MEN FOR DEWEY'S FLEET
FOUR HUNDRED RECRUITS TO BE
SENT TO THE ADMIRAL.
Gen. Miller to Have Command of the
Next Military ExpcditiOn-Appeal
for Protection Of Priests.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-The Navy De-
partment has ordered four hundred sailors
to be sent to Admiral Deweys squadron at
Manila. The men will be sent from San
Francisco on a merchant steamer. 1t is the
purpose of the department to gather most
of the men from the Pacific coast, but or
ders have been given to Lieutenant Com
mander VAIL in charge of the permanent
naval recruiting station in Chicago, to re-
cruit 10 of the sailors there. This detail
does not amount to a reinforcement of the
forces at Manila, for the men are to take the
place of sailors whose terms of service have
expired.
General Miller now in command at San
Francisco, will command the achievements
ordered to Manila Batteries A and d of
the California artillery will go with the ex-
petition General Miller has made applica-
ton to have the troops which accompany
him armed with the Krag-Jorgensen rifles.
The department will stand the order re-
Gently issued respecting arms, and the COM
handing general at Manila will decide what
regiments If any, shall be armed with the
Krag-Jorgensens. General Merriam, who
reached San Francisco yesterday from
Honolulu, has telegraphed the War Depart
ment OF his arrival and says he will send

of three paymasters, it was thought they
were not needed in the Philippines longer.
The order was revoked to-day upon the re-
ceipt of a telegram from General Otis say
ing that the men could not be spared. He
said that four of the paymasters in Manila
were employed in duties outside of the regu-
lar duties of paying troops. Major Whippe,
chief paymaster, was auditor of the cor
poration or Manila, Major Kelliher was
provost marshal and in charge of finances,
Major Lord was in charge of the customs
plOyed in another financial capacity. This
made it impossible to send these three pay
masters home as first determined.

HIGHER WAGES ASKED.
New Scale Presented by Employees of
Railways Entering Pittsburg.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Sept. 21.-The Post to-
day will say that for some time past rumors
of a big railroad strike have been circulated,
but nothing definite could be learned until
yesterday when it developed that the con-
ductors and brakemen of the roads entering
Pittsburg want to lie placed on an equality
with their brethren in other parts of the
country. To accomplish this object these
two branches of the Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen yesterday presented to the off,
Gals of all railroads entering this city a
scale of wages. An answer is requested
within thirty days. The demand calls for o
ten-hour day, with extra for every hour put
in beyond that. The rate of wages asked
is as follows: Day conductors, $2.75; day
brakemen, $780, night yard conductors, 80;
night yard brakemen, $40. Extra per hour:
Day conductors. 2712 cents; day brakemen,
% cents night conductors. 20 cents; night
brakemen, u cents. The present wages are
based on q twelve-hour day. 1t is claimed
by the men that the rate asked by them is
paid in Chicago, Cleveland, Youngstown and
many other Western cities. The district for
which the advance is asked extends east as
far AS Altoona and west to Ashtabula. Nine
ty-nine per cent. of the conductors and
brakemen in this district are members of
the brotherhood and they expect the COM
panies to grant their demand without a
strike being necessary.

FIVE MEN INJURED.
Fall of n Travelling Crane at the Ne
willie Island Dam.

PITTSBURG, Pa, Sept. 21.-Five men
were injured at the new government dam
at Neville island, Coraopolis, Pa, by
the breaking of a large travelling crane.
Two of the men in a critical condition
and may die. Their names are:
NJ. EVANS Montauk Junction
NOAH STANLEY, Evansville, Ind.
MARTIN BECK, Welsburg w. Va.
JOHN YOUNG, Evansville, Ind.
WILLIAM WHITE, Pittsburg.
Evans and Stanley are injured internally
and are not expected to recover. The acct
dent was caused by the breaking of a steel
guy line of the crane, which precipitated a
large derrick, sixty feet above the crane.
to the ground. In its descent the derrick
tore away the supports of the crane, which
crushed down upon the workmen. A huge
block of stone which was being raised when
the guy line broke, fell a distance of forty
five feet among "A group of workmen, but
fortunately the men ran for their lives and
all but five escaped injury

COSTLIEST EVER MADE.
The Paige Typesetting Machine Pre-
scented to Cornell as "A Curiosity.

ITHACA N. Y, Sept. Pop. T. Dodge,
well-known patent attorney OF New York
city and of Washington, has presented to
Cornell University, through DIR. Thurston
of Sbley College, what is said to be the
costliest piece of machinery ever con-
structed. 1t is the original Paige typesetting
machine. the only one of its kind ever built,
and was constructed at an expense of near
~ S2.O00O0O. Besides being the costliest piece
of machinery in the world. it is at the same
time one of the most remarkable and in
genious. 1t consists of over 1900 parts, and
is in every detail beautifully perfect in it's
working. 1t is not built on the plan of the
ordinary typesetting machine, which molds
its own type, but like a human being
handles ordinary type, sets 1t, leads 1t. and
distributes il as though il were person.
The invention was Il failure in a CONNER
cial sense, for even after the first machine
was perfected ii was impossible to build the
machine so that it could be sold The ma
chine occupies floor space 1liax31h feet, and
has a maximum height of six and a half
feet. The new gift to Cornell is all the more
interesting inasmuch as il was in the con-
struction of this machine that Mark Twain
sunk some of his fortune. 1t is not known
yet when the machine will reach Ithaca,
but DR.. Thurston expects il in short time.
AS soon as il arrives Ii will be placed in
the Sibley Museum

EXTORTION AT ST. THOMAS.
Merchants Trying to Get Rich on the
United States.

WASHINGTON, Sept. H.-The Navy De-
partment has not seen the end of the COM
plications resulting from the refusal of the
equipment bureau to accept at extortionate
prices heavy consignment of coal pur-
chased at st. Thomas during the war. IT
was said that United States Consul Van
Horne had pledged the government to take
this coal from local merchant. and as his
draft had been allowed to go to protest the
naval pay officers on United States ships in
the West Indies are feeling the effects in
the refusal by native merchants to accept
their drafts, causing them much embarrass-
ment. 1t is reported to the department that
at St: Thomas the merchants seem leagued
war ships and the department is about to
meet this conduct by keeping our ships
strictly away from the inhospitable port.

lie Clergy in the PhiIinninea

lie Clergy in the Philippines.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21.-Monsignor
Martineln, the apostolic delegate in Wash
ingto1, yesterday received cablegram from
Cardinal Rampolla, secretary of the Vati-
can, informing him that the Bishop of New
Segovia, Philippine islands, and several
Catholic priests had been arrested by the
insurgents and were imprisoned and being
brutally treated by their captors. Cardinal
Rampolla directed Monsignor Martinelli to
lay the case before the War Department
with a request that some action. if possible,
be taken to protect the prisoners from harm.
Monsignor Martinelli presented the facts,
as communicated to him, to acting Secre-
tary of War Meikeljohn and urged that the
department communicate with General Otis,
in command of the American forces at
Manila, with a view to affording relief to
the captured priests
In compliance with the request Secretary
Meikejohn directed that General Otis be in
formed of the situation of the priests and
asked to protect them from bad treatment,
if they were within his jurisdiction.
cablegram to General Otis: 1.-THE secretary
of the Vatican advises that the bishop and
priests of New Segovia have been captured
by insurgents and are brutally treated. If

In response to this order General Otis
cabled the department to-day as follows:
Believe reports of extent of brutality to
Spanish priests exaggerated. viii send Off
Ger to investigate, which will require several
days. New Segovia bishopric one hundred
miles distant"
The information contained in General
OtiS's dispatch was communicated to Mon
signor Martinelli. "A further report upon the
matter is expected by the department from
General Otis.

HAWAIIANS NOT HAPPY
ONE FACTION OF NATIVES SEEKING
RESTORATION OF THE QUEEN,
while Another Is Asking Extra Privi-
Ieges from the American Conn
missiOn-WiIcOx's Prediction.

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, Sept. H.-The
steamship Alameda arrived to-day from
Australian points via Honolulu Advices
from the latter place under date of Sept. H.
say that the congressional commission is
finishing its work and expects to leave for
Washington Sept. g. The commissioners
are now being deluged with petitions and
memorials from the native Hawaiians. The
sentiment of the natives appears to be di-
vided. One faction desires the restoration
of the queen, while the other accepts the
new order of affairs and asks for certain
rights under the new form of government
The natives who favor restoration held a
mass meeting on Sept. II and adopted me-
mortal which was presented to the COM
missioners. The memorial alleges that the
annexation treaty has failed and the joint
resolution is ineffective because it was not
passed by the people of the Hawaiian
islands or the representative of the Legisla-
ture. The memorial concludes by asking
that the constitutional government of JAM
is, 1896. be restored under the protection of
the United States of America. Among the
speakers at the mass meeting was Robert
w. Wilcox, the revolutionist, who few
weeks ago took the oath OF allegiance in
order to qualify himself for@a full pardon
Loi past AHlSueeuS. EOlntlnS 10 the Onlteu
states flag over the government building, he
said: 1T is useless to say that the flag
over there will not come down again. Ii
was UP before and it came down. 1t will
be shown that the annexation vote was car
ried through by handful of foreigners. If
America loves us, why were not Hawaiians
placed on the commission? We are not
repI esented there. The next thing We shall!
not be able to vote
The other faction of Hawaiians has also
presented a memorial to the commission
This memorial asks for a territorial form of
government with full rights for the ma
tiN es and permission to make appointments
for eX-QGeen Liliuokalani, Princess kaiu-
lani and Queen Dowager Kapioiani.
