No Better Choice Could be made.

The name of Hon. E. V. Chavez, of this
city, is being freely used in connection
with the delegateship, and the Advertiser
desires to say that, would he accept, no
better could be made. Mr.. Chavez is a
firm Democrat and an honest man, as
conscientious in the handling of public
frost as he is in his private business. His
public and private record would give his
political enemies no room for political
fight such as was carried on in
the last campaign, and make his support
upon the part of every Democrat a
pleasure, as we'll as political duty. How
ever, the question is, would he accept'
Mr.. Chavez has growing law practice
that would be sacrificed for the doubtful
honor of two years in congress, and, of
course, his personal interests must be con-
suited, although he has been forced to

REMARKABLE TEST OF POWDER.

WASHINGTON, July p, 1s94.-The Naval
Ordinance officials who are conducting ex-
haustive experiments at the Indian Head
proving ground With the view of obtaining
a satisfactory smokeless explosive for big
guns, were astonished yesterday by the re-
markable results obtained with sample
submitted by an American company.
With S5 pounds of Leonard netroglycerine
smokeless powder behind 250 pound pro-
jectile in an S-inch rifle, the enormous muz-
zle velocity of 2,650 feet per second was Sc
cured with chamber pressure of only 14.S
tons.
What remarkable velocity this is can De
appreciated only by comparing it with the
best Brown hexagonal powder, the
regular service explosive which, under
similar conditions. gives but 2, 100 feet
velocity with fifteen tons pressure. The
Leonard powder, however, is a nitro glycer-
inc compound, and its keeping qualities have
yet to be demonstrated. In the naval SER
vice, where the vessels take long cruises
frequently in tropical latitudes, ex-
plosives composed in part of nitro
glycerine have deteriorated rapidly and
soon become unfit for use. If the new pow
der however, meets the expecta-
tions of its makers, who claim to
have provided against the development
of defects by keeping; the navy has at last
secured smokeless explosive incomparably
superior to any possessed by European ma

Donald McCreig, eighteen years old, of No,
All York street, is one of the nude bathers
against whom complaint has been made.
McCreig and young men of his age have
been bathing IN the canal in a nude cendi+
ton. THE JERSEY CITY News called the
attention of the police to the indecency OF
the proceeding, and as a result, Chief
Murphy has given orders to suppress it.
Justice Potts this morning reprimanded
McCreig severely. He told him that the
Press and public were against the nude
swimming nuisance, and that he proposed
doing all in his power to aid the police in
breaking up the practice. McCreig was
paroled with the understanding that if he
was arrested again for the same offense he
would be sent to Jail.
Chief of Police Murphy dislikes to deprive
the boys and young men of the privilege OF
swimming in the canal He has decided to
permit it with the understanding that
tights be worn. In the meantime he pro-
poses requesting the Street and Water Conn
missioners to erect high board fence on
either side of the canal.

keeps out Of controversy for the present the
disputed question whether such motion is

Several passages in the official report are

bill can pass the Senate unless such conces

Democratic votes.
Mr.. President, in the process of arriving
at measure that would command 43 votes
in the Senate, it goes without saying there
are none so fond and foolish as not to know
that concession was necessary on one side and
the other. OF course views had to be conprom-

China Buying Much Costly Mill

WASHINGTON, July 2l, 1894. United
States Consul Sheridan Read, at Tien Tsin,
China, reports to the State Department
that he has received information from re
liable source that the customs total of that
port representing officially and as amin
dividual the big cotton mills now being
erected at Shanghai and elsewhere in Cen
tral China, has placed orders with Euro
pean firm in Tien 1sin for cotton mill ma
chinery amounting to nearly a million dol
lars, Mexican.
1t is said that these orders will be exc
cuted for the most part in England. The
Consul desires TO call the attention of Ameri-
can manufacturers of such machinery to the
fact that many mills are now springing up
in various parts of China and they are yet
to be supplied with machinery.
He understands that certain kinds of cot
ton machinery manufactured in America
are productive of better results and are as
cheap If not cheaper than similar machinery
made either in England or on the Continent.
Where such superiority exists American
manufacturers should be able to obtain a
fair share of the Chinese orders soon to be
placed

WANT AMERICAN BEEF.
Farmers of Switzerland Don't Care
to XIII Their own Cattle.


WASHINGTON, July 21, 1S94-Eugene
Germain, United States Consul at Zurich,
reports to the State Department that there is
great opportunity just now for the export
of American beef to Switzerland. This con-
dition is brought about by the failure of the
hay crop which compelled every farmer to
dispose Of whatever surplus animal he was
possessed of. As the crop prospects are now
good, the farmers not only refuse to sell
stock, but are willing to purchase animals at
high figures. Mr.. Zingg, No, IL Schuetzen-
.gasse, Zurich, the President of the Swiss
Butchers Association overland Schweitzer-
ischer MetzgerIneister), an organization con-
trolling the purchase of all foreign beef
cattle imported into Switzerland, told Mr..
German that the association was ready to
enter into negotiations with American cattle
men with view to purchase beef cattle.
The association, he said, could handle ship
load of about 100 head-550 beeyes and 15O
to 200 young bulls at any time. For good
animals on foot S15.74 per 220 pounds will
be paid or S30SS for the same quantity OF
dressed beef

GRAIN TOUCHES BOTTOM.

NEW YORK, July 21, 1S94.-The lowest
prices ever seen in the grain market were
made this morning both in New York and
Chicago markets on both cash and futures.
At New York cash wheat was 55 rs C. and
September 81 ZIG c. The break in Chicago
carried September to 54115, and cash to
5224c.
The immediate break was duet fuather
liquidrtion, weak cables and continued free
movement of new winter wheat, while the
general depression seems to be due to better
crops than was expected all over the world,
absence of speculative interest in the mar
ket and the general Encouragement of bust
