DULL DAY AT DEPARTMENTS.
AdmiraIs Sampson and SchIey Ex-
pected i'm Washington To-Day.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 81 - Conditions
about the great State, War and Navy build
ing practically have resumed their nor
nal aspect. Only few clerks were on duty
in the principal bureaus to-day, and they
0id only few hours work. Acting Secre-
tary of the Navy Allen said this evening
that this had been the quietest day in his
department since the destruction of the
Maine. During the afternoon he received
sixteen dispatches fourteen of which relat-
ed to the movements of vessels, arrivals or
departures, the remaining two referring to
matters of the merest detail Rear Ad-
:niral Sampson and Rear Admiral SchIey
are expected to arrive in Washington some
time tomorrow. The appointment of the
two admirals, respectively, on the Cuban
and Porto Rican commissions necessarily
will cause them to be detached temporarily
from their present commands. The detach-
ment, 1t is said by the naval authorities.
will be only temporary. In the absence of
Admiral Sampson, Commodore Philip viii
have command Of the squadron of vessels in
New York. Repairs on the ships will be
pushed with vigor, and as rapidly as pos
sible they will be put in excellent condition
for sea duty in either war or peace. No
determination has yet been reached by the
naval authorities of the question of re-
organizing the naval squadrons on a peace
footing in view of the new conditions which
now confront the United States 1t is
scarcely likely that any considerable
changes will be made before a successful
termination of the pending peace negotia-
tions shall have been reached.

OBJECTS OF GREAT INTEREST.
Uncle Sans Fighting ships visited by
Thousands of People.

NEW YORK, Aug. 2l.-The ships belong
ing to Admiral Simpsons fleet received
thousands of callers to-day. The crowds
which visited the war vessels were second
only to those which greeted them during
their progress up the North river on Satur-
day. 1t is estimated that the Staten island
ferry boats broke their records for carrying
people to-day. The entire fleet of six ferry
boats was in service. During the greater
portion OF the day they carried as many
passengers as the law would allow. Inas-
much as the big Castleton and the Robert
Garrett lave a capacity close to 5000, il was
estimated tonight that fully l2500O people
visited the island. Small boats were In great
demand in the vicinity of the Staten island
shore and the boatmen fairly coined money.
Even canal boats were impressed into the
service. 1t is estimated that at times at
least $50 small boats swarmed In and out
among the big war ships

NEW HIERARCHY PROPOSED.
How the Vatican Would Deal with
the Church Situation.

LONDON, Aug. 22-The Times Vienna
correspondent says: The Politsche Corre-
spondenz publishes a dispatch from Rome
to the effect that the Vatican will imme-
diately open negotiations with the United
States for the appointment of a new hierar-
chy in the Spanish colonies which come into
the possession of America. 1t is anticipated
that an arrangement will be made similar
to that made after the annexation of Mexi-
can territory by the Republic. There the
Spanish clergy were gradually superseded
by priests of other nationalities chiefly
French. The latter were found to be better
suited to the purpose than English or Irish
priests, as they more readily acquired a
knowledge of the Spanish language and Sc
cured the confidence of the inhabitants. 1t
is thought probable that a similar course
will be adopted in Cuba, Porto Rico and
perhaps eventually in the Philippines"

Spanish Treasury Was Not Empty
Collision with Rebels Not Feared.

LONDON, Aug. 22.-The Manila corre-
spondent of the Daily Telegraph, in dis
patch dated Sunday, says: General Mer-
rttt has proclaimed a government of mill
tary occupation. The news of the armistice
arrived on the 18th. 1t is feared that the
Americans may restore the Philippines to
Spain and thus reinaugurate a fresh period
of tyranny, extortion and rebellion. The
Spanish guarantees for freedom of the press
and religion and for just administration are
useless unless under foreign supervision.
''The Americans found $SOOOO0 in the Span
ish treasury.
THE unfinished message which sent you
last Saturday was dispatched while street
firing was still proceeding. This proved to
be the solitary incident. 1t arose from the
fact that the Spaniards in the suburbs were
not aware that the surrender had occurred
Foreign opinion is loud in praise of the
action of the American commanders in ex-
cluding armed rebels from the city, There
is good reason to believe that their firmness
saved Manila from pillage.
"A week ago there appeared to be a pos
sibility of collision with the rebels, but
there is no danger now. Everything is
quiet"

SOMEBODY TO BE PUNISHED.
President Mckinley VIII Make an Ex-
ample of DereIict Officials.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Aug. H.-There is high
authority for the statement that the Presi-
cent does not intend to rest content until he
has fixed the responsibility for sending
wounded and sick soldiers from Santiago
north in ships not properly equipped with
provisions, medicines or physicians and
nurses He is very much dissatisfied with
the evasions which are being INDUCED in by
officials who should have been able to better
protect the unfortunate soldiers who had
suffered so much for their countrys cause
during the campaign at Santiago. 1t will go
hard with those who are found to be to
blame for the errors. There viii be nothing
left for Congress TO investigate in this mat
ter when the President gets through.
