The Expenditures for the Fiscal Year End

Display nt Hampton Roads In
April-1hc Military Post.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-The secretary
of war, in his annual report, recon-
mends the revival of the grade of lieu
tenant general The interests of the
nation demand that the administration
Of military affairs shall be attended
with dignity and authority. TO this
end it is necessary that the command
Ing general should be conspicuously
superior in rank to all subordinates.
Experience has shown that rank, as
well as command, is essential TO give
proper effect to authority in any mill
tary organization of Importance Ac-
cordingly, it is recommended that the
lieutenant generalcy be revived as per-
manentgrade of army rank The immedi-
ate effect of legislation in this behalf
would, 1t is assumed, create promo
ton at the head of the army by the ad-
vancement of the sanior major-general,
who, by reason of brilliant achieve
ments in war and long and dis
tinguished services, is eminently en-
titled to such recognition. This view
of the case, although appealing strong
ly to individual feelings is regarded
as incidental only to the main argu-
ment, which is advanced exclusively
upon the broad basis public of expedi-
ency.
The expenditures for the fiscal year
ended June 30, 1892, are as follows:
Salaries and contingent expenses. s2,OlG,545 65

Among the important events of this
great year of jubilee will be the naval
display at Hampton Roads in April next
There will doubtless be a great gather
ering of the naval officers of the ma
tions. In certain SENSE they will be
our guests. The war department has
an important military post and school
at Fort Monroe, and should be in a con-
dition to do it's full share in making
this great success. An appropriation
of $4,000 for this purpose is recon-
mended.
In conclusion, Secretary Ell1ins ex-
presses his gratitude to the president
for many acts of forbearance and kind
ness, and his thanks to the major
general commanding the army and to
the heads OF the different bureaus OF
the department for valuable assistance,
all Of which has tended to make the
performance of his duties pleasant and
agreeable.

A GOTHAM YOUNG MAN.
He Went to Liverpool but Came Ba
Much Sooner Thul He Expected.

He Went to Liverpool but Came Back
Much Sooner Thun He Expected.
A pretty good story comes from New
York. 1t appears that a son of wealthy
parents in Manhattan Island came of
age recently, and correspondingly ac-
quired a generous wad of the long
green securities of the realm While he
was a pretty lively youth, he also had
well-deined stratum OF good sense run
ming through his composition, and upon
finding himself possessed of plenty of
means he determined to use a portion
of it in seeing the world. He also
adopted rather novel idea regarding
the way he would travel. He was too
fond of New York to leave it for any
length OF time, so he decided he would
take in one country at time; spend q
month in England, for instance, come
back here, then visit France, and so on.
Accordingly he purchased himself a
ticket to Liverpool under the arrange
ment in vogue with steamship COM
panies, which allows person to GO
over on a certain steamer and to come
back on the same boat on any of its re-
turn trips within Il specified time He
sailed away in great shape, and in due
time arrived in Liverpool, city he in
tended to explore thoroughly.
Following the advice of experienced
friends, he secured private lodgings in
preference to going to Il hotel, and
then, sad to relate, as a preliminary to
his sightseeing he proceeded to test
the qualities of dogs head ale and Old
Tom gin in the home of its birth. The
mixture acted disastrously in his case,
for in n short while he became as drunk
as the apocryphal owl He became
helpless in legs, body aud head, and
while in this condition attracted the at
tention of two "bobbies." The English
policeman always takes drunken man

Poisoned Five People.
SPRINGFIELD, O., Dec. 3.--EIenry Lau-
denlager, seedy looking man, came
into police headquarters Friday morn
ing and gave himself up for murder,
claiming that his conscience drove him
to the act. In the last 25 years he
claims to have poisoned five people, all
of whom died. They were as follows:

five years ago. Barbara Killcrease, Ma

years ago. John Laudenlager, his

A CHANCE FOR SCHOLARS.
- Hundred Dollars Reward for the Verl
fication of Biblical Translation.

Il Hundred Dollars Reward for the Veri-
ticatiOn of "a Biblical Translation.
CINCINNATI. Dec. 5.--Benjamin At
,lins, of Milford, who claims to be u
great Latin and Greek scholar, says he
found numerous cases wherein the sense
of the Bible has been purposely changed
in the process of translation. To sub
stantiate in single instance the truth
OF his statement, he addresses the fol-
lowing to the public and to Lane sem
mary especially:
ANY Greek scholar who will trans.
late Luke XXvi-21, and make the trans
lation read as our English version reads
will receive 500 for the task. No words
are to be omitted in the translation.
The English of the lines to which
refer read: Besides all this, to-day is
the third day since these were done. {"
DR.. Atkins says this version is q
fraud, and designedly so, too, and that
yet it is read in our churches as the in
spired word of God. Competitors for
the 500 are to address the reverend gem
tleman at box 36, this city.

Ice Bound for Two Years.

PHILADELPHIA, Dec 3,-The steamer
Fonair has arrived at this port from
Rotterdam. During her voyage she fell
in with the whaling bark A. T. Tucker,
Capt. Baker, which had been nearly
two years out. Nearly all of this
time the bark was inclosed in
ice in Hudson's bay, entirely shut
in from the outside world, The bark
was in fairly good shape and the sailors
all healthy, notwithstanding their long
siege. All of them were very hungry
for news, however, and Capt Willis, of
the Fonar lowered one of his boats and
sent the barlS's crew load of newspa-
pers and miscellaneous literature.

FOR SAFETYS SAKE.

Surgeon Geueral Wyman VIII Recommend
That Immigration should BE suspended
for Year Mt Least.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-Surgeon Gen.
Wyman, of the Marine hospital service,
in his annual report to the secretary
of the treasury, will recommend, so it
is said, as a measure of safety to
the country during the progress
of the Worlds Columbian ex-
position that immigration be
suspended for at least one year from
the 1st of January next. This is based
on the prediction of sanitary experts
that cholera is almost certain to reap
pear in European countries next spring.
1t is regarded as almost certain that the
secretary of the treasury will indorse
the proposition as a part of his general
plan for the establishment of national
quarantine service.

Mhnt Caused tho Earthauake?

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Dec. 5.-Great
mystery susrounds the earthquake
shock felt here Friday morning 1t
turns out to have been entirely local.
Local scientists are much puzzled.
While some hold that it was caused by
the caving in of the roof of subterra-
mean limestone cavern, others deny that
cavern would have caused such
shock without a large sinking of the
crust of the earth. Nearly all other
theories for local tremors OF the earth
have been assigned as the cause Some
faint-hearted ones suggest that hid
den volcano under Lookout mountain
is ready to burst forth.

NEW YORK, Dec 8. Jay Gould died at
9;l6 Friday morning. The direct cause
Of Mr.. Gould's DEATH as stated at the
house Friday morning, was pulmonary
consumption.
The scene at the house at midnight
was not extraordinary. 1t was stated
at that time that the strong master
mind had ceased to battle for life. His
children were at his bedside and they
recognized that the hopes of the past
few days were vanishing and that the
end was not far off. They tearfully adj
mitted this to a few close personal
friends, and then began the vigil which
only ceased when the last breath left
the body.
