HYDROGRAPHER's REPORT.
Naval Charts of the World Are Near
ing Completion.

Washington, Nov. 9O.-The annual re-
port of the photographer OF the navy
department for the fiscal year has been
issued by the department He says:
THE work of constructing naval charts
has advanced to such a stage that L
am able to report: THAT the set of
general ocean charts is complete.
THAT the set of general charts
for the western hemisphere is practic-
ally complete.
S.-That four-hfths of the special
coast charts and harbor and special
charts of the western hemisphere. out
side of the polar regions, are complete.
4-That the work has been ex-
tended into the eastern hemisphere
where the general coast charts of China
and where work is in progress with Re
ference to the general coast charts of
southern and eastern Africa.
/ The organization of the division of
chart construction is such that larger
appropriations of money could he
effectively used in advancing more
rapidly TO new ground. An increase Of
$4,000 year for five years would
enable the Office to complete it's set of
charts, after which the expense OF sup
plying the government and maritime
community with the latest editions
would be comparatively slight.
The new method of filing and averag-
ing meteorological data in the meteorO-
logical division has not been put on a
working basis owing to discourage
ments of various kinds but ii is be-
lieVed that there are now no difficulties
in the way that cannot be surmounted
Much discOurageTuent has also been
met in the efforts Of the Office to secure
a set OF exemplars Of closed forms ac-
cording to recent classification. Dur

BRYAN REVIEWS The FIGHT
HAS AN ARTICLE IN THE NORTH
AMERICAN REVIEW.
Says the Money Question Was "the
Greatest Ever Submitted In Time
of Teace'--DecInres the Cause of
BimetaIlism VIII Finally Tri-
unph.

New York, Nov. 30.-In the Deem
Der number of the North American RE
view, published tomorrow. Mr.. Bryan
presents an article in which he dis
cusses the result of the election as
affecting the status of the silver ques-
ton. The issue of which election he
describes as THE greatest issue ever
submitted TO the American people in
time of peace" The result of the
study ~ the people of the money
question. ne declares, has resulted in
temporary defeat for his party, but
permanent gain for the cause of BIZ
metallism. Mr.. Bryan regards it as a
significant fact that the silver senti-
ment was strongest where the question
had been longest considered, that is to
say, in the west and south. The gold
sentiment prevailed III the eastern
states, but even there, in MIR. Bryan's
opinion, the cause of bimetallism made
more rapid progress than any cause
ever made in such 4 short time. The
odds against bimetallism in the middle
states were very great. In Wisconsin
and Minnesota the Democratic party
declared against silver in conventions
which sent delegations to Chicago. In
Michigan the convention was nearly
equally divided. and there was bit
ter contest within the party in Iowa,
Indiana and Ohio. While in Illinois the
hostile influence of the Chicago press
was greatly felt. MIR. Bryan expresses
his assurance that the election can be
by no means regarded as a conclusive
settlement of the questions at issue.
This confidence is confirmed by the his
tory of recent elections. Mr. Greeley
was defeated in 1872. and yet Mr. Til
den was elected in 1876. Mr.. Blaine was
defeated in 1884, but Mr.. Harrison was
elected in 1888. The Republican victory
Of 1888 was followed by the Demo-
cratic victory of 1890, and the election
of President Cleveland two years later
Mr.. Bryan cOunsels the Republican
party to remember that thousands of
Republicans have been held to their
party this year by the pledge that they
viii try to secure international bimet-
allism. In regard to the gold standard
Democrats. Mr.. Bryan is assured that
they cannot do as much harm in 1900
as they have done this year.
They cannot" he says. disguise
themselves again. The contest for
financial independence viii go on. We
undertook the contest with a disor-
ganized army; we emerged from it a
united and disciplined force without the
loss of a soldier. We are ready for an
other contest. We believe that we are
right. and believing that right will
finally triumph. we face the future firm
in the belief that bimetallism Will be

Palma Gets n Letter.

New York, Nov. 3O.-Delegate Palma.
of the Cuban Junta. has received a
letter which confirms the report that
General Garcia has taken .Guaimaro.
The letter says that not only did
Garcia's army capture the town, but
enough arms and ammunitions as well
TO fit out 400 recruits. In the battle $50
Spaniards were taken prisoners. The
arms and ammunition captured were
1886 cartridges, 200 Mauser rifles, $50
Remington rifles and two field pieces.
This confirmation has caused the Gu
bans here to rejoice as Guaimaro is the
most important interior town thus far
taken by the Cubans and has been con-
sidered a Spanish stronghold.
General Garcia further states that
his men are in good condition, and that
he will not march westward to Join
General Maceo but will remain in

London, Nov. S0,-The anniversary
dinner of the Royal society was given
tonight. Among the guests was Hon.
Thomas F. Bayard, the American am
bassador, who proposed toast to Sir
Joseph Lister, president CT the society.
In speaking to the toast, Mr.. Bayard
paid a handsome tribute to the work
that had been achieved.
Sir Joseph, replying TO the toast,
eulogized Mr. Bayard who. he said, had
endeared himself to everybody by his
genuine love for the old country Mr.
Bayard, he added, must have a feel
ing OF greatest patriotism as he (AIr.
Bayard) had quietly remarked to him
that the hope of his life had been al
most fulfilled, and when he left he
would feel that the clouds that once
seriously threatened the amicable rela-
tons of the United States and Great
Britain had entirely cleared away dur
ing his term of Office. This Sir Jo-
seph ascribed as largely due to Mr..
Bayard's beneficent efforts.

party of farmers to erect grain ele-
