EX-SENATOR DAWES IDEA.
He Thinks the State Should Buy the 3. &
a. Railroad.

Pittsfeld, July 21.-Ex- Senator Henry
L. Dawes, in an interview upon The
sale of the Boston and Albany railroad
to the New York Central. said:
/ am in favor of the state purchas-
ing the road and l believe it is an on
portunity that should not be allowed
to pass. The states interest in the
road is great, and the Boston ana "
bany Is certainly a valuable property.
Just at this time, when municipal. state
and national ownership of great COR
porations for public service is being
agitated, l am opposed to the state Of
Massachusetts losing whatever interest
she may have in this great property
Il believe that the sale Of the road
should be made campaign issue, and
that the people Of the state should be
aroused to the conditions and results;
of the sale, whereby the commonwealth
practically loses all its interest forever
The stockholders of the Boston and
Albany see an opportunity to get eight
per cent on their investment without
the possibility of a fiuctuation and
nothing to do but sit in their Offices
and receive the interest
Mr. Dawes also expressed the opinion
that the sale of the road to the New
York Central could not be killed in the
stockholders meeting, notwithstanding
the present agitation in that direction.
because the stock is too much scattered
for effective opposition. He thought an
election on the issue of the purchase
by the state would be wise and for the
best interest of the commonwealth.

TEN SHOTS A MINUTE.
Dewey Says His Flve-Inch Guns Fired
That Fast.

Trieste, July A.-At the banquet this
evening, after a toast to President Nc
Kinley had been drunk, Mr.. Harris pro-
posed the health Of Admiral Dewey,
who in reply said simply: II thank you
sincerely and drink to your good
health"
Capt. Fass responded to the toast,
1.-THE American navy" Mr.. Harris then
proposed THE captain and the crew
of the Olympia" and requested Admir-
al Dewey to relate something of the
battle of Manila. The admiral replied;
II only know that, having asked the
steward for something to drink, he
gave me lukewarm weak coffee, which
made me feel quite sick, but my flag
lieutenant kept the record, and 1 in
vite him to speak"
Flag Lieut.. Brumby said: 81 was
midshipman under Admiral Dewey and
he taught me not to talk, so l will only
say, Dewey did it,"
Admiral Dewey rose again and said:
"You ask me about the guns and the
superiority of our firing. We fired ten
shots a minute with our five-inch guns
against three shots a minute. l found
at Manila no more neutral flag that the
Austrian.
At this point Mr.. Harris interpo sod,
saying: Austria is sincerely friendly
to the United States" Admiral Dewey
then addressing himself to the OlyIn
pia's chief engineer, said he had con-
tributed to the success of the ship in
entering the bay of Manila by admi-
rable steaming, bring the speed up -
eight knots. In concluding the ban
quet, Mr. Harris proposed toast TO
Emperor Francis Joseph.

DEWEY APPROVES,
Wires Satisfaction
With Plans For
Reception.
PRESENTATION OF SWORD.
Secretary Long Will Hand
1t to Hero in
Public.)
PRESENTATION OF SWORD.

Washington, July 21.-Admiral Dewey
having cabled approval of the plans
for his reception at the national cap
ital, the committees in charge of that
event are free to proceed at once with
the necessary preparation. Some time
ago the district commissioners ap-
pointed a committee of 100 citizens to
take representative cognizance of the
admiral's return to the national cap
ital, which committee organized and
subsided. The executive committee
scheduled a program which was APP
proved by President Mckinley, Secre-
tary Long and the committee of one
hundred. The program provides for a
suitable committee and commissioner
from New York to Washington.
Probably on the afternoon of his ar
rival the admiral will be conducted to
the east front of the capitol, where
Secretary Long will present the sword
Of honor which was voted by congress.
caEacious platform, suitably decor
ated, will be erected for the aceommo-
dation of the president, his cabinet, the
members of the diplomatic corps and
other distinguished personages. In the
evening there will be a military, naval
and civic parade, In which every or
ganized body in the District of Column
bia is expected to participate.
This feature is to be of the torchlight
variety, and Is to be accompanied by
general illumination, the most elabor-
ate effects being along the line of
march. The parade will be reviewed by
the president, Admiral Dewey and
many of the more prominent national
officials and international representa-
tives. Following the parade will be
band concerts in various sections of
the city. Admiral Dewey has been com
municated with as to the reception
and presentation both by letter and by
cable.
A synopsis of the letter was cabled.
and in reply thereto the following mes
sage was received today through the
secretary of the navy
Proposed arrangements reception
and presentation Washington approved
by president and secretary are entirely
'ssEeeable to me.
(signed) Dewey,
The Pennsylvania. Railroad Company
having rendered special transportation
FACILITIES between Washington and New
York, the citizens executive committee
has accepted the courtesy, and is now
proceeding to arrange all details posi-
BILE at this time.
Designs for an appropriate medal to
be struck in commemoration of the ad-
mirals return to the seat of the ma
tional government are now being con-
sidered. The medal will be of great ar
tistio merit, and is to be made of metal
secured from war material captured by
the navy at Manila
Nothing is known at the navy depart
ment of any intention on the part of
Admiral Dewey to change the plans he
had already framed as to his move
ments in Europe and the date of his
arrival in the United States. Secretary
Long still expects that that date will be
some time in October, but he does not
know that the admiral contemplates
leaving the Olympia, as is reported, and
erturning to the United States on a
mail steamship. This report is discred-
tied at the navy department.

later he said this had passed off. After
breakfast he telephoned to DR.. Smith,
who is at Belle Haven and told him of
his experience during the night. DR..
Smith told him, he said, to continue the
use Of nitro-glycerine and that he
would see him during the day.
Col. Ingersoll spent the morning
swinging in hammock and sitting on
the veranda with the members of the
family. He said he was better and had
no pain. AT 1890 he started upstairs,
telling Mr.. Farrell that when he came
down he would play game of billiards
with him. On reaching the head of
tho stairs, Col. Ingersoll turned into his
wifes room. Mrs. Ingersoll was there.
Together they discussed what they
should have for luncheon, and Col. In
gersoll said he had better not eat any
thing heavy, owing to trouble with his
stomach. He seemed in good spirits
then.
After talking for a few minutes. Col
Ingsrsoll crossed the room and sat
down in a rocking chair. He leaned his
head upon his hand, which rested on
TIE back of the chair Mrs. Ingersoll
asked him how he was feeling, and he
replied:
ooh, better.
These were his last words. A second
after they were uttered he was dead.
The only sign noticed by Mrs Ingersoll
was that the whites of his eyes sud
denly showed. There was not even a
Sign or a groan as death came Doctors
were hastily called, but their verdict
was that death had come when Mrs.
Ingersoll saw the movement of the eye
balls.
No arrangements have yet been made
for the funeral, but it will probably
take place on Monday at the house, and
the interment will be In Sleepy Hollow
cemetery at Tarrytown
Those present in the house at Inc
time Of death were Miss Maud Inger-
s0ll, the colonel's daughter; Mrs. w.
II. Brown, his other daughter Mr..
Brown, Mrs.. d. w. Parker, mother Of
