Wsshicgton, May 15 — It is probable
that the likeness of John Paul Jones,
of deathless fame in the ancsla ol naval
warfare, w ill appear upon one of the
uext series ol United States postage
stamps.
A naval officer recently called atten
tion to the fact that the United States
navy, whose achievements present an
unbroken line ol victories, has had but
scant recognition at the bands of the
postoffice department so far as honoring
eminent naval officers of the United
States upon our postal issues is con
cerned.
The naval officer is correct. Up to
1U02 only one representative of the
navy bad ever been recognized for a
place upon a United States postage
stamp— Commodore Perry of Lake Erie
lame— and his position was so obscure
that not one person in 10,000 ever saw
his likeness upon a stamp. Perry was
in 1870 assigned to the 90-cent stamp
and there he remained until 1902,
when, instead of making a new place
for Admiral Farragut, who was voted
into the charmed postal circle, the
postoffice authorities retired Perry and
Faragut took his place.
The new aeries of stamps for the
Philippines, now in process of printing
in Washington, depicts Admiral Samp
son on the 10-centavo (8 cents) stamp,
hut upon United States stamps until
1902 Perry reigned supreme.
On the other hand the army has re
ceived numerous honors from the au
thorities who determine what faces
shall adorn our postage Btainpe. Be
ginning with General Washington, the
list includes General Winfield Scott,
General Zachary Taylor, General Gar
field, General Grant, General Sherman,
General Harrison, Major McKinley

C hief Dinan Prescribes Hard Work
and Plenty o f It.
Ban Franciico, May 14.— A novel
method of itamping out tbe evil of
looting, which has been on the iucre
deepite the item measures taken by the
civil end m ilitary authoritiea, has been
inaugurated by Chief of Police Dinan.
That official baa iaeued an order that
whenever a looter ia caught he ia to be
put in a squad under tbe command of
Detective Sergeant Cbarlee F . Taylor.
Members of tbe squad are compelled to
labor at clearing away the debris. A l
ready 8ergeant Taylor has 75 men un
der him, and the number is constantly
growing. The taskmaster of this chain
gang is given discretionary powers aa. to
the term each of tbe members shall
serve.
Already the streets about Portsmouth
8quare and tbs. Hall of Justice are be
ginning to assume their old-time ap
pearance of cleaniinees, tbe reauit of
tbe work of the captured looters. Chief
Dinan believes that, when tbe exist
ence of Sergeant Taylorv’s army be
comes generally known, looting will
greatly decrease.
The liquor question was agsin dis
cussed today by tbe authorities, and it
lias been proposed that the charter of
tbe city be amended so that tbe license,
which has heretofore been $100, be
raiaed to $600. Before the fire there
were 4,000 saloons in thiB city, and it
is believed that the increased license
will reduce thig number to 1,000, with
out in any way diminishing the reve
nues of tbe city.
A proclamation has been issued by
Mayor Schmitz directing that all refug
ees be concentrated in two great camps,
one to be located in tbe Potrero, in the
south bide of the city, aud the other at
Golden Gate Park.
This action haB
been made necessary for sanitary rea
sons, sb military discipline must pre
vail in these tented cities, if the health
of the inmates is to be preserved. At
present every square in tbe city and
many vacant lots are covered with the
tents of refugees.
The m ilitary are
now ordering these people to the cen
tral camps.

San Francisco, May 15.— The cold,
disagreeable rain wh'ch fell all this af
ternoon created much misery among
the refugee camps and even caused con
siderable annoyance to householders
who were cooking in the street. Though
it ie the middle of May and rain is un
usual at this period, the ashes whirh
drifted into the sky during the three
days of tbe conflagration are believed to
have concentrated sufficient moisture to
cause many drizzles for some time to
come.

Elact or Russian People Assemble In
Open Session.
8t. Petersburg, May 11.— Without a
single hitch and with only a minor in
cident to mar the memorable day, the
Ruaaian parliament was inaugurated
yesterday. The emperor’s message in
reality was lass a throne speech than a
greeting, and required only three min
utes for its delivery. Emperor Nicho
las read slowly. The admirable and
even cordial tone of the sovereign in re
newing his pledges and asking the co
operation of parliament for the regen
eration of the country was only nega
tively satisfactory.
Conrtiers and spectators other than
members of tbe national parliament led
tbe cheering, but the members were
ominously silent.
What rankled moat
was the failure of tbe emperor to meh-
tion amnesty, and later, when tbe
members assembled in tbe Tauride pal
ace, away from the spell of the throne
room, many of them were with diffi
culty restrained from
precipitating
matters by offering resolutions on the
■abject. The Constitutional Democra
tic leaders, however, who dominated
everything, were anxious not to weaken
the reply which the lower bouse will
prepare to the speech from the throne,
in which issues with tbe crown wilt be
joined, and succeeded in staving off
prematare action.
By tbe irony of fate, Ivan Petrunke-
vitch, whose first mention of the word
constitution 12 years ago was dismissed
by Emperor Nicholas I I as “ a foolish
dream,” today stood in the front rank
of the members of tbe representative
chamber, while Emperor Nicholas put
his official seal upon tbe Russian par
liament.
