Of the Three Surplus Naval Cadets, In the assignment of the naval cadets to duty it is found that there were three graduates for whom there were no va- cancies in the line. ‘Under the statute of 1894 surplus grad- uates of the Naval Academy in the line ean be assigned by tho Secretary of the Navy to the engineer corps of the navy, although they are in the line division, pro- vided they are reported by the academic board at the Naval Academy as proficient and are recommended for such assignment. But the academic board refused to recom- mend these graduates because they had not passed a satisfactory examination in engineering, and therefore. under tha law, they could not be assigned to the engineer corps. Secretary Herbert was willing that the three cadets should have a re-examina- tion, and so telegraphed the academic beard, but the board refused to allow the re-examination. -——+ e+ _____ For Speculative Purposes, It is stated that Cuban bords on the Paris bourse are being much affected by the various reports as to the progress of the Cuban uprising, and officials are of the opinion that many of the reports of vic- tory and defeat are systematically- cir- culated for speculative purposes, The Cuban bonds are Issued by Spain, but are distinct from the regular Spanish bonda, so that they can be readily manipulated by reports concerning Cuba.

AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT | About $700,000 Will Be Covered Into the Treasury Unexpended. Changes Made in the Work and Or- ganization—Bureaus Abolished and Those That Have Been Created. The annual reports of the several bureaa officers of the Agricultural Department for the fiscal year just ended will show a gen- eral pruning of expenses. The figures in Secretary Morton’s report will show that the regular expenditures for the depart- ment during the year aggregated about $1,890,000, The appropriation for the same period reached $2,56.915. There will there- fore be covered back into the treasury about $700,000. Last year $627,115 was cov- ered back into the treasury. The exact figures fo: 63,500 appro- priated; $1, Another fact to which attention will be called in the forthcoming reports ts that, with a few ex- tion, ail offices in ue department are nov ceptions include the Secretary, ‘the ent secretary, their private secretaries a several laborers, Important Changes Made. Several important changes in work and organization are noted in connection with the close of the al year. Two divis- fons, one of agrostology and the other of egricuitural soils, have been created and now go into effect. Prof. Lamson Scribner is chief of the former and Prof. Milton Whitney is at the head of the other. Both have been in charge of the work coming under the new divisions for some time, but now supervise the investication on these lines as chiefs of independent divisions. As a@ result of a recent legislative enactment, the division of records and editing ceases to exist and becomes the division of publi- cation, with Mr. George William Hill re- appointed chief. The division of microscopy is abolished by order of Secretary Mortoa, and Its chief, Dr. Thomas Taylor, with two assistants, retire from the service. A dairying division has been created, and goes into operation as a part of the bureau of animal industry. Maj. H. E. Alvord of Virginia is chief. The rearrangement of the system of gathering crop statistics, substituting agents for each of the twenty- one groups of states, instead of haying agents for the individual states, also takes effect. The policy of the department as will be outlined is to secure for these offices persons of marked ability, and especially those connected with the agricultural col- leges. Bureau of Animal Industry. The new regulations of the bureau of animal industry take effect immediately. They materially extend the authority of the Secretary of Agriculture over the dis- position of diseased animals and their car- casses. The regulations authorize the Sec- retary to make such rules and regulations as may be necessary to prevent the trans- portation of diseased animal carcasses be- tween states and to foreign countries. The Secretary is now empowered to enforce tanking of all such carcasses, where here- tofore that was accomplished only by con- cession or agreement of the abattoir calling for the inspection. The following special investigations carried on last year will be continued through this year: Nutrition for human beings, conducted by Special Agent W. O. Atwater; phenomena of thunder and lightning, by Alexander McAdie; those of grasses and soils; the road inquiry, con- ducted from its inception by Gen. Roy Stone; irrigation problems, Col. Irish; tests of timber, by Prof. B. E. Fernow, and food of plants, by Prof. H. W. Wiley. For the practical work in the experiments on the last two subjects separate buildings have been erected on the Agricultural Depart- ment grounds. —_+-e VIENNA’S COUNCIL An exciting and unusually meeting of the corporation council of Vienna, Va. was held last night. The special occasion was the organization of the new council, and the outcome was ertirely different from what most of the citizens of the place expected, and for that matter the councilmen themselves. Those who were elected members at the election in May were Messrs. E. L. S. Bou- ton, A. C. Stotts, E. A. Burk, Robert W. Cox, A. M. Lewis, H. A. Money, L. L. Freeman, Dr. R. D. Leith and Lieutenant John 8. Bukey, At the hour of meeting last night it was found that Mr. Money Was not present. The outgoing mayor, Major O. E. Hine, who, under the law, would hold on until his successor was elected and qualified, sent a messenger after Mr. Money, but the latter sent back word that he did not Intend to accept the place to which he had been elected. Mr. William Bowman was then nomi- nated for the vacancy, and when the votes were counted, the council being empowered to fill all vacancies that may occur in their kcdy, the result was a tie, one of the mem- bers not yoting. Mayor Hine“then cast his vote for Mr. Bowman, and the Mtter was declared elected. Mr. Bowman declined, however, to serve, and then Major Hine was’elected to succeed him. This made Mayor Hine eligible for re-election to the mayoralty, and to this he was next chosen by the votes of all present and voting, one member declining, as in the previous in- stance, to cast his ballot. The other old officers were re-elected, as follows: W. H. Bowman, sergeant and treasurer; H. A. Bowman, clerk, and H. A. Money, overseer of streets. The committees of the last council were then practically re-elected. es The Anti-Saloon Lengue. The Anti-Saloon League held a meeting last night for general business. Brief serv- ices were held in respect to the late Carle- ton Snell, and addresses were made by C. O. Bohrer and Mrs. H, H. Gilman. Dele- gates were recsived and enrolled from the Newman Loyal Temperance Legion of the First Congregational Church. In the course of the evening's conference it was stated that the execiticn of the law against saloonkeepers who violate the regulations is obstructed by officers who are regular patrons of the places, and that such officers should be brought to account. interesting For the Newsboys’ Home. Judge Hagner has decreed that the News- boys and Children’s Ald Society of the Dis- trict shall receive the bequest of $31,524.10, made several months ago by the will of the late Anna M. Mauisby.-The terms of the will were in doubt, and a friendly suit was brought against Loutsa D. Lovett and Ida Corson, the adminisiratrices. The News- boys’ Home is now allowed to purchase the real estate at the corner of 3d and C strests rorthwest, and also chattels and necessary furniture, with this money. The place is to be called the George Maulsby | Memorial Home, according to Mrs. Maulsby’s will. a National Bank Note Circulation. The monthly statement of the controller of the currency shows the amount of na- tional bank notes outstanding June 30, 1895, to have been $211,000,698, which is an increase for the year of $4,341,391. ‘The increase for the month of June is § based on United States bonds, “I$, an increase for the year of $5, Pla cadi ton cue cmenth Ge suo os amount of. lawful money secure circula B a decrea The amount of United S$ bo: sit to secure lation $207,680,800, of which $10,463,500 was in the 4 per cents of 1895.

Conditions in Atlanta Different From Those in Washington—His Observations. Yesterday -afternocn the health officer made a report to the Commissioners upon the merits of the Dixon crematory, which is the crematory the garbage contractor Proposed to use if the Commissioners ap- proved. Dr, Woodward's conclusion, as stated In yesterday's Star, was that the Dixon system would not be suitable to Washington. In his report he describes the apparatus used at considerable length. He says: “In order to understand the work of the crematory at Atlanta it 1s necessary to know that the city collects all house waste, and that, excluding night. soil, is separated into two classes only, the ashes being kept in one receptacle and all other waste in the other. The latter receptacle therefore con- tains old paper, pasteboard boxes, parts of wooden boxes, excelsior, animal and veg- etable waste, discarded shoes, etc., and the entire mixture, regardless of its component parts, is called ‘garbage.’ The word ‘gar- bage,’ wherever used in Atlanta reports, refers to this mixed material. The refuse denominated in Washington ‘garbage’ is known in Atlanta as ‘swill’ or ‘slops.’ There is no way of determining or even forming an soproximate estimate of the per cent of 4 or of combustible and of non-combustible waste collected in the At- lanta ‘garbage.’ It is impossible to deter- mine, therefore, the amount of swill which this furnace can consume, and the amount of fuel required for a given amount of swill, the amount of combustible garbage being an unknown quantity in estimating the amount of fuel. An Objectionable Dump. “It has been rercrted,” he says, suits were pending to compel the d tinuance of the use of this crematory suits which have given rise to this report were not directed egainst the crematory itself. One sought to restrain the city from using ‘the tract of land upon which the crematory is situated for its present pur- poses, viz. the deposit of refuse matter. This would have prevented indirectly the use of the crematcry, but that was not its main object. The suit was unsuccess- ful. Later an atterspt was made to recover damages from the city on account of the alleged nuisance arising from the dump. This case has been tried very recently, and after hearing testimony for five days the judge dismissed the suit. As nelther case was successful it is of no great imp yet it may be worth while, in pa nete that on the ground which occ these suits there are dumped daily, burning, about 316 loads of ‘garbage” without and street sweepings, and there are pitted 300 barrels of night soil; this in addition to the 70 loads of garlage and 120 barreis of night soil which are burned. There are daily deposited hereabouts 192 tons of waste mat- ter of all kinds and 420 barrels of night soil. The city is at present arranging to secure crematory capacity enough to cre- mate all garbage and night soil. Dr. J. F. Alexander, president of the board of health; Dr. F. W. McRae, its secretary, and Thomas E. Veale, chief inspectdr, state that’ the Dixon crematory meets perfectly all conditions existing in Atlanta, and they are each of the opinion that it can be operated in any part of the city without creating a nuisance.” Dr. Woodward then described his own observation of the opera- tion of the furnace, agreeing in his con- clusions substantially with the conclusions of the Atlanta officials so far aS Atlanta is concerned. Not Adapted to Washington. “Tt will be seen,” says Dr. Woodward, “that the problem which has been solved in Atlanta is very different from the one to be solved here. Representations which have been made as to the possibilities of the Dixon ecrematory in the way of de- stroying ‘garbage’ must be considered as referring to the ‘garbage’ of Atlanta, aud not to the ‘swill’ of Washington. This matter was carefully gone over with Mr. H. A. Andrews, manager southern depart- ment, Dixon Sanitary Company. I am of the opinion, and in this Mr. Andrews agrees, that the Dixon crematory could not be satisfactorily operated in Wash- ington for the following reason “1. The free water collected with swill would find its way through the grate and seriously interfere with, if not extinguish, the lower fire. The small particles of swill would pass between the grate bars in consider- able quantities, and, being constantly toaked by water from above, would not be consumed by the iower fire, if such fre ceuld be maintained. “3. The swill resting on the grate would be a solid mass, incombusiible until It dried, which process would take a long time, as the flame would only attack the surface and not eat its way through and through, as tn Atlanta ‘garbage.’ “4. The absence of the large amount of ccmbustible material, such as is found in tWe Atlanta ‘garbage,’ would necessitate the purchase of a much larger amount of fuel. While under the Atlanta system the fuel Is evenly mixed with the garbage, in Washington it could only be applied’ at one end. This, too, would necessitate further increase in the amount of fuel used, the flame having to pass twenty-five to cover the garbage. Night soil would find its way throughs the grate too rapidly to be burned, having ne absorbent bed, as paper, ete., (@ retain a Funeral of William Hf. Cromeline. The funeral of Mr. William H.
