Tho Stonington Lino Adda to Its Equipment. The building ot two new ateamrrs by the l'rovldence A Htonlugton Steamship Com pany, to run on their Stoulugton Line, Is an event ol much Interest not only to tho travel- eg public, tint to nil who are In any way In terested In marine architecture, as these simmers present many novelties in type nnd plan, and are ths result of much thought de- otcd to tho question ol the best type of ves sel to run on great Inland bodies of water such as Ixuib Island Bound. Tho size of those steamers, the advantage ol their plan and equipment, their arrange ments lor speed, comfort and aafcty, the mag nificcnceol their interior fittings and decora tions, Will all combined make them the finest vessels of their klud afloat. Tho llrst of the0 vessels, the "Maine," wni launched at Uarlau & Jlolllngsworth yard at Wilmington, Delaware, on October 31st, and tho secoud, tho "New Hampshire," will bo lauuchi d In about three weeks. The design of theo steamer, though mod eled somewhat on tho plan ol tho new pro pellers now running on tho 1'ototnao Itlver, Is lurely tho work of Mr. J. W. Miller, tho President of the Providence & Btonlngtou Htenuisntp Company, and thoy have been built under tho Immodlate supervision of Mr, H. J. Cluriie, tho Haierlutendcnt of the Company. 1 To begin with, these boats are steel pro pellers, In Itself n great innovation on Long Irland ound, where the side wheeler h-is held sway so long, Their general dimensions aro : length on water line, 802 feel 7 Inches; length over all, 310 feet; beam molded on load water line, 41 feet; width over guards, 00 feet; drnrt, 12 foot. Tho passenger gangway is well an, and leads lo a social hall extending the width of the vessol. On the forward side of this Is tho grand fctatrway and to the rear of a ladlcV cabin. Tho grand stairway leuds to tho main sa loon, which Is a magnificent apartment 243 lect long In the clear, and will bo decorated In White and gold with beveled plate glass mhrors.eto. Tho front of this saloon will bo occupied by large parlor storeroouiB nncly furnished with brass bedslc.ids, and tbo occu punts of these rooms will havo a line outlook- Above this and reached by a stairway from ho lorwaid saloon will be a gallery deck' The front of this houso is on a circle which will be mado Into an observation room with nearly the entire front ol glass. Blldlug doors shut it oil from the dining room, which Is reached by a passage between slatcrooms.lwo on a side. The location of tho dining saloon ou this deck Is a unique idea which cannot fall to bo popular, especially on -warm sum mer days, When tho dining rooms on tho lower deelr, which Is whero It Is located on al most nil sound bouts except those of the l'rovldencoiSStoulngton Lines, become ex. tremely hot aud ktutry. TI16 pantry, kitchen, oarber shops, smoking room, etc,, will also all be on this deck. Over tho gallery Is tho pilot house, which will contain all tho latest appll ances for tato navigation. Two handsome domes light the main saloon Thorolsnn annunciator service from every stateroom, and a special service between tho olllcers' quarters. Thesteatn heating service is connected with both the main and tho donkey boilers. The falnon will bo heated by radiators and tho staterooms by continuous plpo-'. All the plumblbg will be tlrtt class. Tho steamers will be llgbled by electricity, about 000 lights being Installed on each vessel, side and siern llghis being also electric and a search light will bomounted upon tho pilot house. The main engine of tnoso steamers will bo an In vented, direct acting, surface condensing, triple expansion engine wnh four cylinders 28, 15, $1 nud 51 Inches diameter, with 12-luch slrofco. The propeller Is of cast Irou, left handed, fourbladed, and 13ifoet In diameter. Four Scotch type boilers will be Installed In each vessel. Tbeso will be 13 feet 0 inches in diameter and 11 feet 0 Inches long, nnd will bo mado of steelliavlug a tousllo strength of 00,000 pounds to tho square Inch.

Wasiunqton-, Nov. 28. Within tho past two days an lmprosston has arisen that Now York votes will settlo the Speakership contest, and the trips ot Mossrs. Mills, Crisp and Springer to tho metropolis hnvo done much to strengthen this impression. Whether it is true or not that tho delegates from New York will voto as n unit, the fact that tlio voto ot ono State is likely to dotermlno tho lssuo shows how closo nnu uncertain tho light is at present. iho friends of Air. Mills maintain their confidence, snylng that in any event he will securo enough ot tho un pledged votos to glvo him tho nomina tion in caucus. Thero is no doubt thnt the chances of Springer. McMillan. Hatch and llynum depend largely upon a prolongod contest between Mills and (Jrlsp. Uf the VJQ votes that will bo cast in tho caucus on tno first ballot, in tho neighborhood ot 150 will bo cast for Mr. Mills or Mr. Crisp. Honco, if a nomination Is mado on tho second or third ballot, those minor candidates will have llttlo oppor tunity to form combinations. Thoy aro, thoroforu, uucournglng ns much as possiblo a protractod contest botweon tho two loaders. If this bitter ness can bo fostorod, and It has already been partially developed. It Is possiblo that neither of tho two leaders men tioned will soouro tho caucus nomina tion. However, certain pooplo who aro on tho right sldo of tho ropes and know exactly how tho fighting is being dono, aro pinning their faith to Crisp, ono of thoso saying this morning : "Crisp will bo Spoakor. Writo that down aud lot It stand." Thero seems to bo soma misunder standing about tho Ohio dolegntlou. Tho frlonds of Mr. Mills nnd Mr. (Jrlsp both claim ten votos In that btato. which has only fourtoon altogether la tho Domocrntlo caucus. Mr. bprlugor, it is stated, has In his pockot lottors from two of thoso nssuriug him of their support, which shows that thoro is a mistake somewhere. Mr. Springer hn3 always boon cspoclnlly friendly to tho Ohio Demo crats, nnd ho thinks thnt this will bu re ciprocated when tho brook comes In tho caucus. Ho was chairman ot tho com mittee sent to Cincinnati iu lbS3 to in vestigate tho nllogod lrrogularitlos ot United atatos Marshal Lot Wright in tho October election, prior to tho Presi dential eloctlon in that year, nnd when ever tho subject hns boon brought up on tuo lioor of tbo Houso la hot political debates Mr. Sprlngor has always do- fended tho Cincin'inti and Uhlo Dem ocracy. Tbo report from Indianapolis that tho Farmers' Alliance Congressmen will flock by thomsolve has not produced any startling affect upon tho candidates already in tho Held. This fnct has boon foreshndowod by recont utternucos of President Polk and Jerry Simpson, nnd henco its olloct baa boon largely dls counted. Noithor Mr. Mills nor Mr. Crisp nro liahlo to suitor thoroby, It having boon conceded thnt It tho Alliance members supported any straight Democrat It would bo Mr. Hatch, of Missouri, lim ing declared that thoy will support ono of their numbor, it Is probable that that Individual will bo uoionoi Livingstone, of Georgia. There nro only tour Alliance members credited in tho unofficial Hat, although thoro aro some 40 members who hnvo boon elected through Alllaucu influoncos. From 12 to 20 of thoso nro oxpected to follow the Alliance leaders rather than participate in tho Democratic caucus. but no advantngo will be gainod by them iu that way. Next to tho Speakership the warmest contest has heretofore boou ovor tho Clerkship of tho Houso. This contest has been considerably simplified by the Governor of Maryland appointing ex- Congrossinnu Gibson to auoceed to the vacancy caused by tho death ot tho lata Senator Wilson of that utnto. Mr. Gibson has boon one ot tin promt nont candidates tor tho clorkshlp and divided With John U. (Jlnrkof Missouri, a largo proportion of tho Southern voto. Mr. aibson having notified tho Gover nor of Maryland that ho will accept the appointment, is therefore voluntarily retired from tho raoo. Although his Senatorial term may not be a long one, it has some advantages oounected with it. He will receive tho salary for the full tlmo oinnsinu Bluoa tho death ot Senator Wilson, whloh. ooourrod uoarly a year ago. Kuitliin-l'runco Treaty Again. Brussels, Nov. 28.
