CLEVELAND, O., June 24.-Con-
gressman James S. Sherman Of Utica,
IN. Y, Republican vice presidential can
didate, who was taken Ill here last
Sunday with gallstones, while on his
way home from the Chicago conven-
tion, rested most comfortably today.
Attending physicians are Of the opinion
that the necessity for an immediate
operation has been passed.
1t is not expected Mr.. Sherman VII
be able to leave the hospital before
next Sunday.
Mrs. Sherman, who arose from sick
bed at her home in Utica, N. Y. yes
terday, to come here. was also much
improved today. SHE Is occupying a
room near her husband at Lakeside
hospital. Drs. Carter and Allen and
Sloan conferred with Mrs. Sherman to-
day as to the advisability of perform
ing an operation. Neither the physi-
clans nor Mr.. Sherman were of the
opinion that there was any apparent
necessity for an immediate operation.
The physicians expressed the belief.
however, that Mr.. Sherman should un-
dergo an operation as soon as he was
fully recovered and before the fail cam
paign begins in order to avoid another
attack. The vice presidential candi-
date agreed that this night be advis-
able.
Mr. Sherman was notified of the
death of former President Grover
Cleveland. He expressed great sor-
row and said he woul dsend tele-
row and said he would send a tele-
later in the day.

VENEZUELA OFFICIAL WILL
NOT DEMAND PASSPORTS
Charge In Washington Has Conference
with Acting Secretary Adee, but
Nature of Interview ls
Not Dlvuiged

WASHINGTON, June 24.-Senor We
log Goiticoa, the Venezuelan charge
d'affaires In Washington, was q
caller at the state department today.
He talked with Acting Secretary Adee,
but the latter declined to indicate what
the nature of the conference was. Mr..
Veloz has not the remotest idea OF
demanding his passports as the out
come of the withdrawal of jacob
Sleeper the American secretary ana
charge at Caracas. Mr.. Sleeper is COM
ing home by direction OF the state
department, and 1t Is admitted IN OF
fetal circles that the act means q
practical cessation of diplomatic reia-
tions with Venezuela.
Senior Veloz was not much discon-
certed, for Venezuela has had many
similar ruptures in the past and Is even
now not on speaking terms Win
France. Certainly In the absence OF
any direct instructions from his gov
eminent the charge will make no de-
mand for passports, and 1t IS quite evi-
dent that he scarcely expects sucn IN
structions. He will probably In an un-
official way take steps to learn tne
disposition of the state department To-
ward himself, and Ii may be stared tnat
personally Senior yeloz is highly es-
teemed in Official Washington.
1t develops that the program adopteu
by the state department is after all not
one of moment, but is the result o. q
careful deliberations on the parl o.
Secretary Root and Assistant Secre-
tary Bacon, dating back to last winter
when at the request of Senator Lodge
the state department submitted to tne
senate all the great mass OF cores
pondence exchanged between Washing
ton and Caracas within the last year
in regard to American claims. Thaf
the withdrawal of the American iega-
tion from Venezuela was complete
surprise to President Castro and that
he was somewhat startled by the dras-
tic action of the American government
there is no doubt.
What the next step in this interna-
tional complication will be is prob
lem that no one connected WIN tne
administration appears to answer, and
it is said the present is time to await
developments

COMMANDMENT AT TEHERAN
LASTS FOR HOUR AND HALF

BERLIN, June 24.-The Lokal AM
\ zeiger's special from Teheran dated
"Wednesday night, says:
sThe bombardment here today lasted
FOR an hour and half. AS was the
Cease yesterday, BOMBS were thrown
and the Cossack artillery brought UP
1.-TWO guns and fired upon the buildings
Sat close range. The house of Zahir
4 Ed Dowle is in ruins, the interior being
entirely demolished. Looters who en-
tered the house after the bombardment
smashed everything they could lay
their hands on. Hundreds of windows
in the European quarter were splin-
tered owing to the toncussion resulting
from the firing. The Persian soldiers
were participants in the plundering and
storming OF houses, The object of which
in many cases was simply to give an
excuse for looting. The soldiers were
permitted to load their booty on the
gun carriages and thus transport 1t to
their camp.
.'Everywhere throughout the city to-
day mobs were fighting over the plum
der and the cossacks had the hardest
task to drive then out of the streets.
Eventually the cossacks succeeded In
this, and toward evening when quiet
had been partially restored the shah
ordered the bazaars to open. otherwise
they would be bombarded. The heat
here is terrific and the air pestilential,
many dead horses are still lying m
front of parliament building, and prob
ably the corpses of men under the
ruins.
''The diplomatic corps announces a
state of siege has been proclaimed. The
situation is serious, for although the
people hitherto have respected Europ-
cans, 1t is feared the lives of foreign
ers will not be safe for long. Doubtless
further bombardment will occur soon.
Many refugees have fed to the British
legation, and the shah, 1t is stated, is
ignorant that the right of asylum has
been accorded them there.

frances to the British legation"

CALIFORNIA; FRUIT CROP
WILL BE RECORD BREAKER
More Than 300 Carloads Already
Shipped This Season, as Against
$50 for the Same Period
Year Ago

SAN FRANCISCO. June 24.--Recent
returns made to the California state
board of trade concerning the fruit
crop of the state more than confirm
the early reports, which were very
promising from almost every section
OF the state.
The crops of deciduous fruits are
very fine in nearly every section, and
the quality sent to market Is good,
prunes only excepted.
The shipments to eastern markets
thus far are more than double in
quantity than those of last year. Over
800 cars have been shipped east up
to date as against 800 carloads at the
same time last year.
The shipments include cherries, ap-
ricots, pears, peaches and plums, tht
latter fruit constituting the bulk of
the shipments.
As the season in California Is some
weeks in advance of the eastern states,
California fruits have a practical
monopoly and command good prices.
The almond crop all over the state
promises to be a record breaker.

chicken ranch near San Diego, Cal,
returned home tonight. He apparently

Harrisons lapse of memory is at

In washington, where many of those
who are now leading officials or the
government came into Office during his
administration and where thousands Of
residents met him at social functions
at the White House, the news OF Presi-
dent Cleveland's death caused pro-
found sensation.
THE White House and many officials
received their first news through the
Associated Press. Many tributes were
paid to the memory of the late presi-
dent by those who had succeeded to the
cabinet councils of his regime. Among
them were Secretary Cortelyou, who as
confidential stenographer to the presi-
dent during the closing days of the last
Cleveland administration had an IN
innate association with Mr.. Cleveland
Admiral Dewey said: I'm the death
of former President Cleveland the coun'
try has lost a citizen whose wisdom
courage and patriotism were of tht
highest order. The whole country anc
its interests were the subject of his un,
rernitting industry and best efforts, and
he ignored any effect which g. stric'
performance of duty might have upor
his political fortunes. When during
his second administration financial dis.
aster was impending he met the sttua'
'tion with decision and resource, in 9
manner for which history will give full
credit. He believed in the usefulness o.
an efficient navy and deemed of grea
Importance the character and qualities

might at any time be placed questions
whose decision would involve peace OF
