• Three V» Valuable at Sea. Marine underwriters have been hit hard by recent disasters, and they propose to urge upon the masters of ahipa the necessity of saying daily on shipboard what is known as the three “L’s” in the “aailor’H maxim,” which reads in part: ‘‘I believe in the lead, as it warns me against dangers which the eye caunot sco.

DOCUMENT CONTAINS NO (lennrul Recite* Movement of Troops Dur ing Cuban Campaign Makes Koine Important Recommendations* A Washington special , says: , The r , re port of Major General Miles, com mending the United States army, was made public Thursday by direction of ,, Secretary . Alger. ,, The keynote >» found on the opening sentences, where it is said: ‘‘The military operations during tho war hsvo been extraordi nary, unusual and extensive,” a state merit ........ wh.ch fully . borne out . . by the is long recital of important events which General Miles shows have made the military history of the year 1898 the most remarkable since the end of the civil war. In point of interest, tho document divides naturally into four chapters, for while brief allusion is made to such matters os the military expedi tions to Alaska, interest naturally cen ters in tho portion which treats of tho war with Spain. Under this general head the report deals with tho plans of campaign; with tho war preparations; with the San tiago campaign; with General Miles’s operations in Porto Rico, and lastly with the important changes in exist ing organizations which arc, in Gen eral Milos’s opinion, necessary to make the army an effective weapon for tlie defense of tho country. There is nn entire absence of any evidence of direct criticism, though certain sen tences in the report are italicized in apparent desire to justify previously expressed plans of details of tho cam paign, and whore it deals with events, the document is largely made up of a quotation of official dispatches. Treating of tho war General Miles begins with n statement of the unpre paroduess of tho country, sliowitig how tho vast equipment ieft by th6 soldiers of the civil war had been dis sipated or had become obsolete, until the tentage or camp equipment was insufficient for any military operation. IFo recounts tho legislation of con gress just prior to tho war, looking to the increase of the army, and cites his own recommendation, on April 9th, that -10,090 men bo provided for coast defense and reserve; that, tho reserve army bo increased and 15,000 immuncs recruited, making a force of 102,697 men, which, with 50,000 native auxil iaries, he considered sufficient. Such a force properly equipped he believed to ho better than a largo force partly equipped. In the letter containing this recommendation, he said: ‘‘I also recommend that nt lonst twenty regiments of infantry, five regi ments of cavalry and the light artil lery be mobilized and placed in ono large camp where they can he carefully and thoroughly inspected, fully equip ped, drilled, disciplined and instruct ed in brigades and divisions and pre pared for war service. ” He further asked “for 50,000 volun teers to make up an army of 150,000 soldiers for offensive operations in •d/lp,”, - - with - ■ w.eral Miles closes his report some earnest recommendations for tho improvement of the military service. Ho trusts tho experience of the past few months will bo valuable to tho people and the government, The valuo of tho const defenses, ho says, has been proven, and the system should lio completed without delay. 11a favors tho adoption of a standard of strength for tho army to meet tho country's growth, and says that it should have ono soldier for 1,000 pop ulation, yielding a force of 92,655. While thia force is already provided for, unfortunately tho authorizing reduced not requires the army to be to its former inadequate basis on the termi nation of the war. General Miles, in conclusion, re commends tho authorization of a force of native troops in Cuba, I’orto Rico and the Philippines to be officered by United States army officers, ned not exceeding two soldiers for 1,000 popu lation of tbe islands, and all of tlieso increases he urges should he made at once, ns they are of vital importance. SALISBURY SPEAKS. Delivers Address at Lord Mayor’s Banquet In London. The annual banquet of the lord mayor of Loudon took place nt the Guild hall Wednesday evening. There was general anxiety to hear the mar quis of Salisbury, who, on rising to respond to the toast of “Her majesty’s ministers,” was greeted with ponder ous cheers. ’The premier began by saying that a succession of events abroad had occa sioned grave anxiety to the ministry for a year past. Turning to the crisis with France, the premier recounted the various phases of that important question. “CllOKEll DIO IT.” Tammany Ross Is Blamed For Defeat of Van Wyck In Ills Race For Governor.

Brown has wired for a muster officer, and as soon as ho arrives the men will ” m b “ L “"" * For awhile it was thought the; the regiment would remain in the service, but recently it has been known that there would not he a sufficient number who desired to remain to make a full regiment. Saturday the time limit for securing volunteer8 for re . enHst ment expired. jt W as then ascertained that in tho companies stationed at Camp Atkinson there were only ninety-five men and eighteen « officers who desired Ao re m iu itfc the „ ervice . News was re ce j V ed from the First battalion, sta tinned at Savannah, that twenty-six men and six officers of that command re-enlist and it was lerned that thirteen men of companies C and E> sttttioned at Augusta, had signed he re-enlistment call. As soon as these facts were ascer tained, Colonel Oscar Brown, the com mander of the regiment, telegraphed to the mustering officers that it would he impossible tojiecure the number of re-inlistments required. Col. Brown asked that the mustering officer pro ceed to give the men their discharges as soon ns possible. The following order was issued from tlie department of the gulf nt Atlanta relative to tho mustering out of the Second Georgia: “Colonel Oscar J. Brown, Second Georgia volunteer infantry, will pro ceed to Savannah, Augusta and Ga., on official business pertaining to the muster out of companies of his regiment stationed at those points,and will return to his station in this city from each place upon completion of tho duty thereat. The travel enjoined is necessary for the public service.” Administration officials have no sympathy with the Carolina rioters aud regard their acts w ith abhorrence, hut u]) to this time, it, is said, there is no evidence that would warrant any in terference by the government. Postmaster General Emory Smith had a call during the day from the dele gation of South Carol na repiibltcans, who were in tho city to lay before the department of justice the facts in tho election rioting at Fhoenix. R. R. Tol bert, whose brother ni«l father were both wounded, was with them. One feature of the riot was the driving away of tho deputy postmaster at McCormick, which lent an addi tional feature of interest to tho recital of the story of the delegation to the postal officials. TERESA A MILE OFF SHORE. Com inn ii tier Craven Ordered to Take Cos session of Stranded Vessel. A special dispatch from Nassau,New Providence, says: “The tug Potomac, from Santiago, which has been visit ing the stranded cruiser Infanta Maria Teresa, oft'Cat island, has arrived here in order to obtain a permit to work on the ship. She will return to Cat island. “The eruisei is lying one mile off shore, and is in two fathoms of water. The natives have destroyed the tem porary decks and havo carried away everything movable.” The official report, to the Navy de partment of the finding of the Maria Teresa was contained in the following cablegram received Saturday from Commander Craven, of the wrecking tug Potomac, which had been orderod to Cat, island from Santiago: “Nassau, November 12.— Secretary of Navy, Washington: Potomac.arrived. Maria Teresa near Bird point, Cat is land, one mile off shore, in two fath oms of water. Tide rising and falling inside. Temporary deck broken up, movable nrticles removed by natives. Vulcan not seeu. Natives nt work since Saturday.” Tho Potomac was ordered nt once back to Cat. island, with instructions to Commander Craven to take possession of the Teresa and drive off the wreck ers who are looting the ship. He re plied by cable that he would iiiime dintely. Tho fact that (ho Teresa, a vessel drawing in trim twenty-three feet of water and water-logged as she was wlion abandoned, probably drawing nearly thirty feet, should have been driven in twelve-foot water, is regard ed by naval officers as evidence of tho strength of the storm which caused hev crow to leave her.

NEGROES AND WHITES IN BUTTLE. Eight Death* the Result—N#gro News paper Office Destroyed By a Com mittee of White Men. Following up their success at the polls, the white citizens of Wilming t° n > North Carolina, hold a mass meeting last Wednesday and appointed a committee of twenty-five of leading business men to wait upon Aleak Manly, editor of The Record, the colored newspaper which pub lished editorials derogatory to white women, and ordered him to leave the town within twenty-four hours and take his newspaper outfit with him. The time limit expired Thursday morning without an answer from Man iy, whereupon the committee of white men repaired to tho office of the Rec ord, broke down the door and com pletely demolished everything in the office. While tbo destruction of the outfit was going on some one set fire to the building and it was destroyed, although it was not the intention to use the torch. The publishing house was destroyed but the neighboring property saved. The colored editor, Manly, his broth er and their associates fled and could hot be fmiTi-i ’ v the citizens. After destroy ig the printing house tho marchers returned to the armory, where they had left a rapid-fire machine gun,mounted in a wagon,ready to be dispatched to the scene if a bat tlo should occur. lliot in Another Section. At 10:30 o’clock the scene shifted to another section of the city. Scarcely had the marchers disbanded nt the armory before word was passed along that 300 or 400 negro laborers of the great cotton compress had knocked off work and were assembling, The armed men hurried to the river front, and took pesitions at the head of the streets leading to tho docks. The negroes gathered in groups of 15 or 20, huddled together aud apparently very much excited. They were soon in a state of panic. Their wives had hurried to them with reports that the whites were burning the negro quar ters and were shooting the people,and begged their husbands to come home. So the whole force quit work. The white leaders endeavored to calm the excited men, told them no harm was intended and advised that they return to work. There was no violent talk nor threats by the negroes. Ill all the disturbances the local au thorities made no show of asserting themselves aud not a policeman ap peared, Tho preservation of order was practically vested in the commit tee of 25. The rapid fire machine gun on a wagon, manned by a crew armed w-ith Winchesters, was brought down in front of the postoffice, but on the advice of the leaders, was halted there. At 11:30 a. m. serious trouble oc curred in the Fiist ward. Two white men and three negroes w r ere killed. Lirgc companies of armed citizens rushed to the scene. Near by cities were telegraphed to for help. About 1:30 o’clock two white men passing a house were fired on. A de tachment immediately surrounned the house and took away five negroes. It was at first proposed to kill them on the spot, but it was finally decided to put them in jail. Another negro in the house broke and ran. After pro ceeding half a square he was shot dead. City Under Now Government. A later special received from Raleigh states that Thursday night the city of Wilmington was in the hands of a new municipal government, and law and order is being established. Thursday afternoon tho board of aldermen re signed one by one. As each alderman vacated, tlie remainder elected a sne cessor named by tho citizens’ commit tee, until the entire board was changed legally. They resigned in response to public sentiment. Tho new board is composod of conservative democratic citizens. Tho mayor and chief of po lice then resigned, and the new board elected their successors, according to law. Ex-Representative Waddell was elected mayor and E. G. Parmlee chief of police. The first act of the new government was to swear in 250 special policemen, chosen from the most reputable white citizens. They are vested with all the authority, and will take possession of the city. The white citizens will remain on guard, however, throughout tho town, to pre vent possible attempts at incendiarism. The now government will devote its attention to restraining the feeling among tho whites, as well as to keep ing down lawlessness among tho negroes. Further trouble of a serious nature is not expected. TO CAMP AT SAVANNAH. Troops On Tlieir Way from Porto Itico Receive New Orders.

The Bad Break of a lieutenant, New to Sea tariaj. Cnptaln N. Mayo Dyer, whose name has been advanced seven points on the list of captains, placing him near er promotion over the bends of older officers, on account of his gallant ser vices at Manila, is a native of Massa chusetts. Captain Dyer’s excellent seamanship was proved on a trip of the Marlon from Yokohama to San Francisco. Her coal supply was low, and the voyage was performed by getting up steam for awhile and then running by aid of the sails until compelled to use steam again; yet the vessel arrived on the date set by her orders. It was during this trip, which required so much skill and management, that Dyer, one day, on going below, said to the officer wno took his place on the bridge, “now re port to me everything that occurs.” The young lieutenant was new to seafaring life and not discriminating In his Ideas of the Importance of events. Soon after taking Ills stand on guard a “booby,” which is called by sailors the luzlest bird on the wing because It will alight on the ship at any point, perched upon the fore yard arm. The lieutenaut contemplat'd the booby earnestly, ns If It had been an omen of fate, then called the cap tain’s orderly, and said: “Go t il the captain that there is a booby on the yardarm.” “Tell the captain what?” blurted out the old marine. “Tell Captain Dyer that there is a booby on the fore yard,” reiterated the punctilious officer. Captain Dyer was seated reading when his orderly presented himself at th* cabin door. “Well?” he asked, with a nasal jerk, looking up over his spectcles. “Mr. - reports that there Is a booby on the fore yard.” The captain’s face at this extraor dinary pbee of information was a yfudy, hut as lie never scrupled to be stow what he considered an appro priate epithet upon any person, he ejaculated in a tone a little more nas al than usual, to express his sarcasm, “A booby on the yardarm, is there? Go back and tell Mr. : - that I say flier? Is another one on the bridge.’” The grinning marine retired to de liver this message, with the addition of a few adjectives of his own manu facture.

The IHo of every soldier ts a hard one, and Mr. Softun’s case was no ex ception. “Wo were in Tonnessoe, penned in on all sides.
