BOTH HAVE EXPLAINED.
No Action to BE Taken in Regard to
AdmirnIs Bruine and Roe.

Several days ago complaint was made to
the Navy Department that Admirals Braine
and Roe had given public expression of dis
loyal sentiments in discussing the prospects
of war with Great Britain as result OF
President Cleveland's attitude On the Ven-
ezuelan affair Admiral Braine was report
ed to have said that the President had made
a mistake and that he would have cause to
regret his action. Admiral Roe was quoted
as saying that the United States was in no
condition to cope with a strong power like
Great Britain. Since the publication of
these interviews both the officers named
have written personal notes to Secretary
Herbert disclaiming the unpatriotic senti-
ments attributed to them. Neither officer
was called on by the department for an eX-
PLANTATION and their notes to Secretary Her.
bert were voluntarily written simply for
thu purpose of setting themselves right be-
fore the department. Their exposition of
the matter was entirely satisfactory to the
Secretary and the affair will be allowed to
quietly pass out Of mind.

Republicans Claim the President
Could Not Justify a Veto.
HE Is COMMITTED TO PROTECTION
The Present Measure Only for
Temporary Relief.
IF H E Il E E G T S I T

The republican program with regard to
the revenue bill and the bond bill is shrewd-
ly conceived as 1t affects the President. The
two bills will not reach him together. The
revenue bill will be sent to him first, and
his action on that will determine the final
shape of the bond bill. If he vetoes the rev.
enue bill the bond bill will hardly be made to
suit him, and so he will be obliged, having
rejected the plan OF Congress. to fall back
on another issue Of bonds under the old law.
Could Not Justify IL Veto.
The republican leaders declare that the
President would not be able to justify veto
of the revenue bill on the ground of its pro-
lection character. He does not now occupy.
nor does his party occupy the position held
for brief period under the tenure of the
Chicago platform of 1892. The Wilson bill,
1t is held, put an entirely new face on demo-
cratic pretensionS on the tariff question.
So far as the party is concerned, 1t stands
committed by that bill to the principle of
protection. The Wilson bill is full of pro-
tection--not Mckinley protection, but pro-
lection that as distinctly protects as could
be devised The difference, therefore,
drawn between the two parties on that is
sue is the difference of the degree of pro-
lection to be afforded American industries.
So far as the President is concerned, his
refusal to sign the Wilson bill does not eX-
empt him from the operation of the new
record. his obJection 10 the Milson Dill as

ANXIETY FOR THE MIOwERA.
Nothing Has Been Heard of the Miss
Ing Vessel.

PORT TOWNSEND. Wash, December
27.-Anxiety for the safety of the steamer
Miowera, which. 1t is feared, was lost while
towing in the disabled steamer Strathnevis,
is increasing hourly, and the opinion among
shipping men is fast crystallizing into be-
lief that when the cable parted with which
che was towing the Strathnevis 1t became
entangled In the propeller and put the
Australian liner at the mercy Of the ee-
ments.
The Miowera is three-masted schooner
rigged vessel and carried three yards on
her foremast, which enabled her to carry
a liberal amount of canvas. The idea in
some quarters prevails that she may have
had sufficient sail to keep her clear of
land, SO that she could stand out to sea.
Since Monday night, when the steamers
rarted company, n dozen vessels have come
In by cape, thoroughly covering the dis
tance from west to southwest of Cape
Flattery, but there were no signs of the
nissng steamer.

BATTLE SHIP NO. @.


She Has Been Named the Kentucky
by Secretary Herbert.
Secretary Herbert. with the full approval
of the President, has named the twin sister
of the new battle ship Kearsarge after the
state of Kentucky. 1t has been the Gus
tom of the Navy Department to defer the
announcement Of the name of new YES
sci until just before the launch, but as
Congress itself has already anticipated the
selection of name in the case of the
Kearsarge, it was concluded to name her
sister ship at once, instead of allowing her
to be known during the three years she
will he under construction as battle ship
No. g."
In the selection of name the Secretary
was obliged by the general act of Con-
gress to confine himself to the list of
states of the Union. Excepting the Kear-
sarge specially named by Congress, of the
five first-class battle ships built or author
ized, New England stands sponsor for one
the Massachusetts; the middle west for
two. the Iowa and Indiana; the Pacific
coast for one, the Oregon, and the south
for one, Kentucky.

mittee sent on to New York to notify DR..
Satterlee of his selection, the other men,
beIs being Rev. DIR. Alexander Mackay-
Smith and Gen. Parke. The formal letter
of Bishop Satterlee willprobably be received
in the course OF the next day or two and
upon its arrival a meeting of the standing
committee of the diocese of Washington
will be called. This committee consists of
Rev. John H. Elliott. DID, president: Rev.
Alfred Harding, secretary; Rev. r. H. Nc
KIM ID, Rev. Alexander Mackay-Smith,
DID, Rev. Thomas D. Addison, ID, Rev.
]. b. Perry and Rev. w. H. Laird Upon
convening the committee will send out tes-
timonials to the standing committees of
the various Protestant Episcopal dioceses
throughout the United States.
The Future Proceedings.
After the consent of the major number
of these standing committees has been OBJ
tained, the evidence of such consent, to-
gether with the original testimonials sign
ed In the primary convention, will be sent
to the presiding bishop, who will then take
steps to ask the consent of all the bishops
of the Protestant Episcopal Church
throughout the country to the conservation
of Bshop-elect Satterlee. When a major
ity of the bishops have given their consent,
order will be taken for the conservation.
The preliminaries mentioned will require
probably about two months, and 1t will
therefore be some time in March before the
new bishop of Washington will enter upon
the direction of the important affairs OF
the new diocese.
Gratifying Announcement.
The announcement of DR.. Satterlee's de-
termination to come to Washington will
doubtless cause a great deal of surprise, as
we'll as qualification, on the part of those
who have seriously doubted his final ac-
ceptance of the honor proffered him. These
persons have been Influenced in their opin-
ion by the fact that DIR. Satterlee Is the
rector Of a flourishing parish in New York
city, which has been largely built up by
his efforts. 1t was felt, therefore, that he
would regard with much dislike the pres
pect of breaking the many close ties he had
formed in New York. By others it was
pointed out that the substantial side of
the proffered bishopric was not equal to
the emolumentS DIR. Satterlee enjoyed as a
minister in the metropolis. The fact, there
fore, that he has allowed neither of the
considerations mentioned to influence him
in his decision will be generally appreciated
by all Episcopaleans here who are familiar
with the conditions of the case. DIR. Sat
terlee will not be stranger to Washing
ton, however. as he has many warm friends
among the clergy and many more among
the lay residents of Washington. He is the
brother of Mrs. Catlin, wife of Maj. Rob-
ert Catlin of the army, who resides at
142S Euclid place.

Concession of More Time.

The belief that-the measure would still OPP
crate in this way left much Of the antagon-
ism that before existed, but the concession
of more time for members to express their
sentiments or the floor prevented an open
revolt when the rule was brought in. In
order not to disclose their family differences,
the majority Of the committee on rules de-
cided not to debate the rule, and when the
democrats had consumed their twenty min
utes in opposition, MIR. Henderson asked for
a vote, without a word having been said in
debate on the republican side.
The Hopkins Amendment.
The ways and means committee adopted
the amendment to the bond bill suggested
by Mr.. Hopkins of Illinois, to prevent the
accumulation in the treasury Of the green
backs and their practical retirement with
out cancellation. The amendment provides
that nothing in the act shall be construed
to repeal or modify the act of 1878 for the
Another amendment was adopted making
the bonds issued under the act payable
within fifteen years. The second amend
ment had been suggested by Mr. Lacey of
Iowa, ard met the approval of the republi
can members. In the original draft of the
Eill it was provided that the bonds should
be redeemable at the pleasure of the gov
ernment after five years from their date,
and it was thought best to make definite
termination to them. The amendments
wee adopted by a strict party VOTE and
Mr.. Tarsney (Mo.) offered an amendment

Action Finally Taken.

Wher the members began to assemble at
the Capitol this morning it was speedily
made evident that there existed an intense
feeling on the question, and that many re-
publicans were prepared to resist the die
tates CT the managers. Some Of the criti-
cisms and protests were angry and bitter.
This situation led to the action Of the COM
mittee on rules in extending the time for
debate, but it was not sufficient to compel
the committee to permit amendments in
the House. 1t also led to the action of the
committee on ways and means in adopting
the amendment of Mr.. Hopkins. which eX-
pressly declares that the law requiring the
reissue of greenbacks should remain in
force This action is said to have relieved
the measure of much opposition, but 1t Is
contended by those who are fearful of the
retirement of the greenbacks that the
amendment does not in any way relieve the
measure of its Objectionable character.
since the operation of the act would be to
render it practically impossible 10 reissue
greenbacks once redeemed, unless they are
put out in the purchase of bonds The
sreenbacks redeemed would remain in the
treasury as a surplus fand, not available

COMMITTEE CONCESSIONS
The Republican Opponents of the Bond Bill
Partially Satisfied.
The Hopkins Amendment Adopted
and Longer Time Given TO.
Debate the Measure.

The committee rules has been COM
PEELED to extend the time for the consfd-
Grafton of the bond bill. so as to have a
vote at 3 o'clock tomorrow, instead of hav-
ing the vote today, as intended. This was
on account of the very strong opposition on
the part of many republicans to the meas
ure. A careful study of the measure
showed that IN its operation it would act
ually retire greenbacks from circulation.
The opposition to the retirement of green
backs and that to any bond issue uniting,
there was storm of antasonism In the
republican ranks. The first demonstration
was that of the caucus of dissatisfied re-
publicans last night The holding of this
conference satisfied the leaders of the
House that some concessions must be
made in order to relieve the measure from
very praye danger

DEADLY CENTER POLE
JOHN REED CRUSHED TO DEATH AT
ILLINOIS AND WASHINGTON.
He Was a Street-Car Inspector and
Was Caught by ans Electric
Car.

John Reed, an inspector of the Citizens
Street-railroad Company, met death last
night about 7.30 o'clock, at the corner of
Illinois and washington streets Reed was
hanging some headlights on the cars as
they passed the corner and stepped on to
an English avenue and Insane Hospital car
to place lantern. The car had not turned
on to Washington street from Illinois when
he climbed on to the front end, and just
there the poles are only about eight inches
from the sides of the car, and not that
much room is allowed when a car is max
ing the turn. Reed evidently forgot the
turn for as the car wheeled around he
started to swing off on the side next the
pole. Before motorman S. Dickerson could
stop his car Reed had been caught be-
tween the car and the pole and the life
almost crushed out of him. The car was re-
versed and the unfortunate fell I'M
conscious to the ground. He was picked UP
and carried into the Bates House drug store
where Drs. Crosse and Combs were called.
1t was seen that he was fatally injured and,
after a short time, he was removed TO his
home on East Eleventh street. Dr. Comps

year-old boy. He has been in the employ of
the street car company for NUMBER or
years and has been a faithful ana eIncient
employee Manager Mclean was notified of
the accident last night and was much af-
fected. He said that he had taken a per-
sonal interest in Reed and had promoted
him from motorman to inspector for his

of by FIanner &, Buchanan, and the funeral
