The STEAMER GlAUDiNE
is TWICE LIBElLEO

The steamer CIaudine is up against
two bills for attachment, which Were
filed yesterday in the United States
district court j. S. Low, representing
Geo. U. Hind of Hind, Rolph & Com
pany filed libel against the steamer
for the recovery of the value of the
cargo Of the American bark William
Carson, which was wrecked by col
lision with the steamer last spring.
The value of the cargo is placed a.
$1,000.
Captain John Piltz also has a claim
against the Claudine for the value of
his private effects lost at the time OF
the wreck. He has placed the amount
of his personal damages at s2,474.50.
The Claudine is at present not in port,
but is expected to arrive about Sunday.
The vessel will undoubtedly be 1t
tached upon her arrival unless the
Wilder Steamship Company furnishes
bonds pending the result of the suit
The case will probably come up some
time in the October term of court.

CAPTAIN FRY's EXPERIENCE.

Captain Fry OF the Aloha mad quite
an experience with the birds of Lay
san island while he was there lately.
Ii was their Matching time and they
are very thick on the place. One day
he went TO take a walk and was at
tackled by the birds and had TO look for
stick to protect himself with. The
cook, who was on a hunt for eggs, had
the same experience and was quite SER
iously punctured by the sharp beak
of one of the feathered denizens o.
the place.
The cook gathered a dozen eggs the
day before the vessel left and put them
in the galley. The next morning when
the ship was good ways out at sea,
on entering the galley he was surprised
to find several little goonies and bosun
bill birds, who had made their way
out Of their shells and were sQuawking
for something to eat. An attempt
was made to feed the little things, but
it was not sucucessful and they all
died.
Captain Fry says that some Of the
spars of the wrecked McNear and part
of the deck house have reached the
windward side of Laysan island and
are on the beach.

SAILORS FOR THE NAVY.

The recent recruiting trips Of some
vessels OF our navy seem to have been
successful. Along the coast of Maine
and Of New England generally the ves-
-sels OF the North Atlantic squadron
have served as recruiting Offices and
have enlisted number of young men.
OF course, recruits are not turned away,
even when they appear on a flagship;
but. as rule, vessels of squadron in
home waters do not declare themselves
specifically to be recruiting stations.
On their recent trip, however. they
did just that
Under orders from the navy depart
ment. the commanding officers Of the
vessels Of the North Atlantic squadron
were directed to recruit all good and
qualified men who might offer to en-
list. These men were not to be sent
to the receiving ships or the training
stations at once, but were to be put
into the crew of the ships they might
enlist on and kept there. treated as
other men Of the crew. until the fleet
should reach Newport or any other
port where there is a training or a re-
ceiving ship. 1t was thought that this
would make the recruit learn what the
life was, lnstill in him some naval hab-
its and make him understand that
even landsman has place on q naval
vessel more quickly than term at a
receiving ship or at a training station.
He viii be trained at one or the other
of those places yet, but he viii 60
there with an idea Of naval life that
he would not have acquired II he had
never been on q vessel before.

HOW SHARKS MULTIPLY.

Sharks are peculiarly prolific. Were
it not for the want of something to eat
and the liability to be eaten, the sea
in certain ATTITUDES would soon swarm
with these unwelcome visitors. In
June, 1872, the ship Ardgowan, Captain
Alexander Kerr, caught shark which
contained no fewer than eighty-three
vigorous young ones. Each of these
measured about fifteen inches in
length. In 1871 the ship ST Lawrence,
Captain c. johnson, caught two blue
sharks in the South Indian ocean One
contained sixty-five young, the other
only thirty. Not one was less than
thirteen inches in length.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-While
members of the Women's Christian
Temperance Union in Indiana are pray
ing for the defeat Of President McKin-
ley because he has not abolished the
canteen in the army, many officers in
the navy are disposed to criticise the
administration for having abolished the
canteen In the navy yards and pro-
hibited the sale Of beer on board navN
vesselA
1t Is said that since the canteens in
navy yards and marine barracks have
been abolished there has been a great
increase in the patronage OF saloons in
the neighb0rhood-
The stOppage OF the sale of beer 20
men on board ship is said to have led
to = great increase in the drunkenness
OF men on shore and 10 increase o.
smuggling Of liquor on board ships.
