ther Delay
ALcER SAYS He is PUZZLED
AND WOULD RATHER IMPROVE
THE INNER HARBoR
The Secretary of War Anxious to Do
His Duty and Thinks He
Will Advertise
for Bids

Special to The Herald.
WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator
White called upon the secretary Of war
today and had long interview with him
regarding the harbor matter. The secre-
tary stated that he was in receipt OF
numerous letters and kilograms In rela-
ton to the matter, some Of an Offensive
character, others otherwise: that he in
tended to discharge his duty with view
to the public interest.
Senator White remarked that the re-
peated decisions of harbor boards in
favor Of San Pedro caused the people Of
California to wonder at the delay Of the
department.
The secretary said he is puzzled. He
maintains that the report of the commits
sion provides for the construction Of an
outer wall which will absorb the entire
appropriation, leaving nothing for the
inner harbor; that he is anxious to make
the work complete and would rather see
the whole sum expended upon the inner
| harbor.
Senator White called llie attention to
the fact that by the terms of the act II
an award had been made in favor Of
Santa Monica the proposition Of Col.
Benyaurd, involving the expenditure Of
$500, 900 for development of the inner
harbor would likewise have been carried
out, and that therefore there is nothing
either extravagant or ill-advised In re-
quiring that the inner harbor should be
improved in addition to the construction
of the sea wall. He reiterated the sug-
gestion made by him to the secretary
some weeks ago, to the effect that bids
should be asked. and that it is impossible
to tell what the outer wall will cost until
the matter has been submitted to public
competition. He stated that It was not
expected that the whole sum should be
expended in one year.
Hood. the Southern Pacific engineer.
called upon the secretary some time ago
but Alger says Hood did not converse
about the harbor
Alger said he thought he wouls adver-
tise for bids anyway.
Senator White told him that II the de.
partment did not act within a short time
he would be compelled to introduce 4
resolution asking for an official an
nouncement of the intentions of the de.
partment. The secretary promised to
bring the matter before today's cabinet
meeting.
White is determined that his reason
able demands shall not be ignored.
Senator Frye cVmplains bitterly Of at
tacks made upon him, and says those
making the same are evidently deter
mined to make him fight.

A NEW IRISH LEAGUE
NOT TO BE DOMINATED By THE
AGRARIANS
As Usual Among the Sons Of Erin,
the Movement Causes a Split
and Walkout

DUBLIN, April 20-There was large
attendance Of prominent Parnellites at
the Parnellite convention summoned to
meet in this city by John e. Redmond.
A resolution was adopted providing for
the formation Of an independent Irish
league, In which Agrarian interests are
not to be dominant and which will be
founded upon "the broader and sounder
basis of independent political action for
the benefit of the whole Irish nation"
The object Of the league will be civil
and religious liberty and no further in
reference of priests in politics; absolute
independence of alliances with any Eng
lish party, and reverting to the old de-
mand for coordinate parliaments; the
principle of federalism in Mr.. Gladstone's
home rule proposals and manhood suf-
frage which will give the Parnellites
political majority in Ireland"
The league will also urge the imme-
dIate redress of Irelands financial
grievances, amnesty for all political
prisoners, and law reform and the de-
velopment and encouragement Of labor
ard the industrial resources Of the coun-
try. etc.
A temporary executive committee was
elected to draft the plan Of organization
and to hold office until the Parnellite
convention meets again in October.
Mr.. Redmond opened the conference
with dispassionate speech, showing
that the present condition of the party
needed vigorous reorganization. He re-
ferred to and explained the program as
already outlined and proposed that the
convention in October be attended by
delegates from all branches Of the new
league.
Further, Mr.. Redmond announced his
readiness to resign the Craftsmanship of
the party or, If they preferred, to remain
as all present were invited to indulge in
the freest expression of opinion.
Timothy Harrington Immediately
arose, and in a calm speech objected
absolutely to the formation Of the new
league. Many speakers followed. mostly
In favor Of Mr.. Redmond's position, and
Mr.. Harrington's motion against the
leagues formation was defeated by a
vote of 230 to %.
Mr.. Harrington then left the hall with
his supporters. Mr.. Redmond explained
that It was intended that the party's
members of parliament should control
the league.
In an interview with representative
of the Associated Press after the meet
ing Mr.. Harrington said he could not
indicate his future course until the coun-
try had spoken. He added there was
nothing the league could have done for
Redmond except give him the support
OF the Dewey section in America, which, :"
Mr.. Harrington added. they could if
they chose to finance the new league"

MORE TROUBLE
Port Orchard Drydock squashed by
the Oregon

SEATTLE. April 20.-A rumor that
could not be traced to. any reliable
source was in circula tion here today 70
the effect that the drydock at the Port
Orchard naval station is settling under
he weight of the battleship Oregon. The
story is to the effect that in private con-
versation some of the Oregon's officers
concede that the dock is inadequate to
accommodate ships like the Oregon The
for publication. The difficulty is SAID
to be with the ground formation o. Tic
dock, which. it is said, is not hardpan,
as it should be. Secretary Long may ap-
point a commission to examine and re-
port on the condition of the dock wheile
the Oregon is there. Officers are said to
have expressed an apprehension that
the dock may in course of time become
useless, but this is not believed.

A NEW FACE
Bitter Defeat May Be Turned to
Victory

ATHENS, April 20.-The news Of the
capture Of Damasi puts q new complex
ion upon the situation on the frontier, Is
great encouragement to the govern
ment and Is likely to have the most ex-
hilarating effect upon the spirits of the
Greeks. who had been greatly depressed
by the reverses of their troops at Mi
louna pass. This success and the fact
that the fall of Prevesa seems imminent
virtually offsets the calamity of Milou-
ma. If the Greeh divisions effect union
at Damasi. as is expected, there is al
most nothing in the way of their prompt
advance to Elassona. If Tyrnavo falls
into the hands of Edhem Pasha and the
Turkish troops sweep down upon the
plain and advance to Larissa to meet
the force collected there under the
crown prince they will be between two
grand divisions Of the Greek army. This
seems to have been the object Of the
Greek strategy.
Should the Greeks succeed in reduc-
ing the forts at Prevesa, as now seems
probable, and occupy the town with the
large land force cooperating with the
bombarding warships. the royal road to
Janina will be open and the Turkish
troops in Epirus placed at the most seri-
Gus disadvantage. The strategic value
of Prevesa to the Turkish division In
Albania is that SO long as 1t remains in
the hands of the Turks it makes possi-
BILE t steady line of munitions and food
as supplies.
With Prevesa in the hands of the
Greeks this line would be promptly cut
and it would be practically impossible
to revictual the Turkish troops by the
long land route through Macedonia. On
the other hand the Greek troops could
be revictualed by sea.
1t is stated here in well informed cir.
cles that the eastern squadron of the
Greek fleet, which will shortly be rein
forced by the ironclad Spelzia. is plan
ming an important movement This is
practically directed against Salonica
If this is made with dispatch, it is quite
possible that the Greek ships could
reach the gulf and shell the town OF
Salonica before the Aegean squadron Of
the Turkish fleet could interfere. The OBJ
ject Of such a bombardment would be
to cut off the Macedonia line of supplies
to Edhem Pasha's camp at Elassona
Should the Greek troops advance from
Damasi to Elassona, the line Of Turk
ish supplies could be cut at that point
and render the naval movement unnec-
essary. And 1t II possible that the bril-
liant success ct DamAd will cause Z

modification in the sea program of the
Greeks. Taking general survey of the
field tonight (midnighD the fortunes Of
war thus far are pretty evenly divided,
but the chances for the immediate fu-
ture are decidedly in favor of the
Greeks.

A Shortage Of Cattle.

One popularity of the past winters
cattle trade has been the disposition of
feeders to sell their stock as soon as
it was in any kind of shape for mar
ket, says National Stockman. Compar-
atively few have kept cattle in the feed
lot until they were fully finished. This
was entirely unexpected in view OF the
abundance of feed and the difficulty
of marketing ii in any other way. II
has, however, prevented any ccumu
lation Of cattle TO food the market dur
ing the latter part Of the season. al
wal the case last year. There IS no
~oVer-supply Of cattle in sight. Feed
lots are not as full as they were a year
ago. either east or west. DistilIeries
hold comparatively few, many OF these
establishments having been shut down.
There is, too, a shortage Of butcher stuff
on farms, which is pushing local
s~laughterers into market for cattle or
20 the use Of dressed beef. Cows and
seifers are unusually scarce at market
points, affording an outlet for more
butcher steers. On the whole there
does not seem to be anything to inter-
fere with a good market for heavy
steers during the remainder OF what
may be called their season, and for
handy ard medium weights thereafter.
II the advancing tendency in other live
stock is continued it would not be sur
prfsing to see cattle selling higher
within the next sixty days. There is
nothing in sight to justify any boom.
but an advance Of 50 cts. per 100 lbs.
IS considered within the bounds OF Dos
sibility by a good many cattle men.
Time alone will tell whether their fore
casts are correct.
