Strange on the night of June IL. Willis
Is 10 years OF age. He answered per

police OF the murderer Of Strange.
The arrest has caused great excite
ment here. not only on account of his
alleged connection with the Strange
murder, but also because evidence has

WILSON'S MOVEMENTS.
He VIII Most Likely Take Trip to
Europe Very Shortly.

Washington, Aug. s.-Postmaster
General Wilson will not go to Gray Ga
bles to see the President unless the
President should see fit to summon him.
which Is now very unlikely. This state
ment is made in view OF the published
report that he and several others Of the
Cabinet would go to Gray Gables, pre-
sumsbly next week in order to have S
conference.
Mr.. Wilson returned from his home
in Charlestown, w. Va. this morning,
and when eeen promptly disavowed
any idea of going to the Presidents
summer home. He had talk with
Secretary Carlisle just before the lat
ter's departure on MS trip by water to
Buzzsrd's Bay.
1t is probable that Mr.. Wilson will
leave here next Wednesday or = week
later on voyage across the Atlantic,
but he has not definitely decided to do
So In case he goes he will be away
about three weeks and will be accom-
panied by Mrs. Wilson. Mr.. Wilson
went to Chsrlestown TO night.

WONDERFUL, IL TRUE.
An Invention Which Will Reyolutionize
Ocean Travel.


Washington, August s.-Consul Ger
main in report TO the State Depart
ment from Zurich, Switzerland, tells of
new invention made by the French
ship engineer, Bozin. 1t Is called
"Bozin's roller express" and it is
claimed that by this system the move-
menss Of boats will be increased to
about sixty-two miles an hour. This
vessel will not slide, as in the case of
ordinary ships, but rolls on the water
by means OF enormous hollow wheels
or rollers.
1t consists of large platform sup
ported by movable wheels Or rollers
The platform holds the boiler. mschin.
cry, cabins, etc. The propelliug power
OF the machinery Is used partly to pro-
pei the whole by means of screws or
paddle wheels, but principally to pro-
pei the mighty hollow side rollers.
The inventor in using his new system.
II Ia said, is considerably reducing the
resistant friction OF the water. The re-
suits obtained with model boat have
encouraged him so that it is now his
intention to mako further trials with
one OF greater dimensions
This vessel, the Ernest b zin," Is in
courso Of construction. II will bs of
$50 tons capacity and have engines OF
$50 horse power. The length will be
forty meters and width twelve meters.
The three pairs of side rollers will be
ten meters in diameter.
Mr.. Bczin, 1t Is stated, intends his boat
to make the fret trial trip within few
weeks by way OF the Seine ACROSS the
English channel aud up tho Thames to
London. l, seems, Mr. Ger sin says,
that problem has been solved and if
the vessel can be used on the high seas
this system may produce the fastest
boat in existence.

Warrington, Aug. Although no
official steps have been taken toward
the reception OF the Chinese statesman,
LII Hung Chang, who is expected to ar.
rive in the United States during the
latter part OF the present month, the
matter has already received the asten-
tion of the State Department. officials,
snd In view of the short time that Ia
available to make the necessary prep
arations i. is probable that they must
begin at once 20 arrange the details OF
the reception.
The prospective visit OF the Chinese
premier WAS not known early enough to
enable the President to apply TO Con-
gress for an appropriation of funds 10
defray the expense OF entertaining him
in suitable fashion, or az least in such
manner as will not be in objec sionably
striking contrast with the protuse dis
play OF hospitality made by the
European governments. Lii Hung Chang
comes not as an individual, but as an
ambassador extraordinary, and our
national authorities must do the best
they can with the means at hand.
This means recourse to the extraor-
binary fund OF the State Department..
and while this is not flourishing con-
dition, never having exceeded $40, 1000 In
these later years, doubtless the officials
would feel authorized to go beyond the
limit in the peculiar conditions that
exist and rely upon Congress at the next
session to defray any bills incurred In
excess OF the appropriation.
As Lii comes bearing q personal letter
from the emperor OF China to President
Cleveland. 1t Is not cow clearly to be
seen how the latter can avoid the ne
cessity for q "trip to Washington to meet
the ambassador in person, though this
would interfere sadly with his summer
plans and involve the premature OPEN
ing OF the White House. which is now
closed In oil portions save the offices.
1t is just possible that Secretary Oh
neY may serve as the representative of
the President on this occasion and some
color Is lent to this belief by the fact
that the Secretary OF State is known to
have arranged to come to Washington
about the date now set for the arrival
OF Ii Hung Chang.
II the presidents in such cases are

navy, or perhaps representive OF each,

SMITH MAY RETIRE.
Rumorea That He Will Soon Resign
From the Cabinet,

Washington, Aug. s.-The Evening
Star TO- day says the retirement OF Sec.
Rotary Smith from the cabinet may be
expected and 1t assigns as the reason
the fact that the Secretary and Presi-
dent are not in accord on the present
political situation, Mr.. Smith believing
that. Notwithstanding the free silver
platform adopted at Chicago, to which
he continues to be opposed, Democrats
should support the ticket, while Mr.
Cleveland, the Star states. Is strongly
opposed TO such q course and believes
effective measures should be taken to
accomplish Bryan's defeat. The Star
adds:
The retirement Of Mr.. smith, when.
ever 1t comes. will be Of mis- own motion
and because his sense Of the fitness OF
things would not admit OF his remain.
ing in such close relations TO the sd-
minis.ration withous being in entire
harmony with Mr.. Cleveland. The fact
that their disagreement Is merely one
OF political policy does not relieve the
situation much, though Il does make Is
impossible that there should be per-
sonal rupture between them.
'Is is warrantable TO say that the at
titude OF Mr.. Cleveland sowsrds the
Bryan ticket Is much more positive and
aggressive than has been indicated by
any OF the many guesses that have been
INDUCED in on the sutjec There Is
nothing passive in his attitude. He Is
intent upon the Accomplishment OF
Bryan's defeat, and II is said that he
can be depended upon 70 do anything
that he thinks will best serve to that
end "
