REPRIETE FOR Il MURDERER.
1t Raises a Singular Discussion Regard

1t Raises a Singular Discussion Regard
ing Warden HaIe's Stdtus.
SACRAMENTO, CAL, April 10.-The
reprieve granted by Governor Budd in the
case of William Leary, who was sentenced
to be hanged at San Quentin tomorrow,
has given rise to a singular discussion
upon the subject, and the question is
asked, Could Leary have been legally
executed in case the Governor had failed
to grant him respite2 Also, would not
Warden Hale, in executing Leary, be
guilty of technical murder?
1t is claimed by an ex-Prison Director
that as Warden Hale was elected to that
position for a space of four years his term
of Office expired on the 1st of April, and
that, in reality, the position is vacant, and
San Quentin, at the present time, has no
Warden, and consequently no official is
empowered to carry into effect death sem
tence.
That this is the case can hardly be denied,
and it is believed that the Governor has
not failed to overlook the possibility of
legal interference on the part of
Leary's counsel in the matter, and to a GER
tain extent this has probably influenced
him in granting the reprieve.
In case he had not done so it is more
than probable that Leary's counsel would
have raised the question of legal right on
the part of Warden Hale, and got out a
writ of prohibition until the matter could
have been decided by the courts.
On the other hand, it is claimed that
Hale is legally Warden until reappeinted
or until his successor relieves him. This
question is exciting much interest in GER
tain circles in this city, and is subject Of
warm discussion.

OFF FROM THE WAYS.
This Time There Is No Hitch

Into the River.
EVERYTHING PASSES SMOOTHLY
Spectators by the Thousand See
the Ocean Monster Glide
Into the Depths.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, April 1o.-The
new American liner st. Paul was success
fully launched from Cramps shipyard to-
day, and now lies on the waters of the
Delaware, cables length from her twin
sister, the st. Louis-two wonderful
achievements of modern marine architec-
ture. American in every feature. AS if to
atone for the conditions, atmospheric and
otherwise, which rendered the trial of two
weeks ago so unfortunate, everything was
suspicious.
The weather was April in her loveliest
mood. and there was no one in that vast
multitude who did not feel and respond to
her gentle touch. Even the marine mon
ster herself, beautiful in her bigness,
seemed imbued with the influence OF the
scene. She did not pause or hesitate IN
her brief triumphal journey down the ways,
but like her celebrated prototype, she
seemed to leap with one exulting joyous
bounds' into the embrace of the silvery
waters, sparkling in the afternoon sun.
Of course the greatest animation was on
the christening stand filled to its capacity
with guests of the Cramps and the Inter
national Navigation Company, which
owns the vessel.
Not the least picturesque feature of the
scene was the river, dotted with craft of all
sorts and descriptions, which were prompt
with their discordant whistles when the
all-important moment arrived.
The steamer was christened by Miss
Francis Griscom, daughter of the president
of the International Navigation Company.
The launching was witnessed by the Gov
ernor and members of both branches of
the Legislature.

DENVER, Colo, April 10. : United
States Senator John M. Thurston of
Nebraska, who arrived in Denver from the
Pacific Coast to-day, said in an interview:
Governor Mckinley, in my mind, is
the ideal Presidential candidate, and l
am of the opinion that he will be the
next nominee. and will sweep the country
by such an immense majority as was never
known before. The platform of the Re-
publican party in 1896 will be bimetallism
and protection, and if the party makes it,
Mckinley will surely stand by it, notwith-
standing reports that he is an enemy to
silver. I believe, and always did, that
Mr.. Mckinley is the friend of silver, al
though he may not be as enthusiastic as I
am. At all events, the West will be given
every reasonable consideration in the next
Republican Convention"

Los ANGELES INSURANCE RATES.

by the "Free Lances.v
LOS ANGELES, CAL, April 10.-At a
meeting of the local board of Fire Under
writer's this evening, it was agreed mem
bers should cease rate-cutting for the
present. This resolution is not likely to
improve the situation, however, as two of
the companies outside the union are slash
ing rates right and left, and members of
the board are compelled to meet the cuts
in self-protection. The companies referred
to are taking risks for almost nothing, and
the board is endeavoring to force them into
the compact, and put an end to the ruinous
competition.
AS an illustration of the rates the 'free
lance" companies are offering one of them
to-day quoted yearly premium of $S2 Y,
as against 1904 charged by the board of
underwriters on policy of $4,000 on the
City Hall.
Another meeting of the board will be
called shortly to carry the war into Africa
if necessary. Most of the agents say that
if the war becomes general it will be disas-
trous to both insured and insurers. Agents
commissions, they say, will dwindle to
nothing, and the revenues of the compa-
MES will be so decreased that many of the
smaller ones will be forced out of business.
The transfer of the risks they carry to
other companies will, they say, be an in

There were no changes in other varieties.

THE DOGS BARK.
It Is an Evolution OF the UncuItured Yelp-
ing or Old.

1t Is IN Evolution OF the UncuItured Yelp-
ing or DID,
The most curious imitation which we
find in dogs is as to the measure of ex-
preston to which they have attained.
Among the savage forefsthers of the
modern dog the characteristic of all
their utterance was, to a great extent,
involuntary, and, once begun, the out
cry was continued in mechanical
manner, says Scribner's Magazine
The effect of advancing culture on
the dog, however, has been gradually
to decrease this ancient undifferenti-
ated mode of expression by howling
and yelpiug, and to replace it by the
much more speech-lil1e bark. There is
some doubt whether dogs possessed by
SavageS have the power of uttering the
the sharp, specialized note which is so
characteristic of the civilized form of
their species.
1t is clear, however, that if they have
the power of thus expressing them
selves, they used it but rarely. On the
other hand, our high-bred dogs have,
to great extent, lost the power to ex-
press themselves in the ancient way.
Many of our breeds appear to have be-
come incapable of ululating. There is
no doubt but the change in the mode of
expression greatly increases the capac-
ity of our dogs to set forth their states
of mind.
If we watch high-bred dog-one
with a wide range of sensibilities,
which we may find in breeds which
have long been closely associated with
man-we may readily note five or six
varieties of sound in the bark, each of
which is clearly related to a certain
state of mind That of welcome, of
fear, of rage, of doubt, and of pure
fun, are almost always perfectly dis
tinct to the educated ear, and this, al
though the observer may not be ac-
quainted with the creature. If he
knows him well he may be able to dis
tinguish various other intonations-
those which express impatience, and
even an element of sorrow. This last
note verges toward howl.
