committee and its success in having a
commission of eminent engineers ap
pointed to examine tbe harbors
on the Texas coast This con
vention, be said, is not to say where
the port shall be located, but to secure tbe
co-operation of Congre-s. the source from
which the appropriation must coma The
appointment of a temporary chairman
being next in order. Hon. James Legate,
of Leavenworth, nominated Congressman
Cbailes H. Mansur, of Missouri, who was
unanimously chosen. On taking the chair
Mr. Mansur made a splendid speech
which captured the convention outright
He counseled harmony between the rival
factions representing Galveston, Aran
sas Pass and Sabine Pass and said tbe
peopld of tbe North are not so much
interested in where tbe harbor shall be
locited as that you shall have a harbor.
We, in Missouri, are wedded a!mottoa
man to tho improvement of the Mississippi
river and if we aid you we expect that in
due time you will aid us in our pet project
of improving not only the 'Mississippi but
its tributaries, the Missouri and Kaw. In
approaching Congress let us do it not
with baled breath and bended knee, but
as free men demanding our rights." F.

Topeka, Kan., Oct 4. The deep harbor
convention adjourned at noon yesterday
after a two hours' session, which was the
liveliest of the week. Coitrarv to the
exnectat'ons of many thelVxis delegates
remained harmonious to tbe very las., but
Kansas threw a looib into the convention
which, for a time, threatened to do much
damage. It was removed, however, be
fore tbe fuse had burned down to tie
exploding point, and the convention
finully accomplished satisfactorily the
work cut out for it
There was barely a quorum present when
the gavel fell yesterday morning. Chair
man PJumb had been called away on busi
ness and x-Governor Hubbard, of Texas,
called the convention to order and pre
sided throughout the session. Senator
Armstrong, of the committee on resolu
tions, announced that the committee was
ready to report and read the following
reso. utions, which were signed by all but
two members of the committee:

convention.
Retolcft. That the thanks of this convention
are due to the permanent committee appointed
at the Denver deep harbor convention for their
efficient action in the past and said committee
is hereby requested to continue earnestly in
the work so well begun, and said committee is
instructed to present thse resolutions to the
President of the United States, with the re
quest that he. in his annual message to Con

which may be recommended by the report of
the toard of engineers.

Then S. B. Watts, of Louisiana, se
cured recognition and presented a min

Cline, of Texas, favoring tbe construction
of at least three harbors on tbe gulf coast
west of tbe Atchafalaya bay.
After a loag debate the majority report
was adopted amid great enthusiasm, and
after a resolution of thanks to tbe people
of Topeka tbe convention adjourned.

Minneapolis Flour Output.
Mixxeapolis. Ulnn., Oct. 4. The
Northwestern Miller of Wednesday said: '
"With all except thret. mills in operatioa
and a good deal of steam in use tbe flour '
output naturally reached very heavy
figures last week, notwithstanding the
prevalence of low water. The aggregate
production was 151,300 barrel a averaging
25.21? barrels daily, against 125,200 barrels I
the week before aad 187.100 barrels for the '
corresponding time in 188& This is tbe
largest amount ground in nearlv a year.
Lower wheat has again made the flour
market inactive, though prices are firm.
Host of the mills sold freely when tbe
bulge was on and have enough orders oa
baad to keep them going for some days."
NEW WAR ELEMENTS.
The
Repeatlnc Rifle and Germany's
Smokeless Powder.
Baron Beck, the Chief of Staff of the
Austrian army, had nn opportunity of
noting; a very interesting' novelty at
, the sham fight which the German Era
peror ordered to be held out near
Spantlau in honor of his illustrious
guest, the Emperor of Austria. Tho
troops engaged, constituting a large
portion of the Guard Corps, were
formed into two pretty equal bodies,
whereof one. named the East army,
had advanced from Berlin on purpose
to reduce the fortress and citadel of
Spandau, to which the approach was
defended by a West army. Into the
details of this battle, the most inter
esting of its kind, for several reasons,
which has been fought for long in
Germany, it would be superfluous for
me to go; but there were two main in
cidents that must bo mentioned, be
cause they attracted the special atten
tion of the Emperor Frances Joseph
and his Chief of the Staff.
It had been the aim of the defenders
to outflank the invading corps (which,
by the way, was under the command
of the Emperor's brother-in-law. Ma-
i jor-Gcnernl tho Hereditary Prince of
j Saxe-Meiningen). and for this purposo
it began to mass and deploy a large
force on its right flank. This force, in
beautifully developed order, according
to the latest rules of lire discipline,
had been for some time engaged in
pouring a steady firo into the enemy's
lines, when all of a sudden it was
commanded to face about and meet the
charge of a regiment of Lancers com
ing on like a thunderbolt in extended
array. Nothing could have been
inclosing the advancing lancers in a
murderous parallelogram of front and
enfilading magazine lira It is only in
such emergencies as these that the
troops are allowed to use their rifles
as repeaters, and certainly nothing
could have been more awfully and
suiftly destructive than the mus
ketry volleys with which these rashly
daring horsemen were received, and
But in real war they probably would
not have been half so bold.
Having thus disposed of this dan
ger, the defenders again resumed thcir
flanking advance. Wo could observe
little or no attempt at returning our
rifle fire on the part of the foe. But
this was a delusion. The umpires
soon decided that in spite of the appa
rent success of our brilliant flanking
movement, we must face to the right
about and fall back, and with all the
more alacrity, too. seeing that we our
selves, the outflankcrs, had been most
skillfully outflanked bj a large body
of the enemy, which, creeping through
a wood, threatened to fall upon our
rear. Tho fact of the matter was that
we had been lured to our destruction
by thinking that the invader had lost
heart. w4iereas in this particular part
of the field he had only been firing
with powder which emitted no smoke
and comparatively little sound.
Smokeless powder that was the
latest innovation in the equipment of
the German array which its young
commander had to show to his Impe
rial Austrian ally, and the latter was
charmed with the result Berlin Cor.

Lady of the house "During the
past week you have had three different
policemen visiting you. I don't pro
pose to put up with any such conduct."
New cook "It's not my fault, mum.
The bill of fare in this house is so
poor that no policeman can stand it
more than two days. That's why you
see a fresh one here almost every day."
