Special Dispatches to THE MORNING CALI.

WASHINGTON, Sept. e." California OF
Wheels " has been visited by nearly all of
Washington notables, and left tonight at s
o'clock for Annapolis. Nd. where it will
remain one day and then 60 to Baltimore.
Invitations were sent to all the correspond
ents on Newspaper Row, and several of
them accepted yesterday, but they came
away complaining of their inhospitable
without cause if they had only
understood matters.
They labored under the hallucination that
California wines and fruits would be dis
pensed to visitors; but upon reaching the
train they had no sooner got in the car
door when one of the attendants said:
Gentlemen will please pass out at the
other door" The correspondents filed
through the car without noticing the ex-
hibits and warned their fellow correspond
ents to ''beware of California on Wheels"
Consequently very few of them visited the
exhibition and it lost much valuable ad-
vertising
OF course no visitor can reasonably expect
to be treated TO wine and fruit, when
thousands visit the exhibition daily. Wine
and bread used to be passed around among
the Mormons in their tabernacle, but the
congregation grew to such stupendOus pro-
portions that the Saints were compelled to
substitute water. Ii wine was freely dis
pensed by California on Wheels the vine
yards of the Golden State would be taxed
to their utmost.
As to hospitable treatment by attendants
the latter are obliged to request visitors to
pass in one door and out at the other to
avoid confusion in the narrow aises of the
cars. The attendants are very obliging and

NAVAL TRAINING.
Admiral Porter's Views on Sail Power and
Military Masfs

ANNAPOLIS. Sept 6.-Admiral David D.
Porter has contributed TO the proceedings
Of the United States Naval Institute his
views on paper recently read before the
institute by Rear-Admiral S. B. Luce upon
naval Training" Admiral Porter believes
that Admiral Luce handles too tenderly
those parties In the navy, whoever they
may be, who Instituted the system Of reduc-
ing the sail power on ships-of-war, and sup
plying everything with military masts with
out considering whether the ships were
intended as cruisers or vessels for coast
defense" Continuing, he says: Not one
of the new vessels hitherto planned or built
is tit for war purpos S in times of hostilities.
A cruiser cannot cruise for want OF sail
power. and a so-called line-of-battle ship
cannot 90 into battle for want OF proper en-
durance in time Of war. The result will
be that the present navy will be laid up on
account OF too much military mast and en-
tIre lack OF sail power, without which
vessel Of tile navy is not perfect machine.
The question OF sail power is one on
which the efficiency of the service
hinges. Every officer should bring to
bear what influence he possesses to cause
all cruisers and line-of-batte ships to be
fitted with sufficient sail power to enable
them to cruise for long periods at sea, if
necessary, without entering port, except for
provisions, so that they may save coal, as
did the Confederate steamer Alabama, for
an occasion when they may be called into
action, or chase an enemy too fast to be over
taken under sail. This is the battle con-
fronting the young officers of the navy, and
1t must be fought now We demand Tor our
sea-goigg vessels thirty-fve feet of canvas
for each square foot of mdship section. As
to coast defense vessels, they may be fitted
with as many military masts as the construc-
tors choose to supply. / think the article
under consideration will have the effect Of
drawing more strongly the attention of the
service to this vital question, and the fight
should commence at once, to ascertain
whether the ships OF the future are TO be
fitted out under the same regime of mistakes
that has characterized The navy for the past
teTyears, and which has given Us Squad
ron of Evolution that cannot evOlute, and
after training men at the training school
under spars and sail until they have become
gool sailors, has relegated them TO ships
where the mi itary mast is the order of the
day, and where hosting ashes is the nearest
approach to the steamship the apprentice
boy can Ie Irn."

CLEVELAND. Sept. Ga frightful acci-
dent occurred at the Wilsnn-avenue cross
ing of the New York, Chicago and St. Louis
railroad at 80 o'clock tonight, by which at
least dozen persons were terribly injured.
some fatally. The crossing is on steep
grade, down which runs an electric street.
railroad line. At the time the accident oc-
CURED freight train was standing close to
the crossing on the south track, and an
electric motor drawing one car was ap-
preaching from the south. The safety
gates were up and the road apparently
clear. just as the motor crossed the railroad
track a locomotive running about twenty
miles an hour dashed out from behind the
freight train. The pilot of the engine struck
the electric train between the motor and
trail-car, tearing them apart and hurling one
TO each side of tie track At least a score
of persons were on the trail-car, and they
were tumbled about in all directions, some
being hurled dozen feet away and Others
pinned under the car, which was demolished.
The street-railroad barns were close to tie
scene of the accident, and n rescuing party
was soon on hand. The victims were taken
from the wreck and hurried away in ambu-
lances to hospital within short space of
they had to be carried from the wreck.
There was no warning whistle ana the
bell was not rung. The engine plowed
right through the street-car. and the
screams of the frightened passengers rose
above the crashing of the frames of cars. A
moment later injured passengers were lying
abeut, groaning in agony. Two sisters,
Louisa and Minnie Mock, were in the car.
They were lifted out tenderly and partially
revived, Minnie's body was terribly crushed
and blood trickled from an ugly wound
in the head. She was taken to ST. Alexis
Hospital and died in half an hour. Her sis
terL0uisa was badly hurt about the head
and arms. the muscles of her right forearm
being torn away from the bone. She will
doubtless recover. The wrecked cars were
bespattered with blood, and the hands,
faces and clothing of the rescuers were
covered wieh the crimson fluid. Following
is the list of injured:
Minnie Mock, aged "a, crushed, died at
the hospital; J. A. Moore, 90 years. right

Masked Men Rcb a storekeeper

NILES, Sept. 6.-At about 10 o'clock last
night William Snyder, prominent citizen
Of Niles, was assaulted, seriously injured
and robbed of a considerable sum of money
by two unknown men. He had turned out
the lights In his place Of business in that
village and was about to leave the store
with $500 in coin in sack and about $50 in
his pocket when two men, whose faces were
bIackened. entered and leveled pistols at
him, ordering him to throw up his hands.
He knocked up the pistol of one of the men
with the bag of money and the weapon was
discharged in the air. The other man then
fired. and although the bullet did not hit
Mr.. Snyder, his face was burned by the
powder. He then told the men to take the
money, but not to kill him. They took the
coin and must have beaten their victim Sc
verely, for he was found some time after
ward in an insensibe condition. He is
said to be severely injured. Officers Trefry
and Ralph are in pursuit OF the robbers. but
they have no clew upon which TO work.
Two other attempts at robbery have been
made in the village within six weeks.

AN EDITOR CANED.
Exciting Encounter in the Lobby Of the
Irury Lane Theater in London.


LONDON, Sept. Ga most disgraceful
and exciting fist fight took place tonight be-
tween James Mcneil Whistler, the artist,
August Moore, proprietor and editor of the
Hawk, and William Horace Lingard, the
theatrical manager, in the foyer of Drury
Lane Theater. The place was crowded
with people, when Whistler entered with
a friend named Butterfed. He carried
a blackthorn stick, and when he caught
sight of Moore he raised the heavy stick and
rushed at the editor, whose lat was smashed
with the first blow he received. Before he
cJuld recover from his surprise at the
attack Whistler began beating him about the
head with the stick, and at the same time
shouted at the top of his voice and in a con-
temptuOus manner, Hawk Hawk HawkP %
Mo0re's temper was at once aroused and
he struck Whistler one blow between the
feiled the artist to the floor. Some of
Whistler's friends joined in the fracas,
amid a great uproar, which threatened to
assume serious proportions. Eventually
Moore was pushed into the American bar
and kept there by force, while the acting
manager of the theater, Fletcher, seized the
erratc artist, who was kicked out Of the
house without further ceremony. All was
quiet for moment, then fresh scene oc-
CURED. LingaId entered the foyer and
rushed ght at Moore and smashed him
In the face.
At once the men were locked in fierce
tussle before it was possible for any of their
friends 10 interfere. Moore is at a loss to
account for Whistler's conduct. since the
Hawk had not published anything about
him for several weeks,
