years the Westliche Post has shown
the most effective devotion to honor

SH|PBUILDERS' PLUMS.
Naval Bureau Decides Awards For
Torpedo Boats and Destroyers.
NAMES OF LUCKY FIRMS.
Union Iron Works, Maryland Steel
Company, w. n. TriEg 4 Co. and
Bath Iron Works on the List.
Battleship Awards.

Washington, Sept. 9.-The board OF
naval bureau chiefs which has beer
carefully examining the large number
of bids and plans submitted by ship
builders for the construction Of torpedo
boats and torpedo boat destroyers has
almost completed that work and with
in day or two is expected to report to
Acting Secretary Allen plan of dis
tribution of the awards. The work has
been one of difficulty because of the
multiplicity of plans and the originality
displayed by some of the bidders. The
decision arrived lat by the board is to
distribute the craft as follows among
the bidders: s
To the Union Iron works of San Fran
cisco. probably three destroyers; the
Maryland Steel company of Sparrow
Point, four or five destroyers; Neafie &
Davy Of Philadelphia, two or three de-
stroyers; Harlan & HollingswOrth Of
Wilmington, two destroyers; Fall River
Iron company OF Massachusetts, two or
three destroyers; w. R. Trigg & Co. OF
Richmond, one or two destroyers and
three or four torpedo boats; Bath Iron
works OF Maine, three or four torpedo
boats; LawIey OF Boston, one or two
torpedo boats.
Another Of the torpedo boats will go
to either Lewis Nixon of Elizabethport
N. j., or to Herreshoff Of Bristol, r. l.,
while, if the department shall decide to
still further distribute the work and re-
duce the number of boats awarded to
some OF the bidders the Columbian Iron
works OF Baltimore and the Gas Engine
and Power company of Morris Heights,
N. Y, may be awarded one boat each.
The Dattleship Bids.
The board is now about to turn its
attention entirely to close consdera
ton Of the bids recently received for
the construction of three battleships.
So far the "details Of these vessels have
only been examined in a cursory man
ner. but this cursory examination
has made it appear that the problem of
selecting the best designs is going to be
much more difficult than was at first
supposed.
The bureau chiefs appear to have |
widely different opinions as to the re-
spective merits Of the designs, and it is |
within the bounds Of possibility that |
the department will decide not to make |
the awards in accordance with the low |
est bid.
In such a case the Newport News bid,
the lowest. would be thrown out and
two of the three ships would go to
Cramp, the third going to the Union
Iron works. One element in the board
favors rejection Of all of the bids and
the preparation OF new plans, but as
the adoption Of this course probably
would delay the letting Of contracts un-
Ill the assembling of congress and thus
mperil the effort Of the department to
secure further appropriations for ships
1t the approaching session it is not
likely to prevail.

cases OF yellow fever are reported from
Taylor's Station. Three of them are So

incipient black vomit The situation

practically confined to an area ten
miles square in Lafayette and Marshall
counties and is surrounded by a strong

tine against New Orleans will be raised
within few days unless new cases de-
velop. No fear of a general epidemic is
now felt by the board.

Army Scandal.

Just as the country was once agar
settling into the pursuits of peace, anc
the arrangements TO muster out on,
great volunteer army were about com.
pleted there comes TO US from every
quarter OF the globe, the demand for an
investigation Of the wretched method bv
which our soldiers have been treated
during the one sided fight with the late
foe across the seas. When the demand
was made by millions of free born citi
zens' no one expected there would be
the slightest objection on the part of the
officials to have an investigation as it
was expected that none of those who
had done their full duty to the best of
their ability would fear such a consid-
GRAFTON OF their acts. But no sooner
are orders issued for such an inyes,ioa-
tIon' than there comes by the wire the
Interview with General Miles in which
he charges high officials with serious
plumbers and other wicked things. II
the public were startled by these
charges and inclined to look upon the
same with the suspicion held against
wide awake newspaper men who obtain
such interviews, that surprise has given
way to reason since General Miles
reached this country where he repeats
the charges made against the mana GERS
OF the War Department. While every
friend Of the boys in blue will Join in
the loud demand that the truth and the
whole truth be spoken, yet it is with
deep regret that the people of this land
witness the strife between Army and
semi-Arny officers to catch on with the
public, by slandering the other. Cen
eral Miles has been brave fighter in
he days that are gone, he liked to hunt
Indians, he takes just the same pleasure
II looking after incompetent officers.
Now comes the word that Miles is to
'etlre. There is scandal enough con-
lected with the present war, and the
friends of the American Army will hope
hat the brave old fighter will not leave .
he service until he has proved his
harges so recently made. Let General ,
lilies aid the public in clearing up the {
ra9cdy which has been enacted, and let .
i'm bring the guilty man to justice. b
