TO RETIRE CAPT. CLARK.
Health of the Gallant Captain of the
%as- &~-:a'@ Oregon Has Failed. .@~'a.s@se's~sSs

sz,. @>z- Oregon Has Failed. .esss-,. -
Washington, D. c., Aug. 6.-Capt.
Charles e. Clark, commanding the battle
ship Oregon, has been condemned by a
board of medical survey and win be sent
home from Guantanamo,s = Cuba, on the
next vessel that starts north. This an
nouncement was cabled to the navy de-
tpartment by Admiral Sampson, and al
though not wholly unexpected, it was u
great shock to the naval administration.
For some days it had been known that
the strain of overwork incidental to the
memorable voyage of his peerless ship
around Cape Horn and the arduous tour
Of watch duty OF Santiago, eliminating
in the magnificent dash past the other
battleships when Admiral Cervera at
tempted to escape, had seriously affected
Capt. Clark's physical strength and that
he was on the verge Of breaking down.
Only a few weeks ago his responsibilities
were augmented by the selection of the
Oregon as Commodore ,Watsoh's flagship
and orders were issued appointing Capt
Clark chief of staff. The additional du-
ties imposed by this assignment were of
an .exhansting, worrying character, and
they told quickly upon him. @sE@.

Hawaiian Islands to Be Made Base of Supplies For
 Our Fleet.

San Francisco. May 2.-The steamer Zealandia arrived this evening with the following Honolulu advices:
 Honolulu, May 17.-Members of the cabi- net refuse point blank to deny or affirm the rumor that this government has of fered the islands to the American govern ment as a base of operations in the war with Spain The details of bill having this object in view have been received to the senate in secret session. It was drafted by friends of annexation in the United States. It was sent to President Dole by the Hawaiian representative in Washington.
 President Dole has no power to cede the islands without ratification by the Hawaii an legislature.
 This country has not declared neutrality as yet, and will probably not do so. In the meantime the American troops will be allowed directly and openly by the gov ernment all the freedom on this port
 They will be sold all the food supplies and coal they can carry off and will be given all the assistance lying within the power of the people.

MORE TALK ON
 WAR MEASURE
[continued From First Page.l

-~~o---~~~-~-~-- credit will be as good as gold. and at the end of the war we will have conducted 1t on the very cheapest possible basis" In conclusion, he again instanced the direct consequences that would follow the levying of the corporation tax.
 Mir. Platt Against It
 MT. Platt, of Connecticut declared that the corporation tax was unnecessary and he believed it unconstitutional The bill he thought, would raise a sufficient amount without the corporation tax. It was excess of caution that had prompted the chairman of the ways and means committee of the house to underestimate the amount which the bill would raise. MT. Platt thought the bond feature proposed by the minority of the finance committee was eminently fair. 1t was perfectly proper that the burdens of the war should be dis tributed over period of years. The bur- dens were thus made easier to carry. In conclusion MT. Platt said that the bill raised enough revenue without the cor poration tax, that that tax was unjust and unequal in its burdens upon business, that the measure realizes more revenue than the people can afford to pay in on year and that it surely would make the government defendant in series of law suits.
 MT. Lindsay in the course of an extended legal argument upon the corporation tax feature said 1t was impossible for the gov ernment to levy taxes of this kind except on consumption and on industry. No man pretended to insist that corporate property ought not to be taxed if taxation were nec- essary but the question here presented was whether the tax proposed to be levied was fair and equitable. He maintained that 1t was the part of wisdom for congress to enact only such legislation as would be beyond controversy in the courts
 We may become involved with continental powers and the time may come when we cannot go farther on a coin basis, either gold or silver, and when we will be com- pelled to come to the issue of greenbacks. When that time comes whatever necessity demands will don. It will be done withi- out complaint.
 At the conclusion of MT. Lindsay's speech the revenue bill was laid aside. On mo- tion of MT. Allison the senate agreed to meet at Il a. m. tomorrow.
 After the transaction of some routine business the senate then at 4:33 D. m went into executive session after which 1t ad- 1Ourned
