Assistant Secretary of State.

Oyster Bay, n. Y, Aug. l5.-If
Secretary Root intends to appoint Col.
William Carey Sanger assistant Secre-
tary of State, he has given President
Roosevelt no hint of that purpose. As
the head of the State Department, how
ever, Mr.. Root will be given an absO-
lutely free hand, and may make as many
changes as he deems advisable. Col.
Sanger has been close friend of Secre-
tary Root for many years, and during
the latter's service as Secretary of War
was his assistant. The fact that Mr..
Root and Col. Sanger are now travelling
together in Labrador, lends plansibilty
to the report that the appointment is
imminent, bat it is likely that Mr.. Root
would not make the announcement be-
fore consulting the President about the
matter. Assistant Secretary Francis b.
LOOMS, whom Col. Sanger would re-
place were he to receive the appoint
ment, will place his resignation in Mr..
Roots hands as soon as the latter re-
turns to Washington 1t is even pos
sible that he has forwarded the resigna
ton to Mr.. Root since the latter started
on his northern trip, but as this action
is Away taken by subordinate officials
when there is change at the head of
their department, it does not necessarily.

by request or by his own volition.

Yellow Fever.

New Orleans, August 15.-The city
has settled down to phlegmatic work in
a long fight against the mosquito and but
little excitement exists even among the
most timid.
The sanitary organization, of which
there is one in each of the seventeen
wards, is determined to have all the els
terms of the city screened despite all
opposition. Altogether there were thir-
teen new cases discovered in the parishes
outside of the city limits yesterday.
The resort at the West End, where the
summer theatre has been running all the
year, is nightly pa:ronized by crowds quite
as large as usual. Arrangements are
being made to open some of the theatres
of the city on or about September |.
There have been a total of l66 deaths
out of LOIS cases up to last night,
making the death rate only l6 per cent.
There were 81 cases and Is deaths yes
terday. Accepting the mosquito theory
as most intelligent people do here, this
mortality serves TO quiet rather than to
disquiet the citizens.
Up to noon today Is new cases of
yellow fever and five deaths from the
disease were reported. Very few reports
are coming in for investigation.
DIR. John Guiteras arrived here today
and says he believes the fever will be
entirely stamped out within forty days.

Prnpress With Treaty.

The Russo-Japanese peace ENJOYS dis
cussed the first three articles of the peace
treaty yesterday aud all were agreed
upon, the first, relating to the future Of
Korea, being somewhat modified in its
language.
The second article is believed to relate
to Russia's evacuation of Manchuria.
The crucial test of the treaty may be
deferred several days.
In st. Petersburg Official and public
opinion is that Russia is not crushed
power, and unless Japan lessons her de-
mands, particularly as to the indemnity
and oession OF territory, it would be bet
ter for the war to continue.
japanese papers generally expect Rus
STA to refuse to accept the proposed
terIAs.
II is stated that Korean merchants are
complaining that they are being greatly
embarrassed by the japanese financial
reforms.

The NEWS comes from Washington
that recent examination made by
Commissioner Greene. of the United
States Civil Service Commission, in the
Internal Revenue Service in North Car
DINA, Tennessee and Kentucky reveals,
he saws. the fact that those who are not
republicans refuse almost without excep-
ton to take the civil service examinations
in those States. He attributes this to
a general conviction there that the fede-
raj offices belong to the dominant politi-
cal party. This may all be revelation
TO Commissioner Greene, but it is not so
to many others. Indeed few democrats
ever present themselves for the civil ser
vice examination in any of the States,
and for good reasons. Commissioner
Greene refers, and apparently with sur
prise, to the fact that in the Danville (Ky.)
district out OF, 173 persons who are
known to have taken the exami-
nation since the Inauguration Of McKin-
lev in 1897, only two were democrats.
Only two; well it would be safe to wager
that these did not land in a snug harbOr.
Even had they, way would soon be
found to get rid of them, civil service
or no civil service. Mr.. j. E. B.
Stuart. one of the late converts to the
republican party, or, as Mr.. John ).
Wise soaptly termed all such, ''apostates
for the price of their aposlacy," only
last week gave practical proof of the
ease with which all democrats can be
dismissed from the customs service in the
South. If there were many democrats
ia the federal offices in this revenue dis
trict when Collector Summers entered
upon his duties, it is not generally
known; certainly there will be few in the
future under the regime OF Colonel
Slemp and his son.
