Require His Attention.

Washington. Aug. 23.-Attorney Cen
eral Knox returned to the city today
from his vacation, spent principally at
Atlantic City On Monday he will
leave for New York, preparatory to
sailing for Paris next Wednesday on
the Oceanic. He had hoped that this
trip to France might be avoided, but
Ny Russell, who is now there inFesti-
eating the Panama canal question for
this government, has cabled Mr. Knox
that there are some features of the
case that, in his opinion, should receive
the attorney generals personal atten-
ton. AS to what these matters are
Mr. Knox has no information.
In speaking of the railroad merger
suit, the attorney general said that tes-
timoRy would be taken in the case. be-
ginning at New York next month.
When that had been concluded the
court would set a time for an oral
hearing.
Mr.. Knox said that within a day or

the government counsel in Quebec as
TO the next steps to be taken to extra

that he would be selected to succeed

Mr. Knox said that he had no informa-
ton upon the subject. He declined to
indicate whether he would accept the
place If ii were offered to him.

FASTEST u. S. WARSHIP
Trial Trip of the Maine Was Sat.
isfactory to Her Builders and
the Government.

Boston, Aug. 23.-The new fiTst-class
hdttleship Maine raced around the cape
on her trial course to prove her right
to fly the United States ensign. Her
contract calls for a speed of eighteen
knots an hour for four continuous
hours of steaming. and though on one
siX-mile leg she dropped to 1870, on
her fastest she reached 1879, and this
was followed by other speeds equally
agreeable. Thus at the end her
mean speed developed, without the
ideal allowances, was given out as
1873 This is not official, as the navy
board has not completed its figuring
and will not for some time, but this is
the statement made by the Cramps.
There is a little feeling that she was
expected to go over this mark, but as
il is. she stands today as the fastest
battleship in the American navy. For
the Illinois, which up to this time has
held the record, did only 17.S4 on her
fastest leg.
When the Maine was coming over at
one time she is understood to have
been pushed to 1896, but it is explained
that this is the first time trial trip
of this sort has been given under serv-
ice conditions with unpicked coal and
with an ordinary crew of stokers-

NOT YET SATISFIED
u. S. Steel Corporation Tryingto

Iron Foundries.

Milwaukee, Aug. 23.-The Sentinel to-
morrow will say: The United States
Steel corporation is trying to effect a
combination, of all the malleable iron
fOundries of the country 1t has made
overtures, and has been negotiating
with the Northwestern Malleable Iron
company of Milwaukee, the largest in
stitution of it's kind in the United
States Whether Or not this concern
will enter the merger is not known.
President Frederick w. SILVER of the
Wyoming company said tonight:
"Our concern has been approached by
eastern capitalists, who have, for more
than a year been trying to effect a
merger of all the malleable iron foun-
dries in the country While ours is
the largest in the United states. l have
never been able to see at all how being
in such a combination could benefit US.
Unless we could be benefited there
would be no object in our joining il.
No option has been given the proposed
combination.
It is understood the wisconsin Male
able Iron company has been ap-
preached in a like manner, and that II
stands upon the matter the same as
the Northwestern company

UlNTAH INDIAN
ALL0TMENTS
Nothing Will Be Done Until Con-
gress Meets.
AFRAID OF A JOB
LAND OFFICE ADVISED CON-
CORNING FOREST FIRES.
Especial to The Herald.)

WASHINGTON, d. c., Aug. 23--In
w all probability nothing will be
done until after congress meets
next winter looking toward securing an
agreement with the Uintah Indians of
Utah. whereby they will agree to take
aiiotinents of portions of their reserva-
ton lands and consent to the disposal
of the surplus for their benefit. The
failure OF congress at the last session
to provide for a survey of the Uintah
reservation is the direct cause of this
delay Secretary Hitchcock now has
authority to proceed with negotiations
with the Indians. but the department
announces from time TO time that
there is mo special agent available"
which is a mere excuse, as there are
several men available who have been
available for several weeks, but who
are being assigned to other work from
time to time. Secretary Hitchcock is
afraid that some Job will be put I'D
if an agreement is had so far in ad,
vance of the time when allotments can
actually be made, and hence holds out
obstinateIy. The best advices that
have yet been received are to the eff
feet that many Uintah Indians are dis
being true, it will take some little time
to complete preliminary arrangements
It looks as If z survey would be com
pleted, with fU ads to be appropriated
at next session of congress, before ne
gotiations have been concluded. It j.
now almost certain nothing will be
done this summer or fall.

of private owners to participate in

disappeared and they are now cooper

The Indian Office has been indirectly

been started by Indians and this is not
denied, although there is no official in

WEATHER CONDITIONS FAVOR
ABLE TO THE INVADERS

d OCKPoRT, Mass, Aug. 2s-The
II line of battleships of Admiral Hig-
ginson's fleet. which are defend
ing lengthy strip of New England
coast from a foreign fleet, put to sea
under urgent orders at $3.50 tonight. in
deating that some news has been re-
ceived Of Commander PfTsbury- The
weather conditions at 10 o'clock were
in favor of the enemy, the sky being
overcast and an easterIy wind prevail
ing
Many dispatches came during the
early evening, the tenor of them in
dicating that the white squadron was
not far off at sea, off the Isles OF
Shoals At 10 O'Clock tonight the cruiser
olympia was inside the islands, the
Brooklyn was cruising to seward off
the shore and the Decatur was patrol
ling Portsmouth harbor With Admiral
Higginson's battleships bound north
ward. 1t would appear that Commander
Pillsbury is expected to make his run
IN toward land tonight off either Ports
mouth or York harbors.
Making a Feint.
This afternoon il was understood
that one of Commander PiIlsbury'S
cruisers had been reported off Rock
land, Me This is a long distance be-
yond the nOrtherly limit of the battle
line, but it was suggested that either
the enemy was making feint to draw
a preponderanee of the fighting
strength of Admiral Higginson's fleet
to Portland, so that a quick counter
dash could be made into Massachusetts,
bay, or else Commander PiIIsburv de-
sired information as to the blockade
conditions.
The blue squadron officers are certain
that the enemy has its own intelligence
bureau along the shore, and has landed
officers at ROckland. Ne. and Province
town, Mass. Suspicious signals at Cape
POrpoise, on the Isles of Shoals. and
even here at Rockport indicate that the
blockade running plan has not been
entirely drawn up at sea
Wires Crossed or Cut.
A signaIman of the Blue SQUADRON
at IL o'clock tonight reported to the
naval base officers that he sighted
three large vessels going to the north
ward at a fourteen-knot clip, but they
were too far off shore for him to iden-
tify them It is presumed that Admiral
Higginson made a wide sweep on
Massachusetts bay before running I'D
the coast
Soon after II O'Clock two torpedo
boats appeared off here, and it is
learned that they were detached from
the battleships and ordered back TO
patrol the harbor neighbOrhood. Many
officers have conjectured that Com
mander Pillsbury would delay his at
tack as long as possible, and then by
strategy endeavor to strike the naval
base.
The return of the torpedo boats did
not surprise those who are keeping
close watch on the situation here.
Something must have gone wrong
with the line communication during the
evening, preplexing the naval officers.
The wires at several points are re-
ported crossed or cut and some mes

effort was being made at a late hour

FIFTEENTH WEEK OF STRIKE.
Operators Have Made Slight Gains in
Wyoming District.

Wilkesbarre. Aug. 23.-President
Mitchell arrived here from Chicago this
afternoon. He said he was not going

situation was unchanged.

The close of the fifteenth week of the
strike shows that the operators have
made some gains in the Wyoming re-
gion. The output of coal has been
larger than at any time since the strike
began This is due to the fact that
more washeries have been in operation
the past week than at any previous
time since May L.

THE REMARKS GENERAL
Roosevelt Had All the Southern
Republicans in Mind and Not
Those of Texas Alone.

Providence, r. l., Aug. 23.-The
friends of Cecil A. Lyon, chairman of
the Republican state committee of Tex
as, are considerably exercised over the
recent announcement by the president
that he wished to warn the republicans
of the south that if they wanted any
thing from him, they would have to
get out and secure votes instead of
getting delegates to Republican ma
tionaI conventions and looking for fed
efaI Offices. Judging from a dispatch
received aboard the train today. the
friends of Mr.. Lyon seem to think that
he was made the special object of the
presidents ultimatum, and was held
responsible for the political quarrel in
Texas, but this was found to be incor-
rect, the president saying that his re-
marks applied to all

of contract made in 1879 between the
company and the national government:
that this contract should be fulfilled
by the company without the necessity
or the government giving previous
guarantee of protection and that the
insurgents could not oppose the trans
portation of Colombian troops in a
British vessel because any intimation
of violence or act of violence on their
part would expose them to be treated
as pirates, insomuch as they have not
been recognized as beIligerents
General Salazar said further that in
the event of an insignificant attack
upon British vessel carrying govern
ment troops the government would be
ready TO protect this vessel with all
the forces at its command and that the
men of war now in Colombian waters
had been sent there with the object of
protecting the interests guaranteed bv
the British flag.
