MISSIONS Report.

LONDON, Aug. 26.-The Marquis
OF Lansdowne, secretary of state for
war, made statement today to the
house of lords respecting the changes
ensuing from the retirement of the
Duke of Cambridge from the post
of commander-in=chi of the army.
The marquis said that, like its pred
ecessors, the government intended
to adopt the main principles of the
report of the Huntington commission.
except that it preferred to retain the
post of commander-in-chief rather
than chief-of-the-stan deprived of
executive power, because it was
Of touch with and lose the confidence
of the army. The commander-in-
chief would hold his appointment
under the usual rules and would be
responsible for the commissions,
honors, ETC., and also for the mill
tary formation, distribution and
mobilization. He would be the prin-
cipal officer next to the secretary
of state for war, and would give
general and distinct orders from de-
partmental advice upon all questions
affecting their military policy. The
commander-in-chie with the other
heads Of departments, would act
as a board to discuss matters re-
ferred to it by the secretary of state
for war, and promotions and ap-
pointments above the rank of major
would always be submitted to the
board. The duties of the chief-of-
staff would be performed, the mar
quis continued, either by the COM
nander-in-chief or under his direc-
ton. The consultative element
would be provided partly by the
board and partly by the war office
council, under the presidency of the
secretary of state for war, compris-
ing the under secretary, financial
secretary and heads of departments.
Other officers may be specially sum-
moned to attend the council. The
secretary of state for war would
alone be responsible to parliament.

ACROSS THE STREET.
\ Railroad Switch That May BE
OUDCseI.

The Pennsylvania. Coal and Oil COM
pany will have a petition before the
council next Friday night. asking per-
mission to run d spur or blind
switch across Third avenue, from the
Hastings & Dakota tracks into their
yard at that point.
Yesterday afternoon the place was
visited by Aid. Hewitt, Alexander and
Dickinson, of the council committee
on railroads, accompanied by Aid.
Miner and Currier and by W. H. Bar
Der, the local agent OF the company,
who explained what was wanted. The
company could run a short spur with
out crossing the street, but it would
give them little room, and the switch
ing on the main track would be worse
even than with the spur across the
track. The company surveyed and
made preparations last year, starting
the leveling from the proposed switch
point toward Clinton avenue There
was strong opposition last year among
the residents of the section south OF
the track. who plead that the extra
track would make dangerous passing
for their children to and from the
Clinton school Thus far the commit
tee has heard no complaint this time,
and unless a vigorous protest is made
between now and Friday night, viii
present a report recommending the
prayer of the petitioner, so that the
council can act on the petition i'm
mediately.
The matter is also being pushed by
the Cornplanter Oil company, which
is going to enter the local field. and
has made q contract with the PennsyI-
vania people for the use of their yard
and storage.

MoNGREL RACE IN DELAWARE.
African and Indian Blood Mingled
in Il Thrifty Community.
Milford (Del.) Herald

Milford Oel.) Herald.
There has been much speculation
about the so-called Moors living in
Kent and Sussex counties, Delaware
These people are usually SWarthy,
black-haired and black-eyed. though
sometimes of a fair complexion They
own schools distinct from the general
public school system, and they aSSo-
ciate neither with whites nor with
blacks. One theory has been that they
are Of the Moorish race, and that their
ancestors were Spanish Moors wrecked
on the coast more than century ago.
Another tradition represents them as
descendants of the Nanticcke Indians.
George P. Fisher, lawyer long
practicing in Delaware, writes to pre-
sent what he regards as satisfactory
evidence as to the origin of these peo-
pie. He has been acquainted with
these people all his life. Noke Nor
wood. a giant of the tribe, erect and
biack-haired at seventy-ive, he knew
from childhood. When Mr.. Fisher be-
came attorney general of the state
he was called upon to prosecute Levin
Sockunl. one of the race, for selling
ammunition TO Isaiah Harmon. of the
same race. the indictment having been
found under statute of Delaware
making it miSdemeanor TO sell arms
and ammunition to any negro or mu-
latto Harmon was a man of twenty
years with excellent Caucasian feat
ures dark chestnut hair. rosy cheeks
and hazel eyes. Mr.. Fisher thought
him the fandsomest man in the court
room. Nevertheless, Lydia Clark,
kinswoman of Harmon. testified for
the state that according to a family
tradition. some years before the Rev
dictionary war broke out, when she
was little girl. their ancestress.

These people for several generations
were confined principally to the south
eastern part of Sussex county, but
have since gone into Kent county, and
even poFthward into New Castle colr-
ty. They have ALWAYS refused to as
sociate with the colered people AL
though chiefly engaged in farming.
they have managed to pick up sufFi-
cient mechanical skill to build their
own houses. Mr.. Fisher says that
they are thrifty. Industrious frugal
and law-abiding. He has known of but
two instances where one of the race
was brought into court for a violation
of law. One case was that of Sockum
and the other of a man charged with
attempting murder, but acquitted.

MAY BE DOUBLE MURDER.
Strange Features of the Sioux
City Tragedy.

SIOUX CITY, To-, Aug. 26.-Sunday
mornings double tragedy in a house Of
il-fsfae now seems likely to prove to
BE R-double murder, instead of a muir
der and suicide. Ora Minter, alias Ha-
eel Hammond, who was found with a
bullet wound in her head beside the
dead Cbody of Max Noack, who had
also been shot, died today without re-
gaining consciousness. The death of
the girl destroys the hope of the police
that SHE would be able 10 throw some
Aghtslon the affair. Chief of Police
Young believes third person had a
hand in the tragedy. He believes that
Noack went to the house and was
robbed. The proprietor of the hotel
where Noack was stopping says he had
considerable money, and as no one saw
him spend any it is thought he had
it when he went to Maud Hoyle's
place Those who believe in the double
murder theory think when Noack dis
covered he had been robbed he raised
a row and was shot by the robber, who
then shot the girl to cover up his
tracks The father of Ora Minter,
alias Hammond, the dead girl, has ar
rived in the city from his home at
Central City, Neb. He says that his
daughter up to three months ago had
moved in the best society in that place,
had been a member OF the church and
taught a Sunday school class. He lays

foot photograph OF the Flour City,
one of the largest and best works ever
made and done in the best execution
of W. R. Miller, the Nicollet avenue
photographer. The view was taken
from the tower of the exposition for
the purpose of placing in the fore
ground the milling industries of ST.

OF the world. AS may be supposed, the
work was one most difficult to do,
owing to natural obstacles, but the su-
periority of what has been accom-

have inspected the work, to be one
of the finest which has ever been ac-

The management of the great show
is superb. Everything runs like
clock-work, and in this systematic
arrangement of every detail lies one of
the strongest eln1ents of the show and
its success. The parade was a proof
of this, as is also every other feature
of the show. The management of the
performances in the three rings was
the most perfect, and here again, the
show lays over Barnum. 1t was par
ticularly noticeable that the three diff
ferent performances were so arranged
that the climax in each one arrived at
different times, affording the crowd an
opportunity to see much more than
if ali three had ended at the same time.
When any particular feature was 60
ing on in the ring, the performance in
the other two stopped, and throughout
the systematic cleck-work of every
performance made the show of partic-
ular enjoyment.

Book agents have come into disre-

of Hennepin county. It is claimed
that four years ago an affable, smooth
individual appeared at most OF the
farm houses in the rural districts and
asked the farmers to sign their names
on a sheet OF foolscap paper, which
he brought along for the purpose. He
added that his only purpose was to
secure their names to place in a list
of prominent Hennep-n county citi-
zens. A short time since another
agent for the concern appeared and
began delivering a history of AIinne>
apolis and Hennepin county to the
people who had signed their names,
saying that they were expected to pay

sorry note for them TO sign. The mat
ter has created considerable stir, and
