MILLIONS FIIII DEFENSE

Mr. Gannon Introduces a. Bill
Appropriating $50,000,000. -

 

WILL‘BE PASSED AT ONCE

Result of a Conference with the President
at the \Vhite House—House Passes the
Bill Providing for Two Additional Beg-
iments of Artillery.

Washington. March 8.—Cha.lrman

Cannon, of the Appropriations Com-
mittee, yesterday introduced a bill en—

titled “Making Appropriations for the.

National Defense." It is as follows:
“That there is hereby appropriated
out of any money in the Treasury not
otherwise appropriated for the national
defense and for each and every purpose
connected therewith, to be expended at
the discretion of the President, and to

remain available until June 30, 1899,:

fifty million dollars.”

It was referred to the Committee on
Appropriations.

Mr. Cannon had an interview with
the President in the morning, and at
its conclusion went to the Capitol and
called a special meeting of the Appro-
priations Committee. After this meet—
lng Mr. Cannon introduced the National
Defense bill in the House.

The bill will be passed at once. This
can be stated on the highest authority.

ARTILLERY BILL PASSED.

House Adopts the Measure to Create Two
Additional Regiments.

Washington, March 8.——The House
immediately on meeting yesterday
took up the bill providing for two ad—
ditional artillery regiments, and passed
it almost unanimously on a viva voce
vote.

There seemed to be but three votes
in the negative: Cox, of Tennessee;
Jones, of Virginia; and one other who
could not be located.

The debate developed nothing excit-
ing. but there was a, great outburst of
enthusiasm when Mr. Hay (Dem., Va.)
declared that he stood ready to vote
for any measure to prepare for the
emergency which confronted the coun-
‘try. .

“‘13an Congress assembled there was
evidence of general excitement im-
mediately after the reading of the
journal in the house Chairman Hull,
of the Military Committee, moved to
take up the Artillery bill. Republicans,
Democrats and Populists acquiesced.
It required a two-third vote to pass the
bill under suspension of the rules.

No effort was made to obstruct ac—
tion, though there was a desire to ex-
tend debate beyond the forty minutes
allowed under the rules, the purpose
apparently being to give members an
opportunity to go on record for the
measure as an emergency proposition.
There was no extension of time, how-
ever. Neither Mr. Bailey nor any lead-
«ing democrat uttered a word of op-
position.

To Mr. Cox, of Tennessee, was
assigned the twenty minutes’ time of
the opposition, and that proved to be
as much as he could consume. He op-
posed the bill in a ten—minute speech,
which was interrupted by Democrats,
and then yielded ten minutes to Jones,
of Virginia, who spoke against the
measure. This ended the opposition.

MONEY WILL BE PROVIDED.

Senator Hale Advises Secretary Long to
Buy Warships if Necessary.

“’asliington, March 8.—Senator Hale,

chairman of the Senate Committee on
Naval Affairs, and also chairman of
the Sub-Committee on Appropriations,
to consider the naval bill. said yester-
day that he had suggested to Secretary
Long, of the Navy Department, the ad-
visability of making the purchase of
any supplies which might be consid-
ered necessary in the event of a war
with the understanding that the funds
for them would be provided by Con-
gress.
”The Senator said that large quanti-
ties of coal had already been practi—
cally secured for shipment to Key
West, and he had no doubt that the
Secretary would extend the policy by
contracting for warships and ammuni-
tion if necessary.
, “I hardly think, however,” he (said,
“that it will become necessary, for I
hope that there will be no war. Fur-
thermore, I doubt the report that Spain
has purchased any warships. But be
that as it may, no precaution will be
left untaken by this country to insure
a proper protection of gur interests in
any contingency. 1 have agreed with
those who have advised against special
appropriation bills for the purchase of
supplies, because I think the Secretary
has sufficient authority now to make
any purchase necessary, and if he finds
it necessary to expend more funds
than he has these will be supplied in
the general deficiency or some other
general appropriation bill.”

ACTIVITY AT DOVER.

A Train-Load of Ammunition
from There Every Night.

New York,’ March 8.——The Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western Railroad
during the last week has shipped over
50,000 tons of gunpowder and ammuni-
tion from the Government storehouses
at Dover, N. J. Secret orders have
been received from Washington for the
railroad to place a. special train at the
disposal of the Government to carry
ammunition from Dover in the event
of war. It is proposed to sidetrack
cars at Dover and run them direct to
the Government stores, which are lo-
cated about three miles from Dover.

Orders have also been received by the
Government officials at Dover not to
allow anybody to visit the Government
reservation until further orders. 'A
Government officer is on guard at the
gate, both day and night, and inter-
cepts all intruders. '

How much powder and ammunition
is stored at Dover is known only to the
officials of the War. Department, in
Washington. , There are twelve store
houses on the reservation that are all
filled .with‘gunpowder, dynamite, pro-
jectiles and ammunition. During thei
past week a. train load of ammunition
has left Dover each nlght of the week.
Upon its arrival in Hoboken the am—
munition was placed on Government
lighters and taken to the coast forti»

" CHAMP HINTS AT BUNCO GAME.
Says Speculators “Hunt to Unload Chew:
Vessels on the United States.

Philadelphia, March 8.-—Charles H.
Cramp, head of the shipbuilding firm
of Cramp & Sons, declares that the
widespread talk of Spain buying war-
ships abroad and the obtaining of op-
tions on these ships by the United
States is part of a scheme instigated
by a syndicate of adventurers. Their
purpose, he said,.is to secure big com—
missions by helping English and Ger-
man ship builders to unload on this
Government many unsalable vessels

built either on spectulation or by con- ‘

tract with minor governments that are
not able to. pay for them.

Said Mr. Cramp: “The total valua-
tion of the ships involved in the deal is
about $15,000,000. The commissions
which the speculative syndicate would
receive for disposing of them to the
United States would be about 15 per
cent. of the selling price, or, say, $2,—
225,000 on the whole lot.”

Mr. Cramp said the syndicate is com-
posed of an Anglo-American manufac—

'turing concern in England, one of the

most noted contract brokers in New
York city and certain concerns engaged
in the manufacture of ordnance mate-
rials in this country and abroad.

 

IT IS ALL SPAIN’S FAULT.

llIust Not Blame llIcKinley for Her
Awkward Position Regarding Lee.

London, March 8.—4 A. M.—The
Times says editorially this morning:

“If Spain is placed in an awkward
position respecting the Lee incident
she must thank the indiscretion of her
Foreign Office. She cannot blame Pres-
ident McKinley.

“Mr. Cannon’s bill can hardly be ex-
plained by the Lee incident. It is
probable that Spain is purchasing war
vessels.

“We do not believe that Spain desires
war, but if she does, this evidence of
America’s alertness offers a most ef-
fectual check. President McKinley ap-
pears to be adhering loyally to the pol-
icy of firmness, caution and pacific cir-
cumspection he has hitherto pursued.

“No doubt he has the support of the
sober and conscientious mass of the
American people, but has had to face
outbursts of popular clamor that a.
weaker man might have mistaken for
the voice of the country.”

 

WASHINGTON WELL GUARDED. w

 

Hostile Warships Would Be Blown to
Pieces in Chesapeake Bay.

W'ashington, March 8.-The \Var De-
partment has been working night and
day ever since the Maine disaster to
fortify the water approach to the cap-
ital. It is now asserted that if 100 hos-
tile battleships steamed up Chesapeake
Bay to bombard W‘ashington every one
would be blown to fragments before
they came within shooting distance of
Washington. 6

A formidable system of torpedoes and
mines have been placed in the Poto-
mac River. Fort Washington and
Sheridan’s Point have been converted
into veritable Gibraltars by the estab-
lishment of batteries of concealed 10‘
inch rifles and mortars. The work has
been carried on swiftly and almost se—
cretly, and since it has been progress-
ing no one has been allowed to ap-
proach within many hundred yards of
the fortifications without an order from
the Secretary of War.

 

Three Outlaws Lynched.

Cheyenne, Wyoming, March 8.—Mea-
gre details were received here last
night of the lynching in the Henry
Mountains near the Wyoming-Colorado
boundary of three members of the
“Robbers' Roost” band of outlaws
which has been terrorizing that region
for several years.
are Louis P. Johnson, F. Bemret and
an unknown man. Two weeks ago
Johnson murdered a boy named Will-
iam Strong, at Valentine Hoy’s ranch,
Wyoming. Hoy headed a. posse to pur-
sue Johnson and was ambushed and
killed Monday last. A posse of Hoy’s
friends, headed by Sheriff’s deputies,
continued the pursuit and caught three
of the outlaws, who were promptly put
to death.

Relief Expedition in Seattle.

Seattle, Wash, March 8.——The Gov-
ernment’s Alaska relief expedition,
with the 537 reindeer and 113 Lapland-
ers, which left New York last Tuesday,
March 1, at 6 P. M., over the Pennsyl-
vania Road to Chicago, where it took
the St. Paul and Milwaukee to this city,
here transferring to the Great Northern
for the balance of the land journey,
reached here at 5.30 o’clock yesterday
afternoon, having made the unprece—
dented time for freight trains of six
days from coast to coast. The rein-
deer all stood the journey well. The
Laplander children kept the measles
with them all the way from New York,
reaching Seattle with the whole twen-
ty-six suffering from that disease.

Senator hIills \Vith draws.

Houston, Tex., March 8.-—The Post
prints a letter from United States Son-
ator Mills in which he formally with-
draws from the race for re—election.
This leaves the field to Governor Cul-
berson. Mr. Mills gives as the princi-
pal reason for his withdrawal, the r..-
cent action of the State Executive
Committee, which made a stringent
.test for all persons desiring to partici-
pate -in Democratic primaries and con-
ventions. He also denies that he has
deserted bimetallism.

Not Buying Warships Ourselves.

London, March 8.—The St. James’
Gazette says: -“The United States is
not buying any war ships as long as
she does not feel the need for any out
side reinforcements. It is understood
that the efforts of the United States
representatives in England are not di-
rected toward the purchase of war
ships building, but to preventing Spain
from purchasing them.” .

The Spanish Torpedo Bpa-ts Will
' Remain at Cadiz.

DEPARTURE IS POSTPONED

l‘I..J Pale Says That the Fleet 1"“!
Not “Sail Now, Nor at Any Time
[in the Future”—Gen. \‘Voodi’ord’s
Visits Mentioned.

London, March 9.—-Advices received
here from Madrid say the Spanish tor-
pedo squadron at Cadiz will not sad
for Cuba, “owing’to information re—
ceived from the United States and
Captain-General Blanco."

ThePais, in confirming the state-
ment that the departure of the torpedo
squadron has been indefinitely _)ost-
poned, says:

”It would not be surprising, were the
event closely connected with the recent
visits of General Womli'crd to Senor
Gullon and Senor Sagasta. Every one
may be assured that the squadron will
neither sail now nor at any time in the
future.”

NOTHING AGAINST LEE.

Spain Has Received No Complaint Re-
garding His Attitude.

Madrid. March 9.—A semi—official
note just issued declares that the Span-
ish Government has not received any
complaitn regarding the attitude of
General Fitzhugh Lee, the United
States Consul—General at Havana, add-
ing:

“On the contrary, Captain-General
Blanco affirms that General Lee’s be-
havior has always been correct. Never-
theless. the incident serves to explain
the origin of the ill will between the
two countries. This is proved by he
statements attributed to Secretary
Sherman, by which the jingoes have
created the belief in the United States
that'Spain is trying to provoke war,
while at the same time engendering
the feeling in Spain that it is the
United States which demands the
opening of hostilities.

“It is essential that this double
game should be ended, in order to pre-
vent the two countries from going to
war without motives, and without
either- of them desiring it.”

Assurances of Peace.

A semi-official news agency has is-
sued the following announcement:

“After a brief uneasiness, there is a
general belief now that peace will not
be broken, and that the relations be-
tween Spain and the United States will
continue amicab‘e.

“Political personages assert that the
late sensational dispatches are com-
pletely wrong in attributing an aggres-
sive tone 10 the diplomatic relations be-
tween the two governments, which
have not for a single moment lost their
friendly character.”

Brownsmi Has Absolute

\E’ashington, March ibThe most im-
portant feature of the day yesterday,
aside from the Congress proceedings,

when the President and Mrs. McKin—
ley arrived there was a burst of cheers
which was continued in the theatre.

times before the excitement subsided.
Every seat in the house'was filled, and

U. S. Consul Hyatt. Tells of the Belle!
\‘Vork Being Done at Santiago de Cubs.

New York, March 7.-United States
Consul Hyatt writes from his post at
.‘4'antiogo de Cuba.to the New York
Central Relief Committee as follows:

“I desire to make a brief report of
the first four days’ work in distributing
the food and medicine which I received
in due time by steamship Niagara. As
stated in a. previous communication,
a committee of thirty of the best ladies
of the place divided the city into fifteen
districts, with two ladies to each dis—
trict. These issued ration tickets ac-
cording to the number of needy persons
in each house. These tickets are hon-
ored under the direction of a commit—
tee of gentlemen and myself, and a
liberal weeks rations are issued to each.
To prevent imposition we are obliged
to refuse all who do not come with
tickets from the ladies.

“The first day’s rations Were issued
to 370; second day, 577'; third day, 1,083;
foui'th day, 1.02:; total, 3,066. Each ra-
tion being for seven days makes a to-
tal of 21,462 for one day.

“As near as I can judge only about
one-half of the people who need‘help
have yet received their first rations,
and the codflsh and beans will give out
before we get around the first time. I
have given moderate quantities to the
eleemosynary institutions of the city,
and sent some to the mining and other
towns near by. We are trying to make
both food and medicine do the most
good possible. It takes six or eight po-
licemen to keep the crowds in order.

“I am obliged to spend some money
for labor. cartage, tranSportation,
cables, incidentals, etc. There are nu-
merous people badly ruptured and in'
a distressed condition. I am skilled in
handling trusses, but I hardly think it
advisable to send trusses, as each case
needsastock to select from. Iwould not
advise sending any more medicine ex-
cept quinine for the present. Every-
thing sent has been of superior quality.
The medicines have had almost mirac-
ulous effects. Should you make further
shipments keep beans, rice and codfish
in the foreground, but everything
comes in play.

“Smallpox has again broken out, and
I have requested Surgeon—General Wy-
man to send to you for me a. quantity
of vaccine virus. Should it not come
to hand I will thank you to furnish me
with a moderate quantity.” -

several weeks ago adopted a resolution
requesting John Wanamaker to allow
the use of his name as the anti-Quay

ence with Mr. Wanamaker here Satur-

the opinion that he would accept the
League’s request and become a candi-
date for Governor.

ing operatives of the Pepperell and La-
conia cotton mills, who went out seven
weeks ago in resistence of a. 10 per cent.

than to assure them that the Pepper-

ploy 3,500 operatives.

Mississippi Negro Lynched.

while they were transferring the negro
for safekeeping, and taking him from
them, dragged him to a. telephone pole
near by, where his body was left swing-
ing in the moonlight. The negro was
tried a. week ago for a. similar offense,
but the evidence was not sufficient to
convict him.

 

Over 900 People Start for Alaska.

Seattle, W’ash., March 7.-—Over 900
persons left here yesterday on the

KID‘ M'cov CHAMPION. '

The New Champion of the Ring—Fitzim-
mons and Corbett Refused to Meet Him.

Indianapolis, Ind., March 8.—-As the
six weeks’ time which McCoy has al-
lowed Fitzsimmons to either decline or
accept his challenge has expired, the
Kid has claimed the championship. He
will leave the $5,000 forfeit up to fight
any man in the world for the title. _

Although the majority of the sport-
ing men laugh at McCoy when he calls
himself the champion, it must be con-
ceded. however, that McCoy is perfect-
ly right in claiming the title, as he had
his money posted for a fight with Fitz-
Simmons, and as the latter has declined
to fight him, he is in every way enti-

"tled to claim the championship.

Fitzsimmons, in the statement which
he gave out in Columbus recently, stat-
ed that he would fight McCoy at the
middle-weight limit, 154 or 158 pounds,
after the Kid defeated Maher. There
is one thing, however, which Fitzsim-
mons ought to remember. He is the
recognized champion of the world and
he must defend the title against all
comers, if the challenger can‘secure a.
big side bet worth his while fighting
for.

Fitzsimmcns has no right to tell Mc-
Coy that he must fight Maher, Shar-
key or any one else, just because Cor-
bett told him to do so, for McCoy is
willing to fight for $10,000 a side, and
unless Fitz consents to fight McCoy,
the latter can claim the championship
of the world—a thing which John L.
Sullivan never allowed any fighter to
do. -

McCoy’s next big battle will be with
Joe Choynskl. which is scheduled for
Hot Springs on April 20. '

Chicago, March 8.-~—Dr. Edwin Klebs,
discoverer of the diphtheria germ, de-
clares he has also discovered the true
yellow fever germ. The professor is
still developing his theory. He says

tion, which has. stopped their supplies
