About $7OO,OOO.

The Principal in the Case Will Get
About $7OO.OOO.
d Arrangements have been made for the

nlent in settlement of the historical Mora
claim. 1t is expected that the Secretary of
State, who is the custodian of the fund,
will pey the money to the different parties
interested in a few days. possibly this
week.
The amounts finally agreed on for An
tonic Maximo Mora, principal in the claim,
is $S61,OS5. This sum has been reduced
amount to be paid Mr.. Mora will be slight
ly above 100000.
The next payment of importance will be
$2S7,O0O to DR.. Jose l. Rodriguez, who has
been the attorney of Mr.. Mora since the
inception of the case in 1870. A further
amount, approximately s2S5, ,OOO will be de-
voted to the payment OF Mr.. Nathaniel
Page, who was at one time an attorney in
the case, or to those to whom he may have
assigned his interest.
According to the original agreement be-
tween Mr. Mora and his attorneys, he was
to retain 90 per cent and they were to have
40 per cent, the latter sum to cover all
legal expenses. At various times DR.. Rod
Roscoe Conkling, s. l.. M. Barlow, Judge
Shipman and other eminent counselors.
Mr.. Crammond Kennedy OF Washington
came into the case about three years ago,
and, with DR.. Rodriguez, has urged it to
its recent final payment. These legal eX-

STATE NAVAL MILITIA,
What the Citizens of the State of
Ohio Desire.

Ohio Desire.
A strong movement is making in Ohio,
with every prospect of success looking to
the establishment of d state naval militia.
The Navy Department has been informed
that meeting of representatives of Ohio
cities interested in the project has been
called to meet at Columbus on the 14th in
slant to take measures to secure the neces-
sary legislation at the next session of the
legislature. To this end a bill has already
been drafted and submitted for the advice of
Lieut.. NibIack, in charge of the naval
militia division at the Navy Department,
patterned upon the Massachusetts, naval
militia act and providing for the creation of
foCr battalons, each comprising four di-
visions.
Lieut.. Niblack is looking forward to con-
siderable accessions to the naval militia on
the great lakes, and the Navy Department
is taking steps to prepare for their train
ing. The ordnance bureau is now consider
ing plans for a renovation of the battery of
the sloop-of-war Michigan, SO as to make
the ship suitable for the instruction of the
militia in the use of modern ordnance.
These plans con template the replacement of
the present battery of antiquated thirty
pound Parrott guns by two siX-pounder and
two one-pounder rapid-fre rifles.
The repairs to the receiving ship Mime
sofa, which is about to be turned over to
the Massachusetts naval militia, are almost
complete, and it is now expected that she
will be ready to start in tow from the
Brooklyn navy yard for Boston on the 14th.

Georgetown Merchants Want the B.
and 0. Road to Use Water Street.
ARGUMENTS BASED ON ADVANTAGES
The District Commissioners Are
Urged to Grant Permit.
WILL PROB ABLY DO 1T

A committee Of prominent merchants and
property owners along Water street,
Georgetown. appeared before the Commits
-sfoners this morning to urge the granting
or The permit to the Georgetown Barge,
DOCK and Elevator Company to lay anoth-
er track along Water street. The object of
this additional track, as has heretofore
been stated in The Star. is to give the Bal
tjmore and Ohio an entrance into George
town and a southern connection. The COM
mittee was composed of Messrs. F. L.
Moore, William Wheatley, R. B. Tenney
and Joseph b. Waters.
Mr.. Moore explained that the committee
was self-constituted, and consisted of mer-
chants and property owners on Water
street. whose object was to urge the grant,
ing of tie permit above referred to. He
thought the double track along Water
street used by the Baltimore and Ohio
would materially advance the interests OF
Georgetown and Washington, and COM
n,ended itself to every one as one of the
best things that could possibly happen.
Commissioner Truesdell asked if that was
the sentiment in Georgetown, and Mr..
Wheat,ey replied that 1t was decidedly. II
there is any objection (and he had heard Of
none), it arose from the fact that the track
already there had never been utilized.
Speaking for himself, he would be opposed
to granting any additional privileges were
he not convinced that the Baltimore and
Ohio meant to operate cars along water
street In the near future.
Mr.. Tenney stated that all OF the millere
were In favor of the project, and Commits
sioner Ross added that he could not con-
ceive of anything that would help George
town more. The meeting then adjourned.
tho Commissioners would grant the per-

ANOTHER NEW DIOCESE.
The House of Deputies Authorizes tn
Division Of Michigan.

The House of Deputies Authorizes the
Division of Michigan.
MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, october 9.-An-
other new diocese was authorized by the
house of deputies of the Episcopal conVen-
ton today, that of northern Michigan.
The committee on the division of the do
cese of Toxic, Japan. reported that it had
no Jurisdiction in the matter and asked to
be discharged. Judge Fairbanks of Flo-iia
reintroduced his resolution for an amend
ment to the constitution giving the author
ity for the cession of missionary 5urisdic-
stions, but objection was made 10 its con-
sideration and it went over.
Atlanta Chosen by the Deputies.
The report of the trustees of the fund
for the relief of aged ard infirm clergymen
and widows and orphans of clergymen
showed that the receipts for three years
had been $S1, 495, and that for ffty-nine
clergymen, 166 widows and twenty-four
orphans S4S295 had been paid out. The
house was asked to name a Sunday in each
year as clergy relief Sunday.
There was surprise when the house
took up the report of the committee rec
ommending Boston as the next meeting
place of the convention. Strong speeches In
favor Of Louisville, New Orleans, Atlanta
and Boston were made.
An amendment to substitute New Orleans
for Boston was voted down, and so was
enc for Louisville.
But the clever speech Oh rev. A. w.
knight in favor of Atlanta enabled him to
snatch the victory from Boston. His
amendment was carried by a decisive vote,
and Atlanta will be the convention city In
1898 If the bishops concur.
The announcement that Atlanta lad won
in the deputies was received with aston
ishment in the house OF bishops, and 1t was
declared by a number Of the bishops that
the upper house would not be likely to con-
cur in the selection.
The voice of the missionary bishops. 1t
was said, would he in favor Of Boston, es
there was a better prospect Of securing
liberal contributions for the mission work
in the older and wealthier cities
The house of bishops adopted tire recon-
mendation of its committee ordering the
division of the missionary jurisdiction Of
Wyoming and Idaho into two districts, the
present bishop to continue in charge OF
both.

western see of Colorado was then taken

MAKING FICTITIOUS ENTRIES.
A Customs Case In New York Now I'm
der Investiga tiOn.

der Investigation.
Assistant Secretary HamJip today gave
hearing to counsel for Des Brisay and
Allen. custom house brokers at New York.
who are under investigation by the Treas
ury Department. Some time ago this firm
was refused a renewal of their license
as brokers pending an investigation into
certain alleged Irregularities in their meth
ods of doing business, by reason of which,
it is said, the government has wrongful1y
paid them large sums of money as draw
backs. 1t is said at the department that
to show a nominal compliance with the
law the firm on several occasions filed with
the collector of customs six hours before the
sailing of a particular vessel a called
blanket drawback entry for goods to be
shipped by that vessel This entry
through collusion with some one III the
customs office it is alleged, was then with
drawn end amended by the addition of
such articles as were actually shipped by
their customers and upon which a draw
back claim would lie. After the vessel
had sailed it was discovered that the items
on the original entry were not shipped at
all, and, in fact, it is alleged, the first en-
try was fictitious and made with the sole
purpose of forming a basis for claims on
such goods as might subsequently be
added. These proceedings the depart
ment holds. were fraudulent. and for some
time past claims under them have been
denied. At the hearing today Mr.. Allen
of the firm insisted that the practice was
more or less general in New York. and
mentioned one firm in particular that did
not even file any preliminary entry at all,
other than sending an informal note to the
inspector, until after the vessel had sailed.
1t was insisted that no wrong was intend
ed, and that no moneys had been received
from the government not justly due them
under the law. Although he did not ad-
NIT that there had been in any case vio-
lation of the regulations, yet the present
conditions Of business, it was stated, was
such as to make a strict compliance in
every case almost an impossiblity At
the conclusion Of the hearing Mr.. Hamlin
stated that the matter would be referred
to the collector and the district attorney
at New York for such recommendations
as they saw fit to make.

! INDIANA PoLITics S
Light Thrown on the Situation BY Yes.
terdav's Election.
The ssPersonal Freedom Issue RE.
suits That May Give Courage
to Tnmmany.

The democrats are endeavoring to draw
all possible encouragement from the VIC
tory of their party in the local election at
Indianapolis. 1t is impossible to attach as
much Significance to the defeat of the re-
publican candidate for mayor as they
would like to, because Of the purely local
conditions disadvantageous to the repub-
Hcans. Yet the members of the adminis-
tration at Washington find in 1t an indi-
cation that the apparent revival of busi-
ness is exciting renewal Of confidence,
and in a measure re-establishing the de-
mocracy. 1t gives them hope and en-
couragement small as 1t may be, that they
are much in need of.
There is an attempt on the part of DO
litical prognosticators to draw some in
ference from it as affecting Mr.. Harri-
sons political prospects, but very little ma
terial is found for this. Indiana democrats
concede that their victory was largely
contributed to by the Resentment Of re-
publicans against the republican candidate
for having voted against Harrison at the
last presidential election,
They contend, however. that this was
merely contributory ard may havo in
creased the majority By a thousand votes
no more. But, however much resentful
friends of Mr.. Harrison may have contrib
uted toward democratic success, Harrison
cannot be held responsible for it, and it
cannot excite any EActional antagoi.tsm
toward him in the state.
The most important significance attached
to the election grows ont Of the result being
attributed chiefly to the personal liberty
issue. 1t is argued that If the sentiment in
favor of personal hberty" is strong
enough to give the denapcrats victory SO
pronounced in Indianapolis It may he re-
lied upon as good issue to give them VIC
tory In New York, where lie agitation has
been greater and the liquor Influence is
strong Arguing in this way, the demo-
Gratis find in this local victory promise of
success elsewhere. An analogy is drawn
between the situation In Indianapolis and
in New York city to their great comfort.
When. in 1872 the republicans got pos
session of Indiana, they passed the Baxter
law. which was not as radical as the Mich
olson law, which is regarded as the cause
of the present republicans reversal The re-
suit of the adoption of the Baxter law was
that the year after the republicans lost the
state and did not regain control Of the
legislature for twenty years.
The democrats argue from this that the
legislature elected next year, which will
choose a successor to Senator Voorhees,.
will be democratic, and that Voorhees, will
retain his seat.
A leading Indiana democrat expressed
the opinion to a Star reporter that the DEM
ocrats would have large majority in the
legislature elected next year, and that they
would hold the state at the presidential
election. He said that the election yester-
day indicated a democratic legislature for
q certainty
