SECRETARY MooDY's CRUISE.
Will Leave Next Monday and Board
the Dolphin at Charleston.

Now that Congress is out of the way Sec
retary Moody has concluded to take his
long g-deferred trip to the West Indies for
the benefit of his health, which has not
been entirely satisfactory since the runaway
accident at Annapolis, in which he sus-
tained a slight conclusion OF the brain.
Business and pleasure will be combined on
the trip, and the Secretary expects to re-
ceive benefit from life in the open air and
the fresh sea breezes.
According to present plans, Secretary
Moody and party will leave here next Mon
day and proceed by rail to Charleston,
where they will board the dispatch boat
Dolphin. and then make a cruise in the
West Indies. The itinerary includes visits
to Bahia Honda and Guantanamo. recently
ceded to the United States by Cuba for the
establishment of naval stations; Havana
the Cuban capital, and San Juan, the seat
of government in Porto Rico. The trip
will consume a month or six weeks, accord
ing to the time devoted to the places visited.
The Secretary will be accompanied by his
private secretary, Mr.. Fred L. Fishback,
and will have a number of distinguished
guests, including Postmaster General Payne,
Senator Proctor of Vermont Representa-
tive Cannon Of Illinois, Representative GIL
lett of Massachusetts, Judge Dunbar of
Massachusetts, and Mr.. J. H. Pearl Of Mas
sachusetts, Mr.. Moody's law partner.
The Dolphin is now at Norfolk, where she
was fitted out especially for the trip to the
West Indies, and is now reported to be in
first-cass condition. She received thor
ough overhauling and was provided with
new dynamos and other equipment, prob
ably the most important being set OF Ice
machines for refrigerating purposes The
Dolphin will go to Charleston in day or
two and await the party at that port.

WILL MEET TONIGHT.
Conference of the Steering Committee
of the Senate

The steering committee of the republi-
cans Of the Senate will hold a meeting to-
night to outline program of legislative
action for the special session upon which
the Senate entered today. The committee
on foreign relations will hold a meeting to-
morrow TO report back to the Senate the
Cuban treaty and the Panama treaty,
which were referred to the committee upon
the assembling of the special session.
The question to be determined first is
which treaty shall be first considered. The
Panama treaty was under consideration
when Congress adjourned, but 1t is said
there may be reasons why the Cuban treaty
should take precedence. That question will
be determined by the steering committee
and the committee on foreign relations.
The convention with Cuba expires March
81, and while, of course, 1t can be renewed,
as the last renewal was made. the admin
istration prefers that the treaty should be
ratified in time. 1t is said that In execu-
tive session reasons VIII be presented in
support Of the administrations desire,
which ought to. be satisfactory unless there
is determination to filibuster the treaty to
death.

Mr.. Purdy Strongly Indorsed.
BARRED FROM THE MAILS.
Fraud Orders Issued Regarding Matri-
monial Agencies.

The Postmaster General has signed fraud
orders against Mrs. r. c. Evans of Gin
cinnati. Ohio. and the American Directory
Company Of Grant Works, ILL.,. for operat-
ing matrimonial agencies which are all
legged to be fraudulent. In the case of Mrs.
Evans the officials of the department assert
that she advertised that widow worth
10000 would like to meet desirable bach
elor, ''object, matrimony." When this ad-
vertisement was answered Mrs. Evans IL
alleged to have sent lot Of literature in
which she set forth that she was operating
a matrimonial bureau and that she would
be glad to have the person who saw the ac-
vertisement Join. The fee for gentlemen
was placed at IS and that for ladies at &2.
On receipt Of the sum named Mrs. Evans
would place the newly made member in cor
respondence with any number Of persons
inserted the advertisement first answered.
The Post Office Department claims that the
victim is given the post office address OF
the lady or gentleman who desires to mar
ry and is encouraged to correspond The
department further asserts that the address
is an address simply, and usually the let
ters received for 1t are forwarded to the
agency at the request OF the agent. In
this, the business Is fraud. ii is alleged.
and consequently the organizers Of II are
barred from the use OF the mails.
The Illinois concern Is said to be one OF
the matrimonial bureaus which were sup
pressed by the Chicago authorities and
which Immediately started operations at
Grant Works. short distance from Chi.
cago. The method of doing business by
this concern is the same as that pursued
by Mrs. Evans.

SALvADOR's PROTEST.
Will Not Effect Reopening Of the Ar
s-g~s= bitratiou,

The Salvadorian brief in the nature Of
protest against the award OF the arbitra-
ton in the case of II Triunfo has been
scanned at the State Department, and it has
been decided that 1t does not affect the
issue. The proposition to reopen an arbi-
tration was never seriously considered by
the United States government, although the
Salvadorian government has been making
strenuous efforts to that end. First it Sc
cured the publication in Europe of an
article based upon statement of facts pre-
pared by Senior Zaldibar, which statement is
challenged at every point by our own gov
ernment. and now 1t has caused to be pre-
pared brief by Professor Won Barr of
Goetingen University in Germany which
has been laid before the State Department.
1t is reported that in anticipation of the
refusal of the United States to allow the
arbitrator's award to be questioned the Sal
vadorfan government has already taken the
Necessary steps to provide the funds to meet
the award. namely, $780, 900, the plan being
to allot to some financiers or to II Triunfo
per cent of the Salvadorian customs reye-
nues, which it Is estimated would amount
to ABOUT $4,000 annually and would thus
discharge the debt in five years.

CoNFESSES TO A MURDER.
Chicago Bridewell Prisoner duplicates
Others in His Crimes,

CHICAGO, March 5.-Murder committed
by a band of thieves. who drugged and rob-
bed strangers nightly in West Madison
street saloons, and which has been conceal
ed for three years, has been made known
to the police by John Lyons, one Of the
band. Lyons, who is said to be dying of
consumption, says his conscience gave him
no rest and that he will find peace in death.
Geo. Howard. a printer, was the victim,
and on the statements made by Lyons
charges Of murder have been placed against
Joseph Moore and James Bray, who are
under arrest in st. Louis.
So many were the robberies that Lyons
Is said to be unable to recall the times or
places, and so accustomed were the men
to dealing out choral to their intended
victims that the danger of fatal results
were lost to them until Howard failed to
recover. and the possibilities Of the gallows
frightened the robbers from their haunts.
Howard was drugged in a saloon In West
Madison street on the night of March %,
1900. After he fell in a stupor they carried
him to the walk in front Of the place. where
they robbed him of ST and rings. He was
picked up by the police and died in the
patrol wagon. r.
Lyons was serving out fine in the Bride
well when his failing health quickened his
conscience, and he made a confession on
the strength of which the search for Moore
and Bray was commenced.

TROOPS TO STAY IN CUBA.
Eight Companies Of Coast Artillery to
Be Stationed at Naval Stations.

It is again stated by the authorities here
that there is no present intention Of remov-
ing from Cuba the American troops now
stationed there. This statement is drawn
forth by the criticism passed in the Cuban
senate yesterday in connection with the de-
bate on the reciprocity treaty, upon the
continued presence of United States troops
in the island. 1t is now admitted that the
United States has always intended to keep
a few men at arms, either soldiers or ma
rines, in Cuba indefinitely. 1t is explained
however, that this is for no purpose of
overawing or coercing the Cubans, but
with the simple purpose of taking care of
the naval stations which the United States
has acquired at Guantanamo and Bahia
Honda.
Therefore the present United States mil
ftary forces will probably be retained where
they are until the coaling stations named
are established, and then they will be re-
moved to those two points. The entire
strength of this force is about 800 men,
consisting Of the 18th, 18th, 10Th, Goth, 21st,
22d, 23d and 24th companies of Coast Ar
tillery. under. command Of Col William l..
Haskin, Artillery Corps. Four companies
are at Havana, two at Santiago and two at
Cienfuegos.

ENGLISH FOOD SUPPLY
Royal Commission Advocated
to Make Inquiries.
MR.. BALFOUR EXPLAINS
THINKS IT MERELY MATTER OF
COST.
He is Against the Establishment of
Government Machinery to Inter
fere With Commerce.
MIR. BALFOUR EXPLAINS

LONDON, March 5.-Replying to large
and influential deputation which visited the
foreign Office today to urge the appoint
ment Of a royal commission to inquire into
the question of the security of the food
supply of Great Britain in time of war
Premier Balfour expressed the opinion that
the danger Great Britain had to meet was
not the exclusion of grain and the raw ma
terials necessary for the country's ma
tional existence, but the cost of introduc-
ing them. The country could get all II
wanted II 1t was prepared to pay the price
and the question Of price was ultimately
question of insurance. Sufficient stress
was not laid upon the part neutrals would
play in the event of a war. There would
be more than sufficient neutral shipping to
supply Great Britain with grain, but not
with raw materials.
Danger From Corner in Wheat.
AS to the danger Of wheat corner, y
the premier was unable to estimate the
magnitude Of the danger. but the country
was exposed to this in time of peace as
much as in war time.
He admitted that an inquiry into the mat
ter was advisable, as it would tend to allay
some unfounded fears as well as show that
some Of the difficulties of the situation
could not be wholly removed.
Mr.. Balfour added that he thought the in
Quiry ought to include the question Of in
surance. the conditions of modern maritime
warfare, the methods by which commerce
could be protected and destroyed, and the
amount Of the actual grain supply of the
country He hoped. however, that nothing
would be done to establish government ma
chinery which would injure the national
commercial machinery by which Great Brit
ain was supplied.

ROUGH WEATHER ON ATLANTIC.
Incoming Liners Report Five Days of
Storm on Voyage.

NEW YORK, March 5.-Several Atlantic
liners reached port today, all bringing re-
ports of an unusually rough crossing. The
big ship Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse, which
arrived off the Hook last night, made her
way up to quarantine when the fog light
ened today, showing many evidences of her
battle with big waves. For the first five
days Of her voyage she experienced gales
Of hurricane force. The gale began from
the southwest, accompanied by hail squalls
which increased in violence. The Kaiser
Wilhelm bucked the big seas under reduced
speed for five days, her average on the
whole run being 1922 knots. Her tunnels
were crusted with salt and the seas were so
heavy that they boarded her decks and
smashed five lifeboats.
The Oceanic met equally as bad weather
She came into quarantine with a story Of
a voyage of high winds and tremendous
seas, and like the Kaiser Wilhelm, was
compelled to go under reduced speed for
five days.
