The following from The Churchman

10 continue the grant to the diocese

that his mission was none of their

crisis, and now that they have an op-
portunity of being rid of 1t. they are
very glad of it, and bid him make the
best terms that he can with the Am

THINGS IN THE WAY.
French Treatment of American Fair
Exhibits.

NEW YORK, May "a special to he
Tribune from Washington says The
exhibits of the United States at the Par
is Exposition will be less complete and
interesting as well as less valuable in
respect to the extension of the deman /
for American products in France than
would have been the case if so many OBJ
stacles had not been placed in the way
by the French authorities. This refers
especially to the proposed exhibits of
american I'VE cattle and also of dressed
meats. 1t is learned from good authority
that after every preparation had been
made for a large and important exhibit
of live cattle the application to install it
was either refused outright or the APP
prevail of it was saddled with so many
onerous conditions and restrictions that
the exhibit had to be abandoned This
was a severe disappointment to the
American cattle industry as well as to
the official representatives of the United
States in Paris. who strove earnestly but
in vain to overcome the obstacles thrown
in their way by the French authorities.
and so that feature of the proposed ex-
hibit of the United States had to be
abandoned.
Such may also be the fate of the pro-
posed exhibit of American dressed meat
and meat products. The United States
Government officials also made elaborate
and expensive preparations for an impos-
ing exhibit of American fruits and dairy
and meat products. An elaborate and
essary apparatus and appliances was in
stalled, and it was not foreseen that any
obstacles would be placed in the way OF
complete and noteworthy exhibit, UNI
til the French authorities began to in
terpose objections and suggest and i'm
pose hard conditions, which it may be
found impracticable fully to meet One
of the conditions, for example was that
fresh dressed beef, ETC., should be ex-
hibited only in the form of whole car
cases. containing the heart, liver and
other internal organs of each animal. In.
asmuch as the exhibits were not to be
sold or consumed in France without the
i consent of the authorities, and as nc
such condition had been foreseen and ex-
! pected. 1t at first seemed to be one which
could not possibly be complied with. but
it is understood that efforts are being
made by the United States officials to dc
so, and with some prospect of success

A BERLIN SENSATION.
Prince Ludwig of Bavaria Offends
the KAISER.

BERLIN, May 2s-The Nord Deutsche
Augemeine Zeitung denies that Prince
Ludwig of Bavaria had any reason for
making his anti-Prussian remarks last
week. The paper says that, in any event,
he could not have been prompted be-
cause of not having been given proper
attention by the Berlin court.
meanwhile Prince Ludwig has again
suoken in a similar strain. In an adj
dress yesterday before the Bavarian Ag-
ricultural Society in Noedlingen, he said;
s.People would do well to study the con-
stitution of the empire. Then many
would not make statements or acknoWi-
edge aims wholly irreconcilable with that
constitution, since the South German
states only came into the empire by Vir-
tine of special treaties"
These remarks are interpreted here as
aimed against Emperor William. Singh
iarIv enough, Prince Ludwig's son,
prince Ruprecht, who after him is heir
to the Bavarian throne, spoke yesterday
ar Munich before the Bavarian section
of the German Naval Society, expressing
himself enthusiastically in favor of ma
~, mn Increase as necessary for the safety
and nrogress of the empire.

of the Naval Observatory at Washington.

GAINESVILLE furnished us with the most
perfect day which the eclipse observers
could wish. No clouds interfered, the
air was steady and beautifully clear. All
of the preparations We're ready for the
eclipse at the time of its occurrence and

made with chalk on dark blue paper by
Professor Otis Ashmore of Savannah,
who was member of the Government
expedition. He spent many days In pre-
liminary practice on this. Professor
Hart of the University of Maine, and
Dr See. who combined telescope and
visual drawings, each agrees IN essential
features with the other. The obServa-
lions of the shadow bands were success
full. although this phenomenon was not
as pronounced as has been recorded at
former eclipses. The shadow bands
seemed to be not well pronounced paral-

RETURN OF THE FLAGS.
Proposed Olive Branch Concession
to the Sou,

CHICAGO, May 29.-The Chronicle
says: Whatever may be the views en-
tertained by individual members of the
Grand Army of the Republic posts of
Chicago on the question of making one
of the features of the encampment the
return to the Southern States of the
Confederate battle flags, the local com
mittee will be guided entirely by the ac-
ton taken by Congress. That there is a
great sentiment in favor of the restitu-
ton of the flags was evidenced yester-
day when it was announced that several
prominent members of the CT. A. r. have
plan in hand to secure the authorize
ton of Congress for the return of the
banners which are at present in the Gus
tody of the War Department.
The matter was brought to the atten-
ton of the executive committee having
charge of the arrangements for the en-
campment and at a meeting held last
evening it was decided that it would be
unwise to take any action at this time
either for against the giving back OF
the flags. 1t was argued that the mat
ter did not come within the jurisdiction
of the G. A. r. for the reason that the
flags are the property of the Federal
Government and cannot be disposed OF
without joint resolution of Congress.
1t was the unanimous opinion of the
committee, however. that should Con-
gress authorize by joint resolution the
restoration of the standards, the local
committee of arrangements would do all
in it's power to make the presentation
ceremony one of the touching features OF
the encampment. 1t is planned that if
the consent of Congress can be obtained
the flags will be turned over to the G..
A. r. and President Mckinley then will
hand the torn banners to the representa-
tiveS of the Confederate military organi-
cations, who will be invited to Chicago
for the ceremony.
Ca1 ,D1 Il ITa oh, .,.,~,. -f
the executive committee of the encamp-
ment explained that the G. A. r. as an
organization could not afford to indorse
or oppose the movement at the present
time for the reason that it was a matter
entirely in the hands of Congress.
ITO my personal knowledge said he,
many members of the organization are
not in favor of parting with the Confed-
crate battle flags, and, on the other
hand, many favor such move. Be that
as it may, l think the action of the eX-
ecutive committee will tend to show that
the G.. A. r. is loyal and will abide by
the decision of Congress-.
General John c. Black, Commander
Longenecker and Major Bigelow, of the
executive committee, entertained similar
opinions on the action taken by that
body. but declined to express personal
views on the wisdom of turning the
flags over to the Confederate army or
ganizations Volney w. Foster and
Alexander f. Ravell, who have declar-
ed themselves in favor of such action
providing it is authorized by the nation
al legislators, communicated with the
committee during the afternoon and viii

SMITH REPLIES TO WILSON
He Doesn't Want to Risk His Case on
 the Turn Of Coin.

The Republican not long ago pub lished an open letter from Col. J. F. Wilson to Hon. Mark A. Smith, pre- senting a variety of three ways by which one of them might be eliminated from the race for congress. MT. Smiths letter in reply was received at this office yesterday. Mr. Smith seems to assume that Col. Wilson doesn't hold his nomination very high or he would not want to gamble it off on the turn of a nickel. His reply is in full as follows:
 Flagstaff, Eriz., October 8, 1900.
 Hon. J. F. Wilson, Phoenix, A. T. My Dear Sir: I have been handed your letter proposing terms of settle ment of the unfortunate dispute now disturbing the democratic party. Be- ing it's regular nominee by vote of ninety-two to seventy of the delegates elected to the territorial convention and that convention having adjourned without empowering me to make nom- inatiOns or any agreement whereby it's expressed will might be frustrated or its edict changed, I cannot see my way clear to entertain your proposed terms. II is the party, not ], that mutt act.
 You proposed to submit this ques- Gion to the republican secretary of the territory. Even if l had the power to act in the matter, I would certainly re-

| fuse to submit q question involving democratic success in q heated cleo tion to a republican official, even i though he had told me ] was the reg ular democratic nominee. l do not | know what could possibly have led you to suggest him as d satisfactory or proper person to supervise the action of democratic conventions, or as a proper arbitrator of any disputes which might arise within our ranks.
 Your proposition to settle it by the flip of a coin aStounds me. If nOth- ing more of principle was involved on the side of our party in this case than the mere flip of a nickel, or If I were or ever had been in such a positi0n that with justice to my party or honor to myself 1 could either make such a proposition or entertain such. II would long since and gladly have retired and left the field open without ever once suggesting whau the other should do.
 Your other proposition, that we both quit the field and permit the two committees to select the third person, aside from the objections urged. is not fair, because you know that tbe reg ular democratic committee consists of
 
 mittae has besn increased to forty eight. Either you or I am the reg ular nominee of the regular democratic convention. The regular nominee can not retire without the consent of his party. for if he should do so, he would lsave the party without a regularly c5oser candidate. The regular nomi- nee Of a party is the servant and not the master of it, and has no authority t0 alter it's will. This is not a question of you or l. but one purely of party.
 Permit me to say without offense to you that you can honorably retire or you would never have offered to re- tire. You cannot offend thc demo- cratic party by retiring or you would never invite their indignation by the offer 10 flip a coin. You have d right to speak for yodrself and those be- hind you or you never would have spoken. You have lrhc right to offer compromise CT concessions or settle mcnts of your own right or you would

It required eighty-tWo { make a quorum for the transaction of any sort of business. No legal action could be taken by less than d quorum. Seventy votes could net seat or unscat a delegate fer any county. Your claims 10 the nomination rests on much revolutionary action. and I submit to

you and to our party that a nomination so claimed can never receive the con fidence and eager support that could otherwise be readily had. I regrs. that I have no power to submit propositions. The adjourHment Of the convention af- ter nominating me leaves 10 honorable field open to me except to obey it's die tates, whatever of disaster it may bring to our party.
