The market is full of cough mixtures,
but one trouble with most of them is
that when they do little good the
patient has to take 50 much that he gets
to loathe the taste. The PineOla Balsam
is superior to other cough remedies be-
cause it is agreeable to the palate and its
good effects are immediate. In few
days an ordinary cough is gone altogether

born, but they too are cured BY Elys

Good Condition of sta,e Treasury.

The heads of various state depart
ments are already looking up the de-
tails of the reports to the legislature.
One thing is roseate, and that is the
condition of the state treasury. This
department is very charry about giving
out any details at all of the finances of
the state, reserving all its surprises for
the legislature in the official report of
the comptroller, but enough is known to
say that the credit of the state has been
maintained.

PNEUMATIC DYNAMITE GUNS,
The battery mt Fort Winfield Scott to
lie Turned Over to the Cove rMmcilt.

The Battery mt Fort Winfield Scott to
isc Turned Over to the Governments.
By next fall, if all goes WELL the new
battery of pneumatic dynamite guns To-
Gated at Fort Winfield Scott, on the Pre-
sidio reservation. intended for the protec-
ton of San Francisco. will be turned over
to the War Department.
This battery is composed of three fifteen
inch guns one more than the battery in
stalled at San0y IIook-for the defense of
New York harbor, and it Is SO placed as
to give 1t complete sweep of the main
channel leading up to San Francisco. At
present there but two of these bat
teries in the United States. and while it
was contemplated to install another in
Boston harbor, this project may have to
be abandoned The difficulty lies not in
lack of money, but in a serious objection
that has beer made by engineer officers
that the dynamite guns would in such
places as Boston harbor endanger the
whole of the costly and elaborate system
of submarine defenses planned for the
protection of the harbor. Wherever the
depth of the water is not too great at the
entrances to large harbors the engineers
have placed. or intend to place IN case of
war, submarine mines and anchored tor
pedoes lying beneath the surface of the
water. The accepted plan of operations
against such obstacles to the entrance of
fleet is to send ahead small torpedo
boats, which. by firing torpedoes or heavy
charges of powder in the channel, succeed
in exploding the hidden mines by the
shock and thus clearing the way for the
larger ships. This plan was used with
success by the Japanese at Port Arthur
and Wei Hal Wei, SO that the engineer off,
GERS feel that it Is necessary to protect
their mines in turn by placing them under
the lire of fire of their shore batteries,
which will be relied upon TO keep off the
torpedo boats. But in the case Of the dyn-
amite batteries 1t has been urged that the
effect of a miss in 4 shot would be to ex-
D!ode all Of the mines in the vicinity of
the place where the proiectile strikes.
This would open tho very channels that
the guns are designed to aid the mines in
keeping closed against hostile fleet. For
tunately the objection does not lie against
such harbors as that at San Francisco,
for there the water IS SO deep that subma-
it undoubtedly does apply 20 many of our
other karborS.

N o ECISlON YET
The Question of Sending War Vessel to
Cuba Being Considered
1t is Difficult to Distinguish What Is
and What is not n Fiiibustering
Expedition.

Secretary Herbert said today that it had
not yet been determined whether a war
vessel should be sent to the Florida coast
to prevent a filibustering expedition going
to assist the Cuban rebels. Navy officials
generally are of opinion that there is no
necessity for any such action by the United
States. 1t is probable that the action of
the Navy Department will depend upon
Secretary of State Olney. If he desires that
& warship patrol the coast, it no doubt will
he sent.
The position of the State Department
heretofore mas been that it is the duty Of
the United States to prevent an armed eX-
pedition going to make war upon a nation
or the possessions of a nation with which
We are at peace, but there is nothing 10
prevent the sale of arms or the munitions
of war. 1t has been held heretofore that u
torpedo boat taken apart and Shipped III
sections could not be prevented by this
government, but If the torpedo boat should
be fitted and sailed from a port CT the
United States this country would be re-
SponSiDle.
1t also has been held that this govern
ment could not be required 10 prevent men
from taking passage on a ship bound for
Cuba, unless they We're drilled and armed
force. 1t is appdrent that nice distinction
may be made between what is and what is
not hlibustering expeditions, if attempts
should be made by Americans to assist the
Cuban rebels.

Special Dispatch to The EveIi Star.
RICHMOND, Va, June 1O-Frank l..
Smith, alias Parker, the man who per-
sonated United States assayer and aided
in robbing Mr.. Alfred w. Withers of Glou-
cester county out of 5000 by means of a
gold brick swindle, is today a free man.
Judge Robert Hughes of the United Sta-es
court granted Smith bail this morning on
his own recognizance in the sum of 500.
Smith was originally in the custody of the
county court of Henrico, but on Saturday
last he was taken before Judge Isaac
Christian of New Kent county and bailed
in the sum of $1,000. He was at once ar
rested by United States officer and taken
before Judge Hughes this morning. with the
above startling result Smiths trial had
been set for the first Monday in July in the
Henrico county court, but, of course, when
his name is called he will not respond, for
it is conceded that he is only too willing to
Fay the above sum For his liberty. There
is great indignation in the city over the ac-
tion of the two judges. especially that Of
Judge Christian, as several other county
and corporation judges had either refused
to bali the gold brick man at all or had
placed the sum at such high figure that
he could not furnish the bond.
One of the judges placed it at $50, 600.
One of the most interesting features in
connection with the arrest and imprison-
ment Of Smith, alias Parker, Is the devoted
friendship of his friend, Sam Emery of
New York city. Emery has stuck by Smith
closer than a brother, and was largely in
strumental in obtaining him his liberty.
Emery married the daushter'.of a wealthy
New Yorker, and is we'll known throughout
the north. AT one time Smith had rendered
him great service. When he heard that
Smith was in trouble he came to his rescue
and opened his hand and purse His wife's
father wrote that If he. did not desert the
gold brick swindlef" he (the father-in-law)
would have nothing further to do with him.
Emery refused, and his wife sided with
her husband. The father-in-law refusing
to loan Emery money, Mrs. Emery turned
over to him her jewels, and he pawned
them and used the money to secure for
Smith his freedom.
When Judge Hughes announced his de-
cision this morning the two friends could
not restrain their joy, and made a scene in
court

PLUMS OF PATRONAGE

While the local politicians are directing
their attention, just at this time, to the
President. with view of getting several
fat Offices. they are by no means negieetinS s
the Commissioners.
With the advent of the new fiscal year,
which springs into being the first day of
July, the new appropriation bill gives the
Commissioners power to appoint twenty
five additional employees. OF this number
eleven are for the police force, ten to be
prlvates of the first class at S1o per month,
and one inspector at 81 ,5O1 per aunum. The
new fire engine company will need ten new
firemen. consisting of foreman at $1,000,
one engineer at $1,000 one hostler at sS40,
one fiji renan at $40, and ten privates at $500
per annum.
When the time arrives to make these ap-
pointments, Chief PARIS will make promo
tions, and the new appo!ntees will be sim
ply privates. This is necessary since 1t
would be unwise to equip a new company
with inexperienced men. The new police
inspector will be promoted from the present
force, and promotions made all along the
line. 1t seems generally understood that

sented to the President for the commuta
ton of his sentence to Imprisonment for
life, on the ground that he is of unsound
an affidavit signed by Drs. l. C. Ross and
T. B. Hood, as medical experts, saying that
Beam is insane, and that at the time of
the commission of the murder he was not
able to distinguish between right and
wrong.
The application for clemency was re-
ferred 10 Judge Cole and District Attorney
Birney for report. Judge Cole reported
without recommendation, but the report of
the district attorney was strongly adverse
to change in the sentence. He said there
had been no case in the District for many
years where there were less grounds for
executive clemency.
The Presidents action is shown in the
following Endorsement of the petition:
Denied. After careful examination of
the facts presented to ME in support of
the application for clemency in this case
feel obliged to decline interference with
the sentence of the court. 1t seems to me
the evidence and allegations relied on to
show the insanity of the convict falls short
of establishing that defense. The failure
of such defense gives the crime of which
the prisoner was convicted the complexion

aggravating brutality. developing no con-
siderations which. in my opinion, justify
