SPECULATION CONCERNING U
s. 8. PHILADELPHIA.

1t is Said the Vessel May Be Sent
With Dispatches to the Battle
ship Squadron.
New YORK, Dec. GA Washing
ton special to the Herald says: Con-
siderable speculation ia current in
naval circles as to the purpose of
the Navy Department with respect
to the cruiser Philadelphia, flagship
of the Pacific station. The Phila-
delphia is now at Punta Arenas,
Costa RIGA, where she is awaiting
further orders. 1t is understood in
naval circles that she will drop
down to Panama, but what further
the purpose of the Department is
respecting her cannot be learned.
A suggestion has been made that
Commodore Ksutz, commander in
chief of the Pacific station, has an
important despatch for Capt A. ST
Barker, com manding the battle
ship squadron, which is expected to
arrive at Callao in few days.
Should this be the case it is believed
that the Philadelphia will meet the
battleships at sea, and perhaps ac-
company them to Honolulu. The
suggestion was recently advanced
that the Philadelphia will Ultimate
ly proceed to Manila, but it is now
pointed out that this is clearly i'm
possible in view of the fact that
there are only two ships attached
to the Pacific station, the Philadel-
phia and gunboat Yorktown, which
is nearing completion at Mare Isl.

J. d. Hayne Convicted.

Chief Justice Judd has received a
letter from his son Allen describing
in a very interesting manner the
trial and conviction of Julien D.
Hayne for forgery and fraud. He
was identified in court by among
others Mr.. Judd and William Raw.
Inns of Yale. The latter caused con-
siderable merriment in court by
recognizing him as a lecturer at
Punahou on the topic of Success in
Life.

Street again got into trouble last week,
again ran short Of tLat business en-
courager, ready cash, and again the

Gage, promptly upon demand, just like
former secretaries In spite Of former
sputtering about the practice, issued
his notice that the government would
purchase $4,000, 600 of United States
bonds at the market price These
bonds are due, part Of them in 1905 and
part in 1907 and they were to be pur-
chased at a premium Of II per cent and
49, per cent respectively, which is a
premium Of about II per cent per an
mum, 30 that the saving in interest
will be very little even If the worth of
the money for that time is counted at
nothing. Then there is q probability
that in year or 80 more bonds will
have to be issued to maintain the gov
eminent war expenses besides retain

Little for the first time opens his mouth
TO say that Callahan WAS there and was

Funston has the whole political ma
