The Cruiser Charleston's Silver Bell.
WASHINGTON, June 19.-The Secretary of
the Navy has written letter to Represent
ative Morrow. of California, thanking him
for the information regarding the metal in
the bell of the new cruiser Charleston. Mr..
Morrow. in his letter. informed the Secre-
tary that a few days before the casting OF
the bell the pattern-maker at the works
suggested that it would be q pity to use
ordinary metal. and suggested that each of
the workmen on the steamer contribute ten
cents In silver to enrich the composition
and give superior ring to it. The entire
force of more than thousand responded, TO
a man. The sum realized amounted to
about $780, nearly all of it in ten-cent
pieces. 1t was placed in the crucible and
mixed with the other metal used in making
the bell. In connection with this the Sec
retary says: There have been many val
uable presents made to ships of the navy
by towns and persons, but there is not one
that the department values and appreciates
more highly than this offering from the
workmen of the Charleston"

He Will try TO maintain to the fullest ex-

which began yesterday were absolutely
necessary. because there is not enough
money available to carry on the work at

he possibly could during the
last few months of his ad-
mnistration, and beyond this there was
an unusually large amount of work to be
done. Mr.. Palmer will make very few APP

it will be perhaps many weeks before there

Will Import Professors of Theology.

WASHINGTON, June 19.-In view of the
fact that the Attorney-general has refused
to decide upon hypothetical question,
whether or not the alien contract labor

of theology for the new Catholic university.
Mr.. Martin Morris, counsel for the trustees
of the university, said that nothing re-
country and have the matter tested. Mr..
Morris said he regretted the AttOrney-gen-
erals refusal to interpret the law, as the
officers of the university did not wish to
be put in a position of law-breakers. He
did not believe, however, that the law
would be construed SO as to exclude them.
The men. he thought, should be classified
as lecturers and as such they were exempt
ed from the operations of the law.

4 TRANscoNTINENrAL RAILWAY.
PORT TOWNSEND TO BE THE NORTHERN TER,
MTNUs CT THE UNION PACIFIC.


PORT TOWNSEND TO BE THE NoRTHEKS TER
MINUS CT THE UNION PACIFIC.
About two years ago local capitalists or
ganized the Port Townsend Southern Rail-
road Company, with the object OF building
from Port Townsend southwark to a con-
nection with the Northern Pacific railroad
near Chehalis, and thence TO Portland,
Oregon. While there is little doubt that
the local company would have succeeded
in selling their bonds and building the road.
they desired 20 become at the outset part
and parcel Of an existing transcontinental
system, rather than an independent local
road. Negotiations looking toward that
end were begun. and 1t may safely be stated
that all preliminaries have been arranged
whereby the Union Pacific railway will
build the Port Townsend Southern and con-
meet it with their main system at Portland.
Briefly stated the situation is this: A
syndicate Of Eastern capitalists,
including large stockholders in
Railway & Navigation companies have
taken the stock Of the Port Townsend
Southern company, together with the
bonus, and have agreed to build the road,
With the idea Of turning it over 10 the
Union Pacific when completed. The dis
lance from Port Townsend to Portland is
207 miles. Except for one stretch of
twenty-eight miles along the west shore Of
Hoods canal. the road will traverse rich
agricultural and timber districts. The
maximum grade is per cent, and after
thorough examination of the original sur
vey, railroad engineers had no hesitancy in
saying that the construction Of the road
was decidedly the easiest railroad propo-
sition in Western Washington. The bonus
in land granted to the Port Townsend
Southern company by citizens Of jefferson
county is estimated TO be worth at this
time nearly 81 .00o, 600. With the railroad
completed. the value win not be short of
5000, 900. Besides that there is q re-
cent subsidy of 500 900 in cash. Included
In the real estate bonus, is sufficient land
adjacent 70 tka city for all terminal pur-
poses, together with half q mile OF water
front-without question the largest and
most convenient railway terminus on
Puget sound. Three parties OF surveyors
are now in the field making the permanent
location. and the intention is TO build the
first section, viz: from Port Townsend to
Quilcene bay on Hoods canal, a distance
of twenty miles, during the coming
winter. Reference to q statement OF the
climate of Port Townsend in another coll
umn shows how railroad construction can
be prosecuted quite as well in winter as in
summer. The entire road viii probably be
completed before the end Of next year.
The certainty of railway connection with
the East has given TO Port Townsend ire
mendous impetus In every branch of bust
ness. and the present may fairly be con-
sidered the era OF great things for the Key
City of Puget sound
