TRANSPORT SERVICE
The Arrangement* That Ar# Being
Made.
Woahlngtoti. Dec. The War De
partment ba* In contemplation two
big tranaporta now being fitted out at
Cramp'* for the conveyance of troop*
on the Pacific coast. It ia poasibit*
that when they served the purpose of
ronveying the permanent garrison* to
Cuba they will be despatched to Man
ila by way of the Sue* canal. ,
in aiirb case they will take several
thousand regulars to replace the vol
urttvrs there. After that the Missis
sippi, and a slater ship, will ply be
tween Manila and Ban Francisco, sup
plementing this rervice transport ser
vice nr w operated by Ihe government.
They r-n easily be spared from the
Atlantic coast after the Cuban garri
sons S'c once established In view of
the small demands for transportation
in that quarters as compared with the
prospective demands In th* Philip
pines.
Perhaps the Public May Peep.
Of all the city houses In this country
perhaps the four Vanderbilt mansions
in Fifth avenue are the most familiar
In appearance to the general public,
says a New York paper. The brown
stone twins across the corner from St.
Patrick's cathedral are thought by
many good judges to be the most per
fect type of a great city house that can
he found In New York. One of these
hout'« belong to Mr. George Vander
bilt and the other belongs to Mrs.
Sloane, formerly Miss Vanderbilt.
For months the Slnane bouse has been
hooded In canvas, and the passersby
have been wondering what Is going
on. The casual observer will really
never know what has been done be
hind those canvas screens. A few
taken out of the wall and filled
• iPtth great stained giees windows and
ihr rechiseling of the great, carved
stone work will be about all that he
will see; and yet a million dodars
w II not pay for all the-work that ia
being done, and whtn finished Mrs.
Sloane’s house will be a palace worthy
to rank with the great house of Cor
nelius Vanderbilt a little farther u»

■-== :
French design* of the last century ar*
to continue to rule. The great ball
room Is to be In the style of the Ixftil*
Qulnte period; the library of the
Ixtuis Quatorze; the salon of the Louis
Seise; while at least one of the bed
rooms will be In the style of the em
pire. New York as well as the other
American cities now has many hous
es which, both for the magnificence
of their interior* and for the tiea*-
urea of art they contain, are quite as
well worth seeing as some of the for
eign palaces. Therefore It la a very
welcome whisper that la being circula
ted to the effect that some of these
houses will be opened occas'onally and
that visitors properly accredited will
be admitted on the payment of a small
fee. The fee would be turned over to
some charitable purpose Lucky In
deed would be the object selected to
! benefit by this new departuie! Curi
osity was not forgotten in the makeup
of the average American.

The House Refuses to increase the
Appropriation.
Ulanta. Ga- Dec. 9.—The chief In- j
cldent of the fight over the appropria
tions was the defeat of the state ml-
I lltia fund increase. The House refused
lo increase the $2,500 appropriation
and thus the state militia has but this
ridiculously small sum t
There is one hope left, however, and
this is that iae Senate may come to
their relief and the volunteers he ree
cgnized. Senator Grovcnstein will
