Washington, Jan. 10, 1898.


Secretary Long. accompanied by
Chief Constructor Hichborn, Chief
O'Neill, OF the Bureau of Ordnance, and
Judge Advocate General Lemley an
peared before the Senate Committee on
Naval Affairs to-day. The Secretary
said in response to questions that the
Navy Department had prepared full
plans and specifications calling for an
armor plant under the last Naval Ap.
preparation bill, and that estlmates, on
the cost of land. tools and machinery
necessary TO equip the plant had been
made. The bids were to be opened on
the goth instant and he thought several
bids would be made
Secretary Long said also tha: in view
of the report of the committee which he
had appointed 10 consider the question
Of government armor plant. upon the
great cost and delay II would involve
that he had entered into further nego-
tintfons with private armor plants now
furnishing armor for other ships. and
he heiieved that he could make q con-
tract for the supply of armor plate for
the Illinois. Alabama and Wisconsin.
new under course OF construction. which
would be ready whenever the ships
were ready to receive IL at the rate OF
$500 per ton. The Secretary recom>
mended In view of the circumstances
that an arrangement to this effect be
made.
From the Secretary's statement. cor
roborated by statements by Commo-
dore Hichborn and Captain O'Ncill, II
appears that the cost OF n Government
plant prcperly equipped would be from
S",ooo'ooo to S4'5oo,OOo. He said thar this
estimate included all machinery for
making armor plate, guns and proiec.
tiles. and added that If the Government
adopted the policy OF providing It's own
plant no armor could BE- expected from
SUCH plant for about three years.
The committee has taken no action
upon the armor plnte matter, and II is
considered probable that the whole
question will receive attention in that
connection.

Grcnt Anxiety.

London, Jan. 19.-The Pail Mall
Gazette this afternoon makes the fol-
lowing announcement in big type:
With deep regre. we learn on most
excellent authority that Mr.. Gl,dstoncs
health causes the gravcst anxiety TO
those about him. His sojourn al
cannes has not had the effect of for.i-
lying his strength as anticipated"
The news placards of the Gazette
read: Critical condition of Mr.. Glad
stone"
The Westminster Gazette, although
minimizing the alarming reports con-
cerning the health of Mr.. Gladstone. Is
constrained to admit the fact that Mr..
Gladstone has suffered great pain most
OF the time he has been ut Cannes
being unable to leave his sofa"
Continuing, the Westminster Gazette
remarks: so far as the vital organs
are concerned. however. he Is no worse
On the other hand, continuous pain in
man of Mr.. GlnQstone's age is un-
doubtedly symptom to cause anxiety"
An official medical statement issued
tonight re-asserts that there Is no
cause for alarm, as to Mr.. GladStone'S
health. although 1t is not benefited as
much as had been hoped ut Cannes. The
facial neuralGic pains persist with daily
fluctuations owing to the cold winds
and wet weather; but the complaint Is
quite local. His physical powers have
not suffered his strength is good, his
appetite excellent. he joins the family
at meals and takes regular drives,
weather permitting.
1t Is not true that the family has been
summoned. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Glad
stone will so to Cannes on Saturday In
accordance with an arrangement made
weeks ago. Lord Stuart Rendel (wth
whom Mr. Gladstone Is vIsiting), telc-
graphed tonight at $40 that Mr.. Glad
stones health was unchanged

MORGAN 'rAs.lxS on.
flo Declares Tint Cleveland Wns Fn-
rOrnble TO Annexation of Hawaii

Washington. d. c., Jan. 19-Scnato tor
Morgan continued his speech In ad-
vocacy of the ratification OF the Ha-
wai!an annexation treaty in the eXecu-
tive session of the Senate to-day. He
announced at the conclusion OF To-
days session that he probably would
require one more day In which to
complete his presentation of the sub
icct.
Senator Morgan dealt to-day with
the question of the agricultural and
commercial possibilities of the islands
with the character Of the present Gov
ernmcnt and with the position of the
residents Of the island on the sub
1ect of annexation. He repeated his
assertion that President Cleveland was
favorable to the acquisition of the is
lands. and again expressed the opin-
lon that it was his intention to have
restored Queen Liluokalani and to
have negotiated with her II treaty Of
annexation. He elaborated his views
on this subject at considerable length
saying that while he believed 1t was
Mr.. Clcvelands intention to have an
neNed the islands, he naturally
changed his intention to do this
through the restoration Of the Queen
when she made known her bloodthirsty
disposition toward those who had de-
throned her. He expressed the opinion
that Mr. Cleveland would never have
taken such positive position as he did
take against the Dole government and
in opposition for annexation but for
the antagonistic and misleading re-
port Of Commissioner Blount.

A Michigan Philosopher

'I saw a rather funny thing this morn
ing, coming in on the train" said down
town merchant. "There was a man just
ahead of me in the smoker, with his head
out of the window, smoking pipe.
"Suddenly, without warning, the bowl
parted from the stem and fell to the ground.
Without moments hesitation he threw
the stem after it, and then followed it with
his tobacco pouch. Then he settled back
into his seat and smiled to himself.

We were discussing the national Ill, and
all agreed that it was not catarrh as doc
tors used to say, but headache. There are
about twenty kinds of headache. and 1t re-
qures a pretty clever doctor to determine
their cause. Sick headaches are constitu-
tional, and last from three days to a fort
night. The neuralgia headache comes from
a disordered stomach, and can be cured In
five minutes by an emetic or a strong pur-
gative Headaches from exhaustion, over
work, eye-strain, anenia, Brights disease,
over-eating, drunkenness, mental strain,
Impurities in the lungs, obstruction Of the

htat the jokes now being used on the stage
were exhumed from the ruins Of Pompei,
Mycena, Tyrens and other towns that you
don't hear much about nowadays. But the
supply has been running low Of late, they
tell me, and some means of replenishing it
must soon be found. Possibly the trust will
see fit to send party to continue the exca-
vations at these places, in the hope of dig
oing up nice lot of jokes that will do for
the stage first st-rate, with little mixing up,
rubbing the rust off, and patching in places,
perhaps.
As intimated before, the trust will sound
the death knell of competition in the joke
trade. There will be no such thing, after
il gets to running, as, for instance, myself
going to an editor with nice bright, new
and original joke on the Philippine islands
with something about Uncle Sam and John
ny Bull eating philopena in it, and when
offer the joke to him for so cents, have him
tell me that Otheman Stevens or George
Burton or Major Ben Truman have been
hanging around the Office for week trying
to sell him the same joke for 10 cents.
That's the sort of competition that is tax

to the demands of the trade, and prices VIII

THE RETURNING

They march behind the tattered nag,
Our very hearts 1t charms,
But spent and slow their footsteps lag,
The weary men-at-arms.
With gallant haste they stormed the hilh
And dared the deadly fray;
They had no lack of nerve or Will
In battles fearful day.
Though bullets swept their thinning ranks
They did not pale with dread.
Today they smile and utter thanks
Above that roll of dead.
A subtler foe q wilier craft,
Has moved them since the fight;
A bitter cup their lips have quaffed-
Fever and cold, and fright,
And famine, CHASTITY enemies,
Have had them for their prey.
Well may they lag behind the flag.
Our men-at-arms this day.
And home returned, the brilliant skies
Grew dark to us who see,
Through tears that blur our plying eyes.
How cruel war can be.
