GENERAL HASTINGS CHOSEN.
A New Director of the Union o.
American Republics.


Frederic Emory. acting Director of the
international Union of American Republics.
rendered his resignation yesterday to the
unions executive committee. which met in
the Office of the Secretary of State, who is
ex-ofiicio President of the Union. Mr.
Emory, in his letter. stated that the time
had :---ived for the selection of perma-
nent Director. The executive committee
accepted his resignation, with a unani-
nous expression of regret, and authoriz-
ed the selection OF Gen. Russell Hast
ings, of Massachusetts, as permanent head
Of the union.
The reports printed In certain New York
papers that Mr.. Emory has been crowded
out of his position 10 make room for a
personal friend of the President are en-
phatically denied by Mr.. Emory, who says
that perfect understanding was had at
the outset, when he stated that he could
only accept the duties temporarily, and for
the purpose of getting the work OF the
union organized. The duties of the For
eign Bureau, of which Mr.. Emory is chief
are ample to engage his entire attention.
General Hastings was colonel of the
Twenty third Ohio Regiment during the
Civil War. President Mckinley was a
major in this regiment. General Hastings
came to Washington from Bermuda TO see
President Mckinley inaugurated. The gen.
eral was run down at Fifteenth Street and
Pennsylvania Avenue by a wagon, while
Witnessing the inaugural parade. He was
taken in the public ambulance to the
Emergency Hospital. and by the Presidents
order he was sent in Mr.. McKinley's own
carriage TO Garfield Hospital, where frac-
tured leg was treated.
On his recovery the general was a guest
at the White House. For several years
he has been interested in South Ameri-
can and West Indian affairs, through bust
ness connection. He will take charge Of
the International Union Bureau upon the
retirement of Director Emory. April /.

sets urged General Hastings appointment.

LOBSTERS SCARCE.
Authorities Have to Aid in Keeping
Up Supply.
Wasteiul Fishermen Of Old Have Diminished
the Stock to an Alarming Extent.

Notwithstanding the efforts of the
United States Fish Commission to re-
stock the waters along the New Eng
land coast with Holsters, the annual
supply Of 100000 pounds from Maine
is nearly exhausted. and the govern
ment. having become alarmed has sent
the fish commission steamer Grampus,
Captain Griffin, to Portland to buy fe-
male Holsters and transplant them at
the hatcheries in Gloucester, Mass
The relative scarcity Of this crustacean
has caused an increase in price of the
canned article in every Maine town.
and the prices now are higher than ever
before. Fifteen years ago the annual
catch of Holsters along the New Eng
land coast exceeded 100 900, 600, and
over $1,000 men We're employed in the
industry. OF this business Maine fur
nished more than one-half, but today
over 90 per cent. of the canned Holsters
are brought from the British provinces
An old lobster fisherman who for years
has followed the business said the
other day that when he began the life

because Of their interference with fish
bait and often they were destroyed as
ruthlessly as crabs are today. The
farmers along the coast would drive
down to the waters edge at low tide
and fork them up on their wagons in
great numbers. They We're then
shipped to market and sold at a
ridiculously low price-four cents a
pound at wholesale in New York. The
lobster as dish soon grew in general
appreciation. and then the fishermen
found more profit in gathering them
than trolling for fish. Then the
canning factories began to be erected
on the coast and rapidly extended the
consumption of the Holsters. AS the
Industry increased the canning fac

UNDERWRITERS MUST KNOW
Kansas Board Is Subjected to a Rigid
Examination.

On Monday afternoon DR.. William B.
Swan of Topeka and J. A. HarOum of
AtchisOn, acting for DR.. B. ]. Alexan-
der, of Hiawatha, president of the state
board of health, examined the members
of the committee selected from the
Kansas Funeral Directors association
to act as a board of examiners for the
undertakers of the state.
The members of the board are H. w.
Gates of ROsedale, e. o. DemOss of
Topeka. w. b. Raymond of Kansas
ity, J. B. HinchOrn of Hiawatha and
D. r. Maltby of Mcpherson AS the
board could not examine others without
being first examined the examination
was held in Topeka and the lowest
score made was SO. This examining
board was made necessary from the
fact that the Association of General
Baggage Agents at their last meeting
decided not to accept bodies for trans
mission unless they We're prepared by
an undertaken holding a license to show
that he is competent to prepare bodies.
All the states around Kansas have
laws governing undertakers. At the
last session of the legislature the IN
dertakers endeavored to have laws
passed regulating their business but as
no laws were passed there was no pro-
vision for an examining board. The
state board of health had the power to
see that all undertakes complied with
the proper requirements in handling
diseased bodies and therefore the OK
aiming board was appointed. The fee
for examination is placed at So and the
license must be renewed each year at
a cost of 81.

ANTI-STAMP ORDINANCE.
Another Is Finally In trod uced In City
Council

The much tal1ed-of anti-stamp ordi-
nance was introduced a the meeting of
the city council last night. It provides
that stamp concerns shall pay a license
of $3.50 a year, and that merchants US
ing them shall pay a license of 500 a
year. This last section would in all
probability, stop the use of trading
stamps in Topeka, as no merchant
would pay that much for the privilege
of using them. Many of the merchants
consider them a detriment when they
have to pay only for the stamps them
selves

be enforced" said Mr. Morgan.

BETTINA GIRARD REFORMS
She VIII Become a Nurse In a New
York Hospital

New York. Sept 19.-Bettina Girard,
whose escapades have attracted public
attention at intervals for several years,
has announced her intention of aban-
doning her life of dissipation and tax
ing up the avOcatiOn Of nursing. She
has enlisted the sympathy Of George
Blair, superintendent OF the outdoor
Poor and he has effected a recOncilia-
ton with her mother, Mrs. OrdWay Of
Washington, and viii aid her in secur-
ing a position as nurse in one OF the
city institutions.
Miss Girard was arrested for intOxi-
cation about six weeks ago and COM
mitted to the workhouse for three
months by Magistrate Crane. She was
sick and almost destitute and was at
once sent to the hospital on Blackwelps
Island.
Then she attracted Mr.. Blair's atten-
ton and he was impressed by the ap-
parent sincerity of her desire to re-
form. She assured him that she had no
desire to return to the stage, as she
feared its temptations. but desired TO
devote herself to nursing. She said
that she did not desire any salary, as
she had small income, on which she
could live. Mr.. Blair communicated
with Mrs. Ordway and last Wednesday
Miss Ciirard was discharged from the
WorkhOUse and committed to her
mothers custody by Magistrate Crane.
Mrs Ordway took her to Washington,
and after few weeks rest she will re-
turn and make application for appoint
ment as a nurse
Bettina Girard is the daughter of the
late Gen. Ordway. AS a girl she shOne
in Washington society. She married
Arthur PadeIfOrd, a wealthy English
man. who secured a divorce in a few
years. She then went on the stage, but
her passion for drink became her mas
ter, and she finally was unable to Sc
cure an enga cement of any sort. She
has on several occasions been an in
mate of the alcoholic ward at Bellevue
