United States commissioner of navigation,

on German shipping, which shows that

ated at a loss from 1886 to 1893, inclusive,
and would be still losing millions OF
marks annually were 1t not for the SUBJ
sidy now paid by the German govern
ment, which has twice been increased in
amount.
The effect of this subsidy has not been
to enrich German steamship line so
much as it has benefited German agricul-
turaltsts, manufacturers and merchants.
who thus secured a much lower freight
rate than they could have secured had the
being that the Germans have very largely
increased the foreign markets for their
productions The same is even more trlle
of French, and equally true of British,
Italian, Spanish, Russian and Japanese
steamship lines. Were it not for the SUBJ
steamship lines there would be serious
cur a1lment In the volume of their exports,
since higher freight rates would be In
evltable, with the chance of the diminish

out OF business. But because of their au-

Congressman F. G. Stevens, of st. Paul
said there were twelve regiments Of vol

whether the troops would be mustered

What was generally called the Hanna
Cox combination controlled a large ma
jority of the S1s delegates, but it did
not air its power beyond the nomina-
tions of Nash and Caldwell.
The conference at which Senator Han
ma, Mr.. Cox and others reached a mu-
tually satisfactory understanding did not
conclude until a. M, an hour before
the convention assembled. It was over
then with Mr.. Daugherty and other can
didates and known that the convention
would conclude it's work without any
such protracted session as had been an
ticipated.
Guilbert and Huffman were nominated
for second terms without opposition.
When some Of the delegates raised the
cry Of "slate,' George B. Cox himself
was the first to break the slate by
changing the SO votes of Hamilton coun-
ty, which he had cast on the first and
second ballot for Judge Hull, for at
torney general, to James M Sheets. Judge
Hull had been generally considered a
sure winner, as he had been slated. In
this case the antitrust, as well as the
anti-slate element. cut quite a figure.

The attempt then was of the field to
combine against the "slate," and there
was opposition to any one being can

Judge Hull was defeated after very

that the convention was in session.
The only other place In which the slate
was broken was in the nomination for

Brandbury, was candidate for third

as well as on the cry of slater

friend and after declaring the time had
arrived when the truth should be told.

proceeded to explain that for months be-
fore 1893 moral proofs had been obtained
of leakages which were only possible
through officers belonging to the minis
try Of war. and 1t was necessary to
catch the guilty party by material evi-
dence. Hence the bordereau.
When asked what the chiefs of the
French government staff would say to
this statement, Esterhazy, Struggling his
shoulders, disdainfully replied:
They will lie, as they know how to
lie, but I have them tighK have
proofs that they knew the whole thing
and share the responsibility with me,
and 1 will produce the proofs
He denounced the chiefs as "set of
scoundrels. who have abandoned me
basely,' and added, but at one time
they used to come to thank Nine Pays
for her assistance
Esterhazy asserted that quite recently
the chiefs sent McLaguerra, a former
deputy, to London, with seductive offers
to him to keep silence. Now they are

PARIS, June 2-Though excitement is
high and sixty brawlers are in detention,
things are fairly quiet. The members
of the Marchand mission are the guests
of the colonial minister, NJ. Guillan, and
his reception in their honor this evening
is really brilliant function The pavil-
ion Defiore, where it is going on, is the
end building of the palace of the Tuil-
cries, on the side next to the river and
at present partly occupied by the col
onial office. 1t was rebuilt for the late
Prince Imperial. The rooms are lofty
and of noble size, but few, picked people,
therefore, only were invited-senators,
deputies, naval and military personages,
authors and artists.
Lieut.. Col. du Patty de CLAIMS arrest
occasioned startling revelations. Gen.
Boisdeffre, however, is safe. He is asso-
ciated with the Franco-Russian treaty.
He was a personal friend of the late
cZar and enjoys the friendship of Nicho-
las and the empress dowager. To hunt
him down would be offensive to the court
of Russia.

There are many American women,
including some from Chicago, who
are to be presented at the English
court this spring. 1t is interesting to
know just what they will have to do
in order to conform to the strict rules.
When the date Of a drawing-room is
announced, the date when application
may be made is also told. The num-
Der who may be presented in the
general circle does not exceed 200,
and therefore there is a grand rush to
get ones name in.
The woman who wants to be pre-
scented must apply at the lord cham
berlain's office, st. James palace, for
the necessary card. or form. which has
to be filled in, telling Of whom she is
the daughter, of whom the wife. name
and address of the lady making the
presentation, etc. These names the
lord chamberlain submits to Queen
Victoria for her approval and il they
past her august scrutiny presentation
cards are forwarded the eager appli-
cantS.
On the day of the drawing-<oom the
applicant takes her cards to Buck
ingham palace and gives one to the
page in waiting, stationed in the cor
ridor, and the other to the lord cham
berlain in the presence chamber, who
announces the names to her majesty
or the princess who is acting for the
queen. There are few old customs
in vogue, such as woman having to
be presented again on her marriage.
no matter if she was presented when
a girl An unmarried woman cannot
make presentations.
If the queen holds the drawing-room
in person the woman presented re-
moves her right-hand glove, places
her hand beneath that of the queen
and kisses her majesty's hand. When
one of the princesses holds the draw
ing-room ladies only courtesy and
omit the hand kissing. The courtesy
is not slow and measured, but should
be quick and graceful. Full instruc-
lions as to ones dress are always
given at the lord chamberlain's office.

HAVANA'S NEW POSTMASTER.

Edward Payne Thompson, who has
just been appointed postmaster at Ha-
vana, has a splendid record in the pos
tai service, and is a thorough master
of its details and it's requirements. In
1866 he was made assistant postmaster
of Indianapolis, and held the position
continuously until 1885. In 1889 he
was restored to his old place, and for
the past eight years he has himself
held the position of postmaster. to
which he was appointed by President
Harrison on the death of Postmaster
Wallace. He organized the carrier SER
vice of Indianapolis, and no one has
been able to improve upon his work.
The first routes exist today precisely
as he planned them. Mr.. Thompson
was born in 1S41, at Salem, Ind, and
was educated in the college that is now
Depauw. He served in the Indiana
volunteers during the war, and was
afterward connected with the army as
a citizen. Mr.. Thompson's father was
one of the founders of the state of In
diana. He served in the war of 1912
and was with William Henry Harrison
