"ENEMY's" FLEET NOT SEEN.
Defenders of Porto Rico on Duty in
the War Game.

A special cable dispatch to the New
York Sun from Humacao, P. R., yesterday
says: The vessels of the white feet, under
command Of Rear Admiral Sumner, repre-
senting an enemy in the maneuvers now in
progress, have not been sighted by the blue
or defending fleet.
Admiral Dewey. on board the Mayfiower
and accompanied by the Dolphin, arrived
at Culebra on Sunday night. The arrival
of these vessels caused much excitement
among the defenders. Both vessels had
their side and masthead lights set. and
when they were seen from the signal sta
ton 1t was thought that they belonged to
the white fleet. This was signaled and the
communications were seen by the vessels
of the defending feet stationed around
Porto Rico and the adjoining islands.
The torpedo boat Biddle, which was at
Culebra, was ordered to ascertain If the
approa ching vessels belonged to the enemy,
and it was soon learned that they were the
Mayf1ower and Dolphin. The Biddle ar
rived at Humacao Playa today.
The vessels of the defending fleet are
practically in the same positions as here
tofore.
The Biddle and Thornton were in COL
lision on Sunday night. The boats were
leaving the harbor of Culebra, when the
Thornton, which was in advance, at
tempted to turn and the Biddie ran into
her. They did not come together very hard.
and beyond having her bow bent the Bid
die sustained no serious damage. The
Thornton was not injured.
1t Is reported that the piston rods Of the
torpedo boat destroyer Decatur are bent.

Action Is being taken on the reports re-

animal industry of the Department Of Agri-
culture. who has been making a personal
investigation of the epidemic for the past
week or ten days. Under the organic act
creating the bureau of animal industry au-
thority Is given to Its officials to kill anil
mails having infectious diseases. The gov
eminent Is to pay portion of the value Of
the animals killed, the amount to be fixed
by agreement. The governments share has
usually been 20 per cent In such cases.
The foot and mouth disease OF cattle has
never before been known In this country,
and DR.. Salmon believes 1t was brought
here from Europe in hay used to feed a
noticed last June, and has been making
rapid progress since that time. The ten
dency among farmers has been to conceal
the facts as much as possible and as the
disease Is very contagious 1t has made con-
siderable Roadway.
The disease manifects itself by sores on
the gums of cattle, preventing them from
eating for several weeks. In mich cows 1t
stops the milk The affected cattle have to
be killed, and the large number that have
been and are to be condemned is the cause
for the proposed appropriation.

tinued its consideration Of the agriculture

the division of plant industry, was heard
on the estimates for his bureau.

THE QUALITY OF GAS
COMPLAINT FILED BY RESIDENT
OF BRooKLAND.
District Electrical Engineer Submits
Report Upon the Subject to

The Senate District committee recently
forwarded to the Commissioners a letter OF
complaint from Mr.. Robert Collie OF the
Brookland Citizens Association relative to
the alleged poor quality Of gas furnished
the residents of that suburb. The Commits
sioners called upon the electrical engineer
for a report on the matter and he has now
submitted statement in which he calls
attention to q map showing the principal

1.-THE extension of main along Central

stated. While main could be laid on
Michigan avenue (which is practically at

establishing of public street lamps.
II would recommend, therefore, that the
Brookland Citizens Association be informed
that under the circumstances the Commits
