Poem Breathing Feeling For an An,
glo-American Entente.

X
London, March 2s.-All the morning
papers give prominence TO poem by
Alfred Austin. the poet laureate. which
appears under a brief extract from a
New York dispatch recording feeling
in favor of an Angio-American entente.
The poem is as follows;
What is the voice hear
On the winds OF the western sea?
Sentinel. listen from out Cape clear,
And say what the voice may be.
'Tis a proud. free people calling loud
to a people proud and free.
And it SAYS to them: "1linsmen. hail.
We severed have bean too long.
Now let rs have done with a WORKOUT
The tale of ancient wrong
And our friendship last long as love doth
And be stronger than death is strong"
Answer them. sons of the seif-same race.
And blood OF the self-same clan.
Let US speak with each other face 10 face,
And answer as man to man;
And Loyalty love and trust each other as
none but freemen can.
Nov fling them out the breeze
Shamrock thistle and rose:
And the Star -spangIed banner unfurl
with these
A message 10 friends and foes
Wherever the sails of peace ere seen
and wherever the war wind blows
A message to bond and thrall to wake
For v-herever we come we twain.
The throne Of the tyrant shall rock and
quake:
And his menace be void and vain.
For you are lords of "a strong. young land.
and we are lords of tn. main.
Yes, this is the voice of the blun March
yale:
We severed have been too long.
But now we have done with wornout
tale
The tale of an ancient wrong:
And our friendship last long as lost doth
last. and stronger than death is
strong,

BROOKLYN NAVY YARD.
Work There Now Means Twenty-four
Hours Every DaV.

New York, March 2S.-Beginning to-
day the work at the navy yard will be
under high pressure. Orders have been
issued to all the chiefs of the yard that
hereafter work viii be continued night
and day. In addition to the large work
of the yards in changing of the recent
purchases OF yachts and tugs for the
auxiliary navy the ammunition hoists
of the battleship Texas may be altered.
The alterations viii probably require a
week.
A story that the Texas has a hole in
her hull is denied by the officers. There
are now five yachts and seven tugs in
the navy yard that have been pur-
chased for use as an auxiliary fleet.
The yachts are the Mayfiower, Her
moline, Columbina, Amy and Alicia. The
tugs are the Ivens, Wise, f. L. Lucken-
bach. W. a. Luckenbach, FL Toro,
Winthrop and Atlas. The two latter ar
rived at the yard today. The report of
the board of survey to prepare specifi-
cations and estimates for the alteration
and armament of these vessels is I'M
der consideration at Washington.

NO ARMIsTICE FOR CUBA.
Junta VIII Reject Such Proposition
From Mckinley.

New York, March 2S-"The United
States may make arrangements with
Spain. but the Cubans will never con-
sent to an arrnistice or any other plan
hut independence" said Horatio S Ru-
bens, counsel for the Cuban junta, to-
day. THE Cubans would be thankful
for the interest shown by this country.
but would have to respectfully decline
all such propositions. 1t is an absolute
loss of time for the United States to en-
terrain any negotiations of the kind
with Spain. By an armistice Spain
would save S10,000000 a month for six
months. The Spaniards know that the
Cubans would not enter into an armis-
tice and they desire the United States
TO offer the plan that their refusal
may remove the sympathy and support
of the American people"

WORK AT MARE ISLAND.
Complaint of Insuficiency of Men to
Go Ahead With Repairs.

Vallejo, Cal, March 2S.-Work on
the Charleston is greatly delayed ow-
ing to the trouble experienced in secur-
ing sufficient working force to COM
plete the repairs mapped out for that
vessel. acquisitions for additional
workmen are issued daily, but the force
Is not yet sufficient to accomplish the
work necessary within the required
time, and it will be April Is before the
vessel is ready for sea. She will be
transferred to the Atlantic coast.
Work on the Yorktown will not be
commenced in earnest until after the
completion of the Charleston, the en-
tire force of workmen being devoted
to the repairs on the latter vessel
Orders have been received to paint
the vessels black. Instructions have
been received to ship at once all the
six, three and one-pounder gatling
guns now at the yard, including those
of the Philadelphia, Yorktown and
Pensacola. The shipment will require
three cars.

GRAND ARMY's OFFER.
Old Veterans Who Gould Take the
Place of Regulars.

Utica, n. Y, March 2s-A letter from
Department Commander &c. A. R.)
Colonel Shaw to Secretary Of War Al
ger suggested in case of war the vet
Grams he could put into the field could
be used to man stations where federal
troops are now located. that all regu-
lars might be free for use at the front
in case of war. This would obviate the
necessity of holding regulars at such
places as Buffalo, Sackett's Harbor,
Pittsburg, etc. Secretary Alger thanks
Colonel Shaw for his offer and says
that he is very much interested in the
suggestions, but hopes the future turn
of events may make it unnecessary to
adopt them.

Washington March 2S.-The Uncom-

likelihood that the Indian apprOpria-
ton bill can be disposed of before that
time. Senator Allison said this even
ing that he would not take that bill up
in conference until the sundry civil bill
was disposed of. This bill, which was
reported this afternoon, is regarded as
certain to occupy several days. There
fore the only thing possible to prevent

opening for six months. Even this will

MGREw's LUCK.

The prominence of our foreign rela-
tions in the senate is operating to pro-
/ long the official career of II. n. Nc
Grew. In view of the probability that
discussion of Cuban affairs will occupy
I a large part of the week. the con-
sideration of nominations In executive
session is likely to be postponed until
next week. The Herald correspondent
is assured by a number of senators that
McGrew will prove short horse soon
carried, and that he will be rejected by
at least ten majority. His ridiculous
letter to the president and his adm:s-
sion that he would fool the people of
Arizona to get the governorship has
injured his chances with many senators
of his own party.

STAR ROUTE CONTRACTS.
Representative King introduced a bill
this afternoon providing that Star route
contractors shall not submit any por-
lions of their contracts for a less sum
than they get from the government.
This bill is designed to assist in increas-
ing the compensation of western mail
route contracts, now much underpaid
by the big eastern contractors.
Judge King also introduced bills to-
day for the relief of ]. c. Wilson, of
Sanpete, and Mrs. William Huntington.
of Salt Lake. Wilson and Huntington
rendered services for the United States
marshal of Utah in 1856. for which they
We're never compensated.
KING DISSATISFIED.
Judge King is greatly dissatisfied at
the apparent plan of the administra-
rfs,,, I
OF freedom. He said that the autOn-
Omy policy could have but one logical
result, and that was that the United
States would have to coerce the Cubans
to accept autonomy by force, and this
would outrage every lover of liberty in
the world.
