SCIENTIFIC EXPLORERS.

New York, May 1.-Columbia Univer-
sity will send band of naturalists to ex-
plore the Puget sound region. The ex-
petition will set out in June. The first
move in getting up the expedition was
made by Professor Dean of the geological
department, who will have charge of the
expedition. He said: 81 believe the ex-
petition will be of immense value. The
oldest and strongest forms of life are to
be found in the waters there and on the
land also. There are fish there abso-
lutely unknown. We shall also have a
botanist along so that nothing in the
country may be missed. and equal care
will be exercised for the libra fauna: We
intend to have an eye on the fisheries
there"
Three biologists will accompany the
party and one botanist, Professor BritOn.
Professor n. Harrington and A. j.
Grant will also be of the party.

Reports from Kennedy and Runge say
the Mexican weevil is playing havoc with

whole fields have been abandoned. The

SENATE PROCEEDINGS.
Washington. April Bottle naval APP
the senate opened today, the pending
question being on the number of new bat
tleships.
Mr.. White DEM of California spoke of
the need of an adequate navy, but urged
that it should not exclude the consider
alton of the land defences.
He presented the views of military and
naval authorities, including Gen. Miles,
Gen. Craighill and Admiral Walker, show
ing the defenseess condition of our har-
bors, particularly on the Pacific coast.
The senator said that the United States
had been on the 'file' of late, but the re-
suit of a contest with any great power
was not open to much doubt in view of
our defenseless coats. Our navy is not
of itself sufficient protection. Our ships
would have to be beached or destroyed in
case of a great naval war in order to
keep them from falling into the hands of
the enemy.
As we stand, said he, it is utterly fool
ish for us to attempt to challenge serious
ly the power of any great nation of the
world. A war between the United States
and either of the European powers would
mean ruin unexampled. The American
people, said he, were travelling around
with a chip on their shoulders" Per-

New Orlans, April ga serious state
of affairs prevails in ST. John parish A
mob of 500 negroes have organized to
steal the ballot boxes and are fully arm
ed.
The whites are in minority there and
many of them have sent their families
to New Orleans for safety.
Appeals have come to the governor for
troops, but as the sheriff is negro the
governor was in doubt as to whether he
should put the soldiers under him. 1t
was finally decided, however, to send the
troops to attempt to quell the troubles.
The Louisiana Field Artillery left on a
special train at o'clock this afternoon.
The Pharr people are claiming the cleo
ton and are trying to steal some of the
negro parishes, like ST. John, in which
they have majority of the blacks and
in which they control affairs.
indications now point to the fact that
Governor Foster will have the city by 5000
majority, and returns from a large num-
Der of parishes in the country Indicate

WHAT INTEREST HAVE THEY p

The president of the Pennsylvania rail-
road, like very many other railroad and
bank magnates, wants a gold standard
adopted by both national conventions.
He talks and thinks like Mr.. Gould, Bel
mont and Depew, who have recently
travelled across the continent and ex-
plotted their views. Mr. Roberts is frank
enough to say soothing of wanting bimet-
allsm by international agreement or in
any other shape. He wishes the republic
can party to commit itself to the princi-
pies which are satisfactory to Wall street
and which are assoclat ted with the name
of President Cleveland.
The American does not see what inter-
est the president of the Pennsylvania
railroad has in maintaining the gold
standard.
1t says: Like all our great corpora
TONS that railroad is heavily indebted
to European lenders. Its debt like that
of the nation, grows steadily heavier un-
der our present monetary system. { Mr..
Roberts will ascertain for himself how
much more work his road has to do in
1896 to pay off $1,000 of that debt than it
would have had to do in 1876 for the same
purpose he will take his first step toward
the correct understanding of the money
problem"
