fifty acres of wheat will yield at least
twenty bushels per acre. He says that Ed.
Nelson's eighty acres of wheat are q total

constitutional convention, fourteenth day:
With the exception Of the joint commission
and few others excused from attendance,
about all the delegates were present at to-

are slow in reporting and little business
was developed. The call Of the commit
tees resulted in promises of q large num-
Der of reports for tomorrow. They held a
stormy session this afternoon and rescina-
ed all previous action. The falling to
pieces OF their almost finished work is at
tributed to the undue advantage which the
apportionment arrived at gives to one OF
two counties.

morning when the Emery was about sew
enty miles off Highland light, the missing
men set out in dories to tend their trolls.
The weather was very thick and the fog

kept up until Monday after

much noise made as possible to attract their
attention, but nothing could be seen or
heard of him. The captain is nearly dis

he believes they have been picked up by a

WANAMAKER AT WORK.
He BEGINS TO REALIZE WHAT A
BIG JOB HE HAS ON HAND.

Giving His Sign ature and Shaking
Hands with Callers Kept Him Busy
Yesterday-He Rents the House Oc-
cupied by Ex-Secretary Whitney
He Makes Favorable impression.
WASHINGTON, March 7.--Postmaster
General Wanamaker was probably never
buster in his life than he was to-day. For
the first time, perhaps, he realized what
big contract he has undertaken. During
the hours that he was at the postofflce de-
partment he was kept busy signing his
name or shaking hands every minu and
often had to attempt both at once. The
custom more honored in the breach than in
the observance which demands calls of cere-
monv from senators and representatives on
newly indicted members of the cabinet,
kept all the heads of the departing t ex-
changing compliments, but Mr.. Wanna
maker seemed to have more of this TO do
than any one else except Secretary Blaine.
PoSToFFICE SEEKERS.
In addition he had to see few (compara-
tiyely) of the roStOffics seekers who are
thronging he hotels and boarding houses,
In the midst OF all came the he s OF Mr.
Willamson's death, which affected Mr..
Wanamaker deeply. Then he had to go to
his first cabinet meeting, VIII Gu took large
slice cut the day, and after that he went
house-hunting. After looking at several
desirable residences, he finally Diet rmined
upon Secretary Wbitney's pleasant hou o,
No. l,73i | street, formerly the residence
of the Frelinghuysens, when Secretary Ere
linghuysen was in the Senate and the cab
met, and at one time the residence OF Sem
ator Don Cameron.
npTTON m pTfpCuAcE
Mr.. Wanamaker secured Secretary Whit
neys option to purchase the property. As
improved by Secretary Whitney it is
value at $50, 900. 1t Is in such good condi-
ton that tho Wanamakers will move in on
Moudav. Mr.. Wauamaker goes to Phila-
delphia on Saturday to make final arrange
ments for living here. He may have to sayI
farewell for time at least. 1t will be
difficult for him to get away from his ex-
acting department. even over Sunday. His
predecessors / ave had tn work Su days in
order TO keep up. Mr. Wanamaker viii not
do this, Of course, but he will have to work
all the harder during the week to make up.
LOOKING FOR AN ASSISTANT.
He is looking around for a bright, clear
young man, acq ainted with politics and
politicians, for First Assistant Postmaster
General, to whom he ca exte d share Of
his abors with confidence. He does not
seem to want the venerable Lyner Star
Route Brady's friend, nor Green hacker
Brumm. nor any Of the others so far sug-
gested for this place, and SO far he mas not
been able to put his finger on the man he
wants. Mr.. Wanamaker has made an ex-
cellent impression here upon the public men
and the newspaper men.

several hundred boomers from the western

CAN HARDLY BE HELD BACK.
The throngs of anxious boomers who
have cen waiting at Purcell for weeks can
scarcely be held hack, and a together the
indications are that there will be fully 1000
men here inside of a week, unless the mill
tary moves from Fort Reno at once.
Preparations for a raid have been going on
at the fort for some time, and it is expected
that they will move tomorrow or
next day. The probabilities are, however,
that raid of the soldiers would only result
in the scattering of the squatters through
the woods as they are air lady within q
limits of Okla oma in sufficient numbers to
come back faster tina they ca be sent out.
1t is the universal prayer that the Preside c

he will do.

BOUND TO RULE THE SEA.
A MONSTER NAVAL APPROPRIA-
TON FOR ENGLAND,

Lord George Hamilton Proposes to
Different Glasses at Cost of Over
$loo,ooo,ooo-Bow the Proposition
Was Received by the Opposition.
LONDON, March Tn the House of Com
mons to-day. Lord George Hamilton, first
lord OF the admiralty, stated that the delay
in supplying the navy with guns was
due to the failure of the system of
lining. All the ships, he said, would be-
supplied by the end of the present year. He
stated that the government proposed to
build eight first-class men-of-war of 1900
tons each, and two Of 1900 tons. Nine
first-class cruisers twenty nall cruis-
ers, four Of the Pandora type of crn isers and
eighteen Of the Sharpshpoter type # torpedo
vessels. The total tonnage of all the e vessels
will be $4,000 and the cost 92I, 100000.
RAISING THE MONEY.
He asked that GlG, 900, 600 be appropriated
from the consolidate fund for the proposed
increa,e of the navy, and that the re-
mainder OF the sum required be provided
for in the ordinary estimates. He promised
that tho admiralty's programme would be
executed within four and b IF years.
Mr.. Goschen, cha cellor of the exchequer,
said that the total vote to be asked for 1889
was IS, 5000, inc uding e., 100000 for
rev construction. 1t was not proposed to
raise the 9l0 900, 900 asked, which might be
called the navai defense fund, by means Of
loan. The gov ernment's scheme was o
equalze the payments over seven years,
imposing 81, 100000 additional taxation
yearly.
WHERE IT WILL BE DONE.
Lord George Hamilton said that R10, 00O.-
600 of the work would be put out at prl-
vate contract, while the remainder would
be done in the government dock yards. The
scheme must stand or fall as a whole.
Therefore he hoped the opposition would
treat the proposals in a patriotic
| spirit. He did not think that the proposed
naval increase would induce other nations
to attempt to rival England in naval
strength, because England had refrained
from military rivalry. Fufther, he did not
believe any other pc yer was capable Of ex-
ecuting such an extensive pro ramme in SO
snort a time.
A PARTISAN HINT.
Lord Randolph Churchill criticized the
government for making proposals whi h
might be upset by the succeeding govern
ment.
Lord Charles Beresford complained that
the government gave no real reason why
just SO many ships, no more ard no less,
should be built. He gave notice of an
anne dment declaring that England's naval
strength out to be equal to the navies OF
France and any other great power com.
| bined.
The army estimates for 1890 show an in.
| crease of 1891, 900.
The radicals will oppose every stage of
| legislation come ted with Lord George
] Hamilton's scheme. It is expected that Mr..
Gladstone will lead tie opposition attack on
| the government.
