The decision of the navy department to send two rinipa to uuua wun supplies lor uie BUffern(r reconcontrados caused some commotion In ofllclal circles yesterday until the real purpose of the visit of the shlps cnme ,out' T1e crultf J,l0m ' gomery and the gunboat NaBhvl le vero e,ccted for bthe vunmU). and orders were sent to Admiral Slcard to put them In shape for the required ser vice. It Is explained at the navy de partment that this action was taken at the Instance of the Cuban Ilollef as sociation, organized through tho ef forts of the state department for the relief of tho destitute non-combatants In Cuba. It was represented to tho department that great distress prevails among the people In the vicinity of Sngua la Grande and Matanzas, on the north ern coast of the Island, and that con siderable dllllculty Is experienced In sending supplies there because of the infrequent visits of tho merchant ships. On this account, and because of the Immediate demand for supplies at the points Indicated, the ofllcers of tho association requested the secretary of tho navy to authorize tho use of one or more of the warships at Key West In the transportation there of food sup- piles contributed by the charitable people of the United States In response to the apptv.ls of Persldent McKlnley and Secretary Sherman. The Montgomery will go to Matan zas and the Nashville to Sagua la Grande, with the understanding that they will remain in those ports only long enough to deliver the supplies to the agents of the association for dls trlbutlon where they will do the most good. Although tho mission assigned to the warships will take them both within a short distance of Havuna, cstl mated at from two to four hours. It Is stated that neither vessel will visit tho Cuban capital. To remove the Impression that had gotten abroad to the effect that the relations between the navy department and the house naval committee were not harmonious, Secretary Long gave out a short stutcment on the subject. He said: "Congressman Boutelle has been misunderstood. The congress man, who Is one of the most patriotic men In the world, Is always ready to do everything that can be done for the navy. In his annual report the secre tnry recommended that 1,500 men be added to the enlisted force on account of the Increase In the number of ships. Tho naval committee, of which Mr. Boutelle Is chairman, has already de cided to grant this Increase In the regular naval appropriation bill. Mean time, If there should be any Immediate necessity for more men, the same com mlttee, and Mr. Boutelle as Its chair man, are ready to make provision to that effect at once." It has already been practically de- elded by the huse naval committee that the price which the secretary of the navy shall be authorized to pay for armor plate for the Bhlps now approaching completion shall be $400 per ton, but no formal vote has yet been taken on this proposition by the BUb-commlttee. The work of the sub committee, as far as It has gone, Is now being reviewed and ratified by tho full committee. Thus far tho sub committee's action has not been re versed. The full committee has rati fied the action of the sub-committee In recommending an Increase of $100,000 for ordnance, bringing the total ap propriation for this Item up to $300,000, besides the appropriations of $25,000 for converting six Inch guns Into rapid fire guns, $45,000 for capping armor piercing shells and $50,000 for the man ufacture of cartridge making ma chinery (the latter appropriation to go to the ordnance factory). An appro priation of $275,000 to increase the speed of the Chicago and to replace her old guns with rnpld fire batterlnes is also recommended, and an appro priation of $250,000 for reserve torpe does ..rid appliances. A commander for the monitor Mlan tonomah, which was ordered Into com mission Tuesday, was selected yester day In the person of Captain Mortimer Johnson, who It at present on waiting orders. Secretary Long Bays that tho Mlantonomah, with the ram Katah dln, will remain In the Delaware for the present at least. With the commis sioning of these two vessels there ra main only the cruisers Columbia and Minneapolis on the Atlantic coast lvallable for Immediate service In case the department should decide to com mission more ships. There are a number of good ships on the Pacific coast, however, whoso repair Is under way, such as the Phila delphia, the Charleston, the Vorktown and otherB, and the payrolls of the construction bureau at the Mare Island navy yard has now mounted to the large total of $CO,000 per month for wages alone. It Is said In the navigation bureau that there Is a pressing need of able, machinists for the navy caused by the heretofore unnoted fact that every one of the machinists of the Maine lost his life In the explosion. More over, all the firemen but one were killed. The bureau has Invited enlist ments from men who have had naval service before In the engine rooms, Don't Tobacco Bplt aud Smoke Your Tie,. Away.

Wllkesbnrrn, Pa., Starch 3. When court opened yesterday for the con tinuation of tho trial of Sheriff Martin nnd Ills deputies Sheriff Martin's croB examination was resumed. The main point established was that the wit ness denied the remark, after the shoot ing, that he had merely "taken a hand In the matter us plain James Martin, nnd not as the sheriff of Lu zerne county." The defense endeavored to have the sheriff testify that he was unable to suppress the riot and disorder, and that the civil authorities were unable to cope with it and had telegraphed to the governor for aid to suppress the riot. The commonwealth objected to this line of testimony, and Judge Woodward sustained the objection. Samuel Price, a contractor and com mission merchant of Ilazleton, testi fied that he was Sheriff Martin's chief deputy during the week, and had been selected by Mr. Hall. He told about the sheriff giving nil tho deputies ex plicit orders to keep cool and not get excited; to protect property and main tain the peace. He also told them they were not to shoot unless for Belt protection. At Lattlmer he heard sev eral Hungarians Jeer the deputies and remark: "You shootee me, klllee me, me no citizen, my wife nnd children get plenty money." The witness also dis covered, by going among the strikers and feeling about their clothing, that they were armed with revolvers and stones. The sheriff declined to have any of the deputies accompany him when he walked down the road to Lat tlmer to meet the mob and endeavor to halt the strikers. The witness de clared that just before the first vol ley was fired a pistol shot was fired from behind the deputies. Ho turned to see where the shot came from and a striker behind the deputies aimed a revolver at him. He dropped to the ground and heard the bullet whistle over his head. By the time he got on his feet all the shooting was over and the strikers were fleeing. He did not known who gave the order to fire. Orlo Pardee Piatt, of Hazleton, man ager of the Pardee department store, proved the best witness the defense has had so far, as he gave a clear and detailed description of the whole mat ter. He was one of the deputies, and told how the property owners In Hazle ton and vicinity appointed special watchmen to guard their properties at night from being damaged by the riot ous mob of strikers, and how they purchased a hundred Springfield rifles and breechloadlng shotguns for these watchmen. These were the arms that were afterward given to the depu ties. He also told how a chartered po lice organization had been organized in 1S70 and had guarded company properties ever since In that region. Mr. Piatt told how a striker, carrying a flag nailed on a stick, had struck him with It, and how the witness broke tho stick and took the flag when the striker tried to run the stick in his face. The witness saw the sheriff halt the strikers at Lattlmer on Sept. 10 and advise them to disperse. The sheriff was knocked down upon his knees and pummeled by the strikers, some of whom flourished revolvers and knives nnd tried to kill him. Tne vltnes3 lefv the deputies, rushed to the sheriff's rescue and tried to stop the strikers, but his gun would not work. The bal ance of the strikers rushed toward the deputies. While the witness tried to rescue the sheriff ho heard a shot and then came the volley. There was no shooting after the volley, and the strikers scattered. The strikers were shot while on company property. The witness did not shoot, and does not know who gave the order to fire. On cross examination the witness substantiated the bravery of his an cestors, the Pardees, by telling how his great grandfather fought In the revolution, how his fathers uncle, Arlo Pardee, equipped two entire com panies for the late war and how Gen eral Pardee served throughout the war and was breveted for bravery In the battle. A. M. Hess, a civil engineer of Ha zleton, who commanded Company A, of the deputies, corroborated Mr. Piatt about the attack on the sheriff and how Mr. Piatt Hew to his rescue. There was no shooting after the fatal vol ley. The witness did not shoot, but several of his company did, but ho could not tell who.
