GERS. bound for hunting trip in Mexico. passed
through here last night. The admiral discussed
the Venezuelan question now before the State
Department and said:
There is doubt in my mind but that the
trouble with Venezuela will come to end very
soon. AT least they had better awaken TO the
fact that it will do no good to prolong the con-
troversy."
In discussing the Russian-Japanese war. he
said:
The whole world is opposed to the outrageous
conflicts that have been brought about in this
war. 1t is shameful to think of the awful
slaughter of human beings and even should the
hostile countries show any inclination to con-
tinue the fight, 1t will be but a question of time
until other powers will interfere to prevent any
further loss of life in such an atrocious fashion
as has characterized all of the battles in this
fight.
As a matter of fact, it seems altogether prob
able that this will prove the last of the big

SET FIRES TO FIGHT THEM.
RzYONNE NAN CONFESSES.
IVould Haze Horses Hitcbed Up
When Other Firennen ArriUed.

The police OF Bayonne yesterday arrested
7v,pes McInerny, OF Arnericus Engine Company
NJ that city. and obtained from him confession
that he had for months been starting fires for
,he sake Of fighting them when the alarm would
be turned in. He has record Of 100 per cent
for attendance at alarms. and frequently when
the other iremen reached the house iniresponse
10 an alarm they would find Mc1nerny'with the
horses hitched and ready for them.
McInerny admits firing fifteen buildings in
the Avenue c neighborhood within three months
The police think he has been setting fires for
more than six months.
McInerny Is twenty-five years old. He lives
at No 123 West 20th-st.. Bayonne For more
than six months fires in that neighborhood have
heen frequent Last winter there was a series
of fires involving many narrow escapes. The
method used was to enter the cellar of a frame
three or four story tenement house, OF which
there are many in Bayonne, unscrew the gas
meter used for measuring the hall gas and then
set fire to the gas pouring from the supply pipe
For time such fires set about once in
iorty-eight hours.
McInerny says ne had reason to start the
fires other than the love of the excitement and
fondness for fighting fires Alarms were not
frequent enough TO suit him, so he started to
create causes for them, and found it so divert
ing that he continued.
A short time ago. he declared he was at an
entertainment, and not caring TO go to bed after
leaving it. decided TO have a fire. No material
for kindling being handy, he went to the engine
house, got some waste. saturated it with oil
and set fire TO it in the cellar of a building at
23d-st. and Hudson Boulevard. He then hurried
10 the engine house. ran the horses out and was
about 10 unharness them again, thinking the
fire had not started. when the alarm was
turned in.

a decree for the reform of the monetary system as
authorized by Congress last December. The deere
establishes the peso silver dollar at a value Of
fifty cents gold. and the theoretical unit of the
Mexican currency is defined TO be the dollar or
peso of seventy-fve centigrammes CT gold An
important feature of the decree is a provision for
a reserve exchange fund which at first WI consist
of SlO000000 $5 100000 and may be increased The
first plan did provide for the Immediate e@tab-
lishment of this fund. but it is deemed wise
to start one simultaneously with the beginning
of the new monetary system.
The mints viii be closed April 16 TO the free
coinage of silver and the new monetary system
will go into effect May l.
