Naval OfHcers and the Fair.

The Navy Department has followed the
lead Of the War Department in declining
to allow mileage and expenses to naval
officers who are to attend the engineering
congress at the worlds fair. This Is con-
sidered quite a hardship in the case Of
the officers who are under engagement
not only to read professional papers. but
to look out for the comfort Of distinguished
foreign visitors and insure the success Of
the congress itself.

As though to emphasize the intention of
the government only to purchase silver at
what the director Of the mint considers to
be the true market price Of the metal. all
the offers of the owners of silver that were
made to the Treasury Department were re-
fused today and a counter offer made. In
all there were $3.50 ounces of silver offer
ed at prices ranging from $3.50 to $3.50
These offers We're declined and the counter
offer of $3.50 made.
As there remains but three more days in
this month ON which the government pur-
chases. and as the total amount thus far
Is only about 1850. 90 ounces. II would seem
almost certain that the treasury will not Sc
cure the full quota of 4,5e0.M ounces.
IL II not likely that any notice Of the failure
of the government to obtain the full amount
will be taken until Congress meets, when it
Is probable that a resolution will be intro
duced calling on the Secretary Of the Treas
ury to explain why the entire amount was
not bought. In this way the question as to
