MR.. MOULTON's HOPES,
He Thinks He Has ga Good Fighting
Chance" for Election to Congress.

1--WE have q good fighting chance. think,
this time" said Mr. H. b Moulton Of the
Washington bar this morning to Q STAR re-
porter. He was yesterday nominated for Con-
gress from the sixth congressional district of
Maryland by prohibition convention at
Frederick. ''You see,' he went ON,
''our platform is identical with that
Of the Farmers Alliance. The principles are
the same. In Montgomery county and in
Howard county the alliance has already in
dorsed our platform, and have no doubt that
the same course will be pursued in the other
counties. l believe that our ticket will poll a
good vote. At anyrate we are going in to win
and will make the campaign lively one."
Mr.. Moulton in speaking of his nomination
said that he supposed it was due to his having
been prominent in temperance work in Mont
gomery county and other parts of the state.
He said that be had had his country residence
at Washington Grove, Montgomery county, for
the past five years, and was besides quite a
large owner of property in that county. He
spoke of the great temperance gathering which
it was proposed to hold at Hagerstown on the
2Sth of this month, aud said that il was ex-
pected to be one Of the most important gather
ings ever held in the state.

WOMAN AND THE BALLOT,
A Favorable Report From the Senate
Committee.

The Senate committee on woman suffrage
reported to the Senate yesterday resolution
for constitutional amendment to extend the
right OF suffrage to woman. In the report ac-
companying the resolution the committee SAYS
that prejudice and custom have denied the suf-
frage to women, but that it is impossible to
give reason for its exercise by men which
does not apply with equal or greater force in
favor of its exercise by women. There may be
reasons why neither should vote But having
vested the sovereignty of the government in
men alone (one-half the individuals who con-
stItute society the American people find them
selves confronted by the logic of their own
precepts and actions when they deny to women
the like exercise of the suffrage which is the
government. Voting is conceded to be an act
or the mind in the perfection of which the
BODY is merely an instrumentality. Its object
ID the creation and enforcement of law. Women
have equal claims with men on society The
only distinction made is in physical condition.
IL woman physical powers of defense are less
she should be permitted to call in those intel
lectual and moral forces for her preservation
OF which she is an equal or larger participant
than man. The committee saws that the reso-
luton IL reported not merely because Of the
abstract right OF woman to vote where that
right belongs TO man, but on the broader
ground that the spirit of the Constitution re-
quircS it.

THE TRIAL OF THE CONCORD
Experimenting With a New System of
Forced Draught.

letter has been received at the Navy De-
partment giving an account of the preliminary
trial trip OF the gunboat Concord In Delaware
bay Monday. The vessel was under way four
hours and forty minutes, two-thirds Of the time
under forced draught Under natural draught
the steam pressure at the boilers ranged from
$50 to $50 pounds and the engines partly
throttled down, made from 125 to 100 revolu-
tons. Under forced draught the engines were
given more steam and averaged about 140 revo-
luhons, running at times as high as $50 The
steam pressure was irregular, varying from 100
to 100 pounds due to the iremen being unac-
customed to feeding forced-draught fires
The Concord and her twin, the Bennington.
are boats of the Yorktown class, but are re-
CURED by contract to develop $500 horse
power, being 400 more than the requirement
Tor the Yorktown. The only important differ
cnce between these vessels and the Yorktown is
In the systems of forced draught. In the York
town the air Is forced into the closed fire rooms
while In the Concord and Bennington and the
san FRANCISCO the air is carried into closed
ASH pits These are the first vessels in which
the closed ash-pit system has been used aud
their official trials will be watched with much
interest The air pressure on the Concord yes
terday varied from an inch to an inch and a
half In the main duct. The machinery of the
vessel worked very smoothly and she made
good speed. She will be ready for her official
trial III short time.
