HOW THE NAVY WAS COALED.
Report of Capt. Bradford, Chief of the
bureau of Enuipment.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-An account OF
how the navy was equipped to meet the
emergency created by the war is contained
in the annual report of Captain r. B. Brad
ford, chief of the Bureau Of Equipment,
Navy Department. He tells of the difficulty
in getting private firms to carry coal for
the blockade fleet on account of war risks.
Whatever the cost, says Captain Bradford,
the government could least of all afford de-
lay, so five Golfers were purchased ranging
in price from $4,000 for the Sterling to
$4,000 for the Merrimac. The first great
emergency having passed, and the squadron
being relieved, additional golfers, mostly
foreign vessels, were purchased at fair
prices, and eventually the bureau possessed
an efficient armed collier fleet, with a car
rying capacity Of $1,000 tons for use in the
Atlantic. Without these vessels it would
have been impossible to carry on the opera
tions brought to successful issue by the
fleet. The monitors were especially helpless
with their small steaming radius without
by the Merrimac is historic.
One lesson of the war. which will be OF
use to every navy in the world, the report
continues. was a demonstration that in
future fresh water for boilers must be
abundantiy supplied to the Meet by trans
ports just as coal is carried. With the ex-
ception of the Oregon. the distlling plants
aboard our war ships which were supposed
to be sufficient to supply the loss in eVapOra-
ton to the boilers proved to be inadequate,
owing chiefly to leaky steam pipes. 1t was
more difficult to supply fresh water to ships
at Key West than TO supply coal. The boil
ers of the ships on blockade before Santiago
were much injured for the want of fresh
water, and gave the commander-in-chief
much concern. The bureau has heretofore
bought fresh water for steaming purposes,
but that was too expensive. During the
war the bureau paid at one time $2,OS7.50 for
400 900 gallons of fresh water at Tompkns-
Vile n. Y, for the st. Paul, and pro rata
for other ships. Had this water been drawn
from the Brooklyn mains and transported
to the ship in water boats it would have
cost only $4325. To remedy this evil the
bureau Is procuring a water barge for each
naval station, and is erecting distlling plants
where necessary. 1t has also procured a
tank ship, the Armatthusa, to carry water
in bulk
The Equipment Bureau bought nearly half
a million tons of coal during the year at the
rate of $4.6S per ton. The year before only
13S 3lS tons were bought at a cost of S4.75
per ton. The coal bought abroad. 4,11l
tons, cost $8.12 per ton.
Captain Bradford regards with much con-
Germ the constantly increasing demands for
repairs and renewals for electrical outfits
and supplies of ships. With the notable ex-
ceptions Of Dewey's fleet and the Oregon
the experience OF our war ships would seem
to indicate that they cannot long be self
sustaining without dOckyard electrical work.

A STORY WITHOUT FOUNDATION.
The following is from the Michigan Cit


The following is from the Michigan City
Dispatch:
1t is evident that plans are making to
bring great pressure on the Governor and
the General Assembly. The spoilsmen
would like to see every penal, benevolent
and reformatory institution in the State
placed under partisan control, and thereby
have places opened for several hundred
torial plum is to be held out to the Gov
Aernor as the temptation. 1t Is understood,
however, that the Governor Will stand frm
against permitting the state institutions to
be turned over to the spoilsmen.
The same thing is mentioned in one or
two other Democratic papers as evidence of
Republican greed" accompanied with the
expression of patriotic and disinterested
hope that the Governor will be able to
withstand his party. The Logansport
Pharos adds to the apparent realism of the
story by stating that 1.-The Republican
workers now insist that the State is re-
liably Republican, and that they should
have everything in sight" If there is any
such movement or sentiment among Re-
publicans the Journal does not know of it,
and it is as likely to know what is going on
in Republican circles as is a Democratic
paper The story probably had its origin in
some chance remark which was magnified
into a movement and utilized by Demo-
cratic papers in the hope of causing dissen-
sion among Republicans and perhaps bring
ing the party under popular suspicion. 1t
will be time enough to charge that such a
movement is on foot when some Republican
of approved political standing shall sug-
gest it. or some Republican newspaper
mention it with approval. 1t is possible
that among the 100000 Republican voters in
Indiana there may be few so short-sight-
ed and unwise and so mistaken in their
ideas OF what constitutes good politics as
to desire a return to the spoils system in
the management of the state institutions.
but they must be very few, and more in
significant in innuence than they are in
numbers. The Journal ventures the asser-
ton that no Republican of any party
standing will approve the suggestion, and
no Republican member of the Legislature
will be likely to commit political suicide by
favoring 1t. One Of the best fights the Re-
publican party in Indiana has made, and

that under the Constitution of the United

lonial system Of European nations cannot be
established under our present Constitution,

territory into States suitable Tor ADMISSION

The present session of Congress could not
do better thing in the way of monetary
legislation than to pass the bill introduced
by Representative Cousins, of Iowa. 1t is
entitled "A bill declaring a standard of
value in the United States" and provides
that "the standard of value in the United
states is hereby declared to be and is the
standard gold dollar of twenty-five and
eight-tenths grains of standar I'd gold, nine
hundredths fine" That is a short bill, but
at would mean a great deal to the business
world OF course, we have the gold stand
ard already. and have had for a long time,
but the free-silver yawpers have succeeded
1n raising so much doubt and distrust that
q declaratory law on the subject would have
q very beneficial effect The Republican
party must keep faith with the people on
this subject. and 1t cannot give assurance
too soon Of its purpose to do so. OF course
the bill referred to could not possibly pass
the present Senate. but it's passage by the
House would place the Republican party
right on the record and the next Congress
could take it up and pass it again. Unless
the Republican party does something soon
in the way of redeeming its pledges on the
money question it may expect to be pun
ished in 1900
