NAVAL APPRENTICES.
What Is Required of Candidates by
the Government

Naval apprentices, third class, are
enlisted on board the receiving ships at
the large navy yards on both coasts,
says the Harpers' Round Table They
must be between the ages of fourteen
and seventeen, have the consent OF
their parents and guardians. and agree
to serve until they are twenty-one
years of age. To enter they must be OF
robust frame, intelligent, and, as the
regulation goes, "be of perfectly sound
and healthy constitution, free from any
physical defects or malformation, and
not subject to fits" They must be
able to read and write, though in spe-
cial cases where the boy shows a gen.
eral intelligence, he may be enlisted.
Notwithstanding that his reading and
writing are imperfect. No boy who
has been convicted of crime or is Of
known bad character can be enlisted.
Upon enlistment he receives his out
fit, and is entered upon the ships books
as entitled to monthly payment of SO
and a ration

WAITING TO HEAR FROM LEE.
Department Expects Full Informa-
tion as to BIane0ssl Policy.


NEW YORK, Nov. ia dispatch
to the Tribune from Washington says:
Important advices are, expected from
Consul General Lee in Havana this
week. BY this time it is thought some
idea should be had as to whether Gen.
Blancos policy is causing Improvement
in the condition of the starving recon
centradoes. The prospects of negotia-
tions between the Spanish authorities
and the insurgents may also be deter
mined by the presence of Gen. Lee. The
insurgent leaders have already stated
Enthusiastically that they Will not accept
autonomy. Little hope IS felt in ad-
ministration circles that they will
change their minds.
Nevertheless, an intimation has been
thrown out that Gen. Gomez and his
associates in the field We're waiting an
opportunity to communicate with the
representatives Of the United States.
Their position is said to be that, as
this country has offered it's good Offices
to Spain to end the war, it s colnpe-
tent to receive a suggestion from other
paI ties to the war. While the insnr-
gents have not receiy "a recognition as
belligerents, they want to be treated as
such in making a proposition for peace
An inkling Of their purpose has been
received. This is to make known
Tie COIoul SoCl1CI oil lIlGlE O6-
sire to have the United States act as
intermediary with Spain in arranging
the terms of peace. but peace on the
basis of independence. This is meant
as a counter movement to the proffer
of autonomy. Spain has already de-
clared that Cuba cannot buy independ-
ence, but the insurgents do not care
for that. While strengthening them
selves in the field. they intend to do
some diplomatic fencing.
No special instructions were given
Gen. Lee, as full confidence is felt in
his discretion. A proposition from the
insurgents for mediation by the United
States on the basis suggested might be
transmitted to Washington, but it
would hardly go further. The feeling,
based on pretty accurate information,
is that before long both the Sagasta
ministry and the insurgents will be
availing themselves of the good offices
of this country, though just how this
will come about is uncertain. Some
sanguine officials predict peace within
three months.

BULLET COVERS.
New Process by Which Lead Balls

The discovery of secret solution by which
leaden bullets may be coated so as to render
them superior to steel-encased bullets is an

Edward Gerry. surveyor Of Springfield.

leaden bullets. when used in the Krag -Jorgen-

and the lead has cIung to the barrel Of the

results showing the remarkable efficiency OF
the new and secret preparation. Thus at a
distance of thirty yards. they bored a hole
through an AK blade. and also through a

MoMENToUs QUESTION.
Park COmissiOners to Settle The
Matter of Skating.

The board Of park commissioners
will this afternoon give its final decis-
ion upon the matter of public skating
There are practically three questions
to be considered: That there be skat-
ing only in Central park; that there
be skating in Central park, Powder
horn park, Van Cleve park and Todd's
pond; that there be no skating at all.
The motion to be considered is one
introduced by Commissioner Deming,
that there be skating in Central park
only. An amendment includes thesoth-
er parks named.
Minneapolis skaters are taking con-
siderable interest in the matter, and
will closely watch the outcome. At
this time it cannot be foretOld what
the board will do in the matter. Sew
eraI of the commissioners believe that
the boards present finances do not
warrant such action this year. Still,
ten policemen have been retained, and
1t is urged by such as were instru-
mental In securing their retention that
they should be given employment. The
third class within the board is willing
to compromise, and have skating in
one park.

Young Peoples Society of Plymouth
Church Celebrates.

The tenth anniversary of the organization
of the Y. P. S. c. E. of Plymouth Church
was appropriately observed at the church
service last evening. The nrAsident of the
society, H. B. Hendley, read an interesting
paper showing how the present membership
of over 100 had it's nucleus in four earnest
Endeavorers, who met in 1887 and organized
the first society of the kind in the city.
Miss Carrie Holbrook, state secretary of
the Christian Endeavor union, delivered an
interesting address showing the work the So
cieties have accomplished in this state, and
making a plea for earnest and conscientious
work in the future. Miss Holbrook illustrated
her remarks by many pathetic stories. The
pastor Rev. David N. Beach, closed the SER
vices, complimenting the society on the good
1t had accomplished.
There will be a special anniversary social
Tuesday evening, at which reports will be
read of the society and It's work.

The WEEK'S STOCK MARKET
Rich Harvest That the Bears Have
Been Reaping.
Speculation Regarding the Fnture-
Yesterdays Dealings Fairly
Active nnd Strong.

New York, Nov. 6-The stock market,
owing to speculative conditions, has been
unusually susceptible this week to un-
favorable developments and sensational
reports 81 a disturbing character.
A view of the recent elections that has
not vet been accorded the importance 1t
deserves. is that the various nodifications
OF the vote polled last year are likely
to MAKE the party i'll power at Wash
ington exceedingly conservative in its
treatment of questions affecting tie busi-
ness Interests OF the country.
The approaching session Of Congress may
possibly he called upon TO discuss seriously
the relations between this country and
Spain. but at present there are no indica
tons of such contingency. As a mat.
ter Of fact the Cuban situation, So far
as IL has o bearing upon business or
speculation, has been enormously exag-
gerated, until il would seem 10 be sensi-
BILE for even Wall street speculators To
regard the subject upon q rational ,,asis.
Today'S market was fairly active and IN
the main strong. This was due In part To
the covering Of shorts at the end OF "A Week
in which prices had declined pretty stead
ny. London was Z moderate buyer, and
commission houses also purchased fair
amount of stocks. A significant feature OF
tie trailing was decreased demand for odd
lots, that is. for amounts less than 100
shares. The borrowing demand for stocks
| indicates that a fairly large short interest
has hcen created. Speculation was in
| flUenced co an extent today by expectations
! that the Supreme Court viii hand down on
Monday 2 decision sustaining the views OF
| the lower courts that the Nebraska maxi
mum raUe law is unconstitutional.
The weekly statement of averages of
tie associated banks shows a further in
! crease IL the loans, resulting. probably
/ from additional bor owihgs upon sterling
bills.
