Dr. Hubbell, the American Presented to King Humbert. Miss Clara Barton has received an exceed- | ingly interesting letter from Dr. J. B. Hubbell, | general field agent of the National Red Cross of America and the governmental delegate to the | international conference at Rome. The letter | deseribes smong other things the dinner given to the members of the conference by the king and queen. Dr. Hubbell writes: “On being presented to the king the queen most beautifully acted as interpreter, for the king does not speak English, while the queen, like the Grand Duchess of Baden, speaks several languages well. The king said I was the first representative from the United States that had been presented since the adjustment of the re- cent diplomatic question between the govern- ments. He was pleased to know that the fing of Italy is prized by the red cross, and is always that of the queen afterward explained to the king, and how it wouid be received in Russia, not as from A SHARP REPLY. Seeretary Foster's Letter to Senator Chan- dler and Representative Stump. Senator Chandler and Representative Stump, who are conducting the Ellis Inland investiga tion on the part of the Senate and House immi- gration committees, received a very sharp reply from Secretary Foster to the letter written by them to the Secretary on the 224 concerning the construction of buildings at Ellis Island. Mr. Foster says: “I dave received and read your communication of April 22 relating mainly to the opinion of the Attorney General, in which he affirms the legal ‘authority of the Treasury Department to use a portion of the head money for the construction and equipment of an immi- grant landing station on Ellis Island. “While both the substance and spirit of your letter are occasion for profound surprise, a rea sonable regard for those proprieties which usu- ally characterize correspondence on public questions between officials representing differ- ent branches of the government will ¢ me against any temptation to adopt a similar tone and thereby to double the occasion for as- tonishment and regret. “Your letter appears to express disapproval of an official act of that officer In giving’ to me his construction of a statute that Iam called upon to administer; and yet you do not seem to dis- but the people of America. Their appreciation and gracious satisfaction was something pleasant to witness.” ssvbethccom ‘Two Slight Fires. Last evening the fire in the smoke house of G. L. Botech, 1314 22d street northwest, got loose. It was extinguished by members of truck B without tarning in an alarm. The loss was about $50.

It was extinguished by a neighbor, Joseph Suddler, of 206, who was badly burned about the hands in his efforts to subdue the flames. The loss was about $200. — ‘The Season at River View.

Doubtless the Attorney General will make appropriate re- ply without the intervention or solicitation of the head of the Treasury Department. ; “You further say: ‘We also desire hie opi and yeur own (mine) not only as to the techni- cal meaning of the clause in the act of March 8, 1891, but,’ &c. You will no doubt excuse me if I modestly decline to give you such opinion. Tam not a lawyer, and hence it would seem to be indelicate for me to intrude my opinion of the technical meaning, &c., of the statute re- ferred to. “You ask my opinion ‘also in a larger sense whether the actions of the Treasury Department from first to last in connection with the Ellis Island improvement has shown a wise and com- petent administration of public affuire, which inion we shall take pleasure in submitting to the committee.’ t must be known to you that very much of what has been done in connection with the Ellis Island im- provement was ineugurated prior to my be- coming Secretary of the Treasury; that all that has been done since has been done under immediate supervision of the supervising archi- tect and an efficient and trusted officer of the Treasury Department, Assistant Secretary Net- tleton. “Iam not familiar with all of the details of the various improvements made on Ellis Island, and in connection with the ad- ministration of the immigration business and procuring facilities for doing this business, and I cannot state ‘whether from first to last’ each and every detail wouhi have been approved by me; but I can state, as you well know, that ina ‘larger sense’ I am, as Secretary of the ‘Treasury, responsible for what has been done; that in the main I believe it to have been well_and wisely done, and that this work will remain as an evidence of the wisdom and humanity of this government long after the criticism that has assailed it has passed from the public mind.” Saae ee, DANGLING FROM A WIRE. The Ghastly Joke Played by Some Medical Students. A telegraph wire at the corner of 15th and H streets bore ghastly fruit this morning. The early risers in that neighborhood beheld an odd- looking human figure suspended from the wire. It was arrayed in a gossamer. It was at first thought by some to be an effigy. It was, however, soon discovered that it was a human figure and there was considerable ex- citement in the neighborhood. A crowd of people gathered on the street beneath the dangling figure. Policeman Oriana had the figure taken down and taken in a wagon to the first precinct station. ‘The figure proved to be the partly mummified remains of a woman. It had evidently been at one time the tenant of a dissecting table, and had been put through some process. To the bones were still clinging dried membranes, mus- cles and tendons. It was blackened and alto- gether a hideous-looking object, resembling very much an unwrapped mummy. The pres- ence of the figure on the telegraph wire was accounted for by the fact that a number of medical students had been ona lark. It is sup- that they hoisted the figure to its place, and either were unable to get it again or were willing to sacrifice possession of it in order to create a sensation. Over the top of the skull, which had been cut open, was tied a black cloth like « hood.ang he figure, as stated, el was draped in an old gi g At the police station the skeleton was de- posited in the sitting room, and it soon became & most interesting-looking object under the hands of Lieut, Amiss and Sergt. Montgomery. It was adorned with a policeman’s helmet, collar and necktie and a pair of kid gloves. A policeman’s club was put in its hands and Sergt. Shilling’s cob pipe was thrust between its teeth. To persons who called the figure was presentedas a new member of the force. Later in the day the skeleton was turned over to the health authorities. eigen Georgetown University’s Entries.
