Demand Action by
Honduras.

New York, May 31.-Every day swells
the Indebtedness of the failed Export
Shipping Company. whose president,
Francis c. Bailey. is said to have freight
ed the former Clyde liner Goldsboro with
$4,000 worth of his customers goods and
an equal or greater amount Of specie and
sailed for the republic Of Honduras.
On Friday L. L. Haar, the consulting
expert of the National Association Of
Manufacturers. which sis backing the
search for Bailey, estimated that the la
bilities Of the concern will fall not far
short of a quarter of a million dollars.
Joseph Fried, of the firm Of Fried &
Czaki, which is counsel for Receiver
Boise, said over the telephone to-day,
however, that, in his estimation, the LA
bilities were not likely 70 reach that
amount. What either the British or the
American government can do about il is q
question. Neither country has an extra
ditiion treaty with the republic OF Hon
duras. and the utmost extent 70 which
they can proceed is 10 make a joint de-
mand upon Honduras TO give up the
GoIdsboro and its occupants. What eject
this demand will have upon the HonduIan
government is predetermined
British Consul General Bennett said to-
night that he had received a cable dis
patch from the British Minister at Guate-
mala. saying that the GoldsbOro had re-
turned from Ceiba, whittier she was re-
ported TO have cleared from Puerto Corte7
on May q, back 10 the port Of her de-
parture The reason for these maneuvers
is unknown. The Goldsboro may be on a

sentative c. c. CarlIn has won over many
voters in Alexandria County TO his sup
port that a few weeks ago expressed
themselves as being in favor OF the nomi-
nation of Mr.. r.. Lindsay Gordon for
Congress on June next.
II Is generally conceded that Mr.. Carlin
has done everything for the people OF the
Eighth district OF Virginia that could be
done since he took the oath OF Office last
December. He has been untiring in his
efforts to better aad promote the welfare
Of his constituents. AS n Congressman
he has been prompt affable, and congen-
ial and has laid the foundation for The
speedy enactment OF many laws that will
rebound 10 the benefit Of his Congression-
al district.
The consensus OF opinion OF the voters
Of Alexandria County is that he should
be renominated at the polls on June
next, and in all fairness and business
given az least one Congressional term ot
two years TO press his bills and important
measures through Congress, so as TO show

Wearing the Uniform.

Editor The Washington Herald;
The washington Herald. on May "a.
contained a story the caption Of which
reads. Respect for the Uniform-Secre-
tary Metcalf May Recommend Law to
Protect Sailors" It is the old, old story
enlisted men. serving our country and
flag, being insulted because Of the wear
ing of the soldiers. sailors. and marines
regulation uniform. This latest insult. to
which your paper refers has been taken
up by our Secretary of the Navy. Mr..
Metcalf, and by the mayor of Phila-
delphia-a city Of continental fame-Hon.
John E. Reyburn. and II is TO be hoped
that Philadelphia will fall In line with
Providence, K. l., and pass a municipal
regulation against this growing evil. The
uniform should be. like our flag, respected
by all citizens. 1t should not be worn by
other than enlisted men and officers, and
the moment either enlisted man or Off
Ger. by his conduct brings disCredit upon
the uniform he wears, that uniform should
be taken from him. Also any man who
deliberately offers insult to an American
sailor or soldier because Of his uniform
should be punished.
VIII Congress ever take this matter up2
During the past week the Senate passed
bill TO prevent the dissertation Of the
American flag" but will Congress ever
put this patriotic measure on our statute
books?
Millions Of our people. with loving hands
and patriotic hearts, last Saturday, did
honor t. the memory Of the brave men
who are sleeping in our national Gene
teries, all of whom at one time wore the
uniform and defended the flag. Then, LET
our lawmakers, national. State. and mU-
nicipal, give us some regulation which
will stop this reasonable business of be-
lifting our flag and uniform.

well for the patriotic organizations al
