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

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-Secretary
Long enjoyed 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 naval movements; that
so far they had mostly been the or.
dinary 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 go 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.
mendaton in his annual report.
This statement by the secretary evil
de- tly 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
we'll 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,

HAVANA. Feb. &C.. Twenty unknown
bodies of the crew were recovered
from the wreck by the divers at noon
Friday. The bodies were frightfully
burned and mangled, and it may be
impossible to ever identify some of
them. Holzer who made such a brave
fight. died in the hospital Friday. All
the wounded will leave here Sunday on
the Bachc for Key West. The physi-
clans consider it safe to move them
now.

GREAT ACTIVITY
At the Watervliet Arsenal-Entire Force
Working Night and Day.

ALBANY. N. Y, Feb. 2s...The great.
est activity known since the late re-
bellion is now witnessed at the Water
vliet arsenal and tho entire force is
working night and day
On Friday night an order was re-
ceived for the immediate shipment of
two car loads of 12-inch proiectiles for
Fort Hamilton with the greatest pos
sible haste. The projcctiles were boxed
for shipment and Saturday afternoon
they were dispatched to Fort Hamil-
ton. Orders have also been received
for the shipment of all projectiles now
on hand to the several forts about New
York and to forward all completed guns
as speedily as possible to the proving
grounds at Sandy Hook.
Such an order has not been received
at Watervliet since the close of the
war. 1t is expected that at least six
carloads of projectiles will be shipped
durin G the present week.

the empty case was one of those re-

In the absen of other information

tell us that. No torpedo that | ever

Continuing, the admiral said:
