A FORMIDABLE FLEET.

Orders have been sent to Rear Ad-
miral Chandler, commanding the At
iantic station, to dispatch one of the
vessels under his command direct TO
Samoa, to cooperate with the feet al
ready on the wav. Al the present time
there are only two ships that can be
sent, the Omaha and the Marion. The
Essex has been ordered to proceed to
the United States via Cape of Good
Hope and ut last accounts was reported

her way home aud is expected in New
York shortly, having left MADEIRA Oh
December 81. The Brooklyn, too, is
en- route, having left Honolulu in No
vember last under sail The Monocacy
and Palos are worthless, having been
SURVEYED and condemned, and will be
sold on the station. This leaves only
the Onaha and the Marion, and it is
believed by the navy department Of
ficials that the Omaha will be selected.
She is at present the flagship of tho
Asiatic station. and is commanded by
Captain Francis V. McNair.
The Omaha was entirely rebuilt
abont four years ago at the Portsmouth,
N. H., yard. She is of 2,400 tons
displacement and has battery of ten
inch guns, one inch pivot, one 60
FOUNDER breech loading rifle in her
main battery, with four Hotchkiss re-.
volving cannon, two. 60 FOUNDER breech
loading rifles aud two Gatlings in. her
secondary battery.
With the Trenton, Nipsic, Vandalia,

understood that the Adams, now al
Honolulu, en- route to San Francisco,
will be detained there if she can be

Generally the railroads and other large

to give rise to scandal, sometimes

have adopted a more legitimate plan.

GERMANY 8 NAVY.

Germany's navy is of very respecta-
bio proportions, but it is not of such
vast power as to scare the American
eagle out of any sleep. In 1876 we
braved old England, the strongest
nation then on earth, and we forced
her to relinquish her grip; IN 1872 we
tackled her again, and again came out
victorious. We do not believe in vain
glory, but we have confidence in a
country which in the green tree was
able TO weather such storms as these,
and which later on in very short order
put three and half millions of men in
the field and extemporized a navy.
On the sea to-day the battle is no
longer to the heaviest armor, as the
projectie is fast getting the better OF
even the thickest and the toughest
skin, and in projectiles American
ingenuity has done more than has
been accomplished by all the world
beside. 1t will not do to be careless,
to be over-confdent, or to be boastful,
but American craftsmanship should
stand for the honor and the interests of
America everywhere, in the Pacific
as we'll as the Atlantic, in Europe or
in Asia. If trouble shall come then
American brains and American Drawn
will, as in the past, prove equal to the
emergency. We have no doubt that
Mr.. Cleveland is doing all that should
be done, and that the American name
and fame will be protected while he
is president, and we feel sure that il
will be even when Mr.. Harrison
becomes the chief executive. In q
question of America against the
foreigner, whether he be French OF
English or German, Americans mus
be Americans before they are republi'
cans or democrats. We should depre
cate war with any nation, our voice
will always be for peace with honor
but there will, we verify believe, grow
balm out of foreign war, be it eve
so fierce, which, perhaps, can come il
no other way to heal the wounds be
tween the north and the south, whicl
were dealt by frstricidal strife. Mar
our prediction: If war does come n
portion of these United States wi
more quickly respond to the call t
arms than will the south, and th
same blood that was spilled in winnin
the laurels that encircled the brows {
t Lee and Jackson and Price, will b
{ dedicated to loyalty to that unio
which was so largely the work
their matchless fathers. Their vale
D and their patriotism will wiring frol
the people of the north that admiratio
q and love which they deserve to -da,
but which is WITHHELD from them by Il
n flaming speech and malicious writin
= of demagogues tor political etfec
n What'er betides may it rebound to Il
glory of our common country.

The first suit to test the legality OF
trusts was brought by the state
Louisiana nearly two years ago. III
American Cotton OIL Trust was this
defendant. The action was brought
on the relation of the attorney genera
of the state to dissolve the charters o,
,le various cotton oil companies III
Louisiana which had entered the trust.
After many delays the suit Is now on
trial before Judge Righton, in New
Orleans, on the demurrer set up by the
defendants that the state could moi
produce evidence enough to establish
the fact that the trust was monopoly
and. as such, forbidden by the consti
tuiion of the state. JuHge Righton hai
rendered a decision i'll favor of the
state. The case now comes up on al
points involved. Judge Righton''
preliminary decision is regarded a
conclusive that he will hold with Judge
Barrett, of New York, that trust
must 20. The case will 60 to th'
supreme court, and it is probable tha
the first decision concerning th
validity OF trusts in a court of iina
resort will be made in Louisiana. u
the case will be called up i'll tn
supreme court at an early day, tn
attorney general having authority t
claim precedence for all suits brough
