the special assistant attorney general en-

other officials and employees OF the United
states government in Cuba, is quoted today
TO the effect that the representations by
Neeley that the Cuban government had de-
cided to abandon its claim for the recovery
OF mo 80 charged to have been embezzled
was entTely erroneous. Mr.. Jones further
more said that on the contrary the Cuban
government, In conjunction with the gov
ernment Of the United States, intended TO
proceed with the most active measures
against Neeley to compel restitution Of the
funds and that the amnesty guaranteed by
the Cuban government related only to the
criminal offense and relieved Neeley merely
of the consequence Of his conviction Of the
crime of which he was charged and that 1t
did not in any way affect his liability to
restore the funds.

WILSON TO QUIT The CABINET
Rumor Has 1t That He netires Next
Year to Return to Anen
College.

WASHINGTON, Sept 6--Rumors OF the
coming retirement Of James Wilson, sec
retary Of agriculture. from The president s
cabinet have been renewed and those who
are circulating the report assert that 1t
is authentic this time. The report is not
new and has in. fact been passed around
every few months for npsf fhan year.
When Mr.. Shaw was csssie1 Cd Tho cabinet
the political seers accepted II as a notice
upon Mr.. wilson that his resignation
would be in order, as IT was not thought
probable that the president would have
two men in the cabinet from one state.
Mr.. Wilson felt the force of this argument
and stated in the cabinet meeting when
Mr.. Roosevelt announced the appointment
OF Mr.. Shaw that his resignation was
ready at any time II would suit the presl-
dents wishes. Mr.. Roosevelt wanted to
know why such a tender was made and
Mr.. Wilson offered the two cabinet-mem-
bers-from- -one-state gossip that had been
going on for some days. The president
promptly and with emphasis replied that
he did not want Mr.. Wilson's resignation
and further added that he would select his
entire cabinet from Iowa II It suited his
purpose to do so. II is known that the
president has a strong admiration for Mr..
Wilson and his work in the Agricultural
department and 1t is pretty we'll under
stood that II Mr.. Wilson resigns It will
be upon his own motion.
The present report has It that Mr.. Will
son will resign early next year TO accept
the presidency of the Iowa Agricultural
college at Ames, in that state The pres
idency Of this institution was made va
cant by the death on August of DR.. VIII
liam M. Beardshear and soon after that
the place was offered to Secretary Wilson.
He declined to accept 1t. with the under
standing the post would be held open for
him until next year. This was agreeable
to the trustees Of the college.
BY deferring his retirement for a year
1t is said the secretary believes he will
be able to secure from congress an appro-
priation for the new building for the De-
partment of Agriculture.

REPORTS ON oIL EUEL IEsI
Navy Department Expert says IL
Worked Well. but IL Not for
Promiscuous Use.

WASHINGTON. Sept 5.-The report OF
Lieutenant Winchell, U. S. NJ, the EXPERT
detailed by the Navy department to OBJ
serve the installation and efficiency OF the
OIL fuel system as fitted to the Oceanic
Steamship company's steamer Mariposa, has
been received at the Navy department.
The report is an interesting one and con-
tains matter of great value to the ship
ping and naval world. giving positive in
formation in regard to the evaporative ef-
iciency Of the boilers and setting out some
facts relative to the use of oil and fuel
which have been earnestly sought from the
Navy department by steamship men and
oil producers. Some OF these facts follow:
Mariposa's gross displacement was $3.50
tons and the average horsepower with oil
aboard about 31,51s giving a mean speed
Of 1888 with 27s barrels ~ oil per day
This was SO per cent less In weight than
would be required Of coal. for one and a
half pounds Of oil suflced to produce a
horsepower. An important advantage Of
the oil fuel was the reduction OF the en-
gine room force from thirty-six to twenty
men. The ship used only twelve OF It's
eighteen furnaces, burning crude in two
burners in each furnace BY means Of an
air compressor with capacity OF 1000
cubic feet per minute at thirty pounds
pressure. All Of the burners we're not
used except at short intervals.
Every precaution was taken to insure
safety by ventilating the oil tanks and
otherwise. The entire refuse, after run
of s,43S miles from San Francisco to Ia
hiti, barely filled two ash buckets and
the flames did not effect the boilers un-
favOrably. Difioulties experienced were
confined to the choking OF etrainers, which
can be obviated by duplicating those parts,
and In the regulation OF the supply of oil
to feeders. When the air compressor
needed overhauling In one or two in
stances, recourse was had to steam spray,
which wisely had been provided.
Lieutenant Winehell says that II fewer
men are needed in the FIRE rooms with OIL
1t is necessary to secure men Of higher
intelligence. with mechanical aptitude and |
nerve closely to watch the furnaces. The |
essentials are that there shall be a con-
slant air pressure for atomixing. Then |
provisions shall be made to provide regu- |
lar temperature Of the oil and that the |
oil strainers be watched constantly. Lieu
tenant Winchell concludes that Mariposa's |
trip was remarkable in many respects, and |
was not tribute to the enterprise of the |
company which first instituted oil burners
In lieu OF coal.
