appearances indicate further delay of any de-
cisve action on the part of the Administration

The steam frigate Powhatan hauled up to
the Brooklyn Navy Yard on Thursday. Her ar
rival was telegraphed to the authorities in
Washington, who have commanded her to re-
main as she is for the present. Neither Of
fcers nor men have been detached, and it is
thought she will remain in commission. Not
having been overhauled in four years since
she was fitted out for the East Indies, she can
not adviSedly be left long in active service.
The Powhatan has been brought home in pur
suance Of the policy Of establishing coast
guard which was resolved upon by the late
Administration and will be adhered TO by the
present. The advices by this arrival from the
home squadron are interesting. Three ships of
war only will be left in the Gulf Of Mexico until
political affairs become more settled here
The Macedonian is the only new commissioned
ship to remain out. No officers have been
gazetted to replace those whose designations
from the fleet have been rendered. The craft
that left for Norfolk had no provisions or

Background

wv GUILD Fort Sumter be reinforced
w or evacuated? This was the queS-
ton that burned in the minds of all yet
could be answered by except pos
sibly President Lincoln himself RumOrs
and reports, mostly vague or conflicting,
indicated first one course, then the
other. Readers Of The Star however, got
strong impression that something
serious was going on in New York har-
Dor 1t seemed to bear directly on the
Sumter crisis. From a New York news
paper was cleaned a detailed account
that lacked only conclusion.
From The Evening Star, Saturday March I6, 1861:
The Naval Fleet at Brooklyn.
The New York Post of last evening says
there is larger naval force at that point than
was ever on any one squadron since the Organi-
cation of the United States Navy. II exceeds
the Paraguay Expedition by seven in the num-
berSof vessels, and by over a thousand in the
number of men. THE Paraguay Expedition Of
1858 consisted Of 10 ships and 100 men sent up
the La Plata RiueT to ASuncion to extract an
apoIO9y and repGrations from Paraguay for kill
ing an American seaman during surveying
cruise three years betore.l 1t consists of more
ships than the channel fleet Of England, al
though of only half as many men. Every vessel
on the list is in commission and manned, ex-
cept the cambridge and Dolphin. which, as
well as the brig Perry could be got ready for
sea in few days. The revenue craft included
a>N 10 -r,lA 0fkh o
Navy, and may be considered belonging to it.
About half dozen men-Of-war could be added
to the fleet In an engagement, five -. ships
are all that could be put in line Of battle.

Tmisian Waters Yield Precious Catch!!

The waters near the little-known Tuni-
sian town of Mahdia, one of the most
ancient seats of archaeological discovery,
have yielded enough treasures to fill six
rooms at the famous Bardo Museum.
More than 1000 years ago, when Car
thage was the center of Mediterranean
maritime commerce, Tunisia had devel-
oped thriving sponge and coral fishing
industry. AS the 900-mile Tunisian coast
line, which varies greatly in form and
depth, began to take its toll of heavy-laden
merchant vessels, Tunisian underwater
fishermen found their waters becoming
even more profitable.
Perhaps the most important discovery
made off the coast of Mahdia in recent
times was an ancient ship which the
sponge fishermen found three miles out
and at a depth of 10 fathoms. This find
spanked organized expeditions in search
of sunken treasures. Five such expeditions
We're launched between 1903 and 1918.
One of the ancient vessels which was
discovered in this area contained numerous
pieces of Greek art which probably came
from the pillage of Athens by Sylla during
the End century BIC. This find has been
described by archaeological scholars as
second only to the discoveries made at
Pompei.

expected continuance of the ma
TONS rapid population growth
spurred on by dynamic economy
The experts predict these two fac
tors will stimulate a SO percent in
crease in energy needs by 1875. The
glimpse also assumes that the
American standard of living will
continue going up and that there
will be an increase in the energy
demands per person.
Electric power utilities are GOALS
most faithful customer, so any
boom in their business usually
means an economic bonus for the
coal industry. Students of the in
dustry feel coal also will benefit
comparatively from its vast re-
serves and cost-saving accent on
automation.
Research Urged
A technical advisory committee
suggested this week that a new
federal coal research program con
centrate on discovering uses for
coal as liquid and gaseous fuel.
1t was felt these areas offered
coal the best chance of strengthen
ing its economic position.
Both fields presently are domi-
mated by oil and natural gas which
has cornered the energy market
once held by coal.
The coal research program was
set up earlier this year in the In
terror department by legislation
which also directed that an adviso-
ry group be named to suggest
direction and emphasis.
1t was recommended that the
money and brains in coal re-
search concentrate on liquid and
gaseous fuels. Coal presently can
be converted into a liquid or gas
but so far the process has not been
economical or efficient enough to
make it competitive with oil or
natural gas.

One year has passed dear father,
Since you were called away.
How well we do remember.

And courage to meet the blow,
But what it meant to lose you.
The world will never know.

And speak of how you died

Before you closed your eyes
For all of us you did your best
