Havana. Feb. 23.-The United states

and examined DIR. Honeberger, Pay

ordered at noon, and ii lasted until 80
p. m Several witnesses, whose names
are not now obtainable, were examined
during The afternoon.
Another visit was made 10 the wreck

court. The Captain says he has no
idea of the length OF time the court

penis upon tho testimony and new fea-
lures requiring further nvestigat ton
may develope at any time. Captain
sampson added that sooner or later
every survivor of the Maine will be ex-
amined by the court, which seems 10
Imply that sessions for that purpo,se will
be held at Key West. Although this in
lo:mot!on Is meagre 1t Is abs Iiutely
all Captain Sampson will give TO the
press. The correspondent of the Asso-
ciated Press sees him by appointment
twice daily, but there ~ rigid rule
to observe silence until the facts in the
case have developed through the testi-
mony presented.

Some solicitude was expressed at the
Navy Department over the report Of
Admiral Sicard's health. 1t is said
however. that there was no occasion
lot relieving him now; that the flag
snip New York is not to leave Key

sampson or Captain Taylor can as

ADMIRAL takes the two weeks leave to
recuperate from his malarial fever,
Wnlch he was about to enjoy when he
voluntarily returned TO his place.
"A formal order was made out this
afternoon for Lieutcnant-Comman ander
wainwright to take station at Havana
ana look after the Governments in
terest while the work of raising tho
maine progresses. 1t has been ar
ranged that he shall be substituted on
board one OF the wrecking steamers.
The big double turreted monitor Ter
ror remains under orders to stay in
Hampton Roads until further notice.
1T Is likely that she will be sent to
take the place of the Maine in the
North Atlantic squadron, il not needed

however, are loath TO cucumber the
Dattieships and speedier craft with tho
Terror, as she might retard the execu-

SAYS that trade has not fallen of, but has
increased in several lines Of goods. So far
MS the general puolIc is concerned, the
road has been Of inestimable benefit, and
worth all the years Of work and worry ncc-
essary to secure it. To the farmer the road
has been God send. opening up market
right Mt his door and bringing to an end the
Icing and tedious trips over the mountain to
Frederick with the heavy teams.
The CLARION says: We are IN position
to state our belief, that If left to vote OF
the citizens of Middletown and Willlamsport
the proposition being to take up the rails
and discontinue the service on the electric
road that probably less than five per cent OF
the vote would be favorable thereto. Yes,
Bro. Cassell, it would be far below five per
cent, and we believe unanimous. - Valley

GET THE ROAD The question of build
ing the Frederick and Middlctown Electric
Railroad on 10 Thurmont is being agitated
by the people of that that town, and brother
Csssell, editor and publisher Of the CATocTIN
CLARION, published In Thurmont, like all
good editors is favorable to the road, and OF
course finds opposition. To prove his side
of the question he appeals to the editors OF
Middletown and Williamsport, who have
electric roads running into their respective
towns to give their opinions as to the advan'
tages or disadvantages derived by the roads
For the benefit of brother Cassrll and the
readers of his paper, we will say that if you
wan, to raise storm of indignation among
the majority Of our people just hint that the
electric railroad running from Hagerstown
to this place is to be discontinued. 1t puts us
in closer touch with the people all over the
county and state, and makes Hagris,own
and Williamsport virtually one town. Ii
has brougt a thriving industry here that
meyer would have come and increased oul
population nearly double, and you can say
to your people for us, that nothing will help
theltown so perceptibly as q good electric
railroad, no matter where 1t comes from OF
where it goes to, provided, however, it does
not cost your people too much for construc
ton. Ours only cost the free right of way

Egan's Slap ut the Adjutant Generals
Office-Ludington Heard.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 16.-Before the
military affairs committee of the house,
at the hearing on the Hull army reor-
ganization bill. Quartermaster General
Ludington gave his views of the re-
quirements of his Office for an army of
100000 men. He thought the men who
had borne the heat and burden of the
day in the regular army should be given
preference in promotions over civilians
and volunteers.
Congressman Cox of Tennessee OBJ
served that there had not been any
cheat and burden for the regulars for
30 years past.
Commlssary General Egan gave his
views. He was convinced an army of
100, 900 men needed 81 officers in his de-
partment. Feeding the soldiers well he
considered the first duty of the govern
ment. He did not understand why the
adJutant general Office put the number
at only Is. 1T was done there" he
said, "by some geometrlcal method
that | cannot understand"
