II ilk From tho first tho engineers gave notice that
Km all they wantod was the right to bear titles.
Ilm Till board talked over this from beginning to
IKCyal end. Under tho schema a it passed thb board
llr.lfl,, the Engineer Corps is to bo abolished in namo
llrH "nd tno officers of tho corps transferred to tho
;IH line, with actual rank. All officers formerly
Wjpi of tho Engineer Corps abovo a certain erndo
fPH not yet dotoxmlned are to perform the duties
pBIH of engineers until retirement. They will not he
pnjiB required to perform sorrlco on board ship out-
pKJM sluo of that at present performed by the tn?l-
RNH Beers. All former engineers below tho grade
"rvS b0 determined will have tho opportunity of
I , '" studying tho duties now performed exclusively
a . ' by lino otllcers, so that they may bo f.tted to
j command a shio and tho like. They will also
j ; do engineering work.
i At the end of ten years It Is expected that
.' cneineor ofUccra taking tho line course will be
I fully equipped for the duties of the prado they
will havo attained by that time. Lino otllcers
5 . above tho grado to bo determined on will not bo
P '- roqulred to perform any engineering duty, but
f ; lino officers below that grade must study cflpi-
j , peering bo as to fit them for performing the ser-
f t, vice now excluslvsly rendered by oOIeers of the
.-. r, corps of engineers. This means that every
', '.; oftlcer on shipboard should be ablo to take his
t i' place on the bridge or In the engine room with
j .. equal safety to the vessel. Alcanwhilo It is
j proposed that the machinists of the navy, who
' nro enlisted men, shall havo moro to do with
running the engines. This will lighten the
' duties of tho otllcers who may be serving abovo
itn(f3 decks one dar and below them another.

In 1807, a accrenso of B80. Thcro were 288 In

lncreaso ot eleven schooU over the numbur In
operation last year. In tho schools on Govern
ment reservations 8,112 children wero taught
during tho year. Tho cfllclcncy of these
schools has beon largely Increased, and the
pcrsonnol of their omployocs Improved. !Tho
curriculum is the outgrowth of j ears of careful
study of their requlicmcuts. Tho majority

WAaniNOTON, Nov. 8. A conferenco between

a view todolslng means of sending assistants
lo the 300 whalers who have been caught with

and members of the Cabinet this momlngasklng
Federal aid in succoring tho unfortunate men.
Thorevenuo cutter scrtlco under the Treas

Capt. Shoemaker, tho chief, spent some time at
the Whlto IIoubo In companr with Secretary
(Inge discussing plans for tho proposed relief.
Later in the day It was docldcd to send the cut
ter Hear up to Point Harrow to cruise in aoarch
of tho castaways. Thpvessol, under command
of Cunt. Tuttle, returned to San Francisco on
bnturday after a year's cruioe in tho North
Pncltlc.
"it will tale about twenty days," said Capt.
Shoemaker, "to put the vessel in comnilsvnn
again and In shape for another voyage. She
carries a crow of forty-six men ordinarily, hut
this number will probably be Increased for this
trip. I liuvo no hope or expectation that she
will bo ablo to reach any of tho imprisoned ships
before noxt spring, but whatever is nosslblo
will be dono by tho o Ulcers and crow, Tho cut

of the lll-fntod shins, 200 In number, but. of
course the accommodations will be crowded."
The Hear has a record as a relief ship. It w is
In this vessel that Lieut. Kmory searched for
and found the survivors of the Greely expe

Navy Department to tho Trcrsury for dut In

In the contest over tho ostato ot tho Into
Joseph Richardson before Surrogate Fitz
gerald on effort wus made yostorday to force
tho Central Pork Baptist Church, n beneficiary
for $17,000 under tho will ot latest date, to
take a position for or against this will. The
last will was made on April 31, 1807. It
divided most of tho ostato among two children
by a former marriage, Oeorga and Delia Rich
ardson, and tho widow, Emma J. Richardson,
but made a bonucst ot $50,000 to tho Rav.
Henry M. Warren of tho Central Park Baptist
Church and 817,500 to the church. Tho will
was drafted by Mrs. Louise II. Leonard,
who, with her husband, Dr. Alfred D. Leonard,
wns a witness to it, and who had beon sent by
tbnltev. Mr. Wnrren to tho "splto house" of
Itlchnrdson to witness tho will. Itlchard
son died In Juno following.
When Mrs. Leonard had been examined by
Do Lnncoy Nlcoll for tho widow and by Wheelor
It. Pockhara for tho contesting children. Lawyer
William 11, Spooncr, who had bocn present up
to that point in an undefined poUtlon, wanted
to c.tnmlno her. Mr, Nlcoll objected, ns Mr.
Spouncr did not appear on one Bldo or the
other. Mr. Nlcoll asked that Mr. 8poonor do
Dno his position, and he said that he repre
sented the trustees of ths Central Park Baptist
Church, and did not appear for Dr. Warren.
Iio added:
"I will say that the church stands In tbls
light: By Mr. nichurdson's will it hrta beon be
queathed a buui of tnonoy, quite considerable,
in fact. After tho death of Uie testator a con
test began, and eorlous charges ot unduo Influ
ence have bocn made. It thoso charges aro
ttuc, then Uio church does not want any part
of tho money. Wo apprehend charges of undue
Influcnco against Dr. Wurren. At the presont
tlmo I prefer to take an impartial stand in ths
matter."
"Why Bbould Mr. Spoonor," Bald Mr. Nlcoll,
"representing ono of tho beneficiaries, en
deavor to break this will simply because there
Is a disagreement between tho pastor ot the
church und tho trustees as to tho reception of
tho bequostst"
Kdwnrd S. Clinch, appearing for Dr. Wnrron,
Bald: "I don't know what stand Mr. Spoonor
and tho trustoos tiro taking, but I appear for
Dr. Warren. Long before thin contest was
begun Dr. Witrien cauio to mo for personal
ndvlcu, and wuen tho content woj begun ho cm
ployed mo to look after his interests. I will
also say I am unnwaro of any controversy be
tween Dr. Warren and tho trustees of tho
church."
".Mr. Siioonor's position," said Mr. Nlcoll,
"Is unprecedented lit conrt praotice. Ho wants
to bo on tho feneo or apparently on our sldo,
whllo In reality he Is trying to break the will In
faor of Mrs. Itlchnrdson und his church. Ills
.lekyll and llydo performance is too much fur
us.
"I am acting under orders from the trustees,
said Mr. Spooncr, "and I proposo to conduct
tho caso as 1 seu flu I reiterate my previous
statement that my clients seek to find out tho
truth ot this matter at'd I am Instructed to get
ut tho moro nilnulo details. I propose to do
BO."
Mr. Spooncr was permitted by the Surrogate
to exumino tho witness.
Burner W. Nichols, cashier of Biasell & Co.,
brokers, with whom Richardson did business,
whs recalled. Ho said that Mr. Hlchardson
bid called at their office on March 30 lat and
went homo ill. The witness called on hlra on
April 2. Hlchardson thcu sntd thnt ho wns
very weak and that In the night ho thought he
was going to die. He went downstairs and
c.tilod for tho police, and a policeman responded
and sent for a doctor."
On Apul 0 tho witness again called on Mr.
ltleharlson und found the son Gcorgo and u
Mr. Ahniruse there.
Q.-Whiit did Mr. nichardson sayl A. Ho
said that Iio ivn In Loudon and thnt ho had
been down to Texas since I last saw him.
A few da s later the witness again railed.
Mr. Hlchardson sold to him: "Nichols, I havo
been in l,oudou lon,r enough. It's time for us
to go back." On April 17 ltlthardsou said to
"Get a carriage and tnko me out of tbl house.
There Is a conspiracy going on here. Take me
to Delia's or somewhere else,"
The witness had an interview with Mrs.
HIchnrdxnn between April 12 and 15, in which
Mr. Itichrrdeon Bald:
"I understand that I am not remembered In
the 1801 will. What shall I do I I haven't re
ceived an-tblng." Tho witnos replied:
"How wotiltl jOU liko ti have fAO.OOO placed
in trust, tho principal on your death to go to tho
childrenl"
Mrs. Hlchardson replied that Bhe wanted tho
principal herself, and the conversation ended.
The witness continued:
"Tne noxt day sbo again asked me what she
should do. I said to her. This man hnsn't
nny money. If you are satisfied with f.'O.ooo
In trust, the principal to revert to tho children,
I think it can be fixed up.' Sho said that she
did not know whether tiio Income of $10,000
was enough." . ,
Mr. Nichols called on Hlchardson tho after
noon of April 21, before tho will was made, and
Hlchardson seemed to be Irrational. He called
the next day, and Hlchardson said to him:
"Nichols, havo you got 912 In vour pocket!
Go and buy tickets to New York. Wo will
miss our train."
O. Did Mrs. HIehnrdson toll you after April
21 that the will bad been executed on that
dayl A. No, sir. I never heard ot It until the
dav of the funeral.
Tho funeral was on Juno 11 last. On cross
examination by Mr. Nlcoll tho witness said
that Hlchardson said to him two days after
the will was made:
"If Chicago Gas goes up two points buy mo
some." ...
On May 20 he had anothor conversation
with Mrs. Richardson, In which he raid to her
"Thero Is a good deal of conspiracy here.
This man U Insolvent. Ho hasn't a penny.
You'd better havo that JfiO,000 fixed up."
Hlchardkon told tho witness in May that ho
wanted nil letters stopped from coming to his
house, nnd that ho Intended to sue bis physi
cian and overy one else for keeping him in the
house. . ,

Thomas I. Watt's Kaw Kteam Yacht.
One of the most symmetrically designed steam
yachts ever built In this country la now being
constructed at Plno's shipyard, foot of Twenty
fifth strcot, South Brooklyn. Sbolstbepropeity
of Thomas L. Watt of tho American Yncbt Club,
nnd when finished wll bo coinmaudod byCapt.
C.Clausen, who for ninny j oars was In charge
of Llo)d Phccntx's noted yacht Intrepid,
The new cmft, which was designed byF. II.
Pine, Is 130 feet overall, 110 feet ou tho water
line, 18 feet beam, 10 feet depth of hold, and Ti
feet draught. Her engines an- nenrly completed
nnd will dovelop a speed of Ht least fouileun
knots per huur. The yacht Ib alrc.tdy in frame,
with deck beams In place, nnd the workof plank
ing will be begun in a few daj s. Her lines are
tinusuully graceful, and denote exceptional
speed, her cntrnii' e at the vater lino being
without n BUggcttton ot u hollow lino and
cntrlod to the midship section In an easy
curvo. nor run uegins um aim wen ior

In hor unfinished condition tho shear JInrs
appear unusually straight as compared to the

bad condition and the races wore far from In

lust. It was a bad day for followers of favorites,
as only two of them got homo In front. The
biggest upset ot tho day camo in thu closing
race, which was thought to bo a certainty for Dr.
Catlott. and ho was backod from 0 to 0 to 7 tolO.
Ho ranfarbolow his form, and was beaten by
Premier and Good TIraos, his only opponents.
Dr. Catlott's showing was so bad that after
the raco the stowards called O'Loary Into the

said that tho colt stopped under n null at

that Itlchard Croker had disposed of his Interest

was not much of a surprise lo thoso ho knew
how much the worst of the bargain the Tnm

When Mr. Croker gave tfSO.OOO to Gen. Jack

n'.so contracted to pay so mucl per bond for the
keep of stallions, brood marcs and yearlings,
and Gen. Jackson was fnr from wor

Crokor bought at exactly tho wrong

A point that Is causlntr much Ulk amonir tie
rolfers who play at the opon tournaraonts is the
prnetlco of tho caddlos in marklwr out tho holes
by piscina tholr feet on each side of the rim. It
Is a wholly unjustlflablo habit that has urom
to bo a nuisance. As ho removes tbe disk, It Is
rlitht and proper for the caddlo to stand bock of
the hole to ulvo tho lino, but It Is vrrontr to havo
hlra place his feet at tbe brim for a short put
Ono result Is that, whon thers Is a law "el
of playore, tho boy's feet msJm dlstinot
mounds around the holes, so that fins
putting Is nn Impossibility. On a wet day. troth
as on elcotlon day, at SL Andrew's the soft turf
is forced up around tbo holes much moro than
on a dry day. when the earth Is hard. It was on
this account tliut Armstrong: took three puts to
holoout on tho fourteenth irrcen In his match
with Bands, nnd thereby lost the load. It cannot
Iio shown that the habit Is of any real assistance
to tho puttor. The players who ore opposed to
it wish the U. 8. aA.Vo framo a special rule
forbidding tho practice. .. . .. .
Another matter that deserves mention is that,
whllo It is now permissible to sole tbo club on

Sluggish Liver. I
Why It Depresses the Spirits and Injures the Health. I
No ono is ovor troubled with a derangotl lircr a3 long as thoro ia a M
good freo flow of bilo. Tho first symptoms of a disordorad livar aro &
droTrsinosa, lethargy, and a ponoral foaling of apathy, and thosa aro M.
frequently acoompauioJ by pains botwean tha shoulder blades and ia n$
tho small of the baok, tho fluttorin, of specks boforo tho oyos, bilious M
and sick hoadaclios, with or without nausoa. If this stato is not ro M
lieved tho moro serious symptoms of jaundice, whioh frequently end
by tho formation of gall-stones, sot in. Jaundice can only occur when J
tho bilo ducts aro clogqod up ; that is, when tho bilo becomes thick- v
ened and its flow rotardod in consequence, as then tho bilo, instead of J
flowing frooly and passing out of tho body, turns back and gets into ff
the blood, which in consequence becomes poisoned, honco tlio jaun- Jm
diced or yellowish condition of tho skiu. If this state is not speedily n
remedied, the inaction of tho liver causes tho formation of urio and 3
other acids, grarol in tho kidneys, etc. A general derangement of tho
system now ensues, which is almost invariably accompaniod by tho
groat onemy of mankind, "Biliousness," and particularly bilious vom- '4
iting and flatulence, tho latter being caused by a congestion of the
lower bowel. Bilious or sick hoadncho is caused mostly by indigos-
tion, and is usually followed by doprossiou of Bpirts, melancholia ?
(caused by thickened " black bilo "), oausing au enervating influenoo
upon tho nervous system. &.
The most successful treatment to remedy thoso ovils ha3 hitherto "S
been a course of treatment of some of tho famous European mineral
springs, where tho patient was compelled to go, at groat oxponso and
still greater loss of valuable time. -f
These advantages may now be, however, onjoyed by any one, with- '
out leaving homo, and at a merely nominal oxponso, by a course of
Kutnow'a Improved Effervescent Powder. ,,
In jaundice, Kutnow's Powder renders tho bilo more fluid, thus "i
helping its flow ; while tho use of it prevents any tendency to gall- ?
stones, and at once removes biliousness. In coustipation it acts ns a ,1
natural stimulant to the bowel, causing incroasod excretion from tha
entire alimontary tract. Thus tho foicos aro notallowod to accumulato ,1
in tho lower bowel, thero to undergo, in tho course of decomposition,
thn various chantres. nroducts of which, boincr absorbed into thn S
system, give rise to so many unpleasant symptoms. if'
In acid dyspepsia and hromorrhoids its value is at onoo seen. For
thoso reasons Kutnow's Powder is sure to bo a welcome help to
digestion by supplying in a pleasant form a preparation whioh will
contributo to tho cure of many stomachic ailmonts.
Kutnow's Powder is not only an excellent aperient, but it also
exorcises a beneficial effoot on tho livor, gall, bladder, kidnoys and
stomach. Tho flavor is unobjectionable, and thus it is roadily taken j,
by women and children. It has also boon successfully proscribed in ,s
diabetes, and for tho correction of gouty and rhoumatio condition or
predisposition thereto.
"Its advantages," says a medical correspondent, "appear to arise,
from its possessing tho power to eliminato from the body tho excess of
bilo and acids, thoroby purifying tho blood and strengthening tho
genoral tone by Improving tho assimilative processes of the dobilitatetl
system. Consequently it has a salutary effect in cases of hypochon
driasis associated with low spirits and genoral depression."
For tho abovo reasons Kutnow's Powdor has boon employed, untler
tho highest modioal authority, for patients loading sedentary lives and
thoso suffering from abnormal accumulations of fat. Ladies of corpu
lent habit will in particular find it a pleasant and effective remedy.
WHAT THE MEDICAL JOURNALS SAY:
Thelionilon Lancet of March 7, 1801, nays:
" Tho medicinal rlrtues of tho well-known Mineral Waters ilupend on tho presence
of mineral salts, which analysis has shown to consist largely of the iiilphates of soda,
and potash, in addition to small quantities of carbonato of llmo, with which occur traces
of tho rarer salti of lithium and ntronf la. The water Is accordingly reputed to bo useful
In Rheumatism, Gout, and Kldnoy disorders. KUTNOW'S i-frerrpscont POWDKH Is
stated to contain, amongst other Ingredients, tlio active principle of the salt obtained
direct from tha mineral water. However this may be, otir analysis conflrmed the pres
ence of tho chief constituents referred to. Tho Powder Is beautifully cloan and whlto,
and is ovidently prepared with care, while the ta.sto ot the efforvosolns solution Is by no
means dlsapreeable."
The RrltlnH Moil leal Journal says:
" Messrs. Kutnow & Co. showed an improved KITorvesccnt Powder, decidedly moro
palatable than the ordinary Mineral Salts, evaporated at tho springs, ot which It repro
duces the therapeutic effects, while effectually covering the nauseous taste and objec
tionable bitter flavor of sulphate of soda. It Is guntlo, effervescent, and U a very
efficient and Bgrecablo aperient."
