Great Britain, Europe and civilization.
She has always been cordial in her
friendships and anxious for the loftiest
relationship with the United States.
Her messages, sweet, tender and wo-

welcome and a permanent memory In
our American homes. In estimating her
influence we must picture what might

FIRE IN THE NAVY YARD.
Serious Blaze In the Government Ship

serious BiaZe In the Government Ship
building Plant at Brooklyn.
New York, June 22-Fire broke out at
the navy yard in Brooklyn shortly be-
fore 10 o'clock last night and did dam
age to the extent of about 100000. The
building known as No. 13 was partly
destroyed. 1t was of brick, three stories,
and occupied the entire block bounded
by Second and Third streets, $50 by 60
feet. 1t was occupied mainly by the
ordnance department and also contain
ed joiner machine and paint shop. The
fire started in the paintshop. 1t spread
quickly, and, although combated by a
large section of the fire department and
the two fire tugs Seth Low and David
A. Body, it's progress could not be
staid.
Finally about 900 Jack tars and 300
marines were detailed from the ships
Indiana, Detroit, Maine and Vermont
and the monitors Puritan and Terror
under command of Captain of Marines
G. F. Elliott and they did great serv-
ice. Great difficulty was experienced
by the fire department In getting a suf-
flcient supply of water on account of
the limited capacity Of the mains in the
yard. But for the assistance of the
f1reboats the entire building would have
been destroyed. AS 1t was, the fire was
confined to the two upper floors.
BY fortunate circumstance between
5000 and 1000 new lee navy rifles had
recently been transferred from the
building to the various warships.
The building was constructed four
years ago. but had been completely
overhauled and renovated within the
past few weeks. The loss on this IL es-
timated at nearly $4,000 and the loss
on the contents about the same.

retary Vanderlip has advised the direct
or Of the bureau of engraving and
printing of the probable requirements OF
the postofice department for stamps
during the fiscal year ending June 30,
1898. These estimates, based upon the
number used in previous years, are as
follows: Ordinary stamps, 3,444. 900;
newspaper and periodical stamps, $751;
900; postage due stamps, 21,16S,0O0. OF
the ordinary stamps 2,5OO,000,000 are OF
the cent denomination and 100000
are Of the 10 cent special delivery Sc
ries.
AS compared with the requirements
for the present year, these estimates are
an increase of about 295,000,0O0 In the
number of ordinary stamps. an increase
Of 10000 in the special delivery, an in
crease of $4,000 in the newspaper and
periodicals and a decrease Of $4,000 In

IRON WORKS SHUT DOWN.
Closed on Account of . Dispute Over
Reduction of Wages.


Reduction of Wages.
Scranton, Pa, June 22.-The big south
works of the Lackawanna Iron and
Steel company has been forced to close
down, and about $500 men are out of
employment because of a dispute over
a reduction in wages. When the mill
resumed work three weeks ago, after an
idleness Of a few weeks, a notice was
posted that there would be an average
wage reduction of about IL per cent
among the tonnage men.
Saturday was pay day, and when the
hands received their envelopes they
found that the cut had been much
greater than IL per cent, and many OF
the 1900 nontime men affected by II
did not 90 to work yesterday morning.
Only a few Of the night shift have re-
ported, and the mill had to close down
for want Of help.
"A committee waited on General Mas
ter Weihum and were told that the COM
pany could not make money on any
higher wage scale. It Is believed that
the 1900 or 1000 hands Of the north
works may also quit. There Is not now
the slightest evidence Of any disorder.

New York, June 22.-Samuel J. Casey
superintendent of postofflce substation
D of Brooklyn. committed suicide at
his home by taking carbollc acid. Be-
fore dying he wrote letter to his wife
saying that he was $500 short in his ac-
counts with the government and asked
that this be squared up out of his life
insurance policy. Casey's superiors
speak of him as one of the best men In
the office and think his action the re-
suit Of temporary insanity. The de-
ceased was SO years old and leaves q
widow and two children.

An Open Disagreement on That Schedule
In the Senate.
Washington, June 23.-An exciting de-
bate marked the consideration of the
wool schedule in the senate. II dsvel-
Ioped the first open disagreement on the
Republican side of the chamber and led
o warm personal exchange between
lenators Carter Of Montana and For
a1er Of Ohio on one hand and Mr.. ALL
s,n of Iowa, in charge Of the bill, on
tie other. Mr.. Foraker asserted that
an agreement concerning rates on cer-
tab woods was being violated and that
unter such circumstances every sena-
tor would be free to act for himself.
NJ. Allison, with great vehemencs.
declared that he could not be driven by
thretts. Mr.. Carter. who had aroused
the sorm, endeavored to have the par
agrapns relating to carpet woods go
over, with a view to securing some
united action, but Mr.. Vest. in an
ironica speech, objected to delaying the
era ofprosperity and postponing the
public business while Republican sem
ators he'd caucus.
Mr.. Tller of Colorado also spoke
against kelay and took occasion to say
he wouil not vote for the bill unless
Objectionable features were eliminated.
Aside frtm this stormy interruption
fair PROCESS was made on the wool
schedule. The duty on first class wool
was agree to at 10 cents per pound
and on secAd class wool II cents, which
is between the house and senate rates
in each case Mr.. Allson's amendment
prescribing triple duties on certain
classes of third class woods was agreed
to by a vote " % to 26.
Most of theother amendments relat-
ed to the classification of woods. On
one of the AMENDMENTS Mr.. Jones Of
Arkansas spNe against the entire
schedule as sdNerely oppressive on the
consumers of wolen goods.
Senator Perkins Of California rein
troduced his biuof last session for the
appointment of commission for the

The question as to who is the second man in the land has been decided by vice-president Hobart in favor of himself. Heretofore it has been customary to allow the British Minister to stand with the president on all public occasions, but hereafter Hobart will fill the post of honor, and there is conse- quent coolness between that gen tleman and the English represen- tative.

The Phenix Herald refers to the grand Lodge of Odd Fellows in the following strain:
 "* From all parts of the territory, from the bleak and rocky re- glon of the north and the valleys of the south where perennial sunshine kisses the eternal spring, comes men ot worth and standing, ,and while the general hand shaking is going on the interchange If courtesies IS not confined to those who wear the decorations of he order, but the hearty plebeian grasp is notceably iniermIngled with the mystic tonch known and felt only by he initiated "
 For the information of the Her aid we will say that the north is not rocky nor bleak. Our valleys are a flower garden and our noun tains are covered with timber. Such things could not exist in a cold and rocky country and certainly not in the land of perennial spring." where the sunshine is so intense that people cannot venture outdoors only in the morning and evening. The editor should examine a die tionary and then learn the mean ing of ''plebeian." The object of the order of Odd Fellows is a noble one and true hearted and generous souled men compose the rank and file.

Gold has been found in the little village of Salamanca, New York. Years ago, when the MINER editor was a boy, stories were rife of gold in the hills between an Indian vil- lage named Redhouse and the old town of Bucktooth, but as no one in that country knew anything about mining the matter was never looked into. Of course, the ores are of a low grade, somewhat re- sembling those of the Carolinas.

The wholesale charges of brib- cry that have grown out of the sen- atorial contest in Kentucky, will afford new arguments for those who think that members of the upper house of congress should be chosen by direct vote of the people. The past few months have been much too prolific in scandals of this sort. In fact. it is becoming an excep- tional case for a candidate to be elected to the United States senate without whispers of corruption, if indeed charges of actual bribery are not made The people are be- coming heartily weary of these scandals. It is not at all to the credit Of the senate that so many of its members obtain their seats un- der more or less suspicious circum- stances. There is very little ques- tion that a constitutional amend ment, allowing voters to choose ser- ators as congrrssmen are chosen, would be ratified. It is high time that such an amendment were sub mitted.-San Diego Union.
