DEWEY'S FUTURE DUTIES.
To Act i'm an Advisory Capacity witt
No Routine Work

No Routine Work.
Secretary Long has announced that Ad-
miral Dewey's relations TO the Navy De-
partment in the future would be of an en-
tirely advisory nature, and that he would
not be called upon to consider minor mat
ters. such as constantly arise before the
department. and which often lead the bu-
reau chiefs into acrimonious and prolong-
ed discussions
There is now no purpose to form an adj
miralty board unless the bureau experts
find they are unable to agree expeditiousIy
on the type and character of the new ships
authorized. in which event the whole sub
ject may be taken out of their hands and
placed with that of new board. compris-
ing high ranking naval officers of whom
Admiral Dewey will be the senior member
and presiding officer
Secretary Long wishes to leave the Ad-
mira1 entirely free from vexatious subjects
and not TO ask for his advice except upon
matters of the highest Importance. Should
the formation of some new naval policy
become advisable Admiral Dewey will be
looked to for advice, but smaller matters
will be left, as they are now, for settle
ment by the bureau chiefs and the Con-
struction Board, composed of the depart-
ment heads.
The Admirafs duties will not be onerous
or trying. and unless some unexpected oc-
casion arises he will probably have little
more nf"ially to attend to than did Ad-
miral 10. er.

A BIG SHIPBUILDING PROJECT.

Built at New York.

bUIH NJ ReW
NEW YORK, Feb. S-According to a re-
port current In Wall Street yesterday An
drew Carnegie and other capitalists con-
template the erection of an immense ship
building plant
1t is said that four or five sites along the
North River front have been inspected, but
that elaborate precautions were taken TO
keep the project secret. as it was feared
that if the news of the scheme was pub
lished it would cause big rise in the price
of available property.
The reason for selecting this port for the
erection of the plant, it is declared, is that
for shipbuilding on a big scale it offers
unlimited facilities for the transportation
of material. deep water, and Il great and
ever available market for labor, for 1t is
intended to build battleships and other
vessels of the larger size. and the works
will give employment TO thousands of men.
Mr.. Carnegie declined to be interviewed
on the subject, but. in response to the
written questions. denied through the me-
dunn of a servant that he is Interested in
any such scheme.
Il do not intend to engage In any busi-
ness other than my own. was the mes

Brigadier General A. W. Greely. CHIEF
Of the Signal Service OF. ;he Army. has re-
turned 10 his duties at the War Depart
ment and has about recovered from the
effects Of the assaul, made upon him az
his home several weeks ago. one Of his
first acts on the return TO duty was to
arrange for sending number OF Signal
Corps men TO the Philippines
The men have been in training az the
Signal Corps School ar Fort Myer for
some time and yesterday twelve OF them
were sent to san Francisco 10 go TO Manila
by the first army transport sailing for that
port. The men are well versed in the
principles OF telegraphy and electricity.
and viii be sent to join the Signal Corps
men at work In the field in the Philippines
Since the outbreak OF the war with Spain
the Signal Corps of the Army has been
greatly hampered in its work by the lack
of experienced telegraph operators Dur
ing the war General Greedy secured plenty
OF operators who wanted the excitement Of
fighting, and were willing 10 serve their
country. but as soon as peace was de-
clsred most Of them left the service and
drifted back into commercial life. The
establishing of telephone and telegraph
lines and stations under the control of the
War Department in Cuba, Porto Rico, and
the Philippines, has taxed the Signal Ser
vice Corps severely, and 10 furnish the
necessary men who would have the skill
required to be of service. General Greely !
established a school at Fort Myer, where 1
recruits can be trained.
The experiment has been highly sue \
cessful All enlisted men for the Signal |
Service are now sent to Fort Myer,
where they are put through a course of /
training in telegraphy; the principles of \
electricity. wireless telegraphy and other 1
methods of signaling in use in the army. |
Ii requires from three TO five months for 4
the men TO gain a fair knowledge of the 1
duties required of them. and TO be pre- /
pared to be sent to the Signal Corps of the |
Army, where by actual experience they |
sooc develop into frst-elass teegraphers |
and obtain a knowledge of electrical |
apparatus and become experienced line |
men.
The school at Fort Myer is being large |
ly recruited from the country, young men \
OF good physique with fair education who /
are desirous OF learning telegraphy as a |
business being enlisted. The recruits en-
ter rs second class privates at $3.50

tions furnished them. IL ambitious they

FOR the BLOOD. LIVER. LUNGS.

Experience has shown to physicians
that the majority of diseases have their
origin in the arrangement or disease of
the stomach and other organs of diges-
ton and nutrition. The stomach is the
receptacle in which food is received and
the laboratory in which it is prepared to
nourish the different parts of the body.
1t prepares brain nourishment in one
way, nerve nourishment in another,
muscle nourishment in another. When
the stomach is "out of order" these
various forms of nourishment are only
partly or imperfectly prepared, and
nerve, muscle, or brain, as the case
may be, is only partly fed, and the result
is pain, which is Natures protest and
warning. The pain may be i'll the head
or in the heart, but you must reach If
through the stomach or you can't cure
1t. That is the philosophy on which DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
prepared. II has absolute control of
the stomach and digestive and nutritive
system. 1t cures diseases in head, heart,
liver, lungs and other organs by curing
the diseased condition OF the stomach
which prevents the proper nourishnent
OF the various organs and corrupts them
by its own diseased condition, in the
partial nourishment ii provides. In like
manner Golden Medical Discovery"
purifies the blood, by purifying the
and other blood-making organs.

When they can be raised to the dignity of territories, without dcti iment CT damage to the interests of the peo ale of the states, congress can aud will dispose of those dependencies in that way.

THE CONSTITUTION FOLLOWS
 THE FLAG"

VI AANaN-~ -ff Ch MN StiiNAAttlAiOAA '
 the United States plainly says:
 "The congress shall have powe
 to dispose of and make all needfu
 rules and regulations respecting tn
 territory or other property belong
 ing to the United States, and noth
 ing in this constitution shall be S,
 construed as to prejudice to any O
 the claims of the United States O
 any particular state"
 It is remarkable that in ths
 discussion over the Porto Rican bil
 some of the statesmen, iu congress
 or in editorial sanctums, have mol recalled that clause in the constitu. tion and quoted it. Thereunder congress has the power to regulate in anyway it sees fit, any of the ter ritory which may be acquired by the United States, until it is dis posed of. Whenever congress passes an organic act creating a ter ritory it relinquishes to the people of the area included a portion of that power, but continues 10 exer- else in a measure a supervision over the regulation and government of its internal affairs. Whenever congress, by an enabling act author izes the people of a territory to create state and then admits such state into the Union, the area in- cluded therein ceases to be territory of the United States, and cannot be disposed of by congress. The United States cannot resume its absolute sovereignty over any part thereof except by an absolut, cession from the legislative and executive power of that state. That has been neces- sary where the general government has bought land for purposes offor- ftication. Of course where reserva- tions were made at or preceding creation of the state such cession was not necessary. The territory affected was never q part of the fer ritoTy of the state in which con- tained.
 Now then, the argument is that when by conquest, purchase or otherwise the United States ac- luires territory in any part of the world, constitutionally it is absolute Iy under the control of congress lntil such time as 1t is otherwise disposed of. Congress may sell it. If the writer mist lkes not a part of Texas came with the Florida purchase and was afterward re- inquished by congress- But it is and governed by special tets of congress until such time as { is disposed Of, And the revenue avs, or any other general enact nents of the government at Wash ngton do not extend thereto until he territory involved is disposed 'f' by its erection into a partially elf-governing commonwealth, by n organic act creating territory.
