COSTLY MANEUvERs,
Recent Accidents to British Ships WI
Cost Over a Million.

LONDON. August 25.-It is estimated that the
accidents to the various war ships during the
recent naval maneuvers have cost the govern.
meut 81 ,250, 600 The evolutions were remark
ably unfortunate in this respect some of the
most extraordinary collisions and other mis-
haps occurring either as the result of ineffi.
ciency on the part Of the men or faults in the
construction Of the vessels, and, despite the
enormous costliness Of the maneuvers, the naval
journals ridicule the whole affair as fasco. Nc
shots were exchanged, and, in fact, the opposing
sections Of the feet did not sight each other
during the whole period OF their supposed
engagement. The critics severely condemn the
admiralty for allowing such slovenly work to be
done by the feet and on every side are heard
indignant complaints of corruption in the
bureau OF naval construction. II is charged
that the deterioration noticeable in the service
is only the natural and inevitable effect of the
system of iobbery which prevails at head
quarters. The only chance Of removing the
scandal is declared by many to be to separate
entirely the constructive from the operative
departments, and to make the acceptance OF
vessels constructed by private builders condi-
tional upon their success in practical trials

THE SOLDIERS HOMES.
The Board of Managers Explain the
Rules Governing Admissions.

The response Of the board Of managers of Ma
tional Soldiers Home to the Senate resolution
calling for information as to the rules govern
ing admissions to the homes was transmitted
to the Senate today by the president Of the
board, Gen. W. B. Franklin.
The answer says that it will be observed that
the fact that q soldier was q pensioner
seems to have had no bearing
on his right to admission to a
home. In fact, at first a pensioner was
considered eligible because he was pensioner.
The law of July s, 1894, opened the doors Of
the Home to a vast number of men
who had been hitherto excluded and
tho result was that the House was crowded.
1t was therefore determined that hereafter no
manager should admit soldiersrecsiving pen
sion of more than SIG per month, unless there
we're circumstances that warranted making
il an exception to the rule. When the House
is full, all pensioners, however needy, are made
to wait until non-pensi0ners who are applicants
for admission have been either admitted or
rejected
