Special Gable Dispatch 10 THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, March l9.-I called on Lord Ram
dolph Churchill yesterday, in his pretty house
IN Connaught place overlooking HYDE park. to
learn his views on the governments naval
policy. found him in a most military mood.
determined to smite his old colleagues and spare
not, but he will confire his criticisms 20 paria-
ment He says the present position of things
is fatal to all ministerial responsibility. For
three years the ministers have been declaring
the navy adequate and last year they actually
reduced the estimate. Now he SAYS the same
ministers come forward. saying the navy is
dangerously weak. This shows they have no
fixed standard for the requisite naval strength
of the empire. He would make the ministers
OF war and the navy professional men with
permanent seats IN the cabinet. but only sum-
moned to cabinet councils for military or naval
business. Only so he thinks will responsibility
be brought home. He further believes
Englands
BIG IRoN-cLADs INCAPABLE OF FIaHrrNG
and the construction of new ships is therefore
Indispensable. He would spend more and
quicker than the ministers propose, but only
after reforming the admiralty and appointing
an impartial commission of experts TO fix the
standard of strength of the British feet. He
thinks an increased expenditure will be popular
IN the country, but stigmatizes the govern
ments brlblng of working class constituencies
at the by-electlons by promises of the eXpendi-
ture as a most unprinclpled attempt to corrupt
the democracy. In spite of Churchills brave
words the liberals distrust his sticking 10 his
guns and If the government should really De in
tight place they think he would back down.
lie denies this, but says his position is very diff
cut In any case; he is determined therefore to
persist, whatever be the consequence.

would willingly consent to that amendment
THE CHINESE BILL.

Mr.. German instanced the case of the Chinese
bill which had been passed, last session,
without waiting for necessary information,
and in regard to which the Senate
had afterward asked the President
for information that he had received
from the minister to China and which the
President alone could give. He would not
vote for any rule that required the sending to a
committee of resolution asking the President
for information. The adoption of the pro-
posed rule gould not but be understood by the
country as Intended to throttle inquiry into the
administration of the government
HE MOVED TO AMEND
the proposed rule, first, by emitting from it the
reference to inquiries from the President of
the United States; and, second, by adding to it
the words:
Which resolution shall be reported to the
Senate within one week thereafter"
MR.. BUTLER AGAINST THE NEW RULE.
Mr.. Butler argued against the proposed rule,
holding that the good resulting from the rule
as it had stood heretofore far outweighed its
disadvantages. If cabinet officer could be
required to be on the floor of the Senate
and House on stated days, he was
not sure that that would not be
an improvement but as that could not be done
the only means of ascertaining from the
heads OF the departments information
which might be regarded by the Sem
ate as necessary, ought to be left
just as it was. Mr.. Hoar proposed, as an
amendment, that whenever any inquiry for in
information shall be addressed by the Senate to
to such officer that the same has been already
furnished, he shall be at liberty to communi-
cate such opinion to the Senate, and await Its
further pleasure.

The director of the mint has issued a circu-
lar, approved by Secretary Window, stating
that 5-cent nickel pieces and 1-cent bronze
pieces will be forwarded in the order of ap-
plication from the United States mint at
Philadelphia to points reached by express COM
OF go or multiples thereof, upon receipt
and collection by the superintendent of
that mint of a draft on New York
or Philadelphia, payable to his order. To
points not reached by express companies, and
where delivery under contract with the gov
ernment is thus impractieable, the coin can
be sent by registered mail at the
applicants risk, the government to pay the
registry fee. Orders for transportation at the
risk of the applicant should express acceptance
of the risk

NOMINATION WITHDRAWN.
The nomination of Eugene Schuyler, of New
York, to be first assistant secretary of State
was withdrawn, he having declined the appoint
ment.
The delay in confirming the nomination OF
Eugene Schuyler to be First Assistant Secretary
OF State, has caused some comment and in
quirles were made as to the reason therefor
1t is stated that opposition to his confirmation
was based largely upon statements in his
book on American Diplomacy" which, il
is claimed, reflect unjustly upon a
number of men in public life, some of them
now in the Senate. Schuyler was not originally.
if ever, candidate for the Office OF first assist
ant secretary of State, but desiSed the mission
to Italy.

TRAMPs RUNNING THE GAUNTLET.
Their Speed was Accelerated by Barrel
Slaves and Clubs.

ANDERSON, ND, March l9.-FOr several days
gang of tramps have been causing much an
noyance here by their insulting manner TO wo-
men. Last night eight of the fellows were
found IN the Midland depot, where they had
forced an entrance and taken possession. A
gang of about thirty men armed with poles and
barrel slaves gathered from convenient head
ing factory and led by the town marshal went
TO the depot and formed a gauntlet along the
railroad. Through these lines of men the
tramps were forced to run, their speed being
accelerated by heavy blows well laid on by the
men. The tramps were numerically whipped,
the blood trickling from many OF them by the
time they had reached the end OF the gauntlet
1t has been nearly three years since tramps
have bothered Anderson, il being the custom
10 run them through gauntlet into the river.
Citizens generally approve the course.
