Tho library Architect.
fNorfo1k Landmark.

So far as we have seen the opinion OF
the State press is in favor of reconsidera-
ton of the vote by which the non-resi-
dent architect was chosen for the State
Library, or any.architect at oil at the pres
ent time when there was such an impor-
tant division in the board. The people
have a right to expect unanimous action
upon a subject of that character, Snd
when strong protests are made by the Gov
ernor, Auditor. and the architects OF Viz
gina who desire to compete for the work
There is certainly every reason to expect
the three gentleman. who made narrow
majority OF one, to allow the matter to be
reopened. Harmony is desirable in the
board.

We Join the Norfolk Landmark in urging
the Board Of Visitors of the Virginia Mill
tary Institute to give the corps OF cadets
leave to visit Richmond at the time OF the
unwilling Of the A. p. HILL statue.

will return to their studies with new ar
dor; their parents and guardians will not
object: the people of Richmond will be
overlooked to see them. and. finally. their
appearance here is due tho dignity OF
the occasion-due the great and modest
general whose statue Is to be unveiled.

IN TIME OF WAR.
Senator Hale Would Prepare for the Next
One.

WAsHINGToN, Jan. 26.-The bill in
troduced by Senator Hale yesterday
is of special interest in view OF the
Chilian imbroelio. For the purpose
of increasing the naval establishment
the bill authorizes the president to
have constructed by contract three
battle ships of $500 to 10000 tons
displacement, two armed coast de-
tense vessels, five gun boats of 500 to
to l 200 tons displacement, and eight
first-class torpedo boats. In the con-
tracts for the construction OF these
vessels such provisions for increased
speed and premiums therefor shall be
made as in the discretion of the secre-
tary OF the navy may be deemed ad-
visable. In their construction the
provisions OF the act OF Aug. 3, 1889,
for an increase of the naval establish
ment shall be observed, save that in
all their parts the vessels shall be of
domestic manufacture. If the secre-
tary of the navy should be unable to
contract at reasonable prices for the
building OF any of these vessels, the
bill provides that he may build such
vessels or any part thereof in the
navy yards to be designated by the
secretary. Towards the construction
of the vessels with their engines, boil
ers and machinery $4,000, 900 is ap-
and towards their arma-
ment 81 100000.

THE SENTIMENT IN CHILL.
Feeling Of Friendship for America and
Americans Prevailing in that
Country.

SANTIAGO DE CHILL, Jan. 30-A
special dispatch to the Associated
Press says: Late Thursday last a very
brief synopsis OF President Harrison's
second message to the American con-
gress relative to Chili's position in the
dispute with the United States was re-
ceived here and in q short time the
news spread through the city that
there was no further danger of war,
the tenor OF the brief tslegraphic re-
ports showing the United States was
willing to accept Chili's apology.
President Harrison's first message
had caused great excitement here
where its warlike utterances were
thoroughly discussed in cafes and
other places OF public resort, but the
second message caused a revulsion of
feeling and people generally became
much calmer and expressions OF salts
faction were heard that the affair that
the dispute had been amicably settled
through diplomatic channels. For
the first time in four months the
Chilian press is publishing respectful
comments concerning Egan, the United
States minister, and other American
officials, who have heretofore been OBJ
jects of many vituperative attacks,
and it is thought Gillian newspapers
will henceforth be more circumspect in
their utterances regarding America
and Americans. Congress adjourned
today.

Kept Ont Of It.

Some of Ex-Governor Foraker's dis
appointed friends have charged that
Governor Mckinley used his influence
during the senatorial contest in the in
terest OF Senator Sherman and against
Governor Foraker. Chairman Hahn,
of the Republican committee in Ohio,
who conducted Sherman's campaign,
denies this i'm the most positive terms.
He says that Governor Mckinley did
not exert his influence for either of the
candidates, but kept his
hands of. 1t is also known that the
member OF legislature from Governor
McKinley's district thought to save
save the governor from embarrment
when he heard these stories by voting
for Mckinley for senator. He argued
that by so doing me would show to the
legislature from Nick inley's home,
and as a personal friend OF the COVER
ernor, that the governor was not tax
ing sides. When this action was tele-
graphed to Mckinley the messenger
found him in the barber shop with
ons-half of his face shaved He read
the message, stopped the barber, and
wrote reply at once. In this he told
the young member plainly that he was
not a candidate for senator, that
there were but two Republican candi-
dates, and every member of the legis-
lature should be honest enough to
vote for either Foraker or Sherman.
IL he knew how his district stood on
this question he should vote that way,
but there should be no use OF his name
for dodging.
This was the way frank and cour.
ageous man spoke his sentiments and
prevented the use of his name, where
he might have been used to defeat one
or the other of the candidates before
the caucus. Chairman Hahn's denial
was not necessary to those who know
the present governor of Ohio; Hs
never fights as bushwhacker. He IL
always open in his warfare. Foraker
and his friends know that as well al
any one in Ohio.-Inter-Ocean.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent. !

From Our Regular Correspondent
WAsHINsToN Jan. 2S, 1892.
Secretary Blaine and the president are in
perfect accord, as they have been from the
first, Notwithstanding sensational state
ments to the contrary. Mr.. Blaine's at
tack of nausea at the cabinet meeting,
which necessitated his leaving before the
meeting closed, and which prevented his
attending the presidents first state dinner
of the season to his cabinet, was made the
basis of lots of stories even more senseless
than those usually told by the men who
are trying so hard to stir up strife between
these two friends, and they were all ex-
ploded by the fact that Mr.. Blaine enter
tanned the president and several members
of the cabinet at dinner the very next
night.
The Democrats of the house again showed
how insincere they are in 'etending to be
in favor of real economy in running the
government when they defeated the bill to
reform many abuses now existing in the
printing, binding and distribution of pub
lie documents. This bill was far from
being perfect, but il enacted into law it
would have put an end to some OF the
most fragrant abuses which have gradually
crept into the present system, and would
have saved the government something like
half a million dollars year now wasted
in the printing OF superfluous public docu-
ments which eventually find their way into
the hands of the junk man.
Never before have SO many bills on mat
Sc
been introduced In an entire session of con-
gress as have already been introduced at
the present session. 1t looks as though all
the cranky ideas of the period have been
turned into bills and poured into the con-
gressional hopper. OF course everybody.
including their authors, knows that about
ninety mine out OF every | undred of these
bills will never again be heard from.
The national Democratic committee met
here last week for the purpose OF ratifying
the choice made long ago by bosses Hill,
German and Brice OF the place for holding
the Democratic national convention.
There was lots of kicking among the dele
cations from the cities turned down, and
several membt rs Of the national committee
have had the nerve to protest against the
rough-shod manner in which these bosses
override everybody's wishes but their
own, but they will go right on following
these same bosses.
1t is already evident that the policy OF
the Democratic majority in the house is to
do as little possible at the present ses-
sion of congress. The Mills men charged
during the speakership campaign that such
would be the policy Of the majority il Crisp
was elected. The senate is away ahead OF
the house, having already passed a number
Of bills, but with the most important busi-
ness of the session-the appropriation bills
it can do nothing until the house has
passed the bills, which must be originated
in the house.
The only that Senator Hill has done
since he was sworn in WAS to head fac
tious opposition against the confirmation
Of a Republican postmaster at Elmira,
New York, to succeed one OF his henchmen.

Whist in Washington.

Whist is all the rage in Washington
this winter. 1t is fashionable not SIM
ply to play whist, but to play it scien-
tifically, or at least to think you do.
Mrs. Harrison and her daughter are
learning, n large number OF senator's
and representatives wives are enthus-
iastic in the game, and a bright little
woman from Boston, a Miss Clapp, is
making hay while the sun shines. She
is professional teacher of whist ac-
cording to Cavendish. Her charges
are two dollars q lesson, and she
teaches four persons in a class. That
makes eight dollars per lesson. But
she gives three and sometimes four les
sons per day, and Miss Clapp's income
from whist is at the rate of 5 so per
week
