The government forbids the placing of tlm system In other than buildings which will Insure permanency. The present hnlMing at tho forrlon occupied by 1 ho postofflco la regarded a a tem porary structure, and the only location suitable will he in tho Ferry building. The harbor commissioners hare boon applied U for apneo and If they gf'nt tho request the work will begin Imme diately. About 00 M)r cent of the local mall passes through the Ferry postofflco, and when that atation, with its force of clerks, In t ran f erred U tho new build ing at Heventh and Mission, the postal secrvlco of this city Is going to be greatly hamplmrnd.

The findings of the iKinrd of inquiry that Investigat ed tho Bennington disaster aro expect ed to be given out today, fin Ice tho Itoilers f the gunboat exploded, killing and wounding no many of the crew, an Investigation has ttcen going on to determine tho condition of engines and bollera on other shipa of the navy. The results hnvo Iteen surprising. Homo discoveries were mnde, and some rather unplennnnt onw. Heveral vessels hnve beta ordered to the navy yard for repairs to their engine room equipment. The names oi these vessels are withheld at the Navy department. It may bo said, though, on the best authority, thnt the conditions which have so far been revealed will in all probability lestilt in some decided changes of tho naval regulations realtlng to the duties of deck and engine room officers. Tho announcement of the shipa whoee bollera have been discovered to be de fective and of the changee to bo made in the regulationi may be niado long after tho Itennlngton figure have been published. Secretary Ilonnaparte ia a believer in legitimate publicity and thinks tho department should take the initiative in furnishing to the press any informntlon ttiat should projierly be made public. NEW DOCK ON THE SOUND. Navy Department Prafert It There In stead of Mare Island. Washington. Aug. 21. It Is believed from the attitude of an official of tho i Navy department that congress will be asked next winter to make an appropri ation for a now drydock on Facet nound. The naval authorities are unanimous in declaring that there is Immediate need for better docking fa cilities on tho Pacific coast, and aro equally unanimous in believing it un wise to build such a dock at the Mare Island navy yard, because of the bad channel approaches If another dock Is authorised, it is preferied that it be located at Dremer ton, on tho sound. The only thing to check this recommendation will bo ad verse nctiou by tho cabinet, which may deem it inadequate, In view of tho con dition of tho treasury, to seek money for the new dock at this time.

Ida M.TmbcM'a Description of th Oil Klnu'a 1'liynloKiionir. Httnly the photograph, U10 last taken of Mr. Rockefeller, study George Vnrl- an a powerful sketch from life made In 1003, nnd say If it be worth while to bo the richest man In the world at tho cost these portraits show, writ Ida M. Tarbell in Mct'lure'a for Au gust. Concentration, crnftln, cruelty, nnd something Indetlnably re pulsive arc In them. The photograph reveals nothing more. Mr. Varlan'a joiin u. nocKcrEtxr.iu sketch la vnstly mora Interesting for It suggests, besides, both power and pathos nnd no one can look long on Mr. Rockefeller without feeling theso qualities. Tho Impression ho makes 011 ono who sees him for tho first time Is overwhelming. Ilrought face to face with Mr. Rockefeller unexpected ly, nnd not knowing him, tho writer's immediate thought was, "This la the old os t man in tho world a living mummy," Hut there Is no sonso of feebleness with tho sense of age; In; deed there la 0110 of terrific power. The disease which In the last throe or four years has swept Mr. Rockefeller' head bare of hair, stripped nwny even eyelashes nnd eyebrow, bait rovoalod nil the strength of his great head. Mr. Itockefellor la a big man, not over tall but largo with ivowerful shoulders nnd a uoek like that of n bull. Ills head la wide nnd deep and disproportionate ly high, with curious bump made more conspicuous by the tightly drown, dry, naked skin. Tl;e in tor oat of tho big face lies In tho eyes and mouth. Kyes more useful for a Minn of Mr. Rockefeller's practice could hnrdly be conceived. They nro small nnd Intent nnd steady, and they nro as expressionless as it wnll. They see ev erything nnd reveal nothing. It Is not n shifty eye not a cruel or leering one. It Is something vnstly more to be feared n blank eye, looking through nud through things, nnd telling noth ing of what they found on the wny. Hut If tlio eyes nay nothing the mouth tells much, Its former iimb!; tho full mustncho Mr. Rockefeller baa nlwnys worn, Is now completely gone. Indeed tho greatest loss Mr. Rockefel ler Hiistnlncd when his hair wont wits thnt It revealed lilt mouth. It la only n silt tho lips nro quite lost, as If by eternal grinding together of the teeth teeth sot on something ho would have. It la at onco tho crudest fen turo of his face this mouth tho crudest nnd U10 most pathetic, for tho hard, closo-sot Imo slants downward at tho corners, giving n look of ago nnd sadness, Tho downwnnl droop la out phasixed by deep vertical furrows run- K& M' Ml 1 1t imwwo j 'wmfc&m BY JAPANESE GUNS. nlng from each aide of bin nose. Mr. Rockefeller may have tn.ido himself the richest man In tho world, but he has paid. Nothing but paying ever ploughn such Hues in a man's face, ever seta his lips to such a melancholy angle. VILLAGES ARE TO VANISH. Three Hamlet to He Obliterated to In crease Sew York' Water (Supply. Three more of tho Croton vnlley'a most picturesque villages are soon to bo obliterated to meet the ever-Increasing demand of New York City for wa ter. The hamlets doomed by tho wa tershed authorities aro Croton Falls, Cross River and a part of the town of Homers. The houses, churches, stores, nhops and even tho cemeteries are to be blotted out, leaving only tho bare land, which will be flooded wltb wa ter, making two lakes, each about four miles long. Tho first of the villager to go will be Cross IUver, where New York lias begun the erection of an Im mense darn to cost $3,000,000, one of the busiest manufacturing centers of Westchester County. It has a popula tion of COO, with a postoillco, thrco churches, two schools, n cemetery anil a half dozen stores nnd shops. Tho place was founded In revolution ary times and was famous generations ago for its paper manufactories. Tho people will be paid for their property at "market value," but this will hard ly compensate them for tho loss of their homes and tho breaking up of their associations. About 700 persons In the three con demned towns will lose their homes and business, and most of them will bo compelled to go out In tho world and begin life over among strangers. In the case of the old people the cir cumstances aro pathetic, and many sad scenes are expected when tho time ar rives for them to bid farewell to tho homes nnd neighbors they have known sin co childhood.
