WARRINGTON, Oct. 16.-Although the Ram

Of holding portions of our navy In reserve, Is ex
pected to reach It's conclusions soon. yet tho
actual assignment of ships to such reserve, on
any large scale, seems still some way Off. Our
troubles with England and Spain are unsettled,
and what our relations with Turkey are and

Perhaps 1t will be considered enough now.
therefore. to plan reserve system. and then
actually to withdraw vessels to 1t only when the
times are more propitious.
All three of the first-cla battleships In COM

Oregon is to 60 out on her first cruise to sea. and
during a three days run will test her big guns.
The Massachusetts, is to have her final test by =

the money retained upon her will be paid to tho
Messrs Cramp. Although the Indiana had
such hard time of it with her unruly turrets

to get her new gearing in because It has already
been provided. The need of II had been

lndianR's 13-inch guns were not free to work
that. but within their range seem to have
thrashed about in command Of the deck for q
time. and caused very hard work to control
them.
The British cruiser Melpomene lately had n
hard night during hurricane. and besides the

Archbishop Ireland of ST. Paul and Bishop
McGoldrick of Duluth arrived at the Fifth Av-
enue Hotel yesterday morning. They came
merely to pay their respects to Cardinal Satolli
before he left for Europe, Archbishop Ireland
said. and he declined to be interviewed on any
subject.
He said that he had defined his position in
favor Of sound money last week. and that was all
he had to say for the present. Archbishop Ireland
did not call on Archbishop Corrigan or Arch
bishop Martinelll at the archcplscopal resi-
dence. nor did he receive any calls from them.

the buckingham Hotel. called to see Arch

to brooklyn with Bishop McGoldrIck. to see
Cardinal Satolli. Archbishop Ireland arrived
at Major Keily's house at ) O'Clock. and spent

Martinelli and COrrgan and Bishop Mcdonnell
of Brooklyn were among the guests.
The report that Father Augustine +. Hewitt,
Superior OF the Paulist Fathers. WAS likely to
succeed Bishop KeHne as rector OF the Catholic
University at Washington, was considered as
highly probable by many clergymen in the
diocese yesterday. Some said. however. that
his advanced age and impaired health might
prevent his selection.

Finds Rest.
Tobias Schuster, weary of foot and lrokon in
health, found harbor yesterday In the Kinga
County Almshouso in Flatbush. His story In
brief was as follows: Seven years ago he left
his native village in Austria and came to this
country with his two aisters. He was we'll
supplied with money, and invested most
OF 1t in loo-acro farm In California.
His hrst misfortune was when his sisters
got homestck, and, boarding a steamer in
San Francisco, started back for Europe. One of
them, his favorite. died on the voyage. Two
years ago herd of wild pigs and n swarm of
locusts struck his farm and left 1t almost COM
pletely bare of fruit and vegetation. He strug-
glcd hard, however. to hold on to the property,
but last spring 1t had to be sold to pay tho mort
gage, and when matters were squared up, his
share OF the proceeds only amounted to SO.
Schuster told the charity officials that he then
packed up his belongings in handkerchief
and, starting from San Francisco, trudged all
the way across the continent. arriving In Jersey
City two weeks ago. After resting q couple OF
days ho got q job on Jersey farm, but had to
give 1t up, not having the strength to work.
He trudged around In New York for a few days
and Yesterday decided To try his luck In Brook
lyn. The maH repeated his story at the aims
house and the superintendent promised to aid
him in getting employ oyment when he had taken
