NO SHIP TO BE SENT
Admiral Walkers Protest Not Needed by
the Navy Department.
Six Ships Are Idle at Frisco, but
None VIII he Sent to Honolulu
or Samoa.

Inquiry at the Navy Department today
develops the fact that there is no DISPOSE
ton to again station a war ship at the Ha-
waiian Islands for the protection of Ameri-
can interests in the new republic. No Uni
ted States war ship has been stationed at
Honolulu since the flagship Philadelphia
was ordered away last summer. 1t is said
at the department that none OF the vessels
on the Pacific coast is at all likely to be
sent to Honolulu, for the present, at any
rate, on the general theory that there is
no necessity for such action.
Surprise mt This Policy.
Considerable surprise is manifested at this
policy in view of the fact that Admiral
Walker, in his official reports, shows the
urgency and Importance of naval represen-
tation in that quarter coequal with the
British forces maintained there, and the
further fact that there are now at San
Francisco five war ships ready for immedi-
ate service, with no special demand for any
of them at any other place on the Pacific
station, unless 1T be Samoa The admins
tration is apparently as averse to sending
a ship to Samoa as 1t is to keeping one at
Honolulu. The result is that six available
ships Gncluding the Monterrey are now tied
up in idleness on the Pacific coast
An Excuse Not Now Available.
When the Philadelphia was withdrawn
from Honolulu, in spite of Admiral Walk
er's protest it was officially stated that
there was then no other available vessel
to take her place. Most Of the vessels on
the station were then engaged in patrolling
Bering sea. They were relieved from that
duty over two months ago, and have since
undergone repairs at Mare Island. Reports
to the department show that all of them
ere now ready for sea service. The fleet
cncludes the flagship Philadelphia, Ben
nington, ,Mohican, Alert and Ranger. The
three last named are ships of the old navy,
and are particularly well adapted to cruis-
ing in tropical waters. 1t is expected that
they will be distributed about the station
in short time. Inasmuch as there is no
demand for them along the west coast Of
Central and South America at present,
there would seem to be no good reason
why at least one Of them should not go
to Honolulu.

THE SENATE RULES.
An Omcial Decision That They VIII
Not Be Changed at Present.

The Senate committee on rules was In
session today, attended by all members.
Nothing was done looking to a change In
the rules, ard the greater part of the time
of the meeting was devoted to the con-
sideration of questions connected with the
work of the Senate with which this COM
mittee is intrusted. There was some gen.
eral reference to various resolutions pend
ing for amendment providing for closure,
for the counting Of quorum, and for COM
pelling the attendance Of absent Senators,
hut the discussion was Of the most casual
character and 1t soon became evident that
1t would be impossible to agree upon any
report.
Senator German announced himself as
adverse to any amendment to the rules,
and the two republican Senators, Aldrfch
and Henderson, oppose change at the
present time. The other two members,
Senators Blackburn and Harris. were of
the opinion that something should be done
to expedite business, but they did not sub
init any proposition. Consequently, moth
ing was left for the committee but to
either report adversely or postpone fur
ther conside ration until after the holidays,
and the latter course was decided upon.
The only affirmative action on any QueS-
ton taken by the committee was to order
a change in the construction of the Senate
galleries so as to provide small gallery
for the exclusive use of the families of
Senators, to which cards of admission can
not be issued.
