SILVER SERVICE FOR scHLEY.
Donated by Friends in Maryland and
This City.

BALTIMORE. May 3.-The magnificent
silver service made from silver coins taken
from the Spanish cruiser CristObal Colon,
to be presented to Admiral Winfield Scott
Schley by his friends in this state and in
Washington, has been completed, and is on
exhibition in the show windows of the
manufacturers in this city. The service
consists of one center piece, one soup tureen
and ladle four vegetable dishes with cover
one gravy boat and ladle, one roast platter,
one game platter, one fish platter, nineteen
dessert plates. Upon each piece are en-
graved Admiral Schleys initials in mono
gram, and each bears this inscription:
Made of Spanish silver taken from the
Spanish cruiser Crstobal Colon, destroyed
in the naval battle off Santiago de Cuba,
July 3, 1885,
The fineness of the silver used was not
interfered with, and the metal therefore
has almost the hardness Of steel. The
weight of the coins used about 1,500
ounces, and at the present price of silver
it represents a value of $780, but nearly six
times that amount was required to pur-
chase the coin from the government
The presentation of the service will be
made next Wednesday at the home of Theo-
dore Marburg in this city, who, with for
mer Postmaster General James "A. Gary and
Ives Cobb of Washington, comprise the
commission in charge of it's manufacture.

TRANSPORT GRANT IN BAD WAY.
Boilers in Poor Shape and Hull Needs
STRENGTHENING

SAN FRANCISCO, May 3.-The Examiner
says that the transport Grant will not be
able to make the trip to Manila that she
was scheduled for on the 10th of this
month. The Grants boilers have failed to
stand the test to which they were subjected
by Inspector of Boilers John Bulger, and
her hull is weak that it will take good
many new plates and whole lot of general
structure strengthening before she will be
ready to serve as a transport again.
Major Devall, in charge of the transport
service at this port. says the Grant can be
placed in flrst-class condition, and that the
department is willing to pay not more than
10000 for repairs. He attributes the
failure of the vessels boilers to the heavy
work required of them. The Grant has
been in commission since January, 1899,
and has met with no mishap, though she
has been laid off five times for repairs.
The department proposes curtailing the
transport fleet. and it has been decided to
lay off the Meade Sherman. Hancock and
Warren. The Egbert and Rosecrans have
been put up at auction already. This will
leave eight vessels plying between San
Francisco and Manila-the Buford, Crook,
Fitzpatrick, Sheridan, Lawton, Logan,
Grant and Thomas.
