TO STUDY AMERICAN METHODS.
French school to BE Estabiished in
This Country,

A dispatch from Paris last night says:
The correspondent here of the Associated
Press has had an interview with NJ. Bou-
qUet directOr-in-chief of the department of
technical instruction of the ministry of
commerce, who confirmed the statement,
published by the Matin today, that the min
lister IF commerce, NJ. Nillerand, proposes
u appoint a committee to elaborate a plan
foT the establishment of French school
in the United States devoted 10 the study
of American industrial methods. NJ. BOu-
Guet said:
VI. Millerand himself is the initiator of
the scheme. We realize that America now
leads the van in industrial progress. She
is far ahead of England. Germany and our
selves In organization and methods of work.
Hitherto we have been sending numbers
of engineering students 10 Germany, Eng
land and Belgium, but the minister has
come to the conclusion mat the field which
offers the greatest profit in their study Is
the United States. He has. therefore, re-
solved to concentrate his efforts there. A
few students will still be sent to Euro
pean countries, 10 study special industries,
but for general technical education they
will go To the United States, where they
will be able to study, under competent
guidance. that audacity, inventive genius
and marvellous organization which has gift
ed the industrial world of America above
those of her European rivals.
A central bureau. or college. will be es
tablished at Philadelphia, with d director
and a couple OF subdirectors, who will be
fully acquainted with the working of the
various industries under their guidance.
The students will examine works spe-
ciany chosen for superior methods and the
newest plants.
The step We are taking ought not to ex-
cite suspicion, ii is really homage to
the United States. The students Will not
go TO discover Industrial secrets, but TO
finish their education; and before the
scheme Is put into execution we shall ask
the cooperation of the American govern
ment and the leading American industrial
concerns. The expense will be met partly
by a parliamentary grant and partly by
subscriptions raised among the French
chambers Of commerce, the Industrial as
scCiations and the big industrial concerns
Of this country. Many encouraging prom
ises have already been received. We hope
the scheme may be carried out early next

John T Doyle, fifty years old. who was
employed as driver of wagon for the
Connecticut Pie Company, disappeared

DAMAGES DISALLOWED-
Adverse Report on Claim of DIR. Ii. I
Guss.

Adverse Report on Claim of DIR. H. L.
Guss.
The District Commissioners have taken
adverse action upon the claim of DIR. II. L.
Guss for alleged damages to his house at
1906 Binney street. DR.. Guss alleged that
the entrance to the alley alongside his
house leading into Binney street was re-
Gently raised by the District authorities so
that when a heavy rain came the water in
the alley did not flow off, but was inn
pounded there. 1t was further alleged that
the water seeped through the outside walls
Of the house into the cellar, causing the
interior supporting piers to settle and con-
sequent permanent injury to the house, to-
gether with other minor damage to the
wall paper and frame work
The case was investigated by an inspector
of the engineer department, who said that
water had stood in the alley before the
entrance was raised to the grade of Binney
street. He said the collection of water In
the alley at the time complained Of was
the result of an excessively heavy rainfall
and would not have flown off under original
conditions. He said, also, that the condi-
ton of the interior partitions of the house
was due to structural defect. The exterior
brick walls the inspector Said had not set
tied or shown any signs of damage.
Major John Biddle, the Engineer Com
missioner, recommended to his associates
that DIR. Guss be informed that after a
careful investigation Of the matter the
Commissioners do not consider that the
District is liable for any damages in the

October,

Mr. Robert W. Dutton, chief engineer OF
the District fire department., has forwarded
to the Commissioners a report of the trans
actions of the fire department during the
month of October. Thirty-eight bell alarms
were received during the month, two OF

tailed a loss of S16.451, with an insurance
on the property involved of S207 ,0I5. There
were also fourteen local alarms, one of
which was false. and the damage caused
thereby amounted 10 sI29, covered by an
insurance of s378050. The total fire loss
for the month aggregated s16,970. while the
insurance on the property involved was
sJS3, 125, making the loss not quite per
cent of the insurance. OF the forty-nine
fires which occurred during the month In
two cases fire Travelled from one woodshed
to those adjoining and beyond, and in two
other instances to adjoining buildings, the
remaining forty-tive fires being confined to
the place OF origin.

WASHINGTON. D. c.. March 2o.-An-
other communication was received to-
day from Mr.. Rockhill touching the in
den1nity claims, but there is nothing to
Indicate that an agreement is any nearer
than il was when this subject was first
taken Up by the ministers.
1T is stated that the sum total OF the
indemnities claimed by all nations can
not he calculated at this moment. but
assuming that other Powers are willing
10 accept the scheme of adjustment pro-
posed by the United. States. the sum total
of the claim would be considerably less
than $50. 900 900. IT is not doubted that
under economical administration the
Chinese revenues would be able to meet
this charge against them within ,reas-
enable time. 81
But 1T appears almost hopeless now TO
expect the other Powers TO accept this
basis. j It is believed tho indennities
claimed will be nearly s5ooooo ooe in the
aggregate an arnount. it Is declared, be-
yond the ability OF China to meet.
