RUIz's CELL PHOTOGRAPHER.
DIR. COngOstO Expected to Arrive at
Washington To-day.

Washington, June l0.-Mr. Calhoun left
the city tonight for his home at Danville,
ILL., He expects to return, probably next
week, or as soon as the President desires
to consult him further regarding affairs
in Cuba. During the day he called at
the state department and had another long
conference with Assistant Secretary Day.
DR.. Congosto, the Spanish consul at
Philadelphia, who, with Consul General
Lee, formed the commission to INQUIRE
into the facts connected with the death
OF DR.. Ruiz, is expected in Washington
tomorrow. He will bring with him prob
ably two reports, one the joint report
signed by himself and Gen Lee, and the
other an individual report such as Gen.
Lee submitted to the state department,
through Mr.. Fishback though not by any
means reaching the same conclusions 1t
is expected that DR.. Congosto's individual
report will go to show that DR.. Ruiz died
IN jail from self-inficted injuries while
sunerlng from temporary alteration of
the mind. and that he was well cared for
during has confinement. 1t is also prob
able that DR.. Congosto has given some at
tention to the subject of the naturaliza-
ton of DIR. Ruiz, and has endeavored TO
snow that there was at least a reasonable
doubt upon that point which justified the
treatment of the case in fashion differ
ent from that usually adopted.
The reports of the commission were illus
trated with excellent photographs show
ing the interior of the cell and Jail at
Guanabacoa, and all of the features of DR..
Ruiz s confinement that will admit of illus
tration. 1t is not the intention of either
side to make these public.
PROBABLY Senor Dupuy de LONE will fur
nish the state department a copy of DR..
Congosto's report and in turn will be fur
nished copy of Gen. Lees report, but
that is as far towards publication as these
documents are likely to go, at least. ac-
cordlng to the intentions of the official
having the matter in charge, until con-
gress shall call for the correspondence.

TRIAL OF THE PORTER,
The Torpedo Boat Covers a Mile in
Less Than Two Minutes.

INC AofpeuO BOat Covers a Mile in
Less Than Two Minutes.
New York, June 10.-The United, States
torpedo boat Porter on Sunday made the
marvellous record of a mile in less than
two minutes with scarcely an effort. To-
day she made the circuit of Long Island
in faster time than it has ever been made
before, and successfully passed the most
severe test that has ever been given a boat
in her class.
Ample preparations had been made for
to-days trial, but the weather conditions
were by no means of the best. The Por-
ter lay at anchor in the river, and at 6
O'Clock a. m. the board of inspection went
aboard. The torpedo boat at once left
her anchorage and made the complete tour
round Long Island, going down through
the sound and returning outside. The
vessel was put under all conditions of
boiler power, and run at various speeds.
but was not let out at any time, the high
est speed for any one hour being q knots.
There was quite a breeze blowing as the
little black flyer passed up through the
sound, but the water was calm, and fast
time was made up to Mantauk Doint
Then a strong easterly wind with a sharp
sea from the fresh Northwestern that had
been blowing was encountered and the run
from the point to Sandy Hook
was a stiff one. The Porter cut through
the white caps like a knife and despite
her high speed scarcely any water was
taken on deck The inspecting board was
landed at Gas p. M, exactly twelve hours
and thirty-five minutes from the time it
started, having made the circuit of the
island, a distance of nearly 800 miles, in
time never approximated before. No mis-
haps occurred, except the breaking of a
small feed pipe, necessitating the use of
salt water for time in one boiler The
board Will tomorrow try torpedoes and

GAME WITH A PITCHING GUN.
Long Delay In ReIOading the Most
serIous ObiectIon.

UUAN1AADAAt
Princeton, NJ j., juno 10.-Prof. Hin
toms patent base bail pitching gun was
decided success to-day. Eight strike out,
one base on balls, one wild pitch and four
safe hits is the record In three innings
I'm the first fair test of the machines prae-
ticabillty in an actual game. Mines repre-
senting the Ivy club and Tigerin. two OF
Prlnceton's social clubs. played a match
game, using the gun TO pitch for both
teams and the game attracted a large
crowd of interested spectators, proml-
nent among whom were Mrs. Cleveland
with party Of friends, and many Prince
ton professors, who came TO see what sue
cess Prof. Hinton's invention would meet.
The gun was discharged by the bats
man who, when ready for the ball TO be
delivered, steps upon an electrical inter-
cepting plate. connected by wires with the
trigger Of the cannon The speed with
which the bali Is thrown is regulated by
compressed air and prong like projectors
from the cannon's mouth impart rotary
motion TO the sphere when discharged,
producing curve in any direction as the
position of the projecting prongs is chang
ed.
There Is but one serious defect In the
operation OF the machine that will prevent
it's use In games, and that Is the long
time required for reloading. This was
especially noticeable in the game.
Three innings only were played. Dur
ing the first inning, the batsmen were
timid about standing near the plate, and
the big cut curves caused them to jump
back, but as the gun threw strikes In
every instance they plucked up courage,
stood closer TO the plate and succeeded
occasionally IN making safe hits The
game was uninterosting, except for the
novelty Of seeing the pitchers box occu-
pied by a machine. The Ivy Club won

GERMANY's GAME IN GREECE.
RumOr That the Kaiser Wants the
Dynasty OverthrOwn.


London, June 1.-THE correspondent of
the Daily Mail at Athens says: Extra
ordinary rumors are current as to the at
titude of Germany. 1t is alleged that the
German government seeks to overthrow
the Greek dynasty and to establish a rig
orous control of Greek finances. In or
der to attain this double object Germany
wants a continuance Of the war and to
have the terms of peace finally dictated
in Athens itself. These statements seem
scarcely worthy of credence, but it is prob
able that Germany viii continue to press
for financial control"
The Constantinople CORRESPONDENT Of tbe
Standard says: AT Tuesdays conference
OF the ambassadors for the discussion of
the terms of peace, Tewhlx Pasha was
present, armed with categorical instruc-
tons to persist In the retention Of Thes-
sally given him by the sultan personally.
When the conference ended the sultan
summoned his special minister to a coun-
ell at the Yildiz kiosk, which lasted until
2 o'clock in the morning of wednesday
The decision arrived at was that the
evacuation OF Thessaly was impossible
but that there was no necessity for Dre-
cipitate action. Being in possession
