BRYAN TO SPEAK HERE.

A Bryan ratification meeting will be hold by
the District Democrats on Saturday evening.
The candidate will speak at Capitol Park. At
first it was suggested that the baseball park
be used inasn,uch as The local Free Silver Dem
ocrats have an idea that al! tho population of
the city will turn ont TO hear Bryan. But the
baseball club wanted that park. Then someone
said, Let him speak from tho Capitol steps,
But Bryan himself did not want an exception
made in his case aud refused.
The majority Of tho members OF the Central
Committee were crestfailen over Mr.. Dryan's
refusal to speak from the Capitol steps, but it
may be stated a positive fact that several
prominent members OF the committee were
violently opposed to the plan from the very
beginning. So the Capitol Park was chosen.
There are about 100 Free Silver Democrats
who intend to be on the band-wagon at this
great event, SO they call themselves the COM
mittee. Among those who will address tho
meeting are Thomas f. Grady, of Tammany
Hall Senator Blackburn, Senator Faulkner,
Senator Daniel Jefferson Chandler, Of Missouri;
Joseph n Beck, of Pennsylvania; Senator
Jones, Senator German, and a. A. Lipscomh.
Mr. Bryan will arrive here on Saturday after
noon. The Reception Committee will escort him
to the Metropolitan Hotel and thence to Capitol
Park, where it is expected he will arrive about
5 o'clock. He will take the platform immedi-
atey upon his arrival and at the conclusion Of
his speech he will be escorted TO tho depot. as
lie is to speak in Baltimore on the same day.

ARMY AND NAVY.

It has been only in the last few years that
the authorities of the War and Navy Depart
ments have turned their attention toward
perfecting brand of powder capable of high
velocities quick burning aud at the same time
producing little or no smoke. In the last few
months both Departments have found formula
which, they declare will give this Government
the strongest and best powder known to the
military powers Of the world. In few weeks
the Navy will purchase upward Of 100000
pounds of he new powder for the vessels in
service, and this will be followed later by still
larger orders. until there is a good stock on
hand for all emergencies. Al present the
factory at Newport cannot furnish the powder
as fast as the ships require it, so that it will
become necessary for the Department to send
its formula to some private powder mandatory
ia order to facilitate deliveries and increase the
supply.
The Ordnance Bureau Of the Army will shortly
award contracts amounting TO $4,000 in the
purchase of ordnance material for coast defcnses
under the liberal provision made by the last
Congress. The proposed expenditure is in adj
dition to the large sum lately distributed in the
shape of contracts among the leading steel
firms for heavy guns. mortars, aud carriages.
The new program includes the purchase Of n
lighter class Of ordnance for use as a kind OF
secondary battery for the heavy artillery CON-
