WASHINGTON. Feb 25.-Members of the
house committee on Indian affairs say
that the appropriations for the next fiscal
year for the Indians will not be materially

settlers will have made payments fer

WHAT THEY OFFER.
inducements Offered 1a:h Iron Works to
Locate Il New leaden, Ct.

NEW LoxpoN, CT, F4b. 25.-Rspresen
tatives of the railroads centring in this city
hare made a proposition to President Hyde
of the Bath Iron Works to induce that big
ship building concern to locate here. Pfesl-
dent +. c. Smith of the Central Vermont,
President Colt of the New London North
ern, Hon. Augustus Braudegue. counsel fol
the corporations; President Clark OF the
New York, New Haven Hartford, and
other officials of these roads, have presented
the case for New London.
The conference was lorg one aud the
situation thoroughly canvassed. with the
result that the New London Northern and
Central Vermont Railroads offered to the
Bath Iron Works Company land abutting
the Thames river above the bridge at East
New London. where the finish of the Yale
Harvard races has occurred in years past,
with 1900 feet available water front, or land
below the bridge, with 600 feet available
water front, for the location OF the Iron
works, at the nominal rent of 81 per year
for 80 years. the term for which the New
+ ,ndon Nolthern Railroad is leased to the
Central Vermont II ,ilrea1.
The railroad officials agree to make all
necessary track come c.ions and supply the
necessary filling at actual COS. to the Bath
Iron Works Company.
Another condition of the change in loca-
ton to New London is the construction OF
dry deck to accommodate the largest
ocean steamers built. Such dock will
cost, il is estim ited, about 100000. The
dry dock will be constructed by capitalists
willing to invest in it, and will be leased to
the Bath Iron Works for term of years,
covering the life of dock, at price that
will pay fair percentage on the invest
ment to the Bath company, or they will
make other satisfactory arrangements.
1t is not known what the proposition OF
the New York, New Haven & Hartford
Road was, but it is understood that the OIL
cials offered land and water privilege in
Groton Mt the terminus of the Providence
Road, and agreed to give them large part
of the work on the several steamers that
they control.
Ex-Gov. Weller, President Ware and
the railroad officials held conference here
yesterday with President Hyde and Supt.
Andrews of the Iron Works as to the finan-
cial aspects of the matter. No decision in
the matter is expected until the directors of
the Bath company have canvassed the stu
alton thoroughly, when definite PROPOSE
ton may be looked for from the Bath COM
pany, stating the conditions under which
they will make the change to New London.
Upon the decision of the Bath company de-
pends the action of one of the largest brass
manufacturing concerns in Connecticut,
which is looking for location in this city.

RAILWAY POSTAL CLERKS
VIII BE Benefited by Proposed Re
vision of the Salary List.

WAsuINGT ON, Feb. 25.-There are more
than 5000 railway postal clerks in the ser
vice of the government. Most of them
will be benefited by the bill of Represen-
tative Hopkins of Illinois. which was
favorably reported by the house commit
tee on postofTlces. This bill creates seven
classes of clerks, ut salaries ranging from
$1,000 to $500. making two classes other
than are provided for by the present laws
salared at $1,000 and $500.
No class of government employees in the
civil service are subjected to such con
slant danger. or have duties imposing so
great IA strain as the postal clerks. Many
of them have been killed in railroad acct
dents in the recent years. and efforts have
been made to provide pensions for their
families Members of the postoflice COM
mittee expect to make a sterling stand TO
secure more liberal wages for employees in
this branch.

Ends the War There.

WASHINGTON, Feb. a5.-Zenor Guzman,
the minister of Nicaragua to the United
States, has received cablegram, saying.
'The capitol of Honduras tTegucigalpa)
capitulated last night. Publish this
cablegram. Our victory puts an end to
the war in Honduras
1t is believed here that the armies OF
Nicaragua will not withdraw from the
soil of Honduras after the provisional gov
eminent, which Bonilla and his Honduran
associates will establish, is firmly en-
trenced in power and able to put down
any disorders that might arise. Vasquez,
the dethroned president, it is supposed,
will leave the country, and Nicaragua
will permit the people of Honduras to set
tie affairs in their own way.
