No Action by the Supreme Court in the
County Election Case-Adjourned
to the 26th.

John H. Knaebel, ESQ.,, is in receipt Of
a telegram from Washington stating that
the U. s. supreme court failed to take
any action yesterday in the Santa Fe
county election cases, and after brief
session took an adjournment until the
25th inst.
On that date it is confidently believed
that the opinion will be handed down.
The delay is taken as indicating that the
court will present rather an elaborate
opinion on this case, and discuss at length
the question of jurisdiction raised by
Counsellor Knaebel and deliberately

Coming Weather.

Foster, the weather prophet, certain
ly chit it" when he prophesied
that the storm to sweep over the
Rocky mountain country, "from the 9th
to the 10th, would cause an increase Of
foggy and cloudy weather, with cooler
weather than usual about two days after
the storm had passed by" Foster now
says: "A storm wave of only ordinary
force will be due to leave the Pacific coast
about May Is, to cross the Rocky-Alle-
ghany valley from 10th to 18th and reach
the Atlantic coast about the 10th. The
low barometer of the storm wave will
pass across the continent south of the
fortieth degree of north latitude, and the
cool wave and frosts following it will
reach further south than is usual for the
time of year. This storm will become
quite severe on the Atlantic coast about
the 10Th, and following it will occur the
coolest weather OF the month.

argued by him before the court last month.
In this event the opinion of the court will
not prove of local interest alone but will
doubtless cover questions Of moment for
all the territories.
In this connection it may be remarked
that the court seems not to have very
greatly bothered itself about releasing
from the county jail Pedro Delgado, the
county clerk held by Judge Seeds as in
contempt of court and for whose release
on bail application was made three weeks
ago.

Speaking of Mr.. Waddingham, principal
owner of the great Cash Entry mines in
south Santa Fe county and who is soon
to visit Santa Fe, the Kansas City Times
says this:
"Wilson Waddingham, one of the ten
time millionaires OF the country, is in the
city and is stopping at the Midland. He
arrived yesterday morning and will be
here few days. He owns considerable
real estate in the city and suburbs and is
looking after his interests. He has great
faith in Kansas City and may make some
more investments here. Mr.. Wadding-
ham owns several mines, is an extensive
cattle raiser and has the largest tract of
land in New Mexico owned by any one
man. He registers from New York, but
has probably the most costly home in the
United States at New Haven, Conn"

Whatever NAV be thought of the fighting
material of which the Government and insur-
gent land forces in Chill are composed, and
from all accounts these land forces are of
very motley character, there is no room for
disputing either the skill or the bravery of
the crews that man the different lron-clads
and torpedo boats which are operating on
either side in the present contest. A full and
detailed report has now been received Of the
manner in which the Blanco Encalada, one of
the most formidable iron-clads in the world,
was sunk in Caldera Bay, and the story is one
that reflects the highest degree of credit upon
the determined spirit which was exhibited by
the parties engaged in the battle, whether in
defense or in attack
On the night of April ODD the Encalada was
lying in the harbor of Caldera, town which
had been recently captured by the insurgents.
The opportunity was seized by two torpedo
boats which belonged to the Government,
and which had been following in the wake of
the insurgent iron-clad, to approach her under
cover of darkness and drive torpedo at her
hulk. The torpedo boats, which were armed
with Hotchkiss revolving guns well
torpedos, were at once observed. and immedi-
ately terrific fire was opened by the iron
clad Torpedo after torpedo was discharged
by the torpedo boats, but for long time
without success. In the interval, rapid and
heavy fire was in progress which swept the
decks of torpedo boat and iron-clad alike. but
without sensibly affecting the ardor shown by
the combatants.
After a number of torpedoes had been sent
out both by the Encalada and the two regular
torpedo boats, finally torpedo discharged by
the Almirante Lynch struck the Encaado be-
meath the water line, and blew large hole in
her side. AS the great iron-clad began to set
tie, the heavy fire of the torpedo boats was
sustained under which one-half of the re-
naming crew of the Encalada persisted. The
other half threw themselves into the sea,
where the larger number were devoured by
sharks.
HPrevious to the fight in which the Encalada
was destroyed, she had been steaming up and
down the Chilan coast in the society of her
consort, the O'Higgins. The two had been
engaged in many combats with insurgent
vessels, in which the most resolute courage
was displayed on both sides, the number of
killed being very large on account Of the ex-
tent TO which the insurgent tugs, sloops of
war and torpedo boats exposed themselves in
order to secure the destruction of such for
midable antagonist as the Encalada, which
was carrying ruin into the towns on the coast
held by the insurgents
The removal of the Encalada by torpedo
is rendered less significant by the fact that at
the time she was sunk, she was unprotected
by her steel netting, there not being time in
the confusion of the first attack, which was
unexpected, to throw around her hull this
means of defense.

Navy Yard Civil Service Reform.
Now York Herald.l


II appears from the report of the board OF
naval officers appointed to examine APP
plicants for the places of foreman and master
mechanics in the New York navy yard that,
although they examined about fifty candidates
and selected the best of the lot for appoint
ment. they were not satisfied with the
knowledge and ability of several OF those
whose appointment they recommended;
In other words the successful candidates
are not. in some instances. such men as
private ship-builder would place in their DO
sitiOns.
The board intimates that insufficient pay
is responsible for the lack Of efficiency OF
the applicants. 49,.
While this reason may have had something
10 do with the efficiency. it IS more likely that
the insecurity of tenure of office had more TO
do with it. The best men cannot afford to
work for the Government as long as they are
liable TO be struck" for campaign funds and
TO be dismissed without reason or explanation
on the demand of political ''heelers." When
it is known that navy-yard positions are per
manent during efficiency and good behavior
the best mechanics will come forward in
greater numbers to get the maynard places
Secretary Tracys plan seems likely to secure
this result.

GENERAL.

The reelection of Mr. Call to the position
which he has so long occupied as one of the
senators from Florida will be regarded with
very general satisfaction in the South He
was warmly antagoniZed by a faction in the
Florida Legislature. whose hostility to him
was based on his persistent advocacy
of the Land Grant Forfeiture bill
in Congress. which would deprive the
Pensacola and Atlantic Railway Company of
its title to large areas of land, and on his hay-
ing stopped the passage of the Indian War
Claims bill in the Senate, measure which
would have placed about five or six hundred
thousand dollars in the State Treasury as re-
Endorsements from the General Government
for the maintenance of the Indian war in
Florida.
In his opposition othese measures Senator
Call was influenced by his sense of public
duty alone, and his reelection after a strug-
gle that was very prolonged and determined,
is q distinct personal triumph. Mr. Call by
his course in the Senate has won high repu-
tation for ability and for devotion TO the in
terests of the South, Independently of State
lines and his return TO that body is Il CON-
phment TO which he was justly entitled at the
hands of the Florida Legislature.

II would be unjust. however, TO charge the
h,1ders with systematic negligence IN tne
,,ror,;ses On the contrary. the precautions
.rhicb have been taken by them have been
very general, but an oversight on the part Oh
onv one builder in any special instance OF III
numerous series of instances might lead 10
loss Of valuable property and even lives
which would create most unfavoraole I'M
pression upon the public conscience OF the
community.
There is another aspect of this question OF
minimizing the dangers that lurk III
street distractions which is deserving OF
careful attention. Reference is made TO the
fact that the builders of this city not infre-
quently occupy greater portion of the street
with their building materials than they are
absolutely entitled 20 under the terms OF the
ordinance relating to this privilege Only
well-defined section Of the street is allowed
them by law. and any encroachment beyond
these limits is distinct violation OF the right
granted them TO raise distractions IN the
nature of lumber, stone and mortar.
To all who have occasion to pass along our
principal thoroughfares in vehicles or on
horseback, the lobstructlons that exist IN the
form of builders materials are source OF Sc
rious inconvenience, not only from the extent
to which they block up the streets, making
collisions most imminent, but also from the
fact that they are often Of nature to brighten
horses and therefore to cause the latter to shy
and even to run away.
Such distractions are very naturally and
very properly regarded with leniency by the
public, if for no other reason because they are
unavoidable in the erection of houses, but at
the same time no enlargement of the privilege
beyond the limits of its legal enjoyment
should for moment be permitted.
1t is as much in failnre to comply with the
ordinance as to what extent of the street they
can rightly use that the builders are culpable
as in failure to place the necessary lights on
their materials after night has fallen. The
proposed ordinance to correct any dereliction
on their part in this respect, however, is emf
nently just and proper, and we trust that it
will be followed up by the most rigid enforce
ment of the ordinance, which restricts within
certain reasonable limits the ground in the
open streets which is allowed builders for the
use of their materials
