The steamer La Touraine, which reached this
city yesterday from Havre, brought Arthur valois
a United States Commissioner the Paris Ex-
position. Mr. Valois, who was accompanied by his
wife, comes over on vacation and incidentally to
transact personal business. He said that the Ex-
position IN every way artistic success, and
that a large attendance expected during Sep
tember and October.
When asked to the truth OF the report that
Commissioner-General Peck had acted discour-
teously State representatives at the Exposition
Mr.. Valois replied:
Conmissioner-GeneraI Peck has acted in the
kindest manner with me, and relations are
most cordial. do not know Of his acting other
wise with OF the officials All the United States
deal OF work in bringing forward American ex-
hibits. The United States is taking many OF tho
prizes in fact, more than was at first expected.
In speaking OF the story that Mr.. Peck had Sc

Potter Palmer from being decorated by the French
Government he said
That is impossible for l know how such things

that Mr.. Peck presented the names OF Mrs. Man

there being so many representatives from the

went well until some asked what arrange
ents had been provided for the handling of troops
BY the Prospective association. The point was
raised that by recent order Of the Quartermaster-
General OF the United States Army all troops
go by way of the Southern Pacific from Ogden to
San Francisco. all things being equal.
It explained that the for this order
that the Southern Pacific indebted TO the
United States. and that this the only way the
debt could be cancelled. It suggested that
the working Of this order would be dspleasng to
the Santa Fe in particular, and might draw away
the support Of the northern roads and those reach
ing tidewater through Texas from the association.
The discussion will be resumed tomorrow. Four
committees appointed to arrange the territory

Dr. Alvah H. Doty. Health Officer of the Port
yesterday sent out from Quarantine hurry orders
for fifteen thermometers. AS the steamship City

be at Quarantine thirty forty thermometers. to
take the temperatures of the people who come in
during the summer season on ships from yellow
fever infected ports. A number OF his instruments
had been broken recently, and II was this ac-
count that he FASTENED to get others to take their
places
The Health officer said that the City of Rome
which sighted off Fire Island at $40 p. m
yesterday. would be held at Quarantine for the
night. In the morning she and her passengers
would be inspected and until then he could not
tell he said, whether the vessel would be held any
longer than the usual time.

Continuing. Delegate Rchartz declared that as
the union BARRIERS received better pay than non

warning them to fight shy of non-union barber
