MANY OLD EMPLOYES DROPPED To Make Room for Advancement of New Men. GEN. DUFFIELD’S STATEMENT ———————— The recent reorganization of the coast and geodetic survey has caused much gos- sip, and several of the changes are severe- ly criticised. Generally, it is assert2d, olé and experienced men have been re- duced and removed to make room for young men of limfted scientific attain- ments. Protests Against Prof, Davidson's Re- moval. It Is openly stated that his age was the cause of the removal of Prof. Geo. David- son, the distinguished head of the geodetic service on the Pacific coast. A determined effort will be made to secure his restora- tion to office. The news that he had been dropped from the roll created a commo- tion among federal officials, shippers, steamboat men, scientists and in many other circles wherever Prof. Davidson has friends or acquaintances. Senators Per- kins, White and Allison have telegraphed protests against his removal. He was ap- pointed the United States delegate to the meeting of the International Geodetic As- sociation held in Paris in 1889. The French cabinet unanimously elected him a member of the bureau of longitude of France. Promotion of Gen. Duffield’s Son. The promotion of W. W. Duffield, son cf the superintendent, from $2,000 to $3,000 is also criticised. 1t is said that he has just arrived at his post, although appointed and drawing his salary since May 1. He succeeded Mr. W. H. Dennis, who had faithfully served in the coast survey for forty years, having entered as a lad and worked his way up, both in field and de- partment work, until he had attained a high degree of skill and efficiency, being often promoted, until dufing the present administration his salary was increased to $3,000. Last July, however, it was reduced to $2,000. The Ist of May he was inform- ed that his services were no longer re- quired, and W. W. Duffield was appointed to the vacancy. Mr. Duffield is now pro- moted to $3,000, and his rapid advance- ment has caused talk. Gen. Duffield’s Statement. Gen. Duffield, superintendent of the coast and geodetic survey, has made the follow- ing statement in regard to the recent changes: “A reduction of the force of the office was made necessary by the fact that the new appropriation for the support cf the office, which goes into effect on the Ist of July next, is much smaller than the ap- propriation of preceding years and totally inadequate for tbe maintenance of the force as at present organized. The change was made in_the appropriation because of the condition” of the treasury at the time the matter was before Congress, and the eut was of such a radical nature that it was found necessary to effect a complete reorganization, and in doing this some men who had been longest in the service were relleved and younger men promoted. “In this, as in any other public service, there are men who remain with it from year to year until they come to be veter- ans, and while I should not want to reflect on individvals, it occariorally becomes nec- essary in the interest of the service to let them out in order to give the newer blood a chance. That has been the pclicy in the reorganization. Old Men Were Dropped. “The older men who were relieved are men who had been in the service a long term of years and whe nad drawn large salaries. The change effccts a considera- ble saving to the government, enables us to promote several worthy men and will, I think, redound to the benefit of the ser- viee, because of the good effect it will,have on the younger men in the bureau. When Mr. Duftield’s attention was drawn to comment on Mr. Davidson's removal, he said that the change made there was made in accordance with the general plan of dis- pensing with the older men. r. David- sen is,” he sald, “a veteran of the veter- ans, and that is our reason for letting him out. Mr. Rogers, who will succeed him, has been engaged in this work for several years, and I «m satisfied will prove thor- oughly efficient.” 2 POINTS FROM CAPE MAY Washingtoninns Who Are Enjoying the Breezes There. Correspondence of The Evening Star. CAPE MAY, June 26, 18%: The season may now be said to have fairly begun. Tuesday the manufacturers of surgical instruments and javalid foods and all sorts of things that ‘may be sup- posed especially to interest doctors were busily arranging their exhibits in the effice, and at 8 o'clock in the evening the Medical Society of New Jersey met in one of the huge parlors and read papers and enjoyed themselves after the manner of their kind. The big excursion of newspaper men and their wives will arrive Friday, and the Stockton will be completely given up to their use. Among those who have engaged réoms here are Col. Wilson, superintendent of public grounds and buildings,. who will bring with him quite a large party, in- cluding, of course, Mrs. and Miss Wilson; Col. McEwen, chief clerk of the Senate; FE. B. Cuthbert and Serena E. Payne. Min- ister Romero and Mrs. Romero have engag- ed room for the season. Another represen- tative of diplomatic circles who is ex- pected early in July is Mr. Patenotre, the French minister, who will, of course, be accompanied by Mrs. Patenotre and the baby. - Mrs. Charles, Carver of Philadelphia has been spending a fortnight at the Star villa on Ocean street. Mrs. Carver {s well known in Weshingtcn, where she has many friends. When visiting the capital she usu- ally stays with Gov. and Mrs. Oates of Al- abama, at ‘hefr home on Q street. Mr. J. Alden Guest, after passing a few weeks here, has returned to Washington. Congress Hall will open Saturday evening with an invitation hop. The painters and paperers and an army of men and women armed with pails, brooms and scrubbing brushes have had possession of the house for some time past. The glorious Fourth is to be celebrated here by the singing of na- tional anthems by three hundred children, who are now being trained by Professor Fithian, and in the evening there will be a big hop. Mrs. K. W. Skiles is at the Windsor. She is here for the benefit of her daughter, Miss H. W. Skiles, who has been quite fli, Lut who seems to be improving in the bracing sea air. Mr. BE. P. Watkins, after spending a few days with them, has returned to Washington. Two little tets were sitting en the sand the other day, when a lady stepped up to the little girl and asked her how she came to Cape May. The little maiden looked up gravely and replied with much dignity: “In the too-too.” ‘But I don’t know what the ‘too-too’ 1s," remarked the lady. “Oh, I do,” said the little boy, with an air of great importance. “She means the’ puff-puff.” —_—>—_ Real Estate Mattern.

People Friendly to United States— Mayy Concession Being Granted to Americans There. Representative Livingston of Georgia, who, as stated in The Star yesterday, has just returned from Venezuela, brought with him important new§ concerning recent events in that country, including a re- bellion in Valencia, which was quickly suppressed by the government and which was not reported outside of the country; also the news that at a recent meeting of the cabinet the English concession for a vast tract of the Orinoca country, including the famous Bahia gold mines and part of the territory claimed py Great Britain, s revoked and a new congpssion granted n American compauy. (fhe latter im- to ke possession to mediately sent its men of the concession, and ,Reprgsentative Liv- ingston expects that {f the, British occu- pants refuse to yield ‘the {merican com- pany will make spi Tepreseniatios to the authorities at Wasbingtup. As a resuit of Col. Livingston's tfip,,hy is convinced that the United States will gdopt a strong policy on the British-Venezuela question, perhaps through the ¢xecytive brancnes this summer, and certainly through Con- gress when it assembles, He said that the Venezuelans are enthusiastic in their love for the United States. "' «* ©" Phe President G# the Mepublie. Col. Livingston was ‘asked concerning President Crespo and the other’ public men of the country. re “The country requires a very strong he said, “and it has found one in Crespo. He came in at the head of a revo~ lution two years ago and he rules with an iron hand. He began as a cowboy, then advanced to a cattle owner and Is now a man of great wealth, owhing property in Brooklyn, N. Y., and in France and Eng- land. The laws are such that he is little short of absolute Gictator. He owns the great sugar refinery of Venezuela, and the tariff on sugar is 16 cents a pound. He recognized the need of constant vigilance against the rebellious element led by glan- co, and in consequence he keeps an ‘Army of 60,000 men ready to be moved at any moment. ‘I was assured that in case of any up- rising an American would be entirely safe, as all parties protected Americans. I be- gan to understand the meaning of this as- surance when the next night a messenger came to me to say that a rebellion had broken out, when I heard, vans moving along the streets, gathering soldiers to con- script for «un uprising.’ A messenger brought me word that an outbreak had oc- curred in the Valercia valiey. The soldiers were hurried forward and the outbreak crushed before it had gained ground. No word of it ever reached this country. It shows the need of a strong government with determined men at the head. Col. Livingston was asked as to the re- sults of his investigation of the British claims. The British Claims. “I found,” said he, “that our past infor- mation has been very meager, and I brought back many maps and documents which I hope will throw light on the sub- ject. The British have made no less than seven lines as their boundary claim. The first four lines were found not to include the gold country and the land commanding the mouth of the Orinoco river. As a re- sult, the British have been pushing their lines further inland until they now claim all the gold fields and the lower Orinoco country. It is beyond question that much of this territory belongs to Venezuela, and in any event, it is only just that the sub- ject should be passed upon by an impartial commission or arbitration, as the United States has suggested.” “But suppose Great Britain declines to arbitrate, What will the United States do?” Congress Will Take Up the Question. “Congress will certainly take up the ques- tion as soon as it reassembles, if, indeed, the executive branch of, the government has not passed on it in a very definite form by that time. -I am not informed as to what answer Great Britain has given to the request of the United States for arbi- tration, but it, is undesstood.that she will arbitrate a patt, but will net arbitrate as to certain territory which she. claims is un- questionably hers. But whg should she hesitate to arbitrate if her title is unques- tionable? Congress willask for all the cor- respondence on the subject, and we will be able to tell what steps’are netessary.: That Congress will act very decisively is beyond the slightest question, for the American people have already reacheg,a conclusion on this subjéct. It sHould be submitted to arbitration, but if thfy dealig with Ven- ezuela is declined, tign it ‘Should go be- fore an impartial forgfgn commission—say one commissioner from-Germany, one from France and one from. Mexico. Certainly one republic should be represented.” Col. Livingston wag again: asked what weuld be the uktimatd result‘if Great Bri- tain rejected all arbigration ‘and commis- sions. 4 a “Then,” said he, “fie United States will protect the interests of its citizens in Ven- ezuela. With the granting of this Ameri- can concession, there {s a definite some- thing which it is the duty of this govern- ment to protect, and I haveno doubt that the responsibility will be assumed by the executive branch and by Cengress, with every requisite to secure a respectful en- forcement of the attitude of the United States.” ———-e-—___ Government Receipts.

It is to be the last race under the ten-year agreement to row over this course, and may be the last for some time to come. ¥f so, the hotelkeepers and liverymen of New London may take some of the blame for that result to themselves. The specta- tors here today re not as numerous as in past years, and the interest is less keen than it has been. Yale is the favorite with bettors. A brother of Yale's stroke of last year—Johnson—ts said to have here a poo! of $15,000, which is to be put on Yale, if possible, at 3 to 1. A Columbia College man is offering 200 to 75 on Yale, though he says he would give $100 to see Harvard win. The steam yacht Dora, belonging to Mr. Ford of Boston, has arrived here for the use of G. H. Rives of Oxford, who will be referee of the race today. In the harbor is a cloud of small sail craft and not a few steam and sail yachts. The race is sched- uled to start at 5 p.m. Shut out from sunlight, filled with drift- ing fog and saturated with a clinging mist, Capt. J. R. Bullard. this place on the morning of the day fixed for the annual contest seemed shut off from all connection with the outside world. Even the old ferryman, the only connect- ing link between Jes Ferry and Mont- ville, the nearest railway station, could not be fourd, and the dripping telegraph wires looked as if no electricity could be in them. The robins, which are usually so plentiful in the ch trees, were absent, and the only sound which came in from the outside world was the occasional puf- fing of sore tug or ‘ocomotive away out in the mist. At 8 o'clock there was but slight appear- ance of change. The rain ceased, but there was every appearance that the let-up was but temporary. Every brook was this morning a river, pouring volumes of muddy water into the Thames. Instead of the familiar dark blue surface, the river took on a yellow color. At the quarters of the rival crews there was not the slightest change in the daily routine, excepting the absence of the hard work that has been the feature of the past days. There will be no more rowing of moment until the race. Instead, the men will be given a thorough coaching and practice in starting. It seems as if nothing can disturb Bob Cock's happy air or Capt. Armstrong's smile. These men seem not a whit bother- ed about the weather. Coach Cook this morning reported the Yale men in good condition, and he and they have all the confidence of the most enthusiastic fol- lowers of the blue in a Yale victory. Then, too, the freshet promises a possible equal- iug of the record of 20.10, and from the standpoint of an oarsman never was a day begun with better promise. Over at Redtop, Harvard's quarters, the illness of Hollister has thrown a shadow over the place. The announcement that Capt. A. Armstrong. Jennings of the freshmen eight has been selected to work his oar has served to re- store confidence among the followers of the crimson, and not one can be found who is rot filled with. the idea that Harvard will render a good account, and that when the boats cross the finish line the crimson will lead the blue. Capt. Bullard was bearing a confident air this morning, and said his crew would enter the race with every expectation of rehdering good account of themselves. The breakfast today was the same as usual—an orange, oat meal, hominy, two Taw eggs, steaks and chops and bread, with cold water. At noon the weather outlook had im- proved, the rain which had been falling since 9:30 having subsided, ané the fog on the river gave way. - Besides Referee George L. Rives of Cam- bridge, the officers of the race are: Judges, Bob Cook, fer Yale, and R. Watriss, for Harvard; time keepers, George Adee, for Yale, and Wm. Brooks, for Harvard.

Charles Williams, the father of Miss Mary Williams, the dressmaker who made such @ desperate attempt to commit suicide by cutting her throat with a razor, as pub- lished in yesterday's Star, remained at the hospital with his daughter most of the day. Although so near death, the patient rallied after Dr. Kilgore dressed the wound and gave her the necessary injections of mor- phine and doses of stimulants, so that when she reached the hospital she was fully aware of the seriousness of her condition. Today the patient was reported as resting comfortably, and it is possible that she will re:over. rows Disurers Mr. C.
