Promises "a Harmonious Session.
DETROIT, July A.-'Fhe Democratic
state convention which meets here to-
morrow, promises to be a very har-
monious affair.
While there are a number of professed
candidates for governor the prevailing
opinion among the delegates who have
already arrived is that William c. May
bury, mayor of Detroit, will have little
opposition.
Candidates for the minor offices are
plentiful, but there seems to be no de-
termined or organized effort to secure a
place on the ticket for any of them.

lily and ran short of ammunition. At last

Boxers. Engineer Jugovitch, at Charbin,
had found it impossible to send efficient
help, as he required all his available
forces to defend Charbin, which place
contained thousands of unarmed en-

Gen. Grodekoff considers the situation
bad. Attacks are daily threatened, and
rebels and marauders are overrunning
Manchuria. The general says the local
governors have little authority and that
the fanatics dominate the situation.

1.-THE Japanese were the heroes of the

brave, and was praised by all their col

WASHINGTON, July 26.-The report
of the London Globes correspondent at
Taku of a question of naval etiquette
raised by Admiral Kempff in connection
with the number of guns to which he Is
entitled, excited amused comment al the
navy department.
Admiral Kempff, as the junior rear adj
mIral on the station, being ranked by
Admiral Remey, Is entitled to thirteen
guns under our naval regulations. If The
British naval regulations make a dis
tinction between senior and junior rear
admirals ours do not. The dOuble-starred
flag in our navy receives thirteen guns,
whether the flag is blue or red.
1t has been unusual in our navy to
have two rear admirals on a station. IN
the old days there were usually a rear
admiral and commodore, but when Ad-
miraI Dewey arrived in New York har-
Dor in return for the seventeen guns
given. him by Rear Admiral Howison and
Sampson the former flying the blue ana
the latter the red two-starred pennant.
Admiral Dewey returned thirteen guns
to each.

kEAPFF SHY TWO GUNS
AMERICAN ADMIRAL AT TAKU HAS
A REAL Personal GRIEVANCE.

LONDON, July 2.-The Globes naval
correspondent at Taku writes:
Admiral Kempff has raised q storm
in teaoup on the salute question He
Is second in command OF the station, and
thus entitled to eleven guns, as rear ad-
nliral and this was recently given him
by the Endymion at Yokohama. He
claimed thirteen guns, stating that no
! American admiral got eleven guns, their
values being: Full admiral, II; vice ad-
rntral, Is; rear admiral, 13.
The United States having Just started
the grade of admiral, it is probable
Kempf thought out the regulations in
pure ignorance, as there appears to be
no reason why a United States rear adj
miral should be worth more powder than
any other rear admiral
ITO mis- protest Admiral KempR was
informed that the captain Of the EnGym-
Ion will give him as many guns as he
wanted If there was sufficient powder on
the ship, but until they published their
regulations we had to go by ours.
1.-THE Orlando British armored ship,
arriving at Taku, knew nothing Of this
squabble and rubbed It in by saluting
the Chinese rear admiral with thirteen,
then the Russian rear admiral with thir-
teen, and then the United States rear adj
miral with eleven guns. Whether distance
made it difficult for them to distinguish
the number, or a delicate hint was in
tended, the Newark had the good taste to
return thirteen"
