OBITUARY..
Stevenson Archer, Who Betrayed His
Trust as Treasurer of Maryland.

BALTIMORE, Md, Aug. 2.-Stevenson
Archer, former treasurer of Maryland died
tonight at the City Hospital, wherein he
had been a patient for four years. Mr.
Archer was seventy years old. In 1890 the
news of Mr.. Archer's defalcation startled
the State and country. Many believed in
his innocence until he wrote: II have
proved false to the great trust committed
to me-" He was convicted and sentenced to
five years in the penitentiary. His guilt
preyed upon his mind and he has since the
trial been under medical care. Governor
Brown pardoned him in 1884 and the aged
and broken man was taken to the City Hos
pital where he remained until his death
The amount of the defalcation was reported
to the Legislature as $132. 401.25

NO EXTRA SESSION.
Lower House of Congress May Not Be
Convened TIL Regular Date.

Convened TIL Regular Date.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-There will be no
extra session of Congress, though the SEN
ate will have to be called together for
prompt ratification of the treaty of peace if
the present plans of the President prevail.
1t is stated at the White House that unless
there should be some extraordinary develop
ment the House will not meet until it con-
venes in regular session next December
This statement made on the authority of
the President in answer to personal in
quiries, is in contradiction of reports cur
rent among public men that Congress will
soon meet to draft legislation to meet the
demands that will follow the close of the
war, as we'll as give formal assent on the
part of the Senate to the treaty. The mill
tary occupation of the territorial acquisi-
tions of this government will in no wise
necessitate further legislation expressly au-
thorizing the continuance of a large mill
tary force, according to the views OF the
President. Persons who conferred with the
President to-day positively assert that there
is no necessity for special legislation to au-
thorize the keeping together of the great
army of volunteers. The President, it is
understood takes the ground that the vol
unteer act does not require disarmament
until the emergencies that are incident TO
this war are over and does not prevent the
maintenance of large body of troops in
our territorial accessions until order is re-
stored. A well-xnown public man who was
in conference with the President to-day sug-
gested that the necessary military occupa-
Ntion of our conquered territory involves the
maintenance for two years of an army of

A SIGNIFICANT FACT.
Men ON La BOurgOgne Had Life Belts,
While Women Had None.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2.-The steamship
Westernland arrived in this port to-day and
those on board report that when sixty miles
off Sable island and within about one mile
of the spot where La Bourgogne> went down
on July A. the bodies of twenty-six men
and two women were seen floating in the
water. 1t was a significant fact that almost
all of the men whose bodies were floating
with life belts on were sailors. The passen-
gers seemed to have no life belts and there
fore sank. The steamship Hiawatha, which
went out from Halifax to identify the dead
of La Bourgogne, sighted by the West
ernland in the neighborhood of this human
wreckage, and was engaged in the work for
which it was sent out. AS the Westernland
passed, the crew in one of the boats from
the Hiawatha were removing the life belts
from two bodies.

Yankees Are Hard Barrainers.

LONDON, Aug. 2-Speaking of the posi-
bility of government aid to the British West
Indies the secretary of state for the col
cnies, Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain, said in the
House OF Commons that the government
policy was not settled, pending the result
of the reciprocity negotiations between the
United States and West Indies. Continuing
Mr.. Chamberlain said that he found the
United States officials very hard bargainers,
indeed and it was uncertain whether her
MaJestys government would be able to ac-
cept any OF the terms offered Countervail-
ing duties, he added, to protect the West
Indies against the bounty on sugar, were
possible in case an understanding with the
United States was not arrived at. The in
tereSt and honor of this country, Mr..
Chamberlain also said, demand that the
West Indian colonies be not destroyed.
Referring to the same subject, the secretary
tvs government wished to establish direct
communication between Canada, Jamaica
and London, in order to foster the fruit
trade.
