attempted to assassinate, continued
this morning as one of the closing

house for some time. Rushing into
the hall, she smelled gas, but no
powder. She did not know, however,
whether exploded dynamite smehed
like ordinary powder or not.
John J. Eckleman, member OF the
San Francisco fire department, who
was with the company which respond
ed to the fire alarm following the ex-
plosion, reported smelling gas very
strongly when he arrived at the house.
The explosion was not a sharp re-
port, as he remembered it, but a loud
roar. Several other firemen gave sim
liar testimony. One of them John w.
Barry, said that ne had had consider
able experience with dynamite explo-
sions and that they differed in sound

New York, July 9.-Admiral Dewey,
who is sojourning at Richfield Springs
is quoted in an interview published
today as saying in regard to the
transfer of the battle ship fleet to the
Pacific: Tt is a pity we have not
ships enough to keep a powerful fleet
in both oceans; but since we have
not, it seems that in the interests of
peace it is best at this time that our
fleet should be in the Pacific. 1t is
necessary for us to hold the balance
Of power on the Pacific. An enemy
might take the Philippines and Ha-
waii, but as soon as we meet them
on the seas they would have to give
them up"
Nothing Warlike About 1t.
Oakland, Cal, July 9.-Secretary
of the Navy Metcalf, in deprecating
the warlike aspect that has been Civ
en- the order for a cruise of the great
battle ship squadron from the Atlan-
tic to the Pacific coast, said last
night that tine movement was a prac
tice cruise and that the fleet would
not be kept permanently in the Pa
cific With considerable emphasis the
Secretary voiced his opinion that the
warlike Interpretation given the fleets
movement was not justified by the
facts.
French Government Surprised.
Paris, July 9.-The French govern
ment greatly deprecates the alarmist
view of the Japanese-American situa-
tion taken by a section of the Paris
press, and the government has inspir-
ed statements placing the most opti-
mistic construction upon the plans
to dispatch the American battle ship
feet to the Pacific. The staement Civ
en- out this afternoon through the To-
cal press was as follows: 'tMuch sur
prise is manifested in diplomatic cir
cles over the excitement caused by
the plan to send the American battle
ship fleet to Pacific waters. Instead
of the step causing alarm there is
reason 20 believe that the decision of
the American government implies that
the negotiations proceeding between
Washington and Toxic cabinets are
making favorable progress. The Amer
lean government beyond a doubt
would not order this naval movement
if it were likely to embarrass the ne
gotiations which have been going on
for some time between the two gov
ernments."
