Naval Men Tn In Arms,

Washington, Jan. 30.-The introduce
ton OF an amendment to the naval per-
sonnet bill in the senate committee on
naval affairs permitting the direct ap-
pointment in the navy Of civilians has
united all branches Of the service in
opposition, and it is asserted at the
navy department that If the amendment
is persisted in the whole bill will be
lost The main argument is that the
appointment Of a number of civilians
now would create just such hump
as resulted from the appointments
made during the civil war; which caus-
ed the stagnation from which the serv-
ice is still suffering.

correspondent In Manila Says Dewey
and Otis Are Unfriendly.
Barcelona. Jan. 30.-The Manila cor
respondent of the Diario says he has
discovered that the relations between
Major General Otis and Rear Admiral
Dewey are most strained, owing to the
profound rivalry which exists between
the land and sea forces of the United
States in the islands.
THE administrative morality of the
Americans" says the correspondent, "is
below par. The gambling hells of Ma
Mia are taxed $1,000 each. and the police
are highwaymen who make arbitrary
arrests and then demand from SO to $40
for the release of their prisoners"
The correspondent further declares
that the Americans have monopolized
all the trade and swamped the markets
with their products, rendering Euro
pean competition impossible. AS an in
stance of this he alleges that California
wines are sold In Manila as genuine
Bordeaux.

Big BREWERY TRUST,
Flans For a s5O,OOO,OOO Combination
About Completed.
GREAT SECRECY OBSERVED,
Project Under Way to Consolidate
All Brewery Interests In Greater
New YOrk-Plan Acknowledged
by Some Interested In II,

New York, Jan. 3o.-After hard and
secret work for almost year the brew
ers of New York city. It is said, practi-
cally have their monster combine ton
or trust completed. 1t was learned that
the promoters Of the scheme were re-
ceiving subscriptions to the underwrit-
ing syndicate.
The capitalization Of the combine, it
Is said. will be 100000 900. OF this
amount 100000 is to be in 100 year 6
per cent first mortgage gold bonds, $751;
100000 In preferred stock and S., 900 900
IN common stock. The Colonial Trust
company Is mentioned as likely to
finance the huge combination.
Scheme Fell Through.
Several years ago a similar combina-
ton was planned, but the scheme fell
through on account of the inability Of
the promoters to bring some of the more
powerful breweries into accordance with
each other on the details of the plan.
That difficulty now seems to have been
overcome.
One Of the reasons for this is conceded
to be the war revenue tax on beer of 81
barrel, making the total tax 81 a bar
rel. The brewers protested vigorously
against this tax, saying that it would
cut their profits to nothing. A commit
tee was sent to Washington to ask re-
lief, but the plea was of no avail
The efforts of the brewers, too, to sad
die the extra dollar on the retailer fall
ed, so far as contracts were concerned.
In the supreme court of this state not
long ago decision was handed down
that where brewer has contract with
retailer to furnish beer at so much a
barrel the added price Of the war reve-
nue. tax cannot legally be added to the
cost.
He Acknowledges 1t.
Samuel Untermyer Of Guggenheimer,
Untermyer & Marshall Of 80 Broad
street, who represent many Of the big
brewers IN this city, said that the
scheme was under way, but that the
figures representing the capitalization
of the combined companies were incor-
rect.
You can say" said Mr.. Untermyer,
that project is contemplated to COM
bine the greater part of the brewing
interests in Greater New York. Nearly
all the breweries have been approached
by the persons who are at work upon
the plan.
1T is far too early to give out the
amount of capital involved. Nobody
would be able to guess the probable fig
ures. 1t would be idle specula ton.
THE matter is still in the initial
stage. and not much progress has been
made in the negotiations. 1t would be
premature to give the names of those
who are organizing the combination or
the names Of any of the firms who have
their intention of joining it,"

A Horrible Suspicion.

New York, April Sit is now be-
lieved that the fire in the Andrews man
sion yesterday. which cost II lives, was
of iDcendiary origin. The motive, there
is every reason to believe, was desire
for revenge, growing out of a petty
quarrel in tine servants quarters. In
Novembe Der last a servant who had
trouble with Mary Flanagan and other
servants left her place in the household.
Early in January Mr.. Andrews re-
ceived an anonymous letter advising
him TO discharge Mary Flanagan.
This letter and those subsequently re-
ceived were in n mans handwriting.
During February and March threaten
ing letters continued to come, some OF
which limited at burning the house.
Mr.. Andrews finally turned the letters
over to the police and an investigation
resulted in finding the suspected
writer in one of the poorest quarters in
the city, place in striking contrast to
her former palatial surroundings. She
denied all knowledge of the anony-
nous letters, proved that she could not
read or write, and was, therefore, not
molested. The case was still under in
vestigation when the Andrews fire oc-
Cured. Mary Flanagan is among the
dead.
