THE WHITE HOUSE STABLE.
Col. SymOnds Recommends the Building
Df u New One at Cost " $50 ,OOO

~ New One at a Cost Of $50 900,
WASHINGTON, july 29,-The annual re-
port of Col. Symons, who succeeded Col
Bingham as Superintendent of Public
Buildings and Grounds, an Office which
includes the supervision of the White House,
urgently recommends the construction Of
a new stable, and says:
"The present stable is low brick struct-
ure, built many years ago and 80 near the
ground as to be damp and unhealthy for
horses. In connection with it ia an old
wooden stable, which is needed to increase
the capacity to the requisite amount. To
build a proper and adequate stable would
cost about 100000, Such stable would
accommodate the animals, carriages and
wagons at present in Use and provide for
the reasonable and natural increase which
can confidently be expected In the future"
Col Symons also recommends an ap-
preparation of $1,000 for the construction
of a flower house

MI. Isakcr of BROOKLYN.

If the first duty of new Congressman
is to inform the public fully Of his quail
ties and virtues or of his own estimate
of the same, it will strike most persons
of candid Judgment that the Hon ROB-
FRr BAKER of Brooklyn is making a
good start
Mr.. BAKER was elected last November
to represent the Sixth district. Up to
Yesterday he was known chiefly as the
author of the most portentous auto
biography ever contributed by fresh
man to the pages of the Congressional
DIRECTORY. Mr. BAKERS little descrip-
ton of himself occupies seventy-tive
long lines, or considerably more than a
whole page, of that compilation. He
has actually assigned to himself more
space than tho combined allotments Of
eight of his colleagues and neighbors
namely. Mr. SCUnDEn of the First, Mr.
LINDSAY of the Second, Mr.. DUNwELL
of the Third, Mr. WILSON of the Fourth,
Mr., BAssErr of the Fifth, Mr.. FITz-
GERALD of the Seventh, Mr.. SULLIVAN Of
the Eighth. and Mr.. SULZER of the Tenth.
All of these Congressman together oc-
cupy less than sixty-eight lines; MIR.
BAKER. as we have said, was unable to
dispose of his subject in less than sew
entv-five lines.
The Hon. TIMOTHY d, SULLIVAN 8
autobiography is a model of conciseness
and modest reserve. Mr.. SULLIVAN in
PRODUCES and disposes OF himself in
exactly three lines plus three words,
Mr.. BAKER. on the other hand informs
the country of his struggles, his reverses
and his triumphs, with an attention to
detail and conscientious accuracy
which is quite without precedent in the
Congressional Directory; and as he pro-
ceeds with the exhibit of all that he has
been and is. or thinks he il, as a public
character, his pen warns to an eloquencc
unusual in writings of that sort We
quote a few specimen passages OF Baker
| in contrast with the extra dryness Of
the Hon. TIMOTHY ID. SULLIvAN's sketch

RUSSIA IN CHINA.

Washington VIII Not Protest if the
 Treaty Hs Observed.
 WASHINGTON, Oct 8.-The offia cials of the state department are fully prepared to believe the news that Rus sta has served notice on Chipss that she will not evacuate Manchuria until her latest demands are granted. Ex- actiy what these demands are no off, ciaI of the state department is pre- pared to say, but the belief is strong that they are practically the same as those reported from Peking and dis ayowed by the Russian foreign office 1t was said on the highest authority that this government had reason to be- lieve that Russia was insisting on the very demands which Count Lamsdorff assured Ambassador Mccormick had never been presented and which Count Cassini, the Russian ambassador, told Secretary Hay were merely presented as bases of negotiations.
 It was stated by the same authority that this government will not feel called upon to enter protest against Russ1a's action so long as our commer- csal treaty, which is to be signed by China today, is observed and the two ports in Mahchuria promised by Russia remain open to the worlds commerce.

WESTMINSTER ABBEYs DANGER

E
 Is Westminster Abbey in danger?
 This somewhat alarming question has just been raised, not by sensa- tional journal, but by very serious member of Parliament,Mr Charming. The ecclesiastical commissioners, it seems, have determined to clear away the residential area to the south of the Abbey and erect on the sites number of tall business premises.
 MT Charming does not object to the clearance What alarms him are the skyscrapers proposed to be erected. If a fire broke out on such premises 7 he remarked yesterday, s'their height would endanger the Abbey through the spread of the flames and the waiting of the burning debris.
 "This question of the safety of our public buildings is not a new one. If I remember arfght, the National Gal lery was seriously imperiled about 8 years ago by fire broke out in a jewelry shop near. In that case a bill was specially introduced into Par liament for the purchase of the jewel er's premises in order to secure the safety of the National Gallery.
 Mir Charming has questioned the first commissioner of works on the subject. but that gentleman declares that he has no power to regulate the height of the buildings in question: London Leader.

A DUEL TO THE DEATH.
Thrilling Fight in Which a FamoUs RObber Lost His Life in
 Australia.

A thrilling duel to the death is re- called by the announcement in the Sydney Government Gazette of the ap- pointment of Superintendent Walker to one of the most important police districts of New South Wales. Super intendent Walker is the Constable Walker who killed Capt Thunderbolt, a famous Australian bushranger and mail robber, on May 25, 1870. Thun- derbolt, whose real name was Freder- ick Ward, fired at Walker and galloped away Walker returned the fire and pursued. Both men fired at each oth- CT as opportunity offered. The Rocky river confronted the outlaw, but he took one daring leap. His horse was killed by the constable's next shot. Are you married?" cried Thunderbolt from the middle of the river. "Yes, replied Walker. Well, remember your family" "Oh, that's all right. Will you come out and surrender" "No: I'll die f1rst' "Then it's you and me for it." said the constable, as he plunged into the river. The duel continued in the water until Thunder bolt was mortally wounded. He died next day.
 Valuable Forest fin Formosa.
 A primeval forest, containing 100000 -camphor trees, measuring from seven to eighteen feet in circumference. has recently been discovered in Formosa. Tt is estimated that the yield of cam phor gum from these trees will amount to 13,000 ,000 pounds. The forest is not entirely composed of camphor trees, but contains other varieties. including an absndances ofs.sred- grainedn oak.

FORTUNES MADE BY BUTLERS He May Be Capitalist-One Who
 J,af+ S150 GOO
BY BUTLERs.

' Buffers in the old houses of the Brit ish aristocracy have always enjoyed a certain amount of prestige and re- spectability, and their loyalty and de- yotion to the interests of families in whose service they have grown gray furnish 6 favorite theme in those of the popular novels of the last hun dred years that deal with the English nobility.
 The species of halo thus acquired in the minds of the general public Dy these usually impressive leaders or high life below stairs is likely to pc rendered still more enulgent oy the announcement that the late Tnomas Oouchman. who died at the age or nearly Zn as butler of the Earl or Rayensworth, has left fortune. WHICH according to the records or the pro bate court. exceeds. $150,000. His en- tire life or rather. l should say, tne whole term of his domestic service extending over period of nearly naii century, has been spent ln the en- ploy of the family of Lord Ravens worth. and the estate which he mas left represents not merely ms saVlnss but also the result of several very fortunate investm ents, and hke- wise three substantial 1egacies.
 His will furnishes instructive reao- ing for 1t comprises legacies to the mike :. of Devonshire's cook, to the bead nurse of the children of the late Lord Londesborough. to the present Lord Iondesborough's head gardener, +o bis head keeper, to his clerk or works to number of the testator' s fellow domestics at Ravenswortn's $ castle. and likewise very handsome De- nuests to his master, as well as to the latter's grandchildren, the little daugh- ters of Captain and Lady Mary For ester Walker.
 r. may be recalled that a few days before the death of the late Lord Warwick his old butler, who had con ducted many party of American tourists over Warwick castle during +ha co71rse of his career, died leaving a fortune amounting to some $5O.OOO or more. by which it was reported at the time his master to whom he was
 devoted, benefited very extensively by the terms of his will How fortunes of this kind can be accumulated by servants who remaln for long number of years in the em- nloy of the great houses of the Eng l fish nobility was shown some time ago in the course of certain legal pro- 1 ceedings. during which footman in the service of Lord Northcote testified under. cross-examination that. although his wages did not exceed $500 year vet his place was worth S3.o00 year, thanks to the tins which he received from his masters guests, and like wise To occasional gifts and perqui- sites from members of the earrs fam 1 fly
 It will be seen from this that after all fhere are some compensationes in the life of the domestic servant, es- pecially when one rises to the emf. nence of butler in one of the old houses of the English nobility with free access to cellars that are often of national celebrity and the satisfaction derived from the knowledge that one
 is, after all, part and parcel of the | time honored institution known as the
 English aristocracy.-New York Fri

RUSSIA WILL NOT 60
Czar's Minister at Peking
 Says Troops Will Stay.
CHINA MUST GRANT DEMANDS FIRST
tM@nchuriR, tEaS Bone of Contention, Will Not Be Evacuated Today, as AEreed-YaIu, on Korean ."
 Rank, Fortified.


 YOKOHAMA, Oct. s.-The Russian minister at Peking, M. Lessar, has in- formed the Chinese foreign office that Russia will never evacuate Manchuria unless her latest demands are granted The forti6cation by Russia of Ton gampho, on the Korean bank of the Yalu river, is considered here as a pos sible. casus belli, being an infringe ment of Korean integrity.
 Baron von Rosen, the Russian min ister to Japan, has had another con- ference with Baron Komura, the Jap anese foreign minister. The Japanese premier, Viscount Katsura, had an au- dfence with the emperor the same day. It is now feared that the promised Russian concessions are insufficient to offset her continuous menace to Korea, nor is the Chino-Japa commercial treaty to be signed today thought ad equate to compensate for a permanent Russian occupation.
 It is currently reported here that defi- mite Russian demands concerning Man l churia and Korea have been presented to Japan by Baron von Rosen. Baron von Rosen has presented a note to the Japanese government con tending that Japan had no right to tn- terfere in the question of the evacua- ton of Manchuria, which solely con cerned Russia and China. The note further proposed the partition of Ko- req and suggested that Japan should take the southern half and Russia the northern provinces.
 1 The note was discussed by a council of ministers, and Marquis Yamagata, commander in chief of the army, had consultations with the ministers of war and marine. The Japanese gov ernment, adds the correspondent, then sent reply to Baron von Rosen, re- 1 jecting the Russian proposals. A crisis l is possible at any moment.
 China, it is said, has appealed to the Japanese minister, M. Uchida, for Jap anese assistance.
 The Japanese residents of Jefwieju have filed 8 petition with the foreign office at Tokyo asking that a Japanese war ship and troops be sent to protect their interests in view of the menac- ing attitude of Russia. The reply of Japan is not yet known.
