NAVAL REORGANIZATION.
Effective Work of Congressman
Meyer.

Effective Work of Congressman
Meyer.
WASHINGTON, May 19.-The activity
of Representative Meyer, of Louisiana.
In urging reorganization of the per-
sonnel of the navy. Is earning for him
the title of 1.-THE sailors friend" Mr..
Meyer was instrumental In securing
the creation of a joint committee of the
senate and house to secure reorgani-
zation of the navy, and he has since be-
come an energetic member of that COM
mittee. He first turned his attention to
reorganizing the lower grades of the
navy. He has drafted a bill for this
purpose, which will be considered by
the joint committee at meeting today.
One of the main features of Mr.. Meyers
bill is in providing means of steady
advancement frOm the enlisted ranks
up to a !cOmmissi0n as officer. Mr..
Meyer says the old world navies pro-
vide for such advancement. but it is a
singular feature of the American system
that an enlisted sailor can never hope to
gain commission. The proposed bill
creates a number of grades through
WAich sailors may pass in a gradual
advance toward commission. These in
ciude. classes in ordnance, torpedoes
and electricity, signals and helmsmen, to
be known as the military classes of the
navy. Other classes are grouped as a
civil staff. and include classes of pay
and commission, steam engineering,
mechanics. apothecaries and other civil
branches. A method is provided by
which sailor may pass through one or
the other of these classes, and then, if
under thirty-fve years of age. be sent
to school of instruction. where he is
prepared for examination for commits
sion in the navy. Five commissions as
ensign are to be given annually in case
there are vacancies over and above
those filled from the naval academy.
Three other commissions are to be
granted annually to the civil corps of
the navy.
Another interesting feature of Mr..
Meyers plan of reorganization is that
it divides all naval vessels into divls-
ions. the naval forces into ba talions,
and then apportions the ships and
forces among six districts, into which
the coasts of the United States are
divided. The purpose of this is to give
each vessel and each officer and sailor
a permanent home port.

MAKING GOOD PROGRESS.
Democratic Senators Pleased q
the March Of Tariff Reform.


(. WASHINGTON, May 19.-The Demo-
cratic senators are gratified with the
progress they have been making with
the tariff bill during the past day or
two, but they fear that the situation
may not continue to be so pleasing to
them, and some of them are inclined to
suspect that the Republican opponents
of the bill are merely trying to lull
them into sense of security.
The Republican senators who in the
beginning manifested disposition to
antagonize every item in the bill, and
who suddenly changed their tactics yes
terday, have not abandoned their fight
on the bill, as their course yesterday,
letting so many paragraphs go without
challenge, has led some to believe, but
the change in method was made for TWO
purposes. They felt that they had gone
little too far in pressing their objec-
tiOns by declining to let any of the
amendments go in without debate, and
had aroused the antagOnism OF the
Democrats to greater extent than they
had intended. and they concluded that
nothing could be gained by provoking
friends of the bill to extreme
measures. They have not, however,
changed their purpose of opposing
many of the more radical changes which
the bill makes in the existing law, and
it is probable that they will consume
enough time OH these to compensate for
the time they might put in on all the
amendments. 1t is also probable that
they are willing that a test question
should be reached. and it is believed
that the sugar schedule is expected to
furnish this test. Only part of the
metal schedule and the wood schedule
stand between the paragraphs already
disposed of and the sugar schedule.
The metal sc. edule, as amended by
the compromise. provides for reduc-
ton of only about one-ffth from exist
ing rates, and it is not propable that
many of the paragraphs in this schedule
will be debated at great length. There
is sure 70 be more or less discussion of
the lead and lead ore duties. The wood
schedule may also developa debate over
the question of free lumber, All the
indications are. however, that the sugar
schedule will be presented next week.
The debate on this schedule promises to
be sensational, and some of the Repub-
lican senators have expressed the opin-
ion that this schedule will prove to be
the weakest link in the tariff chain.

l, 2 and of the Spring Valley Coal
company's mines are OIL fire at the bot

asked the strikers to allow the

close vote it was decided not to allow

about to adjourn when Vice President
Murray. of the state miners organiza-
tion, arrived. He strongly urged re-
consideration of the vote. He said such
action as they had taken was putting
club in the operators hands by which
their cause would be defeated. In spite
of Murray'S remonstrances the miners
adjourned without reconsidering the
vote, and the French anarchists SET

them down." etc." The operators are

IT WAS A WHITE FROST.

WILL NOT PROVE SERIOUS.
At Leasr, So Says the Forecast
Officials of st. Paul - Frost
Pretty General in Minnesota
and South Dakota-The Suit
Against MIR. Saulpaugh, OF
Mankato, Is Sensational.

There was very general frost Friday
night over Minnesota, South Dakota,
Nebraska. Iowa and Wisconsin. The
reports from the country are to the
effect that serious damage was done.
but Forecast Official Lyons. of st. Paul.
takes contrary view. He says he
finds that the temperature at about
sunrise yesterday morning fell to with
in from two to six degrees of freezing,
and thence eastward to the Ohio valley.
He says it is not necessary Tor the
temperature 10 fail to thirty-two degrees
or freezing point before we can have
frost with Il dry and clear atmosphere
such as that OF yesterday. When radi-
alton of heat and evaporation of moist
ure is rapid. he says frost Is liable to
occur at temperatures of from thirty.
four to thirty-eight, or even forty de-
grees, but frost under such conditions
is generally light" or what is
familiarly known as white frost,
simply because it is fruzen dew
or dampness, aud is not necessarily
fatal TO vegetation. ABOUT the !uoSt
that it does. says Mr.. Lyons, is to retard
the growth of tender plants. Such
mostly was the character Of yesterdays
frost. Although temperatures of "a deg
were recorded at Huron, S. D., and
North Platte, Neb., the former place
reported light" and the latter "killing
frost" There was light frost also as
far south as st. Louis. The tempera-
lure was really lower over Indiana,
Ohio and Michigan than it was any
where else in the West, but it was
cloudy and rainy there. The talk as to
damage from frost is something of the
nature of scare. says Mr.. Lyons. Veg
etation has had very healthy start,
and with the vigorous growth that has
been going on, il can stand little set
pack Without feeling it.

MYSTERIOUS BALLOT.
It Caused a Rumpus Among the
Ladies.

1t is reported that while the meeting
of the ladies' auxiliary of the B. of l..
E. was in progress yesterday afternoon
a very unexpected incident occurred.
Officers were being balIoted tor, and
when one of the telIers began reading
off the ballots she came upon one,
so it is said, bearing this nota-
ton: mo Catholics need apply
for office.'' This caused great
deal of surprise. 1t looked as though
the insidious hand of the A. P. A. was
trying to show its fine Italian hand.
The teller who read the ballot, SO the
report goes, is Protestant. but she did
not approve of such action, as she is too
broadminded and liberal. The GLOBES
informant states further that one
of the delegates earnestly protested
against this ballot being count
ed, or at least thought that
an apology was but proper from the
person who deposited the ballot. He
says the chair promptly sat down upon
this proposition, and also shut off all
debate upon the subject. He further
said that this action was not approved.
and that number of the ladies en-
phatically stated that IL such rulings
were to be the order of the day they
should withdraw from the org anizatiOn

MITCHELL. S. D.. May 19.-About two
years ago a fine-looking German, giving
his name as DR.. j. c. Kettner, and ac-
companied by his wife. came to Mitchell
from New York city and hung out his
shingle. He built up quite practice,
became popular among the German
residents, and seemed a very devoted
husband. About month since he left
for Chicago to attend medical gather
ing, and wrote his wife one letter from
that place, which was the last she heard
from him until she received copy of a
Cincinnati German paper containing a
notice of his recent marriage to Miss
Engelhart. of that town, under his own
name, and giving his residence as
Mitchell. The Mitchell wife has a New
York marriage certificate, and she pro-
poses to get requisltion from Gov.
Sheldon and bring her recreant spouse
to a settlement on a charge of bigamy.1
