parantly are desirous of having Fed eral inspection of canned salmon similar to that in effect for many ears with respect to all kinds of neat. both fresh and canned. At the last session of Congress an Act was passed amending the the Pure Food Act to provide for such in- spection of all sea foods sold in inter- state commerce. This Act was ap- proved June 22, 1884. Under this
 measure the Secretary of Agricultur, upon application of any packer of sea food sold in interstate commerce,
 may at his discretion designate supervisory inspectors to inspect the premises and the packing of the food. The packer must pay all costs
 T connection with such inspection : he benefit the operator has is that ils product, if put up under approved conditions, will be stamped as hav-
 ng been inspected and passed by the
 Federal Government. In the mark cts of the United States or even those of foreign countries, such stamp might aid materially in the sale of the inspected product as against similar products not so inspected.
 The drought in southeastern Alas Ia may havs .aais results not ex- pected by persons who fail to take Into consideration the effect of such drouths upon the salmon run. 4 i.amber> of years ago in the Karluk
 egion there was an extraordinarily iarge. escapement but to the aston ishment of most people, on the return of the cycle very few sal mon appeared. It was then remem eered that the year Of the large escapement was also a year of severe and prolonged drouth in that district and hehce the scientists in the Bur eau of Fisheries concluded that the arouth, in lowering the lakes and trying up the streams, prevented the spawn from matching and thus led to the very small run on the return of the cycle.
 ;. It is feared that the same thing may happen in southeastern Alaska two years hence with respect to the pink salmon.
 The development of air transporta- ton in Alaska has been receiving considerable attention in the Depart ments here during the last two weeks. The Delegate has had a series o1 conferences on the subject with Dr. Ernest Gruening, Director, Division of Territories and Island Possessions with Secretary Roper, and with Col. Vidal. The Alaska Road Commission. in cooperation with MT. Murray Hall, inspector of the Bureau of Aeronautics, has, worked cut a com 8rehensive plan for the building of air fields which are the first necess- ity in the establishment of any air lines or the development of air trans portation. These fields cover 2 large portion of Alaska and contem- plate an estimated expenditure of S903,O00. This plan will probably be used as the basis of whatever is done either by Congress, or the Pub lie Works Administration in the building up of air traffic in the Territory. It is realized here that on account of the vast distances to be covered in Alaska the expendi- ture of money for air fields at this time will probably do more to promote quick development of the Territory than an equal sum of money expended for some other purpose.

In a rebuke against foreign
visitors abusing the hospitality OF
the United States, the Lido Civic
Club, at a meeting held at the

a resolution denouncing the Rev.
William Temple, archbishop of
York and primate of England. and
other foreigners. The resolution
read:
1--WE, the Lido Civic Club, of
the District of Columbia, pro-
test against the breach of hos
pitality of Englishmen, as well
as those of other countries, who,
in the guise of friendly visits
to this country, attack our Con-
stitutiOn and attempt to change
our neutral attitude toward
European conflicts.
1--WE protest against those or
ganizatiOns in this country
which supply the means for
these attacks, and,
we are In accord WIN ana
commend those who have taken
this stand.
Resolved, on this 18th day Of
December, 1885,"
Tentative plans were made last
night for an Italian benefit night
to be held in February.
Count Antonio Alberti, recent
arrival in the United States, who
expects his first diplomatic ap-
pointment here in the coming
year, was guest speaker. He de-
Tended Italy's position in the

England, with all her col

ward world supremacy"

EXHUMAT|0N
SOUGHT

WISE, Va, Dec. 20 Q.N.S0.-A
petition was being prepared today
for presentation to the circuit
court for permission to exhume
the body of Trigg Maxwell, who
died after being hit on the head
with a slipper heel by his daugh-
ter, Edith, 81.
After a trial that attracted ma
tionwide interest because it pitted
the mountain code against modern
justice, Edith was convicted by a
jury Of IL men and now faces a
sentence of 25 years in prison.
The girl claims she struck her
father in self-defense when he
started to whip her because she
came in after the 9 p. m. curfeW
hour of this section.
Earl Maxwell, d brother, has
just returned from Richmond
where he consulted three eminent
State doctors who bolstered his
own opinion that his father died
from apoplexy rather than from
the heel blows on the head.
Earl believes his fathers heavy
drinking just prior to the fight,
plus his rage at his daughters
Haunting the mountain code
caused his death from a stroke.
Trigg's brother, Fred, was the
victim of an apoplectic stroke two
years ago.
Edith's mother, Mrs. Maxwell,
is under indictment as an acces-
sorry to the murder. She will be
tried in the spring. Under the
Virginia law she is the only one
who can request the disinterment
of the body. This she has agreed
to do. Earl said.
Edith is still in Jail here pend
ing an appeal to the Virginia Su-
preme Court Of Appeals, A pre-
vious effort to have the verdict
brushed aside was denied by the
trial judge.

The unhappy sudden illness oi
DR.. Leopold Stokowski, preventing
his appearance with the Philadel
phia Symphony Orchestra last
night at Constitution Hall, turned
out happily with everybody appar
emily we'll satisfied with the sub
stitute conductor, Alexander
Smallens.
AS Mr.. Smallens had been un
able to rehearse the orchestra ir
the Bach transcriptions scheduled
by Stokowski, a welcome change
was made in the first part of the
program, substituting the overture
Beatrice and Benedict" (Berlioz)
and ID Minor Concerto" (Schu
mann.
The Concerto in D for Violin
and Orchestra" (Brahms), with
Fritz Kreisler the soloist, was
given as per schedule. The orches.
ira proved a more effective and
satisfying background for KreiS'
ler's art than the piano in his re-
cent appearance here.
Kreisler's broad tones and close
adherence to the time make his
work with the orchestra more dra-
matte than when heard with the
piano. The more sustained and
varied accompaniment seemed to
inspire him to greater effort o1
Interpretation, much to the enjoy
ment of the audience.
Kreisler was called back a mum.
ber of times at the conclusion of
this long and taxing concerto, but
the audience was not rewarded by
an encore. Few seem to realize
that when the Philadelphia Sym
phony Orchestra appears here or
in Baltimore. the entire personnel
is always in a hurry to catch the
II o'clock train for home, and
encores are not in order.
When the announcement was
made at the opening of the con.
cert that DR.. Stokowski would
be unable to conduct, some in
the audience gave vent to their
feelings with loud boos. But
when the substitute conductor
Alexander Smallens. had con.
cluded the first part of the pro,
gram, he was given as great an
ovation as Stokowski would have
been likely to have received.
Although new to Washington
audiences, Smallens has served
as guest conductor with many of
the most prominent symphony
orchestras in this country. The
opening work by Berlioz was the
sort of music that makes use of
most of the resources of the
great orchestra and was proba-
bly, appreciated more than the
Bach organ transcriptions would
have been.
Likewise, the Schumann con-
certo gave the conductor ample
opportunity to show his mastery
of the baton. His signals are de-
cisive and easily understood. He
directs with an energy that re-
ceives instant response to his
every whim. The audience was
quick to recognize his skill and
there remained none to repeat
