WAsniNCTON, March 5. The presi-
sent today sent in the following noml
nations: Secretary of state, John Sher
man, of Ohio; secretary of the treasury,
Lyir.an J. Gage, of Illinois; secretary
of war, Russell A. Alter, of Michigan;
attorney-general, Joseph McKenna, of
California: postmaster-general, James
A. Gary, of Maryland; secretary of
the navy, John D. Long, of Massachu
setts; secretary of the interior, Cor
nelius N. Bliss, cf New York; secretary
of agriculture, James Wilson, of Iowa.
To compliment Mr. Sherman, his
nomination was immediatly confirmed.
The other nominations were referred
as follows: Gage and Bliss , to the
finance committee; Alger to the com"
mittee on military affairs; .VJcKenna
to the committee on judiciary; Gary to
the committee on postonices and post
roads; Long to the committee on naval
affairs; Wilson to the committee on
agriculture.
The senate without going out of ex
ecutive session took a recess until 2
o'clock.
The first nomination taken up when
the senate reconvened at 2 o'clock was
that of Gage. This nomination caused
considerable discussion, the silver men
taking occasion to point out the posi"
tion Gage occupies on the financial
question. The silver senators said i
they did not intend to interpose any
objection to the confirmation, but
wanted to make it plain that while
there were p'edges ma1. e by the new
administration for bimetalism, the new
secretary was a gold man. The other
nomination were confirmed without de
bate.
Senator Teller, silver republican,
made the principal speech. - After the
discussion of the nomination of Gage,
he took up that of Bliss to be secretary
of the interior. He said he considered
this a most unfortuuate selection. Bliss
was an estimable man, who would have
filled other positions with credit, but
was entirely unfitted for the secretary
ship of the interior, a position of vast
importance. . More cases were decided
involving property rights in the sec
retary of the interior's office than were
decided by the United States supreme
court. They were for the most part
legal questions and required a knowl
edge of law. Bliss was not a lawyer,
but a banker and a business man, who
knew nothing of the many qupstions
which were to come before him as sec
retary of the interior.

WAR SEEKS INEVITABLE.
Greece is Folly Resolved to Defy the
Powers.
Athens, March 5. A statement
made by King George in an interview
today is probably a forecap t of the re
ply Greece will make to the identical
note of the powers, insisting upon the
withdrawal of the Greek fleet and
troops from Crete within six days from
noon of Monday last. His majesty
said:
"The Greek nation is unable to bear
any longer the strain and excitement
caused by the constant Cretan revolu
tions and our finances will not permit
us to support the refugees who now
number about 17,000.Nothing will pros
per ia Greece until the question is
definitely settled.
"Autonomy of Crete is out of the
question, because the Cretans reject it
and have lost faith in the promises of
the powers. They prefer to die in
their own defense rather than to be
slaughtered like Armenians.
"The racall of the Greek troops from
Grete would mean a signal for new
massacres on a large scale, owing to
the fierce fanaticism of the Mussul
mans, whe see they have the support
of the six great powers, since the latter
covered the Turkish attack on the
Christians and shelled the victorious
Cretans fighting for freedom and the
cross, and at the moment when the
Turks were compelled to retire."
Premier Delyannis, in an interview,
is reported to have reiterated that the
Greek troops would not be-withdrawn
from Crete, and expressed the fear that
the national clamor would compel the
I governmen
he is quoted
ted the scheme
proposed by the powe
asked that' a plebescite
be taken, and added that
prefer to disappear fr
rather than withdraw her
fo?
Frete in the face of threats.

ABOUT TO FALL.
The ppanish
Government
Legs.
Is on Its Last
Madrid, March C (Copyright, 1897,
by the Associated Press.) A very
troubled condition of afTu.irs prevails
in Spain. The most acute distress is
being experienced, the Carlists are
showing unmistakable signs of activity,
there is further alarming news from
the Philippines and the government
is disgusted with the performances of
General Weyler in Cuba, but dares not
recall him.
In this connection, a startling ex
planaticn of the inaction of the gov
ernment is hinted at. According to
the rumors circulating here, the
reasons why Weyler is not recalled
are, first, because ho is a pronounced
republican: second, because it is in
timated that sooner than return to
Spain in disgrace, he would proclaim a
republic in Havana.
The distress is most severe in the
Biscayan provinces. The people of
Leon are on the verge of starvation,
the crops having been practically des
troyed by the recent floods which fol
lowed the previous severe drought,
while on all sides flocks and herds are
dying of famine and disease.
Coupled with the distress, rumors of
strength in the Carlist movement in
the northern and central parts of Spain
cuuses the greatest anxiety. The pre
tender is assuming a patriotic attitude.
however, in view ot the colonial
troubles, which mny win him sympathy,
and may be of material use to him
when bis advisers direct that the
moment has arrived for him to make
another attempt to reach the throne
of Spain.

CONFIDENCE IS KETCRJUNG.
Fears That Greece May Precipitate a Con
flict Have Vanished.
London, March 8. It is reiterated
here that a complete agreement exists
between the powers as to an effective
measure to be Immediately taken
against Greece in the event of ber de
clining to comply with the demands of
the powers in the withdrawal of the
Greek troops from Crete and recall of
the Greek fleet in Cretan waters.
The Princess of Wales feels great
anxiety regarding the position of her
brother, King George, and Instead of
returning to Sandringham, is remain
ing in London.
It is learned on good authority that
the Greek reply to the identical note
of the powers will offer to withdraw the
Greek fleet from Cretan water. While
pointing oat that it is impossible to
withdraw the Greek troops from Crete,
it will offer to place them under the
control of the powers to restore order.
Finally the reply will suggest that the
Cretans be allowed to choose their own
government.
It is surprising what a "wee bit of a
thing" can accomplish. Sick head

The Strike is on.
Chicago, March 8. About 20T0
plasterers and bodcarriers struck this
morning and work. on practically every
building in course of construction has
been brought to a standstill. The
only important exception in the down
town district is the new Illinois Trust
& Savings bank, where 200 men are
working, the contractor having agreed
to sustain the old rate of wages. Be
fore noon several other contractors
were reported to have signified their
willingness to agree to the terms of the
strikers.
Chairman Herman Lilian said the
strike board decided to treat every job
separately, and the possibility of call
ing a sympathetic strike of the 21
other trades attached to the Trades
Building Union was remote.

Athens, March 7. (Copyright, 1897,
by the Associated Press.) The situa
tion of affairs here, as this dispatch is
sent (11 A. m.) remains grave, although
there are a few signs here and there
since yesterday that pacific solution of
the Cretan crisis is yet pos9iole. This
is more particularly so in the gaso of
Greece. It is believed the govern
ment is sincere in not desiring to start
any conflagration which may spread far
and wide. The gravity of the situa
tion is recognized on all sides, and all
those interested seem willing to arrive
at the peaceful settlement of the diffi
culties if possible.
Greece is displaying undiminished
firmness in her intention to Carry out
at all cost the programme which she
has mapped out for herself in regard to
Crete, while at the same time support
ing the pacific intentions of her ad
visors. It is stated that Prince Maurocordato
the Greek minister at Constantinople,
has addressed a note to the Turkish
government proposing to recall the
Greek troops from the frontier of Ma
cedonia and Albania if the Turkish
troops near the Greek frontier are sim
ultaneously withdrawn. The porte,
however, has not shown any haste to
accede to this proposition.
lhe answer of Greece to the identi
cal notes of the powers was discussed
at a meeting of the cabinet and ap
proved by king George today. It is
understood that the reply is a refusal
to withdraw the Greek fleet and troops
from Crete, on the ground that the re
call would be a signal lor pillage, in
cendiarism and murder. The complete
text of the cote will not be known un
til it is presented to the ambassdors
of the powers tomorrow.
In diplomatic circles it is said that
the Greek answer may lead to nego
tiations based upon a proposal for co
operation which has been presented
by France.
It is stated that, in view of contem
plated negative reply of Greece to the
powers, King George has sent orders
to Colonel Vassos, commanding the
Greek forces in Crete, to hold all the
places now occupied by him.
The king is still here, and the date
of departure of the crown prince for
the frontier has not been fixed. Every
effort is being made to concentrate the
Greek troops on the Turkish frontier
before the threatened blockade of the
Greek coast can be effected.
THE' KXTKA SESSION.
First Proclamation Issued by .President
MeKinley.
Washington, March 6. President
MeKinley this afternoon issued aproc
clamatlon convoking congress in extra
session on Monday, March 15. The
proclamation .in full is as follows:
'By the President of the United
States of America A Proclamation:
"Whereas, Public interests require
that the congress of the United States
should be convened in extra session at
12 o'clock, on the 15th day of March,
1897, to receive such communication as
may be made by the executive:
'Now, therefore, I. William MeKin
ley, president of the United States of
America, do hereby proclaim and de-
cl.tre that an extraordinary occasion
requires the congress of the United
States to convene in extra session at
the capitol in the city of Washington,
on the 15th day of .March," 1897, at 12
o'clock, noon, of which all persons who
8b all at that time be entitled to act as
members thereof are hereby required
to take notice. -
'Given under my hand and seal of
the United States, in Washington, the
6th day of March, in the year of our
Lord one thousand eight hundred and
ninety-seven, and of the independence
of the United States the one hundred
and twenty-first.

"By the president: John Shermaa,
Secretary of State."
TO EXPERT THE BOOKS.
Clackamas County's Accounts to be Given
Careful Overhauling.
Oregon City, March 6. The county
court today agreed to employ Scott
Bozorth and W. I. Staley, of Salem, to
expert the affairs of the offices of sher
iff and treasurer back to July 1, 1893.
They are to work under the direction
of the court, and may be discharged at
the end of 30 days, if the court so de
sires, regardless of whether the work
is completed or not. They are to re
ceive $5 a day for the time occupied.
Necessity for having the accounts of
the two offices overhauled is shown by
the confusion existing in the funds of
the various school districts of the
county. Some districts have received
considerably less than the amount due
them, and the delinquent tax rolls do
not account for the deficiency. Itia
also alleged that some districts have
received money they were not entitled
to. The treasurer has on hand about
$000 of school money that Is not assign
able to any particular district. The
error that has resulted in " this
confusion cannot be located without a
careful examination of the books, and
the examination authorized is to go
back to the time when the school districts-
ceased collecting their own
funds, and turned the whole matter
over to the county. The work is ex
pected to begin March 15.

''.UPiORING THE .GREAT PETER.

i id Out Ills Little Joke.
' " It seems that the czar, who has de
crmined on retaining his incognito in
raveling through Europe, absolutely
.cclined to tako up his quarters at the
oval palace at Stuttgart, but insisted
in oing to an inn. Having learned of
.his prior to his arrival, says the New
York Home Journal, the YVurtemberg
-overeign caused all the hotel and inn
:ecpers to remove their signs. Over
he principal doorway of his palace he
iad a huge sign hung ont stating that
vitiiin there was cheer for man and
rjcast at cheap prices, and that the
name of the hotel was the Konigsbau
On the ezar's carriage and retinue en
tering the city the postilions, previous
ly instructed by the Wurtemburg offi
2als, drove straight to the palace, and
there, standing at the main entrance,
was the sovereign, fat, burly and
jovial, arrayed in the traditional cos
tume of a boniface, with a white apron
tad cap, etc., while the various prin
cesses, princes, nobles and dignitaries
jt his court were costumed as waiters
and witresscs, ostlers and other serv
ants. Peter the Great, greatly amused
by this witty and kindly manner of
humoring his wishes, entered thorough
ly into the spirit of the joke, which
-as kept up until the following day,
vhen he-.-proceeded on his journey
Noticing that the postilion mounted on
the wheeler of his traveling carriage
wa3 a roan of singularly unkempt ap
pearance, his clothes ragged and cov
ered with mud, he made a remark to
one of his attendants that there was at
least no mistake as to the social condi
tion of that man, and that there could
be no danger of his being a nobleman
in disguise. And yet, when at the end
of the first stage, the postilion came to
the carriage door to receive his gratuity
and raised the cap from his head, the
czar to his astonishment recognized
in him the heir to the Wurtemberg
throne, who had assumed this disguise
for the purpose of speeding his father's

many ghastly features In oouu
with these comns and the
blasphemous talk of the enterprising
agent, this city has proved to be a
lucrative field - for him to work, and
now a number of citizens are equipped
with the strangest burial appliance of
the decade. The description of the
coffin, as given by the agent, is as fol
lows: "Primarily the coffin is fire and burglar-proof.
The case is made out of
boiler iron hardened with old bone,
spruce bark and leather, which forms
an enamel that cannot be penetrated
by chisel or drill. It is put together
with angle iron and flush rivets. The
locks are all on the inside, so con
structed with hooks and staples with a
spring behind them that when a pin is
drawn out from the outside the bolts
spring down and lock automatically
and the coffin is then locked so that it
cannot be opened from the outside.
The only person who can unlock the
strange coffin is the person inside."
There are two grades of coffins
those for vaults and those to be in
terred in graves. The coffin to be
placed in a vault is equipped with tor
pedoes that can be exploded from the
inside. The theory of this is that in
case a person is buried alive he can
throw back the bolts, explode the tor
pedoes and warn the sexton, and thus
escape. The coffin to be placed in a
grave has attached a strong spring and
arm. In case the person inside finds
that he wishes to get out, all he has to
do is to throw back the spring, and this
arm is thereby released and cuts its
way to the top,' exploding a torpedo
and warning the keeper of the grave
yard. 1
These coffins are sold at so much per
pound, and the first purchaser does
not have to pay anything down. He
simply gives a written guarantee to
the manufacturer that he will pay for
the coffin from his estate within fifteen
days after death, or, failing to do this,
the manufacturer can claim his body
to do what he may wish with it. The
coffins were originally invented at
Ypsilanti, Mich., and the. invention was
due to necessity. At the time that the
company gained its inception Ypsilanti
and Ann Arbor and other Michigan
towns were being overrun with grave
robbers. It was to counteract the ef
fects of this that the coffins were made. '
The scare had become so bad there
that the people had got in the habit of
placing a body in a receiving vault
guarded by an armed sentry. Then it
was this company be (ran operations-
