ADVANTAGES OF sHEATHING
Capt. Forsyth Tells About the Foulinr
of the Ships bottoms

The American naval fleet in the Philip
pines is having trouble owing to the rapid
fouling of the ships in the warm, tropical
waters, and strong plea for sheathing to
protect them has come to the construction
bureau from Capt. Forsyth, the senior cap
tain on the station. Capt. Forsyth, after
asserting that the true interests of the navy
require that it should have sheathed ships
adds:
If you could know the infinite worry it
has been to me as chief of staff of this feet,
and to our commander-in-chief to keen the
bottom OF our ships clean; the constant
working and figuring about when we could
spare a ship to let her dock; the distance
from our scene of operations that we have
had TO send them: the cavalier way in
Whlcn We have been treated by docks and
docking companies. who knew they held MS
IN the hollow of their hands. I feel that it
would strengthen you in your determination

vana will on May L. begin publication of the
repertory, indicating the extent and char
acter of the changes made in the existing
tariff schedules. 1t is stated that the pur-
pose of the revision was to make good
grave defects in the Porter tariff which ex-
perience has developed. The principal fault
which Is sought to be cured is the mad
equacy or the Porter tariff as revenue pro-
ducer. and 1t Is also sought in the revision

To Increase Demand for Sugar.

Vice Consul Murphy, at Magdeburg, re-
ports to the State Department that the
growth of the beet sugar industry in the
United States and the increase Of sugar pro-
duction in other parts of the world are al
ready causing anxiety in Germany, and the
scientists are casting about for other uses
for the German sugar. Various propositions
are under consideration. some looking to in
crease of the export trade and others to an
augmentation of the internal CONSUMPTION
of sugar. TO be achieved so far as the army
is concerned, by arbitrary legislation in the
characteristic German method. Numerous
experiments are also being made with sugar
as the base to determine to what extent it
can be utilized as food for hogs and as a
muscle developer for the human race. The
results SO far recorded by the consul are in
teresting, as indicating hitherto unknown
value for sugar as military food

BRYAN's NOMINATION ASSURED.
Chairman Jones Claims for Him 800

From the New York Herald today.
Senator Jones, chairman of the democrat
ic national committee, who has so effect
lively nurtured the political interests of Mr..
Bryan for the last four years, contemplates
with marked complacency the situation as
it exists prospectively up to and during the
Kansas City convention.
In talking tonight. about the projected
movement to circumvent Mr.. Bryan's NOM
nation, Senator Jones said
The proposed movement Is very Wen
known 1t is doubtless a new lease of a
similar project fixed a few weeks ago in
this city, but which amounted to nothing
serious. There is no harm in exchanging
views. but it is somewhat perpleXing to rec
oncile the judgment of such an astute poll
tician as Mr.. German as favoring the move
ment contemplated even If it had the pros
pect of enough following to get it started.
Il nave very high regard for Mr.. Cor
mans political sagacity, bat cannot think
it will stand the test of embarking on such
a scheme
IF it is a move to bring Mr.. Cleveland to
the front 1t might as well be abandoned:

AS far as the personnel of the coming

The Clark Case,

Mr.. Hoar Mass.) then gave notice that
at the conclusion of morning business to-
day he would move to proceed to the con-
sideration of the resolution declaring Mr..
Clark of Montana not to be entitled to his
seat in the Senate.
The notice aroused an interesting col
loquy, indicating that some senators would
insist upon time in which to examine the
testimony taken by the committee on priv
ileges and elections.
Mr.. Bate said sufficient time had not been
had yet by senators to examine the case
and he was assured by Mr.. Hoar that prop
er time would be granted without a doubt
Mr.. Chandler said that reasonable time
would be given, but unreasonable delay
would not be submitted to.
Mr.. Bacon tGa.) said there might be q
difference of opinion as to what constituted
reasonable delay.
THE senator" said he, ''evidently desires
to rush this question to vote, but it is toe
important matter for hurried action. 1 dc
not know how much time l should require
to examine the three volumes of testimony
because l do not know how much time
can give to the matter. l shall not con.
sent to fix a time for consideration until
have had time to examine the testimony
know of no man who has had yet time tc
go through that testimony. do not believe
any senator desires unduly to delay con-
sideration of the resolution
Opposed to Haste.
Mr.. Stewart suggested that there ought
to be no attempt to rush the matter, as II
would require more time to read the three
volumes of testimony in the Senate than II
would for senators to examine them at their
leisure.
Mr.. Chandler said the statement of Mr.
Stewart could be taken only as a threat to
have the three volumes of testimony read
in the Senate He had heard. he said, tina.
there was purpose. of which he entirely
acquitted any senator, to delay the consid-
Grafton of the Clark resolution in order to
prevent the governor Of Montana from ap-
pointing senator to succeed Mr. Clark In
case he should be unSeated. He had heard
that it was intended to attempt to postpone
the case until next winter in order that MIR.
Clark might be in a better position to prose-
cute his claims for reelection before the
legislature of Montana
These were rumorS, he supposed, bat he
gave notice that he would demand a yea
and nay vote on the proposition of consid-
Grafton and definite action If sucn tactics
We're resorted to.
