United States Consul Chancellor at Havre has submitted to the State Department an exhaustive report on food preparation and distribution. He says the recent alleged scarcity of meat In the United States, together with a very general suspicion of all American food supplies, have co-operated to bring before the mind of the people of Europe the necessity of looking to home production for supplies; and much has already been done to consolidate and increase this disposition by interdicting the Importation of American cattle and by attempting to supply any deficiency by substituting horde flesh or by such means as political economists have endeavored to demonstrate as practical under the following propositions: First, that an abundant supply of home grown meats and foods can be obtained at low prices; second, that they are capable of beng rrepared for consumption so as to yield much better results than have been hitherto obtained; third, that they can be effectively cooked in a much more economical manner than heretofore; fourth, that they may te distributed so as to be promptly delivered in any and every direction to satisfy the wide and varied requirements of every class 'of consumers. It U said that statistics show that all the food required by the people of Franco can be produced in that country and thus put into the pockets of the French peasants many million of francs hitherto sent abroad while the price of meat will at the same time be so reduced as to brins it within the reach of the poorer classes in increased quantities. The consul says this doubtless involves the use of horse flesh and certain refuse matters of the slaughter house such as bones, offal and viscera which have before been thrown away. The essential requirement, it appears, is general establishment of slaughter houses with refrigerating chambers and appliances for the utilization of the edible offal while fresh, coupled with facilities for the preparation of boiling joints and the proper treatment of refuse, which, it is bellevetl, would at once place home farmers on a footing of equality with meat dealers abroad. It is further pointed out that a combination of co-operative societies will bring consumers an! producers Into more direct contact to the advantage of both. The consul chides American snippers for the careless manner in which they have shipped their cattle to Europe o that they, have come in bruised and tevered and with flesh in a septic condition, thus fostering the prejudice of the people. CHOLERA AM) THE PLAGUE. Neither Dlnennc In Xow Epidemic in Jttpnn or China. WASHINGTON. June 1. Surgeon-general Wyman, of the Marine Hospital Service, has received a letter from Dr. Stuart Eldridgc, the United States sanitary inspector at Yokohama, under date of May 10, regarding the rrevalenco of cholera and the plague. Dr. Eldrldge says: "The condition of Japan, as regards cholera, remains much as at the date of my last report. Single cases, rarely more, are reported from various localities in the region of the naval and military depots in the south and Isolated occurrences have been met with both In Hiago and Oraka. ?o far, however, the disease hits nowhere assumed the proportions of an epidemic and the Japanese authorities are evidentlv controlling it In an exceptionally successful manner, now long iney may do anie to do so remains to be seen. There is absolutely no question but that in Honr Kon? and Macao, there have been cases of plague, though the usual attempts at concealment of the danger have been made. It is to be hoped that tke lesson of last year will not be lot so faN as the authorities of Hong Kong are concerned and that with the light of our new and more exact knowledge of the disease more or less successful efforts to control It will be made." Mr. Grenham "Will Ilenlde in Chlrnso. WASHINGTON, June 1. It is announced that Mrs. Gresham . will not return to Washington, but will make her residence in Chicago hereafter with her children. All of the effects of the late Secretary at the Arlington have been packed up and will bo shipped to Chicago.

June l.-The steamer Belglc arrived to-day, bringing the following advices from Tckio under. date of May 19: Tho popular expectation of ministerial changes in Japan grows stronger every day. Although nothing has happened yet to prove that Count Ito contemplates immediate retirement, his early disappearance from the present stage Is regarded as a certainty, and the attention of the official class is chiefly directed to questions bearing on the succession. Reports are received from Kioto that Count Yamagata will be requested to form a Cabinet, and that the position now held by Viscount Mutsu will be tendered to Viscount Oaki, the present envoy to Germany, or to Count Okuma. As regards the heads of other departments no curiosity is displayed. Every one feels that the interests of the nation will for some time mainly depend on the management of foreign affairs, and that the selection of a competent minister for this branch of the administration is of first importance. Viscount Oaki has once before) had charge of the Foreign Office, which he conducted prudently, but without winning high distinction. He is by no means considered the equal of Mutsu In abiiity, but he would be content to serve as the Prime Minister's actual as well as nominal subordinate, which would be essential to the smooth working of any Cabinet led by Yamagata. This, however, could not be expected of Okumwa. who is one of the most powerful men. intellectually, in the country, and with whom no member of the existing Cabinet, except Mutsu, can at all compete. If Okumwa joins an administration he will rule it, no matter who is .the titular chief. It is not probable, tnerefore. that -he will take the foreign portfolio unless a Prime Minister Is appointed wno will accept his guidance and carry on the government as he may direct. It is unfortunate in the present condition of affairs that Viscount Mutsu should be compelled by any stress of circumstances to abandon his post. His colleagues, one and all, may retire without injury to the public service, but his talents are especially fitted for the duties which will soon devolve on the Foreign Minister, and his recent experience gives him advantages in many respects over even Okumwa. In demanding his withdrawal the heedless populace will deprive the state of one of the few servants who are qualified to deal with the impending international complications. The Emperor's return to Toklo is expected before the end of May. The Cabinet ministers now absent will accompany him. Until they are all back In the capital no decisive movement will be made in any direction. The Japanese authorities In Corea. have completed a census of Seoul, the first ever known to have been taken systematically. One hundred and eighty-seven thousand four hundred and two inhabitants are reported. Of these 123.534 are males and C2.&43 are females. The Russian authorities announce that torpedoes have been laid at Vladlrostock, and goods will be permitted to enter the harbor only in tne daytime and in charge of pilots. As to whom this precaution is directed against, nothing is known. Clnti Spreckeln In London. LONDON, June 1.

Burrell, when asked why he did not make himself known, said he did not want people to know his whereabouts, and expressed no regret that his supposed slayer was serving a term of imprisonment. Rice will be released. TALE OF A WILD SEA.

His last minutes were made restless by the noise made by the inmates of the front rooms. The occupants of the latter were drinking beer, laughing and -shouting. A small crowd . stood in front of the house listening to the noise. Patrolmen Kurtz and Holtz came along and made the crowd scatter. The women were ordered to leave. Two of them, Mattie West and Dora Hogeland, were placed under arrest, charged with disturbing the peace. After quiet had been restored, and while the officers were still in the house, the old man passed away. CONFIRMATION SERVICES TO-DAY. Candidates In Loenl Roman Catholic Churclien Number Two Hundred.

Matthews, a mail clerk, was arrested last night by patrolmen Kurtz and Holtz, and slated for drunkenness. He had an ugly wound in the rear of his head, which he said was made by a sandbagger.

Mr. Matthews had the misfortune to be held up once before. That time the crime occurred in the neighborhood of the Statehouse. Stewart Writes a Letter. A letter has been sent to the Democratic voters of the Eighth school district over the signature of Romus F. Stewart, Senator and close ally of John Frenzel. It pleads with the voter as a well-known Democrat to stick to Charles Adam as the Democratic candidate for the School Board and attempts to make it appear that Mr. Williams is running as a political party candidate. The letter announces that there will be a meeting Monday night in a hall in the district and the presence of every Democrat is desired. Fatal Sunstrokes. BALTIMORE, June 1. There were two fatal cases of sunstroke to-day. It was 97 degrees. ILL-BRED CURIOSITY. AVotnnn Pays n Hljrlier Price for Publicity than Man. London Queen. Woman pays a higher price than man for publicity in any form. Men can afford to be more indifferent to the world's tongue, and, besides, no one dreams of tormenting them with the impertinent questioning to which a woman in similar circumstance? is subjected. One of the most formidable foes a public woman has to combat, and one against which her shield of natural reserve is often an ineffectual weapon, is the illbred, though possibly well-meant, curiosity of the world at large into her private life. People call it "taking an interest." To take an interest in public women and their characteristics is natural enough, but to wish to pry into the inner recesses of their private lives, to dig up the past, to ruthlessly draw aside the curtain they would wish kept closed, is surely a cruel act, and is far- too common in a world which teems with kindness. Directly a new feminine name comes to the fore in any public branch say in literaturethe questions at once arise. Who is she? What is she? Can you tell me anything about her? The one who can tell something about her is listened to eagerly so eagerly that the temptation to draw on the imagination and lend a little local color is irresistible. "Whispering tongues can poison truth," and in this manner good names and. reputations are gossiped away every day. Why should a woman, because she has, by her own industry and talent, made a name for herself be worried with iispIpsa nnd idle nuestionR bv nponle whn only meet her for a few hours in society and will probably never meet her again? People uo not mean to be unkind, but they let their curiosity get the better of them. If they, cannot glean the information they want in by-ways, they, go to the fountain-head itself, and probe in a roundabout fashion until the public woman is plagued to death by their questions. She may not choose to tell much, and probably makes up her mind beforehand to tell nothing at all; but to refuse to reply to certain questions gives rise to suspicion, and leaves the Impression that there is something In the background. Therefore, the hapless victim (especially If there is something In the background) writhes "beneath , the torture, and, if she is a nervous, sensitive woman, suffers untold agonies. A literary woman gives the world In her dooks as much of herself as she cares to give. She throws down no challenge, Invites no comment but literary criticism, and why she ehould be vivisected to satisfy the curiosity of the world at large is an open question. Why should the peculiarities of public women, their love affairs, their places of abode, their dress, their domestic arrangements. In short, every detail of their private affairs, be trumpeted forth to the world? Kingsley says: "The past Is our own no Mend can take that from us." Our present and our future are ours. too. and ours alone. One woman of the writer's acquaintance, holding a public position, lately tnought right to change her religion. This act, which one would have thought a purely personal affair, evoked so much criticism, and evolved her in so many disagreeable interviews, that, although not actually led to the stake, she has practically suffered a martyrdom. It has been often said that all women love notoriety. This Is not so. Too often it is thrust upon them by the necessity to earn, and when such Is the case surely it is not an unreasonable request when the public woman asks to be allowed to cherish her one ewe lamb the sacredness of her rrivate life. The rinfcree Core for Tlpplinjr. Buffalo Courier. A man prominent in the affairs of Dunkirk yesterday related the following incident: "One day, two months after I had signed the pledge, I had a craving for a drink of whisky so strong that I could see nothing else but drinks about me, and felt as If 1 must have at least one drink. I told a friend of my state of mind. He sa.d, You need not drink. I can tell you of a substitute that will stop your discom--fort. Get a bowl of lc water and a raw potato, peel it and cut down one end of it to a size convenient to take In the mouth. Dip the potato in the ice water an suck it every time you think yoa must have the whisky I did as he advised. I took the bwl of ice water and the potato and placed them on a table at the head of, my bed. and would dip the potato in the water and place it between my lips every few moments till I went to sleep. I awoke free from my desire to drink whisky, and have been free from It ever sinoe. That one treatment eradicated my craving for whisky for all the time t&it has since elapsed."
