Early adjournment of Congress
Pressed BY House Leaders.
SOME ADVERSE REASONS
PRINCIPAL ONE BEING THE UN-
SETTLED CUBAN QUESTION.
One of the Best Indications of Early
Adjournment Is the Preparation
of the General Deficiency Bill, Al
ways Held Back Until the Last
May 1st Suggested.

Washington. March 15.-The Republi-
can leaders OF the house are pressing
for an early adjournment. and it is said
that their course meets the full ap-
prevail of the president
All save three of the appropriation
bills have gone to the senate. The
postoffice bill was taken up in the house
today. and the appropriations and navy
committees are working daily 10 get
the last two bills, the general deficiency
and naval. into the house. The action of
the appropriations committee in pre-
pairing the general deficiency bill at
this time is the best evidence of the in
tention of the leaders to secure an
early adjournment. This bill is always
held back until the last, as it contains
all the odds and ends and usually is
not reported until more or less def
mite understanding as to the final adj
journment has been reported
May has been fixed by several prom
inent house Republicans as the date
beyond which the session probably will
not be prolonged.
The Democrats of the house generally
favor an early adjournment, although
there is not unanimity among them on
this point. Neither is there a complete
harmony on the KepuDllcan SIDE or the
house as to an early adjournment.
Many of the Republicans believe that
congress should remain in session until
the Cuban question is finally and eff
fectually closed up. but they would
hardly go to the extent of opposing the
wish of the leaders and the admins
tration.
1t is admitted on the house side that
the question of carrying out this ar
rangement viii depend entirely upon
the attitude of the senate.

STATES WILL FIND a WAY.
No Federal Money at Hand to Equip
the Militia.

Washington, March 15.-Inspired by
the war sentiment prevailing in many
parts of the country, officers of state
military organizations have been in
curing of the war department as to
allotmentS of arms, ammunition, etc
mere is an annual appropriation ag-
gregating about $4,000 allotted among
the militia of the several states, ac-
cording to their numerical strength,
and the money granted may be eX-
pended for any branch of the service
desired. That feature which has re-
ceived some attention lately relates to
the artillery field pieces, only a few
states having been supplied with this
necessary adjunct TO successful mill
tary service. The military organiza-
tons, as a rule, have been satisfied
with the ordinary Napoleon 12-pounder
brass cannon, which fires a solid ball,
but their use has been almost entirely
discarded in the regular army. OF
late years New York, Illinois, Pennsyl-
vania- Vermont, Utah and a few other
states have been furnished with the
new field artillery pieces used by the
war department in it's service. The Off
Gals are prompt to accede to the re-
quests of the military organizations if
their allotment of the annual appro-
priations made by congress is not ex-
hausted, but in the absence of any
money on hand to the credit of the
states. no equipment of any character
can be given them.
The artillery strength of the state
military organizations in time of peace
is four field pieces and in time of war
six field pieces.

REWARD OF MERIT.
One Good the War Crisis Will Effect,
If Nothing Else.

New York. March ia special to the
Herald from Washington says:
President Mckinley and Secretary Long
Will unite today in an effort 10 start the
Roosevelt naval reorganization bill on its
passage through congress. Never was
the necessity for reorganization more APP
parent than now, when the navy is max
ing preparations for d possible conflict
with Spain. In the first place the service
is short of both line and engineer officers.
and in the second, il is recognized that
to secure harmonious action there should
be a wiping out of all differences between
the line and engineers by the amalgama-
ton between the two corps. Engineer
in Charge Melville, representing the en-
gineer corps and representative officers
of the line, urged upon the secretary the
advisability of impressing upon the pres
ident the desirability of joining with him
in advocating the passage of the Roose-
welt reorganization bill which was drawn
up by a board of officers representing the
several factions of the two corps. This
bill provides for amalgamation of the
line and engineers. that when the num-
Der of officers to be promoted is so far
in excess of the vacancies as to cause
stagnation in the service the requisite
number of vacancies shall be caused by
wedding out the men who are less fit for
meeting the heavy requirements of mod
ern naval duty and that the enlisted men
aboard ship shall be given the same re-
ward of pension and retirement enjoyed
by their brethren who fight ashore, while
the uppermost machinists are made war
rant officers to rank with the gunners
and carpenters.

EVERYTHING IS LOVELY.
No Foundation For War Talk, Accord
ing to This Writer.

New York, March ia dispatch to
the Herald from Madrid says:
There is absolutely nothing here re-
fecting any foundation for panicky con-
ditions of mind. The ministry is tran
gull, and General Woodford bears his
| nest genial fair weather smile, unsug-
gestive of impending trouble
1t IS noted that mis- family, consist
ing OF Mrs. and Miss Woodford and
Miss Games, talk of leaving Madrid
for holiday next winter, but not be-
fore. The imDossibiiity of anyone
knowing the result of the Maine inquiry
is recognized, because the integrity of
American naval officers is too well
known TO allow q supposition that any
OF the court, sworn 10 secrecy, would
disclose the nature of the deliberations
over the case. It is now expected that
the report will not be forthcoming for
some time, and that then it will be
proved that the disaster was accidental
But II anything further is needed to
show that the American press and the
stock exchange jingoes and other peo-
pie are entirely out in their reckoning
in imagining that a crisis is impending
II is presented in the fact that at the
present moment the council of minis
ters is sitting and considering faYorably,
you ma- be assured, the request from
the United States government present
ed General Woodford, TO extend the
decree of 1896. so long as the present
unsettled condition of affairs continues
in Cuba.
The decree was one issued in the
spring of the above named year, on
the presentation of the United States
government 1t ordered that mort
cages should not be forecloSed and
taxes collected against property in the
districts occupied by the insurgents.
This was because it was not believed
just to enforce such liens against prop
erty which the Spanish government
could not then protect against the in
sGrgents.
The American minister. in asking for
the renewal, points out that the decree
Will expire by its own limitation on
March p. There is no doubt that the
Spanish government will promptly do
this act OF justice.
1t does not need diplomatic genius to
read that this simple request shows
the attitude of the United states gov
ernment.

ANGLo-AMERIcAN ALLIANCE.
Genial Reference to the Proposition
at London BANQUET.

London, March 16.-The Honorable Ar
tillery company of London gave a banquet
last night to Messrs. Hedges, Ferris,
Lewis, of the Boston Honorable Artillery
company, the Earl of Denbigh presiding.
Among the guests were Consul General
eral Westcott and Lieutenant Colonel
Wells naval attache of the United States
embassy. Lord Denbigh in toasting The
President of the United States, Equally
Honored In England and America" said:
we all deeply SymDathiZe with Amer
lea in the sad national disaster that be-
fell the Maine. President Mckinley, cool
and level-headed. is not likely to run his
country into any unnecessary danger,
while as an honorable man he must be
jealous of the honor of his country
Consul General Osborne. who received
an ovation on rising to reply to the toast,
referred to the talk of an Anglo-Amer-
lean alliance and testified to the friend
snip existing between the two countries.
He said he did not believe that either
needed protection. unless against a COM
binatlon OF powers, but should that COM
olnation ever occur, he was confident that
the protection would be generously given.
MIR. osborne expressed the opinion that
the strained relations between the United
states and Spain would soon be removed
me Daily News. commenting this morn
Inc on the speech of Consul General Os-
borne. says:
What we have done in this country
is to give public notice that the combina-
tons OF European powers whereWith the
United States are daily threatened on
the continent do not include and never
will include our kindred selves Blood
shows itself thicker than water in little
neighborly reminders of that sort and
the occasion really does not demand more
But If it demanded more, more would
be said and we firmly believe all that
the Americans happened to consider need
full would also be done"

COURT OF INQUIRY.
Sailed Last Night For Key West
What Sampson Says.

Havana, March 1.-THE Mangrove,
with the court of inquiry on board,
sailed tonight for Key West. Captain
Sampson, president of the board as
sured the Associated Press cOrrespOn-
dent that the decision to leave Havana
was not reached until this afternoon,
after a consultation of the members. 1t
was decided that, while further teSti-
mony might be obtained here, this was
not sufficiently likely to justify a, longer
stay. The court can return if the divers
or Wreckers make discoveries that add
to the stock Of knowledge now gath
cred.
The plans of the submerged wreck, in
the preparation of wnlch Ensign Pow
elson has had a large share, are very
elaborate, and Captain Sampson says
the testimony and records of the divers
are very full.
Captain Sampson hopes the court will
be allowed to resume its sittings on
the battleship Iowa, now near Key
West, with the New York. All of the
officers of the court except Judge Ad-
vocate Mark are stationed on the Iowa.
or the New York and on the former
the court could be absolutely free from
interruption The greater part of the
investigation that remains will consist,
unless the court returns here, of a
careful study of the plans.
essary again to summon the survivors
of the Maine. officers or men, now at
Key West, or scattered throughout the
country. Captain Sampson said, how
ever, that any such would be sum-
moned if the revision of the testimony
showed missing links in the chain that
they could supply.
The court has no prophecy to make
as 10 the further duration of its sit
tings or as to when or where the find
ingS will be promulgated. Captain Sigs-
bee will probably remain here with
Lieutenant Commander Wainwright TO
superintsnd the wrecking on behalf of
the government. Chaplain Chadwick
is expected to remain TO care for any
bodies that may be recovered. AT least
no orders have been received to the
contrary when this dispatch was sent.
The court called upon Consul General
Lee this afternoon to bid him farewell
and subsequently Captain Sigsbee paid
a visit TO the court.
Wreckers have recovered one of the
battleship Names 6-pound guns and
VIII proceed to take up 6-inch rifles in

L is reported here that the Spanish
cruiser Nizcaya, at the request of the
Spanish residents of Mexico, will visit
Vera Cruz. 1t is further reported that
the Spanisrds at that place have de-
cided TO present the Spanish govern
ment with a warship of the same size
as the Vizcaya.
Spanish troops TO the number of !. 400

SENATORIAL MAINE INQUIRY
Immediate Action Postponed After a
Skirmish.

Washington, March 15.-The senate
committee on naval affairs had under
consideration today the resolution in
structing it to make an investigation of
the Maine disaster and decided by
vote of 6 to to postpone action for the
present. This action was preceded by a
sharp exchange of words between the
advocates of immediate action and
those who think the active investiga-
ton should be deferred in order to per-
NIT the administration full opportuni-
ty to press its own investigation
through the naval board of inquiry.
After the decision was reached not to
go on with the inquiry to the extent of
summoning witnesses. it was suggested
that steps should be taken by the COM
mittee to secure from the navy depart
ment all the information in its posses
sion, and the suggestion was adopted.
1t is said that the postponement was
secured by Senator McEnery joining
with the Republicans, and that Sena-
tor Chandler voted with the opposition
for immediate investigation.

LIGHT CRAFT FORMIDABLE.
Plan to Attach Torpedo Outfits to
Small Vessels.

Washington, March 15.-Lieutcnant
Very, the representative of the Howell
Torpedo company. has submitted to the
war department proposition to sup
plement the defences of the larger coast
ports, such as New York and Boston.
by equipping a number Of light draft
and steam launches with torpedo out
fits. He urges that by the full use OF
this means of defense, the harbors may
be kept open for commerce up TO the
last moment, which would not be the
case were reliance placed on the ordi-
nary fixed mine and torpedo. Those
tcrpedoes have range of about two
miles and start off at a speed of 30
knots. If the boats from which they
are discharged are properly sheltered.
as proposed by Lieutenant Very it is
believed they would be valuable ad-
juncts 20 the steamers defense. The
government, however, has heretOfor re-
garded automobile torpedoes as pro-
