Secretary MYERS concentrations
in respect of ia. Marin" Corps were a
! logical il not the in-v ltabl" result OF the
naval court OF inquiry of last spring.
! That court was assembled 10 investigate
n deplorablr condition INTO which the
Marine Iory- had fallen, condition
expressing itself IN INSTRUMENTATION,
intestine blcSering and a hardly con-
Cealei paralysis of the discipline and
the usefulness of the entire CORPS. The
conclusion reached by the retired Rear
AdmIrals who constituted the tribunal
was thar the whole complication arose
from the circumstances of the casa and
not necessarily from any inherent faults
IN the characters or defects in the pro-
iessional attainments OF the officers con-
cerned
The verdict practically arraIgned a
system under which the Commandment
was to serve until the age of retirement
and the heads OF the different stan di-
visions -quartermaster. inspector and
judge advocate, NC became permanent
residents of Washington. II was an
arrangement wholly obsolete. Similar
arrangements in every other military
branch Of the public service had long
since been found 10 be- impossible. and

urged their abolition IN the case of the

mendatlons The stan officers were dis

ton that will install a new system and
make IL automatically continuous with

pose of Secretaries who come and go
and may or may not he intelli gently vigi-
liant Thus Secretary MEIER recon-

Humane Societies and Live Stock As
soeiations Looking for Better Con-
diticns Regarding Shipment Of Live
Stock - 100000 Killed in Transit
Yearly.
(Rv Associated PfeSS.l


Washington, Feb. 11.-Represen-
tatives of humane societies and live
stock associations were before the
house committee on interstate and
foreign commerce today protesting
against the manner in which the rail-
roads handle live stock enroute to
market.
One witness declared that 100, 900
head of stock were taken from the
cars dead every year as result of
inhumane handling. The loss in
money was estimated at millions in
the killing of the stock and in the
shrinkage in weight.
A bill was before the committee
fixing a minimum rate Of 16 miles an
hour, at which the railroads may
transport livestock shipments. Ship
pers told the committee that fire.
quently the rate was less than two
miles an hour on an average.

Washington, Feb. 11.-Secretary OF
State Knox was subjected to some
very caustic criticism in the house to-
day by Representative Francis Bur.
ton Harrison of New York, during
consideration of the diplomatic and
consular appropriation bill.
Many bold strokes in diplomacy,
Mr.. Harrison were justified only by
their success, as in the instance of
President Cleveland's Venezuelan
message. But that has not been the
case with some of the bold strokes
of diplomacy made by Secretary
Knox, he said. The Nicaraguan en-
broglio,. the Manchurian railway mat
ter and the secretary'sz declaration
that he would make It his duty to
see that democratic forms Of gov
ernment should he maintained in
Central America, ht said. were ex-
amples Of failure in the diplomacy Of
Mr.. Knox.
