before, the fine was 81 for each day they
are absent over the time allowed in the
furlough.
There is the same uncertainty felt IN
the ranks of the batteries over the possi-
bility of staying. that has been there ever
since the war closed. They all know that
an effort is being made to have them re-
tanned in the service, and they have ike
wise all heard of the report that batteries
Il, c and d have been chosen as the ones
to be mustered out. To tell the truth. the
hopes about the matter are about equally
divided. If there is any difference IN the
numbers wishing one way or another. i
is perhaps on the side of those who WISH
to be retained.
The Journal man found one of the men
who does not wish to stay, Tuesday. ana
he stated the case about as hessaw It. Ht
said he was willing and eager to stay IN
the service as long as he thought ne was
of any use, hut now that the war is over

cRoP Returns.
Grain Supply Still Remaining in the
Farmers Hands.

Washington, March 10-The CONSOLE
dated returns of the different crop re-
porting agencies of the department of
agriculture made up to March 1st, show
the wheat reserve in farmers hands on
that date to have been the equivalent Of
229 per cent of last years crop, or
about 21.OOO0O0 bushels. This is 49,,
900 bushels in excess of the farm re-
serve reported one year ago, but the re-
suit of the special wheat investigation
made by the department last fall, would
indicate that the crop of 1896 was larger
than the department had reason to be-
lieve at the time.
The proportion of the crop of 1897
shipped beyond the county where grown,
is 50.7 per cent.
The corn in farmers hands, as esti-
mated, aggregates 7S3,000,0O0 bushels, or
Ill per cent of last years crop, as
against 1,16400 900 bushels, or 510 per
cent on hand on March /, 1897, and l.
or, 900, 600 bushels, or 49.S per cent, on
March 1, 1896. The proportion of the
total crop shipped out of the county
where grown, is estimated at 21.6 per
cent. or about 412, 900 900 bushels The
proportion of the total crop merchanta-
BILE is estimated at 1858 per. cent.
OF oats there is reported to be about
272,000,00O bushels, or 3S.9 per cent, still
in farmers hands, as compared with
313,000,000 bushels, or 44.2 per cent, on
March /, 1897 The proportion Of this
crop shipped beyond county lines, is es-
timated at 292 per cert.

Lewis Nixon Speaks on High Explosives

New York. March 10,-Lewis Nixon,
when his attention was directed today
to the statement IN this mornings papers
that the powder mills OF the country
could only make about a half ton OF
smokeless powder per day. said: 81 do
not believe this statement, for the IA
cilities Of the powder mills of the coun-
try must be far in excess OF the amount

ing an unusually high velocity with
very moderate pressure, and temper
ature which will not cause the rapid
erosion which now limits the life of a
large gun to a few rounds.
This factory was built to meet the
demands of an undertaking having
nothing to do with the present crisis,
but it now becomes available in the
general scheme of national defense.
Numerous new machines have been
built, and a number have been import
ed from Krupp Of Germany, so that
powder making is available, and actual

ENGLAND'S FLEET.
Mr.. Goschen Says the Naval Esti.
mate is Inadequate.
sum involved is Over twenty-five Million
Pounds-JubiIee Display Not Up
to Ideal Standard.

London, March 10.-In the house of
commons today, the first lord Of the ad-
miralty, the Hon. George ]. Goschen, in
presenting the naval estimates, pointed
out that with the outlay on naval works,
the expenditures amounted to the colos-
sal sum of f25,55O,OOO, which, he ex-
planned, was even considered inadequate
in some quarters.
Mr. Goschen said that the navy was
in a transitional state, to which many
of the admitted deficiencies were due.
Moreover, he added, the government
was introducing a series of improve
ments. The jubilee displays had been
great, but they had not reached the
ideal standard.
Referring to the channel squadron,
Mr.. Goschen said it was the most pow
erful ever gathered together, it's duties
being not only to parade the channel,
but also to engage in offensive opera
tions in time of war
M.r. Goschep denied that the navy was
under-manned, declaring that every
vessel which took part in the jubilee re-
view was as fully manned as it would
be in wartime He admitted there was
a paucity of officers, but he explained
that that could be easily remedied.
Touching on the building program,
Mr.. Goschen said he would defer fur
nishing particulars regarding the pro-
posed warships, in order to keep for
eigners in the dark concerning their
plans, but he could say that the battle
ships and cruisers would be adapted to
the special circumstances which the past
year had revealed in various parts Of
the world.
Mr. Goschen then deplored the recent
-, rrIa I'D cd fDY1
an Increase of pay for British seamen
of the merchant marine. He concluded:
"If peace shall again reign in our
centres of industry and maritime in
stincts, and If the nation that calls her
self mistress of the sea reasserts herself
by an increase of merchant seamen,
then the nation may look forward in
confidence that if there be peace, it will
be peace with honor; but if war, which
God forbid! it must be war crowned
with victory"
WALES CORDIAL WORDS.
Cannes, March 1O-The Prince of
Wales today laid the foundation stone
of the new pier in the presence of the
Grand Duke Michael of Russia, the
Duke of Cambridge, and the leading au-
thorities, in addition to a brilliant gath
ering of the general public. Replying to
the warm greetings of the prefect and
the mayor of Cannes, the Prince OF
Wales said: II am touched by the sem
timents which you have expressed in
the name of the government of the re-
public. / sincerely hope France Will
long enjoy the benefits of the govern
ment you represent, and that the cor
dial relations between France and
Great Britain will continue for the good
Of humanity"

Converse Calls Upon Capt. Gen. Banco-
Court of Inquiry.
Havana, March 10.-Capt. Converse of
the United States cruiser Montgomery,
in company with Consul General Lee
called on Capt Gen. Blanco today
In letter to the United States consul
general, DR.. Congosto, the secretary
general of Cuba, assures Gen. Lee that
there will be no delay in the future in
the passage of relief supplies through
the custom house. Because of the dis
covery Of jewelry in such supplies, the
authorities held up many consignments,
and some perishable provisions were
spoiled
Louis Klopsch, proprietor of the Chris
tian Of Herald of New York and one of
the three commissioners appointed by
President Mckinley to supervise the col
lection of fund for the relief of the
reconcentrados, who arrived here yes
terday, believes the jewelry was sent
from interior parts of the United States
as presents, and the quality and quanti-
ty discovered seems to prove this as
sumption to be correct.
The United States naval court of in
quiry into the loss of the battleship
Maine is quietly continuing its work,
and it's members are as secretive as
usual. So far as can be judged, there
have been no important developments
recently.
