The former will journey to Wilmington to in

THE SHERMAN LAW.
Representative Robertson Tells why He is

Representative Robertson Ieils why he Is
in Favor of Its Repeal.
Representative Robertson Of Louisiana. who
is at present in Washington. saws he is in favor
of the repeal of the Sherman law if some means
of providing gradual increase of the nation s
currency can be substituted for ii. He said to
a STAR reporter today:
Il am in favor of the democratic plat
form on the question of finance. which

parity with each other and the change in
the national banking laws which will re-
suit in the repeal Of the 10 per cent tax upon

of the Sherman act unless IL Is coupled with some
provisions 20 increase the circulation either by

other equitable adjustment of the silver

and would leave without any means
whatever of increasing the currency. We
need money. such a money that our peo-
pie at home can reap the benefits OF 1t

i believe this can be brought about by
a repeal OF the 10 per cent tax on state circu-
lation- In order to secure a uniform system
OF banking throughout the several states M

that there Is any danger of repetition

THE CRUISER DETROIT.
Curious Condition of Things discovered
When Put Into DRY Dock.

The case OF the cruiser Detroit now under
going final inspection at Baltimore preparatory
to her acceptance by the government, is a
curious one. When put in dry dock for clean
ing and painting few DAYS ago it was found
that the blades of both screws of the vessel
were broken, bent or cracked. One blade Of
one OF the screws Was broken half off and
another blade o. the same screw was cracked
and badly bent. OF the other screw one blade
was broken eff entirely and two were cracked
and beat
TIE CONDITIONS NOT SUSPECTED
The condition of the screws not known
and hardly suspected until the propellers were
exposed to view in the dock. The contractors
believe that the blades were broken during the
trial Of the ship. which fact contributes to the
other remarkable features of the trip. The
builders remark on the good showing of the
ship during the trial with the injured screws
There is little the indicator cards and other
engine room records to show when the injury
to the blades took place. So far as can be
Judged from the performances of the machinery,
the contractors think the damage TO one screw
occurred within the first fifteen minutes Of the
four-hour run. and the break in the other as the
Detroit turned on her return trip. ThIs turn
was made abruptly. and it was feared at the
time that damage wolld result from the sud-
denness of putting the vessel about
II was observed that the ship would have
made greater speed if the Detroit had been al
lowed to make the turn in twenty-five instead
OF ten minutes. The ship made within four
hundredths Of eighteen and three-quarter
knots, and il il now believed that mad the
screws remased in good condition the con-
tractors would have made nineteen knots,
which would have netted them $50 600
no FURTHER TRIAL LIKELY.
Notwithstanding the promise of better re-
suits with perfect screws. it is not likely that
the vessel will have another trial. The last
trial insures her acceptance with good bonus
to the builders for excess OF speed require
ments. Another trial would be at the expense
of the contractors and the increased results in
themstter of speed might not possibly justify the
consequent expense. The damaged screws are
composed of manganese bronze and were made
b. the Columbian iron works. the builders OF
the ship. New screws will be put on before the
vessel is turned over 20 the government.

Most of the visiting Elks are leaving Detroit
today. and by this evening there will be few
left. The principle business before the grand
lodge yesterday was the election of officers
There were only two candidates for the office OF
grand exalted ruler-Percy Williams of Brook
lyn and A. Apperly of Louisville. The first
ballot resulted in the election Of Mr. Apperly,
and it was made unanimous. For grand lead
ing knight, William G. Myers of Philadelphia,
by acclamaticn grand loyal knight. george A.
grand lecture knight, W. K. Wheelock of Dallas,
Tex, BY reclamation. Then came the nomina-
tons for grand secretary, and the fight against
the reelection Of Allen o. Myers began in
earnest.
The opponents of Mr. Myers nominated
Peter Rush Of Detroit and James v Cook Of
Indianapolis. not fight made, but Mr..
Myers supporters were in the majority and he
was reelected on the first ballot.

The report of the committee having in charge
1.-THE arrangements for the reception and enter
tainmcnt of the general assembly of the Presby-
'teran Church in the United States has been
,made through the chairman. Rev. DIR. Bartlett.
The report states that the general assembly
met in the New York Avenue Church May IS
last and dissolved on the evening OF June l.
Continuing, the report says: "Five hundred
and sixty-two commissioners reported person
ally for hospitality. OF these seventy-four were
entertained in the private houses of the differ
ent churches OF the city and 4SS in hotels and
boarding houses. A large number OF visitors
were also entertained in our homes.
1.-The preparations at the church were ex-
ceptionaly complete. The auditorium
tastefrlly decorated with flowers and palms and
all possible conveniences were provided The
committee on information was specially eff
cient under the chaIrmanship OF, Rev. Chas. b.
Ramsdell furnishing the telegraph, telephone,
typewriters and model post office. more con-
venient than at any previous assembly.
EFFICIENT Workers.
The chairmen Of all the committees were
singularly efficient, with energetic assistants to
second their plans. DIR. s. L. Crissey, chair
man of the hospitality committee. who devoted
his entire time to this most laborious and
difficult service. deserves especial commenda-
ton. MIR. II. H. Wells was not less useful in
the peculiar and delicate matter of raising
funds. The thanks of the committee are cor
daily rendered Mr.. John b. Wight, secretary Of
the general committee, for the free use OF his
convenient and commodious Office as our head
quarters, and for his unvarying courtesy and
wisdom in counsel. In fact. the success of the
entire undertaking is largely due to the efficiency
and enthusiasm of the committees, and the
faithful ana painstaking work of those called
to special places Of trust -.
The various receptions and entertainments
provided for the delegates are referred to and
the comment is made that more courtesies OF
this character were extended than the time per-
mitted the assembly to accept. The thanks of
the committee are extended to the newspapers
of the city and to the large number of persons
who i'll various ways aided the committee in
their work.

A SHIP FOR LIBERIA.
A Law Passed by Congress Nearly Thirty
Years Ago.

Years Ago
fact not generally known is that the United
States government is under certain obligations
to present ship to the government of Liberia.
resident of the African republic has spent
several DAYS at the State and Navy departments
for the purpose of reminding the heads thereof
that In 1866 Congress passed an act providing
that naval ship be presented to the republic
OF Liberia. The precise reason for such legis-
laiion cannot be stated unless 1t was to show a
substantial regard for the black republic. When
the matter was first brought to their attention
the authorities were inclined to doubt the exist
ence of the law IN question. but an examination
of the records showed that the African visitor
knew what he talking about The law was
found to be Just as he stated. but as ne had no
crede ntials from his government authorizing
birI TO receive the ship he was told that the
United States cOuld not negotiate with him
further. should the proper authority be forth
coming from Liberia the matter will remain as
it Is now for the Navy Department. has no idea
OF turning over one Of it, ships TO Liberia a
gift nor to any other republic There is need
for the few we have. and IL any are to be given
away the states will ge, them as receiving ships.
