MISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS.

House bill No. II, by Mansfield, re-
lating to tax titles obtained by holders
of life estates in property. was re-
jected on recommendation of the
judiciary committee.
On the explanation that the type had
already been set for house bill No. 81,
Shepards bill for a general law on
negotiable instruments, the printing of
the bill was ordered proceeded with.
This is the bill which Representative
w. J. Harris on Saturday was success
full in having recalled from the print
ers, on the plea that its length would
preclude the printing of it until g. date
too late for the measure to receive con-
sideratiOn in the house.
Representative Hansen offered house

adopted, setting Saturday as the time
for the legislature to make a visit of
inspection to the Agricultural college.

Representative O'Neil announced
that he had received dispatch from
his home in Uintah county informing
him of the serious illness of his
daughter. and that he would hasten to
her bedside Before leaving the repre-
sentatives hall. he was accorded the
privilege of explaining the purpose of
bill No. 1877. introduced by him about an
hour before. He stated that the pres
ent law forbidding the sale of liquor
within ten miles from an Indian reser-
walton had proven to be an unjust and
unreasonable measure, and one that
deprived his county of needed revenue.
With this explanation. Mr.. O'Neil ex-
pressed the hope that his bill to repeal
the law would receive favorable con-
sideration if it should come UP for
action before his return from home

the appropriation of two years ago for
this purpose
Representative Johnson proposed an
amendment, requiring each county re-
celving an appropriation from the state
to expend an equal amount for roads
and bridges.
Representatives from the remote and
poorer counties declared that such a
proceeding would be utterly impractic-
able.
Then Representative Farr pointed out
that the bill was incorrectly drawn in
that the specific purpose in several sec
tons was not definitely stated
Fearing that it would be impossible
to pass the bill without revision by the
committee on revenues and appropria-

Dupuy and LackrOy Want to Leave
Cabinet Positions.

Paris, June 2.-The prolongation of the
cabinet crisis is becoming most serious
NM Dupy and Lockroy both called upon
President Loubet yesterday and expressed
ther anxiety to be relieved of the respon-
sibilites of Office as soon as possible.
tt is reported that orders have been sent
to ST. MichaePs, Azore Islands, directing
the commander of the French cruiser
SfaX, which is bringing Capt Dreyfus to
France, to remain there a short time so
as to not arrive in home waters until the
new ministry is installed.
Should NJ. Bourgeois accept the task Of
forming a ministry, il is thought his
chances of success would be fairly good.
His prestige has been much increased by
the Part he has played in the deliberations
OF the peace conference at The Hague,
where he is believed to have won the
gratitude of Emperor Nicholas by his
tact and zeal on behalf of the arbitration.

RULES ron MODERN WARFARE.
Brussels ConfereHce Sub Committee
Is DoingsGood work.

The Hague, June a.-The Brussels con-
ference subcommittee OF the International
Peace Conference convened to-day, Pror.
de Martens, of the Russian delegation,
presiding. The drafting committees re-
port was amended in regard to awarding
greater protection to neutral states, defin-
ing the rights OF eivn populations to or
ganize for resistance and the rights OF
armies as toward armed civilians.
Ten clauses of the report were adopted.
The report of the Subcommittee will now
be presented to the conference, aud it Is
believed that nearly all the Powers will
adopt the new articles as i basis of in
structions for armies when entering the
field.
The Geneva convention held a penary
session to-day, to consider the report or
its subcommittee The plenary confer
ence met to adopt these additional arti-
cles, and appointed a committee to draw
up general act embodying the report of
the Geneva conventions action. This is
the first definite result of the conference.
The American delegates considered that
some additions were necessary to cover
certain omissions in the text. These ad-
ditions will be left for the Powers TO
consider; but whether they are adopted
or not, they do not affect the ten articles
passed to-day.
The Americans also made a formal de-
mand for the exemption of private prop
erty at sea from capture in time of war.
Ihis question was not INCLUDED in the
circular OF Count MuraVief, and may pos
sibly be ruled out of order. If. however,
a discussion should be allowed the ex-

washington. June 2O.-Attorney General

government OF Havana and the province,
published "a statement, showing that from
January to May inclusive the receipts

balance being cash on hand
This causes general astonishment among
the Cubans, and IS unprecedented in the
history of Havana. Never before have the
figures been published openly. The officials,
formerly, merely made seml-oficial state
ments, which were not itemlzed, No two
years of the Spanish regime have yielded
as much as the past five months.
The English La Lucha, in an editorial
based on this fact, says the Cubans and
Americans are watching the results Of
military rule, recognizing the immense In
nuence which will be exerted In the fu-
ture political struggle by the present cam
paign, and adds:
1.-THE greatest praise Is due to the Amer
leans here at this evidence of their intent

Stolen Mail Recovered.

Chicago June 20.-What is regarded by
Postoffice Inspector James Stuart as one
of the largest and boldest mail ro5beries

of mail wagons, followed.
Porter made a fun confession, impllcat-
ing Newman. A large amount of letters,
money orders and packages taken by the
men was found In their lodging house on
South Halstead street. In the pile We're
letters, money orders and checks directed

mitted since that time, while the prison.
