the shell.
Pearls are composed Of many layers

pearls of tine lustcr and color are very
valuable, and their value increases rap

M,cREA WAS VIGOROUS.
Took Much on His Shoulders During
Trouble at Cape Hayden.

Washington, September 5.--The navy de-
partment has received from Commander
McCrea of the Machias a mail report
under date of Cape Haytien. August 16.
setting out in detail the steps taken by
that officer to prevent interference with
the worlds commerce as a result OF the
bitter insurrectionary struggle now in
progress In Haytien waters. Commander
McCrea was, from the nature of the
case, obliged to act without opposition
case. obliged to act without opportunity
to consult the navy or the state depart
ment but it is stated that his vigorous
and effective measures are thoroughly
approved.
1t appears from the commanders re-
port that he took under his charge the
commerce Of nearly all of the European
countries, in addition to that of his own.
His attitude toward Admiral Killick. the
insurgent commander, as revealed In the
report, is significant as indicating the
adoption of a stronger policy than has
been pursued heretofore in the treatment
of South and Central American revolu-
lions. which injuriously affect the COM
merce of the world.

It has issued a memorandum on the sub
ject as follows;
In consequence Of the many American
letters received with regard to sending
money to establish claims to property In
England, and especially in regard to the
so-called Drake estate credulous peo-
pie will avoid disappointment and save
money by having nothing whatever to do
with persons advertising as agents Of
unclaimed estates and as having in their
possession the family names OF persons
entitled thereto. nor with sensational
kilograms regarding English estates or

claimants, as such publications are apt

Tllden and Watterson.

From the New York Sun.
st. Clair McKelway. regent OF the state
university and Brooklyn's greatest orator
had listened to a politician tell why GER
tain men should be nominated because
the people wanted them.
How do you know the people want
them?' he asked.
''Why-why-well, that seems to be the
demand"
Then Mr.. McKelway told a story.
When Tilden was governor and was
looming up for the nomination for presi-
dent, Henry Watterson visited him sew
eral times. After each visit Waterson
would write for his newspaper or tell
in a speech great deal about Tilden.
One day Daniel Manning demonstrated
with the governor about talking SO much
to a newspaper man.
81 am afraid, Mr. Tilden. that your
close acquaintance and intimacy with
Watterson may result in some of our
plans leaking out"
Daniel" said Governor Tilden with a
twinkle in his eye, may be Henry is
more intimate with me than I am with
him."
The politicians who heard Mr.. Nickel
ways story looked thoughtful for a time
and then changed the subject.

OIL 4 SUCCESS AS
FUEL FOR STEAMER
WHEN JOURNEY WAS ENDED THE
ENTIRE REFUSE WOULD NOT
FILL TWO ASH BucKETs-cARE.
Full MEN NEEDED.

Washington. September 5.-The report
of Lieutenant Ward Winchell, U. S. N,
the expert detailed by the navy depart
ment to observe the installation and ef-
fieiency of the oil fuel system as fitted
to the Oceanic Steamship companys
steamer Marfposa, has been received at
the navy department The report is an
interesting one and contains matter of
great value to the shipping and naval
world, giving positive information In re-
gard to the evaporative efficiency of the
boilers and setting out some facts rela-
tive to the use of oil as fuel which have
been earnestly sought from the navy de-
partment by steamship men and oil pro-
dueers, as well as technical papers. Some
of these facts follow:
1.-THE Mariposa's gross displacement
was 3160 tons and her average horse power
with oil about 24s1, giving her a daily av-
erage of 1854 knots and mean speed OF
1s5s with 27S barrels of oil per day.
This was 30 per cent less In weight
than would be required of coal, for one
and half pounds Of oil sufficed to pro-
duee horse power. An important advan-
tage In the oil fuel was the reduction OF
the engine force from SO to 20 men. The
ship used u OF her IS furnaces. burning
crude oil in two burners IN each furnace
by means of an air compressor Of ca
pacity of 1000 cubic feet per minute at 30
pounds pressure.
Every precaution was taken to In
sure safety by ventilating the OIL tanks
and otherwise. The entire refuse, after
run of 3438 miles from San Francisco to
Tahiti barely filled two ash buckets and
the flames did no affect the boilers un-
favorably. The difficulties experienced
were confined to the checking OF strain
ers, which can be obtained by duplicat-
ing those parts. and In the regulation of
the supply of oil to feeders.
Lieutenant AVinchell says that II fewer
men are needed in the fire rooms for
oil it is necessary to secure men of high
er intelligence with mechanical aptitude
and nerve, closely to watch the furnaces.
The essentials are that there shall be a
constant air pressure for atomizing, that
provision shall be made to maintain reg
ular temper of the oil and that oil
strainers be watched steadily.

NELLY is LIABLE cIvILY.
cuba's Pardonlne Act Does Not Re-

New York. September Edward K.
Jones, the special assistant attorney gen.
eral, engaged by the United States to
conduct proceedings against Charles f.
w. Nelly and other officials and en-
ployes of the United States government
is quoted today to the effect that the
representations by Nicely that the Cuban
government has decided to abandon its
claim for the recovery of the monies
charged to have been embezzled was
entirely erroneous.
Mr.. Jones Furthermore said that on
the contrary the Cuban government in
conjunction with the government of the
United States intended to proceed with
the most active measures against Nicely
to compel restitution of the funds that
the amnesty guaranteed by the Cuban
government. related only to the criminal
offense, and relieved Nicely merely of
the consequences of his conviction, and
did not in anyway affect his liability to
restore funds.

Masonic Temple Scandal at
Chicago is Being Pushed
CHARGE OF FORGERY MADE
IT is Believed the Investigation VIII
Unearth a Conspiracy to System
aticaily Rob the County of
Thousands of Dollars.

Chicago, September 5-Indictments were
returned in Judge Chetlain's court today
against four men implicated In the Ma
sonic Fraternity Temple association tax
fixing scandal which has taken up the
time of a special grand jury all week
and which county officials believe will re-
suit in unearthing conspiracy systemat-
ically to mulct the county out OF hum
dreds Of thousands Of dollars of taxes
annually. The men against whom true
bills are returned are; Luke Wheeler,
charged with forgery and conspiracy to
defraud; Capt. Edward Williams, mana
ger of the Masonic temple, charged with
uttering a forged II strument and with
conspiracy; James B. Hoy, conspiracy to
defraud. and John J. Healy, Jr., con-
spiracy to defraud the county.
According to the testimony given be-
fore the grand jury. 1t is supposed that
Wheeler was tho leader In the alleged
conspiracy Some time ago it was dis
covered that an entry of paid had been
forged opposite an itAn Of nearly $4,000

fore the grand jury to the effect that the
Temple association wished to Issue sew
eral hundred thousand dollars worth Of
new bonds to improve Its financial condi-
ton, but that because the building had
been sold once before for taxes, trust
companies would not float the bonds I'M
less the property was free from liens.
1t was alleged that brides were offered
to county employees to make the forged
entry, and that Luke Wheeler was the
go-between. Wheeler at present is mis-
sing.
Captain Williams was arrested last Sat-
urday and gave bonds for 5000 for his
appearance. The grand jury in connec-
ton with the Masonic Temple case has
investigated number of alleged forged
notes, put out by Wheeler purporting to
come from influential business firms of
this city. Testimony before the investi-
eating body was to the effect that
Wheeler had said he received the notes
for taking care" of property before the
state board of equalization, when the
body made tax assessments.
