Phillies VIII Not Trade Cross, HuIen
and Hallmun,

Philadelphia. Oct. 22-Secretary Shetts-
line, of the Philadelphia ball club, said to-
day:
''As TO rUmors officials with the st. Louis
club, involving an exchange of Cross HuIen
AMI nailrnan for Kissinger, Meyers and
Monte Cross. there is no foundation for
them.
Negotiations have not even been opened
by the st. Louis club for such Il tr:de and
although Manager Dowd is reported as hav-
ing stated that he is going to make that
trade, il requires two sides to close a bar
gain, Il nj the officials Of the Philadelphia
club have certainly no intention of making
such Il ridiculous exchange"

A COMMISSIONER GENERAL
For the Paris Exposition Should be Pro
Ninsh fnr nj Once.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-Thc French
government IS rapidly pcrfcct!ng the de-
tails for the international exposition to
be held In Paris in 1900. commemoratlnE
the birth of the century and in this con-
neCtiOn has asked the state department
for the name OF thee commissioner gem
cral who will represent the United
States. and for such other information
available IL TO the participation nC this
country. ITO this Acting Secretary
Rockhill kas replied that the commits
siOncr general has not been named. as
the American Congress took no steps at
Its recent session to provide for an
Aemrtcan representation at this expo
sition. He expresses the belief. how
ever. that the approaching session of
Congress will bring about an acceptance
OF the invitation OF the French republic.
President Cleveland called the attcn-
tlon OF Congress to the invitation In his
annual message last December and cX-
pressed the most earnest hope thar StrDs
would be taken for an adequate repre-
ssntation by the United States. But
Congress acts slowly On these affairs.
and no measure was considered. the idea
being that there was plenty OF of time
before 1900. 1t appears, however, that
bItut pIlthlil' HtlIutIS anu blTet lead
Ing powers have been quick to accept
nnd the French government is nllOting

hibitors are beginning TO make inquiry

answer can be given them. The pros
pect IL that the best space will he taken
before the United States accepts the in
ritation md makes application for
space. This was the case at the last tx-
position, when American exhibitors
were Mt much disadvantage i'll point of
location.
II Is expected in official circles here
that when Congress acts 1t wilIiprovide
for n commissioner general and an as
sl7tnnt. This wa the case at the last
French exposition. when Gen. Franklin
was commissioner general Mt a salary of
$4,000 and the assistant commissioner
received $1,000. The opinion prevails
that rs the app0intcc will serve after
the present administration ends, Prcsl-
dent Cleveland will not make the APP

MUST BE PAID INTO COURT.
Judge Harlan, in Baltimore, yester-
day. filed an opinion directing the re-
ceivers of the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road to pay into court S54S S39904 fOr
the benefit Of the members of the Bal
timore and Ohio Relief Association
Shortly before the road went into the
receivers hands a petition was filed by
a member of the relief department
charging that the assets Of the relief
association, which the railroad held in
trust under an agreement with the as
socation. had never been invested
but had been borrowed by the trustees
and were in danger of loss.
The court holds that the funds were
received by the railroad company un-
der an express trust to remain distinct
and separate from the property OF the
company The court decides that the
funds of the relief association or the
securities which they represent. must
be brought into court
