Special Dispatch to the Post-Intelligencer,
Washington. Nov. 21.—The report of
th» secretary of war contain* the follow
ing in reference to the ship canal to con
nect Lake* Washington and Union with
the Sound:
"The work of securing the right-of-way
for the canal free of cost to the govern
ment is in progress. The dimensions of
the canal as proposed by the board of en
ginetrs constituted under the provisions
of the river and harbor act of September
l'j. ISUo. which were based upon the tdze
of merchant vessels then employed, are
not deemed sufficient to accommodate ves
sels since built and to be built In the near
future. It Is thought to be desirable and
important that an increase in the size of
the locks and depth of channel in the
canal sufficient to accommodate commerce
and vessels of the United States nivy
should be made, and the secretary of the
. n ivy has accordingly been requested to
furnish information as to the depth and
width that would be required to afford
accommodation to the vessels of the navy
i and permit thtlr passage between the
Sound and the Lakes, in order that the data
may be at hand and available for consid
eration when the detailed plans for the
work of construction are being prepared.
The right-of-way now in progress of pro
curement will, it is believed, permit the
increase of dimensions, but should addl
; tional right-of-way be found necessary,
' the same could probably be secured free
of cost to the government.
"As the acceptance by the secretary of
war of the right-of-way must precede the
preparations of detailed plans, it will yet
be some time before active operations of
construction can be commenced.
"I cannot too strongly recommend the
construction of this canal. Lake Warn
ing ton is a large sheet of fresh w it- r
with excellent banks. It is very deep and.
: of course, entirely free from tides. The
necessity on that great coast of fresh
water where sea-going vessels can be re-
P' l red and freed from barnacles is most
apparent."

the aimi?sic>n of suitable cases among the
veterans of the late war. .
In the opinion of the secretary an In
crease in the engineer corps ir oncers and
In enlisted m«»n is indispensable. He
points to the Immediate extent and value
of the work new in the hands of the corps
and contends that It cou'd better be super
vised ard improved In quantity and quality
by the assignment of more officers, whieh
Is now impossible.
Secretary Alger transmits withcut reduc
tion the estimate of the chief of ensm- .-rs
for the next Sscal year, amounting to «?.-
TiS. 16t'. m re than double the appropria
tions for* the current year. He says these
are largely in ex ess of what thty should
be at a time when the demands c-n the
treasury are as srtat as now. Therefore he
recommends a Urge reduction. In justice
to the chief of the engineers Secretary Al
ger says that these estimates were made
by his own direction, that the facts might
be placed before congress, showing what
the expenditures would be were all the re
quirements of the river and harbor laws
complied with, and he cites the fact that
the outstanding continuous contracts f»r
river and harbor work will require an ex
penditure of over sl7.oQo,«"*j for the next
fiscal year.
Secretary Alger especially commends for
patriotism, generosity and seal Col. Buf
fington and Capt. Crosier, the inventors of
the disappearing gun carriage, who gener
ously donated the invention to the govern
ment.
The report closes with the renewal of the
recommendation that provision be made
for the erection in Washington of Gen.
Grant's monument. The estimates for the
next fiscal year aggregate 156.255.445. as
aralnst 162.K32.41T. the amount of appropri
ations for the current year. The principal
items of increase are in rivers and harbors,
where the estimate is 148.728,160. as agiinst
the appropriation of $23 275.02£: fortifica
tions and sea coast defenses. $13,378,571, as
aga.nst $9,517,111: and military posts parks
and cemeteries. $2 SSS,©?. against SW<9.!S67.
TWO MOTOR MEX KILLED.
Head-On Collision of Electric Cars la

BALTIMORE. Nov. 21.—Because Theo
dore Ft. Merrick, a motorman in the em
ploy of the Baltimore & Northern rail
way, disobeyed orders, officers of that road

!isi->n this morning on the line, in which
Merrick was almost instantly killed and
W.lham M Horner, a motorman on the
car which was going in the opposite direc
tion. received injuries from which he died

The two conductors and passengers
on both cars were more or less injured,
although the injuries of none of them
are supposed to be dangerous.
Those most seriously injured are: Con
ductor Thomas Ewing. aged X* years, and
Charles Snowden, colored, aged 20 years.
Ewing Is suffering from a slight concus
sion of the brain and is badly bruised on
the head, face and body. Snowden's cheek

PITTSIU'RG. Nov. 21.—Pittsburg has,
perhaps, never be<n the scene of a more
notable religious gathering than the Meth
odist Episcopal church congress which be
gan a six days' session at Christ's church
this morning. In conception, purpose and
treatment It is unique in ecclesiastical an
nals, and marks an epoch in religious his
tory.
The call for the congress, which was
signed by Bishops Vincent, Minde and Fitz
gerald. and many promineut Methodist ed
ucators. siys: ,
"The congress does not propose to invite
or favor destructive criticism of exist in#
Institution?, but simply to bring out from
p rions rej rsentlng different phases of
Intellectual activity a frank expression as
to whether the churr-h can meet, any more
fully than it doe?, the demands of our
t!m>s. and if so, tvhere-n its activities may
be modified < r directed to advantage. The
congre-s wl'l n. t concern ItXelf with ques

biaring upon the relations of the church
to the though! and life nf the people, as
affected by current scientific and literary
teachings. The congress will iim to se

HAVANA (via Key West. Ft a.). Nov. 51.
—La Lucha. in a recently published edito
rial expresses doubt as to the sincerity of
the friendship for Spain professed by the
American government, and says:
"If the American government cannot pre
vent the sailing from the ports of that
country of expeditions in aid of ihe insur
gents and does not respond in other ways
to Spain's efforts to come to lavorable
terms, it is useless for Spain t,o maintain
friendly relations with America."
Kepui u from Mataiizas say that the
Conservatives, having become enraged at
the change in the government's poli« y. are
disturbing public order. Ex-Mayor Crespo
initiated the disorderly by publicly
giving offense to Scnor Armas, the new
civil governor of the province. The chief
of police followed Senor Crespo's lead, by
endeavoring to prevent aid being given to
the suffering reconcentrados by newspaper
correspondents and others. Of the recon
centrados in Matanxas. numbering more
than 50.000. seventy-nine died in two Jays,
t&lrty-six. perishing from hunger. Yester
day seventeen deaths were reported, a
large proportion of which were the result
of starvation.
In Jaruico about 65 per cent, of the
deaths are catised by starvation, and the
same Is true of many other towns. Ow ing
to the lack of proper clothing and of
blankets, the situation of the reconcentra
doa is b-.coming worse as the winter sea
son approaches, dt*pite the efforts made to
relieve them. Horrible episodes are of
daily occurrence among the reconc< ntra
dos. After lying for three days ui>on the
sidewalk in front of a house In Matanxas,
a poor negro woman, who was suffering
terribly and was unable to move, was car
ried away by a flood cau.sed by a heavy
fall of rain. A short time afterwards her
dead body was discovered a few blocks
a way, and at List report was still lying in
th« gutter. A cab driver who was carry
ing a sick man to a hospital, observed that
his passenger was dying, dragged him
from his cab. leaving him on the curb
stone. here he finally died. Cases simi
lar to these are of frequent occurrence.
R> jiorts from Candflaria say that a man
who was suffering from smallpox was
driv: n by the authorities into the insurgent
camp at Cojadaj Neg« o, Pinar del Rio
province, where threats were made to hang
the man if he was not taken away.
On Wednesday evening the remaining
cane fields on the plantation Portugalete,
owned by Dr. Manuel Galvo, were de
stroy* d by fire.
Marshal Bianco has appointed thirty
four new employes at the custom house.
Of these five are native Cubans and the
remainder Spaniards and Reformists. The
Autonomies are greatly disgusted by
thoir appointments. Sixty jn*rsons em
ploye d abr*ut the docks and suft others in
various parts of the island, have joined
the revolutionists, and a number of pris
oners at Guinea who were pardoned under
the recent proclamation, havs returned to
rae insurgents.

Gen. H'rn.-ndeas Ve'asoo confirms the
statement that the insurgents in Pinar d»l

nition. Seventy of Gen. Veiasco's men
have arrived at Pinar d<"l Rio, suffering
from wounds revived in recent engage
ments
The financial situation of the military
administration is bad. The soldi »rs have
not been p.)id -n eight months. There is

Knglltb Comment.
LONDON. Nov. 21.—'The Iterltn corre
spondent of the Daily Chronicle *ays:
Count Goluehowskl's statement with ref
erence to the struggle with America has
excited the most widespread interest here.
It is believed that before he made public
so remarkable an enunciation of policy he
had the consent of the other powers, with
the exception of England, and spoke as the
mouthpiece of those governments.
The Vienna correspondent of the Daily
Chronicle says: "Count Ooluchowskl'a ap
peal to Europe, to unite against the trans
oceanic countries Is regarded rather as a
platonlc desire than as a concrete pro
gramme. Thus fsr no practical attempt
In that direction is intended; at least, not
by Austria."
