GREAT NAVAL REVIEW.
A Hitherto Little Talked of
Worlds Fair Feature.

WASHINGTON, March 20.-One of the
most popular and appropriate features
of the coming Quadro centennial cele
bration in honor of the discovery Of
America and the achievements of Co
lumbus, the navigator, is the proposed
grand review of the navies of the world
in Hampton roads and New York har-
Dor. The promotion of this review has
for several reasons been neglected. The
exposition management have considered
it outside of their Jurisdiction, and con-
gress has thus far failed to appro-
pirate any money TO pay the eX-
penses incident to such review.
To remedy this defect and put into run
ming order movement of such interest
and Importance to the whole Atlantic
seabOard, citizens committee, called
board of promotion, has been
organized in this city. The presi-
dent of the board is Hon. }.
l.. M. Curry, late envoy eXtraOrdi-
nary and minister plenipotentiary
of the United States, at Madrid. In an
interview tonight with Post reporter,
Mr.. Anderson, the author OF the review
movement, related number of interest
ing facts pertaining to the plan and scope
of this proposed review. The exercises

auspices of the government.
The work of the board will end
when it has secured the cooperation of
the boards of trade and cities of the At
lantic and gulf coasts. and the necessary
legislation by congress. Mr.. Anderson
said he had a letter from Assistant
Secretary Solely giving a list of
the United States vessels expected
to take part in the review.
This list included the following:
New York, Maine, Puritan, Monterey,
Amphitrite, Miantonomah, Monadnock,
Terror, Harbor defense ram, Cruiser
No. 6, Chicago, Baltimore, Philadelphia,
Newark, San Francisco, Charleston,
Cruiser No. IL, Montgomery, Detroit,
boat No. 6. practice cruiser, Boston.
Atlanta, Yorktown, Concord, Benn
ington, Petrol, Torpedo Boat No. l,
Torpedo Boat No. 2. In addition to
these vessels, the assistant secretary
gave list OF wooden ships which will
also probably be in commission at the
time of the review: Lancaster, IroQuois,
Yantic, Jamestown, Marion, Thetis,
Adams, Alliance, Kearsarge, MonOnga-
hela, Mohican, Essex, Portsmouth. Mr..
Anderson said he thought the review
would be a standing advertisement for
the exposition from the time the fleet
leaves Europe until the guests reach
Chicago.

The Senate's subcommittee In

WASHINGTON. March 20.-The sub
committee Of the senate finance COM
mittee, which has been for some months
prosecuting an inquiry in the effects of
the tariffs, past and present,upon wages
and cost of living. are nearing the end
of their labors. The tangible result of
the investigation will be an exhaustive
compilation of figures comprising In all
nearly 5,000,0 600 quotations, covering all
parts of the country, and extending
over period coincident with the exist
ence of the tariff. The figures used in
the report were obtained by personal
inquiry by agents of the bureau of la
Dor, operating in seventy different
cities scattered all over the country, and
they represent in every instance actual
cash transactions, not the statement OF
commercial OF other reports. The sub
committee have5 practically concluded
their inquiry, but before their report ON
this branch of the subject is concluded,
they may visit several places for per-
SODal examination, but this is not GER
tain. In addition to the general inves::
tigatiOn of the effect of operations of
PAObSNtifS toAllos tiiN

CATION of the workings OF the
Mckinley law. For this purpose
they selected POI different articles which
it was unanimously agreed. fairly COW
cred the range of ordinary expenses of
family whose income ranged from $500
to $1,000 year. Besides these the cost
of building material was taken into
consideration as having influence on
the cost of rent to those who do not own
their homes. OF the prices of these
various articles the subcommittee have
secured quotations covering the period
of eighteen months incident to the pas
sage of the Mckinley bill, and for
year subsequent thereto, from month
to month at the seventy different
points of inquiry covered by the
bureau of labor. What the re-
suits of the inquiry and tabulatiOn of
figures will show will not be stated un-
til the subcommittee has prepared its
report, which it cannot do until the
tables have been printed and the matter
is in a form for consideration. Numer-
GUS requests have been made for the
information obtained by the sub-cOm-
mittee by representatives III congress
for use in their tariff speeches, but the
members of the subcommittee do not
desire to have the matter 20 out in
plecemeal that way, and it will not be
made public until presented in the re-
port.

who still persists in calling himself

the same man who lived at Windsor, a
suburb of Melbourne, under the name

lating showing that the past life of

of talk to the assembled
girls. She said she had reason to

little Anna, too, upon her head. Most
of the inmates burst into tears, for the
child had won the hearts Of even the
criminal women in the prison. A little
later, Minnie johnson, one of the three
girls who had been suspected of start

latter went to her cell, and she there

WASHINGTON, March 20.-The South
ern tour OF Senator Hill came to close
by the arrival of the purity in this city
at II a. N. today. Senator Hill ex-
pressed great qualification at the hos
pitable manner in which he was re-
ceived throughout the South, and does
not conceal his pleasure over the enthu-
siasm which his visit aroused in Georgia,
Alabama and Mississippi. Numerous
invitations have been received by Sena-
tor Hill within the past week to visit
various Western and Southwestern
cities, and he is being strongly urged to
make tour later on through the West
and Southwest. Senator Hill has no
plans for the immediate future. He ex-
poets to remain in Washington for some
time, attending to his duties in the SEN
ate. He says that he has not accepted
any invitation to address the Hill club
at ST. Louis, and probably will not be
able to accept it.
Senator Hill is considering all invita-
ton to address the students of the
University of Virginia on Jefferson's
birthday. He will probably accept it.
