TO ATTEND CORONATION.
Special Envoy May Be Sent to Nor
way.

The State Department is confronted with
the question as to whether or not 1t will
be obliged to name a special representative
of the government and people of the United
States to attend the approaching coronation
of Haakop as king Of Norway. In the
ordinary course, the United States minister
to Norway would be charged. under a spe-
cial commission, to undertake that repre-
sentation. but far there Is no such Of
fetal Provision is made in the pending
diplomatic and consular appropriation bill
for the creation of ministry and legation
at Christiania, and 1t has been formally an
nounced that as soon the Office is cre-
ated Mr.. II. II. D. Peirce, at present third
assistant secretary of state. will be nomi-
mated for the post. But the date for the
ceremony Is near at hand. and 1t Is doubt
full whether not that enactment and
the necessary confirmation OF the nomina-
ton can be had before the middle of June,
which would be too late. Therefore, the
department has been canvassing some
names, and indeed 1t is understood that a
special appointment as minister for that
occasion has been rendered to one person
tentatively.

OFFICERS TO BE ADmoN1sHEp.
Responsible for Collision Between the
Porpoise and the Nina.

There will be no further proceedings IN
the case OF the collision between tho naval
submarine Porpolse and the tender Nina
In Narragansett bay few weeks ago. but
the officers responsible will be strongly ad-
monished by the Navy Department to be
more careful In the future. The subma-
rine was commanded by Lieut.. Charles +.
Nelson and the Nina by Boatswain Timo-
thy Sullivan. 1t is gathered that after
diving with the intent to discharge a tor
pedo the submarine varied It's course with
out notifying the tender. with the result
that the Porpo!se came up under the bot
tom OF the Nina with bump. denting IN
some plates and causing leak. and DAM
total damage was slight. bur the circum-
stances were believed to justify the writ
ing OF strong letter on the subject by the
department.

Charges Against Him - The
Chandler Correspondence.
HINTS AT THE WHITE HOUSE

Senator Bailey today again took up the
contention that has during the last couple
of days embroied the Senate and given
rise to much extreme language rejecting
personally upon various persons. His action
was generally looked for, as 1t was known
that he would reply to newspaper state
ments reiterated today and which he de-
nounced yesterday by branding them
'lies."
The Senate was all expectancy when the
senator from Texas arose, as 1t was not
known to what extent he might go in pre-
senting statements made about him. But
he was contained in his manner at all
times, and while using strong language now
and then he was picture of deliberation.
The Senate was well filed both on the
floor and in the galleries when Mr.. Bailey
arose. He referred to the events In the
Senate of yesterday, and then read corre-
epondnce with Senator Chandler as follows:
