WORKING FOR M,KINLEY.
Assessor DarneiIle and Superintend.
emit stutler Campaigning.

Assessor Darneille and Superintend-
emit Stutler Campaigning.
The District Building has sent its quota
of Administration men into the wilds of
the various States to do such political
work as may come to hand, and to help
roll up majorities for the g. o. p. in the
coming Presidential election. H. H. OAR
nellie is touring through Maryland and
West Virginia. making speeches and hus-
thing among his friends to help the Nc
Kinley vote in those doubtful Common
wealths. Mr.. Darneille is a Republican
dyed in the wool, and is one of those
partisans who cannot help carrying the
banner of his party aloft in sight of all
who may be looking upon the parade
He is constitutionally a politician. and he
could no more remain at his desk in a
Presidential contest passing Judgment
upon duplicate payments of taxes, than
he could willingly remain in the peni-
Tertiary. 1t will be recalled that Mr..
Darneille sent very harsh criticism of
the political course of Senator yelling
ton OF Maryland to daily paper and
called particular attention to himself as
one OF the ofiiceholding partisans of the
present Administration. Meantime the
business OF the Assessor once is done
by subordinates or goes undone, as the
case may be.
Warner Stutler. Superintendent OF the
Street Cleaning Department, is also spend
ing thirty days leave in West Virginia.
It may be also stated that his brother is
postmaster at West Union, in that State,
nnd that Mr.. Stutler does not fai: to
get his mail regularly. Mr.. Stutler is
known in Washington as most indus
trious worker in his department, and there
was some reason for the plea, made when
he went away. that he was going to West
Virginia 20 rest and recuperate. But it is
not without significance that the genial
Superintendent of the Street Cleaning De-
partment is at home in the month of
October. The Suffers are said to be n
very influential family in West Virginia.
and there would be nothing inconsistent
with rest and recupe.ation in riding
around to country fairs. barbecues, and
political gatherings to meet friends and
to let the family influence be felt
Mr.. Stutler is not a speechmaker but
In private conversation with men he is a
fine talker and an impressive one. and 1t
is said that political work known as the
missionary variety is directly in his line
This it is well known he is doing in West
Virginia.

THE OREGON TO RETURN
Bat.leship Said to Be in Need of
Extensive Repairs.
Work ON the Vessel mt Kure, Japan.
Hastily Done and Temporary in
Characteristic Kentucky to Re-
ieve Her on the Asiatic station
Extent Of the Vessels Injuries.

The battleship Oregon, which was in
jured by striking Pinnacle Rock. OF the
north coast of China, and temporarily
patched up at Kure. Japan. is to lie
brought home for extensive repairs as
soon as the battleship Kentucky reaches
the Asiatic station. The Kentucky is
scheduled to leave Tompk!rsville tornor-
row. In connection with the news that
the Oregon is to return 1t was learned
that the assignment Of the Kentucky to
the East was due to knowledge that the
Oregon's injuries would necessitate
bringing her back very soon. The X n
lucky will reach the Asiatic station in
about two months and the Oregon will
then start by the Pacific Ocean route for
the naval station at Puget Sound. where
her injuries will be repaired.
Reports to the Navy Department show
that the Oregon was patched up In
crude way. Owing to the limited time
given by the Japanese Government for
repairs to be made to the American bat
tleship in the Kure dry dock, 1t was
necessary to get the Oregon into con-
dition with the material at hand. Some
of the holes In the ship were patched
with wood and then covered with Gem; mt.
No attempt was made to repair anything
except the outer bottom. Much injury
was done to the interior OF the vessel
during the experience en- Pinnacle Rock,
stanchions being twisted and bulkheads
strained. The work of putting the ship
in first-class condition will take some
time.
It Is the intention of the naval authori-
ties to make the Puget Sound establish
ment an important repairing station.
Other ships Of the Asiatic feet are to be
sent there whenever they need extensive
overhauling. The Navy Department is
very much dissatisfied with the cAN acter
Of the repair work on United States yes
sells at private dOckyards in the Far East.
and Rear Admiral Melville, Engineer-in-
Chief. has asked for an appropriation of
81, GOO, 600 to construct machinery re-
pairing ship to be sent there.
In preparation for making the repairs to
the Oregon and carrying on, extensive
overhauling work the Navy Department
has ordered Naval Constructor Frank W.
Hibbs from the Mare Island Navy Yard
to the Puget Sound station, where he will
be in charge OF the construction depart
ment. He Will be succeeded at Mare
Island by Naval Constructor Frank B.
Zahn. principal assistant to Chief Naval
Constructor Hichborn.
The extensive works contemplated for
the Sound station will necessitate consid-
cradle improvement in the plant now
there. Rear Admiral Endicott, Chief of
the Bureau OF Yards and Docks. is con-
plans for improving the station
generally. and Rear Admiral Hichborn,
the Chief Constructor of the Navy, will
submit an estimate for the next Naval
bill Of $40, 900 for machinery
and tools.

YouTsEY's TRIAL CLOSING.
The Speeches of the Counsel to Be
Concluded Today.

GEORGETOWN, KY, Oct. 1s.-The
Youtsey trial is nearly over. The testi-
mon? is all in, three Of the speeches
were made today and tonight, and all
will be concluded by tomorrow at noon
Public opinion is divided as to whether
the verdict will be guilty CT hung jury
Youtsey's condit!cn remains unimp-ovei,
and his physicians and relatives are p si-
tive that he is in a most precarious con-
dition and liable to die any hour. AT
irregular intervals he has a severe
paroxysm.
The Commonwealth's rebuttal testimony
today was confined to proving that Jim"
Howard was not liz the hotel Office when
the shot was fired, and to proving that
the noise made by a man running down
the stone steps into the basement Of the
executive building could be heard in the
barber shop in the basement.
On rebuttal of the defence, two wit
nesses said the noise could not be heard
in the barber shop. 1t is possible that
before sentence is pronounced On Yout-
sey. if he is found guilty, jury may be
empaneled to enquire into his sanity, as
may be done under the law.
