Washington, May 10. - The naval
appropriation bill, carrying nearly
800, 900, 900, was completed today in
the house after one of the busiest days
of the present congress. The feature
of the days debate grew out of the at
tempt to defeat the appropriation for
the largest battleship OF its ella IS in the
world and the tenor of the speeches for
the big ship was that the American re-
public must be abreast of the nations
of the world in the strength of her
navy. The opponents talked for peace,
disarmament and arbitration, and in
sisted that there was no national need
for such large navy. The amend
ment introduced by Burton, of Ohio.
to strike out the appropriation for a
rival to the British Dreadnaught was
defeated, as was the amendment leav-
ing the construction of the battleship
to the discretion of the secretary of the
navy after the second Hague conference.
A final vote ON the bill will be taken
| tomorrow.

Washington, May Is. - The House
by decided vote today reaffirmed its
faith in the Navy department, defeat
ing an amendment of Tawney, chair
man OF the appropriations committee,
to limit the expenditures on ship to
10 per cent of the cost, a vote of con-
fidence coming after two hours hot
debate. Having reached the section Of
the naval bill dealing with increase
in the Navy and, realizing that consId-
cradle debate must ensue, the house ad-
iourned until noon tomorrow.
Tawney was emphatic in declaring
that it was both bad policy and bad adj
ministration to give to the Navy de-
partment the right Of spending $11,-
900, 900 for repairs of vessels without
30 much as being compelled to give an
account to any one for the money ex-
pended.

PEONAGE WORST FORM
Charged Against officers of Florida
 Lumber Company.

Pensacola, Fla, July 24-Peonage in its worst form is charged against the officers of the Jackson Lumber compa- ny at Lockhart, and United States dep- uties, armed with warrants for their arrest left here to-day for that place. If the allegations are true, about 100 immigrants, mostly Germans, are held in the lumber camps of that company virtually as slalyes,
 A party of Germans reached here to-day from the camp stating that they had escaped. They went to the Ger man vice consul for protection, and told him a taleof i'll treatment and cru city that has hardly a parallel in the south, They allege that they are com pelled to eat after the Americans, and whenever nothing was left they got nothing to eat. If they attempted to leave and were caught they allege they were severely beaten. They allege that when the men do not work to suit those in charge of them the men are stripped, held across a log and piled with a strap or any instrument and tortured

GIVING THE LIE"

A Lively Custom that Has Come to Prevail Strikingly in Certain Halls of
 State.
 Not so many weeks ago many potent, wise, and reverend seigniors at Washington were yelling 'Lie!" and Liar! until their throats were peeled and their collars wilted. Politicians are so polite, It seems as though they counted that day lost in which eminent official or humble correspondent was not denounced" as a deliberate, unquali- fled, and malicious liar. In fact, no other kind is worth notice. And soon the "fall campaign will be sizzling, and the fall crop of ''lies, 'falsehoods," and liars will be gathered. Really, we have known many persons to forget things or give an inaccurate account of things. We did not call them 'liars, 7" qualified or unqualified. For one sea son. they were not liars. Nobody gets anything straight entirely. Nobody can tell anything or remember anything without some percentage negligible or not, of error. For another resaon, we are deliberately and unqualifidely at tached to an unqualified whole skin. Of course, when we get an office, we shall yell 'Liar" as loud as anybody else. It will be With the Procession. -Everybodys Magazine for August.

THE TRICK OF A CHEMIST.
His Simple Method of Making a zoolc

His Simple Method of Making Zoolo-
 gical Transformation,
 When we happen to witness a pheno- menon which seems to violate natural laws we are not likely to forget its cause if 1t be explained to us The fol- lowing experiment, which I devised for my students, helped them to under stand as we'll as to remember some chemical data, says Dr. Guseave Michaud in the Scientific American
 A white cat, made of flexible paste board and imprisoned in glass jar is shown to the audience. The lecturer announces that without opening the jar or even touching it he will cause the' eat to undergo geological as wei as chemical transformation. He takes the support of the jar and pushes it forward in full view of the students. The change occurs almost instaneously. The cat takes a rich orange color on which black transversal stripes rapidly paint themselves. The cat has become a tiger.
 The whole transformation is produced by emanations of hydrogen sulphide, which is generated in the jar itself without any visible apparatus. The eat has been previously coated with solu- ton of chloride of antimony wherever the orange hue was to be produced, and with solution acetate of lead where- ever the black stripes were to appear. Both solutions are colorless. After the coated cat has been introduced in his glass cage a small piece of paste board is placed under awooden support so as slightly to incline the jar forward.
 A few decigrammes of pulverized sul- phide of iron folded in piece of blot ting paper deposited behind the cat on the elevated side of the bottom of the jar Two or three cubic centimetres of diluted sulphric acid are dropped with a pipette on the opposite side. When the performer wishes the transforma- tion to take place he takes the wooden support and pushes it forward as If he wanted to enable everybody to see bet ter what is going to happen, By so doing he suppresses the slight in- clination which kept the iron sulphide beyond the reach of the sulphurc acid. The gas is evolved and the formation of the orange sulphide of anthony and black sulphide of lead takes place in a few seconds

WAR TO THE KNIFE

(Continued from First Page) constitutional democrat, is a personal friend of Premier stolypin, is under stood to have given the plan favorable consideration, and 1t is said tonight that he probably will accept a ministry without portfolio.
 The Constitutional Democratic club and two other political clubs were closed to night by order of the police authorities.
 A caucus of constitutional democrats was being held at the clum named when 1t was closed. Prince Paul Dol gourokoff, chairman of the central ex- ecutive committee appointed at Viborg on Monday, has called a meeting of that committee, which will arrange a secret caucus tomorrow to discuss fur then tactics. Moscow constitutional democrats recommend the summoning of a national convention of the party, but this will scarcely be allowed by the authorities.
 Meetings are being held tonight in a dozen houses in St. Petersburg and just across the frontier railway employees, peasants, socialists and revolutionists of different shades of opinion are dis cussing the best plan of action to throw the whole machinery of the government out of grear.
 Agrarian disorders have broken out in the vicinity of St. Petersburg. The estate of General Baron Fredericks, aide de camp of the emperor, forty miles from the capital, has been plum dered by peasants, General Fredericks asked for troops from Gatchina, but was informed that the situation was too serious to permit of the changing of the present military dispositions.

WHAT IS THE "MUCK-RAKE?"

Thomas w. Lawson a Glowing Descrip-
 ton of the Far-Famed Instrument.
 At the beginning of the twentieth century" says Thomas w. Lawson, in the August Everybody's, this problem stood forth where all the American peo- pie could see it in all it's inevitable aW- fitness: If muckers continue to multi ply, if muck continues to increase, peo- pie will be loathsomely suffocated and the nation finally and horribly munu- dated. Then from the midst of the peo- pie stepped certain of their fellows and they said: We will analyze for all the people this muck We will dissect for all the people these muckers. We shall show the consequences that the people may rise and drive eternal damnatlon the muckers and sweep into ocean of eternal oblivion the muck, to the end that there being no muckers and no mack, the people may exist.
 And these plain of plain people said; We will devote our existence to this work willingly paying all penal ties, cheerfully suffering all hardships, refusing to be bullied, bought cajoled, or side tracked until our task is finish ed or We have fallen in the field of our labor, We will ask no pay; we will ac- cept no rewahd.
 These men went to work knowing full well the unpr5ftable of their task, and realizing all its dangers and at the beginning they decided that as the soldier has his gun, the doctor his seal pei, and the miner his pick, they must have an instrument for their work As the muck and muckers were contamlnating to all things with which they came in contact, and must be hauled and dragged and stirred to the end that their poisons could gc off into the air, they said; Our instru- ment shall be the rake, whose teeth will dig, and impale, and scatter, and spread tnd turns up and down.

HARTJE DIVORCE CASE.
More Interesting Developments Indi-
 cated in the Scandal,

More Interesting Developments lndi-
 cated in the Scandal.
 Pittsburg, July 24.-From the state ment made by Assistant District Attor- iey John $. Robb to-day there are more interesting developments Indicated in connection with the Hartje divorce case. MT. Robb while attending the hearing, said to-day that as soon as the Hartje case was submitted to the court there would be arrests which would de- velop pronounced sensations.
 It is rumored that if any one goes on the stand in the Hartje case and testi- fies that he broke open Madine's trunk arrests will follow, and in all proba- bility they will be made in the court room.
 It is also expected that great legal battle will take place when Hartje's at- torneys endeavor to show how the Ma dine letters were secured. The evidence in rebuttal of Mrs. Hartie's defense took new turn to- day.
 Silas Canady, negro from Washing ton, D. C., testified that Blanche Ashby, negress and former servant of the Iartjes, who in her deposition says she never observed anything improper about Mrs. Hartje's conduct, had told him that she lied.
 Canady said that when he learned Blanche Ashby was going to get lot of money for lying he wrote to Mr. Hartje to find if he could not get some money for telling the truth.
 Attorney E. G. Hartje, brother of the libellant, was asked on the witness stand why he had not told the court oi the finding of the letters alleged to have been written by Miss Helen Scott ir the room of rom" Nadine. MT Hartj( said that he had not been asked in par ticular about that He also said the papers which Attorney Freeman had said were stolen from his office had been found near the Dusquesne bank by a Mir. Smith and given him by Attorney Charles Locke.
 MT Hartje was scored on cross-ejam' ination by Attorney Freeman for re- taining letters, belonging to MT Free man, which, the witness said, had beer Hound in the street.

JEWISH SLAUGHTER HOUSE
COUNTY HEALTH OFFICER MAT
 CONDEMN IT.

 the Meat in New Haven--Commis-
 sioners Are After Garbage Collector
 Farnham-BilIboard on Elm Street
 Complained 0f--NIinOr Matters.
 The board of health in It's session held yesterday afternoon expressed in very certain terms it's attitude in con- nection with the Jewish slaughter house in Allingtown. The board decid- ed that 1t is the opinion of this board that meat killed In that house is unfit for human use and that the attention of the county health officer be called to it's unsanitary condition" Dr. Wright will confer with him to-day and ask Mir. Hoadley to condemn the house. This Is, however, only half the story. If this difficulty cannot be obvlated in this way steps will be taken to keep the meat out of this city. There are about sixteen Jewish butchers using the house at the present time and most of the meat is disposed of in this city.
 In speaking of the matter one of the commissioners said that the place was in such a filthy condition that it could not be renovated. The only course was to destroy it. The commissioners can not reach the house directly because 1t is not in their jurisdiction. Hence the matter was referred to the county health officer. Outside the appeal to this officer their only resource is the ban.
 Among the other questions discussed was as to whether fine should be inn posed on Contractor A. N. Farnam for being backward in fulfilling his con tract for the collection of the city gar haze. Mr. Farnam was present and stated to the commissioners that his lack of promptness was due to his in- ability to obtain help. The meeting voted to table the matter for a week. Meantime the city health officer was instructed to ascertain just how much effort Mir. Farhnam was making to full fl the terms of his contract.
 A petition was presented, signed by a large number of residents and tax payers of the vicinity asking the board to remove the billboard at the corner of Elm and State streets. "The billboard is getting to be a nuisance" said Con- missioner Rowland. It was voted that the owner of the premises be ordered to abate the nuisance.
 A complaint against Hugo's sausage store on Crown street was tabled
 In his report of the cases disposed Of since the last meeting Dr. Wright said that he had inspected the property complained of by Officer McAvoy on Monroe street and he recommended that the board see to the removal of the vault at 49 Monroe street since the owned was unable to do so. There was doubt as to whether the board had suf- ficient money on hand to do So and it was voted that the health officer ap- pear before the board of finance and ask for sufficient money to cover the cost.

RACE SPEECH CHEERHD.

His Revised Amendment to Model Ar
 bitratlon Treaty Adopted at Interpar-
 liamentary ference-Limitation of
 Armies and Navies'
 London, July 24-William J. Bryans proposed rider to the model arbitration treaty was discussed at session of the international council of the Inter- parliamentary union this morning, and resulted in it's being recast as follows:
 If a disagreement should arise which is not included in these to be submitted to arbitration, the contracting paries shall no resort to an act of hostility be- fore hey separately or jointly invite, as the case man necessitate, the formation of an international commission of in- quiry or mediation of one or more friendly powers, this requisition to take place, if necessary in accordance with article VIII. of the Hague convention, providing for a peaceful settlement of international conflicts.
 On the resumption of the sessions of the conference of the Interparliamenta- " union to-day the above was unani- mously adopted after speeches by the ex-Austrian minister of commerce, Won Plener, and Mir. Bryan was warmly supporting the amendment rider. The latter said that his amendment was aimed at widening the scope of arbitra- tion so as to include questions of na- | tional honor, the chances being hum dred to one that the proposed investi- gation of facts would also settle any question of national honor. If the hand of war could be stayed till the con- 1 science awakened wars would become more remote. The amendment, there fore, was a long step in the direction of peace.
 MT. Bryan's speech was brief, but it was eloquent and aroused much enthu- siasm among the delegates.
 Baron d'Estournelles de Constant, head of the French delegation, subse- quently opened the debate on the limit alton of military and naval forces, de- claring that if the powers were unde- cided among themselves how to act for their common interests they would Toe forced to do so, first by bankruptcy and then by revolution. The baron said that limitation of armaments had no con- nection with the chimera of disarma- ment. The arguments against disar- mament were based on the augmented expenditure of the powers, The aug mentatons in the United States were l due to the unfortunate example of Eu rope, bu in proportion to the population the American forces had not been in- creased unreasonably and the eXpendi- l ture had been augmented proportion ately, the armaments proving the in aptitude of the Americans to transform | themselves into nation of soldiers, Germany, he continued, commits tht
 grave fault of struggling with tn, United States for naval preeminence and thus divides her energies, both ol
 land and sea, uselessly, for the Amerl
 can states were united and inaccessible while the states of Europe were divided and will always be nlenaced by the pos
 sibility of a coalition against them.

DEFRAUDED OUT OF $eOO, ooo
Five Men Arrested for Selling Previous
 Iy Used Stamps.

New York, July 24.-Charged with selling mortgage tax stamps and stock transfer tax stamps that had already been used, five men were arrested this afternoon. The authorities charge that the state government has been de- frauded of over $20O,O00. The men, all of whom were arrested in Wall street, are Frederick Thompson, a clerk, fifty three years; William O'Reilly, twenty one years; Patrick King, sixteen; C.. H. Lawrence, twenty-three years, and Luke Mcsherry, retired fireman, all of Brooklyn. The case first was brought to the attention of the police June 27, when representatives of the state comptroller the attorney general and the district attorney informed Inspector Mclaughlin that they had reason to believe an organized band of men were engaged in selling these stamps after they had been once used. It is alleg- ed that the marks were removed by the use of chemicals, after which the stamps were ironed.
