Apropos of General Russell \.

GUS fact that the secretary of war has
never held onlceas long as secretar-
les Of other departments have held it.

states have had tifty-two war secre-
tarirs, while the number of secre.
tarie- at the head Of other depart
meuts has been much less Wash
iugtou had two secretaries of war.
John Adams had two secretaries,
and Madison had five of them in his
two terms Monroe got along with
two, john Quincy Adams was ohlig-
ed tomoke twoappoiutmeuts. Jack
son i'm his two terms had three secre-
tarios urwar Van Buren,, who SEEM
cd to be- able to get along very well
with his cabinet had only one score
tary of war during his term. Tyler
conferred with four different secro-
tarios for the war department.

chauau each had two secretaries Of

special Examiner In Pension ohce
Kills II Young Girl.

Washington, Aug. Ga horrible mur-
der was committed to-day in the north
eastern section of the city. The muir

examiner in the pension Office, a man
about forty-five years of age His VIC
tim was Liza Weissenberger, a girl
about thirteen years of age, who had
been employed in his household until
few months ago when she was taken
home of her parents, who became sus-
picious of SHELLS conduct toward her,
Smell seemed to be infatuated with the
child and paid her a great deal Of at
tention, which, however, she resented.
This morning Smell went to his victims
house and entering at the front door
passed on through the middle room
where the girl was sleeping, to the din

door the mother ordered him out of the.
house Smell started to go, passing again

back her head, Smell drew a razor from
his pocket and swept it across her
throat. Twice he slashed her throat
and once he missed, cutting a great
piece Of flesh from her cheek. The head
was almost severed from the body, and
both the murderer and his victinl were

assistant director of the experiment sta

section of the country. He states that
one of the most interesting lines of in

these stations is tnat with regard to

sin is taking the lead in this especial
work, and discoveries have been made
there which revolutionize the European
theory that the ripening of cheese is
due to bacteria. The American expert
demonstrate beyond doubt that
the principal change in the albumonoids
which takes place in the ripening pro-
cess is dependent upon ferment which
is contained in the milk itself, and not
to the bacteria. 1t is believed that this
discovery will have an important bear
ing upon cheese manufacture IN the
future.

SHIPMENT OF ARMS TO FILIPINOS.
A IL Important Decision Against Owner
OfSteamcr Abbey.

Washington, Aug. 6.-Hon. John
Goodnow, consul general of the United
States at Shanghai, has rendered a de-
cision as referee in the consular court
which will be of far-rea ching import
ance during the continuance of the war
in the Philippines. The case was in re-
laton to the steamer Abbey, charged
with taking arms from Canton to Lu-
zon. 1t has been in contention for some
time The owners Of the vessel gave a
bond that the ship should land the arms
purchased at Singapore, but she did not
do so. The bond was demanded by the
Chinese customs authorities. Mr.. Good
now holds that it must be paid. The
North China Daily News publishes the
decision of Consul General Goodnow in
full and comments editorially upon it's
Importance in the matter of preventing
further shipments of arms to the insur-
gents in the Philippines and says that
it will be far-reaching in its effect on
stopping the sending of arms to the
Filipinos.

JIMINEZ STILL IN HATAN1,
Returns to His Home on Finding He
Was Closely Watched

Havana, Aug. 6.-General Juan Isidro
Jiminez, who with six Cubans and four
natives of San Domingo left Havana
yesterday afternoon, supposedly bound
for San Domingo, returned to his home
In San Lazare street shortly after 5
o'clock last evening, bringing his bag
gage. The supposition is that on finding
he was closely watched he decided to
await better opportunity. Should he
start again he will not be interfered
with unless he endeavors to take an
armed expedition. General Ludlow will
keep a strict watch to see that there
is no violation of international law in
this respect. The military governor
ridicules the idea that Jininez, an ex-
perienced conspirator, would tell a
newspaper representative of his filibus-
tering plans, if he had any, and par
ticularly where his arms are stored and
the point from which his expedition
would start. While it is believed that
General Jiminez intends leaving the
island as soon as possible it is exceed
Ugly improbable that he has a large
store of arms anywhere In Cuba. All
the arms in the island during the revo-
luton here were in use and the greater
part has since been accounted for at SIS
per weapon.

Union.

New York, Aug. 6.-The compositions
and printers of the New York Sun, 120
in number, who went out On a strike
last night, fearing revision of the
rules of their chapel, were still out to-
night. The press and composing rooms
were in darkness, but the editorial room
presented the usual appearance. The

an editorial the Sun said it may be i'm
possible for the paper to be published

lis, president of the international Typo
graphical union, with which Big is
affiliated, offering to place the available
funds of the parent association at the
disposal Of the local organization. John
Fl. Delaney, president of Big 6, said to-
night: There is nothing new to be
said of the strike except that the bat
tie has commenced and we hope that
our side will win. All we can do is to
watch events. / am making no prom
ises, but will do my best"
At the headquarters of Big tonight
the rooms were crowded with strikers
and their sympathizers. The talk was
mainly over the expected arrival Of
non-union printers said to be en- route
from Philadelphia by ocean steamer. 1t
was said that the steamer had passed
Long Branch this afternoon, bound In
Pickets were sent out by the strikers
and instructed to watch all Of the Dos

Portland Cement Company Destroyed
Loss About $25O,O0O,

Glens Falls, N. Y, Aug. 6.-Fire en-
failing a loss of about s25O000 totally
destroyed the works of the Glens Falls
Portland Cement company to-day. The
buildings, which We're of wood, burned
like tinder, and it was only one hour
from the time the first alarm was given
until the entire plant was in ruins The
entire fire departments of Glens Falls,
Sandy Hill and Fort Edward turned
out, but they could not check the
flames. The works We're started about
five years ago An addition had been
completed and the concern was regarded
as in prosperous condition, The stock
holders We're largely from Glens Falls.
The loss of the plant is a serious blow
to this city, as the company employed
several hundred men and for some time
past the management had been unable
to fill orders. The insurance was S194,-
250 distributed among various insur-
ance companies.
