Schoolboy Attempts Suicide Because of His Mother's Threat. Austin Brown Hardesty, a school boy, fourteen years old, livinging at Benning, at- tempted suicide about 9 o’clock this morn- ing by shooting himself in the head. The deed was committed before he left home for fear his mother would give him a whipping in presence of his schoolmates. ‘The boy has been attending the Benning school, and it is said that, instead of study- ing his lessons Saturday and yesterday, he spent his time at play. This morning, just before school time, his. mother talked to him about his school work, and} it is stat- ed, threatened to come over to the school and give him a public whipping, if she heard he did not know his lessons. a ing under the fear of receiving a whi; before his boy companions, A net ren upstairs and @ minute later the report of a pistol shot was heard. The boy was sound with the bullet wound back of his right ear, and his mother feared he had inflicted a fatal wound. Dr. Brayshaw was sent for, and found that only a scalp wound had been inflicted. The bullet was extracted, and the pee will probably be able to go to achool tomorrow. yas abate SS, Statement From the Vatican, TRANSPORTING TROOPS EAST Have Been Perfected by the War De- partment. PRs es Canvas Uniforma to Be Tried—Ar- rangements Made for a Coast and Gulf Signal System. ‘The War Department has perfected plans for the immediate trarsportation of all the troops at s east of the Rocky mountains, together with full field equip- ments, to the Atlantic seaboard in case of necessity. These troops are now resting on their arms awaiting orders. The ma- jority of them will be mobilized at Atlan- ta, headquarters of the new department 01 the guli, and then distributed to points wherever needed. Gen. Miles seys that facilities are ample to move 100,00¢ troops, if necessary, front the lake region ard the Ohio valley to the southern Atlantic ana gulf coasts in twenty-four hours. More time will be re- quired, of course, for the troops at more ‘distant points. Special trains will be used in the movement and ordinary traffic will be subordinated to the emergency of the case. In case hostilities assume serious proportions, it is not improbable that Gen. Miles will command the army in the field. Otherwise the command of the forces in the field will devolve either on Major Gen. Merritt, commanding the department of the east, present headquarters at New York, or on Brig. Gen. Graham, com- manding the department of the gulf, head- quarters at Atlanta. Unless otherwise or- dered, however, Gen. Graham will have command of all the troops ordered to duty in his department, which includes the coast line from Norfolk to the Rio Grande, and will orgarize them on a war basis. Troops Awaiting Orders. ‘The troops now awaiting emergency or- ders for field duty are the following: 24th Infantry (colored), Fort Douglas, Utah; 25th Infantry (colored), under orders to Key West; 3d Infantry, Fort Snelling, Minn.; 4th Infantry, Fort Sheridan, Chi- cago; 6th Infantry, Fort Thomas, Ky.; 7th Infantry, Fort Logan, Col.; 9th In- fantry, Madison barracks, New York; 10th Infantry, Fort Reno, Oklahoma; 11th In- fantry, en route to Jefferson barracks, Mo.; 12th Infantry, Fort Niobrara, Neb.; 13th Infantry, Fort Porter, N. Y.; 17th Infantry, Columbus, Ohio; ‘sth Infantry, Fort Bliss and San Antonio, Tex.; 19th Infantry, Fort Wayne, Detroit, Mich.; 20th infantry, Fort Leavenworth, Kan. 21st Infantry, Plattsburg barracks, N. Infantry, Fort Cook, Neb.; 234 Infantry, Fort Clark, Tex.; 1st Cavalry, Fort Riley, Kan.; 3d Cavairy, Jefferson barracks, Mo.; 5th Cavalry, Fort Sam Houston, Tex., and 9th Cavalry (colored). In anticipation of a possible increase in the enlisted force, requisition has been made on the government printing office for 10,000 blank regimental muster rolls. This action may have a bearing on the proposed mustering in of part of the National Guard, including the District militia. Canvas Uniforms to Be Tried. Gen. Miles, commanding the army, has ordered one hundred canvas uniforms, with a view to their.general introduction as a light and serviceable field uniform by the United States army: “It is a marked depar- ture in uniforming the army, and one in the interest of preserving the health of the men while in aetive service. The sample uniforms already ordered are of strong canvas, of fine texture, but durable mate- rial. The color is a gray brown, said to be particularly desirable in time of hostilities, as it is difficult to distinguish it from the earth, grass, corn fields or dead leaves. It is light and cool in summer and comfort- able in winter. It is also impervious to water. These canvas suits are already in use among huntsmen and frontiersmen, and are excellent for rough outdoor work. Gen. Miles’ idea has been to combine this serviceable hunting suit with enough color and adornment to gfve it a military aspect. ‘The final Cesigns show the canvas suit and buckskin leggins, with colored ‘cloth cuffs, collar, chevrons.and@ national coat-of-arms above the chevrons. The color of the cuffs, chevrons, etc., denotes the arm of the ser- vice—blue for the infantry, red for the ar- tillery and yellow for the cavairy. The hat is of ght felt or canvas, siinilar to that now worn, but turned up on the left side, with a colored rosette, indicating the arm of the service, and a short aigrette or ploom above the rosette. The knee breeches and leggins complete this serviceable mili- tary field uniform. The principal advantage of the new uni- form is that it will keep the wearer dry, and so protect him from malarial and other fevers. Gen. Miles said that nearly two- thirds of the deaths during the war of the rebellion were due to diseases resulting from the wearing of wet clothing. New Military Signal System. The Navy Department has completed ar- rangements for operating the new coast and gulf line signal system by which com- munication will be established between ships near the coast and the Navy Depart- ment. An allotment of $2,000 for each state has been made from the emergency fund for erecting tall signal poles at the prin- cipal stations, the construction of sema- phores and the purchase of flags and other signal appliances. It has been practically decided not fo use the light house stations for signal purposes, in view of their Habill. ty to be hit and destroyed by an enemy’s fire. Tall mast poles or signal stations of skeleton pattern, from which the flags may be displayed, will be used instead. Gun Cotton Adopted. The government has adopted gun cotton, one of the most powerful destroyers of the age, as the service high explosive for the great guns of warships and seacoast de- fenses. Recent tests at the Indian Head and Sandy Hook proving grounds have demonstrated the entire feasibility of firing from modern rified guns, with smokeless powder as the propelling agent, steel shells carrying heavy charges of gun cotton. The adoption of this destructive agent was hastened by the threatened rupture with Spain. It is regarded as one of the most important measures taken within the last few weeks for strengthening the national fenses. The Cost of War. A prominent officer of the army, in speak- ing today of the prospects of war, said: “Taking no account of the loss of life and the consequent increase in our pension roll, it will cost about $100,000,000 a month to carry on a war. It costs about $1,500, for instance, every time one of the big coast defense guns is fired, and an engagement between two battle ships costs about $100,- 000 an hour.” Autonomist Appeal to Insurgen: ‘The Spanish minister has received a dis- patch from Havana. stating that the au- liberty, which all. wa states that Spaip i Present scope of gest such a plan te" th soon to meet. is) peonnous tacitons Cent Seo Stole = Brick House, From the Philadelphie \Rress. cortes, which COST OF UNION BUILDING Opposition in the Senate to Its Pur + chase, Claimed That the Price Asked of the Government is Double What It is Worth. A lively debate occurred in the Senate this afternoon on the proposition that the government purchase the Union building, on G street between 6th and 7th streets, for $650,000. At 2:80 o’clock the Senate took. up the sundry civil appropriation bill, and Mr. Gallinger .asked that the committee amendment for the purchase of the Union building be disposed of at once, it having been passed over when the bill was last before the Senate, In order that Mr. Quay might furnish some further information on ‘the subject. Mr. Quay read a statement to show that the property is assessed at $173,000, and read the assessment of a number of other pieces of property to show that this assess- ment was no proof that the building was not worth $650,000. Mr. Gallinger then made a very animated speech against the amerdment. He said that since the bill was last before the Senate he had received two letters from a distinguished citizen of the District inter- ested in having the government purchase this building, and in one of these letters he was told that it cost $600,009 ard in the other $635,000. He said he proposed to show that it did not cest either of these sums or anywher2 nezr them. He said he had seen a gentleman who owned a large interest in this building some time ago, and was told by him that it was formed into a stock concern, and stock issued amounting to $384,000, some of which was purchased by the present owners at par and some below par. He said that the building could be con- structed today for $75,000 less than it cost in 1891, on account of the lower price of steel and iron work. In his judgment $300,- 000 would be a big price for the Union building. Its Estimated Cost. Mr. Gallinger further said that he had had a competent builder estimate the cost of this building and the ground on which it is located, and the evidence bore out his own conclusions. He said that the govern- ment requires a fort¥-foot space around all the public buildings it directs throughout the country, while this building has no such space. He said that if the Senate should adopt that resolution it would have a hoard of real estate owners and agents coming to Ccngress to have their properties pur- chased by the government, and he wanted to serve a notice cn all such people that the government would not purchase real estate in this city unless it actually needed the property and unless it was secured at a fair rate. Regarded as Exorbitant. Senator Elkins also opposed the amend- ment, and said he thought the price was exorbitant, and even if the building had cost the amount at which it was valued, it could be built today for 40 per cent less on account of the lower prices prevailing. Mr. Gallinger, referring to the Globe building, an amendment for the purchase of which was dcfeated in the Senate last week, sail that two or three months ago that building waa offered at private sale for $35,000, although it had been offered to the government in this appropriation bill for $45,000. : Mr. Quay said that he wished to offer an amendment to the amendment which would authorize the Secretary of the Treasury to purchase the building under condemnation Proceedings, if, in his opinion, that build- ing was needed by the government. He asked that the amendment be passed over @ short time in order that he might formu- late his amendment. Mr. Gallinger said that he would oppose the amendment even in that form, because he had had some experience with having the government purchase property under ecndemnation proceedings and said he did not think the government needed the prop- erty anyway. The amendment for the purchase of the Union building was defeated by a vote of 15 to 43, a COURT OF APPEALS DECIDES. Opinion Rendered in Cases Against Post Steamboat Company. The Court of Appeals today handed down an opinion in the consolidated cases of the Post Steamboat Company against Dariel Loughran, John A. Hamitton and others; against Robert A. Golden and others, and against Lynah and Read and others. The decree in the case against Goldea and oth- ers is affirmed, while the decrees in the other two cases are reversed in part and aflirmed in part. The opinion was written by Mr. Chief Justice Alvey. The proceeding was one in admiralt, against the steamboat John Sylvester, be- longing to the Post Steamboat Company of New Jersey. It was chartered by the Chesapeake and Potomac Steamboat Com- pany, to be run as an excursion boat on the Potomac river between this city and Colonial Beach during the summer season of 1896. The coal and all other supplies for the boat were supplied by various per- sens, and they failed to receive the amounts of their bills. Near the end of the season there were a number of Hbels filed against the John Sylvester, claiming maritime liens, seeking to have the vessel condemned and sold for the payment of the respective claims. The owners of the steamer, answering the sev- eral libels, denied the right of lien in each and all of the several cases filed, and im- sisted that there was no ground for the liens claimed. ‘The cases were referred by the court be- low to a special commissioner, who re- ported in favur of the allowance of all the claims, with inconsiderable exceptions. De- crees were entered confirming the reports, and declaring liens against the steamer ior the several amounts reported duc to the libellants. It was from these decrees, three in rumber, that the appeais were taken hy the owners and claimants of the vessel. Of the appeals from thirte2n decrees, the Court of Appeals affirmed eleven. By its reversals it held that a draft for supplies by the treasurer of the.Chesapeake and Po- tomac Company could not be allo’ ona lien, and that recovery could rot be had en an assignment of a dealer, when that deal- er had been on the bond of tue cee of the boat. —_>——_ THE VESUVIUS SAILS. One of Her Propeller Shafts to Be Fixed at Norfolk. The dynamite cruiser Vesuvius left the Washington navy yard yestérday afternoon for Norfolk. She has been here two weeks having her pneumatic tubes put into condi- tion for service. The discovery was made that one of her propeller shafts had sett'e3 slightly, and that defect will be remedied at Norfolk, where there are better fact‘l- ties for such work than at this yard. From Norfolk she will go to Newport to take on dynamite and ammunition, and then resume her place on the Key West station. —————_+- 2+ ____-__ TO SUSPEND TAX COLLECTIONS.
