II is said that there is little chance for
the passage Of the proposed bill to create
two vice admiralcies, for the benefit OF
Schley ana Sampson. Should the bill
become law. the partisans OF The two Of
fcers would at once begin to quarrel over
which should be named ahead of the 9th
er in the nomination papers TO be sent 10
the senate by the President. Now the
President the congressman and the whole
country with the exception OF the fool
friends Of the two admirals. are all tired
Of The controversy. therefore there Is not
much likelihood Of any legislation which
would start the discussion afresh.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The New York Evening Post Qnd),
speaking of the condition of affairs in
Wall street, says: Ten months ago we
felt it necessary to warn our readers very
urgently against the frenzy of speculation
which had taken possession of the whole
community. We pointed out the absurdity
of the valuation fixed by the Stock En-
change on a class of securities whose
earning value was utterly unknown, and
the supreme folly of buying for higher
prices merely because prices had gone so
high already and when an unlimited sup
ply was pressing on the markets"
The Philadelphia Record Oem) says:
1--WE sell wire and nails to the Germans,
locomotives aud bridges 10 the English
and battleships to the Russians and Ja-
panese. Why should we not build our own
International merchant marine? We have
the cheap material and we know how to
nut Il together II we can make and
sell nails. by the same token we can make
and sell ships"
The Washington Post Qnd) says: 1T
is now settled that New Jersey can or
ganize moro speculative combinations
than Wall street can carry or unload on
the Investing public"
