DREDGING MATTAwoMAN smoAL.
Col. Allen Reports the Work PrOgress-
ing Satisfactorily

Col Allen. the engineer officer in charge of
the Potomac river Improvement, reports to
the War Department that notwithstand-
ing unavoidable delays. mainly due to slight
repairs to the dredging plant and the firing
at the naval proving grounds at Indian
Head. the work of dredging the Potomac
river at Mattawoman shOal is progressing
very satisfactorily. During the month of
June 1G.sSS cubic yards We're dredged, an
amount considerably in excess of the mini
mum requirements. 1t is said that Mr..
Rittenhouse Moore. the contractor for this
work, is going TO file heavy claim for
damages against the Navy Department on
account of alleged interference with the
prosecution of dredging operations in the
Potomac under his contract with the War
Department. Mattawoman shoal is in d.
rect line with the fire Of the big naval guns
tested at the Indian Head proving grounds,
and whenever these tests made 1t is
necessary to suspend dredging operations.
There is some conflict of authority between
the War and Navy Departments in this
matter, and Contractor Moore says that
he has been unable to make satisfactory
arrangements with the naval authorities at
Indian Head for the proper performance
of his contract

B. and o. Offcials Get Clue to Disaster
at Folsom.

PHILADELPHIA, July l2.-The arrest Of
an Italian boy last night by the police
of Chester, Pa, has given hope to the
officials of The Baltimore and Ohio railroad
that the miscreants who planned TO wreck
the Chicago, Washington. Philadelphia and
New York express at Folsom yesterday and
were partially successful will soon be in
custody.
Pending further developments neither the
police nor the railroad officials will discuss
the arrest of the boy. 1t was learned
however. that following the arrest there
was a conference between the police and
ar official OF the road, that lasted until
after midnight. The boy was present, and
at the conclusion of the conference he ac-
ccmpanied several policemen in Il carriage
fo.. the purpose.it is believed, of leading them

switch that threw the train from the track
The guilty ones are believed to be a gang

of Mexico.

The collector of customs and the imml-
grant inspector at Eagle Pass, Tex, have
telegraphed the Treasury Department that
they have information that loo Italians
are making their way through Texas in an
endeavor to cross into this country. Forty
three Italians have so far been caught and

officials at Eagle Pass want authority to
employ ten additional mounted men for
duty on the Rio Grande above and below
Eagle Pass to intercept the Italians.
1t is stated at the immigration bureau
that the rigid enforcement of immigratio
laws at the ports of this country has re-
suited in much immigration to Canada and
Mexico with the object Of entry into this

ADMIRAL SCHLEES FLEET.
The Montgomery to BE Sent Home
The Atlanta MAY Renlace H..

e Aiinhtd nay Replace Her.
On the recommendation Of Rear Admiral
Schiey. commanding the south Atlantic
squadron, he has been authorized to send
the cruiser Montgomery Of his small fleet
to the United States Immediately for an
extensive overhaulng. The MONTGOMERY
has been on active service for seven years
and her machinery is badly out of repair.
1t is said she also needs new decks and
other work to put her in first-class condi-
uon. Under the orders just issued the
cruiser Will be sent to the New York navy
Fard ana be put out of commission. 1t is
said that she requires at least six months
work
Her detachment from the south Atlantic
station will reduce Admiral Schley's fleet
TO two vessels, the flagship Chicago and
the gunboat Wilmington. 1t is probable
that the place of the Montgomery will be
supplied by the cruiser Atlanta, which has
just undergone an extensive overhauling
at the New York navy yard. She is avail
able for immediate service. 1t is avail
stood that Admiral Schley has asked for
her and that his request will be granted,
provided the necessary officers and men
can be obtained to put her in commission.
The Atlanta is one Of the pioneers Of the
new navy Like the Chicago, she was built
by John Roach at Chester, Pa, in 1888.
She was one of the famous white squadron
under Admiral Walker
Admiral Schey reports that the health
of his entire command is excellent and
that good work has been accomplished in
target practice with great guns and small
arms. Admiral Schley has only a few
months more of active service, as he will
retire for age next winter.

4 JIDICIOUS SELECTION.
Appointment of DIR. Mumm Won
SchNvarZenstein So Considered.

SchwarZenstein So Considered.
The appointment of DIR. Mumm Won
SchwaTZenstein as the successor of Won
ketteler was received in this city today
a very iudicious selection on the part of the
German government. DIR. Mumm Won
Schwarzenstein is regarded as an exceed
ingly capable diplomat and one who can be
depended upon to act with discretion in the
post to which he goes. He is we'll known in
this city, where he has been connected will
the German legation for number of years
at different times When he first came here
an attache of legation he remained about
three years. being under Count Arco, who
was then the German minister. He was
then sent to Bucharest, and afterward to
Rome. For four years he attached to
the German foreign office, after which
vice he was stationed as minister resident
at Luxembourg. He was here last summer,
but returned to again be minister resident
al Luxembourg. His service of four years
in the German foreign Office has given him
a thorough familiarity with the purposes of
the German government, so that he is re-
garded one of the best informed men
that could have been selected for the diff
cult post to which he has gone
