DR.. {, \. WOOLSEY KEEPS
DOCS TAIL IN BOTTLE

] Dr. E. FL. Woolsey of Oakland, ac-
companied by the dog referred to in
the following Examiner story, was here
last winter:
While DIR. E. H. Woolsey's famous
dog Frank has gone to that part of
heaven set aside for good CANNES, he
has left behind him that which was
behind him throughout his life-his
TAIL Frank was the smartest dog in
Oakland, and the doctor was justly
proud of him. Franks chief pride,
aside from that he felt 70. the doctor,
was his tail, which was of unusual
length and which circled in a graceful
''curly-queue' that was the envy of all
the thoroughbred pugs around the bay.
: When Frank, who was the first dog
to die of acute canine pulmonary tu-
bercu1osiS since Hector was a pup,
gave up the ghost last week, the doc
tor in his sorrow concluded to keep
something more substantial than a.
mere memory of his departed pet, so
he amputated Franks tail. He had it
properly embalmed, and now it reposes
among his relics, the most treasured Of
them all. It has ceased to wag, but it
still curls as proudly as it did in life.
The balance of Frank is inferred in
a private lot in East Oakland, and
thereby hangs another tale. DR.. Wool
sey resolved that the little pug who
had been his constant companion for
seven years should have as good a
funeral as money could procure. He
first tried to have the pody cremated,
but the privilege was refused. Then
he asked for permission to inter the
dog in a cemetery, but this, too, was
refused. So the doctor had Frank
buried on his private lot in East Oak
land. and he has announced that when
he dies his own remains viii be laid
beside those of his faithful little dog.
Dr. Woolsey leaves Oakland in a few
days for a trip south.

$2O,OOO.OOO Loan.

The bureau of insular affairs has received
cablegram announcing that the Santo
Domingo congress has passed resolution
delegating to the executive of that govern
ment full power and authority to act on
the $40 OOt 900 Dominion loan contract. The
vote was fourteen for and two against
The action was announced IN a cablegra m
received from Mr.. Puliam, the American
administrator of customs under the treaty
between the United States and Santo Do
mingo for the assistance of this govern
ment in the collection and applica ION of
the customs revenues of Santo Domingo
for the settlement of that government s
debt.
The session at which this authority was
given to President Caceres was an eX-
traordinary one, called for September 10 to
deal with the latest proposition for the
contract for the loan by Kuhn, Loeb & Co.
of New York. Original proposit!o ION subse-
quently modified, submitted by the New
York firm, for providing the money. and
which was taken to Santo Domingo by
Senior VelasqueZ, the minister for the treas
ury, was rejected by the Dominion congress
A counter proposition made by the con-
gress was rejected by the New York bank
ers. who then made another proposition,
which provided for the supply of the needed
SO. 100000 on condition that the loan be
taken at 80 cents on the dollar the bonds
to run for thirty years, with permission
for the Dominican government to redeem
them at the end of ten years. 1t was this
proposition that the Dominican congress
was called to meet September 10 to con-
slider.

DISPUTE OVER SUBMARINES
QUESTION OF TAKING TWO
TYPES OF BOAT.
Hearing Given by Secretary Metcalf
to Representatives of Oppos-
ing Companies.

An early decision will be made by Secre-
tary Metcalf in the matter of the awards
of the contract for supplying the navy with
as many submarine torpedo boats can be
built for $3,OO0uoO appropriated for this pur-
pose by the last Congress- The question of
the award has been before the department
for some time, bids for the contract having
been submitted April 20 by the Lake Tor
pedo Boat Company Of Bridgeport, Conn,
the Subsurface Boat Company of New York
and the Electric Boat Company of New
York. AS a preliminary to any conclusive
action the question was referred to a board
which conducted comparative test; of the
various submarines at Newport. This board,
1t was subsequently announced at the Navy
Department. had reported unanimously in
favor of the Holland boat of the Octopus
type as best adapted for naval purposes
Then question arose whether or not the
secretary OF the Navy justified in
dividing the contract for these vessels as
ne mad been urged to do, with the result
that the whole question was referred to the
Attorney General for an opinion A reply by
Attorney General Bonaparte was to the eff
rect That under certain conditions a division
OF the contract might be made so as to en-
aole the department to obtain boats of both
the Octopus and Lake types
Immediately on his return to Washington
secretary Metcalf took UP the matter and

SHORT CROPS IN EUROPE.
Report Of the Department of Agri
culture


The European crop report of the Depart-
ment of Agriculture for the month of Au-
gust says that a survey of European coun-
tries suggests a general marked decrease
in the production of wheat, as compared
with the exceptional crops last year, i'm
portant increases being expected only in
Russia (spring wheat) and France The
most serious losses are looked for in Hun
gary, the Balkan countries and Germany
The report says: I'm Hungary the effect
of the poor wheat crop may be lessened to
some extent by the substitution of corn
thus leaving larger quantities available for
shipment than the size of the crops would
seem to permit; in the Danubian states
however, deterioration of the corn crop is
now reported, owing to lack of rain A
failure of the latter crop would conse-
quently have serious consequences.
Rye promises fair crop in Germany
and an overaverage yield in Russia, but
elsewhere prospects are only moderate.
Barley is expected to give a satisfactory
yield in Austria-Hungary. Germany and
Russia. but fears are expressed as to quail
ny and color. Oats promise generally to
be the crop of the year In Italy and
throughout southeastern Europe lack of
rain is said to be threatening the corn
crop; at the same time the official estimate
of August Is placed the probable produc-
ton in Hungary above any preceding
crops owing to the large increase in acre
age. Sugar beets in general are extremely
backward. Both in France and Germany
the average weight of the roots and the
condition of the plants is much below that
at the same time last year. the sugar con-
tent is likewise lower, but in Germany
the difference Is not great In Hungary
sugar beets, while backward, are reported
to be developing gradually, and are ex-
pected to give satisfactory Yield
The unusual backwardness of the sea-
leaves much winter grain still to be
