That the secretary of the navy be and
he is hereby authorized, whenever in
his judgment it shall become eXpedi-
ent for the best interests of the couD-
try TO do so, to secure options upon
and conSummate the purchase of such
battleships, cruisers, rams, torpedo

the necessary armament and equip
ment for the same as in his judgment
are necessary to place the naval
strength of the country upon proper
footing for immediate hostilities with
any foreign power with which the
same may be threatened; and that for
the purpose of concentrating such pur-
chase there is hereby appropriated the
sum of $20,000,000 to be Immediately
available. The resolution was referred
to the naval committee. Mr.. Brom-
we'll said he introduced the resolution
to call the attention of the naval com
mittee to the necessity for providing
such contingent fund in the naval ap-
preparation bill. If the committee
does not include such provision in
the bill when it is reported he will
offer it as an amendment in the house.
The sundry civil appropriation bill
was passed after four days of debate
The most important of the last changes
was the elimination on point of or

Tins and survivors of the Maine disas-
ter. About twenty pages of the sun
dry civil bill were disposed of. Many
efforts were made by different mem
bers to inject river and harbor items

100000 for Wilmington, Del, and
increasing the appropriation for the

pressing the sense that the relations

the Maine disaster be determined, re-
main only in the formal and official
way demanded by the needs of the
respective nations" Mr.. Cannon in
terposed a point of order against the
amendment and was promptly sup
ported by the chair.

The Parkersburg Journal has not
added anything to the esteem in
which it is held over the state by it's
recent attack on Lieut.. Col. c. l..
Smith now with the First Regiment
at Knoxville. The attack was caus-
ed by criticism of the war depart
ment which has recently appeared in
the Index. The Journal says some
very bitter and unjust things about
the Colonel in consequence. 1t must
be known to the editor who penned
the lines of criticism that Smith has
not written line for his paper nor
has he dictated a single editorial ut
terance of it since he left Fairmont
for the front, He is in the army at
great loss to his business interests
Nothing but his sense of what was
due to the men of the regiment from
HIM has kept him from resigning.
He does not wish the honor there is
connected with it nor is he in the
regiment from a sense of vanity.
There is nothing OF the kind in Col.
Smiths make up. No one who
knows Smith believed for an instant
any of the things said about him by
the Parkersburg paper and it is now
in the position of one who has made
an objectionable assault on man
who has not given them the slightest
ground for it. An humble apology
is very much in order.

The officials of the Umpire mine
at Brownsville where eight men were
recently killed have been arrested and
will be crimlnally prosecuted. Dam
age suits have also been instituted by
the relatives of the dead men. This
will likely teach a lesson which is so
badly needed. That Miners who are
exposed to so many peculiar perils
should be carefully looked after and
their lives protected in every way
possible. The sad lesson learned from

much good.
