There is reason to believe that the United States wtlt have occasion to give another Interpreta tion of the Monroe doctrine, as applica ble to the acqrutetitlon of an Island off tOie coast of Venezuela tow Germany as a naval station. The attention of officials has recently been directed to the inter, ests of Germany in that locality, and there is apprehension t'h&t the subject may assume quite as formidable an as- petit as 'tlhat of the British aggreeelon on Veruezuolan soil. An enormous amount of German capital has' been invested In Venezuela of late, under peculiar' ctr cumsturJces. . The government wanted a railroad through a rich and prodiuotlvt valley and a German syrwiicalte stood reedy to build tihe road on the condition that Venezuela -would guaremltee 7 pet cent on the capital iiwesited. The guar antee was given and tine road built and put into operation about eight montns ago. At ahe outset it was supposed about $4,000,000 would cover It he cost of the road, bu'tj itihe actual outlay reached about $S,000,000. By the terms of the govern momt guarantee, Venezuela now becomes respomedble to the German syndicate for a 7 per ceUt return on this $8,000,000. The road has not been operating tong enough to detenmtme what It will earn, but its most sanguine promotera do not hope that it will pay 7 par cent on the outlay. Whatever It earns wilt be applied oa tine imnestimeinit, and Venezuela will have to give a sufficient amount to bring the earnings up to 7 per cent. ' The circum stances are such as to lead to the be lief that the United Scutes will be called upon to deflne to what -extant the acquisi tion of territory by forlorn powers m South America is compatible with the Monroe dootrlne. COMMANDER IDE DEPOSED. WaElhlntgiton, June 17. Commander Geo.

Commnnder Itte, however, will be relieved Immediately, not being allowed to retain his command until his successor reachts his ship. The reason for this summary acOon Is found In charges preferred by Admiral Meade fhait the commander had ireated htm with disrespect.

A second d cree hae been received from Rome concerning the obligation of Catholics to remain out ride of the Knights of Pyaih.as organi ze In. It tuatee that there appears to p. no further reason why tihe decree of last December should not be made public in all dlodces, and all archbishops and bishops are accordingly dlrtOted to pro mulgate tbe decree without further de lay. When the decree was first issued the head of each diocese was given two montlhs In Which to puW'leh It, or else make known to Rome In writing what special circumstances existed why the publication should be deferred. Most of these heads of dioceses have since pub lished the decree, but as unofflaad Infor mation reached Rome that some of the bishops had not yet acted, this second decree was issued.

Everybody uses eap, excepting the North Anurlcan Indian and a few tramps, but everybody does not know how it Is made. The man who Is old enoush to have memories of the old soap kettle 1n the yack- yard, the wood aah, lye and the barrel of soft soap In the woodefied probably thinks lie known all about it, but he doesn't. The soft soap of our grandmothers is to modern eaaptnak! ng what Franklin's kite and key are to the long distance telephone. There arc two methods of making soap by boiling and by what is known to the trade an the "cold process." Laundry soaps ars made by the former and the toilet soaps 'usually by the latter. If one were to follow a tar of laundry soap from flrnt to last he would new what Is de'K-i Iljtd in the following. There) ere two snap factories in Kansas City. The iargnt has a capacity of about 1.000.0UJ potmdu of snap a month of twenty-firs differ! grades. The tlrth of a of sp U lu Hi kettles In a (bfg room overhung wlh beams and platforms and wltn enor. mous kettles sunk Into the floor, each of which has a capacity of 40,000 pounds of soap. These kettles are seventeen feet deep, coneetvaped, and from ten feet to fourteen feet across the top. In each is colled a steam pipe punched with holes, through which the steam escapes and bolls the fats. Overhead is a platform, on which are arranged a dozen barrels of tallow, and a trough leading Into the bung-holes at the barrels and, as thj tallow melts, it runs -into the kettles. When the barrels become- empty othere take their place until the proper percent age of tallow has been run in. The pro portion of fata put Into a kettle is about 20,000 pounds of tallow, 10 to IS per cent of cotton-seed oil and 6 to 10 per cent of coooanut oil. - The cocoanut oil and 20 to GO per cent of resin afterwards added give the soap Its lattfter. The greater percentage of fats In soaps tihe better the soap. After the fate are In tihe kettte the alkali Is started, the fats (holding about 20 or 16 per. cent. The alkali' is kept running continuously from a tank of caustic soda and water overhead. The moss In the kettle is frequently tested with a Ba urnea scale until the proper percentage of alkali is in solution. Under the action at the alkali and the hot steam pouring Into itihe mass tttie fats begin to boll. An ebullition is produced that keeps changing the chemical con. etltuents of the mass. It bubbles and foams like a huge kettle of coroi.ieal mush, -which It much resembles. This keeps up until eaponilncaitlon ensues. Saponification is the chemical action of alkali on fats, by which the latter are turned Into acids, which, In combination with alkali, produces soaip. when this point is reached from 1,000 to 1,600 pounds of common salt are a axled -to get rid of the excess of -water; the salt making the water heavier, wihfolv sinks through the boiling mass to tihe bottom of the tank. The water, which is really a 'ye, is run into the river or saved to maJte glycerine, the basis of all fata, When the lye has "been separated from the soap from 20 to 26 per cent of fresh alkali is added and the maes started to boiling hard. Then from 20 to 25 per cent ot resin Is shoveled In and the mass boiled under an excess of alkali and finished for that day. In the morning the excess of lye pro duced Is drawn off and craved for glycer ine, and the soap is thinned with water so that it will drop the excessive alkali and impunities to the bottom of the kettle whtch are again drawn off. The mass, which has been treated to from 130 to 150 degrees Fahrenheit, is left in, the ket tle about ten days to cool. It is then soft soap. The bottoms of the kettles are on the floor below. The kettles are then tapped and the soap run Into -a steam Jacket kettle, which, warms it until it is soft eaougb to be pumped to the floor above. On the platform above the kettles Is the soap mixer, known as the crutcher. The soft soap is pumped into the crutch er and is mixed with sal soda In quantity according to grade of the soap. Then, if the soap be a oheap grade, the adulter ants -are added.- The principal of these are silicate of soda, or liquid glass this is made by .dissolving common sand In acids and neutralising It with alkal Other adulterants are starch, which holds In solution talc, clay, silex and other heavy and cheap 'substances according to the maker's various brands. Long continued beating and mlr.ng in th crurcher makes floating soap. The crutch.ng process flni.'hed, the soap runs Into frames and there hard ens. The frames are large daep boxes wuh removable sides and ends. When the soap has hardened eurtlcl ntly per haps In three or four days it la "stripped," that Is the side and end boards are taken off, and a huge cake of soap from 1,200 to 1,400 pounds in weight, ready to be cut into cakes remain. The cake Is wheeled up to the cutt. r, two men grasp a gauge with a wire cutter fastened .n it as deep as tha cake of soap, and a big slab is cut oft. This Is thrown on the platen of the soap cutter, a few revolutions of the whe.l and the platen carries the slab along, , pushing It against wires which cut the soap lengthwise Into pieces the width of a bar of soap. An arm then pushes alter nate layers of bars of soap on open racks, Which are carried away and stored .n a drying room. In dry weather soap will harden 4n twenty-four hours, but in humid weather it takes a week ot more. A dry room fitted with steam pipes facilitate the business of drying when necessary, ' - After the soap is dry enough for wrap ping it is taken to the pressing machine. It .s placed coke by cake in a did and great pressure brought to bear upon It, When lit emerges Its edges are beveled and on the top and bottom Is the name of the maker and the soap In relief. The cakes are then passed to glris, who wrap them in double covers and lay them away in boxes. An average of. 225 boxes a day are pressed and wrapped. About 6,000 boxes of laundry soap are kept in stock. In large airy rooms thousands of pounds of soap are kept drying in racks. If soap is thoroughly dried tt will shrink about one-fourth in weight and size, but add 60 per cent to to its lasting qualities Thts Is generally done with high grade soaps and makes it more valuable. On another floor is the procecs of mak ing toilet' soaps without the aid of kettles or boiling. Cocoanut oil Is placed (n vats, the proper quantities of alkali are added and the maz kept In a state of con. tiniral ebullition with paddles worked by hand, the alkali boiling the fails into acid. Alkali Is added to neutralize the acids and soap fw the result. The soft soap is put Into the crutcher, where sola per fumes and coloring matter are added and the mass run into frames to harden. Mottled soaps are made by floating the coloring matter on top and mixing it by swift movements of a paddle. It is after wards cuts and pressed into' cakes In much the same manner ss laur.dry soap. When the soap comes out of' the forms It is & huge cake with rough and dirty exterdor, but after It has been scraped it is beautifully smooth, white and mot tled. The best toilet soaps are made by What is known as the milting process, the Ingredients being ground. A soap factory is provided with a laboratory 1n which the chemistry of soap malting (s carefully studied and ex perimented with. Here new soaps and wathlng powders are Invented and acid cojnpounds, to rapidly eradicate the dirt from cloth, are discovered, for soap mak ing 1s, after- all, very practical cheat Istry. , The American soap box Is an lrrstftu tloa worthy, of epics.

SOME OF THE WORST SPOTS What the Trouble Is With the Un- ; derplniilng in Most of Oar Thoroughfares.- If It is true thlat no locality Without a con venlent and excellent set of thoroughfares can be honored with the designation of "city," then tt is cenaaln then that our own little part of the Inhabited globe is still very far from any merited approach to the use of that term. For no worse hotch potch of patched up Uiglhwaya and byways exists anywhere' on the Pacific coast than what the residents ot Astoria are compelled to drive, ride or Walk over every day In the year. At each turn the same story Is told and every fifty feet of - road and sidewalk appears to the observer In its true condition a tern porlaatlon with wood and nails. The streets are patched, here, there and every where just as if the carpenters who did the work meant to come back "tomor row" and fix the job better. In several localities, not a hundred yards from the heart of the torm, and often right In the business centres themselves, are pit falls that seem to be waiting a chance to break the leg of a man or a horee. Ruts that coulii easily sink the wide wheel of a big wagon up to the axle abound everywhere, and many thorough fares called by courtesy 'Istreets," but which would be put to shame by the vilest country lane that ever existed, are barred up with a double row of fienolng a for cible object t.BBon teaching of utter mis management on the part of somebody. At the outset it may be necessary to say that the Alstorlan recognizes in Street Superintendent Chledwlck an offi cer who, since h'.s election to office two years ago, has performed his duties effectively and well. He has done his ut. most to better the condition of things, and the fact 'that matters regarding tha streets are In such a chaotic condition show the rottenness of our charter laws and not any culpability chargeable to him. . To start 'with the sidewalks. Most ot them are in that condition of health which people describe, as "bearing up as bravely as possible under the circum stances;" 'the remainder have given up the .fight long ago. and ars tottering to rulA; tunning under the ankle weight of small child -and breaking -into a wreck under, any heavier load. Opposit; th residence of Judge Pigs, a private house .hat would be an ornament to any city, s a long thaky stretch of s.di.malk that liters a good subject for moralizing wer -,.ace riot so valuable. It . a cturinlng ruin, and anybody venturesome enough to walk on It wll be able to feel the invo. effect of maklinr a hundir.d feet of biarJ swing' anyway 'ha p.ea.ii by , his Jivr unaided efforts. It la on.y a coupl of blocks from the hospital, so, If a few legs should happen to be broken by it, Mere are palliating clrcurml ances whicn should not be overlooked. The Fiavei residence, certainly the largest and most costly bu.lding of its kind on the lower river, looks down from every one of It four sides, aoros the road from its fences, on ,ome of the worst sidewalks in the city. AVi along the north side of Bond street, from Chinatown to Four teenth, and running through several busa tress centres,-the sidewalk Is a series of ,'l.f.ilCs and rotten planks. There is not a street In Astoria, from ynlor.Cown to Uderhrook, but, has some of its side, walks in the same dlsrepuub.e state of o.'.apse. And now for the roads. One is apt to .jnjure up a feeling like Tennyson's "divine despair" in trying to g.ve on i.iper some conception of their condition. The worst traveled thoroughfare in the own is one of the most largely used and most important Bond street. Here . 4 road 'that fronts the Occidental hotel, the First National bank, and many of the large.it wholesale and reta.l stores we poasota; cor.'Jemned three years ago by direct Comimiialoner Norberg, condemned two yeans ago by Street Ccmmlssionry Chadirfck, and still alive to work what, ever mischief It can, as if no protest had ever been lodged against the continu ance of its condition. It Is several feet below the proper grade, a mass of rot ten, tumbling and tottering timbers utv Jarneui'h, and altogether presents an- In. terestlng Instance of ponderous misman agement, Duana street from Sixth to Twelfth, along past the Flavel residence and down, is a mass of holets and hills. In several places the planks and their supporting beams are absolutely worn out and altogether past nominal repair. Ex change street, from Seventh, to Twelfth, from the BoeRing residence down to Daln's null, is in even a worse condition. No team dare travel over tt. It Is all below grade, and no two planks are on a level, Half of it is fenced aero em. The other half terminates la a cranky jump-lng-off pClace overtocflclng a bay of tn river, and fifteen feet bellow a bridge that only awaits a favorable wind to send ii .nto demolition. Tenth street between Duane and Exchange has been a series ot gaping holes for yeans and a few weeks ago when it was fenced up the men do ing the work hlad to a'land on the out side of the fence for fear of failing through. The north emi of Fifteenth street, between Graimnttt' grocery store and the Central hotel Is another beauty spot. In case of fire anywhere in the vicinity, not even a man wtth a bucket, let alone a stetum engine, could get near enough to the water without going through the planking. Not half a dozen streets In the whole town that meet one another fre on the same gmde.

I and wrecks any ecmblance of solidity that either etreet eves- potwessed. These aprons themselves are a dlagraceful eye sore, apart from tlve damage they clause to the streets Which they connect. Very few people seem to realize that most of our streets are "htCd up" by undersbructunes which are liable to serious decay. The piling which supports an the principal business thoroughfares after It has been Ire the water for some years, begins to rot from hwfif tide up. The regular dry and wet condition of the timbers brings this about sooner or later. The rot extends up to the drift bolt, through the drift boQt into the pitehead, and then over the whole top cap of the pile Itself. As eoort en the rot affects the cap, the structure begins to shake, from a shake It gets to a constant rattle, tumbling up everything above It until at last the whole thing, covering, pile top and all, goes down into the river a result 'that can bo noted in several places fronting on the old Hume dock. The Whole of the underpinning of Bond street Is now In the tnidvlllo of this process of decay, and, outside of Commercial etreet, there s hardly a thoroughfare that goes, over the water which ia free from it. This mot half of what can be told. There ore localities by the dozen In lus hard a condition ts any that have been pointed out- in this article, but enough has been said to open the way for more later 'on. The remedy twill be talked about at another time. SUMMEOT STYUEa FOR MEN.
