Another Satisfactory Preliminary
Trial of the New Submarine
Torpedo Boat.

New York. March 12.-The submarine boat
Holland was given another preliminary
trial last evening. She moved out a short
distance from the pier at Perth Amboy and,
with John P. Holland, the inventor, the
engineer and another man disappeared be-
meath the water. She remained down a
depth of about fourteen feet for nearly half
an hour. and then reappeared at the sur
face. The object of the test was to de-
termine the amount of metal ballast nee
essary for her operation under water. as
well as to test her diving tanks and COM
pressed air apparatus.
After the Holland came to the surface the
inventor said that the boat worked satis-
factorily. and that he was ready to give her
an open trial in deep water. 1t has been
decided to exhibit her in the lower bay next
week. The president of the Holland Sub
marine Company, Captain Jacques Captain
s. A. Morris. Superintendent Thompson. of

partments.

Washington, March 1.-The war depart
ment to-day promulgated its orders Great
ing the departments Of the Gulf and of the
Lakes and abolishing the department of the
Missouri and of Texas. The department Of
the East will embrace the states on the
Atlantic coast to and including North
Carolina; the department of the Lakes will
include Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, In

ment of the Gulf will comprise the states
of South Carolina. Georgia. Florida, Ala
bama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas.
with headquarters at Atlanta. General
Brooke will command the department Of
the Lakes and Brigadier General Graham
the department of the Gulf.
The war department Is making efforts to
execute the changes in the great military
departments announced in the order to
which reference was made yesterday. The
important change by the order was the
creation of new department of the Gulf
by the combination of the old depart
ment of Texas with the southern portion
of the department Of the East. The
other changes made were in the di-
rection Of rectifying the lines of the
Central Western departments so as

respective central headquarters. For this
reason the state Of Ohio, for many years
attached to the department Of the East,
has been thrown into the department of
the Missouri, which now rejoces in the
new name of department of the Lakes. The
change Of names is for purely sentimental
reasons.
The Western states included in the de-
partment of the Dakota have been trans
ferred to the department Of the Platte,
while to maintain the present proportions
Of this department, the northern sections
has been thrown into the department of
Dakota No changes have been made in
the department of the Columbia. the de-
partment of California or the department
of Colorado. General Graham telegraphed
the war department to-day he would go
to Atlanta on Monday next to establish his
headquarters there.
Heretofore there had been only one mil
itary center along tho Atlantic, namely,
that at New York, but the present condi-
tion Of affairs made 1t apparent from mil
itary standpoint that 1t was desirable to
have another military center. There
fore what had been heretofore known
as the department of Texas had

Hartford City. Ind. March 12-Dr. Mel
son d. Clouser, aged 90 years. filed suit In
the Blackford circuit court to-day asking
divorce from his 16-year-old wife.
The doctor alleges In his complaint that
his wife was exceedingly cruel to him and
squandered his fortune against his consent.
He says she abandoned him when he was
confined to bed and took advantage OF his
helplessness by carrying away household
goods to the value of $500.
The proceedings were something of a sur.
prise. as it was the general impression that
ing the fact that Mrs. Clouser has nor lived
with her husband since February 2S
DR.. Clouser Is now confined to his bed
with sickness 1t is not believed he will
live to see the termination of the case. All
possible effort will be made to have it tried

sent to your excellency the credential let
ters which accredit me in the capacity of
envoy extraordinary and minister plenipo-
tentiary to his majesty, the king of Spain,
in the United States.
1.-THE principal object Of my honorable
mission is to endeavor, so far as possible
to maintain and draw closer between our
two countries the most friendly relations
In order to attain this end, much in har-
mony with my own personal feelings, am
ready to omit no favor whatsoever on my
part, and doubt not l shall succeed and
hope 1 shall be fortunate in getting the
benevolence of your exce!lency and your

warning. If they try to retain Cuba by
force. the failure is certain. and they will

On the other hand the Spectator. al
though contending that'preparation is gen.

and will not grant independence and thus
comply with the American demands"
Therefore, the Spectator Is of the optn.

reluctantly conclude that Spain must

and assume her debt. They. think it
cheaper to buy than to acquire by war. but
they all recognize the improbability of the
Spanish government daring to consent.

uneasy at the danger that large amount
