Sheridan Has Been Raised.

Washington, ID. c., Sept 24.-Secre'
tary Bonaparte does not propose TO
have any trouble with congress at the
next session through failing to give all
the information desired in that quar-
ter. Last year the critism was
made that the naval appropriations
were expended in directions not au-
thorized, or at least not contemplated,
by the law or the lawmakers. There
was a diversion of the funds, 1t was
asserted. Secretary Bonaparte found
upon inquiry that there had been no
departure from the practice OF years,
and that, in view of the general terms
or the law, 1t was possible to do al
that had been done without in any
sense violating the statutes. In the
preparation Of the estimates this year
however, he is going 10 include the
specific items 10 which the eNpendi-
ture Of the funds appropriated may be
applied.
There will be as restricted employ
ment of the appropriations as possible,

chance for the critics of the admins

allotted 10 naval uses have been di.

Washington, Sept. 24.-Official

ficials, and there was a marked
change in the interest from Saturday.
when it was thought intervention was
near at hand.
The prospect of an amicable ad-
justment does not deter officials here
from continuing preparations which
had been making to land forces in
Cuba if it becomes necessary. The
naval colliers Leonidas at Lambert's
Point and Hannibal at Newport News,
will sail in the course of a day or two
for Havana, loaded with coal for the
naval vessels now in that harbor, and
with the dispatch of these colliers it
is expected that the naval officials
feel that all that can be done at this
stage in preparation for eventualities
will have been accomplished.

NEWS OF CONDEMNATION

governor of this city, has received
letter warning him that he had been
condemned to death by the revolu-
tiOnists. The circumstances of the
warning are quite interesting and ro-
mantle The general is on terms of
close intimacy with his chief of staff,
Councillor Jatscheffsky. Both men are
ardent admirers of the fair sex. A
few days ago the general received
a scented note in a lady's handwrit-
ing, requesting him to hand an en-
closed letter to his chief of staff. The
writer explained that she feared the
note, If sent direct, might fall into
the hands of some lady of addressee's
household. The general suspecting
love intrigue, was much amused,
and Immediately sent for Jatscheffsky.
who, strange TO say, reported having
received an exactly similar letter with
an enclosure for Gen. Skalon. The
two enclosures were then compared.
They were identical, and announced
that sentence of death had been pro
nounced upon them both by the revo-
lutionary committee.
