* t THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON D.C., MONDAY, NOVEMBER 30. 1891—TEN PAGES: — + THE INTERIOR DEPARTMENT. foints Made by Secretary Noble in His An- nual Report. WHAT HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED BY THE DIFFER- ENT BUREAUS UNDER HIS CONTROL—PROGRESS OF THE INDIANS TOWARD CITIZENSHIP—BAFID | SETTLEMENT OF PENSION CLAIMS. A rapid but complete view of the operations f the Interior Department ¢ ‘¢ the past ear is given by Secretary Noble in his annual yeport. He states that the general land office fg nearly abreast of its work; the Indian bureau is necomplishing the rapid disintegration of the Indian reservations, the severance of the tribal flations and the education of the Indian outh. The pension office is rapidly complet- + the allowance of all pensions legally possi- Ble under the laws, moving at the rate of about 99,000 2 month; the census has been taken and ts publications rapidly going on: the geologi- al survey is keeping up its admirable work and is setecting the reservoirs for the arid ts < the far west and southwes Ge raivoed barena is making ready for the maturity of the debts dus f-om the kubsi- dized railroads, the Union Pacific and others; the burean of education, besides having dis- tributed the vast fund allowed the agricultural colleges for white and colored pupils in the different states, is engaged in new plans for the accumulation and distribution of information usefnl for the «chools and their better manage- ment, and the patent office having celebrated its centennial is still advancing in the volume and veriety of its interesting and great inves- tigations and patents. Lesides all these the manazement of the Yellowstone Nationa! Park, the Yosemite National Park, the Sequoia Na- tional Park, the Hot Springs of Arkansas and of the other institutions under the Secretary, almost endless in number, is reviewed with care and many valuable suggestions made as to each. INDIANS BECOMING CITIZENS. reviews in detail the work of the import- ant bureaus connected with the department. ‘The history is given of the opening of the new Indian purchases in Oklahoma, under the proclamation of the President, on September 22, 1891, when nearly a million acres were ken by settlers between noon and dark: while 8 Indians were elevated to citizenship by taking allotments of I acres each. It is stated that, as before, so at this second contest of thousands of our citizens seeking personal advantages under the most exciting and trying circumstances, the sense of justice and regard for law controlled all alike to such a degree that there was no oecasion for interference t military force, and the only injuries received wore purely necidental. en 16,000 Indians have already become citizens of the United States and about 4,000 more by taking their allotments have sign:tied their desire to become citizens. To these num- ders should be added the 7.619 Indians in Okla- oma who have taken or agreed to take uilot- ments. A total of 27.619 Indians naturalized and total of acres acquired for jement of about 25,000,000 during the present administra- tion alone. ‘THE TRIGA SS PROPLEM. Much prominence is given in the report gn the subject of reservoirs and irrigation ditches for storing surplus water of the streams and conveying it to arid lands. Under existing laws private corporations and associations are, the Secretary suggests, given the control of the water supply of the vast domain that may be reclaimed by irrigation and this field is being rapidiy seized upon. The United States, by sufficient ditches would nited States may not end undertake the work it would sem to absvlutely essential that the: be reserved to the government power of for- feiture and re<umption in case of great abuse, er donilict of interest i» he states, of of alitwing the irrigation of the fielic described | Naval ‘Acauemy, with the requirement that | tof nto the hands of monopoiists without | oniy such cadets as show special aptitude for sufticent prote a for the people.

It is aiso deemed. the act of Me ject, there hs ve 1891, relating to this sub- filed maps of Jo- already bee cati y-ohe reservoirs and forty-six canals, the canals and ditehes being 631.65 miles in length. ‘Th deems this subject one of great a: importance ndations made in urges th hout deiay, Jetermining the national polie this subject. PAYMENT OF PENSIONS. The Secretary refers to the relief afforded by the act of June 27, 189, to nds of disabled veterans and their dependent rela- tives, who through lapse of time are not able to prove the origin of disability in the line of duty as required by prior enactments. While the amount expended in payment of pensions is large there is no purpose, in the opinion of the Secretary.to which it could be more benefi- cently applied than payments to those to whom the nation owes its preservation and present greatness, and there is no other ex- penditure involving so great an amount that would not be severely criticised and opposed With the utmost resistance. Itis shown that first payments have greatly decreased in amounts, that the allowances of original pensions will soon be made, that there will then be a great decline in the sum neces- sary to pay pensions, and the lists will rapidly decline from death and other causes. It is wedicted that the pensions will, when the Eigacst point is reached, not exceed very greatly the present sum, and be subject to a great decrease immediately after. ‘The esti- mate for 1893 is $144,966, 000. HONESTY OF THE CENSUS. The Secretary expresses the belief that the eleventh census will stand as much fair and honest criticism as any work of the same mag- nitude heretofore done either at home or abroad. The work has been done accurately and more rapidly than at any previous census, and the great bulk of it is completed. The per capita cost has been about the same as that of the tenth census and the estimated total cost and, renewing the rece his sx be ‘ehen- upon will, after allowing for the usual progressive enhancement p pita cost of successive cen- suses. not exceed other enu ations. ‘The ‘a mn November not been changed ment the apportion- arly two Yeats sooner 8 estimated nsus that to and upon that ann ment law was passed ni than at prior census pe by the superintendent of complete the work, including the inquiries authorized by Congress after the original a propriation was made, will require « further |ppropriation of about £1,000,00). THE NATIONAL PARK ‘The Secretary suggests th»: the purpose of Congress in pincing the Yosemite Valle> Park under the control of the state of Cuif-rnis was to secure the perpetuation of its natv.ai beauty and attractiveness, and while authority was conferred to lease certain portions, the proceeds to be applied to beneficial improvements, this was evidently intended to apply only to such rtions as should be necessary for appropriate ildings for the entertamment of tourists without marring the natural features of valley. It was not contemplated that it should Le turned into a farm or stock ranch. If this be the true construction the statute has becn misinterpreted by the management, and the Secretary deems the matter of such importance that provision should be made by appropria- tion for further mvestigation and report ‘The Sequeia National Park has also been an- der the immediate supervision of a military force under the diteetion of the Interior De- partment. The trees kave been protected, all sheep excluded, and every precaution taken to festore the park to its original condition and to make ita pleasant and profitable resort. ‘The giant forest covers four or five sections and is in its natural state except for a few smail exbins and some fenced ground. One tree is thirty-four and one-balf feet iz diameter and Ofect high. It is recommended that the boundaries of the park be extended by adding three townships cn the eastand the Kings river region and Kaweah and Tule Sequoia groves ‘THE NICARAGUA caNAL. In reference to the Nicaragua canal the Secre- tery states: It seemsapprepriate that this great Bighway for the products and manufactures from and imports to the United States should Le connected with the Department of the In- terior. It is being built at the same time that the great waste "places of the coyntry are being opened to setticment, the fact@Mes increasing. the railroads extending, and the population rapidly multiplying. Soon our commerce must Teach not only the states of South Americaand Mexico, bat China and the east by this westera route. it is gratifying to note that this short Passage to seme of the greatest commerciai Markets of the world will be ready by the time & demand for it becomes imperative. es Columbus Will Probably Stick. A Columbus, Ohio, dispateb, sent last night, sys: Mess Von dor Abe of St Louis, Phelps , Hart of Boston and Williams of of Louisvili Chicago are im the eity today in conference with the directors of the Columbus Club. It is @cnounced that Columbus will hold ber place im the association. ‘The cireuit for 1892 will be announced ins few dayy acd will include the | COMMODORE MELVILLE’S REPORT. Progress Made on the Machinery for the New Cruisers, Commodore Melville, chief of the burean of | steam engineering, in his annual report to the Secretary of the Navy says that such excellent progress has been made in the construction of the machinery for the new cruisers Cincinnati and Raleigh that it will be ready for the vessels when the hulls are completed. Ip quality of workmanship and cost this work is said to com- pere favorably with that done in any private establishment. th the new type of machinery in the navy the facilities possessed by this bureau elve- where will soon be found insufficient, and in case of an emergency entirely inadequate. It is proposed to add to them by completing the shops in the League Island yard, because of all places on the Atlantic coast the Delaware river is the best adapted for iron and steel ship building, and board after board pointed to relect a place for naval establishment bas chosen League Isiand as the best site.” Attention is also called to the climatic and | other advantages of the Norfolk navy yard, and it is aid: “The yard already poseesses a ship-building plant capable of turning out iron and steel ves- sels of any size, but the shops and tools under cognizance of this burean are not well adapted for the constrnetion of modern marine engines and boilers, though most repair work can be done. being specially deficient in modern boiler- mahing tools and facilities for moving heavy weights. To place the yard in proper condi- tion for this work will require the erection of an erecting shop into which the heavier tools, together with some new ones, be placed and an overhead traveling crane fitted; a com- plete set of powerful modern boiler-making tools and overhead cranes in the boiler shop. To carry out the above will require an appro- priation of at least $49,795." As to the personnel of the engineer corps he says: “It is with regret that I am again com peiled to report that the number of engineer odicers is insufficient for the proper perform- ance of the duties belonging to them, and to size the fact that unless measures are at taken ta remedy this condition and to stop the steady decrease in numbers we shall before long have a painful awakening by. a serious breakdown or accident on some of our | vessels, There is a limit to even a naval engi- neer's endurance; aud while the officers of the engineer corps will do their best to make all needed repairs and keep in efficient cond tion the magnificent machinery of the new vessels, from which the country justly expects so much and in which it takes a proper pride, they can go no further than the limit of their physical strength. When this has been reached the machinery must take care of itself.” he report points out at length the different conditions that exist in the navy asa result of the substitution of modern steel vessels for the | old wooden ships,with their simple machinery. It shows howcollisions and other accidents have resulted from insuilicient engineer force on vessels and how the pressing demands of the service have caused the abandonment of Work of great value to the country—< plished through the detail of engineer officers Ss instructors ia technical schools and co leges. Commodore Melville says: “The number of jengineer officers should be at least 300, and even this number will be inadequate unless supplemented by a sufficient number of intelli- tand skilled artiticers and well-trained tire- men. ‘The divistons into grades should be in accordance with the duty to be performed,and, as far as practicable, arranged so as to give reasonable promotion in order to keep the ablest young men in the corps. At present we are constantly losing bright and promising yous men by reason of slow promotion and over- work. : fie would also draw upon the technical | hools of the country for half of the young cers to take a two years’ practical” pos duate course at sea.” The increase should, | stated, be made gradually: at the rate of | nty per year. A special course of engineer- ing Is recommended to be provided for at the | desirable that au advanced school of instruc tion for engineer officers Le provided. genie sss ROBRERIES OF THE MAILS. Annual Report of Chief Post Office Inspector M. D. Wheeler, In his annual report M. D. Wheeler, the chief of the post office inspectors, states that the past year has been singulariy free from great disas- ters and crime that doso much to prejudice the service. There have been, the report says, those in service who bave not been able to withstand temptation, who have fallen, and whose ill-considered pilferings have, in a meas- ure, invited criticism from the public, but no great defaleation, no great robbery or loss, bas blackened the record of the department or thwarted its efforts to secure the peopie. The improvement in the personnel of force is shown by the statement that while the total number of arrests is greater by 199 than | last year, the number of postal employes of ail kinds arrested is forty-five less. OF the arrests 31 per cent were convicted, as aguinst 29 per cent the previous year. The number of post offices robbed in which arrests were made was 178, and for the previous year 131. The total number of offices thus robbed was 863, four less than the year previous. ihe number of stage couches carrying the United States mails “held up” and robbe: by highwaymen was forty-eight, a decrease of three. “Of quese robberies seventeen occurred im the southern states, twenty-cight in the far west, one in New England and two in the mid- die states Restoration of money lost in the mails was made in 1,195 cases, the amount being $21,- 369.90, as compared with 1,190 cases the year before and $14,969.17. ——— He Claims That Orthodox Catholicism 1s Incompatible With Patriotism. Dr. McGlynn, addressing an audience last night in New York, said of his refusal to go to Rome when summoned that he “feared that means, of which the Church of Rome knew so well how to command, would be used to keep him there.” He said farther: “Early in Jan- uary, 1887, Archbishop Corrigan actually sent word to # priest that he might say tome that I might consider the suspension at an end, but he would prefer that I should say mass only privately.” Concluding, Dr. MeGlynn said: “I, ag cn American citizen [loud applause), was sup- | Poxed to be w subject under the control of the archbishop, and although I was an American citizen 1 was supposed to give up my manhood and obey the order to break my engagement to speak at that memorable meeting at Chickering Hall I thought the matter over and concluded that rather than break my engagement I would xo behind w screen and ‘consent to have my | head chopped off. What haa the Cathohe church to do with teaching political economy any more than teaching geography or cos- mography? : “Ihe world has learned too much, has seen too much to wait upon these gentlemen to get permission to admit scientific facta. It has got se that one eanuot bea real Sunday school, goody-goody kind of Catholic without being unpatriotic and untrue to bis country. “I have gone through the Red sea of sorrow and bitterness and have got on the other side, and zow Lam not particularly anxious to wade back again.” [Long and continued cheering.) — Wreck;of a Piratical Craft.

Se His Philadelphia Physician Said After Seeing Mr. Blaine Last Saturday. From the Philadelphia Press, Today. What Mr. Blaine learned on his visit here last Friday and Saturday may be agreat factor in the next presidential campaign. Aclose friend of the Secretary said yesterday that Mr. Blaine hesitated in his candidacy and was seriously counting the cost to his health, knowing the arduous character of such a contest and doubt- ing whether he was physically able to stand the strain. These doubts, it is said, were removed by what his physician told him. To consult his medical adviser was the prime reason for Mr. Blaine’s trip to Philadelphia. Mr. Blaine learned that he was in better health and strength now than he was four years ago, and that six months and @ year hence he would be stronger than he is now. He learned further that he is as man physically at sixty-one years, Mr. Blaine’s age, as anybody else of like ‘age. . “Ah, Mr. Blaine is getting ready to be a can- didate,” was the comment yesterday of a gen- tleman versed in national politics upon being told of the Secretary's consultation with his physician and its result. This comment re- flected the view of local politicians who learned of the matter. is what Dr. J. Madison Taylor, the phy- sician to the Secretary of State, said yesterday ian interview. Dr. Taylor thoroughly ex- amined Mr. Blaine during the latter's visit to this city and he has been asked to make this statement to put a stop to the many reports to the contrary still “Mr. Blaine is ina better condition, a great Geai better condition, than six mouths or a year ago,” added Dr. Taylor, “and so far as I can definitely say, from a careful observation of his condition and’ what has been told me of what it was before I begun to attend him, Mr. Blaine enjoys better health than he did three or four years age. Six months hence he will be even better than he is now. BLAINE A WELL MAN. “Mr. Blaine is a weil man. For his years he is sturdy. When I began to attend to Mr. Blaine last spring he was suffering from an acute illness. He was in. a very bad condition and completely broken down by overwork. I did not know what the outcome would be. Now there is no donbt in my mind. for Mr. Blaine's heaith is excellent. He ix back to his normal weight, and very good weight at that. Ho has ‘& good appetite ard he sleeps well. “Mr. Binine has got well by the exercise of common sense, not medicines. At Bar Harbor he went ont riding so far per day, walked a certain distance and played band ball a fixed length of time. In short, he conscientiow observed my advice in the matter of exercise, and now we are both very mnch gratified. Be- fore his illness Mr. Blaine was not a man who would take much exercise. Now he is the op- Posite. tie has grown to like it. Mr. Blaine wrote mea couple of weeks before his visit here that he walked abont two miles every day. Very often he says he walks a mile at stretch. A PEEP INTO THE FUTURE. “If Mr. Blaine continues to take care of him- self, as he is doing now, I see no reason why he should not live many years longer. He has entered upon the ripe age, being sixty-one years old, and he takes pleasure in his present strength.’ When Teaaminea him he pulled up his right arm and i felt his muscies. They were good and large. It is very gratifying to state that his limbs and b cular and larger than th “This is a matter of some little pride to Mr. Blaine. When I say that he will be even in better heaith in six months from now, I state as a reason that a person, say one who had been ill with typhoid, will hot recover all his former strength immediately upon He will haves heavy feeting in his hmbs, &. This will gradually work off day by day until he finds himselt sturdy, quick and fuii of bright heaith.” ————+e+—. MANY KILLED AND INJURED. armeare more nus- y have been for years. A Rear-End Collision on the Lake Shore Neur Toledo. The Boston and Chicago Lake Shore special, going east, which left Chicago at 10:30 a, Saturdey, had just passed turongh the tunnel which rans under the Miami canal, on the edge of Toledo, but not getting the signal at the target to come ahead put on brakes and slick- ened up. The routh-bound express on the Flint and Pere Marquette road, which goes over the Lake Shore tracksto the Union depot. came through the tunnel immediately after the the Lake Shore train and piunged into the rear conch, The Lake Shore train was vestibuied, but an ordinary coach for the accommodation of way passengers was attached at the rear and it was this which suffered. ‘The Flint and Pere Marquette engine plowed its way through the car until the pilot was more than midway of the coach. The seats and floor were torn up and the unfortunate passengers. bruised and maimed, were badiy scalded by the escaping steam from tho broken pipes. KILLED AND INJURED. ‘The list of casualtics is as follows: Mrs. Susan McCoy, Saginaw, Mich., killed; Infant Me- Donald, eighteen months old, New York city, killed: sou of Mrs. McDonald, aged eight, dead; Miss Ellen Meyers, Cleveland, will probably die; Thomas McQueen, Eikhart, Ind., will probably die; Mrs. Nelson, Toledo. badly scalded; 8.

He ran about fifty feet to the mouth of the tunnel and waved bis lantern across the irack. ‘The tunnel was full of smoke. but the engineer of the Flint and Vere Marquette train, which was slrendy in the tunnel, saw the signal and also the rear lights of the doomed car. He shut oT steam and he and bis tiremar threw themselves tlat on the flaor of the cub so as to be protected by the boile-. Both escaped un- hurt except a severe shaking up. No one in either train was hurt save those in the wrecked day coach and the conducto: of the Flint aud Pere Marquette train.

A Blizzard of Almost Unprecedented Severity Strikes Norfoik. A severe storm raged throughout Virginia yesterday. Norfolk was a winter city. A bliz- zard of severity almost unknown in that section struck the city, beginning about 2 o'clock in the morning, accompanied by slect, which later turned into a heavy snow, which now lies seven or cight inches deep on the level and has drifted much deeper in places. For the first time in several years sleighs were on the streets last night. Street car travel was interrupted and a semblance of a schedule was kept up only by the clearing of the way by a snow plow. The Day steamer arrived a little bebind time yester- day morning, but did not go out last night. ‘The wind, which at Cape Henry reached fifty miles an was off shore, therefore no disas- ters to shipping were expected. ‘The coust tele- graph line to Kitty Hawk is all right, and as nothing has been reported it is supposed no wrecks have occurred.

A lion tamer named Delmonico was going through a rehearsal of an intended performance. The two lions selected as his subjects were not acquainted with Delmonico and showed some ill temper when the tamer approached them. This did not deter Deimonico, who had un- bounded faith in the ability of his eye and nerve to subdue the wildest beast of the forest.

The archbishop of Aix celebrated mass in the Basilica at Lyons, France, yesterday morn- ing. In the course of his address the arch- bishop referred to his recent trial before the court. He did not regret what he had done, he said, and the fact that a fine had been sub- jected would not have the effect of silencing him, When the archbishop was leaving the cathedral the congregation rose en masse and called out “Vive Soulard.” ‘The archbishop paused and responded to this manifestation. “Not vive Soulard,” he said, “but vive le con- damne.” The people then, taking him at his word, cried again: ¢'Vive le condamue” atl the cardinal drove away in his carriage. peel hdels ted peti Written for The Evening Star, The Stérm King.
