From VendOme.
Mr.. and Mrs. w. w. Brown, of Armenia,

considerably disturbed by the stories told
OF their narrow escape, owing to anxious
inquiries from North Dakota friends.
They did have a narrow escape and left
by ladder but they were not overcome
by smoke and after Mrs. Brown had been
assisted onto ladder by one of the
hremen and carried down few rounds
she made her way to the street without
further assistance. Mr.. Brown required
no assistance at all. Mr.. Brown says
that on discovering that there was fire
he and Mrs. Brown closed their door and
transom in order 10 keep out the smoke
until they could dress. BY the time they
were ready to leave, however, the smoke
was too heavy in the halls, and they got
out on the window sill and called for
assistance. A ladder was run up and
they made their way down. Both are in
their usual good health to-day.

THE DELAY NECESSARY
Owing to tbs Fact That Draft
Would First Have to be
Submitted To
Havana.

Washington, June 24.-It has been
determined that no reciprocity treaty
with Cuba can be submitted at the
present session of congress. 1t was at
first planned that in the event of the
failure of the administration managers
in the senate to secure favorable ac-
tion on the Cuban sugar bill a treaty
would be drafted at once.
This was on the understanding that
Senor Quesada, the Cuban minister
here, had full powers and that treaty
could be drawn in Washington en-
tirely. II Is stated now, however
that this cannot be done, and that
any draft of a treaty must go to Ha-
vana and be returned before 1t can be
submitted to the senate. This, OF
course. cannot be accomplished in the
short space of time intervening before
adjournment If the estimates of the
leaders that congress will adjourn by
July are correct

senate managers to secure the ratifi'

Columbus, o., June 24.-The state ag-

ing from its correspondents throughout
the state to the effect that wheat will
be only half a crop this year. 1t has
been said that owing to frost blasting
tho wheat the heads are short "a to 30
grains, and that black rust is starting.
At the state agricultural department
1t is said that the June crop report
published early in the month, shows
that there will be three-quarter5
crop of wheat 1t Is not believed that
there are any evidences OF black rust.
for II such were the case the CORES
pondents Of the department would have
informed headquarters before this
time. The department will not hear
officially from its. correspondents until
In July, and it is impossible at this
time to predict what that report will
show. However, the department does
not see anything alarming in the pres
ent condition of wheat.

John d. Spreclles, illionaire,
who controls a great share of the in

contemplating connecting the Islands
by wireless telegraph with San Fran
cisco. Experts in his employ are now

The experts who have just installed
the Catalina System assure Mr.. Spreck-
les that it is only question of dyn-
ano- OF sufficient strength to carry the
waves 1000 miles instead OF 100 miles.
as the dynamo at Catalina is expected
to do.
Mr.. Sprecl!esl has. it IS said, refused
to become the backer of a company
which proposed to lay cable to Ha.
waii because Of his faith in wireless
telegraphy. His interests would be
enormously enhanced By quick COM
munication between the islands and
the United States. and it is but logical
that he should take a deep interest
in the new wireless system.
Mr.. Spreckles is the owner of the
Oceanic Steamship company, whose
four vessels, the Australia. Alameda
Ventura and Hades, ply between the
islands and San Francisco. These will
also be fitted up with the wireless ap,
raratus regulated to the instruments
placed at San Francisco if the plar
goes through.
Mr.. Spreckles left a few days ago fol
Honolulu to investigate the proposition
from that end.

Play.

Tucson, Arizona. June 24.-General
Charles Eagan of army beef notoriety
and Abe Goldbaum. who has charge
of w. C. Green's cattle interests in
the state of Sonora. quarreled in a
restaurant in Hermosillo while at
lunch, and sensational "gun play
resulted.
After some hot words General Eag-
an drew six-shooter from his hip
pocket and would have shot Gold
baum If the latter had not been tco
quick for him. Goldbaum grasped
Eagan's arm before he could aim his
revolver and the bullet was discharg-
ed at the ceiling, doing no harm.
Eagan was thrown violently to tho
floor by his antagonist and the revol-
yer was wrenched from his hand. The
proprietor and others in the restau-
rant interfered and the men were sep
arated. No arrests were maze.
Eagan has won a reputation as a
fighter since he has been mining in
Sonora, and Goldhaum, although a
small man. Is fearless. Those who
know both men are surprised that
the affair did not result more serl-
ously.
