WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-RepubU- can members of the ways and means committee were tn conference this afternoon on the subject of Cuban reciprocity. The conference went over without action unttl tomorrow. The proposition brought forward, by Represntatlve Long, of Kansas, au thorises the president when Cuba was prepared to grant 40 per cent on all products of the island coming to the I'nited States.

It Astoria' Puwh Club Wants Used as a Headquarters for Soldiers. A determined effort is to be made locally to Induce the War Department to utilize Fort Stevens as a post for for the mobilisation of troops, and Secretary Lyman, of the Push Club, haa been instructed to communicate regarding the matter with Senator Mitchell. Several months ago this matter was brought to the attention of the commercial bodies of this city, but before any definite results had been obtained the effort was given up. It Is now thought that persistent demand will accomplish the desired end, and that Senator MHcbell will be able to induce the War Department to recognise Fort Stevens In a more general manner. In addressing the Push Club on the matter, H. G. Van Dusen said: "I am satisfied we can Induce the War De partment to establish military head quarters at the fort If we persist In our efforts. Personally, I believe hi kicking. Those of us who are easily satisfied seldom get aa much ss we are entitled to, and the only way to induce the government to act Is to keep constantly at it. Fort Stevens offer the very best advantages as the headquarters of large bodies of troops, , and. while the War Department is thoroughly acquainted with the situ ation. It is the place of the com mercial bodies of this city to urge ac tion, .y '' "Fort Stevens Is particularly well adapted to the mobilization of troops on account of Its healthfulness. The Presidio cannot be compared with it Hhere the climate Is always mild, and the bleak winds that sweep the Pre Here the climate ts always mild, and not prevail at (Fort Stevens. What Is more, Stevens offers unsurpassed facilities for the transportation of troops, who could be marched from their quarters aboard a transport without the slightest difficulty. Of course, the officers would much pre fer residence nearer a larger city, but Portland Is not far distant, the trip requiring only four hours. Senator Mitchell should be urged Do Impress upon the department the advantages offered at the fort." The government preserves on which the fort is built contains between 600 and 800 acres. However,, the building of the . Jetty caused more than 1000 acres of land to be artificially provid ed, so there Is ample room at Stevens for all the troops that ihe department might wish to mobollse there. This land created by the Jetty can be re claimed at slight expense merely by seeding it Property in the vicinity of the fort could be bought at a very low figure, so no objection could be waged on this score. It is pointed out that Inland forts are being abandoned by the government and troops being removed to the coast It is felt here that Oregon should not be overlooked in this matter, as has been done In the transport business, for which Portland made euch a strong bid, and the com mercial bodies feel tbey can rely upon the support of all the other communi ties of the state. There is only one drawback at Ste vens, and that is lack of water. At present the water supply comes from wells and is most unsatisfactory. Some time ago the department asked the city to submit figures for a supply or water and a most reasonable rate was made- The water commission agreed to permit the government to lay a separate main from the reser voir, or else that it would permit con nection to be made to the city limits. the government to lay pipes from the fort to Smith Point The Mea of re ceiving water from Astoria was aband oned at that rime, because it u-. thought the well system would prove successful. The rate made by the wa ter commission Is said to have been less than one-half that charged by the company which furnish water at the Presidio. It is understood that the department w'll not cause more troops to be sta tioned at Stevens until the water prob lem Is solved. An adequate suddIv can be obtained from the Lewis and Clark river, at a cost, k is km nt not to exceed $50,000. Private compa nies have volunteered to provide a supply, but the government objects to Warren ton. Flavel and New Astoria being supplied from the mains which, would run to the fort It Is believed here that the department already has planned for a water system. That Fort Stevens, which has cost to date about $1,500,000, is intended for something more than a fortification is evident from the Jealous manner in which encroachments on the preserve are prevented. Persons hn hav. tried to build fish traps have been summarily ordered off the preserve, and It is believed extensive Improve ments are contemplated. SAYS BOERS ARE DEMORALIZED.
