The newly appointed chief of the weather bureau, was born in Binghampton, N. 1., in 1856, educated in the public and aea- demic schools of his birth place, not hay- ing the advantages of wealth and uni- versity education. When he became old enough he took up newspaper work, be- ing engaged at one time as newspaper reporter When he entered meteorologl- cal service, then under military control he began at the foot of the ladder. He worked for ten years in the office at Washington, and was afterwards trans ferred to Chicago on account of his health When the control of the weather bureau passed from the military to civic hands MT. Moore was sent to Minneap- oils, and stayed there a short time. On July 20, 1891, he took charge of the Mill waukee office, the grade of which was ad- vanced and the Jurisdiction of the fore cast officer extended until it became the first office in rank outside of the depart ment at Washington
 When the new professorship was es- tablished by act of congress MT Moore took the highest percentage at the com petitive examination which determined who should have the new position. He was stationed for the last year at Chi cago.
 President Cleveland appointed Pro- lessor Moore to be chief of the weather bureau few days ago.

WITH THE RAILROADS.

Washington, July 1S-(Staff Correz spondence.) .)-Mr w. H. Green, general superintendent of the Southern, in an in4 terview with a. staff correspondent of the Age-Herald Said yesterday in talking of the purchase of the Alabama Great Southern by the Southern, that the Queen and Crescent would in his opinion be operated just as it is at present, and not disturbing the present mode of oper- alton. This, he stated, would probably be the outcome of the entire deal, but he said the thing seemed a little indefinite as yet, and the finale could not be deter mined except by announcement from higher authorities. MT. Green is in a position to know just about what is going on and his views upon the matter correspond with those of MT. Felton.
 Superintendent Green also said that sixteen vestibuled coaches had been or dered for the Southern for the south western limited, and that they would be ready by August These vestibuled coaches will not only be run between At lanta and Washington, but Birmingham will get the benefit of them, it being the programme to put them on between Bir- mingham and Atlanta.
 But this is not all Four new vesti- buled dining cars are being built and will be put in operation on the southwestern limited on August l.

Ottawa, Ont, July 1S.-The debate in the house of commons on McCarthy's amendment regarding the Manitoba school question ended at o'clock this morning. MT.

The question was then put and aOnly Mccarthy and Colonel O'Brien rose to the call for division. The speaker de- clared the amendment lost, and the sub ject was disposed of in this abrupt man.

THE PENSION LIST.
Over Thousand More Names Added THAI
Haxe been Dropped.

Over o Thousand More Names Added Than
Have Been Dropped.
WASHINGTON, Sept 26.-A year ago
Commissioner of Pensions Lochrcn said
that the limit had probably been
reached in the number OF pensions, or
rather in the amonnt of yearly uppro-
priation for pensions, but that
for two or three years the
payments would remain about the
same. II was his opinion that there
would be a slight reduction in the
number OF pensioners on account
of deaths, but that the allowance OF
new pensions with back pay and ar
rears would probably keep the amount
about even. While the amount Of
money paid for pensions will not be
materially different from that Of past
years, it appears that there has been
added to the pension rolls during the
year about 1000 names In excess OF
those that have dropped out, Us there
has been IN increase, instead OF n
decrease. There have been q great
many outstanding pension claims adj
justed during the year, and that ac-
counts for the large increase. The
year has not been very fatal to pen
sioners, the death rate being less than
would be anticipated at the time Of
life ut which the veterans Of the late
war have arrived.

Rev. John Gibson. ~
SAN Francisco, Sept. ad-The de-
partment of the superior court In
which Theodore Durrant is on trial for
the murder of Blanche Lamont was
scene OF excitement yesterday morn
ing. The announcement by the dis
trict attorney that "the people rcst,"
and the subsequent statement OF the
attorneys for the defense that they
would be ready to proceed drew
to the city hall crowd that could not
secure admittance TO room ten times
the size Of the apartment set apart for
the trial.
Attorney Eugene Duprey began the
opening statement for the defense.
His intimation that the murder was
committed. not by Durrant, but by
Rev. John George Gibson, pastor OF
Emanuel church, made In significant
allusion to the resemblance of the
preachers handwriting with the letter
ing on the paper inclosing blanche La
monts ring, created marked sensa-
ton. He attacked the newspapers for
the articles written and published con-
corning Durrant, and warned the jury
against improper deductions from cir
cumstantial evidence.
After carefully outlining the story
of the crime as the defense will pre-
sent IL, the attorney said: This will
be the simple story Of the defendant.
He will be corroborated by those
who know him we'll and who
will give reasons why those state
ments are correct. We will then
turn our attention to some evil
dence found in the church. We will
show that the marks upon the belfry
door are the marks OF n chisel and that
the chisel was found In the pastors
study in tool box. We will show
you, as long MS they have introduced
n paper here with letters on II as
compared with letters found in
Emanuel church that they are letters
written by Rev. John George Gibson.
II we are to act upon suspicious we
will show you that there are others
who have been cast into suspicion, and
worse than the defendant. II we can
prove what we have outlined now, we
should have the spirit Of Blanche La
mont call upon you to realize the
truth and II her spirit could come be-
fore you It would say: Let the de-
PENDANT stand out, let him be free, for
he harmed me not. Theodore Durrant
is innocent; we stand for his life; we
demand his liberty"
Mrs. Durrant testified that when
Theodore left his home on the morning
of April he kissed his mother good
by and saluted her in the same manner
when he returned at night The
family dined that evening Mt
6:l5, but the witness said Theodore
had little appetite and he did
not look well. At o'clock that
evening he took his mother to q street
car and when she returned at 1850 he
was in bed and asleep.
Police Sergeant Reynolds described
the chisel marks on the belfry door.
He searched for tool with which the
mark might have been made and In
the pastors study found chisel which
fitted the marks exactly.
