The Pride of the Navy.

LEwEs. Del, May 17.-When tho great
armOred cruiser New York. the pride of the
American navy. got clear of craft along the
river 'front.' which she had been passing at
a six-knot-an-hOur speed, yesterday, the
throttle was opened little wider and the
revolutions ran up az high as one hundred.
This gave q speed of fourteen knots. which
was retained until the New York anchored
off Petty's island. There she lay for three
hours waiting for high water to cross the
shoals. She got under way at $50 O'Clock
and ran down stream about fifteen miles.
Captain Sargent swung the shI D 10 secure
the deviations of the corlpasses OH the four
cardinal points. The anchor vas dropped
again at midnight. but. shortly after day
break this morning. the New York got un-
der way and ran down as far as the break
water. Here the other points of deviation
were obtained, after which the ship was
headed for The open ocean and a course
shaped for Boston. Her trial will take
place off the coast of Cape Cod.

Mr. Bisseii Intimates the Senator Didn't
Tell the Truth About Postmaster Donham.
Special TO the Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON. May 1.-THE most re-
markable statement that has been made
during the controversy over the Terre
Haute postoffice situation is that contained
In Senator Voorhees, telegram alleging that
Postmaster general Bissell had sustained
Postmaster Donham in his illegal discharge
of old letter carriers at Terre Haute. This
statement. in the face of the peremptory
order, based on Section 6l0 of the postal
regulations, sent to Postmaster Donham
by First Assistant Postmaster general
Evans. warning him not to attempt to re-
move or appoint letter carriers. has caused
great deal of surprise and comment at
the department.. The statement was un-
warranted and untrue. Your correspond
ent found Postmaster general Bisseli too
busy with great mass of corr espondonce
to grant personal interview, so card
was sent in bearing the question:
Is IL true that the removal OF letter carriers at
Terre Haute by the new postmaster mas been
approved by the P0stmaster-general, as stated
by Senator Voorhees, in his telegram TO John
Lambl
The answer sent ont by Mr.. Bissell was
that he had not been informed OF the re-
moval of any of the old carrier force by
Dir. DoDham. and. in consequence. could
not have approved such action.
Mr.. Voorhees, was at the department.
again to-day to glaZe over Donham's mis-
conduct. but his reception at Mr.. BisselPs
hands was notIceably cooler. as that official
had meanwhile heard Of the untruthfol
dispatch sent out by the Indiana Senator.
