MARKsMANsHIr IMrnovINa.
Standard of Army is Higher Than Ever

 Esefor~..
 WashinGton. July 7---In letter to Acting Secretary Oliver, President ISooseveN has expressed his gratifica- ton at the remarkable progress that is being made by the enlisted men or the army for craftsmanship.
 Before the Spanish war the Ameris can private soldier was admittedly the finest shot in the world. The addition of n large group of volunteers had the effect of greatly reducing tho average of the rif1emen.
 But since the organization following the war, every effort has been made to stimulate interest in craftsmanship and their result is that today the av- craze Is probably as high if not higher than 1t was at the beginning of the war.
 The figures laid before the President that elicited his approval showed that in 1903 there were in the whole army fifty eight expert riflemen. S4s sharp shooters and 5c0 marksmen, as the va- rious grades are known technically.
 Tn the following year these figures had increased to 264 expert riflemen, l.439 sharp shooters and 2,4s4 marks men, Now 1t is shown that last year the record stood b96 expert riflemen. 3.371 sharp shooters and s.4s6 marks men.
 K General Oliver attributes the i'm 5provement in a large measure to the fact that Congress allowed an increase Ihf pay of s3 per month in the case of NAxpert riflemen, s2 for sharp shooters Hand s1 for marksmen.

5washington, July. 7.--Former United States Senator J. K. Jones Of Arkan- saa. who was chairman of the Demo cratic National Commi.tee when VII liam U.

 T have been watching political de- velopment and have noted with grati- ffcation the vindication of Democratic principles. You have correctly stated my position. As I write to Col wet more, I shall do nothing to secure another nomination and do not want one unless the conditions seem to demand It. may add that enjoy the freedei, of private life and feel that I can do some good without holding any office
 sThere are, however, certain reforms which I would like very much to see accumulated and to assist in the ac~ of these reforms l am willing to become the party candidate again if when the time for nomination arrives. the advocates of reform are in control of the party and think that my candidacy win give the best as- surance of victory. If some one else seems more available shall be even better pleased.
 '.I need not assure you that I am more interested fin seeing our princi- ples triumph than I am of the per sonnei of the ticket. The country needs to have Jeffersonian Democracy ap- piled to all the departments of the gov ernment state and national. and am content to help to make this applica- ton.

FEARS FOR PEARY
ANOTHER ARTTC EXPLORATION
 HAS F.ROvsN FUTILE.
Nothing Has Been Heard From COm- mander of The Roosevelt and Re- ports Indicate That Hope
 Is Lost.

Chicago. Jsly IA dispatch to The Record Herald from Washington says that Captain Robert D. Peary has sac rificed his life In the effort to discov- CT the north pole is the fear of the naval men here. who are worried by the failure to get any tidings of the shir Roosevelt. which sailed for the arctic regions July IS. 1905,
 Advices from the American Geo. graphical Society add to their feays. Reports are that the weather in the far north this spring and early summer was more than usually vigorous. that severe storms have been frequent and that the Ice is heavy. Consequently 1t Is feared that Peary's ship may have been ground to pieces by the drifting fIoes.
 The explorers plans. when he left last summer were to proceed to the far finest possible point of land north of Cape Sabine and within 500 miles of the pole. There he was to establish a winter base and make all prepara- tions for a dash across the ice this summer as soon as weather conditions would permit. This he expected would not occupy more than six weeks. and according to his calculations, he would reach home not later than October or this year.
 Esquimaux and dogs. 1t Is supposed were taken aboard the Roosevelt last summer. for 1t is on the hardy inhabi- tants of the polar regions that Peary always relied. It was thought, now ever. that a whaling vessel might bring some ttdinRs of the Roosevelt but fall ure of any news of the expedition to reach the outside world for so many months Is arousing the keenest anxiety.

NOTICES ARE SENT
RAILROADS MUST TREAT LIVE
 STOCK HUMANELY.
Secretary Wilson Puts Them On Notice That Any Violations Of New Law VIII Be vfgorously
 Frosecuted.

Washington, July 7.--RaiIroads and stock shippers were today mailed no- tices of the new law to prevent cruelty to animals while in interstate transit
 The statement was issued from the Department of Agriculture. The law aH amended by Congress at Its last ses- sion provides that live stock shall not be confined in shipment for period longer than twenty-eight consecutive hours without unloading in q humane manner into properly equipped pens for rest. water and feeding. for a period of at least five consecutive hours un- less prevented by storm or by other accidental or unavoidable causes which cannot be anticipated or avoided by the exercise of due diligence and fore sight.
 1t is provided further that on the written request of the owner or per- son in custody of the shipment the time of confinement may be extended to thirty-six hours. This request, however, must be separate and apart from any printed bill of lading or other railroad form. The manner of esti> mating the time of confinement is the same under the new law as it was under the old.
 The time during which the animals have been confined without rest. food or water on connecting roads is i'm
 
 that when the twenty eight hours ex- pires in the night time that sheep shall be unIoaded. but they may be carried on in a continuing. transit to a suitable place for unloading until daylight, subject to the aforesaid limitation of thirty-six hours.
 Secretary Wilson says be will see that the extension is not taken ad- vantage of in any manner. In a let tor to the railroads he said:
 T have determined to enforce this law strictly and rigidly and give you this notice at this time in order that you may be able to so arrange the mat ter of transportation of live stock on your lines that violations of the new law need not occur At the expira- ton of thirty days from the date of this letter the inspectors of the de- partment will be directed to report all violations of the law and these will be transmitted to the Department of Jus tice for institution of suit and the collection of penalties. Under the old law the department pursued the plan of allowing railroad companies to con fess judgment any pay the minimum penalty of $100 per case. This practice will not be followed in the enforcement of this law"

July 7.--workmen are today preparing the first houseboat for use at the mouth of the Mississippi river in carrying cut yellow fever quarantine. regulations and at the same time enabling fruit steamers to rush their perishable cargoes to the docks at New Orleans without tho costly delays now caused by a remark ably strict quarantine system.
 The house boat is for use both in isolating crews and in enabling sec- ond crew to bring fruit steamers from quarantine to New Orleans without danger of injecting the city. The reg uiations governing the houseboat are combined from the orders of Surgeon General Walter Wyman of the Ma rine Hospital and Public Health Ser iations promulgated by the Louisiana State Board of Health.
 These precautions are made neees- sary by reports received by the State Board Of Health which up to today in- dicate that all except two Of the trop- ical fruit ports from which these steamers corle are now infected with yellow fever.
 4 fruit ship having the privileges Of the house boat will proceed to sea un- der the. following regulations: No member of the crew can come ashore at New Orleans except the captain to clear his ship, and that must be done during daylight. The unload ing crew is taken off at duaranti tine and placed aboard she houseboat while a sea going crew which has been isola- tod on the houseboat is placed aboard the steamer. From the time of leav- ing New Orleans until completing the round trip to the fruit port and return the steamer Is fumigated four times with sulphur and pyrethrum.
 At tho fruit port afsea going crew Is not allowed on shore. the captain again being the only man to go ashore. Returned to quarantine this crew Is again isolated on the houseboat and suppianted by the unloading crew, The unloading crew is kept eontin- ually under guard by the State Board of Health to see that no other menAbey gets ashore by stealth. Besides e11e captain, the engineer in charge iH ets lowed to pass quarantine with thp steamer. fi
