The Weather.
The Indications for Georgia to-day
are increasing cloudiness, with rain in
north portion, fresh to brisk to south
east winds; and for Eastern Florida,
partly cloudy weather; showers at
night; fresh to brisk east to southeast
winds.
Pennsylvania gladly hails the coming
of milder weather. During the winter
smallpox has raged. With the coming
of spring the weekly bills of mortality
shovv that the epidemic is gradually
decreasing.
The Navy Department desires anew
home. It is now housed with the State
and War Departments, and the Secre
tary declares that it is uncomfortably
crowded. In 1883 the department had
276 employees. It now has more than
500, all crowded Into the space formerly
occupied by the 276. Congress Is to be
asked to provide anew building, to be
devoted exclusively to the navy.
Another prince of royal blood is com
ing to the United States this year. He
is Prince Victor Emmauel, Count of
Turin, cousin of the King of Italy.
Prince Victor, however, is coming in a
"strictly private” manner. This is
taken in London and Paris to mean
that he will Journey to America for the
purpose of investigating the matrimo
nial market. He will visit Cincinnati,
Chicago and New York, where the best
bargains in that line are apt to be
picked up.
During the calendar year 1901 our
trade with Spain, both imports and ex
ports, increased in considerable degree.
We are not only friends again, but are
trading with each other more than
ever before. During the same calendar
year, while Spain bought much more
from us than prior to the war, Austria-
Hungary, France, Germany, Greece,
Italy, Portugal, Russia, Norway,
Sweden, Switzerland and the United
Kingdom bought less. Our exports to
these countries show _& decline as com
aared w 'lb the calendar year preceding.
RENT BY ONE OF ITS INFANTS.
The Republican party is torn into
factions by an infant industry of the
kind that it has been nursing eve.*
since it came into existence. The beet
sugar industry says in effect that that
party shall nof carry out its policy of
giving aid to the Cuban sugar plant
ers, and it looks very much as if it
would have its w*ay in the matter.
The party organs are trying to force
the infant beet sugar industry out of
the party’s path, but they do not meet
with much success. For. instance, the
Philadelphia Press, edited by Mr.
Smith, recently Postmaster General,
in its Monday’s issue, says, "Now the
first point to be clearly grasped and
fully measured is that the honor of
the nation and the success of the Re
publican party are bound up with a
fair chance for -Cuba. That is a part
of the national policy which the Re-'
publican party has created.”
That is the way that the President
sees it and as those party leaders, wh&
made certain promises to the Cubans
when Cuba agreed to what is known
as the Platt amendment, see It, but
it is not the way the infant beet sugar
Industry sees It. The beet sugar men
say that those who made promises to
Cuba were not authorized to do so,
and that therefore their promises have
no binding force. Besides, they con
tend that the success of the Republi
can party does not depend upon giv
ing aid to Cuba. On the contrary,
from their point of view, the party is
much more likely to be injured than
helped by giving assistance to Cuba,
particularly as the giving of such as
sistance means the injury of an Ameri
can industry.
The quarrel is a very pretty one
and is doing the Republican party no
good. In fact, it Is doing it a great
deal of harm. In the first place if aid
should not be granted there
would, in all probability, be
trouble In Cuba. which would
be charged against the Republi
can party. If help should be granted
to Cuba the weight of all of the sugar
growing interests of this country would
likely be thrown against the Republi
can party. That interest Is very
great, especially in some of the North
western states. As the case stands
therefore the infant beet sugar indus
try is in a fair way of doing the Re
publican party very considerable dam
age—damage which will appear as the
Congressional campaign progresses.
THE NEW SECRETARY OF THE
NAVY.
Beginning with May 1 William Hen
ry Moody oif Massachusetts will be
Secretary of the Navy. The impres
sion thrown out by the Washington
dispatches is that the friends of Mr.
Moody made a hard fight to get the
President to select him In preference
to one of several others who were
prominntly mentioned for the place.
That may be a correct impression, but
it seems to us that the President had
derided to appoint him as soon as he
was certain that it was the purpose
of Secretary Bong to retire.
Mr. Moody is just the sort of a man
that the President likes. In fact, he
is much the same sort of a man as
the President Is. He believes in a
strenuous life. He showed that by his
efforts to get Congress to take a hand
in the settlement <?f the race question
in the South. If he had remained in
Congress he would never have been
satisfied until that question was made
a political Issues. He doesn’t agree
with the majority of his party in the
position it appears to be taking on
that question—that is, to let the South
ern people deal with the question in
the way that seems 'best to them. As
the head of the Navy Department he
will have enough to occupy his mind
without worrying about the disfran
chisement of illiterate negroes.
Mr. Moody is a little past forty-eight
years of age, and Is a lawyer by pro
fession. He was elected to fill a va
cancy In the Fifty-fourth Congress
and has been a member of that body
ever since. He is credited with being
a good business man and an ardent
civil service reformer. One of the
reasons why he is acceptable to the
President is that he is such an ag
gressive advocate of civil service re
form.
It Is probable that he will make a
very good Secretary of the Navy, but
he will not become as popular with
the masses of the people as the pres
ent Secretary of the Navy is. No
doubt Mr. Bong has made some se
rious mistakes, but he is a courteous
and kind hearted gentleman whose re
tirement Is no doubt regretted by
many who are not politically in sym
pathy with him.
Some of the enthusiastic Republicans
at Washington are expressing the
opinion that the Rough Rider has got
the German vote "cinched” for the
next election by his cordial treatment
of Prince Henry. Col. Roosevelt’s en
tertainment of the distinguished visi
tor was not in his personal capacity,
but as the President of the United
States. The German-born citizens of
this country are very well aware of
that fact, and of the further fact that
had another man been In the White
House the reception of the Prince
would have been just as cordial. Your
German, furthermore, is a thinker. He
is not swept off his feet by a wave of
enthusiasm, even though the cause of
that wave be the visit of a prince of
German blood. By the time the elec
tion rolls around —and it is a long way
off yet—the visit of Prince Henry will
be something like ancient history, and
the German voter will deposit his bal
lot in accordance with his convictions
respecting American affairs, not with
a view to rewarding anybody for
courtesies to the Prince.
In a Philadelphia hospital a patient
has been supplied with a new 7 set of
eyelids. It Is said to be the first time
in the history of surgery that this op
eration has been successfully per
formed. The patient had lost both up
per and lower eyelids from a burst of
flame. The eyeballs were left entirely
unprotected. There was grave danger
that total blindness would follow. Skin
grafting was resorted to. and proceed
ed slowly. The patient has now been
•discharged with his eye coverings per
torming their functions naturally.
SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY. MARCH 12. 1002.
GREENE-GAY'NOR STORIES.
The failure of Capt. Greene and
Col. Gaynor to appear in court and
answer the new indictment against
them has given the New York news
papers an opportunity to indulge in
wild speculations, and to tell some
stories that apparently have no
foundation.
One of the stories is that the reason
Capt. Greene and Col. Gaynor de
cided not to stand a trial was that they
had learned that former Capt. Carter,
now confined in the Leavenworth pris
on, had agreed to become a witness
for the government, and tell all he
knew about the famous conspiracy. In
this connection it was said that during
Mr. Carter's trial by court-martial
Capt. Greene and Col. Gaynor held
aloof from him, refusing to give him
either sympathy or pecuniary aid, and
that Mr. Carter, in revenge for their
treatment of him, Is now willing to do
them all the injury he can.
It is a safe assertion that there is no
foundation for stories of this sort. The
public knows nothing to justify the
statement that Mr. Carter has express
ed a willingness to assist the govern
ment in prosecuting Capt. Greene and
Col. Gaynor. Indeed there has been
no time when he has not asserted his
innocence.
Besides, the statement that Capt.
Greene and Col. Gaynor gave Mr. Car
ter no assistance during the latter’s
trial is made without any knowledge
of the facts. It may be true that they
were not ostentatious in helping Mr.
Carter, but it is the opinion of those
who were in a position to know that
they did assist him to the utmost ex
tent of their ability, and that they were
In close touch with him throughout his
trial. There was every reason why
they should have stood by him, wheth
er they were guilty or innocent, be
cause his conviction meant that they
would be indicted and prosecuted.
There has been a vast amount of sen
sational stuff written about this fam
ous case much of which has been pret
ty nearly pure fiction. About all the
real history of the case will be given
to the public when the case is tried.
A GOOD WORD FOK SENATOR CLAY.
The New York Times pays Senator
Clay a deserved compliment in its re
view of his speech on the ship-subsidy
bill. It says, “We congratulate Sen
ator Clay of Georgia on having taken
the post and done the work of leader
of the Democratic party in the Sen
ate with energy and distinguished abil
ity and in a courageous fashion to
which the party has too long been un
used.” Further along in its article it
speaks of Mr. Clay’s speech against
the bill as unanswerable.”
There is no doubt that the speech was
a very fine one, and it has greatly in
creased Mr. Clay’s reputation as a
thinker and careful student of ques
tions with which Congress has to deal.
Mr. Clay has given a great deal of
time to the study of the ship-subsidy
bill'. There is no phase of the subject
with which it deals that he has not
made himself familiar with. Had he
not been master of the subject he could
not have made so effective an answer
to the speech of Senator Frye who, as
chairman of the Committee on Com
merce, opened the debate.
Mr. Clay felt when he was selected
to make the argument for the opposi
tion to the bill that a very heavy task
had been imposed upon him. That
was in the last Congress, but he un
dertook it with the determination that
the country should know what the bill
meant and what its purposes were. It
is certain that no other Senator could
have done the work better. Senator
Vest made a brilliant speech in oppo
sition to the bill on Monday, but it did
not show the study that Mr. Clay’s
did. The latter made a thorough
analysis of the measure and those who
read his speech cannot fail to see that
the bill is not in the interest of the
producers of the country, but of the
ship owners. Besides, it is made clear
that it ’is wrong in principle to sub
sidize one interest at the expense of
the others. Mr. Clay is entitled to
the credit he is getting. If the bill
is defeated will be due largely to his
efforts.
Who prevented Alice Roosevelt’s trip
to the coronation? The question may
grow to be as important and as puz
zling as the one, Who was Uncle Sam’s
friend in 1898? Two or three days ago
it was stated that Senator Hanna had
convinced the President that it would
be poor politics to permit his daughter
to go to the coronation. Now Con
gressman Fitzgerald of Boston says It
w 7 as. the Irish that influenced him.
There is a large Irish vote in the
United States, and Mr. Fitzgerald de
clares that had the young woman gone
to London and hob-nobbed with British
royalty, no good Irishman would have
voted for the President at the next
election. A Chicago paper says it was
the Democrats that kept Miss Alice out
of her visit, since the Democratic pa
pers would have watched the trip
closely for the purpose of taking ad
vantage of any political capital that
might be made out of it. These are
some of the alleged influences brought
to bear on the President. Others may
come to light from time to time.
Charles T. Yerkes, the Chicago street
railway magnate, was so much pleased
with a portrait of himself painted by
Benjamin Constant that he added a
gratuity of SIO,OOO to the check for $20,-
000, the artist’s price for the picture.
Mr. Yerkes said that the extra SIO,OOO
was a token of admiration for the art
ist's genius, and gratitude "for your
having consented to bother with such
an uninspiring model.” As if a model
able to pay $20,000 for a picture could
be ‘’uninspiring!” Constant, however,
would not accept the SIO,OOO. He had
his price for portraits, he said; "no
more and no less.” He proposed, there
fore. that the surplus be given to
charity.
An illustration of the fact that time
brings about strange changes was seen
at the German banquet to Prince Henry
in New York the other night, when the
leading and most brilliant speaker was
Carl Schurz. Fifty years or so ago
Carl Schurz was u revolutionist in Ger
many, and had to flee the country.
According to a Washington dispatch
in the Philadelphia Record, there is
more behind the case of Maj. Waller,
of the Marines, who is to be tried by
court martial in the Philippines, than
appears in the charges. According to
this dispatch, Maj. Waller is in the
way of the bureaucrats in Washing
ton and they wish to get rid of him.
Maj. Waller, who is of the line, is a
candidate for the brigadier general
ship to succeed Gen. Heywood. There
is a contest between the line and the
staff for the place. The staff candi
dates are Col. G. C. Reed and Col.
Denny, and the line candidates are
Maj. Waller and Col. Meade. It will
be recalled that Col. Meade was re
cently courtmartialed, and acquitted,
on complaint of Col. Denny. The alle
gation Is that the Washington wire
pullers wish to get the line officers out
of the way so that the generalship may
go to the staff. Maj. Waller has a
brilliant record.
The demand in modern railroad
building is for straight lines and level
roadbeds. Curves and grades are to
be eliminated, as far as money and
brains can eliminate them. In follow
ing out this policy 6f going in a straight
line and on the the Pennsylvania
Railroad will this r ‘ year, it is stated,
spend $11,000,000 in the digging of tun
nels. Along the Pennsylvania’s lines
in the Alleghenies there is much beau
tiful mountain scenery, and one
“horseshoe bend’* "at _ least that is
famous for the view from the car win
dow. -But much of the scenery, and
this "horseshoe bend” in particular, is
to be blotted from the traveler's vision
by sending him roaring through a tun
nel. It seems a pity that commerce
hasn’t the time to contemplate the
beauties of nature.
Washington is said to be suffering
from a severe Prince Henry Jag. Every
thing that can possibly be converted
into a souvenir of the Prince’s visit
is being eagerly seized upon, and prices
of souvenirs have gone' soaring. Five
hundred dollars has been refused for
one of the menu cards of the Prince’s
dinner at the White House. The tow
els that he wiped his hands on are
eagerly sought by those who have the
craze. A chair In which the Prince
sat was sold for about fifty times its
value. The men are cultivating the
Prince Henry beard, and the women
are cultivating the men wearing the
beard.
Lord Kitchener sent some dispatches
home last week that tended to create
the impression that he had discovered
and captured the main BoeT magazine,
and that the Dutchmen would soon
have nothing to fight with. But Mon
day’s dispatches from the front show
that Gen. Delarey is still pretty well
provided with munitions and supplies,
especially khaki uniforms—the uni
forms of the Britishers themselves.
Where did he get these khaki uniforms,
capture them? Some of the Boer
spokesmen have declared that their
compatriots In the field are able to
capture all the war Supplies they need.
Is Booth Tarkington content with the
laurels that he has already accumu
lated as an author? The announcement
comes from Indianapolis that he is soon
to be married, and that the Republi
cans are going to elect him to Con
gress. A dispatch says: “He has no
serious opposition, as the Republicans
have an honest majority of about 1,500
and his election is practically assured.”
If Congress and matrimony do not take
the romance out of the young fellow,
"The Gentleman from Indiana” will
prove himself made of exceptional
stuff.
PERSONAL.
—B. Perez Galdoz, the great figure
in modern Spanish literature, is the
author of sixty novels and plays.
—Rear Admiral Oscar W. Farenholt,
U. S. N., who was inspection officer at
Charleston navy yard up to about a
year ago and who is now on the re
tired list, is the only officer in the
service who reached the grade of rear
admiral from the position of enlisted
man.
—J. H. Tappan of San Antonio, Tex.,
breeder of polo ponies, has shipped
George Gould eleven of the best ponies
on his ranch near there. It is sup
posed these will go to participate in
the international polo tournament to
be held at Hurlinghame during the
coronation ceremonies of King Edward.
CURRENT COMMENT.
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican
(Ind.) says: ‘Rebellion is said to be
brewing among the Republicans on the
floor of the House against the tyranny
of the speakership clique. This ought
to be true, and enough so to become
effective, and it probably is, for the
average representative cannot well be
satisfied with seeing the House snuffed
out as a power in national legislation.
Ordinary individual ambition to be
somebody must work to such a result
finally.”
Discussing the canal question, the
Washington Post (Ind.) says: “It is
said that Congress has not time to de
cide this question. Why not? The
Fifty-seventh Congress is not compelled
to adjourn until its life expires—at 12
o’clock m. March 4, 1903. If by that
time this matter could not be disposed
of, the Fifty-eighth Congress could be
convened to meet on that day. Con
gress has every day in the year, the
same as the President.”
The Pittsburg Dispatch (Rep.) says:
''The British government hopes to
avoid conscription by paying its sol
diers American wages and treating
them as American regulars. The fact,
pointed out by Colonel Bee, that the
new pay will exceed that of the Brit
ish hired hands on the farms, may de
nude the farms, but If the Boers are
to be conquered England may yet have
to beat her plowshares into swords, so
what is the difference?”
The Philadelphia Record (Dem.)
says: "The Democrats of the Senate
appear to be too willing by half to send
the Ship Subsidy bill over to the House
in the expectation that its passage
would furnish abundant capital against
the Republicans in the next election for
Congress. But what if the Republicans
of the House refuse to pass the subsidy
bill? How much party capital will be
in it then? The course of the Demo
crats of the Senate on this bill may be
good tactics for a party drill sergeant,
but it is not the strategy that wins po
litical victories or averts defeat. It
was not in this way that the Democrats
defeated ship subsidy and earned the
plaudits of the country in the last
Congress.”
ITEMS OF INTEREST.
—Accumulating snow upon the top of
a balloon in England forced the aero
nauts to throw out ballast.
—But little notice was taken In Hol
land of the anniversary of Queen
Wilhelmina’s wedding, and no refer

leading Dutch papers.
—The new bell which has just been
hoisted in the south tower of Beverly
Minster is the third largest in Great
Britain. It has a diameter of 7 feet
2 inches, and weighs over seven tons.
—At a recent meeting of the Anthro
pological Society, of Washington, evi
dence was adduced that the tattoo
marks on Eskimo women were made
for the purpose of Indicating relation

His wife is dead.”
—Lord Salisbury, says the St. James’
Gazette, will retire from the public
service at the end of the war, and that
should this come about before June he
will not wait for the coronation be
fore resigning office.
—The drapery on President McKin
ley's pew in the First Methodist Epis
copal Church of Canton, 0., was re
moved the other day. Although all
pews In the church are free, the Mc-
Kinley pew has not been occupied by
any one since the funeral. It is to be
permanently marked by a plate.
—Camping in the Rocky Mountains is
to be one of the inducements offered
Colorado and Utah tourists this year.
The idea was suggested by the inabil
ity of the Colorado resort hotels to care
for the business, and the popularity of
some experiments made in that direc
tion by tourists last year.
—A young woman of Magyar-Czern
ya, in Hungary, was called upon the
long distance telephone by her sweet
heart in the town of Taba. He said:
"Would you like to hear how I shoot
myself?” Then she heard the sound of
a shot. It was found afterward that
the man bad really killed himself.
—There is cruelty In the keeping of
goldfish. Half of such captives die from
sheer want of rest. As fish have eyes
so formed that they cannot endure the
light, in a glass vessel they are in an
entirely wrong place, as is evident from
the way in which they’dash about and
go round and round until fairly worn
out.
—Tokio has been destroying rats
wholesale as a preventive measure
against the plague. This disturbed the
religious scruples of Umataro Nagal of
Akasakaken and he began to see rats
at night. To get rid of the dreams he
has spent SI,OOO in building a stone pil
lar 12 feet high and 6 feet thick, in
honor of the spirits of the killed rats.
—The Petit Parisian gives an ac
count of a remarkable operation per
formed on an Arab. The unfortunate
son of the desert, frightened at the ap
proach of evil-eyed strangers, swal
lowed his fortune of 107 francs, consist
ing of 5-franc and 2-franc pieces. As it
would have endangered his life to leave
this mpney in its novel security vault,
he was operated upon, and after much
search 105 francs 50 centimes was re
covered. The patient was 63 years of
age.
—An interesting experiment In clean
ing skeletons adopted at the Wistar
Institute of Anatomy of the University
of Pennsylvania has proved Itself most
successful and satisfactory, Insects do
ing the work in a more satisfactory
and less expensive manner than was
accomplished by any of the former
methods employed. Some time ago
more than 500 roughly cleaned and
dried carcasses of animals of every de
scription, varying in size from a bear
to a mouse, were spread out on long
tables in the basement rooms of the
building used by the institute. In a
few months almost the entire collec
tion had been thoroughly cleaned by
the larvae of several species of beetles.
—Apropos of the great chess tourna
ment which Is now being held at Monte
Carlo, there is no game in the world
at w’hich it is so difficult to make
money as chess, says the Tatler. Chess
Is unquestionably the most scientific
pastime in existence and requires a
very high degree of intelligence to ex
cel at it, but professional chess-play
ers are a sigularly ill paid body of
men. Putting aside jockeys—who are
more or less millionaires—fourth-rate
players of many games earn far more
than the most distinguished chess
players. Lasker has lately been ap
pointed to a professorship of mathe
matics at Owens College, Manchester,
and Dr. Tarrasch makes a comfortable
income as a medical man in Germany,
but their income has nothing to do
with their chess. Many of the com
petitors In the Monte Carlo tourna
ment are men of world-wide fame, but
most of them are glad to compete for
prizes of which the highest is only
worth a few hundred pounds, and such
tournaments only occur in two or
three years. A professional chess
player’s earnings for the most part
consist of such fees as he receives for
teaching chess or from playing exhibi
tion games at a local club and any
prize he may win at a chess tourna
ment, and in the former of these fees
often amount to less In a year than
a descent billiard-player would receive
in a month.
—ln a recently published hook on
culinary art Dr. Lemaunier, a physi
cian of Paris, gives several Interesting
items regarding well-known chefs. He
mentions the melancholy death of
Trompette, the celebrated cook to the
Duke of Noailles. who, in a fit of am
bition, deserted his aristocratic master
for the luxurious but plebeian kitchen
of Gambetta. He never forgave him
self this base and sordid action, and
died in a state of melancholy. After
Trompette comes a long list of illus
trious men who have raised French
cookery to its well-deserved reputation.
The Maison Doree gives $15,000 a year
to Casimir Moisson; the Baron de
Mohrenheim had in his kitchen two
brothers, the Fauvets, who never sep
arate: the Duchess of Alba, cousin of
Empress Eugenie, has for her chef
Georges Bouzon, who was a great fav
orite of Napoleon 111. The cook of
Nicolas II gets $45,000 a year; he is an
Alsatian of the name of Krantz, and
enjoyed such privileges under Alexan
der II that he was allowed to carry a
sword and, what is more, to retain his
French nationality. The cook of the
King of the Hellenes took all his de
grees in the university, but in 1858, car
