Secretary Shaw is to take the
stump in Ohio and also make few
speeches in Kentucky. The Secretary
is not only a good speaker, but he
backs up his statements with sound
facts and presents them in such a
manner as to be thoroughly convinc-
ing-a fact that the Democracy
thoroughly understands. With that
in mind there will be a general howl
from the Democratic press about the
Secretary's abandonment of official
duties to engage in politics. 1t can
be depended upon however, that even
if he is putting a little time in politics
the Secretary has his financial eye
upon all affairs connected with the
responsible position he holds as Sec
rotary of the Treasury.

Scarcity of Labor on western farms
has resulted in cutting down the size
of the crops in many sections. Mr..
Brigham assistant Secretary OF
Agriculture, states that farmers have
been embarrassed by lack of help
this year to an extent far greater
than the people of the east have any
idea of. The scarcity is due largely
to the great activity in other enter
prises. Building operations of a
number of kinds are under way
throughout the Middle West, such as
the construction of electric railroads,
bridges roads and other improve
ments. This has created a demand
for labor at wages higher than those
paid on the farm. The result has been
that the men who usually harvest the
crop are now working on the roads
and in the cities.

Rain began falling early Sunday morning
and continued throughout the day and

began to fall, and at 10 o'clock the rain
turned into sleet. which fell without cessa-
ton until o'clock this morning.
Reports from Mississippi Arkansas. Okla

ATTACHMENT FOR VANDERBILT.
Failed to Appear When Gambling
House Case Was Called.

NEW YORK, February 16.-At the re-
quest OF counsel for the defendant the trial
of David w. Bucklin, indicted on the
charge of keeping a gambling house, was
today adjourned for one week by Justice
Herrick.
Counsel for Edward Wasserman asked
the court to make an order that his client
be examined by deposition that he might
keep important engagements in Europe.
Justice Herrick said he did not have any
power to make such an order.
District Attorney Jerome then asked that
the doors be closed until he reserve the
subpoena showing the new date for the
trial. The doors were not closed, but the
court clerk called these names:
H. Archibal Pell, Clarence Luce, w. A.

assistant, to issue attachments at once for
the Others and il they were not answered
at once to take the matter to the grand
jury.
The district attorney said if the county
detectives fail to secure the attendance in

not answer to their names he would pre-

One Of the most interesting legislative

that such a rule would be obstinately

entirely problematical whether sufficient
votes can be rallied to pass 1t. The first
special meeting is to be held tomorrow and
the bill will either be reported favorably to
the House or a record vote taken, which
will demonstrate the impossibility Of favor

The friends Of the bill say today that they
want Its fate settled, and will put the ques-

senatorial forces has been brought to bear
upon members Of the House in favor CT the

NEW DIVISION CREATED,
Pension Commissioner Ware Carries
Out His Contemplated Plan.


Commissioner of Pensions Ware has
abolished the middle division of the pension
bureau and created new division, to be
known as the army division, to take effect
March next. The personnel Of the middle
division will be distributed among the other
divisions to bring the work of the latter up
to date. The middle division has had juris-
diction of pension cases from Ohio, Penn
sylvania and Michigan, and it's work has
been kept up to date for some time past.
It's chief, FranA A. Warfieid, is appointed
chief of the new division. The commis-
sioners order says:
ITO the eastern division Is added all
claims on account of service in the war of
the rebellion in organizations belonging to
the states of Pennsylvania and Michigan.
To the western division is added all claims
on account of service in the war of the re-
bellion in organizations belonging to Ohio.
To the new division will be assigned those
cases now in the old war and navy division
and those hereafter filed based on service
rendered in the regular army during the
war of the rebellion on account of dis
abilities incurred in the service since March
4, 1861, and other miscellaneous organiza-
tions, now considered by the old war and
navy division, and those Of volunteers for
service in the with Spain and the
Philippines and other instructions. The
old war and navy division will continue to
have the settlement of all claims on account
of service rendered prior to March T. 1861,
and on account of service at any time in
the navy"

MAY GO TO EUROPE
PROPOSED LONG CRUISE OF
NORTH ATLANTIC SQUADRON.
Will Depend Upon Perfection of Gun
Work During the Coming
Three Months.

Upon the result Of three months hard
work at target practice about to be under
taken will depend the summer plans of the
North Atlantic squadron. The fleet Is
working out an elaborate and progressive
set Of exercises and drills devised by the
general board the purpose being to famil-
iarize the officers with naval movements on
a larger scale than has ever before been
attempted in the United States navy. The
fleet has worked through the program step
by step, and the three months program
now in execution will determine whether or
not the gun work Of the ships has been so
far perfected as to warrant the beginning
of the next phase, namely, long-distance
cruising in fleet formation. If that work
should be undertaken next summer, which
Secretary Moody says is by no means GER
tain, the North Atlantic squadron will sail
directly for the Azores, and II the COM
bined movement is successful up to that
point, the ships may go on as far as Lisbon,
but 1t IS not intended that they shall
visit northern Europe under any con-
ditions. 7''-sss ID"
The squadron, consists Of seven battle
ships. majority of them fine, new vessels,
each more powerful by far than those un-
der Admiral Sampsons command.
When the squadron goes to Europe 1t will
consist Of the Kearsarge (iagship), the Ala
bana, the Illinois, the Maine the Iowa. the
Massachusetts, and the Indiana. The three
last named were in the Spanish American
war. The Maine Is brand new, the Illinois
has been in commission less than a year
and the Kearsarge and the Alabama have
been built since the war with Spain.
The sending Of the home fleet abroad is
an unusual proceeding, and will undoubt-
edly evoke much interest in Europe. At
the Navy Department it is stated that the
cruise is contemplated only as a test of the
cruising efficiency Of the fleet, which, it is
planned, will rendezvous at Norfolk in May,
preparatory to crossing the Atlantic. The
present commander-in-chtef of the North
Atlantic squadron, Rear Admiral F. J.
Higginson, probably will then be succeeded
by Rear Admiral Albert S. Barker, now
commandant of the New York navy yard.
