NEW YORK, Dec 25.-The Navy De-
partment has decided to abandon carrier
pigeons in favor of -wireiess telegraphy,
and orders have been issued to the Navy
Yards TO sell the homirg pigeons now on
hand.
With the Brooklyn Navy Yard there are
ifty-fve birds. They VIII be sold Monday
Rear Admiral Barker. Commandant of
the Brooklyn yard said that ne inferred
that it was the intention Of the depart
ment to develop wireless telegraphy for
use in the navy, believing it to be su-
perior to the pigeon system. He did not
know that wireless telegraph stations
would be established at the yards where
the pigeons are now used
II suppose he said, that they viii
first develop wireless teIegraphy, and then
establish stations wherever they please
Some time ago there was board ap-
pointed to look into the matter, and be-
Iieve the report was favorable to wireless
telegraphy, It is believed the department
will put the wireless telegraphy on all
ships.

work done for the county in the name Of
Lawrence E Whiteman. His attorneys
yesterday moved for an arrest OF judg-
ment- and considering the many exeep-
lions they had taken during the trial it
was regarded as almost certain that an

preme Court; but such intention evident
" was abandoned. and IL was decided TO
accept the sentence. The jury in the case.
it was learned. took only one ballot. and
this was unanimous for conviction

often presided over the commissioners Of
the county in the manage ment OF its al
fairs. It was nearly 4 o'clock when At
