Of Alexander, Napoleon said that he was a Greek of the lower empire, and he himself said that he was a “happy accident.” Except that he killed his father, nothing particular can be alleged against him. Then came Nicholas, Alexande brother, an honest, narrow-minded despot. On his death, Alexander II became emperor —a kindly man, utterly unfitted for the position of a ruler. He was assassinate by the nihilists, when his son, the late czar, followed him; and now the late czar's son (If you wish a Long or Short Caj Coat, Muff, Scarf, Boa, ete., see us.

Chief Hazen in His Report Tells of the Important Cases of the Year. Mr. Hazen, chief of the secret service division, has made a report to Secretary Carlisle of the operations of that service during the last fiscal year. The total num- ber of arrests made was 687, of whom 376 were of natives of the United States. Italy, Germany and Ireland, in the order named, were the foreign countries which contrivu- ted the greatest numbers of counterfeiters to this country. The representative vaiue cf altered ard counterfeit notes and imita- tion money captured during the year was $469,357. Chiet Hazen says that the events of the year furnish evidence of great activity amongst counterfeiters. The number of ar- rests largely exceeded thcse of any pre- vious year in the history of the eervice. While ‘the figures show a decrease in the amount of counterfeit notes, Mr. Hazen says it must not Le inferred that counter- feiting paper money is on the decreasesthe fact being that the year was proliic in counterfeits of both notes and coins of the United States. He says that it is im- possible, with the limited amount of funds available, to give the proper attention to violations of the laws against counterfeit- ing, and he, therefore, suggests that the appropriation for the service be increased from $60,000 to $100,000, He also estimates for an additional clerk, at $1,600, “The art of photolithcgraphy,” says Mr. Hazen, in closing his report, “although seemingly in its infancy, has made it com- paratively ecsy to imitate the most skiil- fully engraved designs of cur notes, so that the danger from Wiis source is not only very grave, but increasing; and to meet these conditions the designs and executioa cf government notes should be such as would make their reproduction most difti- cult. One safeguard still remaining, how- ever, is the secret process of making dis- tinctive paper. “Coin -ounterfeiters are more numerous than formerly, and more than the usual number of arrests and capfures of material have been reported. This branch of coun- terfeiting, however, is more serious in its results to the community than that of the making of spurious notes, and muck less difficult of Cetection. No evidence of ad- vancement in the art of manufacturing counterfeit coin has been shown. Of the numerous counterfeits of the silver coins which have appeared during the past year, none can be classed as especially danger- ous. “The figures show a decided increase in the receipt of altered notes during the fis- cal year. The arrests of persons charged with altering and passing notes are large- ly in excess cf any previous year, and is due to the promptness of the agents of this service in thoroughly investigating all ceses reported to them. mong the most importart arrests of this class of operators were M. T. Paulson &t Denver Cclo., on September 16, 1893, and 8. J. Freeland and his wife, Belle, at Chicago, IL November 15, 1893. These People were artists in this line of work, and the community is tu be congratulated that they are now serving terms in prison. “On February 1, 1894, I found the bank- interests deeply concerned over the great number of light-weight gold coins in cir- culation, These coins had been impaired by a new and ingenious method, namely: ‘the milled or corrugated rim of the coin had been removed, decreasing its value about 5 per cent, new milling was then put cn and the coin, to all eppearances, made perfect. I immediately put agents to work, with the result that all cf the guilty per- sons are now serving terms in states prison. One man was arrested in Sioux City, Iowa, cn March 19, 1894, and,. after trial, was sc enced to imprisonment for cighteen montis; another and his wife were subsequently arrested in Baltimore, Md., and sentenced to four years and six months, respectively. In both instances a lathe and compiete set of tools were cap- tured. Since these arrests were made coins lightened in the manner above de- scribed have ceased to appear. In the prosecution of these cases I was greatly surprised to learn that there is no law to punish uttering or passing such lightened cr debaseg coins, knowing them to be such. I therefore earnestly recommend the pass- age of an act making it a felony to mutl- “late United States coins, or to utter, pass, or attempt to pass such coins.” —__+e.__ TO BE SETTLED AT LAST. The Benson Land Surveys in Califor- nia to Be Mude Satisfactory. United States Attorney Garter, at San Francisco, has received instructions to compromise the Benson land cases, which have been pending in the courts for a num- ber of years. Benson, with others, was accused of be- longing to a land .urvey ring, and their work clouded the title to about 3,000,000 acres of land scat ced ell over the state. Benson, through his pvsition as United States surveyor, obtained for his associ- ates contracts for making surveys. The government paid out about $1,000,000 for surveys wh'ch were reported completed, but it was charged were only half done. Commissioner Lamoreux of the general land office rays that these surveys were made in 'S4, 'SS and ‘86. When the matter was first biought to the attention of the government and charges of fraud made Commissioner Sparks procured the bring- ing of suits against the bondsmen and criminal prosecutions against the survey- ors, The cases have been pending in the courts ever since. Finally a proposition submitted by the bondsmen and found to be satisfactory was agreed to. The bonds- men agree that the surveys shall be made in a manner satisfactory to a Jand office agent, and when the surveys are so com- pleted the suits will be dismissed. Commissioner Lamoreux said it was a business proposition, the government get- ting the surveys and the bondsmen having a settlement of the leng-pending suits, SE Ra Tit ER eR 2G West Virginia Democrats Failed to Vote. The official returns of West Virginia for the recent election have been received. The total vote of the state fell off 611. The @emocratic Vote was 9,682 less than in 1892 and the republican vote 8,967 greater.

Among the passengers arriving yesterday at New York by the steamer Rhaetia, from Hamburg, was Dr. Emil Holub, the African explorer. He is accompanied by his wife. Dr. Holub has been invited by the Ameri- can Geographical Society to come to Wash- ington to deliver a series of lectures on his travels in Affta. He made two extensive journeys in Africa, the last one occupying no less than seven years. He is probably the only European who explored that portion of the country, starting from South Africa and going through the heart of the cunti- nent to equatorial Africa. He made an enormous collection of fauna and flora dur- ing his travels, the greater portion of which he has donated to different European cities. He intends donating a large part of his collection to the Smithsonian Institu- tion. +06 Capt. Morrison’s Court-Martial. An order has been received at the head- quarters of the Department of Colorado at Denver, deciding that Theo. W. Morrison of the sixteenth infantry, stationed at Fort Douglas, be tried by court-martial for al- leged insubordination during the railroad strike last summer. The officers at head- quarters refuse to give particulars regard- ing the case, but say that the court-mar- tial was ordered by Assistant Secretary of War Doe against the advice of Gen. Scho- field, who favored the appointment of a re- tiring board to inquire into the conduct of Capt. Morrison, whose sanity, it is said, has been questioned for severai years, _———__—} PEANUTS AND BREAD. Value of the Former Dem: by Miss Johnson, Every night the crowd which attends the pure food exposition at Convention Hall increases in number. The fascination of Pretty booths, pretty girls and hundreds of samples of good things is not to be re~ sisted by the public. The usual monotony and sameness of the average food show has been enlivened’ by several special fea- tures, inaugurated by the management, for the different days of the show. The bread- making contest on Saturday is one of the | Most interesting of these features. Mra. Carlisle, Mrs. Lamont and Mrs. Foster will act as judges in the contest. Each von- testant is to submit a loaf of white flour bread before noon on Saturday. The loaves will be numbered, so that the name of the maker will not be known until after the decision has been rendered by the judges. Miss Johnson lectures this afternoon upon the Thanksgiving dinner, which is parucu- larly appropriate in view of the nearness of Thanksgiving day. Yesterday afternoon, after the usual lec- ture was over, a number of scientific nen, from the different government depart- ments, who have hong been interested in the subject of peanut foods, but who have never made any practical tests, met Miss Johnson for the purpose of witnessing practical demonstrations. The Germans were first to discover the concentrated nourishing properties of this food, und it was first given to hospital patients. Later on peanut foods, in various forms, were adopted for the German army, as it was practicaly demonstrated that soldiers could march farther on peanut foods than on any other. Another point in its favor is that it costs about one-fifth that of other foods of equal staying qualities. Lents were formerly supposed to be the most concen- trated form of food, but practical test showed that peanut meal contains over twice as much nutritious matter. The gen- tlemen who were present were Mr. R. W. Handy, special agent, office of experiment stations, compiler of bulletin on “The Pea- nut and Its Uses;” Mr. Sanborn, assis-ant chemist; Mr. J. F. Tomlinson, assistant curator, Agricultural Museum; Mr. W. A. Taylor, assistant pomologist; Col. C. W. Irish, chief of irrigation office; Mr. Donald McQuaig, chief clerk, Department of Agri- culture; Dr. Chas, W. Dabney, assistant secretary; Dr. H. W. Wiley, chemist of Agricultural Department. ‘This afternoon Miss Johnson will use the Yollowing receipts: Roast Turkey (Copyrighted). Select a fair hen, weighing from ten to fifteen pounds.

Put the remainder of the dressing in the body, sew up the vent and truss the turkey. Lard the breast and legs, or put the surplus fat taken from the inside of the turkey over them.

Information was received at the Navy Department late yesterday afternoon that throws @ new light on the matter of the reception of the officers and crew of the Detroit in Spain, and makes itvappear that the opinion previously passed upon the course of the Spanish authorities was hot well taken. As a matter of fact, the delay in transporting the Columbian relics from Cadiz to Madrid occurred through an error in the orders given Commander Brownson. He was instructed to deliver the relics at Madrid, so that the Spanish goverament was not chargeable with their transporta- tion trom Cadiz to the capital. But no provision or authority was included in the commander's orders to meet the costs of this transportation. He cabled for such authority, and the goods were delayed at Cadiz for a short time, until the response came conferring the necessary authority to defray the expenses of transportation, —————— The Basis of a Sensational Story. A report received at the Navy Depart- ment yesterday afternoon from Capt. Sumner, commanding the Columbia at Kingston, Jamaica, affords a partial ex- planation of the story published originally in a New Hampshire paper on the au- thority of a person calling himself “J. R. ‘bhompson.” ‘That story was to the effect that one sailor of the Columbia had been killed and two others wounded in a street row in Kingston, Capt, Sumner’s report shows that there really had been a row, but that it was of slight importance, and involved onf¥ one man of the Columbia, Peter Donahue by name, who, while drunk, scalp was lacerated, and ‘his assailant was sent to jail for six months. The Kingston papers inclosed in the report speak in the most laudatory terms of the behavior of the Columbia’s men while ashore, and con- c@nn the attack on Donahue as entirely unjustified, o © Trouble With Representative Bryan. from the New York Sun. In the hour of defeat Congressman W. J. Bryan lifts up his voice.—AUanta Con- stitution. This is a queer mistake for an admirer of Mr. Bryan to be guilty of. For six years Mr. Bryan has not been able to lift his voice. His voice.is the better man and ifts him up and has fun with him, now dumping him in the hollow caves of night and now tickling his severe and classic visage with the plume of eagles and the fringe of clouds. Mr. Bryan's voice has him under perfegt control. He obeys the slightest movement, and it gives him, on the whole, more exercise than any other public man in Nebraska gets. From the Boston Journal. A new system of fraud has made its ap- pearance upor the larger denominations of our gold coins, New and,unworn pieces are selected, that they may circulate with less suspicion,and the circumference and weight slightly reduced—to the extent, say, of 75 cents to $l—by turning down’ tne mill- ing upon the edge of the piece and re- milling it. In the absence of scales this fraud can only be detected by comparison with a plece that one is sure has not (hus been tampered with. Several of such coins have been stopped at the Boston subtreas- ury. They were chiefly $20 gold pieces. Naval Orders, Commodore ©. 8.
