COMMODOR# FULTON'S RESIGNATION axD MR. ‘TRACY'S TRIP TO NORFOLK—THE SECRETARY WILL PERSONALLY INVESTIGATE DELAYS IX THE ADMINISTRATION OF AFFAIRS—CHANOES, Secretary Tracy today sailed from the navy yard on board the U.4.5. Despatch, bound for Norfolk, where he will investigate the of the delayin the completion of the new cruiser Baltimore, which isreceiving her finish- ing touches at the Portsmouth yard. This ex- pedition is thought to Be the precursor of an extremely vigorous. policy in the future with relation to the domestic affairs of his de- partment that may be followed by some sur- prising changes in the method of doing busi- ness, He assisted in a rather interesting scene at the department yesterday afternoon, during which he and the paymas- ter general of the navy, Commodore Fulton, had some warm words that led to the presentation of the latter's resignation as chief of the bureau of provisions and clothing. The Secretary did not hesitate about ac- cepting it, but forwarded it at once to the President for final action, This morning just before he left the city he desig- nated Commodore Dewey, chief of the bureau of equipment and recruiting, to act as paymas- ter eral pending the appointment of Com- modore Fulton's successor. HOW IT CAME ABOUT. ‘There were many reasons given by the gossips around the department this morning, the favorite one being that the Secretary was dissatisfied with the workings of the bureau of provisions and clothing, with relation to bh lente es for material for the new ships, ly the Baltimore, and expos- tulated with the ebief, who resented the crit- icisms, Some said that Commodore Fulton had written a sarcastic letter to Commo- dore Met commandant of the Boston navy yard, which the latter had returned to a friend in power, very near the secretary, who had in turn own it to his chief, Mr, Tracy. The Secretary then, the story called Com. Fulton aa asked sep pp marae which _ Rot forthcoming in = factory manner, This is the statement that artly su ted by E “hoats i around that Commodore of the bureau of navigation, said Ray 7» ch! recently that Fulton would do well to look after the affairs of his own bureau. To a Stag reporter this morning Commodore Ramsay said that it would be better not to go into the matter of the reasons for the resigna- tion, adding: “Commodore Fulton probably got tired of being a target.” CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTS. It is certain that there has been an unhealthy amount of friction between Commodore Fulton and his bureau and the rest of the de- partment for sometime. In the first place he Was @ warm advocate of what is known as the Whitney system of. consolidated accounts in- ——— by the last administration. ben Mr. Tracy began work at the tiller ropes he would not let body offer the leat criticism of the system, which he intended to keep in vogue, This system has enemies in every bureau, who are now looking for- Me fe a te tee d to it that th: tt is said by those oppose at the sys- tem operates to the anny of the work in hand, muking it nec to occupy from 60 to 90 days in the routine of obtaining a single requi- sition, The law requires 30 days’ advertise- ment, whereas the bureau folks say that a week is ample time. THE GECRETARY “STIRRED Ur." The unnecessary delays on the various works have at last come sharply to the notice of the Secretary, and it is considered likely that the scene at the department day and his departure this thorning indicate hie. intention of making « personal investigation into the sys- tem that may resultin some radical changes. An officer described him this morning as being “thoroughly stirred up.” WHY COMMODORE DEWEY WAS DESIGNATED. It was necessary to designate Commodore Dewey to act at the head of the bureau because of the fact that a successor to the ex-chief clerk of the bureau cannot be appointed until the expiration of his leave of absence, March 25. He resigned some time ago to take effect then. Anew man has been determined upon, named Gulick, but he will be unqualified by law for ten days, It is the law that in the absence of a chief of bureau the chief clerk shall act, and in the absence of a chief clerk the President shall designate an officer for the duty. COMPANIONS OF HIS VOYAGE. Secretary Tracy in his Norfolk trip is accom- panied by his daughter and granddaughter, Mrs, and Miss Wilmerding, and by Lieut, and Mrs. T. B, M. Mason, They will return Tuesday evening. The Sec- retary will probably not be able to attend the launch of the new cruiser Newark at Philadel- phia next Wednesday, The President may possibly ga, THE CASE OF JUDGE KINCAID. He is Suffering From Nervous Prostra- tion—Talk of Placing Him in a Hospital. The grand jury not having been in session today no further action was taken in the case of Charles E. Kincaid, charged with the kill- ing of ex-Representative Taulbee. It is under- stood, however, thata presentment has been found on which the district attorney will pre- pare the indictment, and that it will be passed on by the grand jury early in the week, Judge Kincaid was looking fairly well and in apparent good spirits this morning, but last evening suffered froman attack of nervous rostration. The frequency of these attacks gins to tellon his general health and his appearance and actions, and cause some ap- It is more than ikely that if the indictment is not presented early in the week and some arrangement 1s not made for his enlargement on bail that efforts will be made for having him placed in @ hospi- tal under police surveilance. a a The Seal Fisheries Lease. Secretary Windom today made public the exact terms of the lease to the North American commercial company for a term of twenty years from May 1, 1890, of ‘the exclusive right to engage in the business of taking for seals on the islands of St. George and St. Paul in the territory of Alaska and to send « vessel or ves- sels to said islands for the skins of such seals.” The company agrees to pay an annual rental of $60,000, a tax of $9.62¢ on each skin taken and shipped, and (0 cents for each gallon of oilsold, The company is to deposit United States bonds of $50,000 face value as security for the rental.

The bill also provides that it shall be the duty of the Commissioners to grant the company permission to maintain and use side tracks from the main lines of the road into any real estate in the city abutting on the streets or avenues on which such lines may be situated, which may be used for manufac- turing or commercial purposes by parties de- airing the use of such facilities, ‘The bill then provides that the company be authorized to acquire for the purposes of its business any one or more of the squares south of the line of the railroad and north of street and north of the Eastern branch and east of 13th street southeast, and any one or butting on the line of the rail- and and Virginia avenues and to ke into such property, All the tracks provided for are to be laid under the direction of the Commissioners, and in cases where purchase of such land is impossible con- demnation is provided for. A FEDERAL ELECTION LAW. Provisions of Mr. Lodge’s Bill Introduced in the House Today. Representative Lodge introduced his much- talked-of federal election bill in the House to- day. The bill is a combination of the Aus- tralian system with federal control of elec+ tions, The Australian system, as in force in Massa- chusette, is adapted and applied to the’ whole country in all congressional and presidential elections. Each polling place is put im charge of six judges or supervisors, three representing each political party. Voters who can- not read and write, and consequently cannot mark their own tickets, may have the tickets marked for them by one of the super~ visors, in the presence of another reptesent- ing the opposite party. Primarily the elections are in control of the states wherein they are held, but upon the tition of five hundred voters in any district the federal government will assume all the fano- tions of the state and take absolute control of the polls under the same regulations which ap- ply to the state control.
