‘ Solis bury Has Burned His Bridges
on the oshoda Question.
DISCUSSION WITH FRANCE
Tune of the London Press is‘ Grave.
England “'lll Maintain tier Assertion
. of Exclusive Rights at Fashoda. The
French Newspapers View the Affair
With Cnlmness
London, Oct. 11.-All the papers ap-
plaud Lord Salisbury’s firmness in the
Fashoda question and the fact that he
has approved all the doings of General
Kitchener. The Times has the follow-
ing:
“While not despairing of an amica-
ble settlement, we cannot but think
the situation extremely grave. Lorri
Salisbury has taken up a. position from
which retreat is impossible after the
publication of the Blue Book.”
The Daily Chronicle thinks that the
situation “only grave on paper and
not in reality.”
The Daily News says: “er hope
Lord Salisbury will be able to provide
a golden bridge for M. Delcasse.”
The correspondence containedvin the
Blue book shows clearly that Great
Britain asserts exclusive rights" and de-
nies that the Marchand expedition has
any political significance.
Lord Salisbury appears to have tak-
en a firm stand in the question and he
makes it clear that no discussion of the
matter is admissable.
The comments in public and in the
newspapers show that the Marquis of
Salisbury’s determined stand has come
as a most agreeable relief and as dis—
posing of all the stories of a possible
compromise. No whisper of dissent is
heard anywhere. .
Both friends and opponents of the
premier are rejaiclng at the fact that,
in furnishing the Blue Book on the F3.-
shoda question he has burned his
bridges behind him.
While it is recognized that the situ-
ation, by this publication, has become
more difficult for France, there is al—
most an entire absence of disposition
anywhere to believe that France pro-
poses to press her claims to the point
of danger.
The Matin, which is directly inspir-
ed by the French foreign office, and
was the foremost in-urging extremist
saying:
“We shall probably not risk a war
with Great Britain for the nominal
sovereignty over territories at an im-
mense distance from our possessions on
the Atlantic. They are as inaccessi-
ble from our coast annexations as the
mountains in the moon. But we can
retain our honor without retaining Fa-
shoda. I—‘rudence should prevent us
from loading ourselves with too much
territory. We must be colonials, but
in moderation.”
The newspapers of Paris take a calm
View of the situation and plead for
moderation. They express a sincere
desire for a friendly settlement of the
question when Major Marchand’s re-
The prevailing view of political men
is that the French cabinet will find a
way out of the difficulty in the report
asked from Major Marchand, who, it
is expected, in response to a hint from
the French foreign office, will dsclar .1
that his position at Fashoda is unto 11-
The publication of such a re-
port it is held would fully justify the
French government in reca 'ling him
Off for the Omaha Fair
Washington. Oct. 11.—The “lashing-
ton official-Aparty, which is to attend
day, going by two separate trains ov: 1‘
the Pennsylvania and Baltimore and
Ohio railroads. Their itineraries are
so arranged that the two parties will
arrive at Chicago and later at Omaha
close together. ,
The presidential party left via the
Pennsylvania road at nine o’clock. The
train was a handsome one of four cars.
including the sleepers Socrates and
Dromio, the dining car Gilsey and the
combination car Brutus.
.From the Baltimore and Ohio sta-
tion the other train left a few minutes
after 8 o‘clock. Aboard of it were
General Miles and other army officers,
the members of the diplomatic corps,
and the representatives of the press.
The train was made up of a combina-
tion car, the sleepers Potosi, Hector
and Kara, a dining car and also a pri-
vate car.
Canton, 0..., Oct. 11.—The train from
Washington bearing the official party
for the Omaha exposition, arrived here
last evening at a. few minutes past
nine o’cloCK. The private" car of Presi-
tached and the train sped on itsvway
westward.
Col. Roosevelt’s Taxes.
New York, Oct. 11.—The motion of
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt to discon-
tinue the certiorari proceeding brought
in his behalf to contest the assessment
on him of a personal tax of 81,005 by
the city authorities, was consented to
by the corporation counsel when the
motion was called by Justice Smyth in
the supreme court this morning. The
payment of the tax and the order of
discontinuance therefore end litigation
over Colonel Roosevelt's liability to pay
taxes as a. resident of this city.
Italy Savus on Her Navy.
‘Rome, Oct. 11.—Owing to Italy’s fi-
nancial straits, the minister of marine.
Admiral .di Canevaro. has renounced
the sweeping naval programme. invol-
ving the expenditure of 640,000,000 lire,
and will be satisfied with a. naval cred-
it this year of 28,000,000 lire. A minis-
terial crisis is thus averted.
It is expected that the budgetfor
the current year will show a deficit of
17,000,000 lire.

WAR INVESTIGATIONPROCEEDINGS.
Conditions at Camp Thomas 'Descibed
by Capt. Culver
I’Vashington, Oct. 11. -—Captain J. H.
Culver of Troop A, of the Third United
States volunteer cavalry (Grigsby’ 5
Rough Riders), was before the war in-
vestigating commission yesterday. He
had been stationed at Camp Thomas,
Chickamauga, from May until he was
mustered out on the eleventh of Sep-
tember. His company had been locat-
ed in the woods, but while the site
was dry, he thought that they would
have been better off in the open. The
food generally was abundant and very
good. At first they only received fresh
meat two or three times a. week, and
for a week the bread was hard, but this
was soon rectified.
On one occasion the meat was taint-
ed, but it Was condemned and exchang-
ed. He stated, however, that the taint—
ed meat was not badly spoiled, and
that he would have been glad enough
to have had it' in the civu war.
Captain Culver mentioned 1 an 1115-
tance when the bacon received was
wormy, and when the command first
arrived there was a shortage of tent-
age, but these defects had been speed—'
ily remedied.
Captain Howell interrupted the pro-
ceedings to inquire the object of the
examination of the witness, to which
ex-Governor Beaverfi who was con-
ducting the examination, replied that
it was to show what the different bu-
reaus of the war department had done
and how they did it, and he thought
the inquiry very pertinent.
To this Mr. Howell responded: “The
proper men from whom to secure this
information are the officers who sup-
plied the equipment.”

Resolutions Favoring Such a. Stop In-
troduced‘in Episcopal Councils
W'ashington, Oct. 11.—There is no
abatement in the public interest at-
tending the triennial council of the
Episcopal church and a. large crowd
joined in the religious service at Epiph-
any church which preceded the busi-
ness of yesterday.
The expanding influence - of the
church was indicated by the memorial
from the Japanese diocese urging the
creation of a southern jurisdiction in
that ecuntry and from the Anglican
church in Honolulu, heretofore foster-
ed by the English 'church,’ asking that
in' view of the annexation of Hawaii
to the United States the church of Ha.-
waii be amalgamated with that in this
country, becoming a missionary juris-
diction. The propositions were refer-
red.
The first evidence of friendiy rivalry
for the honor of holding the next con-
vention developed in a resolution'for
the appointment of a committee of five
deputies to meet with a. committee of
bishops to select the city of the next
meeting.
Among the resolutions presented and
referred was one expressing thanks for
the sym'fiathy of Great Britain toward
this government during the recent Wai
with Spain, and hoping that the time
would come when the two great nations
would stand “shoulder ‘to shoulder and
flag to flag" in the pregress of the
w.or1d
Mn. George Arraigned; " 97’:
CantOn, 0., Oct. 11. el—Mr‘s. Anna‘ E
George, the woman under arrest for the
shooting of Saxton, was arraignedo
the afiidavit. charging murder in the.
first degree, at ten 'o" clock ”yesterday,
for the purpose of fixing a; date for the
preliminary hearing.
It is claimed that the defence will
be an alibi, and that the shots were
fired by a man dressed in the garb of
a woman. '
A great crowd was present in Court
11 hen Mrs. George was brought 111.3111:
looked unconcerned. Soon afterwards
her counsel came in—Messrs. John C.
Welty, Mityor James A. Rice, and Jas. .
A. Sterling.
After reading the affidavit, Mrs.
George’s counsel said that they were
ready for the arraignment.
They asked that the reading of the
affidavit be waived.
Justice Reigner asked Mrs. George
whether she was guilty or not guilty,
and she answered not guilty.
This afternoon was agreed upon for
the preliminary hearing, and Mrs.
George was taken back to jail.
The coroner has resumed the exam-
ination of witnesses and the number
of names on the list indicates that his
examination will not be concluded for
several days.
Views of Oregon’s New Senator
Portland. Ore., Oct. 11.—Senator-
elect Joseph Simon, in an interview
regarding his course on the leading
questions which 'will come before Con.-
gress, said:
“I favor the retention of the entire
Philippine group, and I should not
agree to the ratification of a treaty
that reInits any portion of them to
Spain. I am for government construc-
tion and control of the Nicaragua ca-
nal, and favor a Pacific cable. I am
for a larger standing army and a grea-
ter navy. I am especially anxious for
the firm establishment of the gold
standard and reformation of the cur-
rency. by the retirement of government
paper obligations and creation of a_
banking currency.”
The Strike in Paris.
Paris, Oct. 11.—The strike situation
here, following yesterday's orders by
the government reinforcing the troops
in- the city by about 10,000 men from
towns near the capital, is much calmer.
Only one band of strikers needed dis-
persal, but, as a matter of precaution.
the military pickets were further in-
creased.
Several meetings of worklngmen took
place during the day at the Bourse du
Travail, and resolutions favoring a con-
tinuance of the strike were passed.
The Forty Seventh Sails
Newport, Oct. 11.—The transport
Manitoba, with the Forty—seventh New
York regiment on board, sailed from
here at 4 p. m. yesterday for' Porto
Rico.
A great crowd of Brooklynites were
on hand to view the departure of the
troops and bid them farewell.
Although there were originally thir-
teen hundred men in the regiment, not
more than 1,150 sailed for Porto Rico.
The majority of the others had been
discharged.
" STUMP PENClLs‘ Arie MASCOTS.
tioun About Lead'Sticks. '_
“Talking of hoodoo's and mascots,"
said a member of the stock exchange,
“the boys on the floor of the 9 change
are as suspicious as a lot of sailors.
if you don’t believe it you look at the
lead pencils they are using the next
time you are in the 1311111111".
“You won i find :1 111.111 using a long.
lead pencil. Why? Because a long
pencil is a ‘hoodoo’ of the worst kind.
They always cut a new pencil in half
before they sharpen it. Some of these
pencils acquire the reputaton of being
lucky. '
“Less than a week ago I came down
without my pencil, which, by the way,
is 11 lucky one—every memorandum
made with that pencil results in a
profit for- meéand I borrowed one
from a friend on the floor. He handed
me a stump about an inch long, and
Said: ‘You can use that; it’s a lucky
pencil.’
“Sure enough, I made two deals in
the morning. and each netted me a
handsome profit.
“I was about to make a memoran-
dum of some stock I had bought when
my friend approached and said:
“ ‘Here, take this pencil and let me
have mine again. I’ve lost on every
deal since I loaned it to you.’
“Sure enough, I lost on that.deal
and the luck went back to the owner
of the pencil.
“When you get hold of a lucky pen-
cil you want to hang to it.
“Some of the boys have little lucky
pencils not more than an inch long,
and they guard them as they would
their lives. '
“If you, through carelessness or ac-
cident, cause them to break the lead
point they lose whatever regard they
have for you and forever afterward re-
gard you as inimical. Some of them
wouldn't take $5 for a little piece of
pencil worth considerably less than a
cent.”-—New York Press.
