Ifattering character. The ambassador.
with his experience at Rome behind
him, is quickly mastering the difficult

BRIDGE STREET CONTROVERSY
Alex Gilbert Makes a Reasonable
Proposition for Street.


Alex Gilbert was up from Seaside
yesterday, and states that the conten'
ton of P. Lawler G. Co. that they are
off from Bridge street and that his
property in on the street is not bourn
out by the facts. 1t is understood that
Mt. Gilbert made proposition to the
county court agreeing to do anything
reasonable and just In the matter in
order to secure a 30-foot street The
people Of Seaside are very much in
terested in maintaining a good street
as It is the main thoroughfare to the
grove. 1t is very probable that an
amicable agreement. will be reached.
Where the difficulty seems to be Is
that G. A. Mcguire promised to give
-four feet or the south, TO correspond
with a like amount from Mr.. Gilbert,
but the property was sold to r. Law
Ter & Co. before any deed was made
and the death of Mr.. Mcclure pre-
vented it. The town authorities have
always been Of the opinion that the
width Of the street had been perman-
emily established, and consequently
no provision was made in the original
charter Of the town to acquire property
by condemnation proceedings should
they so desire.

ST. Petersburg. April 25.-Charles
M. Schwah seems to be making big
impression here. His reputation as a
steel expert preceded him and he is
being shown much attention. Grand
Duke Alevis has discussed with him
for several hours matters relating to
Russian naval program, which as ten-
tatively elaborated by the technical
committee, involves the expenditure of
$35o.0o0,000 during a period of ten
years. Mr.. Schwab has also conferred
with Admiral Doubasoff, head of the
technical committee, and other promi-
nent naval officers. The war has con>

commensurate with Russia's aspira-
tions for the future. In q general way
it Is believed that certain arrange
ments touching Americas share in the
construction, which must go to for
eign yards, have been already agreed
to in principle. The details, however,
may require some time to work out.
Mr.. Schwab appears TO be entirely
satisfied with the result of his visit
and negotiations have made such rapid
progress that he expects to be able TO
leave within few days.
1t is considered great compliment
to the genius of America that the Rus
sian naval authorities desired to con-
suit Mr.. Schwab's opinion.
