An agreement 10 submit the indem-
nifty claims OF the powers against
China to The Hague conference seems
hopeless. and another opportunity to
test the value of the conference in
adjudicating international disputes
will be missed. The total amount of
the indemnity claims is roughly esti-
mated at $500 100000. 1t is reported
that Austria, Italy. Spain. Holland,
Belgium and Portugal present claims
aggregating more than 100000, 900.
OF this group of powers only Austria
and Italy furnished a military force
for the invasion of China, and their
joint contribution was only 1850 men
and 80 guns. The claim of the United
States. S25000,000. is distinguished
by its moderation among the vast
sums asked by the great and small
European powers. In the absence
of precise figures, it is impossible
to say now much of the enormous ag-
gregate is for actual damages sustain
ed by the powers in the defence of the
rights of their subjects and property

AN AMERICAN VI0LINIsT
Probable Visit of Miss Leonora Jack.
 sen to Phoenix.

It is quite likely that the people of Phoenix will have an opportunity of hearing Leonora Jackson, the worlds greatest woman violinist. and one among possibly four of the greatest violintsts of the world, about Febru- ary 6.
 MT. Wakefield, her manager, who, by the way, managed Scalchi year ago or came as near managing her as any man could, arrived in the city yester- day morning. He Is negotfa ting with MT l.. M. Doris for Miss Jackson's $ appearance here supported by strong company of artists. The appearance of the celebrated violinist, however, will depend upon the preliminary express sion by the people of Phoenix of q de- sire to hear her. A canvass of the city will be begun by Messrs. Wakefield and Doris today.
 The following is said of Miss Jack son.
 NIhe German empress, in November, 1896. commanded that a special musical and dramatic entertammsns be given at the Royal opera house in Berlin. with the most eminent talent in Ger many participating, Great preparations were made, and on the evening in

parently due to this work. During the present year, the work coming to an end April 1. there were planted in New England waters 25O,OOO.OO0 codfish.
 This year the fish commission is go- ing to bag many thousands of salmon. artific.ally hatchad from the rivers rf the Pacific coast. Very small tags will bn used, the fishes being 'fingerlings' about three inches long. It is expected that in this way it will be ascertained the age at which the salmon come from the sea to spawn: also their rate of growth and the percentage of the fry that attain ma, urity The work will be carried on in the basins of the Colum- bia and Sacramento.
 Some years ago similar experiment was made at the fish commission sta ton on the Clackamas river, which is a tributary to the Columbia; but in stead of tagging the young fishes the soft dorsal fins were shaved off them with razor before they were released. When they came back to spawn, three years later, they averaged 20 pounds in weight.
 From this experiment. one or two very interesting conclusions were drawn. If all of the artificially matched fry had survived and been captured, it is obvious that 1000 of them would have contributed 10000 pounds of food fish to the market. As a matter of fact only cnr out of ten of them returned, and was taken the result being 2,0O0 pounds of fish for every 1000 young ones liberated.

TAGGED FISHES IN THE SEA.

It seems rather an odd idea to fasten metal tags to marine fishes and then lCi them loose in the ocean with the idra of identifyin gthem as individuals in casa they happen to be caught at a fu- ture .ime: but this is what the United States fish commission is dging just now with cod, 1,500 of which have benn duly tagged and released this year. No two tags are alike, the markings on them being stamped in series of let ters and numbers, record of which is ker,r in a book in such a manner that if a tagged codfish turns up, d mo- ments reference to the memoranda will furnish the history of that particular specimen, with date of liberation, weight. rtc. For example, a cod wear ing a tag with Ghe raised inscription "S 1OO'' has a complete Identification card so that she cannot be mixed up with any other fish entered in the com- missioner's ledger.
 Only brood fsh-thas is spawning fe males-are tagged. They are bought from fishermen. stripped of their eggs at Woods Holl, Mass, and liberated in the waters Cf Vineyard Sound, after having the tags attached to them The rag is small piece of copper, securely astsned by a wire passed through fin near its junction with the body. It does not matter which fin is chosen, though a back or tail fin is bcst. The tag is very light and its attachment in the manner described does no harm whatever to the animal. During the past few months the fish commission has distributed a circular all along the coast of New England requesting that whenever a cod with a tag comes into the hands of a fisherman or other per- son he shall remove the piece of metal and send it to the commission station at Woods Holl. together wJh a brief stat ament as to the date on which the fish was caught, where it was captured, it's weight before dressed. it's length and the condition of it's roe.
 The object of the tagging is to as- certain the rate at which a cod grows, the frequency of it's spawning, and the extent of its travels in the ocean. Knowledge of this kind has an obvious bearing upon fishcuNural problems, and there is every reason to believe that the future of the cod fishery of the New England coast must depand main- ly upon artificial matching. The, hatch ing of cod eggs and the planting of the fry in those waters has bern carried on for several years, and already the fish cry shows notable improvernen mt, ap-

question q vast and brilliant audience assembled. The royal family and court were present, together with prom!nen, government officials, diplo- mats, men of science and letters and the most notable parsonages of the capital They noted on the pro- gramme, placed between two of Ger many's most renowned singers, an un- known name, announced for a violin solo. Who is this?' they qurried By what right hera?'
 Great was the surprise of all when the unknown proved to be young girl in her teens, who came forward clad in white; modest. timorous, yet of rare sweetness and charm of manner. The hush of expectancy settled over the great opera house. The little maiden in white grasped her violin, and soon the strains of beautiful music poured forth, touching the hearts of the immense throng with the magic power of genius. The solo ended, there followed such q scene of enthusiasm. such storm of applause as all preS- ent will long remember. The young vf..irist with one step became famous. Americans present that evening will never forget the triumph, for the nttle maiden in white was an American whose subsequent triumphs in many lands have made her renowned. Her name is Leonora Jackson.
 .'Sncr her appearance before the German count several of the crowned heads of Europe have paid tribute to Miss Jackson's genius. Queen Victoria personally presented her with tha Victorian Star at the time of her preservation to her majesty at Windsor castle. Miss Jackson is this season touring her native land"

FERROUS WORK.

The journeyman stenple-jack in the employ of contractor generally re- ceives a wage of $5 a day, work or play the year round. Employers of steeple-jack generally insist upon training their own men, preferring to have their apprentices begin when ht- tie more than boys. Lads who are tak- en into the service in this manner are first put upon buildings of moderate height, and great care is taken not to force their progress too rapidly.
 One of the main things persistently impressed upon his mind is the neces- sity of never making an unconscious movement. He is taught to be wide awake to the nature and consequences of every step he takes, of each gesture of his arm or turning of his body Scores of fatal accidents have, accord ing to men in this calling, resulted from 9 failure to observe. to the letter this vital rule. In almost every other line of work physical action is, to a large degree, automatic: but in this perilous pursuit the worker who al- lows himself to become so concentrat- ed in his work that some phase of his action is performed unconsciously Is almost certain to meet with accident.
 Perhaps the most remarkable feat of stceple-jack work recently accomplish ed in this country was that of placing and stripping of its wrappings. at a neigh. of 394 feet. 25-foI5t wind-vane statue, weighing 2,200 pounds, on the top of the great tower of the highest structure in Chicago.

A LAKE VESSEL SUNK.
The Piston Rod of the Engine Broke and

The Crew saved.

Muskegon, Mich, Oct. 19.-The
Barry line steamer State of Michigan
sank yesterday about four miles
northwest of White Lake harbor.
The crew all reached shore safely.
The boat is now lying in 60 feet of
water in the beaten path Of east
coast steamers. The crew escaped in
boats, with the assistance Of the
White Lake life-saving crew. The
Michigan left this port Thursday
night, bound for Manistee. When off
White Lake the piston rod of the en-
CINE broke and, according to the
story Of the captain, broke a hole
through the bottom Of the vessel,
through which the water poured in
such force and volume that the en-
CINE hands were driven out OF the
room. The life-saving crew and tug
went to the boats assistance and an
attempt was made to tow the rapidly
filing boat into port, but the water
came in SO fast that before the boat
had been towed mile inland she
was abandoned to her fate and soon
went down. The State OF Michigan
had been in service on the lakes since
1872. She was valued at $4,000. No
attempt will be made to raise the
vessel,
