CHANGE OF QUARTERS.

The Patent once Models to He Placed in
the Union Building.
Secretary Hoke Smith before his departure
from the city appro we'd the recommendations
of the Interior Department committee relative
TO changes in the quarters Of clerks Of the land
Office and the removal Of the models Of patents
from the upper floors of the main building, as
published in yesterdays STAR.
The work Of removing the models will be
commenced on Monday next. and they will be
arranged for exhibition upon the second and
third floors Of the Union building on G street.
The lower portion Of this building is occupied
by the city post Office and the upper portion
by the record and pension division Of the War
Department
No danger is apprehended from the storage
of the models. The building can stand
weight Of eighty-hve pounds to the square
foot and the models will only impose q weight
OF twenty-seven pounds to the square foot.
When the corridors of the main building are
thus cleared Of the presence of these useless
models the clerks of the land Office now occupy
ing outlying buildings rented by the depart
ment will be moved into the main building and
made more comfortable. 1t is also probable
that the documents on storage in the upper
story will be moved down into the basement
and clerks now occupying badly ventilated and
dark rooms in the basement will come upstairs.

The President has approved the report of the
examining board in the case of Commander
George W. Wood of the navy. and that officer
has been dismissed the service with one year 8
pay. The board reported that he was person.
ally and morally disqualified for promotion. II
sent to sea his rank entitled him to a command,
and this his superiors were afraid to trust him
with. He stood fifth on the list of commanders,
and had he passed his examination would have
been promoted to captain
Commander Wood has not been to sea since
1875, when he a lieutenant commander,
and he is the only officer Of the
navy who has gone through one grade
while on shore duty. For many years he
has been stationed at the Norfolk navy
yard and when he came up for promotion II
few days ago objection was made to passing
him on account of his long service ashore.
Two members of the board reported against
his Advancement and the third member, Capt.
Howell. favored it. Commander Wood in de-
fense, said that he had repeatedly requested
the department for duty, but was always
refused, without any reason being assigned
He says that because of his having remained on
shore for the last seventeen years the depart
ments should not deprive him of promotion,
especially as it was through no fault Of his own.

THE UNION BUILDING
Report of the Army Board That Exam.
ined Its Security.
1t Was Considered Safe for the Purposes
Contemplated and Two Floors Recon-
mended to Be Secured.

The board of officers, consisting Of Quarter
master General R. N. Rtchelder, Surgeon Gen
eral Geo. NJ. sternberg and Capt John G. d.
knight, corps Of engineers, appointed to ex-
anime the Union building, rendered for the
temporary use Of the record and pension Office
Of the War Department, has made the report
in regard to that building, in which they say:
The building was examined from foundation
to roof and drawings relating thereto were in
spected at the Office of Mr.. Appleton P. Clark,
jr., architect, who designed and superintended
the erection. Mr.. Clark has made a statement
in writing that each Of the three upper floors
(the fourth, fifth and SIXTH is capable Of
sustaining q uniformly distributed load Of
I60 tons of 1000 pounds each, or of
13 tons per section: but that should heavy cases
be placed on these floors they should be ar
ranged east and west between the columns
directly above the main girders. and the load
to tons, while simultaneous uniformly dis
tributed load Of forty pounds per square foot
might be placed over the floor.
The available floor space of each story is 18, =
0S0 square feet which the board deems suf-
fcient to accommodate 800 men and their
desks. As there are fifty-nine floor sections,
this allows about five men and their desks to a
bCCtAous WhiCh IL AS ucucNCu Whi eatCiy bupPoie
26 900 pounds uniformly distributed
The board therefore finds the Union build
ing safe for tfe purposes contemplated. and
that the two upper floors, viz, the fifth and
sixth, should be acquired for these purposes.
The report is accompanied by letter dated
June l3. 1898, from Mr.. Thomas b. Entwistle,
inspector of buildings. certifying that the
Union building was constructed In accordance
with the building regulations Of the District of
Columbia and under the supervision Of his
office, and that the strength of its parts was
computed and found to be sufficient

The Bureau OF Immigration Will Not Rule
in Advance.
Superintendent Stump Of the bureau of immi-

give permit in advance for the landing Of
$500 Hebrews from abroad. The request was
preferred by S ]. Klein, who represents syn
dictate engaged in the colonization Of 200 600
acres of land in Utah. This land was purchased
some time ago. divided up into small farms and
then Mr.. Klein undertook to settle it For this
purpose he went abroad and is Bessarabia and
Roumania succeeded in inducing 800 Hebrews
to agree to come to United States and take up
the Utah land. Upon applying to the steam
ship lines in Germany and France for trans
portation it was refused unless permit in ad-
vance was obtained from the United States gov
ernment The steamship lines pointed out the
stringent emigration rules now in force IN the
United States and the risk they took in ship
ping immigrants. who might be returned at
their expense. Superintendent Stump informed
Mr.. Klein that he would not relieve the steam
ship companies Of the responsibilities under
which they are now of shipping only desirable
immigrants. If they come they would be sub
ject to all the requirements Of inspection pro-
vided by law, and those rejected, if any, would
be returned to Europe at the expense of the
steamship lines transporting them.

Undergoing Her Preliminary Trial at the
Brooklyn Navy Yard.
The armored cruiser Maine is now undergo
ing the preliminary trial Of her machinery at
the Brooklyn navy yard The test embraced the
running of both the main and auxiliary engines
and was satisfactory so far as it went The
official trial of the engines will not take place
for a week yet. The builders OF the engines find
that more preliminary testing is necessary than
was originally counted on. These dock trials
will have some interest for the public, since
the record of horse power achieved. compared
with that which was planned and contracted
for, will give forecast of the speed that may
be expected when the vessel goes on her sea
trial trip later in the season. Her collective in
dicsted horse power is intended to be 5000 and
her speed to be seventeen knots. The Maine.
in fact, though far surpassed by our armored
vessels of more recent design, will be a valu-
able vessel to our navy. With her good speed.
her twelve inches OF armor. both on the sides
and barbettes, and eight inches on she turrets.
and her four ten-inch and six six-inch guns, she
need fear nothing in her own class. As the first
of our new vessels built in a navy yard, al
though with her motive machinery furnished by
contract, her degree Of success will be watched
with interest.
