NEW YORK APPOINTMENTS.
The Slate, 1t is Said, Soon to BE Sen
to the Senate.

Now that the controversy over the Su-
preme Court vacancy has been settled 1t
is not probable that there will be any fur
ther delay in the matter of federal ap-
pointmerts in New York. There are indi-
cations that the slate is made up and that
1t will be submitted to the tender mercies
of the Senate in a day or two.
The appointments to be made include a
marshal and a district attorney for the
southern district, a district attorney for
the northern district, two internal revenue
collectors in New York city, surveyor of
customs, naval offices. &c. The indications
are that Mr.. Herman of Buffalo will be ap-
pointed district attorney for the northern
district, Mr.. Nelson Smith, a Tammany
man, district attorney for the southern
district and that Mr.. Edward Crosse may
be appointed collector of internal revenue.
1t is said that nominations for all these
offices will be made very soon by the Pres
ident,

EXPERIMENT STATIONS.
A PIe:, for Them to Continue ax nt
Present Organized.

The grangers of the country have be-
come alarmed at the suggestion that Con-
gress will not make appropriations for con-
unuing the work of the agricultural experi-
ment stations. From the annual report of
the Secretary of Agriculture mention was
omitted, and when the matter was called
to the attention of Secretary Morton, he
explained that as the department was not
given supervision over the stations he did
not think their expenses should be charged
to the department in the appropriation esti-
mates.
To urge a continuation of government
support for the stations and to combat the
proposal to place them under the manage
ment of the department, Gen. J. H. Big
ham of Delta, Ohio. addressed the House
committee on agriculture yesterday. He
said: An experiment station is essentially
an educational Institution, and its best SER
vice to the farmer is to be looked for not
In single brilliant discoveries, but in such
an increase of tested and accurate knoN,l-
edge as shall enable the farmer to conduct
his business more intelllgently and with
greater profit. Reviewing the scope of the
experiment stations, he showed that they
had dealt with the natural sciences air and
water. soil. fertilizers, plants. foods, ami
mails, entomology, dairying. technology az
ricultural engineering and statistics. Nalu-
able work was done by them in these lines
particularly on the subjects of stock feed
ing ana dalrylng.
Such work could not be done by indi-
vidual farmers because they lack time
scientific education necessary for it. and
their business is not a large enough
scale. Other nations, he showed, do more
than the United States in this line To
leave the stations to the care of the states
would deprive the newer and poorer states,
most in need of them Of their advantages.
Under the present system the states are
required to furnish buildings, and other
aid given by them in the year ending June
30, lS92 amounted to $301, I02. Govern
ment supervision should be so managed
as TO leave the stations free to take the
initiative in their work, adapting II to the
nat tIral conditions and needs of their To-
calities. When the Hatch bill was enacted
much thought had been given to that as
pect of the matter, and it seemed that a
system giving practical autonomy to the
stations, leaving them free from detailed
dictation by central authority, would pro-
duce the best results. Original inVestiga-
tions could not, with the best results, be
made according to a program laid down in
advance.
He concluded: "It is feared that extern
sion government supervision, which re-
taken by the stations, would result i'm MAX
ing them simply branches of the supervis-
ing department, and their officers substan-
TALLY subordinates of that department
Under such conditions men of first-rate
ability would seldom be attracted 10, or
retained in, station work"

FOREMAN OF PRESS WORK.
Resolutions Presented to the senate
Today by Mr. Henderson

Senator Manderson today presented to the
Senate resolutions adopted on the 18th in
slant by the Printing Pressmen's Union
No. ?. of Omaha, asking for the passage of
H. r. 4131 or S. 1902. creating the Office Of
foreman of press work at the government
printing office. The paper sets forth that
the affairs in the press room of the office
are in a deplorable condition. owing 10 the
fact that it is now under the immediate
charge and control of the foreman of prinf-
ing. who has no practical knowledge of
press work, and who is a member of the
International Typographical Union, and
owing to their antagonism members Of The
International Pressmen's Union are grossly
Disseminated against and cannot without
great difficulty, obtain a position. Pro-
pr-etors of large printing houses throughout
the country recognize the fact that a COM
positor has not the knowledge to enable
him TO either ably or economically manage
a press room"

1t was decided that the contending sides

There is an evident desire on the part OF
the committee to permit the company to

want to adjudicate the debt question against
the company, nor, at the same time, does il
want to nullify the citys right to prosecute

THE WRECKS AT ST. PIERRE
The Losses Not So Heavy as at First Sup
posed.

Ihe Losses Not 50 Heavy as at First sup
posed.
ST. JOINS, n. F., Oct. LIT has been
learned that all but eight of the vessels
that went ashore at st. Pierre Miquelon
on Tuesday night came off on the high
tide The vessels that remain stranded
are the st. Julian, Mistral, Floride, El
Pourtant Ali Baba pilot boat No 2, JAS
min and Capelan. The Capelan, the last
vessel that went ashore, had crew of
twenty men, 1t was reported that all on
board of her were drowned, but it turns
out that they were saved by other vessels.
The gale sprang up from the northeast
at 10 o'clock Tuesday night with sudden
violence. 1t was soon blowing with hurri-
cane force, and so continued until day
break Wednesday. Fog horns from the
distressed vessels continued blowing
throughout the night. Courageous efforts
to render assistance We're made by the
crews on board the tugboats Progress and
Emile, but little aid could be given.
Some idea of the force Of the gale may
be formed when it Is stated that every
vessel that went ashore dragged from her
anchorage with three anchors out. The
extent Of the loss and the severity of the
storm was never equalled in st, Pierre.

HEALTH or THE GAR
It Is Said That He Has Suffered
a Serious Relapse,
PROFESSOR LEYDGTs CONFIDENCE.

The Distinguished German Physician BE
lievcs lie Can EGrct Cure, Though the
Ruler Himself Has Abandoned Hope.
Cause of the Cars Worriment.
BERLIN, oct IA member of the staff
of the Russian embassy, of this city. i'm.
formed the Associated Press correspondent
last evening that the reason Professor
Leyden was for the second time called TO
attend the car was because the distin-
guishcd sufferer has suffered relapse
This is shown in his greatly increased
difficulty in breathing and in repeated
periods Of unconsciousnoss. Within the
last week the cars nervousness has grown
worse so rapidly as to make him irritable,
greatly lcssenng his chances of recovery.
The informant of the Associated Press
! added that, although the car fully cX-
poets to die, he is eager for his removal to
Corfu, the latter step becoming imperative
If the only chance to save his life is utilized.
Professor Leyden will reach Livadia to
| morrow night, and will accompany the
car to Corfu, where he will remain until
/ the crisis is over, having received six
| months leave Of absence from the Prussian
| government The distinguished German
| specialist persists in his rather favorable
| diagnosis Of the cars case, and fully be-
| lieves that if left entirely in his hands he
| will be able to effect a cure. Professor
| Leyden has taken to Livadia liberal sup
| ply of drugs his operating tools and new
| remedy, supposed to be a specific against
the disease, prepared by Professor Koch
and in which Professor Koch and Profes
! sor Leyden both have much hope.
I The officials of the Russian embassy
have no doubt that the car has the best
/ chance obtainable in Professor Leyden's
| hands, because he is to place himself un
reservedly under the orders Of the German
physician and has, as a preliminary, dis
missed Professor Zacharin.
The reason for the cars incessant worry
| ing was first about the plainly approaching
| death of his son George, and secondly, the
| conduct of the czarowitz, who stubbornly
refuses to marry Princess Alix. The reason
assigned for this refusal is the great Low,
| of the CzarOwitz for his mistress "a mos
! beautiful Jewess, who seems to have S,
great n hold upon him that for the sake O
keeping her he has offered to rcnounce hi
right of succession to the throne. But th
car will not permit this not approving o
it for family reasons At the same tim
the car fears for the welfare of Russia
and perhaps for the peace Of Europe, if
regency is necessary
These worries, Prof Leyden asserts
constitute the greatest feature of the czar'
case
