DELIRiOUS OVER MARCHAND
Paris Admirers Of the French Explorer Greet
Him,
Great Ovation From the Crowds AIonp
the Route From Station
to His Hotel.

PARIS, June 1.-The civil and military
to the railroad station at Lyons al O clock
this morning to welcome Major Marchand,
the African explorer, on his way to Paris
from Toulon. great concourse began as
sembing around the depot here of the Ly-
ons-Paris railroad at an early hour today.
Members of the League of Patriots arrived
in wagonettes decorated with garlands and
flags.
announced the arrival of the popular idols
train at 900 am. A victoria was sent by
the minister of marine, NJ Lockroy, to
convey the major to the ministry of ma
rine. where a lunch was given In his honor
The carriage was literally covered with
flowers and had "a tricolor flag at each cor
ner, while the coachman's whip was tied
with tricOlor ribbons.
Major Marchand and the representative
of the minister of marine, Lieutenant Dar-
riens, entered the vehicle, which on emerg-
ing from the railroad station was greeted
with storms of cheering. All present with
the exception of the officers and non-com-
mlssloned officers on the sidewalk, uncOv-
cred their heads as the explorer passed.
The military men saluted in military
fashion.
Deilrlous enthusiasm marked every step
OF Marchands progress along the Boule-
YARD Dlderot to the Henri Quartre bridge
On either step of the carriage stood a DO
hceman who kept the explorers frantic
admirers from entering the vehicle

thought the deficiency for the year would
De about 12.000,OOO but there has been an
unexpected increase in the customs re-
celpts. When Secretary Gage made his es-
innate he did not then know of the 500
100000 which was later paid to Spain
The customs receipts for May were SIS
36I ,9o6, against S13, 3,4665i3 for the same
month last year. Internal revenue receipts
for May were S23, 20 I29, against S14, 49, =
2oS for the same month last year This
gives an idea of the increase in internal
revenue receipts by reason of the imposf-
uon of the war taxes. The internal revenue
receipts nave averaged about these figures
LOT three or four months and give no indi-
cation of decreasing. There is not much
chance OF large increase, but It is not ex-
pected that they will go under $40, 600. 900
Tor any month.
In December Secretary Gage estimated
that the internal revenue receipts for the
year would be S270,60O,0O0. The total to
date is S241 ,o35 $50, with another month to
hear from. That month will make the total
Just about the amount estimated for by the
Secretary. The Secretary's estimate of
customs receipts was S195 000, 600. The total
thus far Is S1SS.060904. 1t is likely that
the Secretary's estimate will be exceeded
by at least $40, 600, 600.

Mr. Bryan responded to the toast, '"The

Revised Regulations for Automobiles

Consul General Gowdy sends from Paris
April IS to the State Department a copy
of the revised regulations for automobiles,
from which the following provisions are
taken:
Automobiles must be SO constructed as
not to allow any matter to escape which
might cause explosions or unpleasant
smells. They must be built so as not to
frighten horses. SO that nothing will OBJ
struct the view of the driver, so that they
may be lit up after dark and the handles
regulating the machinery must be so ar
ranged that the driver can work them
without taking his eyes off the route he is
following. Every vehicle must be provided
with two distinct systems of brakes each
capable of shutting off automatically the
force of the motor and bringing it under
instant control. One at least of these sys-
TENS must act directly on the wheels or
aNles in such a manner as to bring them
Immediately to a standstill. All carriages
exceeding 30 pounds in weight must be
able to reverse their machinery and run
backward. Foreign vehicles must be pass
ed by the French authorities before they
are allowed to run in France"

INGENIOUS FILIPINO SCHEME.
How Mauser Cartridges Are Used fr
Large Caliber Rifles

The War Department has received from
Manila curious specimen of Filipino in
senuity in what might be called subcaliber
ordnance work. 1t is a scheme commonly
used by the insurgents In adapting Mauser
ammunition to their large caliber Reming-
ton rifles. The cartridge in question is a
brass Remington As shell with a Mauser
cartridge neatly fitted inside II. The per-
cusSion cap of the Remington shell has
been knocked out and the cap of the Mau-
ser shell adjusted to the hole, so that the
40 shell can be slipped into the chamber of
the Remington and the Mauser cartridge
hTed from its inside. OF course the tiny
Mauser bullet does not take the rifiing and
commences to tumble as soon as it leaves
the gun The range and accuracy of fire
Is materially impaired; but II the bullet
does hit it acts like a runaway moving
machine An ordnance officer remarked on
seeing IT that ii compared favorably for
accuracy and destructiveness with shoot
ing railway spikes from a cannon"
The principle is not new one to Ameri-
can officers, however, Or much the same
scheme has long been used by our own In
dians, who wrap Winchester cartridges
with rawhide and shoot them from their
old 80 caliber Martins and Sharps car
biaes.
