Finally Passes the House, After

Retain Their COlOrs.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-The naval
house this afternoon after four days
of acrimonious debate. nest Of which
was spent upon the question of reha-
bilitating the naval academy at Annap-
oils in accordance with the scheme In
augurated by the appropriation of half
million in the last naval bin, and the
proposition to increase the maximum
price to be paid for armor plate to S545
per ton, existing law limiting it to
$4oO
Upon both propositions the naval
committee suffered signal defeats. The
amendment to build a great armor
plant was ruled out upon a point Of
order, but after a raneorous debate, in
which the price to be paid for armor
was cut down from $545, the price
which the committee insisted was be-
ing paid for the new Krupp ar1nor. to
$445, and a proviso was also added pre-
Guiding the government from paying
more than was paid by any other for
eign government for similar ar1nor.
When the bill was reported to the
house Mr. Boutelle attempted to Sc
cure a reversal of the verdicts Of the
committee of the whole on the naval
academy and armor plate amendments.
but in both cases he was defeated, a
motion to recommit the bill made by
hm being voted down, 70 to 1856.
Another victory over the committee
was secured by the adoption of a pro-
vision to the naval bill creating the
rank Of admiral of the nay This was
accomplished by Mr.. Moody 1lMass.) },
who offered copy Of the senate bill
creating this rank as an amendment
to the naval bill. The amendment was
clearly subject to the point of order
against 1T raised by Mr.. Boutelle, but
the sentiment of the house was so ap-
parently unanimous in favor of the
amendment that he withdrew the point
of order and 1t was adopted without
dissenting vote amid the cheers of
the members.
GREETING THE RESULT.
The naval committee lad amended
the senate bill so as to SO create the
rank of vice admiral, bu, Mr.. Moody's
amendment was the original senate bill
without the latter provision.
Separate votes were demanded by
Mr.. Boutelle upon the naval academy
and armor plate amendments, both Of
which were carried, the former SO to 70.
the latter 1870 to So.
Mr.. Boutelle then moved to recommit
the bill, with instructions to restore
the price of armor Plate to $545 per
ten. as originally recommended by the
committee. The motion was voted
down, 79 to 155. The bill was then
passed. -
Mr.. Hull, chairman of the military
committee, gave notice that he would
call up the army appropriation bill to-
morrow.
The senate amendments to the mill
tary academy bill were adopted. This
bill now goes to the president.

BOMBAY, Feb. 23 - Important de-
tails regarding the action of the Brit
ish authorities at Muscat, the capital
of the sultanate of Oman, have just
become public
1t appears that the news of the lease
by the sultan Of Oman of a coaling
station to France on the coast Of Oman
leaked out while the British political
agent at Muscat, Maj. Eagan, was
absent. He promptly returned to his
post but the sultan refused to fur
nish him with any information. The
commander Of the gunboat Sphinx
thereupon dispatched a lieutenant and
armed party to Bandar-Jiosih. But
the sultan, hoping to receive aid from
the French, continued to be recalci-
tant
The arrival of the second-class cruis-
er Eclipse, flagship of the East Indian
station, with Rear Admiral E. G.
Drummond on board, threw the sui
tan's subjects into panic, though
| the sultan himself still remained OBJ
| durate. During the morning of Feb.
| 16 Admiral Drummond sent word
ashore that, unless the sultan attend
| GU d SO1ilClSll OIl OOoio AiiC ISAip'S
at 2 o'clock that afternoon, he would
lombard the forts at 2:20 p. m.
Notice of the admirals intention was
sent to the foreign consuls, and the
town was speedily in confusion. The
| advisers Of the sultan entreated him
| to submit and the Eclipse took up a
position broadside to the town, while
the other British ships cleared for ac-
ton. The sultan thereupon posted a
notification at the custom house ano
on the gates of the town that the
agreement with the French was can
celed.
At noon the sultn sent his brother
| on board the Eclipse, but the British
admiral refused to receive him as q
substitute.
Just about 2 o'clock the sultan OF
Oman, almost unattended, arrived on
board the flagship and remained there
for three hours, while the whole popu-
lation lined the beach and anxiously
awaited the outcome.
| The sultan, it appears, completely
acquiesced to the British demands, and
| handed over to Admiral Drummond
! the treaty with France.
On the following day the admiral
went to the palace, and the sultan
publicly repudiated his agreement with
France.

1t is generally believed that this will

SCHLEY AT SANTIAGO.
At the same time, Admiral Schley,
another officially detasteful hero of the
Spanish war, shows grander outlines
in the clear light of truth. The one
strong point which Secretary Long
made in his brief against him was
that he had delayed at Cienfuegos.
Santiago. 1t now appears that Schley
acted strictly in accordance with or
ders, having received a dispatch from
enemy We're known to be at Santiago,
to hold his fleet off Cienfuegos."
This dispatch" Admiral Schley rather
naively explains in his communication
to the senate, lis not printed either in
the appendix or executive documents.
OF course not, neither is there any de-
tailed description of the quaker guns
before which Sampson gallantly ma
neuvered at long range.
The staff OF both the army and the
navy should keep Lent by devotion

HAWAIIAN MUDDLE.
Our citizens in Hawaii are likely to
have an. object lesson for several
months on the advantages of annexa
ton; for it does not now seem possible
that the bill providing a territorial
government will be enacted Outside
of the anomaly which will continue, of
an integral part of the United States
being subject to the laws of a defunct
sovereignty, new questions of impor-
tance are continually arising, for the
settlement of which there is absolutely
no tribunal, whether pagan, missionary
of Japanese.
For instance, even if the alien con-
tract laws Of the United States be ex-
tended over Hawaii, there are no pro-
visions either for their execution or
for the prosecution Of their violation.
Besides, there is no competent court to
decide matters of immigration and
maritime affairs; and thus, even if
Senator Nelson's bill extending the
United States shipping laws to Hawaii
should be enacted, there is no way in
which they can be carried into effect
The fact is Hawaii is forgotten; those
who exhausted the scope of mispro-
nunciation, a year ago, in her praise,
are now wrestling with the vernacular
of the Ftilipinos. Such is the essence
of the colonizing idea of the Anglo
Saxon: Get what doesn't belong to you,
and then strive to get something else.

| MANILA, Feb. 23.-At daylight tbis

pose OF withdrawing attention from af

In the meantime small bodies of reb

last night in the cowardly attack at

the outposts. Every available man was
sent to drive them away. with the re-
suit that there was desultory firing all

From the high towers of the citv fires

Immense damage has been done by

The fire department experienced great
difficulty in fighting the flames, owing
to defective apparatus. 1t Is reported
that the natives have damaged the
