900 sHAD AT A SINGLE HAUL.

Old Saybrook, May 14-The run of shad i'll the Connecticut river this sea son has been rather small until yes terday, when the Kirkland & Bush nell pound caught 900 shad at single haul. This breaks all necords for many years and was exceptional owing to the fact that the outside 40 feet of the "leader' was up over Sunday in accordance with the law, which would signify that most of the fish must have been in the pound before the leader was drawn up Saturday af- ternoon

 San Jose, Gal, May 14.-Thousands of people between Delmonte and San Jose, who have been anticipating q sight of the president for months, were disappointed to-day. The presidents presence in San Jose for an hour this afternoon took the edge eff the disap- pointment here, where the Rose carni- val was being held in his honor and where the floral display surpassed anything before seen in this part of the country.
 The presidents presence here barely saved the day. He ran down from San Francisco in his special ear, ar- irving here just as the cabinet train pulled into the city from the south. But he remained only for the formal exercises. When they were concluded at 3;30 o'clock he was driven back to the station and left immediately for San Francisco. At St James's square, opposite the court house, handsome ly decorated stand had been erected and here the exercises took place. The president responded to the mayors ad- dress of welcome.
 Immediately in the rear of the stand was the big bouquet of which so much has been heard. It was 90 feet in cir conference and stood in it's frame 9 feet high. The stem was a telegraph pole sunk in the ground. 1t was com posed of cut flowers of every variety that blooms. The idea of presenting this immense floral offering to. Mrs Mckinley originated with the ladies of San Jose, and the presentation was made to the president by Mrs F. O. Smith, who expressed tender words of regret for Mrs McKinley's illness and hopes for her quick recovery.
 A big reception has been planned for the president at the Vendome hotel to- night. and the program was carried out. The members of the cabinet and the ladies of the party all attended this function.

A REPORT ON
NICARAGUA BILL

WASHINGTON. Dec. l9.-Represent-
alive Hepburn of Iowa, Chairman of
the House Committee on Commerce, to-
day made the report Of the committee
in favor of the Nicaragua canal bill.
After stating the terms of the bill, the
report says, in part:
The purpose of this bill is to conccn-
trate authority and responsibility 70"
the construction of this great work in
the hands of the President. 1t has been
believed by your committee that Ids
course would be a safe one to lie pur
sued in carrying out the purposes of
the BILL involving the expenditure of SO
large a sum of money, all the work and
all the expenditures to be made at Il
distance so far from the cap.a han
any other method that could be devised.
We have tried to concentrate authority
and responsibility rather than to dis
perse it among many persons
The report refers to the exhaustive
report made by the Isthman Commits
sion, of which Admiral Walker is head
in which every feature of this enter
prise is fully and at length discussed,
and adds:
NO doubt is expressed by the com
mission as to the practicablity of the
enterprise; on the contrary, they join
with a score of predecessors in express g.
ing their belief that the work Can be
carried to successful termination
within the limits of reasonable cost and
reasonable time. All of the great po-
litical parties are committed to the pol
icy of the construction of this canal"
The report then quotes the declare
tons of the various party platforms
and Presidents Mckinley and Roose-
welt, favoring the canal In conclusion
1t says:
In view of the many thousands of
pages written and spoken in advocacy
of the immediate undertaking and com
pletion of this work, in view of the
pledges made by the parties that it
should be undertaken and completed
in view of the recommendations made
by the President of the United States,
and in view of the almost universal de-
mand of the American people that Con-
gress should at once do something eff
fective in the inauguration and speedy
completion of the isthmian canal, your
committee content themselves with this
recommendation that the bill pass.

GERMANY SEEKING TROUBLE.
Proposes to Interfere With American
Canrl Plans

NEW YORK, Dec. ia special to
the Herald from Washington says:
II is learned that Germany expects
TO have something to say about the
Nicaragua canal because of the inter
ests of a German corpora ton in a CON
cession that will be interfered with
and probably destroyed by its con-
struction.
This interest has been obtained
through the purchase by the Hamburg
American Steamship Company of the
Atlas Steamship Company. The former
is German corporation and the latter
is British. The Hamburg American
Company is subsidized by the German
government, and its ships can be call
ed upon for auxiliary cruisers of the
German navy in time of war.

OTHER MATTERS.
The preliminary report to Congress
on the fisheries OF Hawaii is still re-
tanned by the Commissioner Of Fisher
les. 1t has been delivered to him by Or.
r. w. Evermann, by whom ii was pre-
pared, but has not yet been forward II
to the President. Apparently it should
be ready by the next mail to Hawaii.
The Interior Department has received
from Secretary Cooper a brief or. the
question as to whether in exchanging
deeds to land in Hawaii the transfe.
should legally be made to the Territory
or To the Federal government. No ac
ton has been taken further than to re-
fer the whole question to Assistant Al
torney General Vandeventer.

back to Gov. Dole papers in the case
of Mrs Caroline Blicke of Allegheny,

been wrongfully deprived of a share in
the estate of her uncle. the late Simeon
Weber. known in Hawaii as Charles
Brenig. He was a paralytic in TIE lat
pr days of his life and left property IN
Honolulu said to have been worth $15,-
900 and consisting of real estate and ne
gotiable holdings.
According to Mrs. Blickes lettt", a
Honolulu banker got possession OF this
property under the WILL dated in 1877.
which was superseded by a paper writ
ing dated Aug. 20, 1850. The first will
bequeathed the bulk Of the property to
Damon, but in 1880 Brenig came to San
Francisco and wrote to his brother here
in the States that he was going to be-
queath his property to relatives. He re-
turned to Hawaii again before his
death.
Secretary Hitchcock will ask Govern
or Dole to report on the matter, but 1t Is
believed here that IL is a question for
the local courts in Honolulu 10 pass
upon and that the Department has no
powers in the premises.

any opposition worth mentioning in the
House soon after the beginning of the

some weeks may elapse before the final
vote is taken.
There will be little delay in the en-

Gates of such legislation We're some
what troubled, although not seriously,
by the Indifference of Chairman HiIt of
Illinois. In times past he has opposed
such enactments. Since the treaty Of
1894 with China, however, he feels that
there is every warrant for this country
to exclude those people.
The preponderance of sentiment is -
strong in favor of excluding the Cal
nese. said Mr.. William Haywood today,
that l am beginning to lose hope OF do
ing anything for Hawaii in that regard.
1t looks as though nothing in the shape
, of an exception for Hawaii would he
! tolerated. Congress apparently wants
no exceptions made and probably will
insist on 1t.

STUDENTS ARE AT WAR.
College Boys Are Charged With Gen.
uine Riot.

Monmouth, H., March 1.-The violent
ringing of TIE Monmouth college bell
and riot alarm sounded at the sheriff's
Office at O'clock caused officers to
hasten to the college building. A fight
WIS found to be in progress between the
freshmen and sophomore classes. This
morning at an early hour the sopho-
mofes placed their co.ors on the top of
the college belfry and fortified a guard
of some half a dozen behind a large
BOXER plate that was fastened on the
belfry door. This was discovered by the
Freshmen at about the time of the alarm,
and fight was soon in progress. The
sophOmores had taken several cans of
black and yellow paint with them into
the belfry. and the paint was thrown
down upon the members of the other
class after they rad broken down the
door. President Lyons of 1.-THE college
preferred the charge of riot against the
warning factions, and ach one of the de-
PENDANTS entered a plea of guilty in the
county court, the judge of which is the
father of one of the freshmen. 1t is
agreed that each shall pay the costs in
his case, but as to what fine will be i'm
posed it is not yet decided. The faculty
will make recommendation to the state
attorney as to what is deemed an ade-
quate penalty for the damage inflicted.
