which have been pending for several weeks,
may be concluded. An official OF the Pennsyl-
vania Company said to-day:
Mr.. Frick offers high enough figure for the
plant at Sparrows Point and II looks like a
sale. but that will only be determined in the next
few days. perhaps by Monday next. It will cost
the new organization something In the neigh
borhood OF from $4,000 900 TO Sl5.O 900. 900 to
acquire the property and operate il under mod
ern conditions with the improvements neces-
sary for the production of armor plate. and IL
il fairly well understood that Mr.. Prick intends
to take up the manufacture Of armor plate on
more extensive lines than has yet been at
tempted.
1T il given out that Coils T. Huntington.
whose extensive shipyards and dry docks. at
Newport News make his company a very de-
sirable interest to deal with. has united To- "A
large extent with Mr.. Prick in this new ven-
ture. and II Is not so much q question OF capital
lust now az II il Of n plant big enough to start
with. Sparrows Point will supply the armor
plate for vessels built at Newport News and

HAVANA. Feb. 7.-Govcrnor General Wood
has decided against Civil Governor Nunez In
the dispute between that official and Gen.
Ludlow over the formers assertion d his right
TO review tho Havana budget.
! There was q conference last night between
Gen. Wood. Gen. Ludlow and Gov. Nunez. At
this meeting the Governor General explained
70 Nunez that. inasmuch az President McKin-
ley's order making Gen. Ludlow supreme In
Havana city was still In force. Gen. Ludlow
must have the budget.
Civil Gov. Nunez says he understands this. but
he does not know whether in the future he or
Gen. Ludlow will be Civil Governor OF the city.
He declares that 10 maintain the present stu
alton with two commands. Woods and Iud-
lows. each getting orde re- from the President.
Is ridiculous. aud IL so confusing as to his
position that he does not know where he stands
officially.
The impression prevails here TINT the up
holding Of Gen. Ludlow Is due to adesire not
10 offend his pride. in view OF the belief that he
will shortly be relieved. The opinion Ia almost
universal that the present state OF affairs can
not last. but that. rather than raise an annoy
ing issue with Washington at this time.
Governor General Wood deemed IL best to
worry along until Gen. Ludlow's departure
next Saturday. After that the Department OF
Havana may be abolished.
The mud-slinging contest In which the new
paper La Luchn and Gen. Ludlow have been
engaged lately was 30 unbecoming and in,uri-
Gus to the interests OF the American admin
i~stration that Governor General Wood decided
to make an effort 10 stop II. He sent for Editor
San Miguel to-day and unoflcially and solely
in his personal capacity talked over the matter
with him What was said Is not known. San
Miguel's defence OF his course has been that
Gen. Ludlow said worse things about him than
IA ever said OF Gen Ludlow, Judging from
the columns of La Luchd. Gen. Wood succeeded
In smoothing the editor down. as nothing
dcrogatory to Gen. Ludlow appears in the
paper to-day. The fight with the Discussion.
aroused by Gen. Ludlow's letter to a New York
newspaper. Is still raging, Challenges and
counter challenges are flying thick and fast,
but there have been no duels yet.
Mr.. Robert Porter and Gen. Sanger arrived
here to-day.

BREATHE AND BE BEAUTIEUL.
Paradisiaoal Condition Of . Rainy Daisy
When the Air 10 Full Of Lungs.

Prof. Thomas Jefferson Harris talked 10 the
Rainy Daisies yesterday about their threats az
we'll as their ankles. When he told them that
women didn't cover their ankles enough. the
long.skirted Daisies liked that. But when he
said that sealskin jackets had been respon-
sible for more deaths In New York In the last
few years than smallpox. some Of the we'll
protected Daisies were Cross. 1t appeared later
that deaths from SMALLPOX In New York are very
