CHANDELIERS AUCTION SALE.
Several Old Hulks Belonging to the
Navy Disposed of at Fair Prices.

A Washington dispatch says, Secre-
tary Chambers auction of old hulks
proved more satisfactory than many
persons supposed it would Bids were
received, to-day, for all the vessels of
fered, except the venerable Pawnee
and the not less ancient but baoly rot
ted Florida, and there was some com
petition for several of the vessels.
The aggregate of the appraised valua-
tons of the vessels bid for was S27l,-
300. The whole cost to the government
of building, repairing, and,
equipping these ships was so, 064, 700.
Several of them, such as the Niagara,
Roanoke, and Susquehanna, did good
service in their time, and the govern
ment may be deemed to have got its
moneys worth out of them. Half a
dozen of them are only tug boats. The
New Orleans is an old line-of-battle
ship on the stocks, and the others be-
long to the large class of ships built
during and justafter the war of white
oak, because live oak was not to be
had, which have decayed rapidly. The
Florida, for which no bid was made,
Was dppIdlHti dt @Oti NV huAl"AetSieN Wy
more than any other vessel on the
list. The engines are the principal
thing of value about her She was
built for speed, and probably the fast
est steamer ever in the navy, but she
only made one cruise. Ten years ago,
when there was prospect of trouble
with Spain, she was partially fitted
for sea. According to a return made
to the department. her engine received
repairs and the boilers are not worth
repairing. Her machinery cost $685.,
600; and it appears that the govern
ment must reduce her appraised valua-
ton orretain her. The Congress, which
was sold for S26, 006, contains ma
chinery, the first cost of which was
$l12, 600, built just after the war, and
none of it is reported to be worth re-
pairing. The Iowa was appraised at
S44, 600, and was sold for just s. more
than that The Niagara was appraised
at 800, 600, and the highest bid was
exactly that sum. The secretary is in
doubt whether he can accept that bid,
because in inviting proposals it was
stated that the ship would be sold for
the highest bid above the appraised
value thereof. The sale does not in
clude the Alaska, Benecia, Saco
Tuscacora, Narragansett, and old
Manadnock, which are at the Mare Is
land ward.

PENSIONS.
The Publication of the Pension Lists
Being Rapidly Completed.

A Washington dispatch of Sept 26th
says:
The first volume of the publication
of the pension lists was received and
examined by Commissioner Dudly
to-day, and will be issued tomorrow.
1t contains the lists for New England.
New Jersey, and the District of Colum-
bia, and fills overseven hundred pages.
There are six columns on a page, Civ
ing the pensioners number name. a
condensed statement of the ground of
pension, the pensioners postOtIice adj
dress the rate of pension. and the
date when it began. This list, com
prising 800, 900 names, Will fill seven
volumes, and the government print
ing Office will issue one of them each
day until the whole is out The vol
ume containing the lists for Illinois
and some other western states, which
will be the largest in the series will
be issued day after tomorrow. Con
gress ordered the usual number-that
is 300 copies, and Commissioner
Dudley will have the distribution of
about a thousand of these, the rest
going to members of congress. Tho
commissioner anticipates a consider
able demand for the work, and that
congress next winter will order a new
edition of several thousand copies
The second edition viii permit of a
revision that will reduce the errors to
practically nothing. The present
edition contains the names of many
pensioners who have been dropped
from the rolls since the preparation of
tho lists began As the revision would
take much less time than the original
publication, the corrections could be
brought down to a date near the time
of publication. This vast work of
preparing a list of some 300 600 per-
sons with all the other information
mentioned, was performed in the pen
sion Office in about three months.
