury in de-
fault of S, 900 bonds.

He May Attend,

Mr., John F. Victory. secretary of the Ma
tonal Association OF Letter Carriers was
at the Post Office Department yesterday
and invited Postmaster General Bisseil
to attend the fourth annual convention OF
the association. which is TO convene at
Kansas city, No. September 49, 1t IS
probable that Mr.. Bissell will attend This
is thought to be extremely likely in view
of the interest which the head of the de-
partment feels and manifests in the letter
Should the official duties of the Post
master General be so urgent that they will
not allow him to attend the department
VIII be represented by either M Jones'
the hrst assistant postmaster general or
Mr. Machen, the newly appointed superin-
tendent of the free delivery service All
the officials named are in close touch. with
the carriers. especially the free-delivery
superintendent.
The postmaster general told Mr.. Victory
that he felt grieved at the action of many
posting sters who attempted to shift re-
sponslblhty for the removal of carriers
from their shoulders to his. In each in
stance, Recommendation for dismissals had
been based on serious charges. The de-
partmental head thought that every car
rier whose removal is recommended should
have a full and careful hearing.

The Lynchburx Office,

Postmaster Mclaughlin Of Lynchburg
was at the Post Office Department today
His trip to Washington is mainly one Of
pleasure. but he could not withstand the
temptation to visit the department and talk
shop a little. He too. like every other post
master in the United States. save those in
the fourth class. wants increased carrier
service He has nine carriers, but he must
have ten. His Office demands an increa Sc
of one.
AS much as the department would like 10
honor his request, IL has been compelled 10
say him nay. No such thing as an increa Sc
in the line suggested can at present be en-
tertained. The free delivery division of the
Post Office Department is poor The esti-
mates submitted by ex-Superintendent of
Free Delivery Pollock We're Topped off by
Postmaster General Wanamaker TO the
tune of over half a million dollars This
has crippled the division.
Every city needs more carriers but every
appeal goes UNDECIDED. Postmaster Nc
Loughlin is a republican hold-over We IS
not decidedly vigorous partisan. and it is
thought that his scalp will remain intact
till the end of his term, two years hence
His predecessor was permitted to serve OF,

DENVER, Col. Aug 2i.-Gov. William j.
Stone of Missouri left last night for home.
In speaking of the proposed convention OF
western and southern states, Gov. Stone
said: THE idea is in accord with opinions
that have long entertained. There ought
to be efforts made to bring the south and
west into closer acquaintance. The produc-
ing states ought to get together and work
for one common interest, not on the plane
of sectionalism. however. And there Is dam
ger l see In a convention as outlined in the
call.
irresponsible men often manage to OBJ
tain appointment as delegates and some
times action is had that is not in accord
with the best business opinions of the peo-
pie they are supposed to represent. ! did
not go to the silver convention in Chicago
for fear lest something radical might be
done However, on that occasion the reso-
buttons We're well prepared and such as
could endorsed.

The paid attendance at the fair yesterday

The white city never looked more beau

workmen were busily employed in decorat-

science and trade for the reception of the
multitudes who came here today to take
part or witness the events gotten up In
honor Of the day of the proud prairie state,
and pinnacies waved gaily in the refresh
ing winds that blew from the lake.
The men at the gates were reinforced
this morning in anticipation of the crowds
to come. But even with the additional
help the gatemen had more than they could
do to keep the thousands of applicants for
admission from congesting outside the turn

CHINA's RETALIATION.
IL Will Commence, 1t is Thought, IL
Congress Does Not Act.

The communication recently received by
the President from Ii Hung Chang the
Chinese viceroy, is taken by certain officials
to mean that China will certainly retaliate
against the United States in case Congress
at its next regular session fails to modify
the Geary law SO as to make IL less oppres-
sive to the Chinese residents of the United
States. The viceroy said in his dispatch
that no retaliatory measures would be in
stituted at present by the Chinese govern
ment and that American citizens In China
Will be fully protected until the assembling
or Congress in regular session. This is
regarded as an implied threat that such
protection Will be removed in the event
OF the failure of Congress to enact the
proposed remedial legislation in the inter
ests of Chinese residing in the United
States. and Is so construed, so il is said al
the State Department. The statement al
legged to have been made to Consul Will
lam Bowman at Tien Tsfn by Niceroy Il
Hung Chang is practically the same as the
communication received by the President
from the viceroy.

Nail Biting Among Children.
From the Philadelphia Record.

NJ Berillon, the noted French physician,
finds that the habit of nail biting among
children is extremely common. In a public
school in Paris out of 265 pupils examined
during the month of April last 63-that Is
to say, nearly one-fourth-were addicted to
the practice. Curiously enough, results
vary greatly in different districts and in
different schools in the same district. 1t
seems that girls are more given to the
habit than boys. In one girls school in
the Department of Yonne IL out of q were
confirmed nail biters. In another girls
school the proportion was 81 out Of 2oI
be in the habit Of biting the nails OF both
hands, and the others OF biting only those
of one hand VI. Berillon recognizes that
nervousness has much to do with the habit.

ART APpLIEp TO DEADLY WEAPONS.
Miniature Landscape with Tiny SOIL
dters for q shooting Gallery.

From the London Daily News.
For the purpose OF teaching soldiers,
volunteers and all people who choose To
learn the art OF rifle shooting amid sur
roundings that nearly resemble nature on
a greatly reduced scale. Major Heath
has devised a very ingenious plan. In
place Of the bare walls Of barrack yards
or dingy shooting galleries he substitutes
beautiful landscape. painted with mucn
skill. and the mid-distance of this he dots
with tiny figures representing soldiers In
skirmishing order.
IL is not mere consideration for the ar
tistic soscepubihties OF young rinemeu
that induces him to cloak unslightly bricks
and mortar win counterfeit presentments
OF rural scenes There is method in IL. the
object being 10 make the figures aimed al
look much as they would when advancing
across ground that Is broken by ridges.
banks and bushes. How different shooting
at such marks is from firing at sharply
defined targets those only know who have
tried.
vie Saunders. late chief inspector OF mus
kerry in Madras is chairman, has turned
Major Heath's idea TO practical account
by setting UP one OF these miniature land
scape ranges. very cleverIy painted 10y Mr.
Bruce Smith OF Talbot place. Islington.
and there a private view OF experiments
was given yesterday. The deceptive idea
of distance was perfect. One seemed 10
be looking through the wrong END OF q
telescope at a real scene. in which red
apparently about six hundred yards on.
The actual distance is not more tnan
twenty-five yards. BY a simple contr1vance
these figures can be regulated 70 remain
visible any number of seconds. Within thar
time the mark sman must shoot or the min
iature soldier will FIRE a blank cartridge az
him and then disappear. Anxiety 10 snoot
first is an element that often dlsturbs ac-
curacy of aim in real hostilities. and when
a young marksman gets the better OF that
feeling by diligent practice at these NINA
ture targets he has made considerable pro-
gress toward proficiency IN rife shooting.
The only elements With which he has not
to contend at such practice are variable
winds and chsngeable light
The merit OF Maj. Heath's invention 10
that rifles of regulation caliber are used. the
charge Of powder and weight OF bullet being
reduced in exact proportion TO the scale of
the miniature range. There is no doubt
that by this means soldiers and volunteers
might be taught much which they could not
learn in any other way except on n full
sized range, and there is real interest In
shooting at figures that shoot back again.
though they only use blank ammunition.
Mai. Heath has at any rate introduced a
| novelty which might be set up at any vol
unteer headquarters and would be certain
to attract members Of the corps there for
the sake of practice and amusement conf
