SLIM CHANCE FOR M'GREW,
INJURED BY EFFORTS OF BIS
FRIENDS.
Allison Will Speak Tomorrow and
the Case Will Be Disposed Of
New Postoffice Established.
fspecial to The Herald

Washington, Feb. 19.-The McGrew
case will be disposed of by the senate
committee on Monday. Senator ALI
son will be heard by the committee,
but there as no chance that his re-
marks will influence the result. Sena-
tor Thurston's remarks before the COM
mittee only accumulated the impression
that McGrew was a nonresident, and
it is fair to presume that Allison's
speech will have the same effect. An
unfavorable report on Monday will
probably insure rejection of the nomi-
nation by the senate.

Chicago, Feb. 19.-Since Friday morn
ing Fort Sheridan, where the Fourth
infantry and the First cavalry are sta
toned, has been in a state of the utmost
activity. Soldiers have been polishing
their weapons, arranging mess kits,
grooming horses and preparing gener-
ally to march at a moments notice.
Colonel Robert F. Hall, in command
of the fort, yesterday received one tele-
gram among the many messages deliv-
cred to him daily, which caused him
to take action. He at once ordered
that general preparations for a pos
sible immediate summons be made.
Accordingly, every man at the forts
was set to work. Every man of the
eco soldiers at the fort busted himself
arranging his army belongings. Every
man has been supplied with ammuni-
tiCn sufficient for 100 rounds of shots.
This is in both the cavalry and in
fantry.
Orders were issued to the soldiers to
turn defective weapons into the ord
nance department, and new ones have
been supplied Today final prepara-
items in compliance with the orders
were completed, and those stationed at
the forts were in readiness to receive
orders OF any character.

Junction City, Kan, Feb. 19-The

readiness to move on short notice.

CONCURRENT MAINE INQUIRY.
Harmonious Plan to Ascertain Cause
of the Explosion.

Washington, Feb 19.-The interesting
feature Of the days news at the navy
department was the decision of the
government to allow concurrent inves-
legations of the cause Of the Maine dis
aster. for its own part making an in
dependent inquiry through the naval
court OF inquiry already appointed.
while permitting the Spanish authori-
ties to make such investigation as they
desire. This arrangement commended
itself to naval men alike as fair TO all,
and at the same time as calculated to
develop the exact facts in a manner
that could be questioned.
Secretary Long and Assistant Secre-
tary Day, OF the state department, had
an interview with the president this
morning, lasting nearly an hour. AIr.
Day read a cablegram from Consul
General Lee at Havana, transmitting
& request from the Spanish authorities
in Cuba that the Spanish officials be
permitted to Join with our people in
making an investigation into the cause
OF the disaster 10 the Maine. The mat
ter was discussed at consid srable length
ana the conclusion was reached (and
General Lee viii be so nOtitied). that
while this government is willing to af-
ford the Spanish authorities all rea-
sonahle facilities for conducting an in
vestiGation. YET it is thought best the
first inquiry shall be made by our own
CmmissioEers.
SPANISH REQUEST.
The request of the Spanish govern
ment for permission to examine the
wreck of the Maine reached the state
department last night through the fol-
lowing message from Consul General
Zee:

VIGILANCE AT SAN FRANCISCO
Every Gun In the Harbor Undergo
ing Inspection.


San Francisco, Feb. 19-The Call
says: It is definitely known that the
department at Washington has wired
General Shafter to use the utmost vigi-
lance in guarding the guns of this har-
Dor. The telegram from Washington
to General Shafter is elaborate and
gives instructions in detail regarding
the desired preparations.
Every gun is being infinitely inspect
ed. The stock of ammunition FOR the
y and 10-inch rifles and the mortars
is not very large but is sufficient for
any immediate requirement in the
event of hcstilities between the United
States and Spain. The reserve supply
for the batteries of this harbor is
stored in Benicia arsenal.
Washington, Feb. 19.-The officials of
the war department are annoyed at the
circulation of rumors that seem to con-
meet an activity now observable at the
sea coast defenses with the Maine in
cident. The attention of Acting Secre-
tary Meikeljohn was this morning call
ed to several stories coming from wide
" separated parts of the country. He
promptly declared that this movement
had no connection with the Maine af-
fair. There had been increase of the
garrisOns of the seaboard posts. But
this had been goiEg on for six months
and only marked a step in the develop
ment of the scheme of coast defense
planned by the fertilization board some
time ago.

An inventive genius who suffered
from attacks by stray dogs when riding
his wheel, set his wits to work to devise
something which would be an efica-
cious, and yet comparatively harmless,
means of defense. AS a result he has
brought out and patented pocket
pistol which will shoot ammonia,
water or other liquid. The most vic
ious dog cannot Withstand few drops
of ammonia in his mouth OF eyes, and
yet there is no danger of actually in
iuring valuable animal which might
playfully annoy rider. The weapon
has proved so much of success as a
means of defense as we'll as fun-mak-
ing, that the lucky inventor isrealizing
much money from his device.

A MunlelpaIltr,s Restaurant.

The city OF Grenoble, France, has
been running a restaurant and kitchen
for fifty years. Meals are supplied at
cost in the restaurant, or delivered at
residences, as may be desired. The
food is Of the best quality, the cooks
are as skllful as any in Paris, and the
service is excellent. The dining-rooms
are Of several grades, according to the
attendance, 80 that all classes and
tastes may be suited. One may dine
there for three cents on bread and
soup, and have his hunger thoroughly
appeased, or one can pay twelve cents
and enjey a full course dinner. The
best rooms are marble-foored and pref
tily decorated. There is no financial
profit whatever to the city Of Grenoble
in operating this huge restaurant,
which serves from $1,000 to 10000
meals a day. The charges are based
on the cost OF the materials used, help,
and keeping utensils and buildings in
repair.-American Kitchen Magazine.

Second Days Fight.

Saturday was a day Of almost un-
paralleled suspense and anxiety az
Washington. From the president
down through all officials everybody
sundera tremendous strain. Tidiugs
from Shafter was eagerly awaited aud
momeniarily expected, but save q brief
report upon the loss of Friday nothing
came from him during the day con-
corning the progress of the action on
Santiago.
Just at the close Of the day the first
IL Of information coming directly to
the officials reached the president aud
Secretary Alger II was a private dis
patch, not intended for them, although
II came through official channels.
Briefly and expressiyely il told the
story OF a day Of terrific fighting, It
was direct from the field Of action and
was as late as p. IN.
1t stated that the engagement bad
been in progress throughout Saturday;
that the dead and wounded were being
carried 10 the rear, and that the Amer
lean losses were heavy. The exact
wording OF the dispatch was not made
known, but one Of the high officials
said that it conveyed TO him the idea
Of extreme tension aud Of a battle in
which all the fercest elements OF war
fare prevailed.
The day was hot and bloody, re-
markable for the great number Of Off
GERS killed at the head Of their COM
mands, and for the determined, forward
word Of General Skaters men. Every
obstacle to the storming of Santiago
was swept away during the day,
The conduct of our troops was glori-

Our loss in the two days is estimated
at about 800, while the Spanish loss
