filled.
Especial Correspondence

Washington, Feb. 1.-THE war on
battleships has begun in earnest in the
house. General Isaac Sherwood. MEM
Der Of the house from the Ninth Ohio
district. Is stirring up the fight. He
has begun the circulation of a petition
Tor democratic caucus to take up the
question Of economy In appropriations.
But while It is to be q caucus for this
purpose, 1t looks as II the question of
what to do about battleship construc-
tion were uppermost and as II the pur-
pose back Of the call for a caucus were
to prevent authorization Of construc-
ton Of any new battleships at this ses-
sion or at most to hold the number
down to one.
General Sherwood has enough sig
natures so that q caucus is assured.
One strong reason advanced for 1t Is
that the appropriations threaten this
year to be higher than ever before. that
the Baltimore platform demands econ
omy and that something must be done
to meet this demand. The solution of
the situation. 1t u being urged. can be
found in refusing to authorize the con-
struction Of any new battleships Of the
dreadnaught type.
Public Building Bill Endangered.
The fight may proceed to a point
where the proposed public building bill
will be endangered. But 1t has not yet
reached that stage. That it will de-
velop into an even more bitter con-
troversy than arose last session over
the naval building program now seems
certain. The result Of the fight last
year was authorization Of construction
Of one battleship. In order to make up
for that, the navy department now
wants three authorized and the proba-
bilities are the house naval committee
will favor two. It Is certain the senate
will insist on two. II they could lop
off battleships altogether, the opponents
of the greater navy would score a VIC
tory from their standpoint and at the
same time would hold down appropri-
ations. Many Of the democrats in the
house are uneasy over the stories going
the rounds that the appropriations this
year are going to be bigger than ever.
They think that democratic house
can not afford to have this happen.
Continent 10 Growing. s@@
The sentiments against q bisr naval
building program IL strong in the house
and apparently is growing. One reason
for It is the conviction Of many MEM
Lers that present construction methods
OF the navy department are not up-to-
date Many feel that this government
manages somehow to be few laps
behind Germany and England in con-
struction methods. Moreover there Is
q lot Of criticism under the surface Of
the ordnance. Lack Of adequate auxil-
iaries Is another thing criticised. Some
of the democrats think the navy de-
partment Is due for an overhauling
from stem to stern when they get into
power and they think that 1t would be
Just as we'll therefore to wait until that
is done before going ahead ordering
new battleships.

adversely all tumble upon the sensi-
bihties Of one who reads Of his latest
trouble.
The major general has figured in va
rious affairs Of hardship In the past
few years. He has been, estranged
from his wife and son, Stanton, for a
long time and ON several occasions has
been beset by suits for large sums Of
money which he had borrowed or con-
fairs. Several times recently the great
collection Of war trophies. paintings.
medals, arms, uniforms and other me-
mentos which enrich his house at %
Fifth avenue, New York, have been In
danger of attachment. Each time Mrs.
Sickles has come to the aid Of her hus-
band with substantial sums. The old
warrior had steadfastly renounced
Mrs. Sickles and coldiy turned from
her through the years Of their separa-
ton. A brief reconciliation occurred
when Mrs. Sickles made her last con-
tribution to protect his treasures.
THIS reconciliation proved short lived
because Of the rapid and sensational
developments Of General Siclsles' final
calamities. And therein is focused the
biggest romance of the warriors life.
The charge against him made by the
state of New York technically Is that
he diverted to his own private uses ap-
proximately $4,000 Of funds belonging
to the state monument commission.
He returned part Of this, and the bal
ance of his discrepancy was approx
mately s23, 900 when the attorney gen.
eral lost all patience and issued war
rant for the generals arrest
This was the sorrowfu blot on pa
triot's record and the national sorrow
of his countrymen that the hero Of
Gettysburg should be incarcerated as
a felon behind jail bars, possibly to
die there. A wave Of indignation over
such prospect rose from all over the
country. 1t was quickly apparent that
no one, not even the state officials.
really wished to prosecute the order OF
punishment upon the general, but that
the officials were In peculiar posi-
ton. As Governor Sulzer expressed it,
they had the deepest reverence and ad-
miration for the general, but they could
not officially condone or cover a pub
lie oftense such as. his.
Thus Major General Sickles. the man
who whipped back the valiant hosts
Of the Confederacy under Major Cen
eral Longstreet at Gettysburg and who
lost his leg in that engagement, was
actually arrested. For several min
utes-though it was all technical-the
hero Of the greatest American battle
was actually prisoner.
Sheriff julius Hamburger, actuated BY
personal friendship and the same emo
tons felt by all concerned in the case,
served the warrant of arrest and ac-
cepted the bond of $50. 900 offered by a
surety company in perfunctory man
ner in the generals house. The incl
dent was dramatic in the extreme. It
was, more Of a social affair than q
physical expression by the state Of its
power against q crippled old veteran.
It was In this hour of need that
many personal friends and many prom
inent persons all over the country
came to the front with Offers Of fnau.

BURIED MINER is
TAKEN OUT ALIVE
Imprisoned In CO|Iiery for More
Than a Week.

Centralia, Pa, Oct. 6.-Thomas To-
shesky has been released from prison
in the Mammoth vein of the Continen-
tai colliery OF the Lehigh Valley Coal
company near here.
The coal barrier that held him pris-
oner since noon a week ago Friday
was broken down and he was led to
the surface to be united with his wife
and children.
The light of the sun coming over
the mountain dazzled Toshesky and
he was unable to see. This condition
was anticipated and blue eyeglasses
were placed over his eyes. When his
wife saw her husband she fell to the
ground and uttered a prayer OF
Thanksgiving. There was a cheer
and much handshaking.
After Toshesky was examined by
physicians he was placed In an auto
mobile and rushed home. The ply
sicians said his condition was much
better than expected. His hair was
slightly tinged with gray as a result
of his experience.
During the time Toshesky was en-
tombed he succeeded in digging
three and one-half feet toward the
men who were battling to rescue him.
