"salmo Roosevelt" the Name
Of New Fish.
IS NAMED AFTER ROOSEVELT
Beautiful and Rare Fish Found Only in
Small Tributary of Kern River
in California is to be
Propagated, <w~

"A newly discovered Pacific Coast fish
has bean named after President Roose-
welt, not by its proud, patriotic and.
presumably, Republican parents, but by
experts Of the fisheries bureau with the
presidents express permission. This fish,
so the experts declare, is found only in
one small stream, tributary to the Kern
river in the high Sieras Of California.
called Volcano creek. The president has
taken personal interest in its presera-
tion and has directed that every effort
be made TO propagate it artificially and
to distribute it over the United States.
1t is hardy and prolific and the experts
believe that it will thrive and multiply
in the cold streams of the Adirondaeks
and in other parts of the Eastern United
States as well as in the mountainous re-
gions OF the Pacific.
"An expedition sent to investigate the
fish made an enthusiastic report to the
president in which it was stated that in
richness of color this trout was not
equaled by any other known species In
form it was described as mo less beau
tiful. having perfect lines, and fins large
and well proportioned.' The report con-
tinues:
'Salmo Roosevelti' ito give the fish
its proper scientific name) is a golden
trout. When it jumps out of the water
in the sunshine. it looks as if it were
literally made Of gold. On the back it is
of a light yellowish olive color, but the
lower sides and belly are bright golden
yellow. and along the middle of each
side runs rosy band. The gills are
rosy. and so likewise are the fms, except
the back fin, which, as wen as the tail,
is olive and yellow mottled with black
spots. 1t is about foot in length"
For the protection of the fish the
president has been asked to extend the
limits of the Mt. Whitney military
reservation so as to include the whole of !
Volcano creek in order that all requisite |
regulations in regard to fishing may be
enforced.
THE fact that the president has
chosen Pacific Coast fish on which to
bestow his name is another evidence of
his acknowledged perspicacity. As it is
'unequaled by any other known species
and is vigorous and admirably fitted
for life in the turbulent waters in which
it dwells,' its selection for the honor,
especially at this time, is a peculiarly /
appropriate ones.
"The president, nevertheless, will be
lucky if he escapes being accused BY his
opponents of attempt by this means to
influence the Izaak Walton vote in the
house or senate.

tention of the police for several weeks
past, a hammer was used to commit the
crime.
The scene of the latest murder was

Heathfeld. lived two old maiden ladies
named Hogg. One OF them was found
dead in the house with her head almost
severed from her body. The other rush.

BILE. with fearful wounds in her head.
The occupants of this house hastened
to Heathileld, which il large villa
standing In walled.in grounds OF two
or three acres There, in the entrance
hall, was found the murdered woman.
The Misses Hogg enjoyed an income OF
$4,000 year each. Their brother is a
retired Colonel in the army, and also
wealthy in his own right. The old
ladies were eccentric and miserly. They
kept no resident servants for their
large house and grounds and stables but
servants came and did the work each
morning and then left.
The ladies were very fond OF travelling
and had lived some time in Japan. They
were about to 60 TO Japan again for
year or two. The lady murdered had n
romance in her life. Thirty years ago
she was engaged to marry an army Off
Ger, but they quarreled. and the two sis.
ters retired from society and buried
themselves in the country. Then they
Travelled for years, and finally settled
down as reeluses in Cranberry.
The police believe that some man knew
of their wealth and that no servants
were about the place after noon, and
attempted to rob the house computing
the crime of murder in order to escape.
But nothing appears to have been stolen.
The younger Miss Hogg, when she re-
covered consciousness, could throw little
light on the crime. His statement is as
follows:

Turkish Peasants More to Be Pitied
Than the Armenians, Who Get
So Much Sympathy.
LETTER FROM YOUNG TURK
BLAME FOR SOME OF THE TRoU-
Bile PLACED.

Paris. Feb. 4-Prince Sabaheddine,
a nephew Of the sultan Of Turkey and
chief of the young Turk party, has
addressed a letter on the subject Of
the regeneration of Turkey to Sena-
tor Pierre BertheIot, who recently ap-
pealed to President Roosevelt IN be-
half of the Armenians. The letter
complains that the revolutions, which
have torn the country for many years,
have been organized by the official
agents of certain powers for their own
ends and points out that while much
sympathy has been given the Arme-
mans, the Turkish peasants are more
to be pitied The agriculturists, the
prince says, are all forced to serve in
the army, and the women are left to
raise enough to pay the exOrbltant
taxes Intelligent and educated Turks
who are trying to gain reforms are ar
bitrariIy arrested, tortured, banished
and even murdered by irregular tri-
bunals. This persecution. however, has
only strengthened the movement.
The reforms imposed by Europe on
Turkey, the prince says, have accentu-
ated the troubles. The interests of
the Armenians and Turks are identi-
cal. The Kurds being Mussulmans,
but not Turks, ravage both Armenians
and Turks indiscriminately 1t would
be a great gain, he says, if the Kurds,
who are the finest race, could be at
tached to the soil, as their ferocity is
the direct result of their present So
cial condition.
The great and imperative reform,
Prince Sabaheddine continues, is ad-
ministrative decentralization in the
empire which would permit the in
dustrious inhabitants to exercise eff
fectiVe control over the mana gement
of the local affairs and take the nee
eSsary measures to maintain perma-
nent order and peace.
If Europe and America decided to
intervene, the letter says In conciu-
sion, they must in justice intervene
in favor of all the victims Of the pres
ent regime; besides which Turkey be-
ing the great link between eastern and
western civilizations by reforming and
bringing her into line with modern
IDEAS, it would efface the antagonisu.

Pekin, Feb. 4-Yuan Shi Kai, vice
roy of Chi Ii province, has discharged
Professor c. D. Tenney, the foreign di-
rector of education, who organized the
new school system in this province and
within three years made it a model
for the empire. Strong opposition has
arisen lately to foreign management of
the schools and particularly against
DR.. Tenney because he is an Ameri-
can. Yuan Shi Kai told DR.. Tenney
that he appreciated mis- work, but Yuan

THREE MEN IN THE
STEUNENBERG PLOT
Especial to The Herald.)

RCise, Ida, Feb 4-Since the detectives
and all others connected with the case of
the assassination of former Governor
Steunenberg closed up so tightly it has
until now been impossible to get so much
as an iItimatiOn of what they were work
ing upon. Now some outline of the theory
Of the officers appears. 1t has been sus-
pected for some time that they thought
one or more men were with Orchard at
Caldwell and were associated with him
in committing the murder. One of the
detectives who has been working on the
case and who has been in Boise within
the last two days, admitted that it has
been determined that Orchard had two
accompliceS in the commission Of the
deed These were in Caldwell on the
day of the murder. How many others
may have been connected with the plot
he did not indicate.
Efforts to learn who these men were
failed, but it is positive that one of them
Is SfmDkins, whose name has been con-
nected with the case for some time.

HUNGARIAN QUESTION
REMAINS UNSETTLED

Vienna, Feb. 4.-The negotiations
looking TO the settlement Of the Hun
garian situation ended in a complete
failure today, and Count Jules An
dressy, one of the leaders of the coali-
ton parties, returned to Budapest after
a lengthy interview with the emperor
king, who refused to accept the modi-
fed programme of the coalition. In
less the coalition yields at the last
hour this failure to reach an agreement
must, it is thought, result in an effort
by the crown to establish an absolu-
tism in Hungary.
