indicated that Mrs. Slack would in no way
relax her efforts to secure her little girls

FIRST, AS USUAL.
The Stars Extra Edition Caught the
Town Last Night.


Never was the advantage of a complete,
more effectively in Washington than it was
last evening. when The Star. by invoking
its splendid facilities for getting and han
ding the news, enabled to give its
readers q copy Of the Presidents special
message fully an hour before the only
contemporary that tried to compete with
it in this field. AT half-past o'clock
the great plesses of The Star We're
rafting off extra editions by hundreds,
which were eagerly bought by the enter
prising newshoys, who know full well the
exceptional financial advantage of heins
early in the field with extra Stars" SO
great was the demand. indeed that it could
not be supplied for fully half an hour.
This extra edition gave not only the full
text of the message, bUt also the circum-
stances leading up to its submission and
the state Of things in the Senate at the
time of its reception, which had marked
bearing on the situation. Every line OF
the matter presented was eagerly read liy
people in all sectors of the city, and when
the presses were finally stopped over l.:Ho
copies had been printed and sold, making
a record for this kind of an extra edition
issued at such an hour.
Thus. three times within month The
Star has come to the front with an extra
edition on stirring events. On the occa-
sion of the special message CT last Tues
day it had a clear field and showed con-
clusively that it is in every department a
live newspaper, and that it leads the Dis
trict in it's facilities for getting the news,
for handling it quickly and intalliSently,
and fer spreading it before the people
without delay in attractive form. In this
it has the efficient aid of the Associated
Press. which forms a most valuable ad-
junct to its splendid plant.

SIR JULIAN PiUNCEFOTF,,
He Gave No CummuEicatiOn to tho
Press ON the Venezuelan Question.

He Cave No Communication to the
Press ON the Ncnezue fan Question.
The recent speech of Senator Morgan on
the Bering question has created some
nisapprehenson as to the circumstances
under which Sir Julian Pauncefote's view of
the subject was presented by the American
press. In his speech Mr. Morgan stated
that the British ambassador had communi-
Gated to the press his arguments on the
question, which, in some respects. were an
analysis of the position occupied by the
Senator. 1t is but just to the British rep
resentative that 1t be made known that he
gave no communication to the press on the
subject, and that the entire presentation Of
the British attitude was taken from the
British blue book, issued from the foreign
office at London. From this official publi-
cation literal extracts Were made, covering
SC me of the more pertinent points of Sir
Julian's letters TO Lord Salisbury. These
letters We're written by the ambassador as a
matter of information 70 the foreign Office
and in no sense were intended as a COM
mtinication to the press. but in due time
when the blue book appeared, reference was
trade to the letters. Under these circum-
stances, the remarks of Mr.. Morgan have
created misunderstanding as to the action
of the press in presenting this piece of in
formation.

In the first case heard, i19, Denlson and
Leighton's subdivision of Mt. Pleasant
Judge Cox told the jury that in assessing
benefits those assessments need not neces-
sarlly be confined to the particular
subdivision in quo stion. But today. at
the request of Mr.. ~ S. Worthing-
Judge Cox Instructed the jury that Con-
flied, ard it would be for the jury to find
half thereof on the land. The benefits

ing the benefits the easiest method would
be, he thought, to find the area of each lot
and then charge against each particular lot
parcel its proport.Crate share of the
benefits These instructions the court made
applicable to case 419 also.
The instructions gwen n case 40 were
rereatei with slight alterations, and the

owners noted exceptions to the courts in
structions. and Mr.. Nathaniel Wilson, of

A SECRET TREATY,

1t has been rumored that the United
States has secret treaty with Russia, un-
der the terms of which the cars govern
mcnt pledges its support to the United
States in the event of a war with Great
Britain. Although officials of the State
Department will not discuss the ssubject,
the report finds no credence in circles usu-
ally we'll informed en- our diplomatic af-
fairs inasmuch as such treaty would be
in direct conflict with the long established
policy of the United States against "en-
tanglng alliances with foreign powers
Despite this disbelief in the existence of
a treaty, there is a strong popular feeling
that, in case of war of the kind indi-
Gated, the United States would have the
friendly aid and good offices of the Rus
sian government, it, indeed, We did not the

establishment.

Owing to the long and unexplained delay
of the Turkish government in considering
their application for exequatur as consuls,
they started for their new posts without
exequaturs. They got to Trebizond on the
day of the riot, and. finding it dangerous to
proceed, stayed there until they were re-
called to Constantinople by the State De-
partment. Mr.. Hunter was out Sightseeing
at Treb.Zond when the riot occurred which
cost so many lives. He was threatened by
the excited NIB, and only escaped its fury
by disclosing his identity officer of the
United States. Mr.. Chiffon made a long
report to the State Department OF the Turk
ish massacre at TrebiZond, based on his own
observations, but the department has so far
suppressed its publication. In view of this
fact, Mr.. Chiffon declines to be interviewed
on the subject
1t is expected that his appointment as
chief of the consular bureau will be an
