WASHINGTON CRY, Dec s-ISpecal T.
Senator Squire has specially interested
himself in the matter of better revenue
cutter service on the waters of Puget
sound. and has not been idle during the
congressional recess. He has had fire.
quent interviews with the chief of the
revenue marine service and has succeeded
In securing two more vessels for that sec
ton. The revenue cutter Grant has sailed
for Puget sound, and she will be follow ed
in month or SIX weeks at the furthest
by the revenue cutter Perry. The latter
Is now undergoing certain repairs and
alterations, and so soon as these are COM
pleted she will be put in commission and
dispatched to the Sound. While these
vessels will be q very welcome addition TO
the revenue force in these waters. there Is
an imperative need for two smaller and
faster steamers. For this purpose the sum
OF $50. 900 will be needed. There is already
At the present time available the sum Of
$4,000, which has been left over from q
former appropriation. The desired sum
OF so 900 has therefore been included in
the requisitions to the committee on ap-
preparations of the house. II Is the in
tention of Senator Squire not only to press
this matter before the committee on ap-
propriations. but also to introduce in the
senate q separate bill for this appropria-
tion, as that course will bring the matter
more prominently before the notice of
congress. This. it is hoped. viii have the
effect Of obtaining the necessary appropri-
alton.
Senator Squire also has bill prepared
during adjournment and introduced this

pose the converting of the Pacific Forest

ernment maps, near Mount Rainier, into
