THE FRENCH EXPOSITION.

An American Commissioner Has Not
Yet Been Named.
Washington, Aug. 25.-The French
government is rapidly perfecting de-
tails for the international exposition to
be held in Paris in 1900, commemorate.
ing the birth of the century, and in
this connection. has asked the state de-
partment for the name of the commits
sioner- general who will represent the
United States, and for such other in
formation available as to the partioipa-
tion of this country. To this. Acting
Secretary Rookhill has replied that the
commissioner-general has not been
named, as the American cong ess took
no steps at its recent session to provide
for American representation at the ex-
position. He expressed the belief,
however, that the approaching session
of congress will bring about an ac-
ceptance of the invitation of the French
republic.
President Cleveland called the atten-
tion of congress to the invitation in
his annual message last December, and
expressed, the most earnest hope that
steps would be taken for an adequate
representation by the United Statos.
But congress acts slowly on these
affairs, and no measure was considered.
the idea being that there was plenty Of
time before 1900. 1t appears, how
ever, that Great Britain, Germany and
the other leading powers have been

ment is allotting space to these ooun-
tries. American exhibitors are begin
ming to make inquiries as 60 where
their goods will go, but no answer can
be given them.
The prospect is that the best space
will be taken before the United States
accepts the invitation and makes appli-
cation for space. This was the case
at the late exposition, when American
exhibitors were at much disadvantage
in point of location
1t is expected in official circles here
that when congress acts, it will provide
for a commissioner general and an as
sistant. This was the case with the
last French exposition, when General
Franklin was commissioner general at
a salary of $4,000 and the assistant
commissioner received $1,000. The
opinion prevails that as the appointee
will serve after the present administra.
tion ends, President Cleveland will not
make the appointment, even though
congress passes the act before March 4
next Aside from the direct emolu.
ments attached to offices, fund is pro-
vided for Office and living expenses.
In the case of General Franklin, the
French government conferred on him
the exceptional honor of the cross of
the Legion of Honor.

WHY H0KE RESIGNED
Had Promised to Support the
Chicago Ticket.
RELATIONS WITH THE PRESIDENT
His Successor VIII Probably Be .
Gold Democrat From the
Middle West.

Washington, Aug. 25.-The news
that Secretary Hoke Smith had re
signed, and that his resignation had
been accepted by the president, has
made considerable stir in political
circles here, although the probability
of Mr.. Smiths retirement had been, In
a measure, anticipated ever since his
paper, the Atlanta Journal, declared
that it would support Brayn and
Sewall. Mr.. Smith still declined to
discuss the subject today, but it is
known that the personal relations be.
tween the president and Smith have in
nowise been disturbed.
Mr.. Smiths resignation, his friends
say, grew out of his differences with
his chief on the question of party
policy, and his desire not to embarrass
the president at such time. Beyond
the question of his party loyalty in
acquiescing in the will of the majority,
Mr.. Smith, during his campaign for
the gold standard in Georgia, with ex-
speaker Crisp, had given personal
pledge that he would, if defeated, sup
port the nominees of the convention
As an honorable man, his friends say
he felt it his duty to redeem that
pledge. He informed the president Of
his position and intentions. and to
avoid embarrassment, he placed his
resignation at his disposal. 1t is said
Mr.. Cleveland demonstrated. The cor.
respondence on the subject, if pub
lished, would no doubt be interesting,
but it is doubtful whether it will ever
be given out.
1t can be stated, however, with great
positiveness, that the step which Seo-
retary Smith felt himself compelled to
take has not in any way affected the
warm regard the president and Mr..
Smith entertain for each other.
There has been a good deal Of gossip
about Mr.. Smiths successor today. It
seems altogether unlikely that John M.
Reynolds, the assistant secretary, will
be promoted. It is regarded as much
more probable that a new man will be
selected, probably from the Middle
West, Indiana, Illinois or Missouri
The names Of Ex-Governor Francis, of
Missouri; Bynum, of Indiana, and
Cable, of Illinois, are those around
whom gossip most psrsistently olings

GERMANY NEEDS WATCHING.
Britain Cannot Afford to Close H.s
Eyes.

LONDON, Jan. 15.-A Berlin dis
patch to the Post says: "The smoke
OF the first encounter has been dissi-
pated, but Great Britain cannot afford
to close its eyes to any symptoms of
fresh German movements. The watch
on Delagoa bay must stand as fast
as the German watch on the Rhine
The attempts of the North German
Gazette and other papers to veer to
the Venezuela side may gain for Ger
many Venezuela's alliance in African
questions. 1t will secure her nothing
further"
The Belgian government, in addition
to the United States government, has
asked Great Britain to watch the in
terests of its subjects in the Trans
vaal. In consequence OF these repre-
sentations, Colonial Secretary Cham
berlain has telegraphed to the gov
ernor of Cape Colony, expressing ap-
prehension that the numerous arrests
made will disorganize the Rand in
dustries, inquiring what the prisoners
are accused Of whether bail will be
allowed, and what are the penalties
for the misdeeds of which they are
accused. Gov Robinson has tele-
graphed to the colonial office that he
has completed arrangements for the
transfer of the prisoners now held by
the Transvaal government at the Natal
border. The Chronicle believes that
the newly appointed governor of Brit
lsh Guiana, on arriving at George
town, will have authority to deal with
the Venezuelan government if the lat
