whether or not champagne will be

The contract was given few weeks

Company happened TO get II was this:
some time ago J. 4. Hughes, foreman
Of the ear shops Of the railroad, built
q couple OF scows for the use OF the
company. When Consul Haywood saw
these he decided that they were just
the thing wanted for coaling United
States ships. AS a result he placed a
contract in the hands OF the railroad
people.
The scows are to be larger than any
thing in the line hitherto built here.
They will be 10 feet long and 80 feet
eide. They will be sheathcd entirely
With copper, and the cost Of each Is
considerable. They will be used for
carrying coal and each will have a
capacity OF over 300 tons.

KITTENS BORN IN MAIL BAG.
POstOffice Cat Had Been Locked Tn
With Registered Letters.
From the New York Times.


Cincinnati, July 4.-Postmaster Reynolds
of Covington Sost his Office cat last night
Suspecting that she had crossed over to
Newport, the postoffice men there We're re-
quested TO make inquiries, with the result
that the cat was located with a family of
five kittens. She had crossed the Licking
river in a curious way.
One of the institutions of the Covington
postohlce is what is called the locked
OUT pouch In IL all of The valuable mail
received after the safe is locked Is placed
for the night. The pouch is of the most
secure pattern manufactured, and it re-
quires a very expert postohlce robber to
be able 10 fitch its contents. The late mails
yesterday brought considerable registered
matter for Newport, which was placed in
the locked out" pouch. Evidently the cat
crept in and made herself nest among
the letters, and was locked. in with the
mail. In the morning the pouch was taken
over TO Newport, as usual, and upon being
opened, not only the mail and the Coving-
ton postoffice cat, but five postoffice kittens
were found.
The cat will probably be sent back, but
the fate of the kittens is uncertain.

CALLS sCHLEY SUPERFICIAL.
omcer of the Brooklyn Thinks Hodg-
son Should Resign.

From the New York Press.
81 told Hodgson this morning that if he
could stand being practically called a liar
by schley there were just two things for
him to do-either resign from the ships
company or ask for board of inquiry"
This is what an officer of the Brooklyn
said TO an acquaintance on Sunday night.
For apparent reasons his name is not used.
He was referring to the controversy be-
tween Schley and Hodgson over the truth
of an interview published In a New York
paper in regard to the famous loop made
by the Brooklyn by Schley's orders
year ago yesterday, when the Spanish
fleet was destroyed off Santiago.
IAN the other officers on the Brooklyn
feel The same way about It," continued
the sailor ITS disgracefGl that the
navy should have got mixed up in such q
row.
who was to blame for It, anyway"
asked his companion.
The newspapers. The thing is Schley
is a newspaper man. You know him three
days and he'll tell you what he is going
to do, and what he thinks of doing, and
then he'll go and do something else. You
can know Sampson three years, and you'll
never know what he is going TO do until
he does it, He's a sphinx. Schiey Is
superficial. Yes Sampson is like Dewey
but he's more like Nelson.
There never should have been any con-
troversy about the Santiago fight. 1t was
SIMPSONS fight-theres no doubt about
that. The whole plan was SIMPSONS,
and all Schley had to do was to follow
orders. 1t made no difference whether
Sampson was on the spot or miles away.
He arranged everything, and his orders
were law. If the Spanish fleet came out
and sailed to the east Schley had orders
to run up one signal; If the fleet sailed
to the south he had orders to hoist an
other signal and so if 1t sailed to
the west. as it did. SIMPSONS orders
were obeyed and it was his fight. and
there was no necessity for all this row.
We hoped that the navy would escape be-
ing drawn into politics"
WAS the Texas in any danger from the
Brooklyn making that loop?'
None whatever When she saw what
we were about to do she. stopped and
backed and then ran up again. If Schley
had not made that loop the Brooklyn
might have been rammed by the Span
iards."
