BATTLESHIP BADLY DAMAGED
MASSACHUSETTS AGROUND IN
NEW YORK RARBoR.
Three of Her Compartments Were
Torn Open and the Vessel Settled
Below the Water Line.

Washington, Dec. 10.-A telegram
received at the navy department to-
day from New York says that the bat
tleship Massachusetts, soon after leav-
ing the New York navy yard today for
Hampton Roads, struck an obstruction
near Governors island and three of her
compartments were torn open. She was
taken back to the navy yard at once,
and has been placed in dock to ascer-
tain the extent of her injuries. Her
commander is Captain Nicol Ludlow.
New York, Dec. 10.-At the command
ants Office at the navy yard the re-
ported accident to the battleship Mas
sachusetts was confirmed. The Massa-
chusetts has already sunk about two
feet below her regular water line, but
is not believed to be in any danger of
sinking. She is not yet in dry dock, but
1t IS hoped will be successfully locked.
Pilot Bell, who was taking the Mas
sachusetts out, said the tide was I'M
usually low and that the Massachusetts
while on her way to the Tompkinsville
anchorage struck the bottom. She did
not, he said, run on diamond reef"
which is off Governors island. Further
than this Bell refused to talk.
The battleship was made fast at the
navy yard dock at the foot of Main
for her reception, but arrangements
to this end viii be accelerated. The
injured vessel has a slight list to port.
She has sunk forward about ten inches
above the water line. At her stern
about ten inches of her water line is
above water. The pumps are kept go
ing steadily and it was said that there
were about four feet of water in five
Of her compartments.
The accident recalls several others of
a similar character in the vicinity,
which has given rise to the grim naval
joke that there is q floating rock adrift
there, lying in wait for men of war.
The regulations require a court of in
quiry in such cases and it is presumed
that one will be ordered on the appli-
cation of Captain Ludlow just as soon
as the examination in dry dock reveals
the extent Of the damage

PASSPORTS NOT NEEDED NOW
They Are Really Required In Russia
and Turkey Only.
CTit-Bits)


There are few countries in which
travellers now require passports in or
der to promote their convenience and
security. In Brazil and Venezuela a
passport must be shown to the Off
Gals before one is allowed to leave the
country for a foreign port. This is
veXatious measure, enforced, apparent
ly, for the sake of enabling a few Off
Gals to collect small fees.
In Russia passport regulations are
enforced with great stringency. No
traveller is allowed to enter the empire
until he has obtained passport and
convinced the Russian consular officers
at the port from which he sails that he
is neither a Roman Catholic priest nor
a Hebrew. The question ordinarily
asked is: What is your religion?" but
it is designed to provide against the
entry of either of these two classes.
When the traveller arrives at a Rus
sian port with a passport, which has
been properly vised and countersigned
at a consular Office, it is critically eX-
amined by police officer and duly reg
istered.
At the entrance of the hotel another
police officer takes possession of the
document, and in the course of twenty
four hours returns it with a permit
for a limited residence in the country.
When the traveller departs Tor an
other city in the empire, he must have
the passport countersigned by the po-
lice. This process continues until he
reaches the frontier, which he cannot
cross unless the passport has been vi
sed and stamped by the police. Not.
infrequently tourists are stopped at the
frontier, and subjected to serious in
conveniences because they have neg
lected to comply with the police regu-
Iations respecting passports.
All this red tape causes annoyance
and irritation among tourists, who are
apt to overlook the fact that Russians,
as well as foreigners, are compelled to
observe these police regulations. 1t is
the business of the police to know
where everybody lodges. A permit is
required if a native removes from one
quarter of a town to another. Every
body is registered by the police when
he arrives or departs, and foreigners,
when they are in Russia, are dealt with
on equal terms with residents.
The same system prevails in Turkey,
where it is not practicable for a for
eigner to travel without a passport
Elsewhere in Europe passports are not
required. They are relics of a bygone
neriod when communications between
countries were slow and infrequent.
Now that all nations are drawn to-
gether by the ties of constant inter
course. a passport is out of date, ex-
cept in countries like Russia and Tur-
key.

One day his attention was brought to
the fact that the unsupported coffee was
very likely the cause of his trouble, and
it was suggested that if he would use
Postum Food Coffee and induce the
good wife to be particular to boil it
long enough to extract the delicious
flavor and the elements which go to
rebuild the broken down nerve centers,
his trouble would be gone.
This was two years and a. half ago,
and since that time not a pound of
coffee has been purchased by the min
listers family. Morning, noon and night
Postum makes its appearance on the
table, and is enjoyed by all. With the
departure of coffee went the minister's
bad feelings, and with the coming of
Postum came a feeling of exhilaration,
a better appetite and a constantly in
creasing weight.
From the start, the minister's Pos
tuln has been properly made, because
of the warning
AT one time during the absence of
housewife, the domestic, not being
particular about preparing Postum ac-
cording to directions. made it weak
and insipid, which we find is a very
common complaint among those who
do not understand that there is no way
to extract the delicious flavor from
Postum except by long boiling. Made
properly, it is clear, black. and has
a crisp, pungent, fascinating taste
Occasionally the minister has been
induced to drink a. cup of coffee at
weddings, parties, etc, but many
sleepIess hours Of the night are passed
in consequence. This is a true expe-

novel proposal to force the government
to obtain PicquartS release suggesting
a strike Of ali the intellectual profess
sions, teachers refusing to teach; those
who are officers of the reserve and ter
ritorial army sending in their resigna-
tons, and artists and manufacturers
who are preparing for the exhibition of
1900 withdrawing.
IN the meanwhile Picquart remains
in the Cherche Midi prison, and is
fairly comfortable. He occupies a large
first-foor room overlooking the street,
and is allowed to write and receive
many letters. He buys his own food
at a restaurant, and the prisoner has
just had a windfali in the shape of a
legacy from an uncle, a banker,
amounting to thousands of pounds ster-
ling. There is some serious talk of
running him as q candidate for the
senate at, the next election for the
Seine. This in itself is an indication of
the change of Partisan feeling.
EXPOSITION POSTPONEMENT.
Very discouraging rumors are afoat
regarding the prospects of the Paris
exposition of 1900. But little real prog
ress has been made on the huge build
ings, and it is thought possible the ex-
position may be postponed until 1901,
though the latter course would meet
with intense opposition and inhict Sc
we're and widespread losses. President
Faure has personally visited the site
and endeavored to stimulate the work
But, what with the recent strike and
certain difficulties between the munidi-
pality and the government, the pros
poets of it's completion in time are none
of the brightest. Moreover, the Metro
politan railroad cannot now be ready
for 1900. The foreign exhibitors have
been seriously affected by the decision
of the Paris appeal court on rejecting
the suit of a Swiss embroiderer against
a French manufacturer who copied his
designs. The effect of the decision is
that designs and patterns in the for
eign exhibits of 1900 may be copied with
impunity by French manufacturers I'M
less the exhibitors possess a Inanufac-
tory in France.
The Gil Bias reports that Emperor
Francis Joseph of Austria intends to
marry Princess Isabel of Orleans, third
daughter of the late Count of Paris.
1t is said that Spain has resolved to
give permission tor the cultivation of
tobacco in the Spanish provinces. This
will increase the revenue of Spain and
she will also revenge herself on the
Americans, as the Spanish tobacco is
expected to seriously compete with the
American-grown weed.

Ordnance Bureau.

INTERESTING TESTIMONY BE
FORE TILE COMMISSION.
Secretary of War Bought 10000
Winchester Rifles, In Spite of the
Disapproval of Ordnance Experts,
and Rapid-fre Guns That Had
Not Stood the Test.

Washington, Dec. 10.-Major Valery
Hazard, chief surgeon of the depart
ment of Santiago, who went with the
first expeditionary force under General
Shafter as chief surgeon of the cavalry
division, testified before the war inves-
tigating commission today that his
medical supplies on landing at Siboney
were adequate for the needs of the cav
airy for perhaps a fortnight, but not
longer. 1t was impossible at first to
unload any supplies, and, leaving some
one in charge with instructions to do
his best to get out supplies, he hurried
forward without supplies, to the front,
as battle was impending. He made
every effort to get supplies landed, but
the difficulty was great, and he could
get no boat to reach the transport Rio
Grande for this purpose. AT the Sec
ond division hospital the medicine,
dressing and stinulants were sufficient,
but the bedding, food, ETC., were made
quate.
He admitted that some regiments in
the Santiago campaign were not sup
piled sufficiently with medical officers.
At the battle of Siboney the wounded
he said, were transferred back to the
division hospital by improvised Filters
bulance wagons.
Surgeon Harvard said he was chief
surgeon in command after July %, and
that to his knowledge no transports
carrying the sick had been sent away
improperly supplied. Going back to the
difficulty in getting at supplies, he said
he believed first, the transports were
not properly loaded when sent to Cuba;
second, that there were no adequate
e, 40
equate means of carrying supplies to
the interior
General F'lagler, chief of the bureau
of ordnance, testified concerning the
condition of the coast defenses at the
time war was declared, and advocated
keeping a greater supply of guns and
ammunition on hand This testimony
was followed by the subjoined series of
interrogatiOns and answers:
Were you interfered with in any way
by any superior officer in making your
contracts for supplies for the ordnance
Department."

Yes
Were they successful?"
''Well, one type, a wire-wound gun,

Questioned as to the rifles contracted
for without his approval, General Flag
Ter said they were purchased by the
secretary of war, and while not GER
tain, he presumed they were on the
recommendation of the general of the
army The commission then adjourned
over until Monday.

M,KINLEY's MEssAGE.

President Mckinley'S message to con-
gress and Secretary Cages report are
both warmly discussed in the Weeklies.
The Speaker thinks British ship
builders will reap a temporary advan-
tage from Secretary Cages proposals,
since most of the ships wanted in the
near future Will have to be built in
Great Britain, and the restrictive laws
protecting American shipbuilding must
be relaxed to permit their entry. More
over, it is claimed Americas CONNER
cial development viii eventually
weaken her protectionism.
The Speaker concludes with saying:
1.-THE salient result of the message is
the recognition of Americas place as a
maritime power. Unless We greatly
sapprehend the American character
and capacity, it can hardly fail to BEN
eft the world at large"
The Spectator urges that the dignified
course of consenhng to. the abrogation
of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty without
compensation would show the world
that Great Britain can, in the case of
it's kin. think of their interests as well
as of her own. The paper then sug-
gests as the only conditions of abroga-
ton that the United States should have

that the dues be the same for all.
DREYFUS DEVELOPMENTS.
The latest developments in the Drey-
fus affair all tend in favor of Dreyfus.
and public opinion in France is I'M
doubtedly veering to his side. The de-
cision Of the court Of cessation, which
postponed the Picquart courtmartial
Indefinitely, is a damaging blow to the
military party. and the attempt to dis
credit his evidence has failed. A few
violent anti-revision organs Shrek
against the decision as a judicial coup
detat, but its general reception in
Paris was favorable.
Great efforts are being made to Sc
cure Picquart's provisional release, but
the court of cessation has no power to
order it.

LIBERAL LEADERSHIP.

The question of the Liberal leader
ship, which has been in allegiance, came
to the front this week in the form of a
notice by the Nottingham Liberal as
sociation that it will raise the matter
at the meeting Of the National Liberal
federation, on Dec. 16. A lively discus
sion is expected, though it is under
stood the officials will try to shelve the
the matter.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt's posi-
ton in the nominal leadership of the
Liberal party is insecure, because it
has not been definitely established by
the united voice of the party. and it re-
ceived a rude shaking when Lord Rose
berry, emerging from temporary re-
tirement, delivered that bold Fashoda
declaration which resolved itself into q
bid for the leadership. The Unionists
are rubbing their hands with undis-
guised glee at the prospect of a fight
between the Harcourites and Roseber-
ryites, which may split the Liberal
party.
