Puget Sound. The Relief would be Mt
ted up as a naval hospital ship, a pur-
pose for which she is eminently suited,
as she is already equipped for hospi-
tai purposes. The Hancock would prob
ably be used to transport naval re-
cruits between stations.
In the matter of the transfer of the
Lawton to the navy, II is not proba-
bic that any legal difficulties would
stand in the way, as she was purchas-
ed out of the general defense fund and
the controller of the treasury has al
ready decided that she could be used
either by the army or the navy. But
the other three transports were pur-
chased out of specific appropriations
for the transport service of the army
and could not be transferred to the
navy except by purchase in pursuance
of regular appropriation Tor that pur-
pose.
Upon the return of Secretary Root,
the whole subject will be taken up In
connection with the old question of the
total abandonment of the army trans
port service and the transportation of
troops upon the regular Pacific mer-
chant liners. If a decision is reached
favorable to the transfer of the four
transports above mentioned to the
navy Congress VIII be asked TO au-
thorize the transfer.
The original cost of the Grant was
$500 0hO and the Hancock, $500, 0hn end
the Relief $3.50, 900. Between 500, 600 and
500, 900 was spent upon each of these
vessels in repairs and new fittings. The
War Department declines to make pub
lie the exact amount of the bids re-
ceived for them when they were offer
ed for sale, but 1t is known that COM
pared with the purchase price the Of
fers were ridiculously small.

NAVY WANTS TRANSPORT.

Doesn't Want.
From the Washington Star.
The Navy Department is very anx-
ious to obtain possession of the army
transports Grant. Lawton, Hancock
and Relief, and request has been
sent to the War Department asking
that they be transferred to the navy.
After the reduction of the size of the
army in the PHILIPPINES, and the conse-
ouent reduction of demand for army
transports, it was decided to sell "A
number of transports no longer need
ed to the highest bidder. The trans
ports were offered for sale. but the
bids were so low compared with the
price the government paid for them
that all the offers were rejected. The
fact that the bids were so much below
the appraised value was mainly due to
the fact that the ships were of foreign
register and If purchased by American
citizens could not have been used in
the coast-wise trade.
The Navy Department contemplates
using the Grant and the Lawton, IL

GEN. YOUNG'S JOKE.
German Cities With Which He Was
Familiar.


From the New York Herald.
London, Tuesday Gen. Corbin, who
has arrived in London on his way back
to New York after witnessing the Ger
man army maneuvers talks in the
most enthusiastic manner about the
Kaiser's reception of the American
generals and of the lessons which the
mimic warfare impaired.
1.-The Emperor was most kind and
courteous" said Gen. Corbin, when /
saw him at the Carlton Hotel He
talked and chatted with the utmost
freedom: The ice was broken almost
as soon as we were presented. The
Kaiser came up to us Ola the Templer-
hof, and after talking awhile said to
Gen. Young:
"Is this your first visit to Germany,
general?'
"'WelI, replied Gen. Young, I've
never been in this part of Germany be-
fore
mot in this part?' queried the Kali
ser, smiling. What German places
have you SEEM
"'Oh' replied Gen Young, with the
most serious face. I've been in Mil
waukee. st. Louis and Cincinnati
often.
The peal of laughter from the EN-
peror's lips caused the members of his
staff, who were sitting on their horses
some distance away, to look at the
Kaiser and the American generals with
considerable establishment.
THE Kaiser was so tickled by Gen.
Youngs German explorations that he
led him over to where the Empress
was, presented him, and repeated to her
what Young had said.

A disappearing Sultan.


From the London Telegraph.
The chief eunuch of the harem be-
longing to the son Of the late Abdul
Aziz, and cousin of the present sultan,
recently presented his majesty with a
slave. The Sultan, however, was con-
WINGED that she was dangerous and
sent with an evil purpose, and so re-
fused the gift and exiled the donor.
The prince was furious and went to
the Sultan to demand his servant back,
as he had been with him for twenty
years. The Sultan replied that he had
had him so long 1t was quite time he
changed. The prince got more excited
and was talking very freely when he
suddenly found he was alone in the
room. 1t turned out that the Sultan,
who had been apparently leaning
against the wall, had vanished through
an invisible door, which is there in
case of emergencies. The prince went
home and has not been allowed to come
out since.

An Important Decision.
Collection Agencies Have No Right to Hold
Up Wages.

Attorney General Elkin gave on
Thursday as his legal opinion that
under the act Of 1887 relating to the
assignment of claims, if the West
Virginia claim agency presses the
wrlts of attachment against railroad
ers and compels railroad companies
to pay the debt, the railroaders may
proceed against the merchants OF
other creditors making assignment oI
hese claims and under the law re.
cover from them as penalty the full
amount of debt, interest and costs SC
collected.
Some time ago Frank Snaveley ant
A. !. Johnson and other employees o
the Pennsylvania Railroad Co., wish
ing to ascertain what legal right the
West Virginia Collection Agency haC
to hold up the wages OF railroad EN-
ployes in Harrisburg, Altoona anC
other points along the Pennsylvani;
line for debt, sent letter to Attorne!
General Elkin stating the case ant
asking his opinion on the subject.
Mr.. Elkin concludes his opinion a
follows: "This whole system of max
ing collections is vicious and SHOULD
not be encouraged. 1t seems to IN,
that when merchants and other cred
itors fully understand the true charac
ter of the suits instituted and the pen
atty which they must pay If the suit
are pressed against them they will re
train from making assignments c
claims for this purpose"
