Washington, D. C, Nov. 29. )'
"Many men of many minds," just
about fits the condition of the Represen
tatives and Senators now pouring into
Washington by every train. Upon wheth
er these many minds can be got together
or at least a majority of them, will de
pend whether this session of Congress
will be productive of important legisla
tion, aside from the regular appropri
ation bills, which, important as they are
disposing of somewhere in the neighbor
hood of a billion dollars, arc always
regarded as matter of course legislation.
A few Senators and Representatives are
expressing flat-footed opinions as to what
will or will not be done, but the most of
them, knowing how largely the matter
will be determined by circumstances, are
keeping quiet and trying to find out whai
their colleagues think. PresidentJ Mc
Kinley is paying especial atteutiou ,to
Republican Senators, as he. has an idea
that if he can get them to act as a unit,
enough other votes can be secured in
pass several measures lie wants. The
House will, of course, do whatever he
wishes.
While it may be true that the admin'u-
tration desires peace and expects peace
with Spain and.all the rest of the world,
it has been doing a number of things of
late which indicate both the desire und
the intention to be prepared for war in
case it should come. One of these things
was the placing of a contract for war
material, in the shape of the latest im
proved armor-piercing ammunition, and
light calibre guns, such as can be used
with advantage upon auxili iry cruisers.
This contract, which is the largest planed
by the Government since the close of the
civil war, was marked "urgent," and the
delivery of the material will be rushed
When this contract, and others which
preceded it. have all been tilled, every
gun in the I". S. Navy will have about
live hundred rouuds of ammunition of
the very highest grade, which naval olli-
c?rs say is more thuu any Navy in Eu
rope has, and will be prepared for any
emergency,
Secretary Long's annual report is an
unusually peaceable sort of a document
to emanate from the head of the Navy
Department, and indicates no expecta
tion on his part of war. He recommends
tbat Congress restrict the additions to
the Navy to be provided tor at this ses
sion, to one battleship for the Pacific
coast and a few torpedo boats and tor
pedo boat destroyers, and says that the
policy of his department will be to grad
ually take war ships out of commission
and put them into reserve, in order to
reduce running expenses.
