"The Times" Campaign Bates.
In order that no citizen of the
southwest may have an excuse for
not being posted on the developments
of the interesting political campaign
which is just opening, The Times has
made special campaign rate of ST.
80 for the daily and Sunday paper,
and IS cents for The Twice-d- Week.
Times until January l. While The
Times is an earnest and fearless sup
porter Of democratic principles, it is,
and always has been, liberal enough
to open its columns to representatives
of different political opinions for the
discussions of their views. In the
columns of The Times the important
news of the campaign of 1894 will be
set forth fully and fairly. Its news
facilities are unequalled by those of
any other newspaper published in the
southwest. At the prices made either
the daily or the TtCice-G- Week edition
should be in the hands of every man
who holds to those economic prlnci-
Piles for the success of which the peo-
pie of the west are contending.
Liberal terms to agents and post

A DRAMATIC WRECK.
Viewed by Thousands of Visitors on
the Jersey Const.

Herald dispatch from Seabright, " J.,
states that in the midst of a peaceful sea
yesterday afternoon thousands of guests
at the summer resorts on the New Jersey
coast watched for two hours while five
sailors of the wrecked schooner Robert II
Mitchell chung for their lives to the rig
sing, anxiously watched while steamer
after steamer passed, unhoSding the signal
of distress that foateJ from the masts,
until IL seemed as II they were to be left
to their fate. Then, when the excitement
OF the thousands who came from every
point within miles had reached its height
the crew Of the lIfe-saVirg station put out
In a boat. Cheer upon cheer went up from
the crowd toward the two masts freighted
with imperiled seamen.
The masts were about two miles distant
but in twenty-five minutes after it had
started the lifeboat had reached them and
one by one the watchers on the shore saw
the sailors taken from the masts and then
the bare poles were left behind. the only
mark to tell Of the wreck that had ended so
satisfactorily. Food and clothing were pro-
vided for the ship-wreckcl men. ana a
purse of SInn was raised. The vessel that
went down was the schooner Robert II
Mitchell. that cleared Sandy Hook yester-
day morning bound for Norfolk with a
cargo Of salt. She sprang aieak and the
captain headed for the shore, but she sank
before reaching the goal.

NAVAL REORGANIZATION
Congressional Committees Plan for the
Staff and Line
The Plan Has Been Completed
Changes Proposed in Junior and
senior Grades.

The Joint congressional committee on
naval reorganization has completed its
work on the staff and line reorganization of
the navy and of the marine corps. In the
reorganization of the staff and line COM
pleted 1t is provided that there shall be
eight military corps. designated as fol-
lows: Corps of the line, medical corps, pay
corps, engineer corps, naval construction,
marine corps. naval cadets enlisted men.
Two classes Of civil employees of the navy
are also established, viz: Professors of
mathematics and civil engineers. The
active list of commissioned line officers is
divided into seven grades, with the follow
Ing limits: Sixteen rear admirals. GO cap
tains, 100 commanders, "A lieutenant COM
manders, $50 ieutenants, rs lieutenants,
Junior grade, ensignS sufficient to maintain
the total active list. The grade OF conlmo-
dore on the active list of the navy is
abolished, and officers in that grade now on
the active list shall be commissioned rear
admirals No increase is made in any of
the corps. The status of each is fully de-
fined. and a contention of many years as to
relative rank between staff and line off,
GERS Is remedied. The pay of staff officers
Is reduced to make it conform to that OF
line officers of the same rank.
one of the most important features is the
creation of reserve list TO overcome
the present congestion Of the line. The re
serve list is limited to 100. and Is made
up by taking from the most congested
branches of the service. Those entitled to
enter the list must have entered the serv-

elusive. This reserve list does not in
crease the number of officers. the purpose
being to assign officers of this list to work
now performed by officers on active shore
service.
1t Is provided that rear admirals shall
be appointed by the President from the
list of captains and shall be confirmed by
the Senate.
Extensive changes are made in the marine
corps. The commandment is raised to
brigadier general, and there are also Great
ed two colonies, two lieutenant colonies,
four majors. twenty captains, thirty hrst
Heutenants, twelve second lieutenants. Tke
leader of the Marine Band, now an en-
listed man. is advanced to the rank of
second lieutenant. No advance of pay is
made to the musicians of the band.

The War Department also has been put

will be under the head of transportation
In some cases the railway companies Will
probably present no bills, especially where
the troops were employed In the protection
