The Treasury department has received re.
port from Capt. Healy, commanding the reve-

entire Alaskan coast from Port Clarence to
Point Barrow. Ensign Howard and Seaman
Price, U. 5. n, who had been sent by LIEUT..

Barrow, were met at Cape Smyth and taken Cd

A Silk Keeling Machine.


THE EXPERIMENT THAT IS NOW BEING CAR
RIED ON AT THE AGRICULTURAL DEPART
MENT.
A machine for reeling silk from the cocoons
has been set up under the direction of Mr..
Philip Walker, of the Agricultural department,
and is now being operated In the wooden annex
in the department grounds. As this is an en-
tirely new machine and Is besides the first at
tempt that has ever been made to reel silk from
the cocoons in this country, it has excited great
deal OF interest. The object Of making thus ex-
pertinent is to carry out the clause apprOprial-
lug the money passed at the last session of
Congress and 70 demonstrate by practical
means that the raw silk can be produced in
this country. II the experiment should prove TO
be q success, q market would be opened for silk
cocOOns, which would greatly stimulate the in
dustry In this country. There is not one place in
France where this machine, which is u French
Invention. is now being operated. This machie
has six basins in Which float the cocoo rs.
The silk thread Is unreeleu from the cocoonS
and carried by series Of drums and wheels to
the reels. An ingenious mechanism operated
by electricity regulates the tension OF the
thread and he degree of dneness, and this is
gets In lair working trim its capacity will be
noted, as well as the cost Of operating il, and
then some conclusion can be reached as To It's
practical advantages. When these results are
reached II is expected that private enterprise
will take hold Of the machines and introduce
them throughout the country. Mr. Walkers
practical knowledge Of the entire subject will
enable the best results to be attained from this
experiment. &

Opposition to Morrison,

A BITTER FIGHT BEING MADE AGAINST HIM BY
PROTECTIONISTS.
STAR reporter talked to-day with friend of
Mr.. Morrison's from Illinois. He says an exceed
ingly bitter fight Is being made against the
great tariff reiormer. Every possible effort is
being made by the protectionists to defeat him.
The protectionists in Pennsylvania, he says,
are joining in the fight. Jarrett, the president
OF the Amalgamated Iron aud Steel associa-
tiOn at Pittsburg, and famous as q labor agita-
tor. is 10 Mr.. Morrison's district doing all he
can. IN fnf1nance The Labor vote against him.
Unoer the new apportionment the district is
said to be republican,. Mr.. Blaine carried 1t by
several hundred. Money, THE STARS inform
ant says, is being used freely, and there is
much uncertainty about the result. Certainly
no democrat who was less of 4 fighter than Mr..
Morrison could win. The place called East st.
Louis, just across the river from st. Louis,
where the labor riots occurred, is in Mr.. Morri-
sons district, and 1t brings a very uncertain
element into the contest. The laborers arc all
organized, and nobody knows which way they
are going. jarrett Is doing his utmost to influ.
ence them against the free-trade idea with
what success does not yet appear. To add to
the complication, many democrats are dissatis-
fed and inactive,

WHAT CoMMoDoRES HARMONY AND sCHLEY

Commodore Harmony said to STAR reporter:
"Every officer and every man on board a United
States vessel returning from q foreign station
naturally brings back with him curios and
knicknacks intended as presents for the folks
at home, which, under a strict Interpretation
of the law, might be dutiable. have no doubt
that the officers on board the training ships
brought some wine with them, and why
shouldn't they? But to suppose that they en-
deavored to smuggle large quantities into this
MADEIRA, and doubtless the officers purchased
some wine for their mess on the homeward
trip and to use when they got settled on shore.

foreign country without some little memen-
toes toes for friends: l am satisfied that every

are entered free for one passenger tnan was
brought by all the officers and men of the train

VINO had recently returned from Europe told
present that he brought over. He didn't SNUG
gle them, for they were for his sisters his
cousins and his a4nts: When l came
mand Of the Hartford I went to Collector
Arthur and told him that every officer and
man aboard ship had brought home some
little trifles that might be regarded dutia-
bic. He wouldn't even send an officer aboard
to make an inspection. but said that he was
satisfied that there was no intention to SNUG
gle, but that all we had were Intended Tor our
own use or tor presents to friends. He held
that our pay was ali that We had and that there
was no wrong in spending 1t tor little things
abroad which would not be purchased here
anyhow. You will see that there was SNUG

DUTY WAS TO HAVE BEEN PAID ON THE WINE.
Commodore Schley, chief OF the equipment
bureau, said to STAR reporter that there was
no attempted smuggling on board the training
ships. The officers did bring over considera-
bic quantity of wine with them from Madeira

for 1t, with the express understanding that the
duty, whatever it might be, should he paid. II
the commanding officer had been given AN OPP
portunity, Commodore Schley said, he would
have sent to the customs authority and asked
for AN inspector to come aboard 10 make APP
praisement OF such goods AS might be dutiable.
But the officers were treated Smugglers
