THE ARMY'S INCREASE
Still Absorbs the Attention Of Hou e Com
mttee on Military Affairs.

Washington, Dec. 13-At the hearing
before the House committee on mill
tary affairs, relative to the proposed
increase of the army, today Brig
Gen. Schwan of the adjutant general S
office detailed at length the organza-
ton of the army under the plan pro-
posed in the Hull bill which has the
Enforcement of the secretary of war;
Mr.. Sulzer of New York, asked:
General, what would you propose as
means of stopping friction between
the commanding general and the ad-
Jutant general of the army
/. Gen. Schwan said he could not an
swer, and there was a chorus of Wig
orous protests from members of the
committee. Chairman Hull ruled that
the question was improper and Mr.
Suffers colleagues, Messrs. Cox and
Hay urged him to pursue the ques-
ton. Mr.. SulZer said Lieut. Gen Scho-
field had gone into the subject quite
freely but did not wish to insist upon
the question.
Major johnson explained the features
of the proposed reorganization. He
emphasized the need OF organizing the
cavalry in times of peace, as it was i'm.
possible to properly equip and train
cavalry at time of emergency Mr..
Cox sharply questioned Major johnson
as to the relative merits of volunteers
and regulars. Chairman Hull insisted
that his question was not pertinent 10
the hearing. Mr.. Cox pursued the dis
cussion, however, and argued that the
volunteers We're the best fighters, as
shown by the experience of the Civil
War and the recent Spanish War. Ma
jor Johnson said he had no criticisms
for the volunteers. although he MAIN
tanned that military training was an
Important element in the fighting abi-

Major W. A. Simpson followed in the
artillery branch OF the proposed re-
organization. He urged the battery as
the limit of artillery organization in
preference TO the regiment. Major
Simpson. Who served under Gen. Mar-
rift at Manila. was asked by Mr. Hay
as to what cooperation might be ex-
pected from the Fiiipinos. The major
said opinion differed as ITO this among
the UE&ted States officers in the Philip

be ready 70 cooperate with the A,neri-

motion for postponement of further
consideration of the bill until Jan. 10,
by which time the report of the com

Morgan antagonized the motion,
pleading for the continuation of the
debate. saying there We're many points
connected with the enterprise upon
which light could be thrown by the
Walker report. He denied that the
Maritime Company had ever applied
TO the United States for assistance,
but on the other hand, the application
had been made to them because they
owned the only concession. He declar-
Ell, in answer to suggestion by Tur-
PIE, that it would never be possible to
get an agreement binding the United
states, Nicaragua and Costa RIGA, be-
cause of Costa Rica's suspicious of
Nicaragua. Costa Rica knew perfectly
well that Nicaragua was desirious of
nothing so much as the downfall OF
Costa RIGA. He spoke of Costa RIGA S
bargain counter in the matter of grant
ing concessions, and when Turpie in
terrupted him with the statement that
this was not an expression of amity
towards Nicaragua, he retortel that
Turpie was growing sentimental on the
subject. He declared that Mr.. Grace S
purpose in getting a new contract was
not to build a canal, but to own it
to hold up the government. He de-
nounced this concession as ''rascally
contract"
Mr.. Grace had called on him twice in
one day, without being invited and had
urged the abandonment of government
aid. In reply to a question from him
Mr.. Grace had said he expected to get
his money to build the canal from Lon
don. This fact showed where we were
drifting, and was there senator who
would be willing to see the canal plac-
ed under the control of foreigners.

Wrecking Expedition Obliged to Seek
Shelter from Heavy Northwestern.

Provincetown, Mass, Dec. 13.-The
search expedition under command of
Lieut.. Haipine of the navy, started,
early this morning. and the tugs took
along the SCHOONER E. l.. Nash with
divers and diving apparel to use. The
fleet, however, only went as far as
Wood End, as the northwest gale
steadily increased all the morning and
the expedition returning to the wharf,
shortly after noon. The sea off the
end of the Cape was fearfully rough
all day, and very little shipping came
round Highland Light. AS stated in
The Associated Press dispatches, Sat
urday, the Halpine expedition will not
only looks for traces of the Portland,
but also for other wrecks in the vicin-
ity of Cape Cod.
None of the officers of the feet would
say anything, this afternoon, regarding
the object of the search or the results,
so far. but it is generally known that
little progress has been made and
nothing definite located as yet. If the
weather moderates, tomorrow, the
large mast reported, last week, some
miles south of Long Point, will be Wis
tied and an attempt made to establish
its identity. The present conditions
however, point to a continuance of the
northwest gale, and it may be.a day. OF
two before the tugs again start out.
The expedition is, without doubt. q
government affair, under the direction
of the photographic Office of the navy
and while heretofore there have beer
few similar attempts to locate wrecks
it is, nevertheless, entirely in keeping
with the object of the office. which ha:
a special department for Investigating
derelicts, sunken wrecks or other OBJ
structions to navigation.
All the officers have been extremely
reticant ever since their arrival here
probably for the reason they. do no
wish to be identified with any private

larly for the Portland. The hydro

FOR PROPER RECOGNITION.
Secretary Long Sends Congress Bills For
Rewarding Bravery Ia Navy.


Washington, Dec. 13.-To carry out the
suggestion contained in his annual report
relative to curing the defects of the pres
ent laws governing rewards for distin-
guished services and promotions in the
navy, Secretary Long, today, sent to
Congress the drafts of two bills on the
subject. These have been prepared with
great care by Judge Advocate Lemly and
it is generally believed provide for the
proper recognition of extraordinary brav-
cry without involving the virtual punish
ment of officers who have honorably AMI
faithfully done their full duty.
The first bill provides for the bestowal
of three classes of medals for distin-
guished conduct in battle. carrying with
it an increase of pay ranging from 5 to Is
per cent. a courage" medal for extra
ordinary heroism, and Service" medal
for distinguished public service in time
of war.
The second bill provides that the ad-
vancement in grade of an officer for SER
vice in the war with Spain shall not IN
terfere with the regular promotion OF
other officers, but that the officer ad-
vanced shall constitute an additional
number in the grade to which he Is pro-
NOTED.

1t seems almost wicked to tl1ink of
the amount of money people having
only limted means spend for medicine,
hoping to be restored to health.
There are thousands. of worthless
remedies continually being put on the
market. Neither we nor the public
know the contents of many of the
patent medicines and the secret nos
trums which are continually being
sold.
About vinol We can tell different
story
We know all about Vinol. We know
il is bona fide discovery in the
science of medicine. We know it is
highly endorsed by prominent doctors,
nurses. and chemists.
Mrs. Rose Hawthorne Lathrop, so
well known for her unselfish charitable
work among the poor of New York,
writes: The stories l could tell Of
changed aspect. and strength instead
of weakness. after a course of Vinol.
would sound like good tidings to in

Vinol will restore the appetite, and in

women and children. I have given
Vinol in many cases among the desti-
tute sick and great success, where cod

impractical because it could not be
borne by the stomach

you are nothing out. for We will re-
