FRENCH OFFICIAL CHANGES.

Army Oncers Transferred For the
Welfare Of the Nation.
Paris, June 26.-At the cabinet coun-
Gil yesterday M. Loubet, the president,
signed orders making the following
changes: M. Be.xrand, procurator
general to the appeal court. and M.
FeuilloIey, public prosecutor, are both
removed. M. Bulot, advocate general,
is appointed public prosecutor. NJ.
Lombard, whose dismissal on account
of the Deroulede trial has been much
criticized as unjust, is reappointed adj
vocate general.
General Hartshmidt, General Roget.
Colonel SAKE and Colonel Coubertin
are transferred to other garrisons. Gen.
eral Roget was the representative Of
the general staff before the court OF
cessation. Colonel Coubertin is credit
ed with having advised his men at
Longchamp on Grand Prix Sunday to
fire If they heard the army insulted in
their presence. With the exception of
Coubertin all the transferred officers
have received equally important posi-
tons.
The premier, M. Waldeck-Rousseau,
read draft of his speech in parlia-
ment today, which will be very brief,
merely announcing that the new min
istry has no aim but to follow out the
order Of the day voted In June IL, on
the motion of Joseph Ruau, Democratic
Radical, which was as follows:
1.-THE chamber is determined to sup
port only government resolved to
defend vigorously republican institu-
tions and to secure public order, and
passes to the order of the day."

Democrats Seem Unable to Select
Candidate For Governor.
Louisville, KY, June 26.-There Is
no sign Of an agreement between any
of the Democratic candidates for gov
ernor. There is no change from the
eleventh ballot, taken on Saturday
night, the ballots thus far taken re-
sulting: Stone, 376; Hardin, 1865;
Goebel, BAG. The 1902 delegates in the
convention are divided so nearly
even that there is not a difference of
80 votes in the strength Of the three
candidates but Goebel is the strongest
because of the solidity of his support.
He controls his following absolutely,
and can vote them for himself or
throw them to either of his opponents
ut will. Neither Stone nor Hardin can
do this, and for that reason neither is
in a position to make terms.
A noteworthy feature of the contest
is the Hardin campaign. Coming into
the convention with hundred votes
short of majority Of the delegates,
beaten at every point in the temporary
organization and weakened by adverse
ueClslOHS NY Tue CleutHtlalo SoAiiAiitlVo
involving scores of seats, the Hardin
managers, with consummate clever
ness, jumped into the fight when the
game seemed lost, withdrew the name
of General Hardin and left Goebel
and Stone to fight it out. These two
fell into the trap and flew at each
others throats, with the result that
when the convention adjourned Satur-
day night Goebel and Stone had split
and Hardin, who had been again taken
up, stood second in recorded votes.
Meanwhile the three cornered fight
grows warmer, and the delegates, who
have spent nearly week trying to
nominate a state ticket, may yet have
to look outside the trio now occupying
the ring to find a leader upon whom
they can unite.

Beers NOT so WARLIKE.

Great Britain's Firm Attitude Is Hay
e.. ing the Desired Effect.
London, June 26.-The firm atti-
tude Of Great Britain appears to be
having the desired effect in the Trans
vaal complications. The latest cable
grams from South Africa talk of vari-
Gus semi-official missions for nego-
tiations between Cape Town, Bloem-
fontein and Pretoria, aiming to ar
range a franchise compromise on a
basis of five or six years past resi-
dence.
President Kruger is represented as
agreeable to some such arrangement,
but is finding considerable difficulty
in handling his own conservative ele-
ment. In reported interview he is
alleged to have said regarding the war
rumors that mountains were being
made of molehills, and that he was
firmly convinced that Queen Victoria
would never allow letting loose the
dogs of war" over South Africa.

THE LAUREL CONFEDERATION.


Perhaps Caused by Iucendiaries to
Hide Evidence of Murder.
Philadelphia, June ga special to
The Press from Laurel, Del. says that
it is believed that the fire which on
Saturday almost wiped that town out
of existence, destroying 100 houses and
causing 100000 loss, was caused by in
cendiaries, who wished to cover up a
murder. This belief is based on the
information of a night Waterman, who
said he heard pistol shots coming from
the pool room kept by J. Laramer
in which place the fire started. Other
citizens say they heard shots, and one
says he saw two men hurriedly leave
the pool room shortly before the fire
was discovered. The spot where the
pool room was located is roped off, and
a search is being made for the purpose
Of finding the supposed victims char.

The foolhardiness of the faith
healers caused the death of the
three year old child of George
Sperry, 'of Falls City, Neb,, on
Friday. The child was sick with
fever, and the doctor summoned,
when the medicine he left was
thrown out and he was elected from
the house by the Faith Curlsts,
The con sequence was that the child
died. This is case for the author
tiles of that city to investigate and
punish these Faith Curists if nee
essary. Prayer is all right and
proper in its place, but medicine
should be given with common sense
to guide the hand that gives it.
Faith without the proper remedies
does not amount to much.

Washington. June 26.-The agricul-
tural department has issued bulletin
treating of the probable success of the
efforts of the department to establish
the Smyrna fig industry in California.
1t appears that the fruiting of the
Smyrna fig is dependent upon the in
PRODUCTION from South Europe and the
establishment in California of little
insect which fertilizes the fig. The
bulletin says; Since the insect has
maintained itself for an entire year
there is reason to suppose that it will
continue to breed, and that California
in the near future will be able to place
a fig upon the market which will pos
sess the same superior flavor as that
which has given the imported Smyrna
figs their pre-eminent commercial
rank"

THE LANDING OF DREYFUS.

Greatest Secrecy Regarding the Dis
tinguished Prisoners Movements.
Brest, France, June 26.-The French
first class cruiser Tage put to sea last
evening, the official explanation being
that she has gone to experiment with
carrier pigeons. She is, however, a
much larger cruiser than the Sfax,
which is bringing Captain Dreyfus, and
the dispatch of such big vessel with
carrier pigeons is quite unprecedented.
Usually torpedo boat is sent, and
the opinion, therefore, gains ground
that the Tage has gone to meet the
Sfax and to take Captain Dreyfus on
board. The pigeons can be used to
announce the transfer, and the Tage
might proceed to another port to land
the prisoner
AS against this theory and as an in
dication that the landing of Dreyfus
will be effected here, there is the fact
that large number of gendarmes
from the country around Brest have
arrived.
The treasurer of the famous League
Of the French Fatherland reached Brest
last evening from Paris. Because this
organization has been at the bottom
of the anti-Dreyfus movement, it is
thought he has probably come to Or
ganize demonstration.

Cleveland. June 26.-only one out

Big Consolidated street railway yes
terday, There was objection in some
parts of the city to the retention Of
the n0n-union men who were kept by
the company. A party Of Is men as
sembled near the Brooklyn bridge, Just
south Of the city. and whenever a car
came along with a non-union crew
the passengers were asked to disem-
bark and wait for car manned by q
union crew. In most cases the pas
sengers did as requested. Finally
non-union conductor undertook to
argue with the crowd, and he was
promptly struck over the head with a
club, and he and the motorman driven
away. The mob refused to permit the
car to move until union crew came
along and pushed 1t to the barns.
As rule the old men were glad the
strike was settled, though there was
some grumhling because the non
union men were kept. 1t is predicted
that all the non-union men will be
glad to leave the city within 30 days.

rue Flsu Commission.


| value OF Ita Work Illustrated ON the
l PAciho Cost.
Washington. June ae.-The work Of
the fish commission 10 practically com
pleted this year. According to the
officials of the commission when tAs
reports are sent In July 1 they will
show that II has been the most sue
cessful year 10 the history Of the COM
mission. Fully as many shad have
been planted this year as last, whsu
the high water mark In shad propaga-
ton was reached. The great COM
mercial value OF the work done by
the nsh commission can best be illus
trated in the case Of shad. The
catch, of shad in 1885 was 5000, 900.
The systematic collection of eggs and
distribution of shad fry since that
year have increased the catch annu-
ally, until this year 1t reached 13,000,-
900, an increase Of 100 per cent In "A
years. At the same time the cost
Of shad has been decreased to the
consumer more than 80 per cent. The
value Of the catch this year was UP
wards Of $500, 1000. This result has been
obtained by the commission with a
total expenditure of $4,000.
So successful was the experiment
made several years ago for the intro
ducti0n Of shad and striped bass on
the Pacific coast that the planting of
those two food fishes ON that coast has
been suspended. The shad catch on
the Pacific now ranges between 1,000,-
900 and 1000, 900 annually. The total
cost Of introducing the shad into Pa
cific waters was but 5000. SO plenti-
full have the striped bass become In
the Pacific coast streams since their
introduction that they can be pur-
chased in the markets of the coast
cheaper the year round than In tho
eastern markets. When they were
FIRST introduced they brought. 81
pound.
In Massachusetts, there are two of
the largest mariss fish culture stations
In the world. At these the cod, pol
lock, nat fish (hounder) and lobster are
propagated. Over 800. 900, 900 cod eggs
were collected here and between 1867
100000 and 200. 100000 fry distributed.
Over 100000 fat flsh were planted.
The lobster season has not yet closed.
Over 100,000,o00 eggs have already
been taken, and it is expected that 50,-
100000 more will be taken before the
close of the season.
