THE WINDwARD's REGISTER.
\ Bill Relating TO Robert f. Penry's
Exploring N,SsrI

The Committee on Commerce OF the Sen
ate, to which was referred the bill to grant
an American register to the foreign built
steamer Windward, has presented a IA
yorable report
ms Is bill enactng that the Secretary
OF the Treasury cause the foreign built
steamer Windward. owned by Civil Engi-
neer Robert E. Peary. L. S n. to be reg
istered as vessel of the United States
provided that she shall not engage IN the
coastWise trade Of this Republic
The Wiudward was presented by Alfred
c. Harmsworth. Of London. England. in
May 1S9S. TO the Arctic explorer. Robert
E Peary. and under his command. it spent
the winter OF lSaS-S9 in Altman Bay. or
the west side OF Smith Sound Released by
the ice in August last. she returned to
BriEus Newfoundland. where she now lies.
and is to be thoroughly rebuilt and re-
engined at the expense Of about $4,000 by
the Peary Arctic Club. which IS contribut-
irg the funds for Mr.. Peary's expedition.
The register is sought that its enter
prising American owner and his American
friends and hackers may have the pa
triotic reward of carrying the Stars and
Stripes in an American ship to the pole.
If the Windward is fortunate enough to re-
turn from her perilous voyage in the in
terest of science, she would doubtless b
sold abroad as she is wholly untitled for
any purpose in which American ships are
engaged

HISTORIC ISLAND FOR SALE.

the Government.

NEW YORK. March 11.-Constitution

posite West Point, the scene OF some Of
the most stirring episodes in the Reyolu-
tion, and later the home OF one OF Amer
lea most celebrated writers and phil
anthropists. will il is said. soon become
the property Of the Government. TO be
used for military purposes.
Senator Depew has introduced a bill in
Congress authorizing The Secretary Of War
to expend $50 coo for the purchase Of the
island. The bill has influential support.
and it is believed will become a law dur
ing the present session. II the island is
purchased a huge storage magazine will
be erected there.
The introduction OF this bill recalls the
interesting history Of this property. It
derives its name from fort which was
erected on it during the Revolution uu-
der the supervision Of General Kosciusko.
Its crumbling remains are still visible.
When the British eudeayored to sail up
The Hudson to the relief Of Burgoyne
the massive iron chain which was stretch
ed across the Hudson near the fort pre-
vented the passing Of the fleet.
Just beyond the fort on wooded bluff
stands an unique old wooden structure.
During the revolution and while ih- AmCr!-
can forces were campaigning in the North.
Washington occupied this house iar some
time.
Years ago the size became the property
OF weli-kn0Wu American named Warner

and build home, but he met with lusi-
ness reyerscs. The island after his death

MORE CARS

Owing to the general increase in bust
ness throughout the state during the
last year the Great Northern has found
1T necessary to place an order for 500
new freight cars, to be put In operation
between Butte and Great Falls. All the
cars are of special design on lines laid
down by the constructing engineers of
the company: -
s, Their carrying capacity is 100, 900
pounds, with coal as a basis; it's greater
specific gravity will permit the loading
of perhaps $50, 600 pounds of ore on each
car. The body of these cars will be of
wood, standing high above the trucks,
and each will be fitted with numerous
special designs for dumping ore and GOA.
p. About half the number ordered We're
recently received and are now in opera
ton, carrying ore to Great Falls n coal
from Belt and Sane Conlee back to
Butte.
It was the intention of the company to
order steel cars for this service, and, as
a matter of fact, an order was placed for
steel cars, and afterward changed on ac-
count of he inability of the manufacture
ers to have 500 steel cars ready for serv-
ice in less than 18 months. Steel is very
scarce and very high priced at this time.
Two thousand tons of ore are being
~freighted to Great Falls daily, an equal
tonnage of coal being consigned SOUTH.
With the approach of winter the con-
sumption of coal will increase. ~

was chopping ice. directly opposite where
the man fell. Nobody else was in sight.
