Els Right to be Called Republican
Denied by E5tee's Friends.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-Senator CALM
ger, who has been supposed to be opposed
to the appointment of ex-Gov. Cheney
as Secretary of War because Senator Chan
dler was pressing MIR. Cheney, has sur-
priced every body by turning up here as
warm advocate Of Mr. Cheney
appointment. Senator Gallinger made the
most eloquent speech OF his life to the Presi-
dent in Mr.. Cheney's behalf on Saturday,
aud to-day used his personal efforts With
other men likely to be consulted by the
President.
LIKELY TO GET THE APPOINTMENT.
Now that Mr. Cheney has the support of
both of the leaders of his party in New
Hampshire he is very likely to get the ap-
pointment, unless the President, who feels
that the Pacific coest has not
had its share of appointments.
and remembers that it has
q good many votes in the convention, de-
termiues TO give the place to Californian.
Ai. 81. Estee, the Pennsylvanian-Ca Califor-
nisu, who presided so ponderously over the
last republican national convention. is be-
ing strongly urged by all the California re-
publicans, headed by Senator FELTON,, who
is here for that purpose.
STANFORD UNDER FIRE.
Stanford, TO be sure, opposes him, but as
a farmers alliance candidate for the presi-
dency, known to have contributed literally
to its funds, the other Californians think he
ought not to be reckoned republican.
However, the cautious Harrison, unwilling to
lose possible point, or to make new
enemy, is disposed to coddle Senator STAN
ford, aud has lntimated to Senator Felton
that it will be wise for him and the others
to select another man besides SIR. Estee,
whom Senator Stanford will not oppose.
OF course, in the shuttle the President may
lose whatever votes ne might get in the
Pacific coast delegation, but the Pacific
coast delegates are usuA ally Blaine men.

LONDON, Nov. 9.-To-day Is the 50th an
niVersary of the birth OF II. r. II the
Prince Of Wales. The occasion was cele-
brated IN a quiet manner at Sandrlngham,
in Norfolkshire. A largo number of con-
gratulatory letters and kilograms were re-
ceived by his highuess and many presents
we're forwarded to him from various parts
OF Great Britain and the continent. The
Prince of Wales, through his patronage
of various London theaters, has done
much to make the success of numerous
playa produced at these establishments
and the managers and actors were desirous
OF showing in some way their ap-
probation. Some time ago move
ment was started among the dramatic
profession loodng to the formation
OF fund to purchase present to be given
the prince to-day. Subscriptions to the
fund poured In rapidly, and those having
the affair in hand decided upon gold cigar
box as suitable token of their regard.
To-day Sir Augustus Harris, John
Mare. Mr.. Bancroft, Berholm Tree
aud DOyley Carte. representing the
theatrical profession. proceeded from
London TO Sandringham. where they pri-
vately presented their gift to the princa.
The present weighs 100 ounces, and the value
of the metal alone is very great. The top Of
the Dox is surmounted by three ostrich
feathers, forming the coat of arms OF the
Prince of Wales, set with diamonds.
The Standard, in leader on the Prince
of Wales 50th birthday, congratulates
the prince in highly eulo9istio language,

capt. Schley Contradicts Some of the
Sensational Rumors Af1oet.
WASHINGTON, Nov. "a cableEram re-
ceived by Secretary Tracy from Can't
Schley, dated Valparaiso, Chile, yesterday,
states there are no indications of any feeling
OF hostility toward the Baltimore's com
pany at Valparaiso. The navy department
announced this morning in Issuing this
cablegram for publication that it was not
sent by Capt Schley in response to any in
curry from here. It was probably inspired
by the receipt at Valparaiso of cablegrams
from frie1ds OF the officers of the ship, ask
Ing about the truth of the rumor that was
abroad here two or three days ago, that the
baltimore had been blown up by the
Chileans. Capt. SchIey undoubtedly
thought II such rumor was circulating at
home that he had better deny it offic ially.
Ills remark about the lack Of hostility to-
wsrds his men is taken to mean that there
are no open signs of antagonism Just now.
whatever may have been the state of the
pucllc feeling nearly a month ago when the
attack was made on the crew In the city.
THE ACTIVITY AT THE NAVY, YARDS
Regarding the reports of unusual activity
and Sunday work in the navy yards, il is
said at the navy department that it has no
war-like Significance. No order has been
sent from the department for Sunday work,
and it is not known officially that there has
been any. Ithas been common practice to
work O force of men over time at the navy
yards when there was particular need for
haste, and il the work has been
pushed on Sundays it has been in pursu
ence of general order to hasten the work
of repair on the ships in order to have them
in readiness for their winter cruises. The
order in the case of the Miantonomah was
issued weeks ago. The monitor has gone
into commission, which puts the govern
ment to considerable expense to maintain
her, SO that it is in the interest of economy
to hasten her completion and put her into
serViceable condition.
THE ATLANTA's CASE.
In the case of the Atlanta, orders were
sent to complete her repairs with all haste,
when the disquieting news was received
from Brazil last week. with the intention of
sending her to Rio de Janeiro. The orders
have not been countermanded, notwith-
standing the disappearance Of the urgent
features OF the situation in Brazil, so that
any work done on the vessel yesterday was
in pursuance Of the original order. The
construction bureau of the navy reports
that while the work of repair on the ships
has been progressing rapidly as a matter of
fact, the bureau itself has less work under
way at present than for months past.

cellar, was fearfully burned, aud was i'm
prisoned there until the flames were subdued
30 that he could be brought out. He then
appeared as a raving maniac. His hair as
burned Oft, and his whole scalp had the ap-
pearance Of being burned TO a crisp. He
was taken to hospital, where his injuries
were pronounced not fatal. The injured
are:
Alfred Doherty, a fireman. was hurt on the
arms and neck by falling cornice.
Capt. Hurley Of fire company No. 2, and

GENTLY to make it necessary to taEe them
to hospital.
Lieut.. William Bocklsge and Edward
Anderson were hurt by q falling ladder
Each had fractured skull and both were
dead shortly after reaching the hospital.
There were eight men on the ladder when
it fell. The break was caused
by the yielding of the cornice,
upon which the top Of it rested. The fire
was confined to the building in which It
started, although at the roof it broke over
the fire wall and damaged the building for
merly occupied by the Mosler Safe and
Lock Company. Mr. Oker estimates his

Eiremen Still Fighting After Four
Days of Incsssaut Work.


Days of Incsssaut Work.
DULUTH, MINI, Nov. "a great coal
pile on the Northwestern Fuel Company's
docks is on fire. although water has been
pouring into the burning mass at the rate
OF 500 gallons a minute since last Friday.
Some sixty men are wheeling away coal
from the pile, but the firemen cannot reach
the hottest portion Of the blaze. The fuel
company has asked the Minneapolis fire do
partment for an engine. which is expected
here to-day. If air reaches the smolderinp
fire the whole mass, containing thousands
of tons of coal, is likely TO be DESTROYED
Some Of the largest elevators are near the
coal docks, but. it is believed that they can
be saved. The Duluth fire department is
working In relays Of six hours each. Moth
ing further is known of the cause than
that it is believed to have beeu
from Spontaneous combustion. The full
extent Of the loss is not yet known, but it
will doubtless reach into the huadreds Of
thousands OF dollars. Engine No. 3 and
2,000 feet of hose in charge of eight firemen
was sent from Minneapolis this morning to
relieve the overworked fremen here. They
will probably be required week.
