DR.. Marston's Experience With New
Bcy-Notes From Capitol Hill.

DIR. Charles n. Marston cannot use his hand
some buggy for some time, and one Of his
horses is badly cut up. The reason Is that the
doctor recently hired on trial colored boy
named Robert Burroughs. and after a few
days trial the doctor is not satisfied with his
experiment. Yesterday the boy made up his
mind to visit his cousin, who is at the reform
school. Robert went to the stable on Bacon
street where the doctor keeps his horse, and,
without the Doctors permission, took the
horse and buggy and started for Howard.
He took a friend with him. The boys did not
dare to ring the front door bell Of the Socka-
nosset school. so they went looking around
the fields for Bob's cousin. They did not
find him, and after bec0ming discouraged
they made up their minds to let the horse
have his dinner, SO they took the bride OF
tnat he might eat. The horse was satisfied
with this part Of the program, but kicked
when the boys took some rough bagging to
rub him down, and he boited, with the re-
suit that the buggy was wrecked. The horse
ran TO the state farm, where DIR. Keene,
who recognized the animal rs remarkably
fine specimen Of North End horsefesh, took
care Of him. The horse was fourd to te
badly cut The police were notified and
Burroughs was locked mp for malicious mis-
chief.

between nations. There were objections to

between nations. There were objections to
this plan and it was tabled: =,
Rev B. w. Il. Tayler of Los Angeles said
that in view of the action relative to the
Car of Russia it was eminently proper that
the house adopt the pending resolution, ex-
sympathy toward the. United States during
the recent war with Spain. 1t was partic-
ularly appropriate on this occasion, he said,
while an eminent English churchman, the
Dean of Hereford, was present.
Mr.. Tayler referred to the satisfaction ex-
pressed by President Mckinley at the course
Of Great Britain during the recent war Pc
Rod.
After some spirited controversy the reso-
luton was then adopted. 1t was as follows:
Resolved, that this General Conference
of the Protestant Episcopal Church OF the
United States places on record its sense
of deep qualification at the many manifesta-
tions Of friendly feeling to our nation which
have been so freely and cordially shown by
the government and empire of Great Brit
ain, in the late war with Spain, and ex-
presses the sincere hope that the time may
| speedily arrive when these two great ma
| tions of the Anglo-Saxon family, the
United States of America and the British
Empire, shall stand together in defense of
the rights and liberties of mankind, and for
the promotion of Christian civilization
among the nations of the earth"
On the invitation of the presiding officer
the dean of Hereford addressed the conven-
tion and expressed his hearty thanks, as
an Englishman, and for his country, for the
cordial resolution just adopted. He re-
joiced at the friendly feeling between the
two great nations. 1t tended to no warlilSe
alliance, he said, but to that natural union
between those of common tongue and the
nation. Instead of making war, the alli-

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Oct. 2o;-The war
Investigation committee concluded lts Ia
bors at Jacksonville to day and shortly, after
10 o'clock left Jacksonville for Atlanta,
expecting to take up business there. 49,,
The commission was here iour Gays, ihis
being the first of the camps visited. 1t mas
been awarded somewhat more time than VII
be given to other points, with the possible
exception of Chickamauga. :,
The commissioners are generally pleased
with the result of their labors here. They
have naturally met with complaints, but
these have been dealt with and they dld not
indicate neglect or mismanagement.
Generally one private or non.commls-
stoned officer from each regiment has been
called and in many cases more than one In
the case of enlisted men they were selected
at random, the commissioners merely ask
ing that men be sent to them without any
signitication OF the purpose for which they
were called. They have without exception
said that they were receiving enough to eat
and wear. There were occasional complaints
OF defects in clothing or request for great
er variety of. food, but in no instance has
spirit of fault finding been developed among
this class of witnesses. In some cases
deficiency of supplies at the beginning OF the
camps history was shown and there has
been more or less tainted meat received by
the men, but it was agreed byt all the wit
nesses that the first condition was due to
the congestion at Tampa and the latter to
the. climate.
General McCook and Colonel Saxton re.
turned today from their investigation of
conditions at Tampa They found that the
beginning of the war was due to the fact
that cars were shipped from all over the
country without being labeled, and without
forwarding bills of lading.

A TORPEDO BOAT TRIAL
WITH RESULT ANYTHING BUT
SATISFACTORY
A Boiler Tube or Steam Pipe Burst,
Killing Three Men-Four Others
Will Die

/ ASTORIA, Ore, Oct. 20.-During the trial
trip of the torpedo boat Davis today an eX-
plosion occurred in one OF her boilers. Men
in the boiler room were scalded, three dying
from their injuries. The Dead are:
CHARLES O'NElLL, fireman.
PAUL LUITHLE, coal passer.
HARRY WOODS, fireman.
The injured are w. Woods, superintendent
of the boiler room; j. Ryan, fireman; A.
johnson, fireman, and A Buehle, fireman.
THE CAUSE NOT KNOWN
The accident occurred in the Columbia
river, about twenty miles above this city,
while the boat was on her trial trip. The
nature of the explosion has not yet been
made known, as an examination OF the boil
ers will be required to determine exactly
what portion of the boilers burst.
One of the men on the Davis said:
1T is impossible to say whether the tubes
in the boiler or steam pipe burst. All we
know is that an explosion occurred. The
boiler room was filed with boiling water and
steam and the men in the room were scalded
to DEATH"
The Davis was towed here by river steam
er and the injured men taken to st. Mary S
hospital.
The Davis carried forty-one men all told.
She was one of the two torpedo boats re-
Gently built by Wolff & Zwicker at Portland
and was soon to have gone into commission.
At the time of the accident the boat was in
charge of the official trial board. The Off
GERS decline to make any statement as to the
cause of the accident. The best theory OBJ
tainable is that some of the tubes in the for
ward boiler exploded, owing to a derange-
ment of the automatic water gauge which
permitted the water to get too low. Except
ing for the havoc naturally wrought in the
fire room, the boat is uninjured, the hull and
engine being in perfect condition.
1t is the opinion OF the surgeons in charge
of the men at the hospital that all of the in
jured will die
The Davis left up the river for the ship
yard tonight in tow of the Harvest Queen.
