The Question Raised Over the Picture
From Painter Watts.

Although somewhat premature, a ques-
ton has already arisen as to the propriety
of hanging in the White House the large
canvas, entitled Love and Life" painted
by MIR. G. F. Watts, the famous English
artist, which painting was one of the most
prominent features of the British section
of the art gallery at the worlds fair. 1t
is one of the best works of that artist and
has received unqualified praise from
American and foreign critics. At the close
of the exposition Mr.. Watts presented the
painting to the United States government
for exhibition in its national museum of
art whenever such institution was found
ed" The gift was made by the artist to
show his admiration for this country and
his appreciation Of the hospitality of the
American people.
In the early part Of the second session
Congress passed an act accepting the gift
and requesting the President to thank the
donor. The Secretary of State conveyed
the Presidents thanks to Mr. Watts In
proper form and is now awaiting the re-
turn Of the President in order to deter
mine the future disposition of the painting
1t was brought here from Chicago and re-
mained at the Georgetown custom house
until about a month ago, when it was
transferred to the White House for safe
keeping. Col. Wilson, commissioner of pub
Hc buildings and grounds, who has charge
or the White House, received II at the re-
quest of the Secretary OF State and placed
ii In the basement of the mansion until q
permanent place shall be selected for it.
The embarrassment in regard to the dis
position Of this picture is due to the fact
that 1t Is a striking example of the nude
In art 1t is an immense canvas containing
two nude figures, the female representing
love and the male representing life. Both
are admirably executed and the drawing is
beyond criticism. The male figure is that
OF a young man with widespread wings
leaning toward the woman, who bends be-
fore him in a supplicating attitude. Neither
would attract invidious comment In an art
gallery, but In the White House either of
these nude figures alone might excite un-
favorable comment
Thsre Is nothing in the act that requires
the exhibition of the painting in the White
House and there is no reson to believe that
IL will be hung there, especially in view
of the fact that there is no suitable place
IN the house Tor II. A suggestion that meets
placed on exhibition in the Corcoran Art
Gallery, and II Is more than probable that
this viii be done. The settlement of the
question:, however, depends altogether upon
the wishes of the President and IL is ex-
pected that he will act upon IL soon after
his return to the city. Neither Assistant
Secretary Rockhill of the State DEPART
ment, who conducted the CORRESPONDENCE
with Mr. Watts on this subject, nor Col
Wilson, who was temporarily the custodian
Of the painting. cares to discuss the cues
ton OF propriety in this matter, and each
deprecated any attempt to make a Sensation
out of IL. Neither of them has seen The
painting. as IL has not been unpacked since
1t arrived In the city.

THE PRESIDENTS: PLANS
Not Known What Day BE: Will Reach
Here.

The Presidents holiday has ended, and he
is now on his way to this City to reassume
the cares AID res sponsiDihties of his high
Office. in consequence ofI<i5e secrecy mani
tested in regard to his Movements and pur-
poses, 1T is almost iLIposs ible, at this writ
ing, to say exactly when he may be ex-
pected to reach the rational capital, There
are too many contingencies to admit of
anything better than a good guess. There
is great difference of opinion as to his
Intentions. One story Is that he will cer-
tainly stop over in New York to register
In order To register he will either have to
remain there until Friday. delay his ar
rival there until that day or make a special
trip to New York ON Friday or Saturday
as those are the only days Tor registration.
Another story is that he will spend tonight
in New York city and come on to WASH
irgton tomorrow. This plan would enable
him TO confer personally with some of the
democratic leaders in New York city in re-
gard to the conduct of the campaign in that
state and would also serve to dissipate all
doubt that may exist as to his attitude to-
ward the .iennC cratic ticket, state and city.
Another story, and one that finds more
beieVers than either of the others, is that
ne VIII leave the railroad train, with Mrs.
Cleveland and the children, at Greenwich,
conn, Tor The purpose of visiting his old
friends, MIR. and Mrs. Benedict. There are
lWo tneoTieS IN regard TO this arrangement.
one is tnat the President will merely spend
the night at Greenwich and come on direct
to Washington tomorrow. The other is that
ne will extend his visit to Mr.. Benedict up
to Friday. and then go. to New York to
register before continuing his journey to
this city. Greenwich is on the route from
Providence TO New York, and is only about
an hours run from the latter city.
Although there Is no one at the White
House who will confess a knowledge on the
subject, there are surface indications that
the President is expected to reach there
some time tomorrow afternoon or evening.
Private Secretary Thurber, who was ex-
pected to arrive here from Detroit last
evening, has telegraphed that he has been
delayed, but Will reach here tonight.
Suspicion Of Ducks.
The arrival here of the Presidents favor
lite yacht the light house tender Violet.
has given rise to a report that he and Sec
retary Carlisle have arranged for another
duck-shooting expedition in the waters of
North Carolina leaving here soon after the
President returns to the city. No informa-
tion on this subject can be obtained at
the Treasury Department or White House.
At the office of the light house board ii
Is said that there Is no Significance In the
present visit of the Violet that she is here
strictly on light house business, but that
she Is at the disposal of the President or
the Secretary of the Treasury. 81 course,
In case either or both of them desire to
make use of her.

Supreme Court Decisions.

Chief Justice Fuller yesterday affirmed
the opinion OF the supreme court of Mis-
sissippi in dismissing the suit of Charles
c. Buck and the Plauquemines Fruit Com
pany against the state. over the ownership
OF $1,000 acres of swamp and overfiowed
land on the bank of the river. The chief
justice held that the United States Supreme
Court has no Jurisdiction.
Justic Brown handed down the decision
OF the court In the patent infringement
suits OF VIM. Wright VS.. u. G. Yuengling
and Johnston Beggs. The court held that
Wright's device, an improved frame for
horizontal engines. does not rise to the
dignity OF an invention and that therefore
there is no infringement. The similar de-
cision Of the United States Circuit Court
for the southern district OF New York was
therefore affirmed.

JAPANESE INDUSTRIES.
Stati5tics Showing the Commercial
Importance of the MikadO's Realm.

Eugene German, United States consul at
Zurich, has transmitted to the Department
OF State an elaborate report upon the COM
merce and industries of Japan, made up by
the Swiss vice consul at Yokohama. The
total imports of Japan for 1888 amounted
in value to sSs,257,17l, or $17,OO0OOO in ex-
cess of 1892. The exports for 1888 were
$50. T12, SOL, as against sol. .lO2. 754 in 1892
excess over imports of 81. .45J. .693. The prin-
cipal exports outside OF silks were rice and
tea. There was a decrease in the exports
of tea as compared with lSJ2, America be-
ing the principal, not to say the only, buyer
Of Japan tea, and the crisis in the United
States reducing consumption. Prices of
Japan tea fell To low point and number
of farmers stopped planting, replacing tea
with barley and other cereals The exports
of rice--one-half of the total agricultural
production of Japan-amounted in value in
1895 to 1901, lJ6, against 81, 49, 451 in
1892.
The cotton spinning industry is making
great strides. In 1887 there were twenty
four mills with 10000 spindles, and in 1888
there We're fOrty-three mills with $50 2jJ
spindles. Manual labor being cheap, the
spinners can meet all outside competition,
and the foreign imports of cotton have
fallen of considerably since 1883. japanese
cottons are also being exported with grow
ing success, especially TO China. Japanese
cigarettes. like the American In FORM made
of packing, etc, were also exported in 1888
to the amount Of SO, ,S35, while the straw
mat makers can hardly meet the increas-
Ing demand from the United States.
The silk crop for this year probably will
not reach the export figures for the last
year, owing to the untoward conditions.
The exports TO the United States for 1888
Y ere 1881 bales, as against 81, l92 bales in
lSE2, showing how severely the silk indus
try Of America has been affected by the
crisis.

AN RUE EPORT
The Russian Minister Denies Story as to
the Council Of State.
IL Will Meet After the summer vaca-
tion-No Rule Compelling the Heir
of the Throne to Marry.

Prince Cantacuzene the Russian minister.
authorizes the denial as a canard of a SEN
sational publication to the effect that the
Russian council Of state had been con-
vened for the first time since the assassina-
ton Of Alexander /, in 1881. THE report
should be fiatly denied" said the minister,
who regrets that the critical illness OF the
Russian emperor should be used for the In
ventIon OF such inaugurative fictions.
Prince Cantacuzene pointed out that the
report is manifestly untrue In the state
ment that an embassy at Washington has
received such Information, and absurd in
the exciting details which are said TO fol-
low the assembling of the council of state
Inc minister is in close communication
with the ambassadors here only two of
whom are now in the city, and he is sat
isfied the report lid not come from them
as they would not make such statements
much less commit the errors of fact as TO
the council of state.
In Continuous Session.
Instead Of this council Of state being an
extraordinary meeting for the first time I'm
years." said the minister lit has been in
continuous session for years. and its meet
ings are daily, except during the usual sum-
mer vacation. 1t is a general cabinet, made
up of the leading men of the empire 1t ex-
separated for their summer vacation, and
they will come together again naturally and
necessarily the latter part of this month or
the early part of November. And, in any
event, this council of state has no jurisdic-
tion over the question of succession to the
throne"
The minister receives cables daily, but, he
says, they have not and will not refer to the
arrival of Princess Alix at Livadia or to the
prospective marriage with the czarewitch
until after Ii Is consummated. The minister
was asked as to the statement that the
marriage was a necessity owing to a rule Of
the Romanoh family that the emperor
should be married and have an heir, and
that IL the czarewitch remained unmarried
he would necessarily have to renounce cne
throne.
No Rule ms to Marriage.
There is no such rule" said the minis
ter ''On the contrary, Alexander / was
childless. There has Iever been a case
where the heir renounced the succession.
Constantine. who succeeded Alexander be-
cause the latter was childless, renounced
the throne, but Constantine was not a
son and heir" The distinction is impor-
tant, Minister Cantacuzene pointed out,
owing to the fact that the people recognize
the child and heir as successor by the ci-
vine law Of kirgs, and there has never
been a case IN Russia or elsewhere in
which the direct heir has renounced. 1t Is
only as in the case of Constantine, who
was relative, but not the heir, that the
succession was renounced. 1t is evident,
therefore, said the minister. to those who
understand the affairs of Russia, that the
cars son, the Grand Duke Nicholas, must
succeed as emperor. and that the talk of
the other successors is doubtful specula-
ton.

SLIGHTLY BETTER,

Republicans Have the Advantage Now
After a week spent in hearing democratic
claims in different parts Of the state, 1t is
the writer's opinion that If the election were
held today Morton would be elected by 25,-
900 plurality. There is a sentiment running
through each town and city that this is a
republican year. and this sentiment is in
directly making votes for Morton. The
democrats are hopeful, rather than conf
dent; the republicans are overconfdent.
1t is true that Hill expects to be elected,
although he is paving the way for a grace
full defeat If it does come. Chances now
favor the republicans, but the two most i'm
portant weeks of the campaign are yet to
come. The republican strength has reached
it's height, unless the democrats make some
fatal blunder at the last moment, which is
not probable.
The question is now whether the demo-
Gratis can increase their strength enough 70
overcome this 5000 votes. Hill is known
to be excellent in making Garrison finishes
few deals in this city would work Won
ders with the result, and no stone will be
left unturned by Hill and his men to make
these arrangements. The odds are against
Hill today, but he has two weeks to over
come them.
