Anthracite In the Navy.
The promotion of a movement
favorable to the use of anthracite
coal as fuel for tlie United States
Navy, inaugurated sometime ago
by the Anthracite Coal Operators'
Association, with headquarters in
New York, was supplimeiited on Tues
day at 'NVilUesbarro by a similar olTort
on the part of the Commercial Club,
composed principally of leading coal
dealers. The meeting was largely
attonded.
Congressman Morgan B. Williams
has taken an active part in tile move
ment, and he notified the above as
sociation that he had already inter
ested Senators Quay and Penrose and
various Congressmen in the move
ment, and ho has arranged with these
representatives to call on the Secre
tary of the Navy and confer with
him about the question of anthracite.
The members of tho association were
urged to insist on the government
using nntltracite coal on its vessels, as
they claim that much surprise has
been expressed that a smokeless coal
has not been provided both for coast
service and foreign coaling stations.
During the discussion many argu
ments were advanced in favor of tlie
use of anthracite. Following the
widespread use of smokeless powder,
it would seem that as many advant
ages would attach t a fuel from
which no smoke was produced. In
stead, however, the Navy has trrtr
cliased and is using soft coal which,
when burned, and especially under
forced draught, yields an enormous
volume of black smoke. As a con
sequence of this tho presence of a
vo.sol can be discovered at nearly
fifty per cent, greater distance than
if no smoke came from its funnels.
In other words, where, in attacking
an enemy, a vessel burning soft coal
may be discovered while at adistauce
of some eighteen miles, it could, in
burning ant iracite, move to within
twelve miles without being observed.
In blockading, and especially for
the coast defence vessels, this is a
matter of the greatest consequence.
us during the day time there is every
advantage through the absence of
smoke, and at niglit there is almost
as much since bituminous coal, when
under heavy forced draught, often
produces a Hume at the top of the
funnel.
A further and more important dis
advantage caused by smoke is in the
fact that, when u squadron of vessels
Is In motion, a donse cloud of smoke
hangs around them, preventing a
prompt reading of signals or the
ability to locate each vessel.
Still unother serious disadvantage
in soft coul is in tho constant danger
from spontaneous combustion in tho
ship's bunkers. This is a matter o
such common occurrence on board
tlie vessels of tho Navy that it
creates Iittlo remark, though the
least inattention on the part of those
whose duty it is to observe tho tern
peruture of tho vurioits compart
ments might result in the loss of t.ie
vessel and all of its men. Tlie same

dilliciilty arises in the supplies of soft
coal kept at coaling stations.
Fuel is the vital and most import
ant factor in the effective service of
a war vessel, and for many years it
was the practice in trial trips to use
anthracite. In almost every instance
the line officers recognize the advan
tages of uuthracite. From ovory
oint of view unthracito offers de
cided and substantial advuntages
over soft coal. Its steaming propen
sities are as great; it is easier to
handle and safer to store; it issmoko-
loss, and free from danger of spon
taneous combustion.
Tho members of the club decided
to take immediate action on the
matter, and the committee will prob
ably go to Washington to urge tho
measure upon tho Naval Department.

New York, April 7. The Cuban junta,
through Its counsel, lit ratio S. Itubens,
yesterday declared In unequivocal lan
guage that the Cuban provisional gov
ernment and the Cuban army would
reject absolutely Intervention by the
XTnited States unless It should be pre
ceded by a recognition of the Independ
ence of the Cuban republic; that If the
United States persisted In Intervening
without recognizing Cuban Independ
ence, the Cuban government and mili
tary foices would refuse to co-operate,
and that If United Slates troops should
be sent 1 1 Cuba upon the basis of In
tervention without recognition, the Cu
ban army would, In the last resort,
turn its arms against the United
States.
Last evening Mr. Itubens supple
mented his utterances with this writ
ten statement over his signature:
"The statement appearing over my
name was based on the Indications ap
pearing that tlie object of the United
States In refusing to recognize the In
dependence of Cuba was to annex the
island to the United States. It was In
view of this fact that I expressed the
detcrmlnn1 Ion of the Cuban army to
resist. AVe would, of course, welcome
the American army to aid us In achlev
Ins our independence."

Key West, Kin., April 7. The Man

passengers aboard. Rho is coaling at

to Havana as oon as through. Consul
General Lee did not come. There is
great excitement here. Every state
.room on the Mascotte was engaged.
The city of Key West will have a big
crowd today. It Is reported that there
Is great excitement at Havana, but no
disorder.
Intense disappointment was exhib
ited by all hands on hoard the (lagshli
New York when news regarding the
reported settlement at Madrid was
read. Until 0 o'clock last evening it
was confidently believed the lleet would
sail tndny or tomorrow for Havana or
Porto IUco, and the pacific news came
like n bombshell. Captain Sampson
read the dispatch with eager Interest
after which it was read at the messes,
He believes that there Is still a chance
that the Ameilcan navy may have nn
opportunity to show what It is made
of, but he regrets the delay, which
will probably enable Spain to bring her
.torpedo flotilla and other warships to
these waters. All the high naval au
thorities on board maintain that Spain
shouU not ho allowed to bring her
forces over pending settlement.

How Hulls mid Honrs Profit by Con
lllctltilt Wac Itmiiorn.
New Yuri. April ". There is a strong
cnnvli tbm cm Wall street that delny In
the ending In of the president's mcs
snRe Is favorable to tlie avoidance of
war. This was clearly manifest In the
response of the matket to the early
rumor from abroad that the president's
messnKe would not eo In yesterday,
and to the later authorized announce
ment from Wasliliigtorithat It would
be withheld until Monday. The dispo
sition of the mesmiKe was the central
point about which the whole market
turned all day. The assertions of the
mornlns newspapers thut It would
without tiuoHtlnn tfo In, und that It
would declare for forcible Intervention,
caused the decline nt the opening, the
opening prices In almost all cases being
the lowest of the day.
The resistance to the decline and the
quick recovery were a surprise to out
side observers, who were prepared for
something lllse a war panic on the ex
change. The recovery was duo to
cabled reports of a rumor In London
that the message would not go In until
next Tui'sdny. This rumor was quickly
discredited by statements from Wash
ington, and the market drifted to a
lower plane again, hut not to the low
est. The stagnation of the trading
during this period of waiting was al
most absolute, and tho sudden out
break of activity when the later au
thentic repoits came from Washington
that the message would be delayed
until Monday was In strong contrast.
It was evident that the conclusion was
leaped to that the withholding of tho
message was due to a reception of fur
ther proposals from Spain or to move
ments for mediation by Kuropan pow
ers, giving promise that the two coun
tries might emerge peacefully from
their entanglement. The violent ad
vance was cheeked and reaction set In
when It was stated that delay was due
to advices from Consul Perioral Leo.
Prices stiffened again, however, before
the close, on the strength of the gen
eral sentiment that delay favoied
peace.

London, April 7. The Vienna corre
spondent of The Times explains a plan
of settlement which "offers an accept
able compromise. If not too late, nnd
which has already come under the no
tice of one of tho parties concerned."
He says: "The scheme Involves giv
ing Cuba autonomy, but placing the
island In a relation toward Spain sim
ilar to that which Egypt sustains to
ward Turkey. Under this plan Cuba
would pay an annual tribute to Spain,
wliile America would be entrusted with
the control of the Cuban finances and
have the same standing there ns Eng
land has in Egypt. The United States
would guarantee the Spanish loan,
which, considering America's high
credit, could easily bo issued at 3 per
cent interest, being covered by the
tribute. The proceeds of the loan could
be divided, say one-third to Cuba and
two-thirds to Spain, and thus both ho
rescued from financial distress and an
honorable peace secured, advantageous
to both America and Spain."

'Alio llrnnklyn Tries Her Guns.
Fort Monroe, Aprn 7. The Brooklyn,
flagship of the Hying squadron, tried
her eight Inch juns yesterday in order
to test the new elevating apparatus
deigned to give them greater range.
The first shot was sent out with a ser
vice charge of 85 pounds of powder,
the gun being elevated at five degrees.
The 200 pound shell left the muzzle of
the gun at a velocity of 2,000 feet a
second. It struck the water two and
three-quarter miles from the ship, send
ing up a vast column of water. The
second shot was with the full powder
charge, 110 pounds, and sent the pro
jectile very near four miles, putting it
in the water at a speed of 1.000 feet
per second. There was no perceptible
Jarring from the shot.

WHAT IT INDICATES
Nothing so interferes with one's plans or
ambition like sickness or poor health. Have
you ever thought that your kidneys may be the
cause of your sickness? You can easily find
out by setting aside your urine for twenty-four
hours ; a sediment or settling indicates an un
healthy condition of the kidneys. When urine
stains linen it is evidence of kidney trouble.
Too frequent desire to urinate or pain in the
hack, is also convincing proof that the kidneys
and bladder are out of order.
It is a source of comfort to know that Dr.
Kilmer's Swamp Root is the gieat remedy for
all kidney and bladder complaints. It relieves
pain, stitcii or dull aching in the back, difficult
or painful urination, frequent desire to urinate,
scalding or pain in passing it, and quickly
overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to get up many times during the
night. The mild and extraordinary effect of
Swamp-Root is soon realized. Its action is
gentle, yet immediate, the relief speedy and
(lie cures permanent. At druggists fifty cents
and one dollar. You may luve a sample bottle
and pamphlet, both sent free hy mail upon
receipt of three two-cent stamps. Men
tion IIl'.KAI.D and send your address to Dr.
Kilmer & Co., Ilinghamton, N. Y. The
proprietors of this paper guarantee the genuine
ness of tliis ofier.
