CAN SAVE MONEY.
Mare Island Navy Yard Capable
of Doug Repair Work of
High Order.
Boilers OF the Coast Defense Yes
sci Monterey in an Excel
lent Condition.

WASHINGTON, May &c. = Secretary
Herbert has given his approval to the
findings and recommendations made by
Capt. Matthews. as the result of his in
spection of Mare Island Cali navy
yard. The secretary is gratitied at the
nature of the report, as it enables him
to carry out plan which he has cher
ished as In the line of economy and as
calculated to build up the important
naval interests on the Pacific coast. Capt.
Matthews found that the plant and
equipment of the yard were of the first
quality, and capable of doing repair
thoroughly skilled. Careful calculation
shows that the cost of work there will
compare very favorably with that done
in the East. when due allowance is
made for the distance. Consequently,
Secretary Herbert announces that here
after he will order all repair work. not
only for the Pacific station, but also for
the vessels of the ASlatc station, to be
done at the Mare Island navy yard.
Heretofore it has been the practice of
the department to order the ASiatic YES
sells to proceed to the Atlantic coast for
repairs. but the report of Capt. Mat
thews shows that the work can really
be more economically done at Mare
Island when the cost of transportation
is taken into account.
Capt. Matthews. also by the direction
of the secretary, closely inspected the
coast defense vessel Monterey, in view
Of the reports that her boilers had been
ruined Oh her trial trip. He found that
there was no basis for the reports, and
that the vessel was in excellent condi-
ton. There were some small leaks in
| tube connections, but these were IN
significant, ana were nothing more than
are incident to boilers of all types which
have been severely tested.

Calvin D. Bissel, head bookkeeper
for the Cargill Elevator company, shot
himself IN the water closet of the cham
Der of commerce about O'Clock yester-
day afternoon. The ball passed through
his head, probably from the muzzle
of the revolver held i'll his
mouth, and killed him instantly. The
cause of the deed is supposed to be de-
spondency resulting from a chronic
nervous diseose or disorder. The sui
eide was not a speculator, and his re-
lations with his employers have always
been most satisfactory. Several months
ago he showed signs of mental depreS-
sion to such degree that it was thought
best to have him examined by physi-
clan. DR.. Keogh was called, and he
pronounced the man sufferer from
A Nervous Disease
that might drive him to do something
rash. The doctor advised that he be
watched, and his employers did watch
him accordingly. They allowed him to
take vacation with full pay, and sent
him to Hot Springs. Then they sent
HIM into Dakota, and the trip seemed to
benefit him a good deal. He returned to
the city about month ago and said he
was much better. He asked that he be
allowed to 90 to work, and some light
labor was given him last week. This
afternoon he showed unmiStakable
signs of worse condition than ever,
and when he returned from lunch he
went straight to the toilet room on the
fifth floor of the chamber of commerce
and ended his life. The shot sounded
like the slamming of a door, and he was
not discovered until an emplOye of one
of the Offices happened to smell the pow
der smoke. The deceased was acqnaint-
ed with nearly everybody in the cham
Der of commerce.
He Was Divorced
about year ago on account of incom-
patibility. He had no children. Before
he entered the employ of the Carglll
company he was employed by Seymour,
Sabin q Co.. in Saltwater, and he Sc
cured the position he had at his death
with the assistance of w. j. Bishop, Of
Bishopp d RidgWay. S. ID. Cargill
stated that BiSSell was about forty-eight
years of age and very steady in his
habits. He had been the company's
head bookkeeper for eight years. Mr..
Bishop SAID that the deceased had
very narrow escape from death in the
same manner through dependency
when he was living in Kalamazoo about
twelve years ago. The revolver used
was new, and of medium caliber. AS
he never carried weapon of any kind,
it is supposed that he bought the re-
volver especially for the purpose of kill
ing himself. The coroner took charge
of the remains.
