GAESHAM NOT TO RESIGN. Positive Denial of a Report:of the Secretary’s Retire- ment. Although - 'in Bad Health- ‘He Will Complete His Term in the Cabinet. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 2.—A'vig- orous -derial ‘is made in administration circles of the story that Secretary Gresham: is about to resign. The - Secretary: himself will not be‘intérviewed, not caring te dig- nify the report by a denial.. It is a fact that the Secretary has been: inill'health for some time, and the recent attackof neuralgia of the stomach. left him much debilitated.” ‘He nas been unable to secure rest in Washington, owing to the frequency with whicn delicate ~and. embarrassing diplomatic questions have - been _forced upon him, and it is probable ‘he. will yield to the soli¢itations” of his family. and friends so.far as to take a shert leave of absence and.go to his home in Indiana, and -perhaps -stop for a short ‘time .in Chicago. Later in the day it was possible to secure a most positive denial ‘of the story ‘that Secretary Gresham intends to resign, the authority- being a Cabinet: officer, whose relations with the Secretary -are of such & nature as to-make him perfectly competent to make this denial. It isalsc léarned that Secretary Gresham has just made arrange- ment forthe extension of ‘another year of his lease of his' rooms at the Arlington, now occupied by him, which may certainly be taken as an evidence of his mtentmn to remain in Washington. ol AR ' UNCLE SAM’S FINANCES.

Defeat of a Plan in Jamaica to Discrim- inate Against This Country. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 2—0. 0. Eckford, United States Consulat Kings- ton, Jamaica, has notified the State De- partment of the defeat by the Legislative Council of the island of a bill designed to increase materially the customs duties on many articles imported from the United States. In a message to the Legislative Council the Governor had suggested that the with- drawal of the United States from the re- ciprocity treaty, made in pursuance of the McKinley law, left the island free to re- store to its tariff some of the sources of revenue abandoned under that arrange- ment. The colonial secretary then intro- duced, on March 13, a bill in line with the Governor's message, and it is this bill that has been defeated. Consul Eckford says he thinks it improbable thata like measure will be brought up again this season. S S NOT AN HONORABLE DISCHARGE. An’ Interesting Ruling Relating to a Pension Claim. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 2.—Assist- ant Secretary Reynolds of the Interior De- partment has affirmed the decision of the ioner of Pensions in ‘the case of ‘Angeline Coney, widow of John G. Coney. The application was made under the act of December 21, 1890, which provided for- the pensioning of an officer or an enlisted man who had served ninety days in the army or navy and was honorably discharged. Coney served as an éngineer on a vessel in the Mississippi marine brigade. The Assist ant Secretary holds: that a discharge by the commissioner-general of the brigade does not constifute an honorable discharge as contemplated in the sct. ‘SEVEN NEW SUB-STATIONS, San Francisco’s Postal Facili- ties Are Greatly In- creased. o Many New Money=Order Offices Are Also Established on the Coast.

SEADS MANY LETTERS Arrest of a Youth Who Caused a Peck of Trouble. NOT COUNT VON KOTZ The Imperial Family Worried by the Anonymous Com= munications. GOSSIP FOR THE THOUSANDS. Members of ‘the Highest German Aristocracy Are Worried for Years. JALTONA, Prussia, April 2.—A - youth ‘who was about to join the army has been arrested.on the charge of having been the author of the series of anonymous'com- promising’ letters addressed .. to various members of - the imperial family during recent years.. The -arrest of this young man brings to-mind the Von Kotz scandal, which furnished -gossip for thousands of tongues. Count von Kotz -was the royal court chamberlain, and the scandal in which he was the - principal figure shook Berlin society to its foundation. His arrest in June, 1894, was the result of four years of police investigation. Dur- ing ‘that period members of the highest German aristocracy were in ‘receipt of anonymous letters and postal cards, mak- ing vile personal accusations against them, their . relatives or .friends. ‘In‘ a - num- ber of cases. irreparable wrong was-done. Some of -the recinients of the slanderons missives. placed them in. the handsof the police and as a result Count von ‘Kotz was arrested. He protested his' innacence, ‘although the proof against him was seemingly over- whelming. After his arrest it was thought that the era of the anonymeus letters had been brought to a close. It was not, however, and letters making all sorts of outrageous charges continued fo be received ‘as before. -These last-men- tioned letters wereinthe same handwriting as the previous ones, and further inquiries resulted ‘in Von Kotz's innocence being | legally established, and on March 1 Jast he was acquitted of all the charges by a mili- tary tribunal.

NEW WHATCOM, Wasi., April 2—The steamer Buckeye, plying between this city and’ Friday Harbor, capsized in Belling- bam Bay, south.of Eliza Island, at3o’clock this‘afternoon, and it is probable that four lives were Iost.

Both men went m-xde, and Jordan demanded a denial of Baithrop, saying, “If you do not deny this I am prepared.” Balthrop denied having slandered Jor- dan’s wife, and said he had written a state- ment that would appear in the evening paper. The matter seemed to have been settled, when one of the men said some- thing which was not heard or understood by any of the witnesses, and Balthrop struck at Jordan, who began to back out of the door, striking as' he went. Neither of the men hit the other. The striking was designated by the witnesses as ‘“‘clawing” ateach other. Balthrop remained in the alcove outside the door, “standing as if he was held up,” Witness Arrants said. Jordan, when he reached the sidewalk, drew his revolver, a 44-caliber ‘weapon a {oot long, from his belt in front, aimed de- liberately and fired. Balthrop made no | motion until the shot was fired, when he reached for his revolver and drew it as he walked into the store. He took five or six steps, turned and fell. Jordan and his wife have had trouble for several years past and have been living apart for six months. Since his arrest for murder they have become reconciled.

Arrest of a Stableman for the Alleged Firing of a Building. Sequel to a Peculiar Transaction in the Transfer of a Livery Business. HEALDSBURG, Car., April 2—A fire. was discovered in the two-story frame building in the rear of the Sotoyome stable, on West and North streets.

Neely had sold his stable to Clyn:a some time ago in a pecu- liar way and when Neely sought to take charge of the property again Clyma had him arrested for stealing horses. Neely finally got possession of the property again, and since that time Clyma has threatened to break him up in business. Neely says he can prove that Clyma set the building on tire‘in the hope that his livery- .| stable would be destroyed.
