 gard to this position it must come from

 At the White House no positive informa- tiOn could be obtained. MT. Pruden, the 1 acting private secretary, said that he had no authority to make any statement what ever. Professor Harrington himself said: "On the 18th of June the president asked for my resignation because of personal inter- | ests. declined to give it on the score of public interests, and my removal followed promptly, taking effect July 1. The per sonal interests involved were discussed by me in my letter to the president and 1 feel that haven't received just or consid- crate treatment with regard to them" Professor Harrington was appointed | from Michigan because of his long ac- | quaintance with meteorological matters,
 having been for many years the editor of | a journal devoted to that science. He was
 member of the faculty of Ann Arbor | university.
 It is said that although there is some pressure for the succession to Professor
 Harrington's position no civilian will be
 appointed to that post, as it has long been \ the desire of Secretary Morton that Major
 Dunwoody, who is thoroughly acquainted | with all the details of the weather bureau
 work and in whom he has great conf | dence, should be placed in charge. This would require a special order from
 the secretary of war and a designation by ! tho TOrnSidnnt and 1nipht also a tsa
 an appointment and confirmation by the
 senate, although it is known that Major
 Dunwoody would not relinquish his com
 mission in the army for this preferment,
 which would mean no increase in pay for him.

The Test Will Probably Take Place In the
 English Channel.
 WASHINGTON. July 3. - Commander Bradford and Lieutenant Mulligan are making preparations for the trial of the St. Louis to see if she will come within tine terms of the subsidy act as a naval auxiliary vessel. Commander Bradford said that the trial could not take place off Southampton because the water was not deep enough-that is, a course long enough and near enough to shore to make the test could not be found.
 The naval officers have been looking up the charts of the English channel to se- cure a course 40 knots long which can be measured by lighthouses or other land marks, and by the time they arc ready to sail on the 7th of August they will have everything complete.
 Some suggestion has been made that on account of the great amount of ship ping in the channel it may be difficult to get a clear course, but this probably will be obvated by the officers of the steam ship company, who are now in England making arrangements for the trial. The St. Louis will be dockcd at Southampton and made ready for a swift trial. She will be given much the same trial as is given American warships. She has already made the required speed, but not with officers on board to report it to the navy depart ment. The law requires that these ships must be capable of making 20 knots an hour in ordinary weather for four consecu- tive hours

PERRY TRANsFsR BRED.
The Train Robber Taken From Matteawal
 Asylum to Auburn Prison.

The Train Robber Taken From Matteawnn
 Asylum to Auburn Prison.
 FIsHKILL LANDING, N. r.. July B. Oliver Curtis Perry, tho train robber, was transferred from the Matteawan Insane Asylum For Insane Criminals to the Au- burn state prison. Superintendent Allison of the asylum having adjudged Perry re- covered from his insanity and ordered his return to the state prison to finish his sen tence of 59 years.
 Perry left here on the II o'clock New York Central train lest night for Auburn in charge of Supervisor Samballs of the asylum and Keeper Patterson of Auburn prison. Perry said that he was glad of the change. Dr. H. E. Allison, superintend- ent of the Matteawan asylum, gave out the following statement concerning the prisoner:
 t'When Perry came here, he was suffer ing from active delusions of persecution. He imagined that he was being bounded by the American Express company and by the prison officials, who were in league with the express company to put him out of the way. He persisted in these ideas for some time after coming here. He also had hallucinations of hearing and of sight, which continued for q considerable time and gradually ceased. For some time past he has apparently been free from any ac- tive mental disturbances.
 ''He manifests in his character a dispo- sition to deceit and viciousness, which un- doubtedly renders him a person difficult to handle. In view, however, of his mental condition and the fact of the activity of his delusion having passed away, it will be for his interest and for the interests of the state to accord him trial at the prison. For that reason it has been deemed advis- able to transfer him. Since Perry's first admission he has improved very much physically and has gained greatly in weight and health.
 Perry's return to the asylum following his unsuccessful attempt to escape he began making plans to again get away from the institution, and approached the keeper who was with him with offers of reward if he would carry letters out of the asylum for him and also give him information about the location of various parts of the institution. The attendant informed Su- perintendent Allison of what Perry had said to him. and was instructed to humor the train robber in the way he. desired. The keeper thereupon carried letters from Perry to the mail, first allowing Dr. Ali son to take copies of them, and led Perry on to think that he was helping him in his schemes. After the authorities had learned through this attendant what Per- ry was doing and what his intentions were they transferred him to his old cell in the isolation ward.'
