Decides to Make a Large Reduction
in Expenses.

SAN FRANCISCO, March 23.-A
meeting of the State Lunacy Commits
sion was held in this city this afternoon
for the purpose of considering a new
schedule of salaries for all employees
of State hospitals.
Governor Budd, Attorney Fitzgerald,
DR.. Hatch and DR.. Matthews were pi es-
ent.
The subject was discussed at great
length, the opinion being that radical
reduction must be had in the expenses
of all the asylums over which the Com
mission had control
To begin with, a resolution was
adopted directing all superintendent
to practice more economy hencetort tn
and to make no improvements. unless
absolutely necessary. The resolution
said that the price of food during tine
coming year would be increased and
the strictest economy must therefore
prevail.
The Commission decided to reduce
the expenses of the institutions fully
SO 900 year. A reduction of so, 600
was decided upon originally, but there
has been so much complaint of the
employees and officials that the figures
were changed.
The reduction will all come from the
salaries and employees. The schedule
will be finally adopted tomorrow.
A number of offices will be abolished
by the new rules.

a bombshell came and destroyed the
hopes of the contestants when a Mrs
Malloy told her story. She declared
she was at one time the wife of George
NJ. Kasson, had lived with him as such
during the years these two children
were said to have been born, and that
she had never given birth to child by
KasSon She is Il woman of "A years,
and astonished everybody by the re-
markably clear manner in which she
| recounted all the principal events OF
her long life.
She was on the stand under cross
examination to-day for several hours,
but in spite of the tremendous and
skillful efforts of the able attorneys
who represent the other side to shake
her evidence, they have not as yet
snapped a single thread in the chain
of her story
The most important testimony in the
case to-day was that Of Mrs. Sarah E.
Milleken, cousin of George w. Indy
a claimant in the case, and the puta
tive son Of Thomas Indy. Mrs Mile
ken swore that she frequently saw
Indy at the breast of his mother, Mrs
Indy and was present when Mrs.
Indy commenced TO wean MIN. The
mother Of the witness had attended
Mrs I!indy during her confinement.
4 dramatic incident was the identii-
cation by Thomas Wilson, SO years of
age, Of the family record IN the Indy
Bible. He had written the record fifty
one years ago. He identified the hand
writing as his own, but could not re-
member having written it, though that
fact had already developed in Lindy's
testimony. He was present at the
marriage of the Lindys and the Kas-
sons, and knew all about the family
affairs. His testimony was very I'M
favorable to the Indy claimants.

the ocean wash has thrown the sand
TO the northeast side OF the bay, broad
ening the beach on that side. while ma.
terially deepening the shoal water on
the southeast and south sides. The
harbor proper is thus both wider and
deeper than the map indicates. Old

that the water at the end of the old
Government wharf has deepened five
fathoms during the past eighteen years.

Lieutenant Colwel of London was
directed by the Navy Department to
urge the builders Of the recently pur-
chased cruiser Albany, formerly the
Brazilian vessel ArualI. to hasten the
construction of the ship with all posi-
bic speed. In the ordinary course of
the work, the vessel would not be com
pIeted before next December, but it is
believed by officials of the NAVY De-
partment that if the builders are
placed under pressure she can be made
ready for sea within three months,
and perhaps in little less time.

days she will leave for the United
States. She viii make the journey
across the Atlantic without difficulty,
as she is a good seagoing vessel, and
her coal capacity is ample for the trip
to this country. She is a twenty three
knot vessel, and about 100 feet long.
While of the same general type as

SPANISH FORTIFYING PORTO
RICO
Word reached the Navy Department
officials to-day that the Spanish au-
thorities have taken steps to supple
ment the existing Notifications at San
Juan de Puerto Rico, the main port Of
the island of Porto Rico. The news is
regarded as significant. Porto Rico is
the only other possession which be-
longs to the Spanish Government on
this hemisphere besides Cuba. The city
OF Porto Rico is fortified after the old
style prevalent in early days The de-
lenses consist of a wall which com
pletely circles the several forts at
strategic points, While the only points
of egress and ingress are through mas
sive gates These Notifications are be-
ing strengthened, and the armament
has been increased by two large guns
of formidable pattern and caliber. San
Juan has 23,431 inhabitants.
GUNS AND GUN CARRIAGES.

the Ordnance Bureau in the discre-
ton of General Flagler This amount
although large, was not, in the opin-
ion of General Flagler, sufficient to
meet the requirements of the present

the Secretary was to obtain an addi-
