FAT MEN STAND TOGETHER.
Their Rotundity Determined he Sha pc
of Coming Tower Apertures.

of Coming Tower Apertures-
At meeting of the Naval Board of Con-
strlIctiou, yesterday, Chief Constructor Hich-
born asked a reconsideration of the boards
action n directing that the entrance to the
coming towers of the new battleships should
be made short aud wide Instead of long and
narrow.
The action of the board was taken up be-
cause they believed portly officers would
find difficulty in passing into the tower,
aud to also lessen the danger to those in
side from pieces of exploding shells which
more easily enter through the long aper-
lures than through the short ones.
With one exception the board is composed
of fat men, aud consequently the chief con-
strlIctor was outvoted and no change in the
boards original direction Will be made.
Commodore Hichborn is also round, but
naval constructors do not so TO sea.

Use of American Caviar.

From Europe comes the warning note TO
the gourinanhs of the world to provide them
selves as early as possible with their supply
of Russian caviar. During the latter part
OF the last month good supply of caviar
brought from So to 81 pound In Astrakhan.
and since this years output is but very
small, 1t will become very much dearer.
Although many people have tried to explain
the small quantity of this years output
with various reasons, the only reason which
the practica! Russian will admit is the stur-
gcons do not want to be caught. The Octo-
Der catch was so poor that the Russians ex-
pect to be out OF caviar before Christmas.
Europe is. however, alive to the fact that
American caviar coming from tie United
States. more particularly from California,
Washington and Della ware. Is TO be had in
large quantities. A pound OF this American
product brings 81 in Hamburg, and in its
present appearance and taste differs but
very little from the Russian product. The
only safe means of distinguishing the origin
of the caviar is its color, which, in the
American, has a bro wnish appearance,
while the gray pearls of the Russian caviar
are preferred by the connoisseur.

DINGLEY NOT DISTURBED.

bond Bill.

Mr.. Dingley, of Maine. the chairman of the
Committee on Ways and Means. is not dis

Republican friends that the bond bill viii

Mr.. Dingley places the maximum strength
of the dissatisfied Republicans at not TO

he says. are absent, and he does rot think
, that the total opposition will exceed l25.
As the attendance among the Republicans
today will be large, this opposition, he
thinks. can he met and successfully over
come, with handsome margin to spare.
There is no expectation on the part of
leading Republicans in the House that Prcsi
dent Cleveland would approve the tariff
bill should it reach him.
Tuere j. wt..--utGenticated rumor in
circulation at the Capitol today that the
Treasury Department is now preparing a
contract, presumably with the Morgan
Drexei syndicate. for the sale of a thirty
year ! per cent god bond.
1t is believed that the Contract will be
signed within the next few days. If this
rcpor, be trGe. it presupposes n knowledge
IN the part or the administration that the
bond bill now under consideration in the
House VIII fail in the Senate.
The administration is reported to be
strongly iniinical to the pending measure.
and it is stated on high authority today
that an inti.nation to that effect has been
sent from the Executive Mansion to all
the sound money Democrats both in the
House and Senate
Sir. Dingiey. referring today TO the criti-
cisn upon the bond bill that it did not pro-
vide specifically for Il god bond. said: We
could net by any possibility pass a gold
bond bill through the Senate 1t would be
defeated overwhelmingly. and the world
would regard it as an indication that we
are over;y friendly to silver.
In providing for an issue of coin bonds
we are merely following the precedcnts Of
thirty years. All our outstanding bonds are
coin bonds and have been sold as such. We
have received gold in exchange for them,
and the principal and interest has always
been paid in gold.
There is no probability that this precedent
will ever be overthrown. For this reason,
l think there is no force in the objection 10
the bill. because it provides for the issuance
of a coin bond"
