WASHINGTON LETTER.

From Our Regular Correrponden'.)
The administration is not pre-
pared ats this time to 60 further
than to relieve the American cili,
zans in Cuba who are in need, and
by str-nous ellnrts, ably assisted
by Speaker Reed, it succeeded in
keeping Congressional action
down to making the appropriation
Of $1,000 tor that purpose, although
for a time it looked as though Pres.
ident Mckinney would have to act
upon the Morgan resolution declar
ing for the recugn :tiOn OF the BELLS
gelency of the Cubans. The senti-
ment in both branches Of Congress
is overwhelmingly for Cuba, aud
there is little doubt that the PRESS
dent Mckinley shares that senti~
mint, but he doesn't wish to act
just yet. He has plan that is be-
lieved to look towards the absolute
independence Of Cuba rather than
a mere recognition of belIigerency,
but Congress is inpatient, The
Senae will almost certainly adopt
that belligerency resolution and
the House would, 200, if it could
vote upon it, but there isn't much
probability that it will he allowed
to do SO against the wishes of Presi.
Mckinley.
Ex-senator ingalls, who is AT
present in Washington, has lost.
none of his powers Of expression as
may be seen from the following
opinion of the sugar schedule OF
the amended tariff bill, that is to
be taken up by the Senate next
week. 1T is the most brazen and
audacious ho'd up of the century:
1t makes train rLbbrry respectable
1t has no excuse ext ept the insati
able greed and rapacity of tho most
shameless squad OF plunderers that
ever escaped the penitentiary. Or.
binary marauders are content to
rob bank or swindle q communi>
ty. The brig.nds propose to pll-
! lage the nation, and to compel
Congress to become their accOmA
plices. The trust schedules will
destroy competition. ann Initiate the
beet sugar industry, al d add to
the oppressive burdens of every
citizen of the U. S for the avowed
purpose of swelling the already in
ordinate gains OF a remnrsel, s.
monopoly. These are the perfurm
ance that explain populism, and
which if not restrained, Will make
anarchy possible"
Whether the Cuban speech
made by Senator "Billy" Mason
was "exuberant Oratory" as Sena,
tor Hoar called it, or was intended
to frighteu Mr.. Mckinley into lie
slowing more official favors upor
Mr.. Mason's friends, as others hav,

were the most popular. Referring

Car Without Platforms.

Some new and valuable features have
been introduced in the street car de-
signed by Louis T. Pyott of Philadel.
phia, who has recently received patents
both on the car and truck construc-
tion. A car of his design has been
constructed 10 this city. 20 the lay
man the most striking feature of the
car is the fact that it is without plat
forms. There are two openings on each
side. which permit of very ready load
ing and unloading. The arrangement of
the soatH too, is made with view of
facilitating the sotrance and exit of
passengers. There is seating capacity
for 3S persons, with ample room to
carry in all 100 passengers.
10 the mechanic and architect, how
ever. the most striking feature OF the
Pyott car is the truck, which has been
designated as the companion. or
sectional truck" Each pair OF
wheels and ax!es has it's own independ-
emit horseshoe frame pivoted and
connected with the other, thus permit
ting each pa ir OF wheels to independ-
emily follow the rails in any elevation

A representative of The Gazette
Friday spoke to United States Engi.
neer W. +. Smith about the failure of
the 2l-foot channel project for the
Christians, to which he replied:
II am not permitted to suggest new
work, or to urge or recommend appro.
priations Orders to the Departments

had in mind The interests of the harbor,
and while / have not published it, I
have at the proper times personally
urged my friends in Congress and
others of influence to secure proper
provision for an improved navigation.

OF q comm ission in 1890 was largely i'm
fluenced il not wholly brought about
through my initial efforts, with the
view of obtaining an enlarged project.
Tbs results expected from ii, l am

ences with Mr.. Blanchard, the chair.

well, General we'll have to give you

leave the boat after the memorable "trip
OF the comrnittee in this harbor. And
this trip Itself, by tbs way, was, as |
remember it, brought about mainly
through the effortH Of eS-Congressnian
| Causey, after discussion OF the matter
with me, ami by contributions of our
| citizens to dsfray this expenses. is.t
my views then were in favor OF an
| 18.fuot channel, nut yielded in defer
ence to tho wishes Of many OF our
| prominent mou. thought an lS-toot
channel would lie stepping stone to

warrant il, You know il is not an easy
matter to maintain suoh channel.

ing ia hard to get. ! was very anxious

to ask for authority to cut the iock

tion OF channel of that depth, IN the
ground that the cost then for removing

that authority had been granted au

ditions which make any use OF the au.

the estimate to be reduced. The reduce
ton of the estimate would not have
mattered much, as the law and the in
depreciation Of it stood Heretofore. aH
the work could then have been begun
with what funds were made available
and Congress looked to for an increase
of the estimate, when found insult

Thrilling Experience of Yachting Party in
the ChrIstiana River.


A Jolly party consisting at Harry
v. d. Bootes, G. @. Pisrson, Sherwood
Hodson, Eli Shilling and George Car
ter had a thrilling experience ON the
yacht Woponah on Friday afternoon.
They we're sailing out toward the DelaF
ware River and when opposite the
wharf OF the Atlantic Refining 20.
found themselves in an uncomfortable
position.
Tho tug Brammel WIS back OF them
proceeding out ut lively rate and the
steamer City Of Chester was coming in
rather slowly. 1t was seen that to go
on, with the wind blowing from the
southeast, as it was, they must either
90 under the how OF the tug or strike
the City of Chester. They chose the
latter course and by good management
succeeded 10 striking the steamer about
II feet back of the bow. There was no
harsh collision, however, as all OF the
men on the boat put their hands
against the side OF the steamer and
eased the blow.
The yacht was carried along the side
Of the steamer, the men being com !.
PEELED to keep il there on account Of
the appruach OF the tug. When the

that their combined weight would cause

who was at the bow, jumped. They

M by the tug. After tho four had
jumped overheard Mr.. Shilling was en-
abled to manage the boat and he soon
had it away from the steamer and
ready to proceed. His companions were
put aboard and they continued on their
sail to Pennsvile.
All of the men in the water had on
| gold watches, and each ono OF the time
pieces stopped between 325 and 3. &c
o'clock, which showed that the ACCT
deut happened about that time. Mr..
Boutes, who was smoking when be
jumped overheard continued to smoke
until he was back again in the yacht
In speaking Of the accident one Of
the party eaid they did not blame any
of the steamboat men. Ii there wa.
any fault, it should be placed at tbs

reality, the trouble was caused by the
direction Of the wind. which threw thu

made to put in alongside barge, which
