TORPEDO STRANOsDON BEACH
supposed to he One of the Mines
Planted In Hnrbor Mt the OUT
break of the War.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2s.-The following
telegram has been received at the Navy
department from Observer Gray Of the
Weather bureau at Norfolk:
Torpedo ashore at high water mark two
and half miles north OF Coyners Hill Life
saving station. In good condition, weighing
about 400 pounds. No letters or figures can
be found.
The Navy department Immediately sent
the telegram over to the chief OF engineers
at the War department. The fact that the
weight Of the torpedo was about 100 pounds
less than the smallest used in the navy and
that naval torpedoes have letters and figures
all over them convinced the naval officers
that the torpedo which was stranded is enc
of the mines planted by the War depart
ment at the entrances OF harbors at the
outbreak OF the Spanish war. The life
saving keeper at Coyner's Hill was warned
to let the mine alone until the War de-
partment claims 1t.

FEELING AGAINST SAMPSON
senate Considers Credit Due to Adj
mirnlS ut Snntingo-schlcy Is
the Fnvoritc.

WASHINGTON, Feb 2s.-Another unsuc-
cessful effort was made In the executive
session of the senate TO confirm the nomina-
tions advancing Admirals Samps and
Schley and other officers who participated
In the Santiago campaign. This result was
due to the objections OF Senators Butler,
Pettigrew and Stewart, who talked through
the executive session, thus preventing the
taking CT vote.
Senator Butler made the principal speech
of the session. He based his objection to
the Advancement Of Admiral Sampson upon
the revelations of the published record of
the two officers, referring with especial em
phasls to the fact that Admiral Sampson
had himself been resp nsible for Admit al
Schley's remaining at Cienluegos. Mr.. But
Ter charged that the dispatch making this
order had been suppressed and he asserted
that 1t must have been concealed in Ad.
miral Sampsc ms behalf At any rate the
conduct Of Sampson in giving the order
and then holding Schley responsible for the
delay was conduct unworthy OF any man
and unbecoming an officer and Mr.. Butler
said he could never give his assent to the
confirmation Of the nomination of any man
guilty of such treatment of a subordinate.
/ The presentation of this point led TO
controversy as to whether Sampson had
ever issued the order. Senator Foraker ap-
peared especially anxious to secure con-
firmatcn or denial of this accusation, in
dicatng his opposition IL it was based upon
correct information. He wanted TO know
why, If such an order had been issued, 1t
had not been included in the record of the
two officers sent to the senate by the sec
retary of the navy.
To this friends of Admiral Sampson re-
piled that it was to be presumed that it
would have been II such an order had ever
been issued. Especially must this be true
! in view OF the fact that Admiral S,hleys
flag officer, Lieutenant Sears, had been
member of the board which had compiled
the information supplied to the senate. II
was not to be presumed, they said that
any information in the interest of his chief
would have been suppressed by Mr.. Sears.
| Senator Pettigrew quoted the closing para
| graph OF Admiral Schley's statement and
| said: mo one get around that logic.
This matter is of record If the other is not
and enough is known to show the unfair
ness of Sampson without regard to the other
matter at ALL"
Senator German made an appeal for ac
tion and in this was Joined by Senator
Wellington. Both spoke as the friend OF
Admiral Schley. Mr.. German said that he
agreed with those who claimed that there
had been unfair discrimination against Ad
miral Schley, but he said that he wanted
him confirmed and he saw no means Of
doing this without also advancing Samp-
son.
Let us confirm Schley and leave Samp-
son unacted upon," suggested Senator Petit
grew.
THAT cannot be DONE responded Mr..
Hale.
| at can be done II we want to do it, re-
, sponded Mr.. Pettigrew
! But the suggestion was not accepted and
the executive session closed without ac
| tion.

ENLISTING NATIVES IN ARMY
General Wheeler Offers n Suggestion
Concerning the New Reorgan-
ization Bill.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-Major General
Wheeler has offered the War department a
suggestion locking to the utilization OF the
troops to be added to the army under the
terms OF the pe-ding reorganization bill in
the regular es $.ishment, instead Of In the
volunteer branch. The compromise measure
permits the president to recruit such por-
tion of the $4,000 volunteers to be added to
the regular army in time Of emergency from
the natives OF the islands OF Cuba, Porto
Rico and the Philippines, az he may elect
General Wheeler argues that these men can
be brought to much higher state OF EN-
ciency and be made of greater value to the
military establishment II incorporated In
the regular army than II in the volunteer
branch
The status of General Wheeler himself Is
said to be such that he must take some ac-
tion toward choosing again between the
army and congress within a few days. 1t
is believed at the War department that II he
retains his army commission until after noon
on the 4th of March, next Saturday, he with
forfeit his seat in the house OF representa-.
tvcs for the ensuing two years under the
ruling of the judiciary committee to the ef
feet that by holding such commission an

Several Important Items for Neces-
snry ENpenditures Are Added.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-The general de-
iciency appropriation bill was reported to
the house today. 1t carries S21, ,0S9, 1854. Two
Of the most important items were inserted
this afternoon. One provides 81, 500, 900 as
an increase to the appropriation for army
transportation and is specifically designed to
pay the cost Of transporting back to Spain
the Spanish prisoners held in the Philip
pines by the insurgents, and the other ap-
propriates s1,3l0,0O0 to satisfy the balance
due on judgment Of the court OF claims
! in favor of the Southern Pacific railroad,
which has been held up pending an adjust
ment between the government and the Cen
| trail Pacific.
! Only two pieces of new legislation OF i'm
portance are inserted in the bill One is
attached to the appropriation for the South
ern Pacific. 1t authorizes the secretary Of
! the treasury to dispose OF all securities
of the Central Pacific acquired in the gov
ernment's settlement at not less than par,
with accrued interest. The other continues
in force all temporary appointments in the
bill growing out cf the war without civil
service examination.

Desire to Avoid the yiolcut storms
in the InLinn Occnn.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S.-Althoush the
cabinet was in session today an hour longer
than usual 1t was said that nothing of spe
cial interest was developed. The question
Of whether the troops now being made ready
for Manila should be transported from San
Francisco or from the east, by way OF the
Suez canal and the Ded sea, was discussed
and the decision was reached to ship them
from San Francisco. Although the expense
would pc somewhat greater than by the Suez
canal, abcut twelve days would be saved,
and then the danger Of encountering the si-
moons whei~l prevail at this season on the
Indian ocean would be a,erted. Nothing
has been received today from General Otis
or Admiral Dewey, and just what the ad-
mirel in his recent dispatch meant by the
words "for political reasons" is not known.
as the admiral himself has given no explana-
tiUn and nothing has since developed that
throws any light on the question.

TWO CHICAGO SENATORS
Tell a Straight Story About Catarrh and
Pe.ru.na.

Chronic catarrh often makes its approach
In disguise. Before a person knows 1t he
may become a victim OF chronic catarrh.
Its onset may be gradual, its development
insidious, and at last the victim finds him
self In the clutches OF tenacious disease.
A slight cold, a tendency to sneeze, a puff
ness in the nose and head, fullness or crack
ling in the ears, stringy mucus in the throat,
slight cough or wheeziness, snoring during
sleep-any one of these symptoms should
be regarded as warning.
What can be cured in the beginning in
week or two, by using Pe-ru-na, II allowed
to become chronic, may require months OF
faithful treatment. You had better take
Pe-ru-na now, for by and by you may be
obliged to take it long time in order to
get we'll. Pe-ru-na is the remedy for
tarrh; almost everybody knows that by
hearsay, and thousands know it by blessed
experience.
Two senators from the great metropolis
Chicago, have something to say in regard
to Pe-ru-na:
