NAVAL ORDERS.
Assistant Paymaster Tobey Goes From the
Montauk to the Marcellus.

In the last list o: naval orders Issued
by the department. there are several Of
interest to Portland people. Assistant
Paymaster Eugene Q. Tobey, who was
one of the Portland boys who Joined the
crew of the Montauk at the outbreak of
the war, has been detached from that YES
sell and ordered to the Marceilus. AS the
Montauk is expected to go out Of commits
sion in a few days the transfer of Mr..
Tobey to another vessel at this time
would seem to the landsman to indicate
that the government has some further use
for his services. Lieutenant u. L. Rea-
mey, who was the first officer to COM
mand the Montauk during her stay in
Portland, has been detached from the
East Boston and ordered to the bureau Of
yards and docks. The East Boston is q
converted ferry boat intended for use on
the blockade but the end of hostilities
came before she had reached the scene of
operations Chief Engineer II. W.
Spangler, who also served on the Mon
tauk, has been detached from the East
Boston and ordered home. Lieutenant
Clifford, who was detached from the
Montauk some time ago and ordered to
the Rainbow, is still serving on that YES
sell, which is being fitted out as distill-
ing snip at the Brooklyn navy yard.

AS FOREIGN TERRiT DRY.
The Treasury Department Regards the
Philippines.

Washington, Setember 3.-In response
to communication from the State De-
partlnent stating the desire of Mr.. VIII
liams to resume his consular post at Ma.
Mia. Philippine islands, end making GER
tain inquiries of diplomatic as well as
commercial interest," Secretary Gage to-
day sent the following to the Secretary OF
State:
"I have the honor to acknowledge the
receipt of your letter of the first inst in
regard to the resumption by Mr.. Will
liams of his duties as United States con-
sui at Manila, which were discontinued
on account of the recent war with
Spain. You suggest that the regulations
of the treasury as to the goods imported
into the United States from Manila may
require thu performance of acts similar tc
those which he formerly performed when
in the exercise of his consular functions
and stating that you are not advised as tc
adopted in regard to the importation OF
goods from places in our military occupa-
lions. In reply have to inform you that
no special regulations have been adopted
as to the importations from places in pos
session of our military authorities in
Porto Rico, Cuba and the Philippines
and no questions have been raised In re-
gard thereto or considered, although
some importations from Porto Rico have
been made into the port of New York.
AS such places are regarded as foreign
territory, importations from there are
dutiable under the law and the require
menst as to consular certitication OF IN
voices are still in force on such goods. Ii
practicable in the present condition OF
affairs, this department Is of the opinion
that the resumption by Mr.. William as
duties as consul at Manila would be ad-
vantageous to commerce and the revenue.

unlock the door from the inside. The
contents of chest were scattered about
but nothing of value taken. The bur-

FIFTY DEATHS IN ONE DAY.
Terrible sufferings From the Heat
New York.

New York, September 3.-Fifty dead
and over 100 prostrations in one day was
the record of the heat in this city today.
The sun beat relentlessly on the sweiter-
ing city all day long, and though thunder
storms and showers cooled the ebmos-
phere outside the limits of Greater New
York, none came to abate the tefriSie
heat within the city's connnes' Nisn0
followed almost like day ana the uea0iiS
from the heat were reported at Intervals
in the various city hospitals, police mead
Quarters and the coroner's office. A COOL
wave, accompanied by showers ana tnun-
der storms is the representation for TO-
morrow night, but until then no rellef is
expected.
The highest point reached by the Their
moneter today was at o'clock when the
mercury registered 90 degrees. The
humidity averaged S5 per cent.
Day broke with the city enveloped in
a. sea of haze after night of torture
Sleep was a mockery even for those who
had big rooms, electric fans and great
pitchers of cooling beverages. What it
was to the poor may be imagined from
the facts that the Brooklyn trolleys took
1000 persons down to Coney island after
midnight. to sleep on the beach, and that
the local lines did as big business In
the early morning hours as they usually
do in the rush of the day.
Every foot of space along the water
front was taken up, but even there the
faint breeze brought only added waves OF
heat, and babies moaned and women
wept as the nerve-racking night wore on.
Even at the seashore there was no re-
ief. Thousands went to Coney is lano OF
some other seaside resort for breeze.
They Gid not find it, however. Inc sun
baked down upon the white sands and
blistered them. The beaches during the
night were turned into beds for the
crowds. They took of their coats and
used them for pillows, They resembled
huge camps.
In New York the night was one of
awful torture. Sleep was out OF the ques'
ton. Many persons sat on their stoops
and dozed, but sat and perspired until
the pearl gray haze of the morning
warned them against another day of dis
comfort had arrived.
The real horror Of ths heat wave was
seen in the tenement houses, children
dying from exhaustion in the arms of
their mothers, who were equally weary.
Their pitiful cries disturbed the stiffness
of the night. The moans of the babies
who were sutfocating added to the dis
tress. No where in the city was 1T as
hot as in the tenements, with their fetid
odors and general air of uncleanliness.
The parks were occupied all night by
families who found it too hot at home.
When the sun rose this morning. red
and fierce, its rays fell upon vapor. and
soon the city was sweltering again.
NINETY IN BOSTON.
Boston, September S.-The thermometer
reached 90 today at noon and held the
mark until nearly O'Clock when under
the influence of the breath from the sea
1t dropped nearly 20 degrees At 10
O'Clock it was 70, with clear sky and
an invigorating atmosphere.
