BALLOON SERVICE
Brought Into Use by Our Com
manders In Cuba.

WASHINGTON, July General
Greely has received the following dis
patch from Siboney:
Saw balloon up near Santiago last
night from flagship of Admiral Samp-
son, where l was observing it.
ALLEN"
ONE OF THE FINEST USED IN
WARFARE.
CHICAGO, July 1.-The balloon that
is now in active use and sailing over
the beleaguered city of Santiago, and
in plain view of 25,OOO Spaniards and
1900 Americans, was shipped from
Tampa with General Skaters forces,
together with the submarine cable and
other field telegraph equipment now
being used by the Signal Corps of the
regular army in Cuba. w. j. Lloyd,
Assistant District superintendent Of
the Western Union Telegraph Com
pany, says that it is probably one of
the finest and most improved used in
warfare.
The balloon was shipped from Paris
early in May, and is charged with
oxygen gas from tubular reservoirs
which have been in use by the army
for experimental purposes at Fort Ri
ley. The balloon is first charged
and then allowed to ascend by means
of wire cables from a large reel made
fast to a field wagon. The cable is
used as telegraph and telephone con-
ductOr, and the occupants of the bal
loon transmit to the ground their OBJ
servations.
There is little danger of the balloon
being pierced by rifle shot, on account
of its constantly swaying condition and
the extreme difficulty of hitting any
thing at an elevation of, say 900 feet,
which is the usual limit of the cable
reel. The French claim to have a rifle
that will pierce the balloon, but it is
claimed there are none in use in either
the Spanish or American army.
Had the balloon been aboard Samp-
sons fleet much anxiety would have
been prevented pending the final 0is-
covery of Admiral CerveTa in Santiago
harbor. 1t is Mr.. Lloyd's belief that
the balloon is in charge of Major JOS
eph E. Maxfield formerly Signal Officer
of the Department of the Missouri, with
General Brooke of Chicago. This par
ticular balloon has a lifting capacity
of 300 or 400 pounds, which would en-
able it to carry two signal men OF or
dinary weight, as we'll as the necessary
telegraph and Photographic apparatus.
This is said to be the first time that 4
balloon has ever been put in actual war
service on this side of the Atlantic
Ocean.

STILL BURNING.
The Foothi1l Fire Was Raging
Last Night.

A message from Folsom Prison last
night stated that the forest FIRE which
burned over such a wide section on
Thursday was still burning way to the
southeast of there in the direction cf
Clarksville.
The fire did not quite reach the Cos
umnes River on Thursday as had been
reported, but was checked at Deer
Greek, near Latrobe. 1t is understood
that there was a considerable loss of
livestock in the country swept by the
flames, besides buildings, fences, cord
wood, etc.
1t would seem the fire is still work
ing eastward in FL Dorado County. 1t
did not start as far north as Rocklin,
but few miles from Folsom, in that
direction. Its origin is not yet known.

AIr. Speaker, and fellow gentleinel
OF She Hoq,e Of Representatives;
have listened with marked at;en-
tlon 70 the votds Of eioquenee tha.
have fallen from the lips Of the ger.
| tlenan from Orleans. who has en-
/ gagged the attention Of this House
words Of profound svmpathies on the
death OF our late colleague, the la
nented Hen. Edward Joachim soniat
du Fossat.
When, Mr.. Speaker, the life of d
man has been as exemplary, as the
lie of hun, whose death has caused
this memorial service to be held in this
Hall Of Legislation, it is but meet and
just. that I, who knew him in private
life, should have a few words to say
on tllis memorable occasion.
Those who were personally ac-
quainted with Mr. Soniat, and held
tie confidence of bis friendship, will
unite with lne when ] say, Mr. Speak
er, that there lived no man who pos
sessed nobler traits of character, or
who was more conscientious in the
discharge of every obligations of life,
be it political, or social, than he VINO
now slumbers in the sleep of peace,
and whose soul asceuded to that
eternal beatitude.
When the ruler Of nation passes
into the great beyond, the nation
inarifests It's irreparable loss BY float
ing flags at bali mast throughout the
length and breadth of the land.
Most assuredly, Mr.. Speaker, in
the loss of our colleague, we have
not lost man Of national fame, or
reputation; but Louisiana has lost q
true and noble som useful repre-
sentative Of her people.
His fellow citizens had bulwark
in the i5ouse Of Representative; and
indeed wefe their interests righteous
" cared for.
All measurers effecting the general
welfare Of our great Commonwealth
he gave such serious attention that
his work is well known, and appreci-
ated, throughout the entire State.
His great aim was to make better
the conditions Of our people, by judi
cious and impartial Legislation, and
all measures tending to accomplish

lis effort to edify the politics Of
this Statr was grand, aud wonderful.
and was embodied with q spirit of
patriotism; he wss alway, found sup
porting with all the power Of his
manhood The partf that anne to the
rescue OF fair Louisiana on many an
occasion.
IN 1874, when the call was made
to the ,aanhood of this State, to come
to the trout, end wrest from negro
rule, and domination, the fair elnblein5
OF our beloved State that had been
trailed in the dr,st by NEGRO supren-
aey, and which las ever since floated
proudly and eloiru;Isly over our bat
tlelnenfs, | asl. you fellow gentleman,
where was the gallant Nj. Soniat du
Fossat on tha6 memorable 18th of
September surely he was in the
front ranks Of The Wife League, at
the head of Canal street in the city
Of AeM Olleans-doing his duty
duty to misunderstanding MS coun-
tls's honor, his people. and peoples
honor. He was indeed one of those
Louisiana heroes who assisted to un-
furl the banner Of s'White Supreme
acy'' IN this State, and constantly he
Upheld that government sof the peo-
Ple, py the people, and for the peo-
ple,' that democratic form of gov
ernrnent according ssequal rights to
I'll, and special fayors to none. =
But alas, Mr. Speaker! the pro-
liation Of such useful man is passed
and now, he slulnbers peacefully with
those, by whose side he stood ami6ss
shot and shells. In private life Mr..
Soniat was well beloved, and never
turned from those whom he could as
sist, he was charitable to fanlt; vet
his charity was never made known to
the world, and only a few OF his
friends knew Of his many kind deeds.
Mr.. Soniat's efforts in the interest
of his native city are well known, and
will always stand a living monument
to his memory as a member of the
different exchanges il New Orleans
he worked continuously for the adj
vaacement of the commerce of chat
city.
But now his work Is over, he lives
no more; the Supreme Speaker in the
house above, has caused him to part
with Us. He who are left to mourn
his untimely death, recognize that we
must all die.
It is horrible to think of death, yet
We humbly bow, and say:
Thine will be done.'
Hence Mr.. Speaker, and fellow
Representatives, in future days when
your thoughts will wander back to
lays gone by, picture 10 your minds
5he' soiemnity of this memorable day;
md that we have lost charitable
nan, an houest citizen, and a judi
,ious legislator in the person of Ed
