TO TEST THEIR DIPLOMACY
AspirantS for Consular Positions Should
Be Letter Perfect
Proposition to Hold Competitive Examinations
for Hen Who Want to Secure
Foreign Positions

WASHINGTON, June 25-Probably
about the result OF the success of the at
tempt to secure consular clerk by COM
pctitive examination, the attention of
Secretary Olney has beeen dra wn to the
feasibility of choosing United States con-
suls in similar fashion, which would be
in measure in the line of civil servic e
reform. There are at present about 400
consular places and at every ch ange in
the administration the pressure brought
to bear upon the president and secretary
OF state to insure appointments to this
service is overwhelming, and the many
changes which result in the personnel in
variably throw the entire service into con-
fusion and suspend for considerable
time its beneficial workings. Secretary
Olney's attention has been drawn to thu
fact that in the istra ton of Pres
dent Grant rule was made by the presi-
dent requiring all the consuls to be ex-
ahmed by diplomatic board prior tc the
appointment, and it is possible he may
revive and exteld the workings of this
rule, if the president consents. These
officials, according to the constitution,
must be confirmed by the senate, there
fore the selection of consul by com petit
tive examination would not necessarily
be tantamout to an appointment, for
the senate could exercise its power OF the
rejection OF the examination.
a strong point has been made by the
superior record of the few consuls now
remaining in the service who were ap-
pointed by Grant after examination.

Any Attempt to Form a Party in San Fran

WASHINGTON, June 25.-It is prob
able the government authorities con-
cerned in observance OF neutrality laws
will have to turn theii attention to the
tilibustering expedition against Hawaii,
as we'll as those against Florida. Hawai-
ian officers have been cognizant some
time of the plans at San Francisco to fit
out an expedition intenued TO overthrow
the Dole government, and their agents on
the coast have been active in securing in
formation. News from Hawaii has shown
that the authorities took grave view of
the matter. A small government craft
used tor customs purposes was fitted up
with gatling guns and sent on a cruise
around the islands to watch for the cx-
petition. Land forces under Colonel Nc
Lean. who recently went from Washing
ton to assume command. We're put in
readiness for an expected descent The
new Ha waiian law provides for exclusion
OF persons suspected of having designs
against the government. The Hawaiian
legation here is closed for the summer
and the new minister has not yet arrived.
Charge d Affaires Hastings is in Maine,
but keeps in communication with Wash
ington on pending business. 1t is not
known whether the Hawaiian officials
have called the attention of the state de
partment to the filibustering plans. 1t is
said, however, that this would not be
necessary in order to have the United
States authorities act if the expedition
has assumed definite shape as stated
in today's dispatches fresh from the
Pacific coast. 1t is sai,; that suppress
of liliuustering under the neutrality laws
applies to Hawaii exactly as it does to
Spain. and the extent of this application
was shown in the presidents recent proc
lamation and orders of Secretary Olney
and Attorney General Harmon.

GERMANY'S NEW AMBASSADOR
Baron Won Thieinan Presents His Credentials
at Washington

WASHINGTON. juno 25.-Baron Won
Thielmann, the new German am bassa-
dor. who presented his credentials to the
state department yesterday. gave the AS
sociated Press an interview today on cur
rent German American questions.
What arc the prospects,, he was
asked, "that Germany will participate
in an international monetary confer
ence?"
The agitation for silver" he said
"comes mainly from the agrarian popu-
laton in the north of Germany and is
largely due to the low prices of farm pro-
Duets
He did not believe the imperial gov
eminent would take any steps toward the
calling OF an international monetary con-
ference until after the reichstag Assem- bled
in November, and great deal would de-
pend upon that body.
When asked if Germany intended to re.
move the restrictions put IN force last

bassador replied that this would not be
delayed after Germany was assured that
American cattle we've free from Texas

SAN BERNARDINO o, June 25.-william
Neal, an employee in one of the many
wood yards near Hesperia, thirty six
miles north OF this city, was shot and in
stantly killed yesterday evening by J. e.
Douglass, also employed in the yards.
The murderer is still at large and is re-
ported to have started over the mountains
toward this city. Sheriffs posses are in
the hills north of town and are guarding
the pass through the mountains, but mp
to O'Clock no report OF his capture has
been made.
The scene Of the murder is about nine
miles from Hesperia, which is a lonely
station on the farther side of the noun
tain. and information in reference to the
tragedy is very hard to obtain.
A few days ago at neighborhood party
some one of the boys of the families in
terested in the homicide quarreled over
game at croquet. The quarrel finally
grew into fight and Douglass acted as
peace-maker, compelling the boys to de
sist. One of the boys, a relative of Neal,
was handled little roughly by Doug
lass, and Neal seems to have taken up
the quarrel. Yesterday evening after
work four or five workmen. including
Neal and Douglass, were in group
when, according to the reports, Douglass
came up behind Neal and fired his revol-
yer twice, the shots striking Neal in the
back OF the head. killing him instantly.
Douglass then went away short dis
tance. but returned in five minutes and
standing over Meals body fired again.
This time he was so close that the
powder burned Meals hair and nat.
Douglass then left the camp and has
been tracked as far south as Summit but
there the trail was lost and nothing fur
ther has been heard of him. Among the
witnesses to the killing is H. d. Welch,
who is now under arrest.
The murder was committed before sun.
down, but Welsh did not report it until
opportunity to escape to Arizona if he
wished.
Welsh claims that Douglass shot in self
defense, saying that Neal fired twice at
him before Douglass shot. But other wit
nesses deny this story, saying that Neal
fired his revolver into the gound, and
that seeing this Do ouglass took the ad-
vantage thus offered and shot him.
If Douglass went east he could have
escaped across the Arizona line before the
sheriff's office vas notified OF tho MUIR
der. However,it may be he is still hiding
III the m ountains.
Neal was "a years of age and leaves
wife and child. Douglass was 25 years
old and unmarried.
This makes the fifth murder in the vi
clnlty of Cajon pass within the last few
and the district is fast gaining
the title of the bloody ground.

Los Angeles, Cal, June 25, 1859
Miss Whelpley is a native of Minneap-

OF her father poor health. Since that
time she has gathered around her a large
circle of warm friends and many of the
high school alumni are mum bered am ong

as compliment to them, as well as oe-
cause she has many admirers among the
high school alumni, that the latter asso-
citation selected her to represent Column
bia. The float will represent the ship of
state, Columbia will be seated upon das
about which will be grouped forty-four
little girls, each representing different
state, and California will be given the
place of honor. Miss Whelpley expressed
her appreciation of the great honor con-
ferred uuon her in tn e frankest terms, and
as she has conside BILE talent al an artist
and also as an elocutonist, there is every
reason to believe she will carry out her
part next week Thursday with credit to
herself and the friends who have chosen
