A Bureau IN CHICAGO.

The legislature created the Office OF
state immigration agent for the purpose Of
affording information TO intending settlers
and to make known the advantages Of the
state to those seeking homes. The pur-
pose is to bring such people as would be
desirable citizens and spare them expense
and disappointment in seeking locations
suited TO their means and purposes.
The legislature appropriated only 500 a
year for expenses, and this will be en-
tire1y inadequate. The immigration agent
appointed by Secretary OF State Price. Mr..
Anderson. is seeking 10 interest the COM
mercial bodies of the several counties to

Chicago, whence Information can be dis

might be effected. The experiment is

In Massachusetts, Justice Allen, Of the
supreme court. informed an attorney who
apologized to him for handing him
manuscript decree for his approval. that
apology was altogether unnecessary. as
he did not think typewriter copy was
suitable for records. While typewriter
documents migiN be more legible and
more easily read. he said they were more
easily tempered with and changed: that
handwriting had strong individuality Of
character difficult for any one to change
and there were few cases where multi
alton OF such papers had been attempted
successfully. While typewriting might be
palmer and more expeditions, handwrit-
Ing was the safer.

David Day, editor of the Durango
Democrat, in Colorado, comes out
frankly and says 1t was natural
that the people Of his state
should be dazzled for a while by the
promise held forth of an increased mar
ket for their silver product. He main
tains. however, that when the first
glamor of the new gospel of fraud has
worn away the people OF his state will
detect its true character and renoance 1t
with the contempt 1t deserves. He says
this should have been done long ago. and
his paper is ashamed of Itself for having
lent its influence so long to the perpetra-

out of the congregation OF the faithful
for his piainness of speech, but insists that
what he says is the downright, solid, I'M

THE CRUISER ATLANTA.
Some Surprise Here That She Has
Conc to Bluefields.

Some Surprise Here That She Has
Gone to Bluefelds.
The cruiser Atlanta left Key West, Fla,
yesterday. In reporting her departure, Ad-
miral Meade, commanding the North At
lantic squadron, said the vessel was going
to Bluefields. This intelligence caused gen.
eral surpri:e at the Navy Department, in
asmuch as Admiral Meade had been in
structed to send her to Belize and other
ports in Honduras, to see that American in
terests were not jeopardized by domestic
conflicts reported as imminent in that coun-
try. Admiral Meade has been asked for an
explanation. The matter is not serious.
There Is no special call for a warship at
Honduras, and, in case one is needed, Blue
fields is not very far away. The Atlanta's
orders. Included a short visit to Bluedelds
prior to her joining the rest of the squad
ron in the Caribbean sea for fleet evolu-
tions. 1t was understood, however, at the
department that the vessel would first visit
Honduran ports on her cruise to Bluefelds,
and such may possibly be Admiral Meade 8
purpose. He may not have thought 1t
ate stopping places, or 1t may possibly have
been decided to change the order so as to
visit Bluefields first and then go to Hon
duras on her way back to join the fleet
At any rate, that is the way several Navy
Department officials, who think the matter
susc eptible of satisfactory explanation, look
at it. Otherwise Admiral Meade may be
subject to rebuke for a technical disobedi-
ence Of orders.

MORE MEN FOR The NAVY.

mission for Lack Of Crews.

Ships That Cannot BE Put IRtO Com
mission for Lack Of Crews.
An increase in the force Of enlisted men
in the navy is one of the sfhost pressing
reeds of that service at the present time.
The cruiser Mohican, at the Mare Island
navy yard. has been reported entirely
ready for active service at sea, but she
cannot be put in commission for the very
good reason that there are no available
sailors at the disposal Of the department
for that purpose. The unemployed contin-
gent of enlisted men was exhausted in the
detail for the cruiser Olympia, also on the
Pacific coast. There were only men
enough for one ship, and it was decided
to commission the Olympia In preference
to the Mohican. The cruiser Boston, which
has gained worldwide reputation through
her connection with the revolution in Ha-
wall, is in almost the same condition as
the Mohican. She is in complete repair
and awaits only a crew in order to be
transferred to the active list She will
probably be put in commission before her
older consort, it having been determined to
man her with the crew of the flagship
Chicago, as soon as that vessel returns to
New York from the European station and
is put out of commission to receive extensive
repairs to her machinery intended to ma
terially increase her speed power. 1t will
be several weeks however, before the de-
cago. as that vessel will not start for home
until she Is relieved Of duty in the Medi-
terranean by the new flagship Of that sta
ton, the San Francisco. which has not yet
started on her journey across the Atlantic.
She is now completing her outfit at New
port, and will probably start for Europe in
a few days. Another vessel that could be
utilized for active service IL there were
men to man her is the battle ship Maine,
at New York. From present Indications it
will be a long time before she can be placed
in commission. The additional number of
men required to properly man the new
ships is 1000, and Congress has been re-
peatedly urged to authorize such an in
crease. This number is based on the actual
necessities Of the service in the event that
the department puts all of its new ships
in commission In view, however. of the
uncertainty of favorable legislation by Con-
gress on the bill now before it, it has been
suggested that the department reduce it's
requisition to 1000 or even 500 men.
