Secretary Herbert, however, believes that the risk assumed by a naval attache would be too great to warrant a detail, although there is no lack of volunteers among the naval ofiicers. The military attache would be reasonably safe at the headquarters of the Held marshals, but a naval attache If conscientiously In pursuit of information would b obliged to go aboard the flagShips during: hostile engagements and would be exrioed to almost certain death in the event of the sinking of his ship. So the , Navy Department will rely for Information upon the officers on our ships in Asia who are actlnsr as agents of the naval intelligence ofllce, and Admiral Carpenter has been instructed to afford these officers very proper opportunity in tha pursuit of helr object. Tne Concord has sailed from tfakio for Chempulo, Corea. i Secretary Gresham to-day received a1 brief cablegram from United States Minister Dunn, at Tokio. Japan, confirming the yre?s reports of an irrportant Japanese naval victory at the mouth of the Yalu rtver.

John Inglas. late nav&l advisor of Japan, commenting on the naval battle fought between China and Japan off the mouth of the Yalu river. In n Interview, to-day, said: The first . point which Is attracting naval attention Is the great mistake the Chinese committee made in not following Captain Mahan's fundamental rule not to hug the shore. At once, after fighting the Japanese, it -as Admiral Ting's business to bring his ships Into section, knowing that If he enraged In a serious battle there was no fear that the landing of the troops would be Interfered with, Tne fatal idea of hugging the shore chiefly accounts for the Chinese loss. It is notewonhv that the two heavy gun. of the Chen-Yuen were disabled. These guns were placed in barbettes close together en echelon. Yet a tingle shot upset the machinery and reduced the war ship to the level of a small cruiser. It is also clear that small cruisers of hih speed are better than the heavy armored ships. The fleet which had lh most battle-ships lost four of them, whil the fle?t which was all cruisers Is reported not to have lost a vessel. I repeat, neglect of Captain Mahaa's rules cost China dear.

WHAT THE C'O.XiHESS.MAV DIDN'T SAY IX THE PI'TXAM CAMPAIGN. Ileiinlon of the Regiment Tlutt Fired the Lnxt Shot In the War-Wardell Esitoftlnsc SplrltunllNiti. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. G R EEXCA STLE, Ind.. Sept. 21. George W. Cooper has closed his campaign in Putnam county, and his four speeches," delivered at as many points, have developed the fact that the wily Congressman is fast losing his grip In this county. His speeches have been alt of the same order, and were somewhat different from the speech with which he opened at Columbus. In former campaigns in this county all Mr. Cooper had to do to stir up enthusiasm was to merely make a gesture, and the applause would come. He spoke for forty minutes before he got a hand, and his talks of two hours were one continual explanation of his vacillating course In Congress. His speeches were miserable attempts at justification. He confessed that two years ago he had In the same spots proclaimed the virtue and the merits of free silver- He says he knows more now than he did then. He denounced the Sherman law as "vicious in principle and unfounded In philosophy." He failed to say that he voted for the law. He praised the tariff bill and denounced as traitors the makers of the same. He pointed out the great good to come from it and scored the Senate Democrats who constructed it. He failed to refer in any of his speeches to Cleveland's query to Wilson. "How can we. face the people," and to Mr. Cleveland's statement about the bill being of "party perlidv and dishonor." The Congressman i-4 finding it hard work to "face the people" of Putnam county, for there is a big split in his party on his own account. Here in Greencastle there is an element, led by prominent and influential Democrats, that make no secret of- their hatred of Cooper. The leader of the movement Is Dr. G. W. Pence, a widely-known physician, who has a strong pull all over the district. It took bard work for the Democratic politicians to pet together audiences for Mr. Cooper. Desperate measures were taken to swell the crowds, and an appeal was made to every committeeman to hustle out the vot?rs. This hard woik was so apparent that the Democrats by it merely learned their own weakness, and are considerably alarmed at the condition. Mr. Overstreet spoke here on Sept. 4, and in hi talk referred to Mr. Cooper's course in Congress as that of a "vacillating molecule." His opinion of his opponent is more than carried out by Mr. Cooper's weak attempts to condone hitf many bluna era. me jiepuimvau jiaiu m x uiuoni county was never in better, shape, and Mr. Overstreet will be greeted on his appearance here next week with large audiences. He will make four speeches in the county. Lnnriln Makes a Good Argument. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. XOnLESVILLE. Ind., Sept. 21. Hon. Charles Landis addressed the Republicans of Noblesville, at the courthouse', to-night. The court room was crowded and the audience enthusiastic. Mr. Landis dealt with the tariff question in a masterly manner. and exposed many of the follies of the lately-enacted tariff law. He also showed that Democratic demagogy is responsible for the existence of the great debt of the State, and that the debt has not been re duced a dollar as the result of heavily-in creased taxes for that purpose, but the only reduction of the State debt that has been made was by the application of the direct taxes refunded by the federal government, the suit to recover which was instituted and prosecuted by a Republican Attorneygeneral. Mr. Landis was frequently Interrupted with hearty applause. Mlrrlnjc Speech at Sullivan Special to the 'Indianapolis Journal. SL'LLIVAX, Ind.. Sept. 21. Hon. Thomas H. Nelson spoke here Wednesday night to a large and enthusiastic crowd. The speak ing was in the courthouse, and for the want of room many were compelled to return home without hearing him.

The past year it had the largest circulation in its history among the brethren of this conference. Rev. Black, of the West Nebraska Conference, was introduced next to present the needs of the brethren, who are suffering in that section of Nebraska.

'Gl&ATtiST LIVING MAX" Bishop Kean's V.owof the Pope, Formed During' a Visit to Home. BALTBfOljlJjept. 21.-Bishop J. J. Keanc, rector of the Catholic University, Washington, reached New York by the steamer Britannic this morning and came at once to Baltimore, where he spent the evening and night at the rer:clence of Cardinal Gibbons. Bishop Keane went to Rome July 30 for the purpose of personally seeing the Pope and telling him of the Catholic University and the condition of affairs in that institution. He had two audiences with the Pope, in which the Holy Father expressed himself as delighted with the state of affairs at the university. In speaking of the relations of the Quirinal to the Vatican, Bishop Keane said that the policy of the Pope, in view of the recent overtures in Italy, Is the union of the church with the great democratic powers of the future that Is, America and France. This is his hope, and towards it all his remarkable energies are bent. He, as a clear-sighted statesman, is opposed, to militarism and despotism, and is, consequently, in sympathy with France, rather than with the triple alliance. o which Italy forms a. part. The Pope thinks a universal suffrage, controlled by moral and religious Influences, must decide the great social question of the future. The social ouestion the Pope recognizes as the great one of the future. Bishop Keane considers the Pope the greatest livinff man to-day. He is eightyfour vears of age. always rises not later than 6 o'clock, does not go to bed before 1 or 2 o'clock in the morning and Is the most abstemious person imaginable. "He eats," savs the bishop, "almost nothing, and is the most ethereal human being I have ever seen. His mental and spiritual nature are so developed and his will power and nerve force are so great that these sustain him and he is as well as he was the last time 1 saw him." Bishop Keane said the I'ope Is intensely InteresteJ In America and American politics and that h was well informed on these subjects. He was profoundly grateful for the reception of Monsignor Satolli in this country, and. of course, much interested in his career. , , , t , Bishop Keane. In sneaking of Italy, says that it is bankrupt, and is now sustained bv Germany ani thnt he general impression in Europe is that the Italian monarchy cannot last. In the reconstruction of Italian affairs, the inlcpemience of the Holy Father will be recognized; LOSS OF THE SENEGAL. ItrltlMh Ship and Twcnt y-lnc PerMn IHnnppear in a Storm. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 21. The big British ship Senegal is at the bottora of the Pacific somewhere In latitude SO :17 north; longitude 119:08. for It was In about that locality that Colsen, a sailor on the schooner Mary C. Ruw, saw her rel light po cut one stormy night at sea. The Senegal was bonnJ from an Diego to Tacoma, with loose s.ind for bill.ist. She was a large iron ship of the latest design and was considered cne of the best in the Kntfish merchant marine service. The captain was accompanied by his young daughter, and the crew consisted of twenty-seven men. It was early In March when the vessel sailed and the only ti'lings ot her was when Capt. Thompson, of the schooner Mary C. Russ, wrote from San Dieio a few weeks ago. raying tha? he was In comnany with her on the night of "March 18. Colsen was on the deck nf th? schooner during the whole of that nijht at ea and he sajs that the

storm that tossed the liftle ship about was the worst that he had experienced in the score of years that he has spent on the ocean. The Senegal, he says, was sighted just as darkness was closing In, beating up against a freshening northeast gale. By midnight the gale was at Its neight. Colsen said he soon began to watch for the .gleam of the Senegal's light. Just before daylight the red light of the big ship appeared for the last time. The Senegal rose on the crest of p. wave as a squall more severe than Its predecessors came down upon them. The red light gleamed, then went out for an instant. It appeared for a moment, then was lost altogether. In vain, the crew of the schooner watched for it. It had gone out forever, and with it went the lives1 of all her crew. When day broke, about an hour afterwards, the big ship was nowhere In sight. SIoTenienta of Steamer. LIVERPOOL. Sept. 21. Arrived: Germania, from New York; Nomadic, from New York. QFEENSTOWN.

Some time ago a resident of Tennessee wrote to the Attorney-general stating that last May he saw an advertisement In a Chicago paper offering for sale 160 acres of land in Gove county, Kansas. The realestate agent lived, at Lathrop, Mq., and through him the land was purchased" ' by the, man from Tennessee. It wasl4hfn found that the government owned the" land. although the Lathrop agent had furnished a complete deed and abstract of the title. Since then the same tract has been advertised by the same agent. It is held by the Interior Department that as the rights of the government are In no way affected, there is nothing for the Interior Department to do in the premises. It is suggested, however, that the attention of the proper authorities be called to the fraud, with a view of saving innocent persons who don't take the trouble to make a thorough investigation of land titles. Curl on n Evidence In a Pension Cane.. WASHINTGON, Sept. 21. Commissioner -Lochren has received a bundle of curious evidence In a pension case. It was forwarded by a woman attorney from Springfield. Mass.. who appears for Charles Hubbard, a captain of the Massachusetts volunteers in the Mexican -ar. "Here's his sword, his cap and his coat,", says the attorney 1n a notev to the Commissioner, and sure enough, there was a sword of very ancient date and a cap and coat of the uniform and pattern worn in the Mexican war. "He has a gun here which will be furnished if necessary continues the woman lawyer, who evidently appears In the case not as a practicing lawyer, but who wishes to forward the claim of her; friend. The clothing was dusty wdtn age, and the sword was of :incient pattern and very rusty. Commissioner Lochren decided very quickly that the Pension Offlce. even if large, would not hold that kind of evidence, and the relics were Immediately shipped back to Springfield. Irrigation Ditch Money "Wasted. DENVER, Col., Sept. 21. Lieu Edward II. Plummer has been relieved at his own request from duty as acting agent at the Navajo Indian agency. In a report to the Indian Department Lieutenant Plummer states that half of the JGO.GOO appropriated by Congress to build an irrigating ditch on the Navajo reservation, n accordance with -General McCook's " recommendation, has ben frittered away, and there Is to show for it only 135 yards of ditch as useless as if it were in the mi Idle of the Sahara. It is understood tha'. Lieutenant Plummer recommends . that the man in charge of t'ae ditches be removed, lie says the appropriation has been, wasted in salaries and useless formalities. With drought, cramped reservation, low prices for wool and humbuggery at the hands of an alleged useless irrigation committee, tne Navajo? are on the verge of starvation, according, to Lieutenant Plummer.

RAFAEL NUNEZ DEAD PRESIDENT OV COLOMBIA A VICTIM " OF liASTItIC FKVKH. Regarded nn the Ablest nml Most Patriotic Statesman of the Republic Cicuernl Foreign Arm. COLON, Colombia. Sept. 2L-It is officially announced here that Dr. Rafael Nunez, President of the republic of Colombia, died on Tuesday morning of gastric fever. An Able Statesman. WASHINGTON. Sept. 21. Mr. Julio Renglfo, charge d'affaires of the Colombian legation, says that President Nunez was generally regarded as the .idlest and most patriotic statesman of the republic. His residence In the United States as a consular officer years ago had given him a close accuaintance with the affairs of this government, and he had used his influence to model his own government after that of the United States. The charge d'affaires does not anticipate trouble over the succession, he says, as Presiaent Nunez, during the greater part of his third term, has exercised more of a moral Influence over the affairs of the country than an executive direction. On account of ill health, he was unable to endure the climate of the capital. Rogota. and has remained at his home in Kl Cabrero; near Carthagena. while the Vice President, Miguel Antonio Caro. has been the real executive head of the government. Mr. Renglfo thinks that the Vice President will remain In control to the end of the six years term for which President Nunez was elected In 1892. Close watch wHl be kept of Colombian affairs by the diplomatic and naval repre sentatives of the United States, owing to the frequency of revolutions In Central America. It is hoped that the new admin istration will prove stable, but should trouble bo threatened a naval vessel will be dispatched to Colombia. i AMERICAN FRYIT BEST. British Jirorrem Cannot Hope to Compete with California. LONDON. Sept. 21. The controversy upon the question of English fruit is growing largely. It was stirred up by the recent invasion of California fruit and by Mr. Gladstone's recommendation- to small Brit ish farmers to give up growing w'h eat and take to fruit growing. In this connection Mr. Richard Blackmore, the novelist, who for forty years has been a large fruit grower upon his model farms in Surrey, has written a letter to the Times, in which he says that it is impossible at tne present wholesale prices of English fruit to make a fair profit. He adds that the most magnificent grapes bring 2 shillings a pound on an average, and that fine peaches bring two shillings per dozen. He quotes plums at 1 shilling per sieve and pears at 2s to 4 shillings per bushel, and says they are scarcely salable at any price. Apples, alone, says Mr. Blackmore,. wotud rive a fair return, If the British farmers only had them. In face of these facts. Walcn can only become more adverse every -year, Mr. BUckmore expresses the opinion that it would be a cruel deception to tallc of profitable fruit growing in England. W. N. White, of Covent Garden market, to-day in a column tells that the trouble is the fact that the bulk of English fruit trees are maggotty, while in America the fruit grower destroys the moth by washing the trees. Up to a fortnight ago 4 shillings was t'he top price for the best English pears. At the same time he was selling thousands of forty-pound cases of California pears at 10 shillings to 14 shillings per case. In conclusion Mr, White says: "The public are the best judges, and they prefer to pay this price for a first-class article than to buy English pears at 2 shillings and 4 shillings per bushel." The Times, commenting upon the subject. Temarks: "Foreign competition Is increasing and must be expected to increase. Covent Garden prefers the finest foreign fruit to home-grown fruit, and we suppose it follows the public taste." A Free Trade Love Feant. LONDON, Sept. 21.

The community ought to know Dr. Parkhurst well enough by this time to feel convinced that he is no babbler and the maker of no npty accusation. Something of a bluster has been observed because he hns seen fit recently to intimate that the judiciary of New York, not the whole of It, Is chained by unworthy Influences. ul:d It has been said that h? will b-.- .. lied lcfore the grand Jury to rep-.it his accusations and furnish proofs. Grand juries have hitherto had some experience with Dr. Parkhurst, and has found that he does not go before them unfortified. His special reference was to a system which compels the Tammany candidates for juds o pay large sums of money, .alld by way of euphemism "assessments" Tor thir :iominations. Dr. Parkhurst says that no juJi;? who paid to an association a sum ! money under cover of assessment, or any other way, as an equivalent for ih nomination, Is a free agent while sitting on the bench. He has been more dilatory than b? has the repute of being if he is lot able to show that certain judges have paid such assessments. Was it not Roer A. I'ryor, nimseir a Judge, who publicly denounc?d a practice which compelled a J'idge to deliver up a considerable portion of ids s-ilary In advance before he could obtain a i oniinatlon? One of the Judges cf the Ligner court. who did not himself have a pennv. was assessed $15,000, and two of Ids friends. both of them prominent, both it thenj rich, advanced him the sum until he could save enough from hU salary to pay the loan, and it ' was several yars before h was able to do that. Another juJre. when he was a candidate, according to common report, borrowed $10,ouu asess?J from a money-lender shark, and it has -iso been a matter of common rrport that this Judge was not able to collect nis aUry, Ir.t that it was collected for this money lender, v.ho, having taken his share from it. paid over the balance to the Judge. It I. probable that an investigation would shcrw that a considerable number of the judge hava paid for so-called assessments sums equivalent to 10 per cut. of the aprc.rate smIary for their entire term. This evil Is that to which Dr. Parkhurst had especial reference when he r-poke recently of vicious customs which have prevailed with the Judiciary of New York. It. Is hardly a matter for the grand Jury, but it is decidedly a matter lor public cognizance, and If there should be completa' exposure of thii system it ought to inake an end of it. hay fi:vi:ii OIJK.

What is It that comes to men and women on a particular day and a pecini hour with mathematical certainty, vear after year, tickling the nostrils., suffusing the membranes of every sense, choking on with asthma, filling the eye3 with scalding tears, undertoning the entire nervous system and , transforming the mildest mannered man into a double-breasted fiend? It's hay fever. And what is hay fever? Many men of many minds and many sufferers with many kinds. .No two patients, no two victims present the same symptom of this extraordinary affliction. Remedlea which afford spasmodic and temporary relief to one are of no earthly account to miother, and the medicaments which find, favor in the eyes of the sick somewhat relieved this year are valueless and ot no earthly consequence the following year. There are hav fever associations all over the country, but the only point on which: they harmonize, the only plank to ie found in the constitution of one and all alike, is the methodlcity of the rrlodicty of thl.i extraordinary inf elicit y. Sometmes a fellow sneezes all day and sleeps well at night: then again his head ts as clear a a bell from 10 in the morn until 10 at night, but he is compelled to suffer th tortures of the damned from midnight until cock-crow.
