TWO NAMES ARE
NOW MENTIONED

New York, Jan. PA dispatch to the
Tribune from Washington says: There is
reason to believe that the VACANCY in the
Anglo-American joint high commission,
by the death of Mr.. Dingley, will
soon be filled. 1t is understood that the
president desires if practicable to find a
man who is willing as we'll as qualified to
follow the lines laid down by Mr.. Dingley
and the policies and principles so ably and
steadily advocated and defended by him
as a member of the commission. Among
the names which V been most promi-
nently associated with the forthcoming
is that of Representative
Tawney of Minnesota, in whose behalf a
strong case is said to have been made by
the lumber industry. He is a membe Of
the committee on ways and means and is
probably as well acquainted with the
facts relating to that important industry

AS to Paving and Other Con.
tracts in Havana
BY THE ATTORNEY GENERAL
ne Says That This Contract is Not an
Immediate Necessity--COn-
tractors Lose,

Washington, Jan. 24.-The attorney gen.
eral has rendered a decision to the secre-
tary of war on the claim Of Michael J.
Iady Il Co., as to certain contract rela-
tons between them and the city of Hav-
ant relative to sewering and paving in
said city. The completion of the proposed
contract, the attorney general says, would
involve an expenditure for the benefit of
the city of $14 ,O00, 600 to be secured by an
issue of municipal bonds.
The Importance of the matter involv-
ed says the attorney general, land the
difficulty of understanding the rights and
interests of the people of Havana with
reference thereto, are sufficient and con-
elusive reasons why the restraint con-
tanned in the order of December last
should not be removed by the military au-
thorities of the United States at the pres
ent time. The administration of the
United States in Cuba is of q military ma
ture and merely temporary. No action
binding the island or any of it's munich
palltles to large expenditures and con-
tlnulng IN debt ought to be made except
upon grounds of immediate necessity

pressing. AS to whether the claims of
Dady & Company are we'll founded,
whether they are sufficiently complete to
constitute a contract and whether the au-
thorlties of Havana ought ultimately to
recognize and confirm them are questions
which ought to be left to the decision of
the authorities of Havana-nOt while that
CITY is in @ disturbed and partially dis
organized condition consequent upon a
recent war and a change of national SOW
ereignty, but when it hereafter shal have
resumed its normal functions under such
conditions of order and tranquility as will
permit its authorities to deal intelligently
and justly with the subject"
| The attorney general therefore recon-
mendS that no action be taken in this
matter at the present time further than
the ascertalnment Of such facts as are
obtainable through the military governor
of Cuba or the more immediate authori-
ties of the city of Havana.

DENMARK's FOOD EXPORTS.

Denmark gives forcibl9 evidence OF
increasing yields. She has a popula-
ton of 2,2OO, 900, or 143 inhabitants per
square mile. She is not only able to
feed her steadily increasing population,
but is in a position to export consider
able quantities of food products. in
1885 her export of such products
amounted to 2OO,0OO,00O kroners ($54,-
000, 00O); her imports, to 100000
kroners ($22, 00,000),- IAN excess of
$35, 100000 or SIT per capita. The ex-
ports of food products animal and veg
etable of the United States for the fs-
cal year 1897 amounted to $500, 100000,
or $5.55 per capita. In the phenome-
nal year 1898 they rose to $3.50, 100000,
or $7.85 per capita. The rate of pro-
gress in Denmark is shown by the
following statement: According to Of
fetal figures the production of grain,
about one hundred and fifty years ago,
amounted to about 100000 bushels
annually. In consequence, however,
of the reforms effected at the beginning
of the nineteenth century, the rate OF
production was gradually increased to
100000 while, during the period OF
1S81-1887, it rose to an average of &c.

KILLING OFF GIRAFFES.
Beers Are Charged With Staying
Thousands of Them.

The beers are credited with being
great hunters, and chief of them in
his younger days was President Kru-
ger, whose daring in attacking lion
single handed, with hunting knife,
has many times been told. When the
beers migrated from Cape colony to
the Transvaal they were forced to clear
the way by killing 5000 lions, many Of
which were killed by Kruger. For
years the south African beers have
been hunters, and their skill with the
knife is due to this daily practice in
the fields and woods. But with them
the killing of game has been either
matter of dollars and cents or self-pro-
lection.
Their creditable work of freeing
south Africa of the dreaded lions,
which roamed in such numbers that
life was rendered unsafe anywhere in
the country, is offset by their ruthless
destruction of the giraffe from Cape
colony to the Bottleth river. If they
killed 5000 lions in the Transvaal be-
| fore existence was made safe, they
may have killed $4,000 of the innocent,
graceful giraffes. In the early days OF
south African history the giraffe was
! the most abundant game in the Trans
! vaal, Matabeleland and Orange Free
State, but the creature has been killed
off like our American buffalo, and the
few remaining representatives of a no.
BILE race gradually driven north. For
years past the giraffe has been prof
liable quarry for the boer hunters, and
the animal was valued by them only
| because the hides we're articles of COM
mercial use. They were pot hunted,
shot down in droves, and destroyed in
the greatest number possible in every
direction.
A good giraffe skin is worth from SIC
to $40 in south Africa today, and much
more in Europe. On their hunting
trips 10 and Is years ago it was COM
mon matter for one hunter to kill 40
and so of these graceful animals in one
day. The reason for this is that the
| grant Is LuG uOSC 1uuOCSuC VI dA4lnd1S
and is easily hunted. Tt is absolutely
defenseless, and there is hardly a case
on record where a wounded giraffe
turned upon the hunter It is true gi-
RATES. have great powers of speed, and
they can dodge rapidly from tree to
tree in the woods, but they offer such
fair mark that these tactics hardly
ever save them.
The hide of the animal is it's chief
article of value. No wonder that the
bullets often fail to penetrate this skin,
for it is from three-quarters to an inch
thick and as tough as it is thick. The
skin, when cured and tanned, makes
excellent leather for certain purposes
The beers make riding whips and SAN
dals out of the skins they do not send
to Europe. The bones of the giraffe
have also a commercial value. The leg
bones are solid instead of hollow, and
in Europe they are in great demand for
manufacturing buttons and other bone
articles The tendons of the giraffe
are so strong that they will sustain an
enormous dead weight, which gives tc
them pecuniary value.-F'rom the SCI
