main as 1t Is.

Washington, August 2.-The navy
department. has refused to accede to
Admiral Schley's suggestion that the
language in the fifth specification of
the precept to the court of inquiry
be modified. ..-
The admiral in his letter challenges
that specification, which states as a
fact that he had disobeyed orders
and suggested that it be modified. The
department in it's reply declines to
make the suggested modification on
the ground that according to the of
fetal records Admiral Schley himself
acknowledged that he had disobeyed
orders. The disobedience Of orders
was an established fact, whether un-
willingly or willingly.

The Wallace shows at Dee Moines.


The great Wallace show, which Will
visit Des Moines soon has beer re-
pcatedly and empha tically commend
ed by the city press and the critical
people. Perhaps the most emphatic
commentator came from the Com
mercial Travellers club Of lndianap-
oils
There is no class of men who are
more free to express their honest
opinion than the commercial travel
ers They are posted and unbiased,
thoroughly capable Of passing Judg-
ment as to the merits or defects OF
any amusement. No matter where
the great Wallace shows may be eN-
hibiting. the management never hest
tates to submit to the scrutiny Of the
commercial travellers W~,o may chance
'to be in town on show day. 1.-The
very best ever saw is the way these
gentlemen Invariably speak of the
Wallace shows.
The Commercial Travellers club of
| Indianapolis made the following pub
| lie statements: "a large number Of
the members of this club have seen
the performance given by the Wallace
shows, and the public has the assur-
ance of reputable citizens that the
show is second to none, and the per-
| formances are of the highest class
| known to the profession" Similar
statements could be readily secured
| from any association of commercial
| travellers.
The great Wallace shows are billed
for Des Moines on Monday, August 5,
at which time a program OF choice and
novel features will doubtless be wit
| messed by immense crowds.

AS TO ROYAL MISER9.

victoria's Stores OF Jewels Suggest Tales
+ OF Her Prsdecsssors.
I hear from Copenhagen, of all
places, that the quantity Of jewelry IN
the private treasury of the late queen
beggars Imagination. While slow to
believe In amazing things, the amount
of wealth locked up in her jewels must
have been we'll nigh incalculable. The
golden jubilee gifts of jewelry alone
would be convertible into a great for
tune. The donors must have been
brainy people to make such presents to
an aged sovereign who coul6 not wear
them. 1t is a pity that royal Wills are
not subjected to the same publicity as
the Wills Of private people. The ways
of royalty have been kept too dark,
since the house OF Hanover came to
England. All the queens consort
boarded except the two Carolines. The
first Caroline spent with good judg-
ment and generosity. The second Car
oline was profuse in spending on her
adopted son and her favorite Italian
courier and his children. But Augusta,
princess Of Wales, who did without
servants, boarded. Queen Charlotte
boarded, and received presents from
shady "nabobs." Queen Adelaide gave
away a good deal in charity, but she
also boarded out of her astonishtngly
large civil list allowance. Queen Char
lotte winked at the amours OF the
prince regent with ladies of rank IN
the hope that he would give her jewels
She never chilled Lady Jersey or Lady
Hartford at any Of her receptions.
This policy had the effect Of swelling
her treasury. She gave away great
deal of jewelry to her children. The
residue valued at e140,000, she left to
her unmarried daughters.
