WASHINGTON. April 5.-Papers were
filed today before the Spanish Treaty
Claims commission on behalf of the Spanish
American Abattoir company by Blymer,

the United States, to recover 800. 900 on
account of a franchise granted by the
Spanish authorities to the company giving
them the exclusive right to engage in the
stock yards and packing house industry at
Havana, Cienfuegos and Santiago, Cubs.
The papers state that the franchise was
granted to the Spanish American company
in competition with Armour q Co. At the
time Of the insurrection. II ID set forth, all
operations were suspended. since which
time 1t is claimed that the grant has been
Of no value. The right OF action In this

ration or having ever been operated

cillor Leonard Courtney sent to the Times
this week a dignihed vindication Of the late
John P. Altgeld from the ~virulent attack
on his character made by the Times Wash
ington correspondent, @. w. Smalley. Mr..
Courtney complains OF the false and un-
Just judgments on Mr.. Altgeld's public
acts to which the Times has given space"
Mr.. smalley attributed Mr.. Altgeld's re-
lease Of the anarchist c%onvicts at Chicago
to sympathy with anarchism.
Mr.. Courtney replies: Nothing can be
more severely legal and constitutional than
Judge Altgeld's exposition Of the reasons
which impelled him to release the convicts
under life terms. There is no trace OF
sympathy on his part with bonn throwers.
He simply believed there was no evidence
to support conviction"
Mr.. Courtney likens Altgeld in his train
ing, his habits OF mind and his methods Of
argument to the late Charles Bradlaugh
and says:
"A careful, ell-considered estimate Of
his life and work would have been most
useful in contributing to our knowledge,
but your correspondents review does not
seem to have been executed in this cold
light OF reason"

Andrew Carnegie's love Of organ music
induced him to present organs to several

kist OF whistles with a devil In every key"
and this new parable has been made out Of
Mr.. Carnegie's insidious presents: when
Andrew Carnegie came back from America
they say ne consulted the devil to know
how he best could help his work on in
Scotland. Send organs to their churches
the old villain said. Nothing would do
my work better than that So Andy is
giving away all the organs he can get fools
to take"

absorption OF money by the treasury and
the high rate OF exchange which threatens
gold exports seem to make II improbable
that there will be an Improvement in bank

form, making a great saving In coal
trimmers. Several boilers will be fitted
with mechanical stokers.
The ships will be provided with two
propelling twin screw engines of the
most approved design and of about
10000 horsepower. They will be capa-
BILE of generating speed Of seventeen
knots an hour. Each vessel will also
have sixteen water tube boilers Of the
modified Niclausse pattern, so con-
structed that in the event of accident
or damage to one or more the speed
Of the vessel will not be affected. The
most approved laundry system will be
provided on the vessel. Several Of the
cargo spaces will be well insulated
and arranged for the carrying of fro
zen meat, perishable fruits, vegetables
and other food commodities. Two
large electrically driven refrigerating
machines will be arranged so the tenn
perature, if required, may be lowered
to zero. Large cold storage rooms for
carrying provisions will have capaci-
ty to feed 1900 people for four weeks.
Extensive systems Of fire protection
will be provided.
Passenger accommodations will be
provided for $50 holders of first class
tickets, 100 second class and 40 third
class tickets. In the steerage 500 pas
sengers can be placed. The staterooms
will all be on the outside Of the cabin,
thoroughly ventilated and cooled.
Summing up the capacity, they will
carry double the cargo Of any other
ship in existence. Each vessel has
deckroom of more than five acres
available for carrying freight, and each
will be able to carry more than 100000
bushels of wheat. With the average
freight car that would be the capacity
Of railroad train seven miles long. To
transport full mixed cargo of one OF
these vessels would require $500 ordi-
nary freight and passenger cars, or 125
trains of twenty-five cars each. So far
as capacity is concerned, they will be
six times as large as any vessel now
plying the waters of the Pacific. They
will be running between Seattle and
the orient within a year. They are
building at New London, Conn.

When James J. Hill, the railway
magnate, was in Kansas City a few
days ago, he told a reporter for the
Kansas City Star that the Great North
ern company, Of which he is the prin-
cipal owner, was building two Of the
largest steamships in the world for
the transpacifc trade.
. A circular received recently at the
Burlington Offices goes into interesting
details as to the size of the new ves-
sells. They will each be $50 feet long,
1871 feet extreme beam and 55h feet
extreme depth, with q gross tonnage
Of about 1900 tons and an extreme
load of displacement of about $4,000
tons. The amount of steel required in
the construction, including 100000
rivets and forty miles of wire in the
installation of their electrical equip
ment, will aggregate $4,000 tons. There
are to be five continuous decks from
stem to stern. all of steel, beginning
at the bottom, as follows: Orlop, lower,
between, main and upper. Below the
main deck the cargo will be carried. On
this deck are to be accommodations
for second class third class and steer
age passengers and live stock. Above
the upper there will be three midship
decks for first class passengers, max
ing eight decks in all, including the
bridge. The dining saloon will be
placed on the upper deck, the library
and women's saloon on the promenade
deck and the smoking room on the
boat deck, while the captain will have
his charthouse and cabin on the bridge
deck.
Each vessel will be provided with
the finest electrical system ever in
stalled on shipboard, including thirty
eight cargo winches of the most ap-
proved type. They will be the only
ships that handle their cargo by cleo
trio power. All the auxiliaries, includ-
ing practically all the machinery out
side of that propelling the vessel, will
be operated by electricity. The coal
bunkers are capable Of carrying about
5000 tons and are so arranged above
the boilers that the coal will gravitate
by it's own weight to the firing plat
