To prevent the deterioration which
takes place in coal when stacked in an
ordinary manner it has been proposed in
the case Of a large quantity having to be
stacked for a considerable period to try
the effect Of submerging it in suffi-
Gent depth Of water to give the neces-
sary pressure for combining the gas within
the pores. And if is further suggested
that to prevent los of gas in transit coal
might be conveyed, while remaining
submerged, by the numerous canals and
navigable rivers which are now being
rehabiltated in the various countries Of

Heafe loosened his grasp on the ropes
and went swirling through the air. He
turned several somersaults and struck
the ground with such force as to mash the

NEW YORK, May 26.-The World says:
At the present time the daily receipts of

due to the failure of the Florida crop, is
California's first chance to get foothold
in the New York market. The fruit is
large and delicious. and although in a
normal year the traffic charges are against
Californians. the Florida planters being
enabled to undersell their far western
rivals from 80 to 40 cents box, there
will in the future be a standing demand
for the lucious fruit OF the Sierra slopes.
Last week carload of California cher
ries were sold at auction. There were
$4,000 pounds in all. At that sale the
California fruit season of 1895 was for
mally opened. The cherries were Of all
standard California growth-Black Re-

SAN FRANCISCO, May 2S.-E. l.. Fitz-

will go TO Sacramento tomorrow and
present to Governor Budd proposition
TO compel every State Commissioner to
do his work in more economical way.
His proposition is that the heads of every
bureau and State Commission shall hold
convention, and, under the direction of
the Governor, form supervising board.
This board shall discuss all industrial
and statistical matters, and assign to each
the lines on which the work contem-
plated by the law shall be performed.
This will do away with several State Off
GERS laboring in the same field. It will
further save the State lots OF dollars for
printing many commissions when their
work has been duplicated. In Mr.. Fitz-
gerald's address to the Governor, which
will be presented tomorrow, he indi-
rectly criticises the other State Commits
sioners who, he says, have neglected to
perform the duties of their respective
