AFRAID OF CONGRESS-.
Movement to Put Sampson Ahead of
SchIeY HANGS Fire.

New York Dec. IA Herald special
from Washington says:
It is expected the president will soon
send to congress a special message
regarding rewards for officers and men
from the Atlantic fleet who dis
tinguiShed themselves during the war
with Spain and whose gallantry has not
yet been recognized.
President Mckinley has the Sampson
Schley matter under serious cOnsidera-
ton. He is understood to be willing
that bill should be passed authorizing
the revival of the grade of vice admiral
for the benefit of Rear Admiral Samp-
son and Schley, the former to be given
seniority over the latter. 1t is believed
Secretary Long will join in endorsing
this solution of the controversy. What
will probably cause considerable critic
ism among the friends of Rear Admiral
Schley is the determination of Secre-
tary Long to name Admiral Sampson
in the measure he is preparing, giving
the thanks of congress to the COM
mander-in-chief of the North Atlantic
squadron and the officers and men I'M
der his command.
It is not believed here, however, that
the president will transmit such a res
olutiOn to congress. knowing what de-
termined opposition it will meet and
the prObab iHty that friends of Schley
would have his name substituted for
that of Sampson and pass the resolu-
ton in that form.

AID FOR LEAVENWORTH.
Money Included In Urgency Defcien-
cy Bill for Penitentiary.

Washington, Dec. 12.-Secretary Gage
today transmitted to congress a com
munication from the attorney general
submitting estimates of apprOpria tions
for inclusion in the urgent deficiency
bill as follows:
Support United States penitentiary,
Ieavenworth. $4,000: penitentiary at
I4eaveuworth, building, $500, 600 The
building improvements are for erecting
portions of the proposed federal peni-
Tertiary. consisting of two interior
wings or cell houses. the main corridor
and apartments connecting Herewith,
running back from the interior cell
houses and including the school room;
the laundry building, One-half the boil
ct house and the hospital hGilding, the
sum to be expended Immediately under
the directiOA of the attorney general.
The speedy completion of the building
is urged for the reasons that 60 per cent
working time OF prisoners employed at
the quarry and on new site is lost in
marching two and One-half miles be
tween this place and their present quar-
1ers. and because danger of escape and
acts of violence in order to effect es-
cape while on march is very great and
necessiJates employment Of a large
number of guards to secure safety of
prisoners while marching. Delay con-
tinues the report. Will put back the
work nearly if not quite one year
