OIL AS FUEL In NAVY.
Congress Asked to Make Appropria-
ton for the Purpose of Thor
OuEh Experiment.

Admiral Melville is in favor of ex.
vessels of the navy. and through the
secretary of the navy has recommends
ed that congress appropriate $4,000
for the invest, GA ton of the best neans
of burning liquid fuel. In his letter
transmitted to congress Admiral Mel
vile says:
in view of the fact that there now
appears to be an unlimited quantity
Of crude petroleum. both in California
and Texas oil fields, which can he de-
livered at tidewater a t a comparative
" slight cost, the bureau believes there
is necessity to commence extended eE-
periments for determining how this
combustible can be adapted for naval
uses.
'lNhe bureau deems it unnecessary to
tell of the many resulting advantages
which would accrue from the succ css-
full burning of liquid fuel on board
warship. l would state that if the hu-
reau deems it com patible with the best
interests of the service to accept large
al PURPOSES, an unlimited amount can
probably be secured free of cost"
For some time Admiral Melville
who is one of the most progressive
men in the navy, has advocated these
experiments, and he strongly and spe-
officially recommended them last year.
IS we'll this, in his annual report
Those interested in the production of
oil are also anxious to have the eXner-
iments made, as Admiral Melville init
mates in bis letter that they are will
ing to furnish free of cost all the oil
necessary to demonstrate whether or
not it would be advantageous and prac-
ticable for the navy to use oil for fuel.

AN AIRSHIP CONTEST.
International Competition Planned
for St. Louis Fair.
Herr Victor silbersr, President OF
Vienna Aero Club, Talks of Reg
ulations Necessary to Make
1t a Real Success

1t has been proposed to have an in
ternational competition of airships as
one of the features of the Louisiana
Purchase exposition at St. Louis next
year. The aerostatic committee of
the exposition has taken initial steps
to bring this interesting feature to
practical realiZa ton. Herr Victor Sill
berer, president of the Vienna Aero
club, whose experience in all matters
relating to ballooning is ve~y extern
sive, when interviewed in regard to the
project, manifested deep interest, and
expressed confidence in the POSSIBLE
ties of such airship and ballocning
competitions. His ideas in regard to
the best means of securing success for
such an aerostatic programme are as
follows:
The st. Louis aerostatic committee
should issue a programme with the
least possible delay. Due notice should
be given now.
The programme should be exceed
ingly definite and detailed, just as con-
Gitions are usually printed in advance
of an important horse race.
The airshirs. Herr Silberer thinks,
necessarily Will he limited in number.
Many of those now existing will have
disannenred entirely and new ones will
have taken their place.
est. Louis should be rticular ly
careful to try to get the balloons all
of the same dimensions" >.rr Sill
berer continued. at is IMPOSSIBLE to
handicap large and small balloons and
give interesting results. I have seen
balloon races in Paris with the inter-
est in them spoiled by irregularity
in size"
According to Herr Silherer, ST. Louis
should without delay fix the dimen-
sions of the balloons, say, at 1900 cubic
feet.
LET all the balloons be of the same
size; then the result will depend upon
those who direct them.'
Professionals. he claimed, should not
be admitted, and all European aero
static clubs should he approached pri-
vately. If such conditions be observed
the committee may expect every aero
club to send a representative balloon,
but otherwise not,

A MYSTERIOUS GIFT.
Admiral Schley Receives q Thousand
, Dollar Piano from a Sincere
and Shy Admirer.

A mahogany piano stands in Rear
Admiral Schley's apartments, and the
rear admiral and Mrs. Schley are won
dering where it came from. In the
rear admirals desk is receipted bill
of 81 900 for the instrument. Several
days ago a van drew up in front of the
Richmond hotel in Washington and
several men began to unload a piano,
which they said was for Rear Admiral
Schley.
The rear admiral came down stairs,
protesting that he had ordered no
piano. One of the men handed him the
receipted bill for 81 900 and also a short
note. The note partially cleared up the
situation. 1t concluded:
"Please accept this gift from sin
cere admrer, one who desires no not or
cd of expressing his regard for you"
There was no signature, nothing on
the paper to indicate the identity of
the writer, and the handwriting was
wholly unfamiliar to both Rear Ad-
miral and Mrs. Schley. When the men
had placed the instrument against the
wall the rear admiral offered them a
bill of large denomination. They po-
litely declined to accept, saying that
they had been paid, and that they were
instructed to receive nothing from
Rear Admiral Schley. The rear ad-
miral could learn nothing from them
concerning the gift. They evidently
had been ordered not to talk about it.
Since that time he has been able to
learn nothing more.

DRUNKEN SPREE IN MADRID.
Wealthy OregOnian Goes ON n Tear
But Spanish Authorities Deal
Leniently with Him.

United States Vice Consul Dean r.
Wood at Madrid has cited to the state
department an instance of Spanish for
beara nee which he regards as evidence
of growing good feeling towards the
United States. This grows out of the
outrageous doings of man from Ore
gon, who invaded Madrid, became in
toxicated, cast money about the
streets, knocked out with his fist half
dozen Spanish policemen and gen.
darmes. and yet was permitted to go
scot free by the Spanish judges on the
single condition of quitting Spain at
once.
The state department does not care
to publish the name of this man, be-
cause, according to Mr.. Woods ac-
count, he truly repented his exploits
and misdeeds. He had not touched
liquor for five years. and when he did
yield he became so thorough y intoxi-
Gated that he knew nothing of what
he did. After he had been subdued
with great difficulty by the Madrid po-
lice he was locked up and the Ameri-
can consular agent was sent for by the
Spanish judges.
When he explained the matter to
them the judges courteously offered to
release the prisoner at once if he
would leave Spain, and the Oregonian
was shipped at once homeward.

LIGHT FOR FIELD HOSPITALS.

The war department has adopted
portable illuminating plant. to be

new plan is a distinct advance in the

ment and will contribute to the eff

field. For some weeks the surgeon

ing with system of lighting which
makes use of acetylene, with the re-
suits that an ingenious arrangement
of packing and transporting the
plant and fixtures has been devised
A box IA inches square and one
foot six inches deep contains the
material and fixtures for lighting a
brigade hospital for five nights. The
box and contents weigh but IS
pounds. The light is equivalent to
that, furnished by 100 lanterns, using
six gallons of kerosene oil.
The generator contains five pounds
of carbide, and the advantage is that
better light is furnished at less
expense. The system is absolutely
safe and is packed and unpacked so
easily that the system can be in
stalled in less time than would be
taken up by filling one of the old
time lanterns.
Another box of 1Ox14 inches con-
tains the Illuminating plant for a
regimental hospital, the lighting
power being equivalent to that fur
nished by 20 lanterns. The advan-
tages to surgery in the field by
means of this system are obvious
and the surgeon general is ordering
full equipment for the medical de-
partment.
