H0BS0N IN WASHINGTON.
He Appears Before Naval Bureau on
Behalf Of Ills Work mt santiago

WASHINGTON. Oct 2a.-Naval Con-
structor Hobson arrived in this city to-
day from Philadelphia. where he took
part In the Peace Jubilee.
This afternoon he appeared before the
Board or Naval Bureau chiefs for the
purpose of explaining the condition Of
the Spanish ships wrecked off TIE coast
OF Santiago, and the progress and pros
poets of the efforts which he Is making
for their recovery.
1t is said, moreover, million dollars
will be required TO continue the opera
tions, and the Secretary OF the Navy
desires to know what chance there is OF
success before authorizing the exp sndi-
ture Of so large an amount of money.
The action Of the Department will be
based upon the reports OF the board Of
bureau chiefs after the examination OF
Naval Constructor Hobson.
The latter was with the board all the
afternoon and gave a great deal Of Gstail-
ed information as TO the condition Of the
wrecks. He was of opinion that IL was
useless to continue the service Of the
wrecking company any longer and thar
results did not warrant the $500 per day
IT has been receiving
Constructor Hobson said that In lis
opinion the Colon and the Nizcaya could
be raised and brought 10 the dry docks
at New York or Norfolk at 4 COST oil
500 900 for one and $4,000 for The other
and possibly both could be brought IN Tor
,i0O. go each Mr.. Hobson wanted 10 De
placed at the head Of the wrecHing com
pany which he should organize ana be
authorized to expend from $1,000 to S.pV-
600 on the two vessls. He said the huh OF
the Vizcaya was intact and he proposes
to build Golfer dam AROUND her and
bring her 10 the surface, after making
repairs necessary TO iioat her.
Ir Hobson also gave the bureau enters
some Information concerning the Relna
Mercedes and the Merrimac. Tho former
could be easily raised. he believed, for II
was apparent that she only nad been
scuttled. The Merrimac could Dc raised
and ne said she must be removed from
the mouth of the harbor In some way.
The board will have another meeting
Monday and possibly make some recon-
mendations to the Secretary regarding
the wrecks off Santiago.

PROF. NORTON ON
THE NEW AMERICA
Old Ideals Have Been Discarded for
Those of Other Nations.
ARE TO Be A MILITARY NATION
gcsuIt of the var VIII BE 10 Encour-
age All Brutal Tendencies-We
Have No Leaders But Must
Face Grave Responsibility.

CAMBRIDGE, MASS. oct. @.-Profes-
sor charles Elliot Norton, in ann address
before the graduates club OF Harvard COL
Ieae. expressed sentiments which are like
lv 10 arouse as mucn discussion among
Harvard men and others, as has followed
many OF Professor NortOn's recent utter
ances. The speakers subject was Ihe
New America" In the course OF MS
remarks he reviewed the conditions
which made this republic in many ways
an experiment in the history of democ-
racies.
Continuing, he said: 40 one would
have thought the American nation so de-
void of sense as to 90 TO var in the be
ginning OF the hot season In tropical
climate and without any adequate prep
srations to carry that war to success
ful issue.
\ REVELATION.
This war was a revelation. The old
America came to an end with declara-
ton of war The new America threw
over many Of the old ideals which have
been maintained by this old America and
substituted for them those of the other
nations of the world. We must make up
our minds to the new conditions. We are
10 be a military nation. Moreover, all
brutal tendencies will be encouraged by
the recognition Of force as the last APP
peal by the central government itself and
TOO. entanglements with other nations
must arise. Meanwhile we have no leaders
and hence we ind ourselves with great
responsibilities and no guidance for the
ignorant, uniformed. inhammable pop
ulace. and we are allowing events to car
rs US into the most dangerous situations.
THE PENSION LIST.
The whole system Of government need
ed 10 be revised and re-0rganized. The
pension list is list OF corruption and has
lowered the morals OF the recipients
while II has increased the national in
debtedness.
"Is there nothing to be done? The sit
uation is 10 be met with courage and a
determination 10 get the best ont OF a
bad case. We must divorce the govern
ment OF these dependencies from politics
or else they Will become dens of corrup-
ton"
Professor Norton advocated leaving the
Philippines 10 the care OF Spain.

DEATH AFTER A LONG TRANCE
Miss Cbarpeniier, of New Orleans Dies
After Sixteen Years Sleep.

NEW ORLEANS, LA, October u
Miss Elmire Carpenter, the last SIX
teen years of whose life have furnished
a scientific problem, is dead. When nine
years old she began 10 sleep longer than
was normal, and at the death OF her little
brother. TO whom she was passionateiy
devoted. her sleeping spells began 10 be
more prolonged. She was eighteen years
old at that time.
Then she had an attack OF fever and
fell into Il trance. which has lasted for
sixteen years, with intermissons OF two
hours daily. when she was fed. During
these intermissions she was In the full

ciated her condition.
Miss Charpentier was a daughter of
AbnOir S. Charpentier. of Lobit q Char
pentier. one of the wealthlest commits
sion houses In New orleans during the
ante-bellum days. The war swept away
their fortune, and her father died, leav-
ing the family's circumstances very
sadly altered.
For three days before her death Miss
Charpentier evinced no sign Of her usual
Weakening, and DR.. c. J. Lopez was called
in. II was hard TO determine II life was
really extinct. for her condition while I'm
the frances was deathlike. Every test

TO Be PLAYED HERE NOV. 18TH.

On November I2th the lovers OF football
will have the opportunity TO witness a
game that will be second only 20 the
Virgina-North Carolina game on Thanks
giving Day on that day the strong team
from the Virginia Military Institute and
tho team from the Georgetown University
will battle for honors.
I'D TO he present season the V. NJ. l..
have been content with one coach, but
now. in view OF the strong team they
expect TO play this season. two coaches
have been at work on the men-Messrs.
Boyle and Dickinson, of the University
OF Pennsylvania-and much is expected
from their work, as the PennsylYanla
style has revolutioneizecN football.
VALUE OF ATHLETICS.
The college authorities. recognizing the
value Of athletics in conjunction with
military training. have permitted the
team to come here to meet the George
town boys Military training is, also OF
much assistance TO the football players
as is shown by the record of the west
Point team, which, with its little oppor-
tuity for practice. compares favorabiy
with the best teams
This will be the first time these teams
have met, and It will be the first trip
here Of the V. NJ J. team.
RELATIVE MERITS.
Georgetown plays the University or
Virginia In Washington on November SIN,
and by comparing these two games the
relative merits Of the two Virginia
teams can be readily observed-always a
source OF speculation and much conten-
ton by V. NJ T. adherents.
The Thanksgiving Day game Is usually
considered the feature Of the football
season here. but there IS really no valid
reason why It should not become as
popular and fashionable to attend other
first-class games. and the contest be-
tween these two teams on November
18th will be very nearly as interesting
as that on the oath.
