FROM DELEGATE TO NUNC|O
Probable Promotion of Mgr.
SatoIIi to the Post at
Lisbon.
In That Way His Chances for the
Cardinalate Will Be In
creased.

WASHINGTON. D. c., May 1s.-Bishop
Montesdoco of Mexico, in the diocese of
San Luis Potosi, who has been visiting
Monsignor Satolli, has departed for Rome
1t is stated that Cardinal Gibbons visit to
Rome will have no significance on any of
the pending ecclesiastical questions, al
though it is expected that he will discuss
with the Pope the entire range cf church
affairs as developed since the Cardinals S
last visit ten years ago.
Monsignor Satolli will remain in Wash
ington through the summer, though he
has made several engagements to attend
church celebrations
The speculation concerning Satolli's
elevation to the Cardinalate has brought
out the fact that it is an invariable rule of
the Vatican not to advance delegate to a
Cardinalate. The Offices may be filled by
Nuncio, and this fact has been basis of
reports that Mgr. Satolli would be made
Nuncio at Lisbon. There has been no inti-
nation, direct or indirect from the Vati-
can, that this would be done, and there is
less reason for the promotion to Lisbon
than to other posts, as the present Nuncio
there has several years to serve. and is
himself likely to be advanced to a Car.
dinalate.

RUSSIA'S OIL INTERESTS,
ConsuI-General Korul Reports
on the Kerosene In
duStry.
" Soon Control the European
Market.

j.: WASHINGTON. D. c., May 1S.-Consul-
General Korul of st. Petersburg, under
date of April 30, has made report to the
State Department upon the kerosene in
dustry of Russia. He says the great
opponent of the American kerosene in
dustry in the foreign market is the Rus
: sian production, and in order to meet COM
petition the Russians try to reduce ex-
penses everywhere. Owing to the increase
in prices in the London market oil in
Russia has also advanced. For the two
previous years the profits have not been
large, but so far in the year 1895 there is a
large trade at good prices.
Mr.. Korm says, however, that the prices
in Russia do not correspond to the in
creased prices in international markets.
According to the report of the Minister of
Finance the Russian oil industry comforts
itself with the hope that in the near future
the American kerosene wells will weaken
in the delivery of the usual supply, and
that Russia will then control the European
oil business.
During the first months of 1895 the
United States had to suspend the export
of kerosene to the Asiatic markets, and ac-
cording to the most trustworthy circula-
tions the American wells will not be able
in the present state of productiveness to
answer all demands of the European mar
kets which they have heretofore been sup
plying, and which will then be supplied
with Russian kerosene. Attempts have
been made to agree upon O division of the
international markets, and during the last
few days such an agreement has been ef-
fected and presented to the Minister OF FL
nance for confirmation.
A note received by the State Department
at Washington states that che announce
-ment will be made by cable that the Rus.
!: sian Minister of Finance has refused his
assent.

CONCLUSIONS IN DOUBT.
;: 1T Is Said the Whole Law Nav
Be Declared Uncon-
-. .StitutiOnal.
RESTS WITH JUSTICE JACKSON.
The Result Of the Rehearing, How
-: ever, Is Extremely Prob
.....: lematicaI.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 1s.-The
annual shadbake of the District Fair Asso-
citation proved SO much more attractive to
some OF the Justices of the Supreme Court
to-day than the econsultation-room that the
usual Saturday conference of the Supreme
Court was postponed until next Monday
morning. In consequence of this post
poneInent the final conclusion on the
income+tax cases has been deferred until
then. !:
:. The second. conference on the question is
made necessary according to the best infor-
nation .obtainable: by the fact that the
position of at least one of the members of
the court, believed to be Justice Shiras,
was not definitely and absolutely an
nounced last Saturday. Justices Harlan,
Brown, White and Jackson had separate
consultation under circumstances which
made it appear quite certain that Justice
e. Jackson had taken position with those
who upheld the constitutionality of the
j.: law, and as there were known to have been
four members of the court who had cast
their votes in favor of sustaining the law,
= the inference was generally drawn that
with the accession of Justice Jackson a
majority would be found on the Affirmative
side when that result should be announced.
The fact that one of the Justices who had
formerly voted for the law asked for fur
ther time to consider the case as presented
at the second hearing has since come to
light, and this, with other circumstances
. of a confrmatory character, has led to a
=. general impression that when the opinion
shall have been announced it will be found
that the majority of the Justices are op-
posed TO it in all its details, and that the
law will be declared unconstitutional in
toto.
It's known that the members of the
court who opposed the law from the be-
ginning are hopeful and fairly confident of
this result, but they will not allow them
selves TO feel absolutely assured until the
final vote shall be taken prior to going
=: into court on Monday.
- The JUSTICES opposed to the law also con.
slider it possible that at this final confer
:: encc, IF it shall appear that they are in the
ma jority, they may secure other accessions.
Such @deathbed confessions" as a men,
.ber Of the court calls it, are said not to be
SO rare. as supposed.
Ii is said that the opinion is now being
prepared on the theory that the opponents
of the law will have five votes Chat is ma
iority9, and in this event the opinion of the
court, it is said, will again be the work
- Of Chief Justice Fuller.
There is a possibility that the opinion
: may not be handed down on Monday next.
The members OF the court are themselves
. OF the opinion that it will be, but they say,
in view OF possibility of changes, it is i'm
: possible for them to say positively.

BRAY NOW HAS CLAIMS,
With Waller He Was HarShIy
Treated by the French
in Madagascar.
Their Lands Taken, Rubber Trees
Cut and Other Acts Of
Injustice.

WASHINGTON. D. c., May 1s.-It is
probable now that in addition to the case
of ex-Consul Waller, Mr.. Eustis, our Min
lister to France, will be called upon to press
on the attention of the French Government
the claims of Paul Bray, the nephew of
Mr.. Waller, who was torcibly deported
from Madagascar. Bray has written from
Paris to Langston, his attorney in Wash
ington, statement of his case, which has
been laid by the latter before the State De-
partment.
Bray was interested with Waller in the
valuable concession of lands obtained from
the Hova Government. This concession
was formally recorded in the Hova Gov
ernment offices, and copy was registered
at the American consulate at Tamatave.
The American Consul had already fur
nished the State Department official records
in the case. The French Minister Resident
in Madagascar insisted that Mr.. Waller
should submit his concession to him for
approval and registration. Mr.. Waller
refused to do this, apprehending that the
French officials would promptly reject his
concession and deny him justice.
He claimed that the French protector
ate, being confined by treaty to jurisdic-
ton over foreign relations only, could not
be held to give the French officials the
right to pass on the validity of his conces-
sion. According to Mr.. Bray's statement,
matters were in this condition when he
and Waller projected trip from Tamatave
to the Conchion, where the French were
making depredations on their valuable
rubber trees. AS soon as the French be-
came aware of this movement they
promptly arrested both men and tried
them on charges of aiding the Hovas and
writing seditious letters to them.

Pdynsaster Smith Viii Probably Lose
His job in the Nary.
WASHINGTON, D. c., May 1s.-The
hndlngs In the court-martial of Paymaster
Henry r. Smith of the navy have been
laid before the President by Secretary Her
bert. The charge against Smith, who is
paymaster on the Concord, now on the
Asiatic station, was drunkenness and was
preferred by Commander Folger OF the
Concord. The fact that the case has been
taken to the President means that the
court recommended dismissal.
Smith entered the navy in 1873. About
nine years ago, while on board the Essex
he left the ship and disappeared in New
York. He could not be found for many
days. when he turned up again and SAID
he had been drugged. About a year ago
he was court-martialed for drunkenness
and sentenced to confinement in the ship
for three months.

WORKING WoR rHn DISCOUNT.
Eastern Jobbers Still Trying to Force
the Gamers to Their Peremptory
Terms.

Some buyers of salmon, evidently
obeying an order from headquarters
ia put on a little judicious pressure,
are not only holding back from pur-
chases they desire to make from can
nerymen, but are also delaying on
shipments as long as possible after
the goods are bought. This, OF course,
is a very poorly hidden attempt to put
the screw on the inner and so CO.
cree them that they may be forced,
in some instances at any rate, TO com
down to the one AMID one-half per cent
discount terms according TO the ulti-
matum of a few wholesale gTocers in
Chicago. AS stated in these columns,
however, 1t is always well Ito find out
In advance whether your opponent Is
loaded or not, and this ~precaution these
few ill-advised jobbers have evidently
not taken. The foresight Of the can
nerymen has brought them to a posi-
tlon Where they can remain indifferent
to any such pressure. The Gamers are
certainly able ITO stand THE conse-
quences If the jobbers can, and there
is little doubt but that the latter will
be compelled TO retire gracefully, and
either abandon this useless warfare,
or resort to less clumsy methods Of
fighting. This scheme to force down
the market on the one hand, and then
hold shipments on the chance of some
better terms turning up in the mean-
time, is built on the idea that the can
ners are hanging onto the first few
carload shipments and that 1t Is a
vitalpoint with them that their initial
output shall be transformed into cash
to a v them from starvation. Need
less TO say, the Schemers have started
their fight from a very shaky position.
1t really seems to the Historian that
these jobbing men could do much more
good for themselves and their GUS
TONERS If they confined their attention
ITO roofing out spurious brands Of salm-
ON, more particularly when they know
them to be spurious. Let them turn
half the energy they are wasting on
their discount fight into this serious
fake label" question and they will
then indeed be using what power they
possess as large minded and honorable
men of business.
