WlNSLOWS CLOSE CALL
THE LITTLE TORPEDO BOAT HAD HEAVY
WEATHER.
Apprehension Was Felt, But the Craft Rode
Out the Gale and Proved Herself
Staunch.

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 31.-Ihe lit
tie torpedo boat Winslow had a hard
time of it in the heavy weather that
prevailed off the Atlantic Coast last
week, according to the official report
of the commander, Lieutenant John d..
Bernadou, received at the Navy Depart
ment today. THE Winslow proved her
self to be an excellent sea boat" says
Lieutenant BeTnadou, fully capable
of riding out heavy gale. | felt con-
siderable apprehension as to whether the
machinery would hold out or the hull
suffer from the violent motion to which
we We're subjected. In both these re-
spects the vessel proved staunch. IN
view of the limited supply of coal and
provisions carried, the position of a tor
pedO boat exposed to heavy weather on
our Atlantic coast in an offshore gale
must be regarded as Il perilous one, yet
the Winslow proved sufficiently sea-
worthy to stand the severe test to which
she was subjected"

A BLIZZARD is FEARED
NEW YORK TIED UP BY THE GREAT
SN0W-ST0RM.
Much Suffering and Women and Children Seek
Shelter in the and Lodging House
RospitaISS.

New York, Jan. 31.-Since o'clock
this morning snow has been falling in
this city and vicinity and tonight Il
strong west wind and failing tempera-
ture call forth many predictions of q
blizzard. All day there was fog on
the bay in addition to the binding SNOW
and traffic on the water was seriously
impeded. There was one bad ferry boat
collision and many accidents were mar
irowly averted. The cable and elevated
roads in this city and the trolley lines
in Brooklyn and Jersey City kept snow
plows in constant service, and were not
badly impeded.
The cold weather filled the city lodging
houses to overfowing, and last night
and tonight many women and children
who applied for shelter were sent to the
different hospitals.
The storm started like the blizzard of
March II 1883, that tied up traffic in
t.. city for several days.

AT Mr.. BUTLER'S REQUEST
BUTLER'S ALLEGED HOPE OF
WORKING PRITCHARD IN.
BUTLER WOULD NOT STATE CAUSE
Senator Pritchard and Judge Ewart Had Pleas
ant Interview With President -AsheyiIIe's
New National Bank--The SquabbIe
Over the KinSton PostoHce.

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 31.-(Special)
Al the request of Senator Butler,
Judge Ewart's nomination went over un-
til next Monday.
In reply to the correspondent of the
News and Observer, Senator Butler said
he did not make the request on per-
sOnal grounds or any other grounds, bu,
simply asked the Judiciary committee to
let Judge Ewart's nomination go over,
which they did. When asked to state
his objection to Judge Ewart, Senator
Butler smiled and said he dill not care
to say anything at this time This
would seem to indicate that the Senator
has Il card up his sleeve and that he
will have something to say later ON.
The story going the rounds to-day is
that Senator Butler desires to defeat
Ewart's nomination with the view Of
forcing Pritchard's appointment on the
ground THAT Pritchard is the only Re
publican in North Carolina who can be
confirmed. With Pritchard Out of the
Senate, Butler would be the king bee
in North Carolina, and would then be
in a position to control the patronage
yet to be distributed among the faith
full. Up to date, however, it is said
the Senator has had no hand nor voice
in the appointments made, and the Tar
Heel Populists are getting restless.
There can be no question but chat Sena-
tor Butler could have divided the pat
ronage of the State had he so decided.
Senator Pritchard and Judge Ewart
were at the White House to-day and had
a pleasant interview with the President.
The Blue Ridge National Bank Of
AsheviIe, WITH capital stock OF $780,
600, has been organized with j. w.
Norwood as president.
The Republican party in the House,
under the leadership of Speaker Reel
and Chairman Dingley, paid another
campaign debt to-day when they whipped
the Republicans into lire and made
them vote against the Teller resolu-
ton, with the exception of Congressman
Pearson, who made Il brief speech in
which he said he was for silver, but
would vote against the resolution, ana

CATION voted for the resolution.
The KinstOn postOffice will be set
tied within a few days. Congressman
White said this afternoon that the mat
ter had been submitted to Mrs Hunter
and his candidate, Hargett, (cOl.), for a
compromise. Unless an understanding
was soon reached he would name a third
party, but just who that would be he
was not prepared to say. He has re-
commended j. $. Watson, u Populist,
for the postoffce at Talbot, Wilson
county.

ASSOCIATED PRESS DECISION.


A Permanent Injunction Restraining
and News Organization from Uusing
The Name.
London, Jan. 31.-About one year ago
the United Press, a news organization
which has since discontinued business,
and gone into the hands of an assignee,
placed signs upon cts quarters in Lon
don, using the name THE Associated
Press" in a manner calculated to con-
yey the impression that it was the head
quarters of the Associated Press. One
of the signs was The United AssOciat-
ed Presses" At the same time compa-
nies were Incorporated in England un.
der the title of 1.-THE Associated Press
of America" and the Western Associat-
ed Press" Since the collapse of the
United Press, another concern has re,
tanned the quarters and signs formerly
used by the Associated Press. This
created confusion in the public mind,
and the Associated Press filed a bill
fW an injunction 10 restrain any parties
from using the name of Associated
Press Justice Sterling, on Saturday
last, framed an injunction perpetually
restraining the United Press either
as one or in combination,
from using any name calculated to leaI
) ) she belief that the United Press was
the same as the Associated Press. They
were likewise restrained from in any
manner representing themselves as be-
ing in any way connected -s~ith the As
sociated Press and from promoting any
company in which the words "The As
sociated Press form q distinct part
The court also assessed the costs
against the United Press.
The effect of the decision is that no
one other than '"IIhe Associated Press
can use the name of The Associated
Press in Great Britain or any name
that could be mistaken for it.

Great Britain's withdrawal from Port
Arthur and her ccasing to exert pres
sure for the opening of the port Of Ia
Lien Wan. which actions are regarded
as incredible and suicidal to British
interests and prestige, were owing to her
disbelief in the existence of a secret

Chinese government, however, quotes
this treaty as the reason for Russia's
presence at Port Arthur, and Russian
dispatches to the Tsung- allege
that the occupation Of Port Arthur is in
