STATUS OF RoUNDsMEN.
Can't he Reduced ir Appointed by The Police
Board-2O9 Not So Appointed.

The vexed question of the roundsmen's tenure
Of office was decided by Police Commissioner
York yesterday. He Is of the opinion that the
roundsmen once appointed by the board cannot
be reduced to the ranks. Tho charter says that
the Chief shall recommend and the board make
permanent assignments" to the rank. The
question Is whether the word permanent"
means for good and all. as 1t has meant In Brook
Ign for some time. or during the pleasure of tho
board. For the latter conclusion the fact spoke
that the office of roundsman Is not mentioned as
a rank in the charter, but always az an assign
ment. The recital of promotion begins, for In
stance. with the rank of Sergeant. TO which,
says the charter, "patrolmen assigned to duty
as roundsmen" shall be eligible.
There are 2O2 roundsmen In the boroughs of
Manhattan and the Bronx who have heretofore
held their places at the will of the Chief. They
will continue to do so until. upon his recon-
the board has given them perma-
nent place. This may not be done at once. per-
haps not for q long time.
A certain percentage OF them may oven DO
left as they are. with uncertain tenure OF office,
In order to pick from them good men for pro-
motion. The roundsman's grade is the first step
in the ladder. That was the claim advanced for
the old plan on which tho roundsmen could be
reduced any day. The claim for the new 10 that
1t will do away with much nagging of tho
patrol force. The roundsman was judged by the
number of complaints no made. Secure in his
office. he. will be less oficious and more effective.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Ex-senator Davis. Chair
man Of the Committee on Foreign Relations, to-
day concluded in executive session his speech,
begun yesterday, in favor Of tho ratification Of
the Hawaiian annexation treaty. He was fol-
lowed by Senator Allen Of Nebraska, who spoke
for an hour in opposition to the treaty, andsthen.
because no other Senator desired TO speak, the
Senate at 8 o'clock adjourned, after having
given but O little over two hours TO the consid-
Grafton Of the treaty.
Mr.. Allen undertook to answer each reason
given by Senator Davis why the treaty should
be ratified, and said that the whole argument
of the Chairman Of the Committee on Foreign
Relations was based on supposition rather than
fact.
At the rate Of progress now being mado the
debate on tho treaty is apt to continue for two
weeks or more, and the result of the vote 10

opponents OF the treaty are still loud and per-
jority, but a careful poll shows that the advo-
Gates of ratification are not far from right
when they claim to have assurances from al.
that they will vote for the treaty.
Senator Turpie Of Indiana is one of the Demo-
Gratis who favor ratification, but his support Ii

The Senator has In mind q proposition which
he will probably offer before the vote IL taken,
providing for the admission OF Hawaii into the
Union as a Federal district, to be governed by
commissions appointed by. tho President, and
deriving their authority from COnQresa- lust
as the District of Columbia is governed. Such
a provision. as this In tho treaty would, of
course, not be binding upon future Congresses,
but the friends of the treaty think II could do
no harm and they are willing to accept 1t.

A motion of Moses Esberg to compel Justice

dispute Is whether under the new charter the
municipal courts went into existence oh Jan. ]
or on Feb. !.
All the District Court Justices met before tho

Justice Bolte, and decided that their district
courts would cease TO do business on Jan. l,

WASHINGTON. Jan. 12.-In view Of The opposi.
ton by missionary and other interests to the
nomination Of Charles Page Bryan Of Chicago
to be Minister to China. 1t has been arranged
to transfer Col. Edwin ii. Conger of Iowa, now
Minister to Brazil. to the Chinese mission, and
Mr.. Bryan will take Mr.. Conger's place as Minis

the Senate this afternoon.
The nomination OF Mark 8. Brewer of Wash
ington to DO Civil Service Commissioner was
also sent in. .
In endeavorlng to find a suitable place for
Mr.. Bryan tho President encountered many
difficulties. His original intention was to trans
fer Mr.. Congor to The Hague and send Mr.. New
ell, the Minister there, to Pekin, leaving Rio
objected to this arrangement, as the salary Of
Minister to the Netherlands ia 81. 300. while
his post as the Envoy to Brazil. pays, $l2,.
900. 1t then occurred to Mr.. Mckinley, It
had formed early in his administration of
sending to China William w. Rockhili,
the present Minister at Athens. The missionary
societies, who have good friends In official cir
was inclined to do for Mr.. Rockhill. and imme-
diately made a protest against his transfer TO
China on the ground that he was an infdel.
Whether or not their contention was true,
the fact remains that Mr.. Rockhill's chances
for securing the Oriental post were, lost; The
assertion was made to-day on good authority
that the President had not contemplated the
transfer OF Minister Angel from Constantinople
to Pekln. Mr.. Angel was acceptable to the
missionary element, but he went Into the diplo-
matic service with tho intention OF resigning
when he had adjusted the claims OF American
citizens against Turkey.

THE DRY DOCK MAJ COLLAPSE
Naval officials Fear That the Brooklyn struct
ure VIII Nave to He Abandoned.

naval OnicinlB Fear TAat the Brooklyn Struct.
ure Will Have to ne Abandoned.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-Naval officials express
apprehension that 1t will be necessary to aban.
don dry dock No. 8 at the Brooklyn Navy Yard.
1t has cost the Government 4 large amount of
money and was available for a short time only,
but 1t is beloved that the Navy Department will
merely be put to additional expense in attempt
ing to repair it without the prospect OF ever
using 1t for docking warships. There ia grave
fear that whatever repairs are made, the dock
will collapse with the first heavy vessel that
enters it. This pessimistic view Is based on
knowledge OF the character of the soil on which
the structure is built.
The foundations rest in sandy loan, which
runs into quicksand and on made ground. The
insecurity of the soil has been known for a long
time, but recent investigation has shown that
weaker than was supposed. This difficulty cam
not be remedied to any great extent. The con-
slant leakage has loosened the sand and made
ground, with the result that the dock Is in
clined to be wobbly. A heavy armorclad would
increase the pressure SO much that some naval
officers predict that the dock would give way,
II the thorough examination which Con-
structor Bowles and Civil Engineer Endicott are
conducting confirms this belief, 1t will be abso-
abandon the dock. Secretary Long has decided
TO proceed against the surviving member of the
firm of Thomas g. Augustin Walsh, who under
original contractor. had failed. The dock was
accepted from them, all accounts paid, and the
contract cancelled.
Judge-Advocate-Gene Of tho navy, wrote
letters to-day to the surviving Walsh brother
and his bondsmenc calling their attention to the
discovery that some Of the work had not been
that they will be held responsible for the en-
pense incurred in remedying these defects.
