SECRETARY LONG
Advises the Public Not to Be Under
Misapprehensions With Regard
To the Naval Preparations of Late-Ths
WarIike Movements Have Mostly Been
the Ordinary Dispositions Which
Are Made From Time to Time.

WASHINGTON, Feb 2S.-Secretary
Long enjoyed a sound sleep Friday
night, the first he has had for some
time, and in consequence he felt so
refreshed Saturday morning that he
decided to abandon his proposed alb
sence from the navy department. and
continue at his duties. So he was
early at his desk and in consultation
with Assistant Secretary Roosevelt
and Capt. CrOwninshield, chief of the
navigation bureau As to the outlook
he said he thought things were looking
much better He said the public ought
not to be under any apprehension
with regard to avail movements; that
so far they had mostly been the or
binary dispositions which are made
from time to time; for instance, the
shipping of guns to New York is to
supply the Chicago and other vessels
which are under reconstruction there,
and they would 60 in any event. The
gun factory at Washington is where
they are made, and they are sent to
various points as the occasion requires.
So too the call for more men, he said,
is simply the revival of the recon-
mendation in his annual report.
This statement by the secretary evil
deity was made to allay the impress
sion caused by the reports of heavy
shipments of guns from the Washing
ton navy yard and other warlike meas
ures. The movements of some of the
warships, such as the Detroit and
Marblehead towards Key West, had
already been shown to have been in
accordance with orders not only made
but published in the newspapers as
well before the Maine disaster, so that
the secretary's explanation on this
point is only confrmatory of the state
ments of the subordinate officials of
the navy department
The telegraph brought news Satur-
day morning of the arrival at Key
West of the two vessels namely, the
Detroit, coming from Mobile, where
she was sent to participate in the Mar
di Gras festivities, and the Marblehead,

A COSTLY SMOKE.


National Tobacco Warehouse, Louisville
Burned-Three Men Were Seriously In
iured, Two of Whom May DIe-Loss
About S1,OOO,OOO.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Feb 26.-Picking,
drying and steaming warehouses of
the National Tobacco Co., situated at
Twenty-fourth and Main streets, were
totally destroyed by fire Friday morn
ing. The loss will amount to 81, OOO,-
600, fully covered by insurance. Mr..
w. B. Duke, of New York, president
of the American Tobacco Co., of which
the National Tobacco Co., of Louis
vile, is a branch, is in the city and
witnessed the destruction of his pros
erty. He said that it would be at once
rebuilt.
The fire was discovered at o'clock
on the second floor of the building
used for drying purposes. Three
alarms called the entire department to
the scene, and although the fremen
worked heroicaIly they could do little
less than save the property adjoining,
as the three big buildings which oc-
cupy nearly the entire square between
Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth and
Main and Market streets were seen to
be inevitably doomed
From the three-stOry drying build
ing the flames spread rapidly west to
the four-story warehouse and east to
the three-stOry steaming house. In
the building which first caught 200
hands, mostly women and children,
were employed, but the majority of
these escaped safely, only few being
slightly injured, as did 200 who were
at work in the steaming building. In
the fOur-stOry warehouse 1000 men
were at work, but they had plenty of
time to escape.
Three men were hemmed in by the
flames and all were more or less injur-
ed before they could make their egress
from the burning plant.
The injured are: George TisshendOrff,
foreman picking department, back in
jured and severe injuries about head
and chest; William Semple, picker,
skull fractured; John Pacl1ham, both
legs broken and internally injured
Semple and Packham will probably die.
The flames gained rapid Roadway
and the fire department was hindered
to a great degree by lack of water
seven engines being at one time use
less. Falling walls added to the dan
ger of the work, and the escape of
some of the fremen was all but mirac-
ulous.
When the alarm of fire was sounded
in the picking department the en-
ployes of this building began to make
their escape in an orderly manner. but
George Tisshendorf, foreman of two of
the floors, and John Packham and
William Semple remained too long in
the burning building and were forced
to jump for their lives. Packham and
Semple sustained injuries which will
probably result in their death.
Fourteen hundred men, women and
children are thrown out of employ
ment. The origin of the fire is un-
known. The night Waterman, Lewis
Leach, said that he left the building
to go home at 6 o'clock, and that every
thing was all right then. The force of
employees go to work at $50 and it was
not until after they had been at work
about two hours and a half that the
fire was discovered.
The loss will be in the neighborhood
of $1,000, 0OO
