BY FAR THE
WORST OF ALL
BREMERTON'S THUGS AND HOW
THEY DO UP SAILORS ON SHORE
LEAVE.

WASHINGTON, January 7.-Senator
Foster of Washington having urged the
Navy Department to send ships to
Bremerton Navy Yard, this morning
obtained a report from Captain j. G.
Eaton, who commanded the battle-ship
Oregon from February to August OF
last year, during which time the Ore
gon was atBremerton being overhauled
His report is dated January 9th and
reads in part as follows:
Shortly after my arrival the com
mandant of the station, then Captain
w. 7. Burwell, issued an order that all
men going on liberty should be re-
quired to avoid the town of Bremerton,
march out of the navy yard by the
Charleston gate and take steamer from
Charleston to Seattle. This order was
issued because men going on liberty
were repeatedly drugged or made drunk
and robbed on the main street of Brem-
erton while on their way to the Seattle
steamers
Finding their prey escaping them,
the sharks who had congregated in
Bremerton sought other waters, and
for time, the conditions of affairs i'm
proving the order to avoid BremertOn
was abrogated.
80 open and dangerous had these at
tempts upon bluejackets become that 1
have known liberty men to be picked
up insensible and moneyiess on the

Yard gate, within twenty minutes of

living by either enticing men-of-WaT's

GOVERNMENT MAY
USE OIL FOR FUEL
OFFICIALS EXAMINE THE OIL
BURNING APPARATUS ON THE
STEAMER ENTERPRISE.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. S.-An eX-
animation of the oil-burning apparatus
on the steamer Enterprise was made
yesterday by a board of Government
officials, and a report on their conclu-
sions will be made to Washington. The
officials were Colonel T. A. Hamburg of
the Lighthouse service; Captain o. c.
Hamlet of the Revenue service, and
Captain j. b. Milton of the Hydro
graphic Office. John F. Green of the
Navy, who is a graduate Of the Royal
Naval Institute of Marine Engineering
of Holland, was also with the party
as a representative of Rear Admiral
Henry Glass, commandant at Yerba
Buena Island.
The steamer Enterprise was the first
ocean-going steamship to use oil for
fuel, and her experience has been
watched with more than ordinary in
terest by representatives of the Cow
eminent, who are under instructions to
report fully upon the practicability of
using Oil, instead of coal for fuel. Yes
terdays examination of the apparatus
on the Enterprise, while in the line Of
their duty, was entirely informal, but
the report that will be forwarded to
Washington will in all probability
highly approve of the methods in use
on the Enterprise, which {, re the en-
bodiment of a device that was invented
in this city, and is generally consider
ed to be the most satisfactory manner
of utilizing crude oil for fuel on steam
ships.
1T is the best method I have yet
seem" said Green, after the eXamina-
! ton. THE Government will no doubt
! finally adopt some system of oil-burn-
/ ing, but is waiting for a perfection of
| the various methods in vogue. This
system on the Enterprise does away
with the danger from gas accumula-
ton, where there is d superheater, for
the reason that the superheater in this
vessel is in her furnaces, and the SUI
IperfuOus gases are consumed, much
on the principle of q Welsback light"
1t is understood that Green will recon-
mend the adoption of the system on
Yerba Buena Island.
The Enterprise, on her last trip to
Hilo, made remarkably good time, both
going and returning, the improvement
being credited to the new system of
oil burning in the furnaces. The fronts
of the boilers as well as the burners
are specially constructed for the use
of oil under the new system.
